Speaker 1: nine seven and we'll take your calls throughout the show.

18
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: Let's start first with Jerry Jones and his time this

19
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: morning with one h five dout three the fan. Really

20
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: not anything that was that was terribly enlightening during that call,

21
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: but there are a couple of things I thought were

22
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: worth discussing. He did mention he's asked specifically about about

23
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: Dak and Dak's health and whether he's completely healthy, and

24
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: we've talked about it on the show that we didn't

25
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: necessarily think Dak was playing at his best. And Jerry

26
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: said something that I thought was really interesting. And it

27
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: always is a It's kind of a cautionary tell for

28
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 1: me because it's easy when you see an errand throw

29
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: to always assume the quarterback is off. But I think

30
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: what Jerry dial was remind all of us that the

31
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: receivers in this instance, in a lot of these instances,

32
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: it could be the receiver that's not in the right place.

33
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: What were your thoughts about his comment. Yeah, I think

34
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: that's that's the comment that's going to make the rounds

35
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: in this round of the Jerry news cycle. I guess

36
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people, and I think the way that

37
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: he worded it, I don't think you can disagree, like

38
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: kind of through the receivers under the bus. Like he

39
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: didn't say the communication has been off, Dak and his

40
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: receivers need to get on the same page. He was like,

41
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: the receivers need to run he was. I think the

42
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: direct quote is they need to run crisper routes, like

43
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,839
Speaker 1: they need to do a better job running routes being

44
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: where Dak wants them to be. So again, it's not

45
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: that's not a very balanced critique. That's putting a lot

46
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 1: of blame on the receivers as opposed to the quarterback.

47
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: But I think we've been saying that for a few weeks.

48
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: Is part of this whole thing is that the communication

49
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: between Dak and his receivers has been off. Now maybe

50
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: that's more on the receivers than Dak. Who really knows

51
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: unless you're in those meetings, But I agree that's that

52
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: they've been sloppy. The I mean, the perfect example that

53
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: I've taught about a lot already as the fourth and

54
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 1: two in New Orleans. Schemed it up as beautifully as

55
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: you could want. CD walks into the end zone if

56
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: it's a complete pass, and for whatever reason, Dak and

57
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: CD were not on the same page about where that

58
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: ball was supposed to be, and that's kind of been

59
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: emblematic of a lot of their struggles. I don't know,

60
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know who's running the wrong route

61
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: or you know, the pass being right or wrong. I mean,

62
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 1: I know that he's paid one hundred and forty million

63
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: dollars or one hundred and sixty million dollars for DAK,

64
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: So you know he's gonna he's gonna definitely defend DAK

65
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: without a doubt there, and so you know, I I

66
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: but who knows it? Like you said that play right there?

67
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: I mean I look at it. I mean I put

68
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: that on DAC. But but it could be he could

69
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: CD could be completely in the wrong spot or didn't

70
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: have it, didn't turn the right way. So you know,

71
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: it's hard to ever know that. That's why he's great.

72
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes gonna be tricky because you just don't know what

73
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: the assignment is. I mean, we watch the games. We

74
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: know Dak's not playing great. I mean not not as

75
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: great as we've seen. We've seen him play better than well.

76
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: I think that's the part where I start accounting the

77
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: receiver every single time. Well, what I don't know is

78
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: over these last three weeks, he's been dealing with receivers

79
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: that are not his primary receivers in roles, maybe that

80
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: they aren't accustomed to being in. It's very different when

81
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: you're the third guy. And now you're the second guy,

82
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: or whatever the case might be there there is that

83
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: to me sounds a lot more plausible then all of

84
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: a sudden Dak has fallen off. It seems more plausible

85
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: to me that maybe it is a it is a

86
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: communication issue. And as we know, if you watch the game,

87
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: a lot of time, the ball comes out of quarterbacks

88
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: hands as the receiver's making a cut, or before they

89
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: even make the break sometimes, And and that to me,

90
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 1: if the timing is off, if a guy is one

91
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: or two yards different than where they're supposed to be,

92
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: it's going to be an incompletion. That seems more plausible.

93
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: It's plausible to me, knowing what they're dealing with these

94
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: last few weeks at receiver, than all of a sudden

95
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: Dak's having this great season and then all of a

96
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,119
Speaker 1: sudden he's not. Yeah, I mean, all of these things

97
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: are true. That's and it makes maybe it makes for

98
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: boring radio, but that's what I always say, is that's

99
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: what I always say, is like these it's it's more

100
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: than just one thing or the other. And I kind

101
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: of laugh. There's an irony to the thought that like, well,

102
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: Dad doesn't have his guys the starters are hurt, and

103
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: that's totally true. I said this this morning. For all

104
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: we talk about the pass rush and the guys that

105
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: they haven't had available, Dak hasn't had his primary three

106
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: receivers available for more than a game really this year,

107
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: like right when Gallup was ready to come back. That's

108
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: when Amari Cooper got COVID etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. But but

109
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: then at the same time, why do we spend all

110
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: that time talking about the Dak yard. I mean that

111
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 1: was the point, is that we've gotten time on task

112
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: with everybody. Cedric Wilson and Noel Brown have been in

113
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: the lab just as much as everybody else, So that

114
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: feels like a convenient excuse to fall back on when

115
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: things aren't going your way. Having said that, I do

116
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: think I think there's something to that. I think it's

117
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: I think it's both. Um. I've I've said this a

118
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: few times too. Go watch the New Orleans game. Go

119
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: look at how many times Ceedee Lamb didn't seem like

120
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: he knew what the call was or what the alignment was.

121
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: I mean, that was that happened five times on Thursday night?

122
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: Is that Dak or is that lamb. Maybe it's a

123
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: little bit of both. Um so that I mean, I'll

124
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: cross the board. I think they all just need to

125
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: get on the same page. Yeah, I mean, this is

126
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if this happens every year about this,

127
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: this little lull here or it's not a lull, but

128
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 1: it's like right here at the end of November. I mean,

129
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: there's just there's some craziness to the schedules and everything.

130
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: I mean, like if they were on the same page

131
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: through everything that that happened, then they would never practice.

132
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: You don't need to practice if you if you were

133
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: just completely fine with the fact that you, oh, now

134
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 1: you're virtual. Now you're not. Now you lose your head, coach,

135
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: now you you you're doing this. Oh, Terrence Steel's the starter.

136
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I was just writing the story on the

137
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: offensive line and it's like, oh my god, like, what

138
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: the hell's going on going on at right tackle? Well,

139
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: it's been five games, but then Collins came back, but

140
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: then he didn't start because then Terren Steele had six

141
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 1: games and he was still playing well. But then Tyrean

142
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: got hurt, so he slid over here. But then he

143
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: came back and he took a Lyle's spot again, but

144
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: then he had COVID and then he left, and now

145
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: he's back, and now they're both gonna play. I mean

146
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: that's just one position. I mean that's happening a lot.

147
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: And so there there nothing's been steady on the receivers

148
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: from the old line for Dak's calf, Zeke's in and out.

149
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: He's banged up. I mean, so I'm not it's not excuses.

150
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: That's the fact. I just laid it all out there.

151
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: If you call that excuse, that's fine. But this team

152
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: hasn't you know, they're not like clicking on all cylinders.

153
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: That that's one of the reasons why. Yeah, all right,

154
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: let's talk about the right tackle position. This is another

155
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: thing that Jerry talked about when he was on with

156
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: Sean and rj um. He said that this was interesting.

157
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: They asked him a question, who's gonna start, bluntly, who's

158
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: gonna start a right tackle? He said, well, both of

159
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: them will play, and both of them will play a lot.

160
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: And here was the part that was interesting to me.

161
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: He said, you know, they if they decided to go

162
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: with the big package to run, you know, we could

163
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: we could maybe see you know, some of that and

164
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: maybe start thinking, you know, is this kind of a

165
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: replacement for what they were doing with McGovern now that

166
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: they have Connor Williams in that role. We saw some

167
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: of Connor Williams work back there in the backfield. It

168
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: wasn't great. I think as he ran through the whole

169
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: he kind of missed a guy or didn't even figure

170
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: out where he was supposed to be going who were

171
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: supposed to block. If he had the ball, maybe he

172
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: would have scored. I don't know, But that all being said,

173
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: it does make me wonder if they say, hey, we

174
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: got Steele and Lyle, they are both better options if

175
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna have an additional offensive lineman on the field,

176
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 1: then putting Connor Williams out there, what do you guys think? Well,

177
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: I think you know, Jerry has said this some things

178
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 1: before about who's gonna start, and you could just tell

179
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: it didn't help. Then Mike McCarthy didn't really love it. Yeah,

180
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: I think Mike McCarthy would rather him just say who

181
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: was gonna start than to say that they might do

182
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: both jumbo package out there and let him be the

183
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: tied end. But you know, it's also about the matchups too. Now,

184
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: Washington is kind of like the cow Boys. I mean,

185
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: they've lost both of their defensive ends, but one might

186
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: be well Sweat. Maybe I thought I saw somewhere the

187
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: Sweat might be back sweet, but that was these were

188
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: fans talking, So I don't know if that's well. I mean,

189
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: you know, that's a big deal because he's Reggie White

190
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,599
Speaker 1: when he plays against the Cowboys, like, honestly, he's a

191
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: really like I know that that the other guy is

192
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 1: like the all time you know, at whatever, But Manta

193
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 1: Sweat if you watched him play, he's just as disruptive.

194
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: He is a problem. He was a killer for the Cowboys,

195
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: but not just against the Cowboys, just in general. He's

196
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: a really good player. You know. I asked Kellen Moore

197
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: yesterday in the conference call, and he basically was just like, well,

198
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: nothing from last year matters because nobody was playing in

199
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: those games. You know, they didn't have like, oh, they

200
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: didn't have Tying, they didn't have Zack Martin for all

201
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 1: but one. They didn't have Zach Martin at guard he

202
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: played one series of tackle. They didn't have Dak in

203
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: any of those games. And then Washington has some different

204
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: group as well. But I mean, they're still playing really

205
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: well Washington is so, Um, I just think it might

206
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: be a matchup thing to put you know, Steele or Collins.

207
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: I don't know who's gonna start, honestly. Um, you know,

208
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: it sounded like the last time they were both healthy,

209
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: Steel started right Kansas City. Yeah, but then Collins played

210
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 1: pretty well against the against the Saints. And but it's

211
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 1: not like you can't lose your job for being out

212
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 1: for other reasons, Like that's how it happens, ended up

213
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: losing his job. So you know, it is what it is. Yeah,

214
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not that much better than each other

215
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: if they were then. And Jerry said that, he said,

216
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: there the same player, And I was like, that's an

217
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: interesting He didn't say that. You don't think that's what

218
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: he said. No, no, no, no, I thought that, And

219
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: I was actually transgressed. I don't think he said that.

220
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: What he said, they're the same player, whether they start

221
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: or they come into the difference. I thought you were

222
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: saying that they're the same guy, like they're like he's

223
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: great at a sixty three, he's no. But I'm saying

224
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: the way you just said that, what's the difference between

225
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 1: the two. Tell me the difference. I think what he

226
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: was saying was they're both the same if they start

227
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: or they don't, they both can come in and be

228
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: the same player. Right, but that's what I'm saying. That

229
00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: means they can play to the same level. Does that

230
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: I mean that they're the same. Difference Okay, no, tell me,

231
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: I mean I thought you were. He said, they're the

232
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:10,079
Speaker 1: same player. Now now obviously they are graded very similar,

233
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 1: or that we wouldn't be in this situation. He said that,

234
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 1: and he kind of paused, and then he kept talking.

235
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: What he was saying was that both Steele and Collins

236
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: played exactly the same, whether they start or they come

237
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: in as a backup. Right, Okay, you're saying, okay, so

238
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: that's what he said. What's the difference between that? It

239
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you and if the three of us

240
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: are confused everyone else Okay. I've heard I've heard from

241
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: people who weren't speaking on the record that they don't

242
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: think the differences or if there is a difference, it's

243
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: not appreciable. And to next point, we wouldn't be having

244
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: this debate if they thought so. Yeah, they can't figure

245
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: it out. But you know what with Tyron situation on

246
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: the other side, he just sticked through it. I mean,

247
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: it's not like it's hurting really anything. I just I

248
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: don't like it. Just well, I mean it we're it's

249
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: like we're talking about two like when you got two

250
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 1: bad quarterbacks and you're like, well, can we go back

251
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: to like kind of I mean, Philly's trying to create

252
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: a controversy up there, like well should Minshu keep going

253
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: and when maybe Hurts needs to come backs? Like, can't

254
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: just make a decision it just and maybe maybe they've

255
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: got some grand plan, like maybe they aren't confused at all,

256
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: but like it just looks like they're afraid to make

257
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: a decision to me, espect like at a position where

258
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: all I've ever heard my whole life is that like

259
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: best five, continuity is important, just stick with a guy

260
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: and go. And that's not what they're doing. Yeah, thats

261
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,839
Speaker 1: crazy part of that. They have the control, sure, but

262
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: we just from week to week and you're right, Steele probably,

263
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 1: I mean Steele would have started in New Orleans if

264
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,719
Speaker 1: he'd been healthy, So put him back in there or

265
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 1: or or whatever, or don't I just what whatever, just

266
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: make it. I'm honest, I'm tired I'm gonna I'm sitting

267
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: in a g seat. I'm gonna say an age thing.

268
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: I'm tired of talking about it. I don't I have

269
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: lost the potential to care because I'm just over it.

270
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: I'm just like whatever, I'm bored. I'm bored by this

271
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: weird tackle. He did say something else that I don't

272
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 1: know if we believe, but he said that contract status

273
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: doesn't matter about anything. The question I would think was

274
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: more about it. It's about the running backs. Yeah, but

275
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 1: it does come he come into play. He said, No,

276
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: if this juncture in the season, you play the best guy. Now,

277
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 1: I believe that I do too. I do too. So

278
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: here's what I would do. Right tackle. I'm starting Lyle.

279
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: That's my guy. He's he's I think he's playing better now.

280
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: I think that him and Zack Martin, they'll they'll be fine. Tyrn,

281
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 1: I never know what's going on with him. Something happened

282
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 1: with Tyran, the option would be steal. So Steal's the

283
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 1: younger guy. Let him. He's going to do a swing

284
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: tackle anyways. Now he plays a little bit of tight end.

285
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: He comes in if he something happens left tackle, he's

286
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 1: the guy because if you make him at right tackle,

287
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: and then something happened, Tyron, you gotta move everything around,

288
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: and they've just said there's not that much of a difference.

289
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: That being said, I'm keeping Lyle at right tackle and

290
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: moving Terrence Steele whatever that's right. I'm I'm with you.

291
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: If I said, if I said, we're going with you know,

292
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: we'll bring back Raw Petiti to play right tackle. At

293
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: this point, you just seem like you'd be like whatever.

294
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: Kurt Bohler's like, anybody just goes no. I think I

295
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: think I like you. I like your plan. I do

296
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: like your no. But I think the proofs in the

297
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: pudding with regard to what he said about the contracts,

298
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: because we wouldn't be having this debate about the tackles

299
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: if if they really went with the contracts right. I

300
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: don't think it's just about the contracts. I think they're

301
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: looking for the guys gonna give them best chance. That

302
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: clause at this point in the year is really important though,

303
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: and again that's what I said yesterday, is like, that's fine.

304
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: Play the guy who thinks you're gonna gonna give you

305
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: the best chance. But you can't deny that it presents

306
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: you with decisions to make in the offseason, if you

307
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: go with Steel over Collins. If let's just forget football

308
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: for a second, let's just say this was gonna just

309
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: be like four guys coming over here. There's just gonna

310
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: be a fistfight. Okay, It's just that's what it was.

311
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: It's not a football game. Elsie's like one of my

312
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: first five picks on the whole team. I'm taking LC.

313
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: He's he's leading the way. Okay, he's the get off

314
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: the bus guy. If we're in a fistfight. Um, playing

315
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: against Washington with the way that they're playing and the

316
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: way that they have to have this that will be

317
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: almost buried if they don't win this game, that's gonna

318
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: be a fist fight. And I want Elc out there.

319
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: Nothing against Terrence Steele. He might throw some hands too,

320
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: He's got some good length and reach, but uh, I

321
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: want We've heard them say it multiple times. He is

322
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: the enforcer on this offensive enforce. So if if that's

323
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: the case, then you're right, and that's this kind of game.

324
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: This is the kind of player you want on the field.

325
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: Let's get a phone call before we take our first pick.

326
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: We got a call from Steven Mississippi. Steve, what up?

327
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,119
Speaker 1: I love the show, and I guess I'm a starstruck.

328
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: Nick said, Derek David, Man, you guys are killing it.

329
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: I love the show, a great content day in and

330
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: day out. Um, I said, I'm just little starstruck. I

331
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: can't believe I'm talking to you guys. But h and

332
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: we got we got a question for you when it's over.

333
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: I got a question for you when you're doing with

334
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: your question. All right, man, all right, well look my question,

335
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: I guess is around really coaching. All right. So I

336
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: just get the vibe there's a different chemistry with this

337
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: team this year. And I guess, um Nick and David,

338
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 1: you guys are a little bit closer, you know the

339
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: locker room, you know, with in the past. I guess

340
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: with with Garrett. You know at this time of year,

341
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: we're in a little rough patch right now. But I mean,

342
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: going into this time of year, I just get the

343
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: different I get a vibe that we're gonna we're gonna

344
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: work through that. I mean with personnel, it seems like

345
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: we put the best players in the field. There's not

346
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: you know, like a a loyalty factor that I felt

347
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: like we had with Garrett, I just want to get

348
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: your input. What what do you guys think um is

349
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: going on there? Do you get the same feeling? Can

350
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: we overcome some of those issues? I feel real good

351
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: going into these league last five games. I just think

352
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna get some guys back, and I think we're

353
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: gonna overcome some of the cities we've had been making

354
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: a good playoff run. I want to get your thoughts

355
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: on that. And Nick, I'll take your question. Hey, you

356
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: said you're from Mississippi. I mean is it is it

357
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:08,120
Speaker 1: the ReBs or is it state? Well, then then you'll

358
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 1: probably get a better answer from date. Then you'll get

359
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: a much better answer now than you would have maybe

360
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: a few seconds ago. I can't thanks for they called

361
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: to appreciate Steve, Thank appreciate it. Hey, yeah, Haile State.

362
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: I mean I can't hold my grudges against the stranger.

363
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, good choice there, Hail State. We've talked about

364
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 1: this before. We that that dream scenario or not hypothetical

365
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: where you're on this date with someone and she's like,

366
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: oh yeah, I love old miss and you're like, oh gosh,

367
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: it wouldn't it wouldn't. It wouldn't get to a date,

368
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: it wouldn't get to a date. Check that out. You'd

369
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 1: already have that figured out. That's an auto swipe left

370
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: in the dating app. I'm not kidding. Y'all are laughing.

371
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: I'm not like Bama Bama. I can make it work.

372
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: Old miss. I'm sorry, I'm out. I'm not doing all right. Um,

373
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: you know we can talk about that off the air, Okay.

374
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: I love a great story there. Um. You know. To

375
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: answer the question, I mean, it's it's not an easy answer.

376
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: You know, those are one of those things that it's chemistry.

377
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: It's up there with leadership and things like that's hard

378
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: to kind of see and qualify. But I'll say this

379
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: based off of last year. I mean, it's chemistry as

380
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 1: a fac you know, COVID is affecting all kinds of chemistry.

381
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's been really tough, and especially when you're

382
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 1: trying to establish a coaching staff and a team and

383
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 1: all of this things. Some teams did it better, and

384
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 1: you know, first year coaches did it better than they

385
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: did last year. I get it, but I agree that

386
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: it does seem a little bit different. It does, and

387
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: I think it's more of the players, I really do.

388
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: I think it's the leadership and the players, and I

389
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 1: think the guys really buy in. It's hard to have leadership.

390
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,239
Speaker 1: I'll say this a set of thousand times. You can

391
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: have guys that get up there and talk and speak

392
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: and all that, they better be damned good players. If

393
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 1: they're not, then it doesn't hold anything. And I think

394
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: they've got them. And I think the thing about that

395
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: is when you look at and you I don't know

396
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: most of you guys have probably watched Sounds of the

397
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: Sideline as a piece we do every week where you

398
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: get a chance to see and hear what players are

399
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: saying on the sideline during games. And one of the

400
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 1: interesting things about that is I've noticed that as the

401
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: season goes on, if the offense is on the field

402
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: and the defense is on the sideline, when the offensive

403
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: guy makes a play, the defensive guys are like, oh,

404
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: that dude's just a beast, Like they believe that. When

405
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: the other unit is on the field, like you have

406
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: the offensive guys talking about Mica and they're like, oh

407
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,479
Speaker 1: my god. So when you have really good players across

408
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: your team, then I think it breeds a certain level

409
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 1: of confidence, not just in your own abilities, but in

410
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: the abilities of the rest of your team, so that

411
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: you know, hey, if we have a little mistake, our

412
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,239
Speaker 1: defense can pick us up on defense. If we can

413
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: get them the ball, they're gonna go score. Like. That's

414
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: what I think the chemistry is is they believe in

415
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: one another. They know they got players, they know they're good.

416
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of them then going out and

417
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: actually executing it. Yeah, and on time. I agree with

418
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: all of that. The chemistry stuff falls by the wayside

419
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: when you're not winning games, Like you go back to

420
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: the sixth game win stream. This team is special, man,

421
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 1: and they do have that type of bond, but we're

422
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: not talking about that when they're trade and wins and

423
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: losses because we're trying to figure out why they're not

424
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: playing well anymore. But I don't think that stuff went away.

425
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: I think yes, I think all of the good players

426
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: on this team, or the vast majority of them at

427
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: least bring something intangible, whether you want to talk about

428
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: Dak or what Amari does as as more of a

429
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: quiet leader but still a leader, Parsons the enthusiasm that

430
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: he's injected into this team. And then on top of that,

431
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I think about twenty nineteen. Remember they started

432
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 1: three and zero and just were never able to recapture that.

433
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: But later on we were like, well, maybe that was

434
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: fool's goal. Those three teams that they beat sucked. I

435
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 1: don't feel that way about that. Like the body of

436
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: work is much more impressive. They've won eight games, they've

437
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 1: got one really really looking impressed of win, which would

438
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: be New England. Yeah, we didn't think it was at

439
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:05,719
Speaker 1: the time. I don't think it was that not at all,

440
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: but it got they played under They like they underwhelmed

441
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: to have to go into overtime against the team. Oh,

442
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: by the way, Jamar Chase, Yeah, you can win Rickie

443
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: of the Year, is it Jamar Chase? Yeah? Throwing three

444
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 1: pass Yeah, And I get it that his fault. Talk

445
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: to this coach about that. If he could throw better,

446
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: he probably would tell him where the win was. Like,

447
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: I get it, No, I understand that, But I think

448
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: Belichick would just wanted to have some fun. I think

449
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: he was trolling Sean McDermot. I mean, they're just gonna

450
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 1: stay kid brother forever. You guys watch that whole game,

451
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: because I could get past that time. I was like,

452
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,239
Speaker 1: I watched Peyton Manning and Eli Man, Yeah, I had

453
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: it on and yes, still last night, but anyway, no,

454
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: they were it was a good last night. Keep to

455
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: Lee lit it up in the third quarter, and Joe

456
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: Buck was funny too. I have to say yeah, and Letterman,

457
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess that's so. But I'm just not

458
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 1: a I'm not a big I don't know. I honestly

459
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: I like them better than I like the No, I

460
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: guess I just if we're being honest, Eli could take

461
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: the night off and I'll just listen to Peyton give

462
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: his thoughts about it because he's He's incredible. Now. I

463
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: think Eli is the funniest part because I don't love

464
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: how I love how he trolls. Peyton plays into it,

465
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: like Eli has bought into this whole thing, and I

466
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 1: think it works. It does respect him for it. It

467
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: does work. And I like Eli Manning like I'm not

468
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 1: one of these cowboy people that hates Eli Manning, but

469
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 1: I just love the way Peyton is type A and

470
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 1: a perfectionist and one of the best to ever do

471
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: what he did, and it pisses him off to watch

472
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: people screw it up, and it's just so funny it is,

473
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: which is also why Eli is so funny too, because

474
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 1: Elis is kind of like, okay, set down to say

475
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 1: it's all right, Like he has the exact opposite person

476
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: the game, the game deciding play. Buffalo's got fourth and

477
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: whatever on like the twenty five. If they, I mean,

478
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: they score, they probably win. If they don't pick up

479
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: the first down, it's over. And Peyton called it. He

480
00:22:58,080 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: said what they were gonna do. He's like, all right,

481
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 1: you're looking for a post over the middle here. You

482
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: gotta bail out of the pocket, like you need to

483
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 1: get but he's like, you gotta get back enough to

484
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: have time to get the throw because they're coming. It's

485
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: zero coverage. He lays it out beautifully. That's exactly what

486
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 1: the Bills do. Alan does like an eight step drop

487
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 1: and it's a double post and they just he throws

488
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: it behind the guy and the Pats bat it down

489
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 1: and Peyton looked like he was about to lose his mind,

490
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: but because he knew exactly what to do and they

491
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: still couldn't get it. But he actually called it. On

492
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: third down, he said, you better get something short here

493
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: to make fourth down manageable. And they did it. They

494
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: threw some almost hail mary to the end zone, which

495
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: Josh Allen is a great athlete by the way, to

496
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: get out of that. But he's basically saying, hey, you

497
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: gotta play a shot ahead here. You gotta get something here.

498
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: Don't fourth and fourteen from the nineteen ain't gonna work.

499
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: You gotta get seven eight yard. That's where Beasley's got

500
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 1: to do a little bit more. And to be quite honest,

501
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 1: they got to use him more. Talking about just them

502
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 1: on that cat. If they had one guest throughout the

503
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: entire thing and the rest of it was Jess, Peyton

504
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: and Eli talking about the game, I would probably in

505
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: a lot more. Sometimes the guest, In my opion, it

506
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: just kind of derails it a bit, just because if

507
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 1: the guest is really entertaining, then with the delay, it's

508
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 1: just it's kind of all over the place. I'd rather

509
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,120
Speaker 1: just listen to Peyton. You know, you ever see them

510
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: just go over the over the guests. It's basically like

511
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 1: and Peyton does it. He just goes right over the guests.

512
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: He's like, uh, you know, like the double zone coverage here, Eli,

513
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: you know, like right, you know, He's just like, all right,

514
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: you're out of this one letterman. We're talking ball and

515
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: that's that's why I love him, because he just he's

516
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: he wants he's so dialed into a game that really

517
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 1: he has no stakes and that he doesn't have time

518
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: to like ask Letterman about his career. So the guests

519
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 1: that are best, so the guests that's just gonna fit

520
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,679
Speaker 1: into that, like Sean Lynch, like give me a drop

521
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: me an f bomb. So I didn't like everyone else did.

522
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: But I didn't like that because he was just he

523
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: just was peppering with questions. It's like, I get it,

524
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: you're prepared, it's awesome, but blah blah. But I thought

525
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 1: Eli I said the funniest thing last night about all

526
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 1: these designed runs and quarterback runs. He goes, I had

527
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 1: two runs my whole career quarterback sneak and kneel down.

528
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: Like that was only two, right, real, since we got

529
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 1: off the rails that I wanted to finish. I just

530
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 1: wanted to finish it. Now he's gonna be killing all

531
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: of us and break right, go ahead. Real. Just the

532
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: point I wanted to make is twenty nineteen, they beat

533
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: Nobody of consequence and then just traded, and every time

534
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: they played a good team they looked terrible. You know,

535
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: they didn't score a touchdown in New England. They couldn't

536
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: score a touchdown against Philly. I just think the body

537
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,919
Speaker 1: of work is so much better this year. Like they

538
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: played Tampa to the brink, even though they looked bad

539
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: doing it. They were in that Chiefs game in the

540
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, so you played close against both Super Bowl teams.

541
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: They've blown out a lot of current wild card content.

542
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: I mean they comfortably beat the Saints, they destroyed the Falcons,

543
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: they destroyed the Eagles. Are these good teams, No, but

544
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,199
Speaker 1: they're teams that are in the playoff race. Like these

545
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: are not the Giants, Dolphins and whatever that other team

546
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: was from twenty I mean they beat up on some

547
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 1: of the worst teams in the league at the beginning

548
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: of that year, washing there we go. I just don't

549
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 1: think that's what this season is. I think if you

550
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: look at the body of work, I trust that they're

551
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: a pretty good team and having a chance to get

552
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: healthier and take some time off, I think they will

553
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: play much better down the stretch. Not saying they go

554
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: five and no, but I think they're going to play

555
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: much better football these last five after the break. I

556
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 1: have a point on something else, I think that we're

557
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 1: not we never talked about, but I think a reason

558
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 1: for the pretty good leadership. All right, we're gonna take

559
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: our first break. Comeback. We'll get that message from Nick.

560
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 1: We'll do it when we come right back. This is

581
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,240

00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,399

00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,479
Speaker 1: They got all kinds of really cool things that are

607
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: going on with music and dancing, and it's just a

608
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: really really great show. Great opportunity to take the kids out,

609
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 1: get the kids out of house to do something fun.

610
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: So check that out Friday or Saturdays through December. Was

611
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 1: at December twenty Just think what was last thro right? Okay, Nick,

612
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: you had a point you were going to make just

613
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: before we went to break. What is your point? Out correct?

614
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: Could be funny stories gets auto corrected to steroids, I

615
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: might go, awesome, don't do that. No, that a little

616
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: bit different. Um, I would think I typed stories way

617
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: more than I type the words steroids. But maybe maybe not.

618
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: I was gonna talk about the fact that you know

619
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: the chemistry. And we always say when we get coaches

620
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: in here that are all he's been a head coach,

621
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 1: he's been a head coach. They've got three that are

622
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: head that have been head coaches, Philbin, John Fossil and

623
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: of course Dan Quinn, and then Ben McAdoo is more

624
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: of a consultant. He's obviously been a head coach for

625
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 1: a little bit. So those guys right there, I think

626
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: what we forget sometimes is did you qu and here

627
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: say did not same? Tan Quinta, Yeah, Quin. So those four,

628
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: you know, it's more than just having like, you know,

629
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 1: knowledge on all the positions. But when you're a head coach,

630
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 1: you've got to be a coach of everybody. And I

631
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 1: hear Dan Quinn talk about the offense sometimes, I hear

632
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore talk about the defense. I hear John Fossil

633
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: talk about all aspects of it. And I think when

634
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: when you see you know these guys are they're getting

635
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: coach that way they're talking, you know, defensive backs, they're

636
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 1: talking about the offense because it's not a competition like that.

637
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: We saw it at training camp that they're not they're

638
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: competing at camp, but they are an absolute team. And

639
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: I think when you have head coaches that have I

640
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: mean assistant coaches who have been head coaches and kind

641
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: of get that whole team aspect about this thing helps us.

642
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: Then I think it leads to that. So I don't

643
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 1: want to I don't want to say that that's just

644
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: the players. The coaches help as well with that. Yeah,

645
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: you know, to that same point. Um, I think the

646
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: other thing you have to notice is that this team

647
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: competes hard against one another when you have offense versus defense.

648
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: We saw it in one of the videos we put

649
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: up earlier this year of when Diggs was was up

650
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,959
Speaker 1: against I think Amario and they were going hard at

651
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: each other and throughout training camp did we thought we did,

652
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: but but even during training camp we saw when when

653
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: Diggs and uh and and CD were going at each

654
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 1: other pretty hard. It is a sign of to me

655
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: of good chemistry when you can go at each other

656
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 1: really really really hard and after the play is over

657
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: you dap each other up, like there's still that connection that, Yeah,

658
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: we're going at each other really hard and I'm gonna

659
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: beat you, I'm gonna talk bad to you, but you

660
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: still my brother, like we still our teammates, and I

661
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: still want you want the best. And that's not always

662
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: what you see. Sometimes you can get frayed. Uh, you

663
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: know feelings with that kind of stuff. They got the

664
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: right kind of chemistry, right kind of guys to be

665
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: able to do that. Where else does that happen too?

666
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: Where else in life do you argue with people NonStop?

667
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, family family, Yeah,

668
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: that's what That's what it is. And that's what family is.

669
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if you if you you can argue with it,

670
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: but that doesn't change whatever anything, right and so and

671
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: and and some of the best battles in the history

672
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: of sports have probably been in the backyard with older brothers,

673
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 1: you know, that kind of stuff. So the day, it's family,

674
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: and I think that they've created that they've created a

675
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: family atmosphere here. I think the ultimate sign of good

676
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: chemistry is just implicitly trusting that the other phases of

677
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 1: the team are not going to let you down. And

678
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: like they're not going to say that. Yeah, but again,

679
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: like you know, Amari Cooper goes against Diggs every day

680
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: and sees what he offers, and then during these games

681
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: you see Parsons doing what he's doing. The defense getting

682
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: what are they at, like twenty takeaways now with five

683
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: games left to play or whatever it is, reliably doing that,

684
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: reliably holding opponents to manageable point totals. The defense knows

685
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 1: what the offense can do. And even for we talked

686
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: about this yesterday, for all the flak we gave the

687
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: special teams the first four or five weeks of the season,

688
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 1: they're holding their own in a big way right now.

689
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: I mean the contributions they're getting. Tony Pollard got them

690
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 1: back in that Raiders game with his kick return. So

691
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: I think when you just trust that you don't have

692
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: to do it yourself. I think you're not gonna go

693
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 1: say that. But everybody's like, yeah, these guys got my back.

694
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: They can get off the field and get us back

695
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 1: out there, or get the ball for the offense, or

696
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: we know that they're going to score twenty seven points.

697
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: We're good. As you know. We know that in the

698
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 1: back from I I think that is the ultimate thing

699
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: that helps chemistry is just that trust. All right, looks

700
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: like a phone call. We got robbed out in Vegas.

701
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: Rob What up? Hey, guys, how you been Hey? You

702
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: to hear from you. It's been a minute. I don't

703
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: think we've talked to you since there's been a football

704
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: team in Vegas. Wow. Okay, And that was a tough Thanksgiving.

705
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: I had a deal with Ooh, I bet sorry about that.

706
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny how this team is now. The

707
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: defense is blue collar and the offense is white collar.

708
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: And I, as a fan, and I'm sure other fans

709
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: you know, when Dak got hurt last year and he

710
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: came back, my biggest concern was was he going to

711
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: change his playing style? And he has, and that's hurting

712
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: this team because I love Dak. You know, every year

713
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: he's gotten better throwing the ball, but he's still not

714
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,800
Speaker 1: Brady or Aaron Rodgers. But when you combine his legs,

715
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 1: that's what makes him, in my eyes, a top five quarterback.

716
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 1: But I noticed he you know, there's no more read option.

717
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 1: They don't. They don't even have that in the offense

718
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 1: at all. And down by the goal line that was

719
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 1: almost unstoppable when he would just keep it, they don't

720
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:32,800
Speaker 1: use that, and I just I'm just afraid that unless

721
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,399
Speaker 1: he starts playing more reckless, which I know we say, well,

722
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: we don't want him to be reckless. We don't want

723
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 1: him to take those hits because he may get hurt.

724
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: But you know, I don't look at it like that

725
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, if he doesn't

726
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: play like that, we're not going to beat the Green

727
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: Bays or the Tampa Bays. So what's the difference, Because

728
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: to me, it's all about winning a Super Bowl. I

729
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: want to see him. I just I just want to

730
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: see Dak a little more reckless. And it just I

731
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: think it gets this offense really going. I mean his stide.

732
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 1: I think when he runs over thirty yards, I think

733
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: they only lost one game. Okay, we thanks you for

734
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: a call. You know something that's interesting about that point.

735
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: And actually Jerry was talking about this morning on one

736
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: or five out through the Fan. He was talking about

737
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: the offense and kind of how the play calling is going.

738
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: One thing he said that I thought was really interesting

739
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 1: was he said, you know, we've got stuff that we

740
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 1: put into the offense, or we put into our playbook

741
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: back in training camp that we specifically were holding until

742
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 1: this part of the year, until December, until January, because

743
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 1: you want your offense to kind of evolve over time.

744
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 1: You don't want to be doing the same things you

745
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 1: were doing in September in December. And it made me

746
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,560
Speaker 1: wonder there for a second. Although this question was not

747
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: necessarily about Dak, it made me wonder if they were, like,

748
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,879
Speaker 1: you know, we want to mitigate the risk with Dak,

749
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: and mitigating a risk means September, October, November, we're going

750
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 1: to be very judicious and how we use him. And

751
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: in the run game December, January, that's what we might

752
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 1: see a little bit more of that. Now that all

753
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 1: remains to be seen, who knows what they're gonna do.

754
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: What do you guys think, First of all, from the

755
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: standpoint of what Rob is talking about of Dak taking

756
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,399
Speaker 1: himself or them taking Dak out of the running game,

757
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 1: and then number two about the possibility of maybe that

758
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 1: being something that they use more as they go down

759
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: the stretch. You want to go first. Not wrong, He's

760
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: not wrong. We talked about it yesterday. He's not wrong,

761
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: But I mean, it's it's a very it's a slippery

762
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: slope for sure, when you're dealing with you know, this

763
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback who got hurt last year and the season

764
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,959
Speaker 1: was pretty much over after that happened. It was gonna

765
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: be an uphill battle anyways, and they just couldn't do

766
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 1: it without him. And so he it's a you know,

767
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 1: he's got to make business decisions, that's what it is.

768
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 1: It's and and sometimes he'll r he's making or you

769
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 1: think the teams, I think he makes them. I think

770
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 1: we see them. I think we see him. It's not

771
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: because some of his best runs aren't necessarily supposed to

772
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,720
Speaker 1: be runs, but he's making them. I don't think he's running,

773
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 1: don't You don't think someone is telling him, we don't

774
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 1: want you to run on as much? Like That's what

775
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out, is do you think this

776
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 1: is where what's that perfe doing in the Falcons game

777
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 1: when he just ran over someone to get to the

778
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 1: fortieth point? You know what I mean? Like that that

779
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: person's not not telling him to do that, that that

780
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: person told him after the game, don't do that again. Yeah,

781
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 1: he was like I had to show him. But you

782
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, so yeah, even if they tell him,

783
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: you're right, Yeah, that's still gonna do what he thinks.

784
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 1: He gain enough things where he does what he what

785
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 1: he does. I just he's got to be he even

786
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 1: said it now season, I got to be smart about it.

787
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 1: And that's what we're seeing, and it's it's not I mean,

788
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,479
Speaker 1: I sort of agree with Rob that he to be dack.

789
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: To be what he is, he's gonna have to play

790
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 1: reckless and you can't worry about it, even though I

791
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 1: still worry about it. When I see him running on

792
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: that side of the field, I was like, oh, I

793
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,360
Speaker 1: don't like that. And so if I'm thinking about it

794
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: and it didn't affect me, he probably is to Here's

795
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 1: the funny thing. I looked this up while y'all have

796
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: been talking. Sorry, no, no, it helped me get my

797
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: numbers right, okay, And but it's it's funny. It makes

798
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 1: it sound like, and I know that's not what y'all mean,

799
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: but like this whole conversation makes it sound like Lamar

800
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: Jackson has suddenly decided to stop running. Dak's average in

801
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, the last year he was healthy, he carried

802
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 1: the ball three point two times per game for about

803
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 1: seventeen yards. That's what we're talking about, three scrambles for

804
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: two first downs a game. Right now, he's averaging two

805
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 1: point seven a game for eight yards, so roughly the

806
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 1: same amount of attempts for about half the yardage. But

807
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 1: that's what I love about football, is seventeen yards a game.

808
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 1: Two of those three runs could be for crucial first downs,

809
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: or especially in the red zone where the field is

810
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,920
Speaker 1: so condensed, if you pull the ball and get two

811
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: yards and give yourself four new downs, you just greatly

812
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: increase your chance of scoring in goal situation. Get a

813
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: touch well. And the other funny thing is so Dak

814
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 1: scored six touchdowns a year his first three years. His

815
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 1: best year as a runner ever was twenty seventeen, and

816
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a coincidence that's that's when he

817
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: had the worst receiving core of his career. Absolutely, you know,

818
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: guys that couldn't get open, and he's got to improvise

819
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: a lot more. But in twenty nineteen he only had

820
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 1: three touchdowns. Well, he'd have three touchdowns right now if

821
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: he hadn't, in my opinion, gotten robbed of two QB

822
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 1: sneaks earlier. In the season. So again, that's what makes

823
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 1: football so funny, is if two other players go the

824
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: wrong way, you're like, or the right way. Excuse me,

825
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,279
Speaker 1: He's like, damn, he's run thirty two times for ninety

826
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: five yards and three touchdowns. That ain't bad for a

827
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: guy that's trying to do less. So I don't think

828
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 1: it's drastic, but I do think there needs to be

829
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 1: more an element of that. I mean, in theory, I

830
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 1: agree with Rob and Nick. I just don't think it's

831
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: as drastic as that. I think there needs to be

832
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: two more occasions per game where he's willing to tuck

833
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 1: and get six yards and slide or whatever. I don't

834
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: think you need to reinvent the wheel. Here again, we're

835
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: talking about the difference between seventeen yards a game and

836
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: eight yards. Again, like, it's not this drastic thing, but

837
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 1: I do think they need to be more mindful of that.

838
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: So while Day was talking, I did a little ago

839
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 1: research helping each other. Yeah, here we go, and how

840
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: many times in his career do you think he's rushed

841
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: for six times or more, six attempts or more. I

842
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 1: bet it would be a lot less than most people thinking,

843
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 1: what do you think. I mean, because I was six

844
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 1: rushes in a game, maybe three, I don't know, three

845
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 1: games in his career. I don't think that's a normal thing.

846
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: Six six rushes seems like okay, I was gonna I

847
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: was gonna say, twelve eighteen. I'm a little low. He

848
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,760
Speaker 1: rushes that. I didn't realize he rushed that many times

849
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: in a game. I mean, you know, and he's played

850
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 1: how many of those game in that season twenty seventeen.

851
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 1: I say, I'm thinking that's probably most of them. You know,

852
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 1: it's fun. I bet that number because he haven't done

853
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: at all season this eighteen twenty one, and this is

854
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: the year eighteen twenty one, sixteen, sixteen, sixteen, eighteen, nineteen, sixteen, seventeen, seventeen, seventeen, eighteen, eighteen, eighteen, eighteen,

855
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 1: nineteen twenty. That's his eighteen games where he's had where

856
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 1: he's had six rushes or more. Sounds like eighteen and

857
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 1: sixteen with a two per dominant years record for fourteen

858
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 1: and four. And when it's seven or more, it's like

859
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 1: seven six and zero seven. No, So I mean that's

860
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: those numbers can be a little misleading. I get it,

861
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: but I mean, you know, that's when he's running, when

862
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 1: he's doing his thing. You know, it's it's it's probably

863
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,320
Speaker 1: it's better. Um. And only one of those games he

864
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: runs nine times in twenty twenty one. Yeah, but again

865
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 1: like that, that goes to your point of, that goes

866
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: to your point of it can be misleading. He ran

867
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: nine times for six yards in that game. I mean,

868
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,399
Speaker 1: it's not like he was gashing the Eagles. And also,

869
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 1: you know, I also wonder how many times? How is

870
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 1: that possible? Because if it's a run, and it's if

871
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 1: it's a run and he gets sacked, Betty, I bet

872
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 1: he had one scramble for no. I bet he had

873
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: one for like eighteen yards, and then that offset a

874
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 1: bunch of one and two yard losses. If I had

875
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: to guess, I'd have to go back and look, all right, well,

876
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I just I feel like

877
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 1: when it comes down to running, I think the smarter

878
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 1: thing when you've got receivers and running backs and tight

879
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 1: ends the caliber of the ones on this team, I

880
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 1: think the smart thing is to say, Dak, let your

881
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: skill guys do the work. But that doesn't mean you

882
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 1: shouldn't find opportunities. I just think and I would I

883
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 1: really want to see what happens in December and January.

884
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,399
Speaker 1: If in December and January we start seeing a little

885
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: bit more of that did. I think that was a

886
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,479
Speaker 1: very smart move not to do it early in the season.

887
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 1: That gives you one other wrinkle you can add in

888
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 1: in the time of the year when you really need

889
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 1: to do something a little different to mix it up.

890
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: I don't want to see Dak carrying the ball six

891
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 1: or more times a game unless it's some weird circumstance,

892
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, but this goes back to

893
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 1: and I always try to listen to what he says

894
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 1: because you can kind of parse out some kernels of

895
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: truth if you go between the QB speak. And he

896
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 1: said it after the Saints game. He's like, that's probably

897
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: me being a little bit greedy, And he was talking

898
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: about one specific play, but I think it pertains to

899
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,200
Speaker 1: a lot of their issues and the things that you

900
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 1: can He was talking about rating within the flow of

901
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 1: the offense, taking it play by play, perfect example, and

902
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about one specific play, but you see

903
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:08,320
Speaker 1: this in football all the time. Josh Allen did it

904
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 1: last night. You break contain the play is kind of

905
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,720
Speaker 1: breaking down. You bolt to the sideline, guys in pursuit,

906
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 1: but you're athletic enough to get the corner on him.

907
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 1: Do you take your three or four yards and take

908
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: it to third and six? Or do you try to

909
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 1: fire to ceedee lamb bolting towards the sideline and get

910
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 1: eighteen right there? Dat can make that play. I'm not

911
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: he can make that play, and he should have trust

912
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 1: in himself. But maybe the smarter, more efficient play is

913
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: like third and six. And then We've got so many

914
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 1: other concepts that are easier to get, and I think

915
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 1: that element's been missing from this offense. I think a

916
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 1: lot of times over the last month, I think they've

917
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: been trying to dial up the touchdown play every time

918
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,240
Speaker 1: they snap the ball. And it's awesome when it works,

919
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 1: but it's tough to do that on a consistent basis

920
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: in the NFL. And that's an interesting thing because even

921
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 1: when you see it open, sometimes you see I think

922
00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: I can fit it in there. Yeah. Just the percentage

923
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 1: chance of completing a play, though, is lesser in a

924
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 1: situation where you might want to take the lesser don't

925
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 1: have to complete the Play's that's why when they say,

926
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 1: fifty fifty balls. I mean Derek Carr throwing it up

927
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 1: on Anthony Brown. It wasn't a fifty fifty, it was

928
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: an eighty twenty. That you're gonna get the ball there,

929
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 1: regardless of if the catch or not the flag might

930
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: be there. So that's why I do think they well maybe,

931
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:21,400
Speaker 1: but I do think they need to they need to

932
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 1: throw the ball up a little bit more because we're

933
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,799
Speaker 1: seeing that happen a lot, a lot. It's just tough

934
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 1: to well, but you know something, I don't know, and

935
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna get way off the tracks here, but I

936
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: don't know if we're seeing out a lot in every game.

937
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 1: We saw it a lot in the game where the

938
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys played the Raiders. We were just I was just

939
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: watching a game yesterday or Sunday where the exactly it

940
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 1: was a very similar play to what happened in the

941
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: Cowboys Raiders game, and there was no call, Like literally,

942
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 1: you saw the guy tugging the jersey. Yeah, you see

943
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,399
Speaker 1: the guy tugging the jersey, and you're like, that would

944
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 1: have been a call that week. And that's my whole

945
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: problem with all of the ref If you're gonna do

946
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: something consistently every time the same way, then hey, it

947
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 1: is what it is. But when you got such drastic

948
00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:00,319
Speaker 1: differences between in this game, it's a penalty in this game,

949
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 1: it's not. And I know it's different different referees, but

950
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,840
Speaker 1: it's just it's just really frustrating as a fan to

951
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 1: watch that pay But I'm gonna say one more thing.

952
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: You don't I don't know if I even agree with

953
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: with with you saying Jerry saying we're holding some plays

954
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 1: back and all that. The only thing I can think

955
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 1: of is, Okay, what if Seattle's doing that? Every team

956
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: is doing that. I think, well, what if Seattle's like Russ,

957
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 1: We're not gonna call all the plays right now, We're

958
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: gonna wait till the end of the season. And he's

959
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 1: like cool, Now, I'm three and eight like no. But

960
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: but I think I think you're missing the point. I

961
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:34,840
Speaker 1: think the point is when you look at the offense,

962
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: I think it is an evolving thing over the season.

963
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 1: There's some things you do early in the season. As

964
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 1: it progresses, you know, teams are game planning you. It's

965
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 1: like your idea of the flea flicker, right, you do

966
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: it because you're setting up other things. So my point

967
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 1: is like, there are things you do early in the

968
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,200
Speaker 1: season that are setting up things for later in the season,

969
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 1: and you don't want to show those things until you

970
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 1: get later in the season because that gives you something

971
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: that that you know teams are going to be keying

972
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: on that you now can take it manage. That's the point.

973
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 1: Better not be better than what I've been running, because

974
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I'm saying, don't save all the

975
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 1: good stuff to the end. If the end doesn't mean

976
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: it's not better stuff. It's just different stuff. It's just

977
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 1: things that you can do to take advantage of other

978
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: things that you've been doing earlier. I think, Okay, I

979
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 1: agree with you, but I mean I don't think. I

980
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:18,840
Speaker 1: don't think they got some golden play that they're like,

981
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,439
Speaker 1: we're not running this until the super Bowl. Like that's

982
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 1: a bad idea. I don't think that's the point of Okay,

983
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,800
Speaker 1: I think I just don't. Maybe I don't understand that

984
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 1: this is such a hypothetical argument as well. Yeah, it's

985
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,800
Speaker 1: about who saves money and who doesn't. I mean, you

986
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:33,359
Speaker 1: know what I mean, just like to spend it now?

987
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 1: I got it, you know what I mean, I got

988
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: the money you'll go with it as opposed to you know,

989
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just that just seems weird to me

990
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:40,279
Speaker 1: to just kind of wait till later in the season

991
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 1: when you don't know how the season's gonna go. Yeah,

992
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: But I also I think the teams that do really

993
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: well they have the ability to keep building on that.

994
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 1: If you're three and eight, then you're emptying. You're emptying

995
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 1: because the stuff that worked earlier isn't working. So guess what,

996
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 1: You've already You've already done all that stuff because you're

997
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,040
Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to get a win right

998
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: with the amount, with the amount that Mike McCarthy talks

999
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 1: about self scouting and being aware of your own tendencies.

1000
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,239
Speaker 1: And I would like to think, but I also trust

1001
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,800
Speaker 1: that Kellen Moore is going to keep an eye on that,

1002
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,200
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys offense is going to look basically the

1003
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 1: same what we've always seen. But it's about throwing in wrinkles,

1004
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 1: right and if you can find ways to take advantage

1005
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: of that. This is just an easy example. Dak hasn't

1006
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 1: run QB keeper off an option read all year. If

1007
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,240
Speaker 1: you think that that's there for you against one specific

1008
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 1: look where one team's really crashing on it, then you

1009
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 1: should do it. Not to say you're going to start

1010
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 1: running read option in every game, but it gets It's

1011
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 1: like Man Mantes Sweat is so aggressive, he's had so

1012
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: much success doing that, crashing inside on this play. That's

1013
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,319
Speaker 1: how you find a twenty five yard game for dak

1014
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 1: and with minimal risks. It's stuff like that, and yeah,

1015
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,800
Speaker 1: I would like to think we'll see maybe not that

1016
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,239
Speaker 1: exact scenario, but those types of things where you can

1017
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,839
Speaker 1: build on your own tendencies to take advantage of people.

1018
00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna take our final break. We're gonna

1095
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,840

Speaker 1: what we're gonna do, we're just gonna make this out.

1097
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,359

1098
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,839
Speaker 1: where you can ever. And I know you're not. If

1099
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:04,399
Speaker 1: I spent the days with the day with you guys,

1100
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,320
Speaker 1: i'd be I'd be happy with you. No, you wouldn't.

00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,040
Speaker 1: You don't think No, I would love that. Fans, if

Speaker 1: guys all day. No, we're gonna go in there and

1105
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:19,359
Speaker 1: we're gonna smoke a cigarette or whatever. Who's the same

1106
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: thing all smoking is both of y'all are kind of similar.

1107
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 1: Like when y'all want to come out and socialize, it's

1108
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 1: everybody's happy and there can be all the noise in

1109
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 1: the world. But when y'all are trying to focus on something,

1110
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,799
Speaker 1: it'd better be quiet as a church and the office. Everybody, though,

1111
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:37,719
Speaker 1: isn't that kind of everybody that happens. I just close

1112
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 1: my door because I have calls and I'm loud. I close.

1113
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 1: I'm tired of hearing it. Yeah, I'm extremely loud, and

1114
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 1: I know that that bothers everybody else. When I get

1115
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 1: loud on a phone call. I don't know what I

1116
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: really I feed off of other people's energy. Like I

1117
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,480
Speaker 1: like to watch football at bars. I like for there

1118
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,040
Speaker 1: to be a little bit of background noise in the office. Yeah,

1119
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 1: you said that. Remember when we were in Kansas City.

1120
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,320
Speaker 1: You said that kind of surprising what we were. We

1121
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 1: were like, um, we worked together in Kansas City. We

1122
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 1: were kind of after the game, we didn't go, we

1123
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,920
Speaker 1: didn't fight, Yeah, Charter after the game, and so we

1124
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 1: were like, we're in lobby, and I mean there's this

1125
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: like group of people that just weren't leaving the hotel.

1126
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:13,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it was just they're playing the football and

1127
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:15,840
Speaker 1: what it thrown around. It was like a family of thirty,

1128
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 1: you know, and it was kind of like, you know, wait,

1129
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:19,719
Speaker 1: they're playing football in the lot. How they were kids

1130
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:21,279
Speaker 1: playing you know. I don't know what was going on.

1131
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: We were waiting for seven ubers or I don't know,

1132
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 1: but and I said something, you know, and Dave, and

1133
00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:28,200
Speaker 1: Dave was like, h I like it. I like the

1134
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:31,200
Speaker 1: background noise. I'm just like, okay. After the Charger game,

1135
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,399
Speaker 1: I was. I was the last person that stayed after

1136
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 1: the Charger game. I took a red eye, so I

1137
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: got back to the hotel after the game at like

1138
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:42,240
Speaker 1: probably five thirty, and I was like, okay, my flight's

1139
00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,360
Speaker 1: not till midnight. I got all the time in the

1140
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 1: world to kill. I put my laptop just like it

1141
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,560
Speaker 1: is right now at the hotel bar, ordered a burger

1142
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: and a beverage and I sat there and watched the

1143
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,319
Speaker 1: games and worked for two and a half hours. Is great.

1144
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:57,879
Speaker 1: So came up, chatted with a few people. I think

1145
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 1: Clarence Hill was there. We kind of walked about the game.

1146
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:02,840
Speaker 1: I just yeah, I don't know. I like other people's

1147
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:04,840
Speaker 1: energy gives me energy. If I'm just left to my

1148
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 1: own devices, probably fall asleep something. We were in Kansas

1149
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:09,840
Speaker 1: City to tell a story. People say they like to

1150
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 1: hear stories. We were in Kansas City Tuesdays, just the

1151
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,359
Speaker 1: Tuesday's the No Structure show. So we're in Kansas City

1152
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,319
Speaker 1: watching the like the Chargers and the Steelers, I believe,

1153
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 1: And you know, in the hotel lounge bars wasn't really

1154
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 1: a bar. It was more like a lounge area and

1155
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 1: a lobby. And we're there and we were talking to

1156

00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,439
Speaker 1: really appreciate that absolutely, but this guy, these two guys

1176
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: over here did not know how to handle that. Yeah,

1177
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:23,960
Speaker 1: they thought they were the most important people. Yeah, but

1178
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:25,320
Speaker 1: they ever come out to you guys and getting the

1179
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 1: incomfortable like who are you guys? Yeah, that's that's maybe

1180
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,719
Speaker 1: the first time that's ever happened, because you like, I mean,

1181
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,799
Speaker 1: I'm not out getting stopped every day of my life.

1182
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 1: But if I'm in a Cowboys atmosphere, like if I'm

1183
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,799
Speaker 1: at the team hotel or at a game, I'm used

1184
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 1: to that, Like that's common training and yeah, training camp definitely.

1185
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: Um So normally when I'm in that setting, it makes

1186
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 1: sense people are like, oh, you're somehow affiliated with the

1187
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:55,200
Speaker 1: team or whatever. So no, that doesn't happen to me.

1188
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,000
Speaker 1: But what it happens when you're not in the inviting down,

1189
00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:59,320
Speaker 1: when people kind of looking at like, I are you,

1190
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 1: like somebody I should know. I have friends that listen

1191
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:06,359
Speaker 1: to this show and they'll tell you, like it'll happen

1192
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,279
Speaker 1: to me, like out at bars or at one time.

1193
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 1: I hope I hope this guy's listening because it was hilarious.

1194
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:13,640
Speaker 1: Like this was before COVID, but like we were all

1195
00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:15,400
Speaker 1: hopping in an uber. We were going a brunch in

1196
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 1: the off season and the car pulls up and I

1197
00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 1: just I like sitting up front, So I just naturally

1198
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:22,280
Speaker 1: go to get in the front seat of this guy's

1199
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 1: car and he's like, yeah, Dave, sit up here with me.

1200
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the Cowboys. Freak out. I not really,

1201
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 1: I say the Cowboys. Y, yeah, I was. I was like, oh, hey,

1202
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 1: what's up? And like I had some friends that had

1203
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,439
Speaker 1: never seen that happen before, and they gave me grief

1204
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 1: about it for the rest of the day. They're just like,

1205
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 1: who the hell are you? Like we knew, which we did,

1206
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:43,200
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, nothing's better than than getting pulled

1207
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: over in the cop just basically leaning into your window

1208
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 1: for about fifteen minutes talking to you about you know who,

1209
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:51,960
Speaker 1: what they should do with the running game and whatever.

1210
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,680
Speaker 1: Cars will like going eighty miles, but you know he's

1211
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,759
Speaker 1: on the right side, just like talking whatever, and it's like,

1212
00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 1: all right, slow down, see you later, Okay, as long

1213
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 1: as that doesn't even in a ticket. Oh it didn't know.

1214
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,799
Speaker 1: It's just like cool all day. But but I'll say

1215
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 1: this too, And I know we're way off in the

1216
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,360
Speaker 1: weeds here. It's fine. I do an extra fifty. I

1217
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,960
Speaker 1: do love it when that happens. Yeah, And it's not

1218
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 1: for the reason you would kind of think, because it

1219
00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:16,080
Speaker 1: is kind of embarrassing. It is. It is a little

1220
00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 1: bit very It's embarrassing because you just know that you're

1221
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:21,320
Speaker 1: not you know, like a training camp and I sign

1222
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 1: this and you're hey, can I get a picture? And

1223
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 1: you feel weird. It's feels awkward. But I will tell

1224
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:29,480
Speaker 1: you what why I do like it. It's because, you guys, know,

1225
00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:32,000
Speaker 1: my moods can kind of go up and down a

1226
00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:37,720
Speaker 1: little bit. Just tad, Yeah, don't even start a pot

1227
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,760
Speaker 1: and cattle over there, you don't start. But anyways, my

1228
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:42,960
Speaker 1: moods can't go up and down when I see when

1229
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 1: when I hear that, it is a reality check of

1230
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,960
Speaker 1: what we're doing and why we're doing it and the

1231
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,959
Speaker 1: fans that are out there, and it kind of brings

1232
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,840
Speaker 1: you back like you got a really good job whatever,

1233
00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,800
Speaker 1: whatever you're worried about, whatever the issue is, it'll be

1234
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:01,440
Speaker 1: all right. It always will be all right. It's a

1235
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 1: huge reality check for me. It's like, wow, this is

1236
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: this is a big deal, you know what I mean,

1237
00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,920
Speaker 1: Like we I'd have twenty five followers on Twitter if

1238
00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 1: I didn't work for the Cowboys. I think he's got

1239
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 1: the same opinions, right, but you know what I'm saying,

1240
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 1: and and and and we don't and we know why

1241
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: we have what we have. And I mean, I mean

1242
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 1: I don't have balloons for a hundred thousand, but not

1243
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 1: my faulty talk about embarrassing. That's embarrassing. That embarrassed that

1244
00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,760
Speaker 1: kind of day. It stood up there for four days. No,

1245
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:32,000
Speaker 1: I'm scared. I was like, no, that's that's but that's yeah.

1246
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 1: I remember when you started, like you switched Twitter accounts.

1247
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 1: You don't have any followers and zero. Yeah, he tweets

1248
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:43,600
Speaker 1: a little bit like he'll spend to say if to

1249
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:46,959
Speaker 1: say that's Clarence, but he gets out there, he'll spend

1250
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:49,240
Speaker 1: some time out there. You did he'll spend some time

1251
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 1: out there, all right, real quick before we in the show,

1252
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:52,440
Speaker 1: we do have to get a call from Nigel. He's

1253
00:58:52,440 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 1: been holding Yeah. As the world turns, right, how you doing, man,

1254
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:06,720
Speaker 1: I'm great man. As the world turns with Nick's life, Man,

1255
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:11,920
Speaker 1: you're killing me anyway. I don't watch that. I got

1256
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 1: a couple of things. I got a session and my

1257
00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 1: clients are waiting. But I've been waiting patiently because Nick

1258
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:25,040
Speaker 1: super califragilistic XPILA. That's me, man, I'm the guy who

1259
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:31,880
Speaker 1: did that. Anyways, Um, you brought it up there, so

1260
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 1: I heard him saying he wants to sing, and you know,

1261
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:38,240
Speaker 1: if you need help with that, I'll bring in connecting.

1262
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:46,320
Speaker 1: But yeah, there you go, buddy. Um offensive line, Phil Callahan, Man,

1263
00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 1: I think we were at our peak when we had him.

1264
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 1: I'm kind of bummed his garden. It seems everywhere he's gone,

1265
00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:55,479
Speaker 1: he's he's been so successful. And what I'm not seeing

1266
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 1: is the tenacity man in our offensive line. I'm not

1267
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 1: seeing the push are tight end zone holding blocks. I'd

1268
01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 1: like you to touch on that and the other thing

1269
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 1: before I gotta go. I love you, guys, but what

1270
01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:10,680
Speaker 1: in God's name are we doing putting Ziegel on an

1271
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:13,520
Speaker 1: empty backfield out as a wide receiver when we all

1272
01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 1: know Tony Pollard is a beast out there. Thanks, guys,

1273
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,080
Speaker 1: love you. Let's kick the you know what out of

1274
01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:24,440
Speaker 1: the WWFT than appreciate the call. I'm really happy and

1275
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,439
Speaker 1: we can get to the offensive line. But I'm really

1276
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:29,160
Speaker 1: happy he brought that up. And because we can talk

1277
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:32,400
Speaker 1: about Dak and the receivers and the offensive line. Kelly

1278
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 1: Moore is part of this too, And oh my god,

1279
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,600
Speaker 1: I was so pissed off when they lined Zeke up

1280
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 1: out wide on a third down and threw him a

1281
01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:44,680
Speaker 1: slam it. Yeah, and he like Zeke, he has shown

1282
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:47,840
Speaker 1: his hands this year. Still, what are we doing? Yeah?

1283
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 1: There's literally three Pro Bowl caliber receivers on this team

1284
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:54,480
Speaker 1: and another two that I would still I would want

1285
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 1: Malik Turner doing that before Zeke Elliott. That drove me nuts. Well,

1286
01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:00,640
Speaker 1: in all fairness, you do have to point out the

1287
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:02,640
Speaker 1: fact that when you get Dak I mean, I'm sorry,

1288
01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:04,800
Speaker 1: when you get Zeke out there running that slant, his

1289
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 1: matchup is going to be better. He's probably going to

1290
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 1: have a linebacker, which is a better matchup than a

1291
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Who would have a defensive back, So that

1292
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,200
Speaker 1: does matter a bit. I think the point that that

1293
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:17,200
Speaker 1: um Nigel was making, I think that's a valid point.

1294
01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,040
Speaker 1: Who do you want running that slant between yes Zeke

1295
01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 1: and I mean Pollard? Pollard a one hundred times out

1296
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 1: of a hundred. He played some receiver in college. I

1297
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 1: still don't care. By the way, you don't came about

1298
01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 1: the match. I don't when was this play? Was fourth quarter?

1299
01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:35,480
Speaker 1: It was? I remember it. I remember it vividly because

1300
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:38,880
Speaker 1: when it happened, I was like, that's what like it was.

1301
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 1: It was during that stretch. I felt like there was

1302
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,440
Speaker 1: a stretch there and yeah, like that's part of the

1303
01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 1: thing fans don't see too, is like we gotta get

1304
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,480
Speaker 1: down to the field. And also in the new nice stadiums,

1305
01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 1: there's a TV on every wall where you can kind

1306
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 1: of keep track of everything. The dome. We were watching

1307
01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:56,560
Speaker 1: on Derek's phone in the tunnels while we were trying

1308
01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 1: to get out to the field. I know this is

1309
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 1: your home city, but that's a dump. It's a dun't

1310
01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:03,800
Speaker 1: It is now the if not the worst, then the

1311
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:06,160
Speaker 1: second worst stadium in the league. I mean it holds

1312
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 1: a special place in my heart. Yeah, yeah, FedEx is

1313
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 1: my least favorite. Yeah, and that's probably because I have

1314
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 1: a nostalgic tide of the Dome, but it's not a

1315
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:15,840
Speaker 1: nice building and do the same thing to me. Yeah,

1316
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 1: remember when Sex don't like hosted the Super Bowl? Though

1317
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't at least this play. And

1318
01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:25,600
Speaker 1: it's also about the atmosphere. And by the way, you

1319
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:27,480
Speaker 1: got you got the city right, that's the part that

1320
01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:30,440
Speaker 1: makes New Orleans always always when you can actually aways

1321
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 1: say hate about that, you gotta get down there and

1322
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:33,920
Speaker 1: you can't miss especially you know, for us, we got

1323
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 1: to interview guys right after the game. But like you

1324
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:38,640
Speaker 1: always fraid you're gonna miss that. And one time I

1325
01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,880
Speaker 1: did miss the game changing play. One time it was

1326
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,280
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and Giants. I forgot the year twenty fifteen.

1327
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:48,000
Speaker 1: Two times I got another one for you. Oh man,

1328
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 1: maybe but it was but I just remember the Cowboys

1329
01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:54,360
Speaker 1: were down seven, they drove, they scored with about three

1330
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:56,400
Speaker 1: minutes to go, tied the game. We were about to

1331
01:02:56,440 --> 01:02:57,640
Speaker 1: go on the field. I was like, I'm gonna go

1332
01:02:57,680 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 1: to the restroom right real quick. All I'm gonna do

1333
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,640
Speaker 1: is miss the kickoff. And you just hear this crowd

1334
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:05,960
Speaker 1: and you're like, this doesn't seem like a thirty yard return.

1335
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:10,640
Speaker 1: It's still going. It seems like, you know, I get out.

1336
01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:12,800
Speaker 1: I was like Dwayne Harris just went on hundred the

1337
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,640
Speaker 1: Giants game. The Giants game. I'm like, okay, and that's

1338
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 1: I missed it. What was what was another player in

1339
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:21,400
Speaker 1: Texas Stadium, Santana Moss. We both were going in the elevator,

1340
01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:27,479
Speaker 1: elevator and missed that. The Cowboys were up fourteen, three, thirteen, thirteen, nothing, nothing,

1341
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:31,800
Speaker 1: and then right back to back he goes bam, big play, touchdown, Bam,

1342
01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:33,880
Speaker 1: big play touchdown, and we I think we missed both

1343
01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:35,800
Speaker 1: of them. I know we missed one, but we may

1344
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:38,000
Speaker 1: have missed both of those. And we got down the

1345
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:40,480
Speaker 1: field and like what they're they're they're losing, and it

1346
01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 1: just like you know, when you're in that elevator, you

1347
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,080
Speaker 1: never know what's gonna happen. When did when did that happen?

1348
01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:49,440
Speaker 1: I can't find it. What the the Washington game, No, No,

1349
01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:53,080
Speaker 1: the zeke in completion, I don't know. I remember I

1350
01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:56,080
Speaker 1: remember play vividly. I don't remember what I was part

1351
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:57,640
Speaker 1: of the game it was in I just remember I

1352
01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:01,920
Speaker 1: remember watching it and thinking that's an odd call, Mickey,

1353
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:09,160
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, anyway, he loves to tell

1354
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 1: Rob things in the middle of the game, Like he

1355
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:14,240
Speaker 1: just passes you and just tells Rob something that happened.

1356
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 1: And Rob's like, okay, yeah, that looks like okay me

1357
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:23,120
Speaker 1: and me and we have a good relationship. But that's

1358
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 1: his guy. The offensive line, I mean, I that's what

1359
01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 1: he was asking about, and I think we have touched

1360
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,000
Speaker 1: on it. It is not the same, is I Mean,

1361
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:33,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if Bill Callahan would be the answer.

1362
01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:36,280
Speaker 1: And he's always been good wherever he's been, but um,

1363
01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:39,080
Speaker 1: he's got a job too, so I mean, like that's

1364
01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:42,120
Speaker 1: it worked out for him. But you're right, I mean

1365
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:45,320
Speaker 1: it's not the same. These guys are not you know,

1366
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:48,560
Speaker 1: there's not as aggressive. What was the other was another

1367
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,880
Speaker 1: caller that said this, it's a blue collar defense and

1368
01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:55,200
Speaker 1: a white collar and white collar offense. And that's part

1369
01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 1: of what's going on with the offensive line, which is

1370
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:01,840
Speaker 1: it's frustrating because they were mauling people. I mean, they

1371
01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:03,760
Speaker 1: were running for two hundred yards a game for a

1372
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:06,240
Speaker 1: solid month. I mean that's not white collar to me.

1373
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:08,240
Speaker 1: But over the last over the last couple of games.

1374
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:10,280
Speaker 1: You think maybe it's the fact that you mean talk

1375
01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:12,640
Speaker 1: about the offensive line coach not being there, like literally,

1376
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:14,760
Speaker 1: you got your you got another coach having to come

1377
01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:17,800
Speaker 1: over and and coach the offensive line. And by the way,

1378
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:20,360
Speaker 1: as you said, it's not so much the preparation, it

1379
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,320
Speaker 1: is the end game adjustments. So those things. If you're

1380
01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:26,040
Speaker 1: not adjusting to what the other team is doing throughout

1381
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 1: the game as well, then you would expect they're not

1382
01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:30,760
Speaker 1: going to be as good as they've maybe been earlier.

1383
01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:33,600
Speaker 1: And someone told me this just just the other day,

1384
01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:36,600
Speaker 1: that the Saints are the worst team you could face

1385
01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:38,640
Speaker 1: when you don't have your offensive line just the way

1386
01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:41,440
Speaker 1: they play on there that front and very good up front. Yeah,

1387
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean Kellen Moore said that yesterday. He was like,

1388
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:46,320
Speaker 1: the Saints have been great against the run for years

1389
01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:49,720
Speaker 1: at this point, I mean, from maybe marking around the

1390
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:52,920
Speaker 1: time Cam Jordan got there. They've just been awesome at

1391
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,600
Speaker 1: it more often than not. So I mean, that's worth considering.

1392
01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:59,240
Speaker 1: But this is a problem that stems for five weeks now,

1393
01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 1: Like I don't just like, I mean, they didn't even

1394
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 1: run the ball that well against Atlanta, did they am I, Well,

1395
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:07,400
Speaker 1: they didn't have to. Well, I know, but not really.

1396
01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 1: I mean, Zeke's numbers have good, they've been, they've been

1397
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:12,480
Speaker 1: having some they've been they've been not as productive in

1398
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 1: the run game. For five weeks. I don't think he's

1399
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:16,960
Speaker 1: had a one hundred yard game and like eight weeks

1400
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:20,439
Speaker 1: since maybe the Giants, Yeah, the Giants game, I think,

1401
01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:24,320
Speaker 1: which it's injuries. I don't. I don't have a great answer,

1402
01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:26,120
Speaker 1: but it's it kind of goes back to what we

1403
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:28,680
Speaker 1: were saying about Dak and the receivers. You think there's

1404
01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 1: just little snapshots like the one that's in my head

1405
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 1: right now is I can't believe this happened to somebody

1406
01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,439
Speaker 1: of Tyron Smith's caliber. But like he fires off into

1407
01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 1: a double team to help Connor McGovern out and just

1408
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:42,680
Speaker 1: lets the end run free and the play gets blown up,

1409
01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:46,040
Speaker 1: and Tyron Smith was like, yeah, I just can't make

1410
01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:48,240
Speaker 1: errors like that. It's like, yeah, I'm not used to

1411
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:51,680
Speaker 1: seeing you make errors like that. And so on top

1412
01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 1: of the injuries, on top of not having as much

1413
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:58,000
Speaker 1: consistency or talent as they did back when Bill Callahan

1414
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:01,959
Speaker 1: was here, just whole thing's off sync, Like the whole

1415
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,840
Speaker 1: the whole. They're just like three degrees west of where

1416
01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:07,480
Speaker 1: they need to be. Just everybody on the offense, they

1417
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:09,400
Speaker 1: better figure it out. It's time of the year when

1418
01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 1: you need to figure it out. They gotta figure out

1419
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,000
Speaker 1: because if you go into the playoffs without a running game,

1420
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:16,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a hard time against these teams. You

1421
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 1: got this, I could be setting myself up for colossal

1422
01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:23,120
Speaker 1: disappointment because in my head, I'm between the injuries and

1423
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:26,320
Speaker 1: then the chance to just sort of breathe, And I

1424
01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:28,760
Speaker 1: do think this is important. Like during that stretch where

1425
01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:31,640
Speaker 1: you're playing three games in twelve days, like you're onto

1426
01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:33,920
Speaker 1: the next opponent before that game's even done, you're not

1427
01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:37,280
Speaker 1: mixing a lot. Yeah, given five or six days to

1428
01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 1: sort of breathe and self scout and reassess. I'm really

1429
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:45,240
Speaker 1: hoping that fixes it. And if it doesn't, I'm all

1430
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,520
Speaker 1: out of answers. If they go up to Washington and

1431
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:50,560
Speaker 1: don't eat, I mean, winning and losing is one thing,

1432
01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:52,440
Speaker 1: but if they don't even look like the offense that

1433
01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:55,439
Speaker 1: we've gotten used to, then I don't know what to say. Yeah,

1434
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 1: all right, we appreciate you guys. Jonas. We went a

1435
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:59,400
Speaker 1: little long today, but it was worth it. Some good stories.

1436
01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:01,840
Speaker 1: We'll sate you guys. You're gonna move back Tomorrow we'll

1437
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:05,200
Speaker 1: start getting into the next game Cowboys versus Washington football team.

1438
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:06,840
