00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: I've seen people call it on Twitter. The broccoli look

00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: I like it. Yeah, well he he did shave the

14
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: beard a little bit. Yeah, you guys have seen him all.

15
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: He put that hair from the beard on top of

16
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: his head. Hair transplant, yes, yes, all we need is

17
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 1: those legs being right. Everything else you don't care about,

18
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 1: the hair, don't need to worry about. Just give me,

19
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: give me the legs, the hands. Let's go spoken like

20
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: a true scout. Yes, legs, lands and eyes and give

21
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: me all that and tummy and mind and mind and

22
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: mind that mind right, Well, it sounded right. You know.

23
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: We had an exclusive interview on Dallas Cowboys dot com

24
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: as he spoke yesterday returning. You know, he said a

25
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: lot of different quotes, things like chomping at the bit

26
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: to get back. He was very proud of the team,

27
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: keeping them still in it, and he said he watched

28
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: every game and he rooted for them, and it was very,

29
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: very difficult for him, which we all assumed, you know,

30
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: because he left when this team was like looking like

31
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: they were going the right direction, beating the Chiefs who

32
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: were still where yeah, being the Chiefs pretty single handedly

33
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: with him. Yeah, and then you go to Falcons the

34
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: next week and he didn't find out if he was

35
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,559
Speaker 1: going to be playing or not until Thursday of that week, right,

36
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: and then you saw the three game losing streak three

37
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: game win streaks. So were you surprised by anything, he said, Brian, No,

38
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: I really wasn't. I you know, I would have been

39
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: really interested to see though, you know, the remorsefulness of

40
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: it all, you know, I mean, it hit. It is

41
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: a you know, this is a difficult time for a

42
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: lot of guys because now you're you're in this playoff push,

43
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: but there's so much uncertainty there, you know, And did

44
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 1: you know by what happened with him directly affected a

45
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: season and a lot of these guys and coaches and

46
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: stuff don't have a lot of campaigns to begin with,

47
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: you know, And and all of a sudden, you know,

48
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: when you're you're in a mode where you're trying to win,

49
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: you're trying to get in. Last year, everything was so

50
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: good and you're built, you were able to build on that,

51
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: and then all this now comes down in August and

52
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: you know, you're it's hanging over your head, and you know,

53
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: he's right that he should be grateful that his teammates

54
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: had his back in order to keep the season afloat.

55
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 1: But if he's playing, I don't think we're talking about

56
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: needing the Buccaneers and the Bengals and everybody else to

57
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: have to win to get in. You know. I think

58
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: that's the side of it that I think that I

59
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: really wanted to know is that, you know, how did

60
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: you feel like did you did you feel like you

61
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: let your teammates down? You know, you appreciate them for

62
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: what they've done, but you know, I mean there's guys

63
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: like Jason Witten that don't have many more of these

64
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: campaigns in him. Well, that's kind of a complicated issue though,

65
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: that to talk about, because he was suspended in the

66
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: NFL report directly for the domestic violence allegations. Right, they

67
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: said that in the report nothing else factored into their decisions.

68
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: Some of the off the field stuff. He's been accused

69
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: of being involved in whatever Saint Patty's Day all that,

70
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: so based simply on that incident, a legend incident. Well,

71
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: he says he has nothing to do with and was

72
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: never criminally charged. So it's hard. I mean, I see

73
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: what you're saying. There's some things he can he can

74
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: do better off the field in terms of being in

75
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: the spotlight and handling that. But if we're just talking

76
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: about that case, he maintains his innocence, so sure, But

77
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: I see what you're saying. And he didn't have any

78
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: teammates when it happened. Yea, in college, that's true. He

79
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: wasn't cowboy yet, right, Yeah, do you feel he feels

80
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: does he have any remorsefulness? Mickey? You think? I don't know.

81
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: I didn't talk to him, and he's probably not going

82
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: to let you know, yeah, but I think that's one

83
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: reason the team has his back because this that that

84
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: specific issue. They know how important he is that and

85
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: they they believe him and support him in that he

86
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: had nothing to do with those allegations. So I mean,

87
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: if we're specifically talking about that, then I don't think

88
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: there is an issue of remorse really because he feels

89
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: he did nothing wrong. It was funny I was thinking about.

90
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: You know, we talked a lot about his energy, his

91
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: return of his energy, and a lot of people talked

92
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: abo about that before. Remember when Dez was on his

93
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,119
Speaker 1: holdout and he was missing most of OTAs are missed

94
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 1: all of it pretty much, and then you know when

95
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: he came back, there was this energy to have him

96
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: back and what he was going to be able to bring.

97
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: And I think I feel the same way with Ezekiel returning.

98
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: As far as the media, the fans, you know, everyone

99
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: around here who works here, everyone was very anxious to

100
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: see him, to see just a glimpse of Okay, he's

101
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: back in the building. Because he's so exciting. You know,

102
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: people were sharing different videos and everything of him, and

103
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: you know, we had the rookies do two weeks ago.

104
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: The Salvation Tree Army loading into the truck. And you know,

105
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 1: these rookies, they're they're being thrown into a lot of

106
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: starting roles, but they're just kind of you know, they're

107
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: they're excited. I'm sure in the locker room they're different people.

108
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: So I don't want to speak to that. But John

109
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: Mashoda shared a video and it's like Zeke's jumping in

110
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: the card and he's he's messing with Dak, He's doing

111
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: all these different things. He's making it fun out there

112
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: for these guys. Long as he jumps into the ends him,

113
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: that's all I care about. Jumps into the kettle. That's true.

114
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: But you brought a touchdown. But you brought up that

115
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: point yesterday. How he can bring some some needed juice

116
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: to that locker room throughout a grueling season. I think

117
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: you've heard it already, didn't you. Like after the game,

118
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: Dez DeMarcus Lawrence called him a big ass kid yesterday.

119
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 1: He said, yeah, big ass kid. And I asked him

120
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: kind of cars, I asked him what Mickey said about

121
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: He said, long season. He makes it football. He makes

122
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: it fun. You know, after what we've you know, been through,

123
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 1: they've been this has been a roller coaster season like

124
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: none other. So to bring him in after forty two days,

125
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: I think that is a lift. But yeah, ultimately it's

126
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: about the production on the field. Yeah, I did. He

127
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: brings that too. We think, we think he's going to

128
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: be Zeke. I hope he's going to be Zeke. I mean,

129
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,799
Speaker 1: you know, we'll see what we get to see throughout

130
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 1: the week in practice, first practice out there, and you

131
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 1: can only hope for the best. And gosh, I think

132
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: Garrett sounded optimistic though, right Rob. Yeah, you know, he

133
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: didn't commit to and that's very Jason like. He didn't

134
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: commit to saying, oh, we're gonna give him thirty carries.

135
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: But it sounded like, Okay, we're focusing on Wednesday. He's

136
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: gonna go through a normal full Wednesday practice, which speaks to, hey,

137
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: he's in good shape. He was engaged in meetings and

138
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: so signs would point to he'll have a normal type workload.

139
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: Jerry spoke to that, and what Brian said yesterday is

140
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: do you have a choice. No, I mean really don't.

141
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: You got you gotta roll with him, you gotta ride him.

142
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: He took the first snaps when they did the walk

143
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: through before the stretch. Yeah, he was out there, so

144
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: he Jason doesn't have to say it, he doesn't have

145
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: to advertise it to the Seahawks. But he's gonna play.

146
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: He's gonna be out there. You would be stupid if

147
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: you didn't think he was gonna have it not a

148
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: significant role in this football game. They need him to

149
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: win this game, they really do. I mean it's gonna

150
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: come down to this is a game of wills because

151
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: both teams are fighting for their lives really right now. Yeah,

152
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: and so you know team is able to to, you know,

153
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: put their will onto the other team, you know, and

154
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: I think that's what Ezekiela will do for you. You know,

155
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 1: his that energy you talk about tay, the ability, to

156
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: the physicality which he plays. You know, he gets the

157
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: crowd going. You know, they're gonna need all that. This

158
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: is not gonna be one of the Seattle might have

159
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: lost the last two games and lost badly. The Rams

160
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: still a good football team. Yeah, and so you're gonna need,

161
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: as Jason Garrett would say, all hands on deck to win.

162
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 1: And so handing him the ball twenty five thirty times.

163
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: Whatever they have to do, they better do because it's

164
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: going to take every bit of that. It's really a

165
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: fascinating opponent for the Cowboys because we spoke this week

166
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: already about how Seattle is such a prideful team, but

167
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: they are so banged up defensively. Yeah, and they gave

168
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 1: up two hundred and forty four rushing yards against the

169
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: Rams last week. That's the most in seven years. Yeah.

170
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: And uh, we were talking about what's the last time

171
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: they lost three games in a row? Twenty eleven under Carol. Undercarrol,

172
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: it happened twice under Its happened yeah, this first year

173
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: and then two thousand and eleven. So can they rally around,

174
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 1: you know, and and to produce a Seattle type performance,

175
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: and can the Cowboys get back to doing what they

176
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: do with Zeke. It's really an interesting matchup. They're capable

177
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: of quitting too. We've seen we've seen we've seen them

178
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: lose their control. We've seen things happen to them. That

179
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: Jacksonville game was awful for them at the end. You know,

180
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: they lost their control there, you know, And those are

181
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: quality players too. I was having a discussion with someone

182
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: the other day, and you know, you think at the

183
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks and you're thinking of these these big time players,

184
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 1: and a lot of them unfortunately injuries have taken them

185
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: off the field. But at this point in the NFL

186
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: season for twenty seventeen, who would you say, is it

187
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: all around better team the Seattle Seahawks or the Dallas

188
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: Cowboys with Zeke on the field. The Cowboys, Yeah, I

189
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: agree because in the Seattle with their current state, but

190
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: theirs where they're at with with no with no Sherman,

191
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: no Chandler Thomas, no Avery, none of the those guys.

192
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: kJ right, Bobby Wagner got banged up last week. I

193
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: believe what you know, who's their running back they had

194
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: at the start of the season, Oh uh Lacy? Yeah,

195
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: Lacey's yeah, he's like listed thirteen third team balls the

196
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 1: second Yeah. So they've had their struggles, no doubt. Their

197
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: offensive line is not as good. They've tried to do

198
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: some things. Currently, the Cowboys are a better football team, absolutely.

199
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: I mean, but they're but they but what again, it's

200
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: the it's the danger factor. As you look at if

201
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 1: you look at what we saw last week with Oakland

202
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 1: right there, you're about to you're most likely going to

203
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 1: play without your left tackle this week. So think about that.

204
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: I mean, they've still got defensive linemen. That's what I'm saying.

205
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,719
Speaker 1: It's about. You know, look, what what was the what

206
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: were what were the Raiders' best hope for in the

207
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: game the other day? What was their best hope Khalil

208
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: Mack and uh Bruce Rvancora. That's it. Yeah, that's that's

209
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: that which they started to at times. Yeah, that was

210
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 1: that was their best hope, you know. And and the Seahawks.

211
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: I'll say this though, if you gave as much as

212
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: I love Derek Carr, Russell Wilson is dangerous to play against.

213
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson jouns for what their he if you don't

214
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: play him right, he could be a huge problem in

215
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: this game. They just need to remember how they played

216
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: him last time, making play backwards right once he gets

217
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: outside the pocket, yep, he'll hurt you. And Zeke should

218
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: be looking at and the Cowboys should be looking at

219
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: the last two games when the Seahawks gave up one

220
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: hundred and forty one yards rushing and then two hundred

221
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: and forty four yards rushing, one hundred and fifty two

222
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: of those to Todd Gurley. Yeah, they they had no

223
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: answer for Todd. They did not, and in a great

224
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: play calling by the Rams in that game, by the way,

225
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: with McVeigh, they score a touchdown on a third and

226
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: twenty on basically a draw. It was very similar to

227
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: what happened right before the half of Kansas City got

228
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: to score on Dallas. Very similar to what how that worked?

229
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: Blocked excellent, you know, execution, well, girly just finishes the run. Yeah, absolutely,

230
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: you know, you you you, You've got to find a

231
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: way again. I always blocked this front, block this front. Yeah,

232
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: And as always we have to give credit to our listeners.

233
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: Yesterday we asked how many times in Pete Carroll's era

234
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: have they gone three three straight losses? And thank you

235
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: Robert Sample because he sent it out to us. He said,

236
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: did some digging. Carroll has had two oh and three

237
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: stretches during his time in Seattle. First one was in

238
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: two thousand and ten. They were seven and nine at

239
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: the end of the year, Week fourteen, Week fifteen, and

240
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: week sixteen went on that losing, So you know you're

241
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: looking at that exactly two ten or two thousand and eleven,

242
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: two thousand and ten, two thousand eleven, thanks seven nine,

243
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: week seven eight nine. Yeah. Yeah, but they weren't very

244
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: good team back. No, they were not. See that. That's

245
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 1: the thing I do. I'm one of those guys that

246
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: subscribes to the desperate team, and I think the Cowboys

247
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,439
Speaker 1: are desperate team to I think the Cowboys are playing

248
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: better than the Seahawks right now. But the Seahawks have

249
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: lost to two really good teams, Jacksonville and the Rams

250
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: back to back, much like the Cowboys when they had

251
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 1: their three game losing Street lost to some pretty good

252
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: teams along the way, some playoff teams along the way.

253
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 1: So you got to figure that out real quick. When

254
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: I was talking to those we're having the discussion about

255
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: who's the better team, somebody said, you know, obviously the Cowboys,

256
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 1: but I think it sometimes comes down to coaching. And

257
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: they said, at times, it seems that Seattle Seahawks are

258
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,719
Speaker 1: just better coaching as far as time management, different things

259
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 1: they do. And I mean, you'd have to look at

260
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: that game by game because I think that's very situational.

261
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, who said that. We were just having

262
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: a discussion with someone, Yeah, yeah, you know. I think

263
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: that with the Seahawks, it's amazing with all the injuries

264
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: that they're still in the middle of all this thing too,

265
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: you know that they're still fighting, and that just shows

266
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 1: you the front. That just shows you the coaching, that

267
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: shows you the quarterback. I just I worry about the

268
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: quarterback in this well. It is become his football team

269
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,680
Speaker 1: because you know, we've talked about what's Da Dak's progression

270
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: going to be in the next few years. Russell Wilson

271
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: used to be kind of not a bus driver, but

272
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: just kind of manage the game. Strength of the defense helps.

273
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: I think he's second in touchdown passes. He's got thirty

274
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 1: touchdown passes, five hundred plus rushing yards. They rely on

275
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: him so much. But you're right, Brian, I mean how

276
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: many times he gets sacked last week? I think Donald

277
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: had three by himself. Yeah, it is amazing how bad

278
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: they are inside there with Luke jokel you know, and

279
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: then with a post Sick who the rookie from LSU.

280
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: They've really struggled. They have no power players inside. The

281
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: Raiders last week where a power offensive line. This team

282
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: this week is not a not a very They're an

283
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: athletic group, but they do not play with a lot

284
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: of power. That is their biggest problem. They went out

285
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 1: and they got to you know, they got Dwayne Brown

286
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: on a trade from Houston Texans. He's a slow footed guy,

287
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: he really really is. And you see people run around

288
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: the corner on him, and you know, hopefully the Cowboys

289
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: will run around the corner on him. But the main

290
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: area to attack this group, in my opinion, is right

291
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: up the middle. And that's where Mickey was talking about.

292
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: And you'll hear Marinelli when we have coordinators, he will say, hey,

293
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: we gotta make him throw from the well. You've got

294
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: to make him keep him in the well. And you'll

295
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: hear that a lot. I've learned this about watching Russell

296
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: Wilson play teams that have success. Make him play backwards, Yeah,

297
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: don't let him play forward, because if he's playing forward

298
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: on the move throwing the football, he will hurt you.

299
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: But you get him playing off his back foot having

300
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: to throw the ball down the field, that's a whole

301
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: different animal for him. Second in touchdowns with thirty, yeah, well,

302
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: the second in touchdowns with thirty got him to the

303
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl because he is a Pro Bowler this year.

304
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is not. But four other Cowboys are Zach Martin,

305
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: Travis Frederick, Tyrn Smith, and to Marcus Lawrence making his

306
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: first appearance in the Pro Bowl. So you know, you

307
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: look at that and obviously thirty touchdowns, that's pretty easy

308
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: to decide you're a Pro Bowl quarterback. Yeah, no question,

309
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: no question, no questions. That's the strength of their football

310
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: is because the running game. You mentioned a bunch of

311
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: different backs. They've kind of had some inconsistency there. He's

312
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: been the most consistent guy they've had, but they've resorted

313
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: to throwing the ball. They've had to. I mean, he's

314
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: throwing the ball five hundred and three times. They just

315
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: they cannot They have not had the success. Again, that's

316
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: a lob. It has to do with the offensive line.

317
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: That's not a physical group. How many touchdowns does Jimmy

318
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 1: Graham have He has nine, He leads all tight ends. Yeah,

319
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: he's at the Pro Bowl as well. Yeah, but you

320
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: know he's been held to one catch in the last

321
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: two games, so there's been talk up there is how

322
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: do they get him more involved. You know, he's been

323
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: really quiet in these last two losses, which is interesting

324
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: because you know you're talking about the passing and Jimmy

325
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: Graham's one of the best passing tight ends obviously in

326
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: the league and to see him not getting involved. Maybe

327
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: that's the key there. Yeah, well let's take our first break.

328
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: When we come back, we will get more into looking

330

375
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: as we speak here at the start in Frisco. Tyron Smith,

376
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: Lyle Collins, DeMarcus Lawrence, David Irving, and Anthony Hudgen's all absent,

377
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: but Ezekiel very very present and participating. So you know,

378
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: before you guys freak out the Pro bowlers Tyron Smith

379
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: and DeMarcus Lawrence. Now, Tyron Smith is a different, different

380
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: discussion that will happen one second, but DeMarcus Lawrence not

381
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: to worry. I think it's a day of rest. Yeah, yes,

382
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: Tyron Smith, though you just said it in the first segment.

383
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: You think he's out of this game. Oh well, I'm

384
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 1: just I'm just my thought. I mean, I'm not again,

385
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: you're not predicting, No, I'm not. I'm just saying that.

386
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: I just feel like that you need to prepare for

387
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 1: him not to play in this football game. I think

388
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: there's I think there's you know, we talk about the knee.

389
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: There's a couple of different things wrong with him. He's

390
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: doing with the still dealing with the back stuff and

391
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 1: all that. I mean, this might be they talk about

392
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 1: all hands on deck. I hope I'm wrong about this,

393
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: but I just don't think. I mean, I think he's

394
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: gonna need a game at least, and but we'll see

395
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 1: how that all plays out this week. Today is usually

396
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 1: a day of rest for him. We've seen players not

397
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: practice all week and play and they prove that with

398
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: their offensive line. And I think he understands the importance

399
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 1: of this game. But they also have to think about

400
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: long term too, you know. So I don't know if

401
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 1: it's long term. I think you got to decide can

402
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: he physically play? Just how mobile can he be? With me,

403
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: He's got to sprain the ligament, right, let's face it. Yeah,

404
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 1: so depends on what the great of it is. Yeah,

405
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: I just don't I just don't see him doing it.

406
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a tough guy and he's played with

407
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 1: he's played with some serious injuries in his career, but yeah,

408
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: I just don't. Again, the mobility factor is not real

409
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: kid right now. You know you always and I know

410
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 1: if you can't do it, you can't do it. But

411
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 1: you always talk about the Super Bowl injury or sports.

412
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: They're always very everyone's ready to go and ready to

413
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 1: nobody on them. And you know, as Dak has said,

414
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: this is playoffs for the Cowboys right now. Yeah, it's

415
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 1: been playoffs since the Washington game. Yeah, I think David

416
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: Irving's done for the season. I said that yesterday. Mickey Well,

417
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: I was going to ask before we get to David Irving. Yeah,

418
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: Tyron Smith, you know, even if he feels like there's

419
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: a chance he could go, would he continue to go

420
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: if he could, if he if he can physically do it,

421
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,360
Speaker 1: he'll go. Yeah, if you can put a brace onde

422
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: in and go. But if you can't, you can't. I

423
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: think it can't just be his decision. I think the

424
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 1: tray athletic training staff, the coaches have to look at

425
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: him and just evaluate him and maybe a game time

426
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:39,919
Speaker 1: thing I mean, we'll see it could go all the

427
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 1: way down to a warm up on Sunday, and they've

428
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: got to look at him too and say he's not

429
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: he can't be functional. And we also, like Mickey said,

430
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: you don't want to risk something further, Well, no, yeah,

431
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: you don't want to keep all those things in mind.

432
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: You don't want to get into game where you're dealing.

433
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: You know, you're dealing with with the way that Seattle

434
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 1: rushes like Frank Clark, who's nixt splosive player to that side.

435
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,360
Speaker 1: You know, you don't want to be compromised because if

436
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: you are compromised. And I saw some people say, oh,

437
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: eighty percent Tyron Smith is better than one hundred percent

438
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: Byron Bell. Trainers don't think like that that. Trainers are

439
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: trying to think, hey, get the get the healthy guy

440
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: on the field, don't. Don't And coaches the same way.

441
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: You don't want to compromise, you really really don't. You

442
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: don't want to say, oh eighty I mean, guys play hurt,

443
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: they'll they'll just go through it. I mean, I think

444
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys on this team right now.

445
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: They'll tell you there's a lot of a lot of

446
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: banged up guys in December. There are a lot of

447
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: banged up guys. It probably should be on the injury

448
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 1: report that aren't on the injury report. And there's a

449
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: difference between being banged up and being hurt being injured.

450
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: And I think about has an injury that could really,

451
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: you know, complicate the way he can function out there. Yeah,

452
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: I mean if he if it compromise to the point

453
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 1: you got to help him, you might as well just

454
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: help Byron Bell out. Yeah. Yeah, now, David Irving, we

455
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: can get to that now that we've exhausted the Tyron

456
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: Smith issue. David Irving out for the season. Question Mark,

457
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: what do you guys think? I said, doesn't sound good.

458
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: I don't know why it's lasted this long. Yeah, I

459
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: think there's to me this is when you look at

460
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 1: this and I mentioned this yesterday. We do a show yesterday.

461
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: I think, yes, we did, Yeah, we did a show.

462
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of something that if you have a bit

463
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 1: of a history with these with concussions, and maybe you're

464
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: you know, again, this is something I'm just talking here.

465
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 1: I'm not saying this is David Irving, but you know,

466
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: coaches and trainers are only as good as when the

467
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: players tell them what's wrong, you know. I mean they

468
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: rely on if a player is injured and he tells

469
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: the trainer or the coach, hey, I'm hurt, then they

470
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 1: get treatment. If they don't tell them that, then then

471
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: they go out. They go through the the day or

472
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: the couple of games or whatever, and all of a sudden,

473
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, I was hurt two games go. Wait,

474
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: why didn't you tell me you were hurt two games ago? Yeah?

475
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: Now now we're figuring this out. So I think there's

476
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: I think that we're dealing with. David Irving was probably

477
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: a little banged up, and and all of a sudden,

478
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 1: now it's like, oh, wait a minute, now you're you've

479
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: got this and so and then other things happen and

480
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 1: you get more banged up, and then it becomes more

481
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: of a severe deal. So I I, yeah, I would

482
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: not be surprised. I'm sorry I didn't clearly say what

483
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 1: I need, you know, but get what I'm trying to

484
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: say here. You know, I thought it was strange how

485
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: Jason answered the question about him too, and then he

486
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 1: say something like, you know, a lot of this in

487
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 1: the concussion is how they answer questions questions. Right, still

488
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: banged up? I mean he's not all there. And so

489
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: how severe is the concussions? This is a big thing.

490
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: I mean I know in this team. Again, I could

491
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: speak from this team because I know the trainers and

492
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: doctors here we all do you know, They're not going

493
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: to put hurt players on the field. It's not gonna

494
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 1: do it, no matter how important the game is. And

495
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 1: if he can't convince in them, he's okay, he's not

496
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 1: going to convince an independent exact checker. It comes through, yeah,

497
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 1: because I know what you're saying, Brian. You know they

498
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,719
Speaker 1: they don't tell him right away. And it's an interesting

499
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: dynamic because you think, on one hand, man they're just

500
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: trying to help their team short term, but then long

501
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: term it's not gets worse, it gets worse, It gets worse,

502
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, instead of maybe taking

503
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 1: care of it earlier, you're now on the back hand

504
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 1: and the trainers are going, we'll wait a minute, okay,

505
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: well so we should have let you sit a week there.

506
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 1: Now now we're gonna make you sit a week here.

507
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,880
Speaker 1: And it just only gets where these concussion things are

508
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: not something to be messed with and everybody was talking

509
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: about Rico, and Rico had a you know, almost a

510
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: broken jaw and whiplash. You know, He's like, oh, it's boy,

511
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: it's been a concussion. Why is he You know, we're

512
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 1: all we're all you know, we're all kind of conditioned

513
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 1: to Russell Wilson going into the tent for one play

514
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: and coming out and finishing the game. Yeah, that's not

515
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: the way reality. It's not like they're asking him the

516
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 1: question how many fingers do I have up and he

517
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: can't get it right. No, No, this is severe stuff.

518
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: At one time heard someone discussing, you know, the concussion

519
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 1: and not just in football, but just in general, and

520
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: it's he said, it's funny, you know when someone goes

521
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: down with an injury these days and we tell them, oh,

522
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 1: it's a concussion, they're like, oh good, just a brain injury. Yeah,

523
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, because that's what people forget, you know,

524
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: they think, Okay, the standard sitting time for a concussion

525
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: is one week. Yeah, but there's a lot of different factors,

526
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 1: especially individual factors, that could play into it. You know,

527
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: if someone's had more than one concussion, things like there's

528
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: a history there. Yeah, and but but it's it's on

529
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: the player to make sure that the medical staff knows

530
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: what's going on. When you think about specifically this matchup, boy,

531
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: they could use him. I mean you think about the

532
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: inside guys, Yeah, they're interior offensive line's absolutely that's not

533
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: having him. That's that hurts. Yeah, sure it does. He's

534
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: not able to go now, Lyle Collins. You know, we

535
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 1: saw him last week get back into practice more so

536
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: at the end of the week, and he had the

537
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: past two games before that. So probably just another rest

538
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: Wednesday here and hopefully we'll see him tomorrow back probably

539
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: limited on the injury report, but at least doing something more.

540
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: And I think he's feeling better. Yeah. I don't want

541
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: to ever speak for someone especially Oh, he's played really well. Yeah,

542
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: I mean, and you know, there's I've had people I

543
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: don't know about true guy's timeline. Had people asked me

544
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,479
Speaker 1: about him being a Pro Bowl snub. You know, I

545
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,399
Speaker 1: don't think necessarily that's the case. I think a guy's

546
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 1: played well. He had his struggles early in the scene,

547
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: he's gotten better as it's gone on. So yeah, I mean,

548
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,400
Speaker 1: I think we've I think we've all been very very

549
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: aware of saying, hey, no he's gotten better. You know,

550
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: he is one of the better linemen that they have.

551
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 1: You know, he's done a great job. He's he has

552
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: He's faced a lot of quality rushers. Yeah, and come

553
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: out for it better and considering what's happened to him

554
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 1: practice wise, well he might be an alternate. You know,

555
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: you never know that as far as the Pro Bowl

556
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: and Brandon Brooks from Phillies on there. So yeah, we'll

557
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: see for Lyo Collins, Anthony Hitchins, he is also absent

558
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: from today, but you know it has sounded more optimistic

559
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: with him returning. Did Garrett say exactly what it was?

560
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 1: Rob He's got a sprain posterior cruciate ligament, and he

561
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: said he will play. He had said it got much

562
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 1: better since Sunday. He's amazing. Remember we almost thought we

563
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 1: lost him during the Elastic Man. Yeah, we almost tring

564
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: training camp. It was like, oh my gosh, there goes

565
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: your mic linebacker. Yep. And then all of a sudden

566
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: it was like he and he went from you know,

567
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 1: it went from like a full year injury to just

568
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: a few weeks and then well it was actually four

569
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: or five games. Yeah, but got back for the Green

570
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 1: Bay game. Yeah, but but it was. But it was

571
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: so strange that because you thought I thought it was

572
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: a style. He is done. Yeah, you know it is.

573
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: He's off, you know, and he does he but I'll

574
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: tell you he has a he has a tremendous history

575
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: of being ready to play when needed to play in

576
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: big games. Oh my gosh. His rookie year. His rookie year.

577
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: Remember he plays against the Cults. I'm watching him on

578
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 1: the field, watching him warm up because they're saying game time, decision,

579
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: and he can't walk. But he's out there doing drills.

580
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: And the next thing you know, he has like a

581
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: Sean Lee game against you know, and then the Cowboys

582
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: win the division and you know, I'm thinking, I'm looking

583
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: at Anthy Hitchings. I'm going, oh my god, son, you know, congratulations,

584
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: you're you're you're a big time football player. And he's

585
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: always been able to answer the bell when he when

586
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: in big games. You knew it from the moment the

587
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: first offseason when we got drafted and Sean gets hurt

588
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: and they asked him, you guys, I wasn't there at

589
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 1: that point, but are you ready to fill his shoes?

590
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: He said no, He was honest, but he said, I

591
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: will be and he wound up playing every spot at linebacker.

592
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy is just the consummate pro. And

593
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: he had an injury a few weeks ago after he

594
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 1: came back from the knee where he got banged up. Yes,

595
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: and he came back and played the next week. I mean,

596
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: you know about one of the toughest dudes on the team.

597
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: When they when they draft did him. We got a

598
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: call on talking Cowboys from some guy in Iowa. Yeah,

599
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: and he said, you got one of the best linebackers

600
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: in the draft, no doubt. And that was the same

601
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: year his linebacking buddy from Iowa got drafted pretty high.

602
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: And this guy was telling us that he's is every

603
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 1: bit he's good. They just worry about his size, like

604
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: what position could he play? Well, we found out he

605
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 1: can play every one of them. Yeah, and he's going

606
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: to get a contract. I'm sure the Cowboys hope it's here,

607
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: but somebody's gonna pay him after this season. Yeah, And

608
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: what he's been able to do for this team is remarkable.

609
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: But I'm happy to hear that he would be good

610
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: to go this week, which is always positive. Let's get

611
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: into Pro Bowl snubs. You guys think anyone was snubbed

612
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: on this team or you think it would panned out

613
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: just right. I wrote about Chris Jones yesterday and to me,

614
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: if you're going with a fifth cowboy because four got in,

615
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: I would say him. And there were a couple of

616
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 1: stats that really support that, just crazy stats. We kind

617
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: of talked about here him. Well, we mentioned how many

618
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: return yards against him this year fifty five and that's

619
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: the lowest in the league. And you look at the

620
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: guy who's number one, it's Shane Lechler in Houston, four

621
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy three. I mean, that's insane. And it

622
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 1: speaks to actually the number of punch return which is

623
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 1: only fourteen this season. Really, that's basically the lowest in

624
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: the league. There's a couple higher. Detroit's got two punters

625
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: that have split time that have had a little less.

626
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 1: But it speaks to the coverage units, it speaks to

627
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: the way he places the ball, hang time, all those things,

628
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: and then he factor in what an athlete he is

629
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: on top of it as a fuel position weapon, great

630
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: holder too. Yeah, I think Mickey spoke to it yesterday.

631
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 1: You look at his net and it's fifth or something

632
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: in the NFC, But there's other things that go to it.

633
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he there have been games this season where

634
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: he's been maybe their best weapon on the field. Didn't

635
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: we feel like the he and Switcher were the big

636
00:31:56,120 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: winners of the Arizona game. Remember remember Dallas couldn't do

637
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: anything and they kept and here here's Arizona running a

638
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: ton of plays, ton of yards, and he just kept

639
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: punting them back, punting the field. He kept flipping the field,

640
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: and finally the Cowboy offense woke up and it was

641
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: Switzer's returning and Jones flipping the field. You know, I

642
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: asked somebody about this. You know, we've he's such a

643
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: great directional punter that teams Kansas City tried to run

644
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: the fake where they put two guys deep and fake

645
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: like that. There the ball is gonna go to one

646
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: guy and then everybody goes to the guy who's faking,

647
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: and then the guy who's the catcher takes off running.

648
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: They don't worry about that because if if, if, if

649
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: Basachi says snap, snap left, punt right on one, you

650
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: know they it's gonna be punted to where he's you know,

651
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be shanked over to the other side

652
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: or something like that. They tried to get the ball

653
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: in Tyrek Hill's hands, Yeah, and yeah they didn't and

654
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: Frazier didn't fall for it. Yeah, I know where where

655
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: gonna Yeah exactly. That's that's the kind of thing when

656
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 1: you have we talk about guys in this team that

657
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 1: are so good at their jobs that you don't even

658
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: think about it. I even think about it. You do

659
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: not think about you don't think about it. Used to

660
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: be now a little bit Dan Bailey, I mean we've

661
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: now kind of creeped into the who was Dan Billy?

662
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 1: Okay questions, but but the injury. But that's what I'm saying,

663
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: Sean Lee, LP LP guys that are so good at

664
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: your their jobs, you just automatically assume Travis Frederick, Yeah,

665
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 1: Travis Frederick, Zack Martin Exactly. These are guys that are

666
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 1: so good at their jobs that you don't even think

667
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 1: about it. I think you could talk about Chris Jones

668
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: that way. I really do. The fact that he heck,

669
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: he threw a pass as on a fake that was

670
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: on the money across right hash all the way to

671
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 1: left sideline, and it should have been a first down

672
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: if if Butler doesn't decide to push off. I mean,

673
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: that just shows you the capability that he has. But

674
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: this was predictable because when people vote, they look at

675
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: they look at the average, net average, total average. They

676
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: don't look and say, oh, they played fourteen games and

677
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: an eleven those games the opponent didn't have more than

678
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: five yards of returns. Think about that. Five yards that

679
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 1: was the high and eleven of fourteen games. And this

680
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: is not twenty sixteen with the Dallas Cowboys led the

681
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: league in holding the football and first downs, and they

682
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: had to punt a lot more today than they had

683
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: to punt last year. And he and he you know,

684
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 1: they had some stretches there where he was going out

685
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: there quite a bit. Yeah, and not having people returned

686
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: the ball. That tells you something about him. Now. The

687
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: only thing I'll say is that Johnny Hecker from the

688
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: Rams is the punter selected to the Pro Bowl. They

689
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: only choose one, so it's a very hard position to

690
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: get into the Pro Bowl with. But you know, you

691
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: never know where the Rams are going to end up

692
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: in the playoff picture. If they go to the NFC

693
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 1: Championship Game, if they go to the Super Bowl, if

694
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: Chris Jones is an alternate. You that would be highly likely,

695
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: I think in this situation. But I don't know whose

696
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: neck and neck with him if the coaches, the coaches

697
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: get to select, if that comes down to that, whoever's

698
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 1: coaching the game. I think it's a runner up type thing. Okay, okay.

699
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 1: If that's the case, that hopefully he'll get in. But again,

700
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: Mickey's right, they'll look at the stats and not look

701
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 1: at the fact that he doesn't give up any His

702
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: nets really good, he doesn't give up any return yards,

703
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: he's you know, he can hold. I mean, all these

704
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,280
Speaker 1: things are very positive positive about him. Was the voting

705
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: done by Sunday Night? I probably was, because I'm telling you,

706
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: you make a play like that in a nationally televised

707
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: game at any position that opens people's eyes and that

708
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 1: could have impacted the fan voting if they saw that

709
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: fake fake. The fan voting was I think done by

710
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: the way done by them. Yeah. When Shaun Lee had

711
00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 1: his amazing game in twenty and sixteen against the New

712
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: York Giants, everyone was like, I hope everyone was seeing

713
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,760
Speaker 1: this for Pro Bowl voting, right, And then of course

714
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 1: you know he was an alternate. He was an alternate

715
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: with Dez make a big play. Yeah, you make a

716
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 1: big play on Thanksgiving or these Sunday night games. It

717
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: can it can change everything. We used to say that

718
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: about like Terrence Newman at cornerback when he was here.

719
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 1: You know, it's steady Corner never made the Pro Bowl.

720
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 1: If he'd gotten a pick six, you know, before a

721
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: nationally televised audience, who knows, maybe he gets in. Yeah,

722
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 1: Bryce Butler, what do you guys think about Bryce Butler's chances?

723
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: A lot of people are asking on Twitter about where

724
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: who he will end up in the rest of the season. Picture,

725
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 1: it's got to get on the fields. It sound like

726
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,359
Speaker 1: he's going to do something today. He was out there.

727
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 1: He was out there. That's what planner fasciitis is that

728
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: which he tried to well yeah, yeah, I mean you

729
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 1: know they keep giving him a shot. Yeah, and it's

730
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 1: the area where it's getting affected of the shot, right,

731
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: that's not an easy thing to do that. I've watched

732
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: people get shots in their feet and it's it's in

733
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: the toes and stuff. It's and it makes you cry.

734
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: It ain't a little kind of sill and show either. No, Well,

735
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 1: that injury is like the pain of it. It's like

736
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: walking on needles, you know, it's as a receiver, it

737
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: can certainly limit what you're trying to do out there. Yeah,

738
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: so yeah, I would. If he's gonna practice today, I mean, hey,

739
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: good for him. I mean he's gonna try and give

740
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: it a go. But at least he tried it out there.

741
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: Give him that Scandrick was out there. Yeah, he was

742
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 1: doing some drills ahead of time. Sean Lee was doing

743
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 1: his drills when they were doing special team stuff. So

744
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 1: that was a good sign. The thing that's interesting about

745
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: this team now they've gotten used to practicing without the guys,

746
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: you know, the guys that they give rest to. The

747
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: team knows, Okay, you're gonna get Byron Bell at left tackle,

748
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna get Chaz Green at right tackle. Those guys

749
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 1: get Wednesday work. Nothing wrong with that. You know, MC

750
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 1: gives him a little bit more, you know, gives him.

751
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 1: You know, when Byron Bell had to go in the

752
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 1: game the other day, you know, he wasn't a welcome Matt.

753
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: You know, that's that's encouraging right there. You know, if

754
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: you're gonna get practice time on Wednesday, take advantage of it.

755
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: If you have to play in these games. I think

756
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 1: I think it happened with a Woozier. I think they

757
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 1: saw a Woozy at practice when things were kind of

758
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 1: not normal. They saw him in practice. It's like, well,

759
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: this is gonna start. Let's see what he looks like,

760
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: you know, and then now boom, he's taken. He's taken

761
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: the role and moved on. So let me tell you,

762
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: let me be honest too about this. The way that

763
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: the way that lewis those guys, and this is not

764
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: my ax to grind bit, this is truthful. The way

765
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 1: they're playing on defense in the secondary. I don't know

766
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: if I just immediately put Scandrick back in there, I

767
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: really don't. I mean, it sounds very ax to grind,

768
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: and I'm not being that guy. I'm just saying, though,

769
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: it is your defense tougher in the back end at

770
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: the point of attack with those with those two young

771
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 1: kids stepping up and playing the way they are perfect

772
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,359
Speaker 1: place to stop. Hold you guys on a hanger, because

00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:53,400

820
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 1: a price like that, and veggie's and pepperoni like that,

821
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: it's Papa John's. Before we win to break, Brian asked

822
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: a very important question about this defense maintaining with no Scandrick,

823
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: So gotta hear Rob and Mickey's response before we get

824
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 1: to Rob's twitter poll. What do you guys think about

825
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: this statement? Well, I said it yesterday. I I like

826
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 1: the way these young corners are playing physical, tough tackling,

827
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: especially Cheeto. You know, he's just you know, he's got

828
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: the body type and they're not backing down from anybodies.

829
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: But even that, he talked about the Marshawn Lynch hit yesterday.

830
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: He said, Marshawn loud I threw the ball at him

831
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 1: and stuck his tongue out at him. You know, it

832
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: was kind of a welcome the NFL moment. But he

833
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: didn't back down, and that's kind of what's the word

834
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 1: kind of represented what he's been about since he's been back.

835
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,320
Speaker 1: But I do think having Scandrick back that experience, the

836
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: way he can read defenses, seeing things out there, I

837
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 1: think that certainly can't hurt. Now. I don't know how

838
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 1: that impacts the rotation because I think you still want

839
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 1: to keep these young guys playing. But he's gonna play

840
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 1: for Lewis if he goes plays, He's not going to

841
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: play for a woozy a right, And then they should

842
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: just leave him there. Yeah, no, and then be moving

843
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: him in the slot and bringing somebody else in. Just

844
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 1: give him one thing to do and that's it. And

845
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,359
Speaker 1: by the way, you know, Marshawn Lynch could have done

846
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,879
Speaker 1: all that, but he didn't go forward after he got hit.

847
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 1: Got hit sideways, and Cheeto made sure everyone knew that

848
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: because the Raiders posted on their Twitter accounts the play

849
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,359
Speaker 1: and said welcome to the NFL, you know, kind of

850
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: like hinting at that, and Cheeto quote tweeting and said, yeah,

851
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 1: but he ain't got no yards after contact. Yeah, he

852
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: was kind of a fifty fifty play, honestly, but he was.

853
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 1: He was funny about it. He He said, I had to

854
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 1: get up quick. I couldn't I couldn't sit down there

855
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: and let him laugh at me. Yeah, I had to

856
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: bounce back up. It was a good stalemate. Now, and

857
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: you think that Marshawn Lynch is just amazing at trash talk?

858
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 1: Oh maybe the best? Maybe the best? Yeah, one of

859
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: the best, one of the best for sure. Well, Rob

860
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,799
Speaker 1: your Twitter poll. It brings up an interesting topic that

861
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 1: everyone wants to know, Ezekiel Elit's return. He only needs

862
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventeen yards left to get to one thousand,

863
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: so that's your question. Yeah, despite having missed I calculated

864
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 1: it because I'm a nerd forty three percent of the season,

865
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 1: he could still get that magic one thousand yard number.

866
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,800
Speaker 1: It would average out to one oh eight point five

867
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: in these last two games. Can he do that? What

868
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: do you guys think? Mark me down? You got it?

869
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 1: One o eight point five or two? Yeah? Per game? Okay?

870
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 1: Are they still in the playoff hunt going to Philadelphia?

871
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 1: Are you thinking if they're not what he sit? Yeah?

872
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a good question of mine. I

873
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: are am I right? Mickey? They might sit the quarterback. Yeah,

874
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. And say, Okay, Cooper Rush, let's

875
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: see what you got I totally agree. Well, if you're

876
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: saying one away, you know he's only hit that's that

877
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 1: three times this season really in his eight games he

878
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 1: had one sixteen against Screen Bay, one forty seven at

879
00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:01,760
Speaker 1: San Francisco, and one fifty Washington at Washington. So I'm

880
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,440
Speaker 1: I'm all for if if the two games means something,

881
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 1: absolutely yes, if games, if the final week of the

882
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 1: season means absolutely nothing, I need to figure out what

883
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: I think. I have an understanding what rod Smith is,

884
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 1: but I'll go ahead and start rod Smith and play

885
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: him the whole game, absolutely if there's nothing to play

886
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:22,959
Speaker 1: for against nothing to play for, And I might even,

887
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: like you say, if Tyrn Smith, if if he doesn't

888
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 1: play this week and it means nothing next week, I

889
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 1: don't see you again the rest of the year. Hey

890
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 1: what I mean? You know everyone's talking about how crazy

891
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: this week and how he could go. You know, they

892
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 1: want to see him go for two hundred yards. I

893
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: would be highly surprised if that happens. But I agree,

894
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: I think if both of these next games means something,

895
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you could see him go for one fifty

896
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 1: this week and maybe trying to think who Philly would

897
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: be playing, you know in week seventeen because it matters

898
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 1: for them too. If they're playing their starters are not sure, Yeah,

899
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 1: that could factor in two because they've already got a buy, right,

900
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 1: they do the first round by, but they don't have

901
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 1: home field advance, don't have home field yet. Minnesota's lurking there. Yeah,

902
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 1: who do they played this week? They've got Monday night

903
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: football against the Raiders and it said home though Raiders

904
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 1: are done. So when I was asking someone after they

905
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 1: clinched the first round by, it's too long of a

906
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: night I was asking. I was somebody who is in

907
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: executive football operations and I said, hey, okay, so if

908
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: they have the first round by, he said, that means

909
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 1: that they had clinched home field advantage because they would

910
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 1: be one in two. No, not right, not right, So

911
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: how does that happen? They've got one of the two spots.

912
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: They're still playing. To get home field throughout, you got

913
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 1: to have the best record. But they're right now, they've

914
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 1: ensured themselves at least the second spot. Yeah, there's two buys,

915
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 1: two buys. Yeah, that's what they were saying. So, yeah,

916
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 1: we'll see this a weekend. Everybody who the Vikings playing

917
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: this weekend. Uh who the Vikings got all look it up?

918
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 1: Well I should know this though we have gone over it.

919
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,839
Speaker 1: Is it somebody that we need them to win? It's

920
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 1: the Packers? Yeah, Aaron Rodgers, Oh that's right, that's right,

921
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 1: the Brett Huntley Show. Yeah, that that's that's a no care.

922
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 1: But see, the Vikings have to win. The Vikings have

923
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: to win that game because again they're trying to get

924
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 1: home field too, and they would love it. They's home

925
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 1: field for them means more probably than Philadelphi. Yeah, Ragnar, Yeah,

926
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: who Ragnar? Matter that? It's your team, your quarterbacks, laying prone, Viols,

927
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 1: Vick folesh not good, not a good environment for opposing teams.

928
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:37,520
Speaker 1: The answer Cowboys fans have total faith and Zeke eighty

929
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: eight percent say yes, he was one thousand yards by

930
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 1: the end of the season. Wow again eighty eight percent overwhelming. Yes,

931
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 1: after you miss six games. Pretty good. They saw those

932
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 1: shirtless pictures. So nine one thousand yards in nine in

933
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 1: ten games is pretty good. A thousand yards in sixteen

934
00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 1: is whole home to me, It's like seventy eight. I

935
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: think the NFL record is fourteen straight games of one

936
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,840
Speaker 1: hundred yards. I think it's set By. If I'm not mistaken,

937
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,839
Speaker 1: that's Barry Sanders or Eric Dickerson, one of the two.

938
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: I could be way wrong about that, but I think

939
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 1: it's fourteen. Well, if it's not them, it's might be

940
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,799
Speaker 1: Marcus Allen too. I'm sorry, it might be Marcus Allen

941
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:23,959
Speaker 1: Walter Payton. Yeah. Wow by the fans saying that, really

942
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: eight he's missed a lot of time fresh legs. Yeah, well,

943
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,399
Speaker 1: but again they have to be playing for something. Yeah,

944
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: I'm not throwing him out there in a meaningless game.

945
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I know he's missed six games, but you

946
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,359
Speaker 1: know what I'm thinking about. All Right, let me see

947
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: what my young guys I've got. Let's get through the season.

948
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: Then let's get into the draft mode. Let's keep everybody

949
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 1: as healthy as possible. You know, you don't want to

950
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 1: go into two thy and eighteen trying to figure out

951
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: what happened. He's got to have this or have that.

952
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:53,880
Speaker 1: You know you don't want to go through. And then

953
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: I'll ever give everybody an opportunity to say, oh, the

954
00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 1: Cowboys win eight and night again. Yeah, yeah, that's I

955
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: don't care what those Yeah, I don't care. This different

956
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,919
Speaker 1: circumstances this point in time. It's in this point in time.

957
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 1: It's really about the playoffs. That's it. And you know what,

958
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 1: you might go ten and six and not get in.

959
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 1: Still happened to the Jets two years ago. Yeah, it happens.

960
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 1: I mean, oh, it's the odds of that happening are

961
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 1: better than not happened. It hasn't happened often. I looked

962
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,160
Speaker 1: it up. It's happened four times since the NFL realigned

963
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 1: divisions in twenty two thousand and two, and one often

964
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 1: did One time the Patriots miss at eleven and five. Yeah,

965
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 1: it was the year Castle filled in for Brady. How

966
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,880
Speaker 1: about that. You're sitting there, You're like, oh, but the

967
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: four times I was looking just only at the NFC NFC. Yeah, yeah,

968
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 1: you're right. I think it was O five. Maybe that's

969
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 1: crazy sitting here. I think this might be an obvious answer,

970
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 1: but some people may differ. What is the one Cowboys

971
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: loss you wish you could take back sitting here today?

972
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 1: Is it Falcons? Is that the most obvious one? Here?

973
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 1: Go back? We answered that last week the Rams I

974
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,400
Speaker 1: had that game won. No, but she's thinking about for

975
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:00,400
Speaker 1: the seat for playoffs I'm thinking for playoffs. If you

976
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:02,839
Speaker 1: had won that game, you're in better shape now than

977
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 1: you're nine and five, right, Yeah, but if you're Rams

978
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:09,399
Speaker 1: over Falcons. That's what I'm saying though. I mean, I'm

979
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 1: trying to think of the Falcon. They were never in

980
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 1: the Falcons game. Yeah they were. It was close at halftime. Yeah,

981
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,240
Speaker 1: I had a nice drive. Look, I think the coaching staff,

982
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:19,759
Speaker 1: everybody shares blame in that they've They've said, hey, we

983
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,400
Speaker 1: could have done we could have done more to adjust

984
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: to the way they ski with their left hand. That's fine,

985
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,800
Speaker 1: but they scored thirty points against the Rams and got beat.

986
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 1: That's the worst loss of it. But the Rams average

987
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,919
Speaker 1: thirty plus. Go back and listen to the show after

988
00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,360
Speaker 1: the Rams game. I guarantee you I said this loss

989
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:40,359
Speaker 1: is going to come back and home. Oh sure, you're right,

990
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 1: But you make it sound like it's the winless team

991
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:45,759
Speaker 1: that they lost to. I mean, what are they going

992
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,400
Speaker 1: to be the best conference right now? And they may

993
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 1: finish ten and six. The Charger loss is bad. Yeah,

994
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: Charger loss was six team. Yeah, that was to a

995
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:57,840
Speaker 1: forward six team that was kind of looking for a

996
00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 1: place to put their head down and go to sleep, say, Atlanta,

997
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: take for what you just said. I mean, that's a

998
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 1: that's the head to head tiebreaker. There might be what

999
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 1: bites you in the end. And they had they were

1000
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:09,320
Speaker 1: competitive in that game until the second half. He didn't

1001
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:10,920
Speaker 1: lose to the Rams. You might not be in a

1002
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:15,400
Speaker 1: head to head situation, right, Why, it's a good discussion.

1003
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 1: That's where you feel, then that's where you feel. That's

1004
00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 1: what you have to think there. But I just think

1005
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 1: the Falcons won because that first half you thought that

1006
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,439
Speaker 1: there was something was the first game without Ezekiel Elliott too.

1007
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 1: You had Ezekiel Elliott in that Rams game. What I'm

1008
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: saying is, if you had had that one back, you

1009
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 1: might have said, Okay, we're not going to go on

1010
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 1: this three game losing streak. Maybe you would have felt

1011
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 1: better going in that Eagles game. Yeah, I'd love to

1012
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: have had him for the Eagles game. I'd love to

1013
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,359
Speaker 1: have I'd love Anthony Brown to intercept that ball right

1014
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,760
Speaker 1: before half when it was maybe maybe making sixteen lettering

1015
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 1: up in the air. Yeah. Yeah. Did you hear Anthony

1016
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 1: Brown post game on Sunday when they were talking to

1017
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,359
Speaker 1: him about it a little bit. I was in there

1018
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 1: for a second. He said I went wrong and I

1019
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 1: tried to catch it with my body. And I was like,

1020
00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 1: is this Terence did? He said that? Good for him, Yeah,

1021
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: because that's what But he wasn't saying it at Terrence Williams.

1022
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:06,960
Speaker 1: He was just saying, you know, hey, you know, yeah

1023
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 1: you were. I was like, is anyone else hearing this?

1024
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:13,839
Speaker 1: He said he would try, you know. He said what

1025
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 1: I did wrong was I was cradling it instead of

1026
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: going up for the actual catch. You know, that's fundamentally

1027
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 1: wrong to try to catch with my body. And I

1028
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 1: was like, oh, are there the picks when you're wide open?

1029
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 1: And it's the quote unquote just catch this one. I'm

1030
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,839
Speaker 1: not making excuses for him. Oh no, wide open. It's

1031
00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 1: just such a case. Well and the worst part was

1032
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 1: is that he read it right and broked on it.

1033
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 1: It was a perfect shape and he didn't exactly what

1034
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:41,840
Speaker 1: he should do drive on the ball, and then he

1035
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,440
Speaker 1: dragged game is over. Catch it. We're not. We're not

1036
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,439
Speaker 1: talking about Jeff Heath goating and all that like that.

1037
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:53,120
Speaker 1: I mean, well, and Anthony Brown needs that. I feel like, yeah, yes, yes,

1038
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,520
Speaker 1: confidence we talked about Yeah. Coach even said it you

1039
00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: know sometimes he lacks confidence, and so that would have

1040
00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 1: that would have definitely helped. Is the green Bay loss bad?

1041
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 1: Considering what you know about green Bay? We both rogers, man,

1042
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:09,719
Speaker 1: both of them were bad. You scored thirty points, So

1043
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 1: that's all I can say, So you shouldn't. You should

1044
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: not lose when you score thirty points. Oh they lost

1045
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 1: in the playoffs when they scored thirty points. You should

1046
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 1: not lose. I would go back and say what I said.

1047
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,319
Speaker 1: I think when you're playing prolific offenses, you have to

1048
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,160
Speaker 1: overcompensate because I know I remember you saying, make you

1049
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: that week, you're gonna have to score forty points. That's right,

1050
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,760
Speaker 1: and they almost You can't just score thirty points. Actually

1051
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: that that's a loss. You got to win those games? Yeah,

1052
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 1: I will. I still the Charger wins the worst when

1053
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 1: you score nine points passed, Yeah that was pretty bad.

1054
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 1: But you only scored nine? Right with the Chargers? Which

1055
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 1: game did they score nine? Like three in a row?

1056
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:48,800
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, So you deserve to lose those

1057
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: You had no shot, you didn't score any points. It

1058
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 1: was just bad bad. I don't know if I like,

1059
00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:58,480
Speaker 1: do you ever deserve to lose a game if you

1060
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:03,720
Speaker 1: score nine points, Yes, sure you do. You haven't mentioned Denver, Denver,

1061
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: you wish you were playing them this week? That was

1062
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 1: You know, I might go with Denver because that one.

1063
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 1: You didn't recognize the team that lost. I mean, they

1064
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:14,239
Speaker 1: just they couldn't get anything going in the running game,

1065
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 1: and and it just snowballed on him, you know, and

1066
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 1: then you see what Denver's been since then. It's just

1067
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,640
Speaker 1: now it looks worse and worse. Yeah, the Eagles game

1068
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 1: was the nine point game, and then the Chargers game

1069
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,839
Speaker 1: was the six point game. I'm not gonna win any

1070
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:30,839
Speaker 1: of those, are you. No, it hurts. You know. We've

1071
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:32,879
Speaker 1: seen the Cowboys win a seven six game one time.

1072
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:39,760
Speaker 1: It's Washington one time one time, and we their kicker

1073
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 1: went down. Yeah, Elliott was down for the Eagles. Oh,

1074
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: there's two games where they had the kickers and char guy.

1075
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 1: Remember they had that hilarious video. Well remember that hilarious

1076
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: video of their punter trying practicing the kicks on the

1077
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,080
Speaker 1: side and he he hit it way past the net

1078
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,800
Speaker 1: and the coach said, he's not doing our field goals today.

1079
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 1: Vicky's right. The worst thing that happened was all of

1080
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 1: a sudden, they had to start going for it. Oh yeah,

1081
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 1: helped him. Helped the Eagles that scored like five more points. Yeah,

1082
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: but no, I will say about the Chargers game indifferent,

1083
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:12,960
Speaker 1: is that that seemed like it was going in a

1084
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 1: different direction the first half. The Eagles and the Falcons,

1085
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:19,320
Speaker 1: they were close in that first half. Yeah. Yeah, from

1086
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:22,760
Speaker 1: from the jump. They couldn't They couldn't stop the rivers

1087
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 1: in the passing game. Receivers were running free. And I

1088
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 1: don't know. You know, Sean Lee missed that game, but

1089
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,799
Speaker 1: I don't know what difference he would have made over

1090
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 1: the course of that football game, change every other game.

1091
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 1: I know that, I know. But a lot of it

1092
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:37,880
Speaker 1: had to do by the way we didn't act. We

1093
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,680
Speaker 1: didn't mention him as being snub for the Pro Bowl.

1094
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 1: He just missed too many games, did he? Yeah? Yeah,

1095
00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: but look at the games the games he missed, in

1096
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 1: the games he played, what was the difference. He might

1097
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,040
Speaker 1: be the most valuable player in the league right now?

1098
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:54,760
Speaker 1: That's fair. Nicky might be onto something. Yeah, I wouldn't

1099
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:56,560
Speaker 1: argue with you on that. I mean, isn't wag didn't

1100
00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: Wagner miss a bunch of games this year or not.

1101
00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: It was he just banged up. He banged up. Ye see,

1102
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 1: I'll be wagner. Though. You're talking about loss seventeen to

1103
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 1: six against the Rams. Okay, and you were getting the

1104
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 1: football in the second quarter. He didn't fumble the balls

1105
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 1: out what you're saying, that's what you're not going to

1106
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 1: forgive that kid or you know, even though he brought

1107
00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:16,400
Speaker 1: that one ball back for you, you're not going to

1108
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 1: forgive him for the season. I had to do is

1109
00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:20,359
Speaker 1: catch it. They were gonna go down and score again.

1110
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,760
Speaker 1: They were gonna be up twenty four to six hadn't

1111
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,400
Speaker 1: been stopped. Yeah, when they were rolling. If the Rams

1112
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 1: make the Super Bowl, I don't think I'm gonna call

1113
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 1: this a bad loss. I'm sorry. They look like the

1114
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:31,960
Speaker 1: best team in the conference right now. I'll talk. They

1115
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 1: didn't look like it. They didn't look like I'll tell

1116
00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:36,840
Speaker 1: you what though, offensively, I think Rob's onto something and

1117
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,120
Speaker 1: they've got what the both did both their kickers make

1118
00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,400
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl or just the one kicker zerline make

1119
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. Let me see, yeah right here, because that's

1120
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,960
Speaker 1: what happened. Us Hecker made it. A Hecker was a putter,

1121
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,239
Speaker 1: but Zerlines the field goal kicker. Well remember that game

1122
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:54,120
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys. It was like, this is the kicker

1123
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,919
Speaker 1: of the year. Yes, Greg Zerline did make a kicker

1124
00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,160
Speaker 1: and punter made it. That's a pretty complete team right there.

1125
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 1: I think the Steelers had eight. How many did the

1126
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 1: Rams have? They have five? Of course, Farrell Cooper, Aaron Donald,

1127
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:09,400
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley, Farrel Cooper. There's your special teams guy. Cooper

1128
00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:13,279
Speaker 1: Cup didn't make it. No, not Cooper Cup. We we

1129
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:17,240
Speaker 1: got a little dose of Farrell Cooper. In forty years,

1130
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:19,839
Speaker 1: it has never happened where two running backs from the

1131
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,520
Speaker 1: same team have both made the Pro Bowl, not being

1132
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:27,320
Speaker 1: alternates of course. That is mark Ingram and Alvin Carr Kamara.

1133
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,000
Speaker 1: That's amazing how different the Saints are this year. Just

1134
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 1: a different that they ran the bro just I mean

1135
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,319
Speaker 1: they're kind of a run first. Really running the ball

1136
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 1: makes it different. But it's been that's a grand thought

1137
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:43,279
Speaker 1: in the show for years. Oh it has Breeze still

1138
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 1: made it. Yeah, it's made It's made Sean Payton a

1139
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:50,239
Speaker 1: better play caller. The ability to run the football has

1140
00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:52,960
Speaker 1: helped them so much. And the fact that they could

1141
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 1: throw it to Kamar on third down. It makes it

1142
00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:58,840
Speaker 1: even better than that. Yeah. Yeah, it's amazing. It is

1143
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,239
Speaker 1: that group right there. What does Kamara do? Does he

1144
00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:04,440
Speaker 1: run it in the end zone? He finishes? They had

1145
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson at the start of the season. Yeah, that's

1146
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 1: all you need to know. How about that? And they

1147
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: started oh and two as well? Was another is second

1148
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:15,319
Speaker 1: in the league and scoring Yeah, seventy four points. Yeah,

1149
00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 1: here you go. Well, maybe Zeke can catch up to him.

1150
00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 1: This only eighteen behind, So stay with us. Three touchdowns.

1151
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,840
Speaker 1: We will be back tomorrow for much more coming from
