31
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: he said. He said, that's what is that? That's that's

32

Speaker 1: the going to be getting paid at least sixty a year. Yeah.

36
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: Now it's even crazier because baseball baseball is didn't get

37
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: spot and I know this is a football podcast, but

38
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 1: just gotta hit this real quick. Were you thinking should

39
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: play baseball. Nick, thinking about it, you would be he'll

40
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: be playing, he'd be a part of that Mariners postseason righters. Baby,

41
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 1: we'll talk plenty of about this in the future. But

42
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: I mean you think about Aaron Judge and what he's doing,

43
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: and then shoho tani. I mean he's got two hundred

44
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: strikeouts and thirty four home runs himself. I mean those

45
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: are two guys that baseball has not seen in hundreds

46
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: of years, I mean a long time. At the same time,

47
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 1: it's really really cool time for baseball. By the way,

48
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: gives me a platform to to go ahead and do this. Beamer,

49
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 1: if you could take my my single camera here once again.

50
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: I know this is a baseball show or a football show.

51
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: It was not in the Rundown, No it wasn't, but

52
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: this is this is a foot ball show. However, I

53
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: realized last night that I have a family member, a

54
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 1: long lost brother, Corey. We've had some great times. Corey,

55
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: yeomans who caught the sixty second home run ball for

56
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge. It's been a long time. I just I

57
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: miss you. I think we need to hang out. By

58
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: the way, I know you don't remember this, but you

59
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: owe me fifty thousand from that one time he made

60
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 1: it bet as a kid time to go. Yeah, that

61
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: one time. But just hit me up if you ever

62
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: need anything, Corey. That's all I'm doing. So you know

63
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: how they always say, like when you make your money,

64
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: your family comes out of the woodworks. So here I am.

65
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: How do he make it home? The security? Did you

66
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: like four cops or he walked about the building but

67
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: they didn't take him home. He's also kind of like

68
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: social media. That's the thing about social media, Like now,

69
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: like for the time he caught it to the time

70
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: he walked out of the stadium, everybody knew what he

71
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: looked like. So how did you go from outside the state?

72
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: How do you go from inside the stadium to your

73
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: car or to an uber or to whatever you're gonna do.

74
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: I'm willing to bid you because you see what he

75
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: does for a living. He's well off, at least enough

76
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: to the point where you know, security probably helped him.

77
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: He's a p for an investment firm. Yeah, so security probably.

78
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: He's definitely gonna say that's what I mean. He he's

79
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: not giving that ball back and he was enjoying holding

80
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 1: his you know, two to five million dollars, baseball and

81
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: the beach by Friday, you know, as the Mets would know.

82
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: We got to move on. But what would you do

83
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: you caught Aaron Judge's ball, he asked for Hey, can

84
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: I get the ball back? Now? You hobously about my

85
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: opinion now that what would I honestly, what would you do? Man?

86
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: That's my ball where I mean my rubles. Life's been

87
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: hard generationally, my paper, right, let's talk, Let's let's talk.

88
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: Let's descut. I'm not giving it back, You're not giving

89
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: it back. I love Aaron Judge too. I think he's

90
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: a great player. But I mean, it's it's in my possession,

91
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: you know. Or honest I think I think I would

92
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: agree if I would handed that over, like I truly

93
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: believe that I would probably give the ball back, but

94
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: I would just do it under the condition to say

95
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 1: I I would hope that the Yankees would would would

96
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: take care of me. I say, I would say, hey,

97
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: I don't think I can hold onto it, so I'm

98
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: gonna give it back to you. But I just in

99
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: good faith, I will hope that you and the Yankees

100
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: would take care of me. Handshake, I can hand no, no, no,

101
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: interference of opinion. No, absolutely, That's why I asked the question.

102
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: But I just don't see. I'm a good man. Yeah,

103
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,799
Speaker 1: I don't, No, sir, No, sir. I understand my ruber.

104
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: I understand the opportunities, and I think that Aaron Judge

105
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: and everybody else understands kind of the sequence of events

106
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: and how they were prepared for this, right. And that's

107
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: why I say, hey, here you go, Here you go, bro, like,

108
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: just take care of your boy. Let me ask this's

109
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 1: the price of the ball go up or down the

110
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: more days you get from it the actual hit. I

111
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: bet it goes down a little bit until it kind

112
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: of gets to a spot where it's stagg and I'm

113
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: sure it probably goes down a little bit. So I

114
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: would sell it quick. It's what I would do. But

115
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: let me ask you this. The Yankees never took care

116
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: of him. The Rangers never took care of him. Nobody

117
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: ever took care of him. He had to buy his

118
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: own ticket to get into the building. And he caught

119
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: the ball. I don't care what happens. Give me that's

120
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: my ball. Ball. You can have it back whenever I

121
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: give it back to you. No, not gonna happen's talk.

122
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: Same thing with the tom Brady ball that was given

123
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: to him, the three hundred touchdown, that was like giving

124
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 1: the fan. Yeah, he didn't take care that. He didn't

125
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: take care of him the same point season tickets for

126
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: like two years. Yeah, that's not it until if he

127
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: lives in text. They gave him what I think he

128
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: Tom Brady ended up giving him like a big coin

129
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 1: or something like oh congruens, yeah, which is worth and

130
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: it went down. Yeah, and I'm not looking great right now. Scholars, yen, euros, rubles,

131
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: run me all of it. Man's got options. Yeah, good

132
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: for him. All right, enough for this, Let's talk news

133
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: and notes. Dallas Cowboys back on the practice field today

134
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: after an off day yesterday. We got some news about

135
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: a deep snapper. Yeah, there's an injury we did not

136
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: cover yesterday on the show. Actually, we're went upstairs afterwards

137
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: and found out Jake McQuaid long snapper, expected to be

138
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: out for the season with a torn triceps. And if

139
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: you go back and you watch the All twenty two,

140
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: it's the last punt of the game. Uh, Derek Forrest,

141
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: I think for the Commanders is punt rushing trying to

142
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: block the punt and McQuaid kind of wrestles him to

143
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: the ground and when he gets back up, his left

144
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: arm is just limp as he's running down in the

145
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: field on the on the punt coverage. Still, what kind

146
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: of he tried? I think he got about ten yards

147
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: and fell down like this hurts. Yeah, now give him credit.

148
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: So they are having to adjust, and they signed or

149
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: expected to sign too long snappers to the practice squad

150
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: by before practice Matt Overton and Tucker Addington. It's not alp.

151
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: LP was not among the four workouts yesterday. I think

152
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: he's really need to work out. He wasn't signed though

153
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: eighteen years in the league. Maybe not yeah now, but

154
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: I think very sneezing LP gets signed winnings at the

155
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: front door. Go hold on, guys, Yes, there's there's a

156
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: certain there's record out there. You extra. That's a very

157
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: important position, though very very important position outline because most

158
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: people are gonna write it off as oh, it's just

159
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: just a specialist. He's not even a kicker or a punter.

160
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: Listen here, the kicker and the punter don't get the

161
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: ball right unless this dude snaps the ball accurately every

162
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 1: single time. Much like the holder is important. I know

163
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: Cowboys Nation remembers how important holder is. You don't do that.

164
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: I'm just saying the important. It's true, right, the just

165
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: as as much as emphasis is put on the holder,

166
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: the snapper is just as important because you need that

167
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: ball to be in the same place every single time,

168
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: because you are literally operating out of what's the term

169
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: I'm looking for, muscle memory. Yeah, it is. It's muscle memory,

170
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: not only as a snapper, but as the holder too,

171
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: and the kicker and the punter. Everything's timing. It's just routine.

172
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: It's freaking routine. That's what I'm routine like. Everything is routine,

173
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: Like you don't even think about it, like it's just

174
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: it's instinctual. Well, it's exactly to the point that you're making,

175
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: is what I mentioned on media matching, what I mentioned

176
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: on the Heels of the Team parting ways with LP.

177
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: For a lot of people that say, oh, long snappers

178
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: don't don't matter, if they absolutely matter for all of

179
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: those reasons. And you you're also talking about guys bearing

180
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: down on you and gunners coming. It's fractions of a second.

181
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: So if you know the holder or the punter and

182
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: anger have to do this or you know, to the

183
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: left by a fraction or to the right by a fraction,

184
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: up by If it's not then on every single time

185
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: it messes up, the technicals watch close people are they

186
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: blocking field goals and extra points almost every plane in Yeah,

187
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: it's just watching how close? I mean you're talking about

188
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: a tenth of a second difference and the most field

189
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 1: goals are blocked. Yeah, and it's it's the only position

190
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: in the NFL too, where you can't mess up at

191
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: all or you're gone. Like even kicker, you can miss

192
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: a few kicks and they'll kind to stick with you

193
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: if you have like two bad snaps, they're looking for

194
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: somebody else. And that's why what LP did for so

195
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,439
Speaker 1: many years was so impressive. Man like you never and

196
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: it was about it and it was perfect. You know,

197
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: the phantom created penalty in Washington notwithstanding, it was perfect.

198
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: I mean Elpi had a perfect career and to be

199
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 1: able to do that is inhuman. So you know, long

200
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 1: snappers matter. And the only thing we can say is

201
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,719
Speaker 1: because Nui asked me yesterday, what's am I concerned? Yeah,

202
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: I'm concerned until I'm no longer concerned when it comes

203
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: to the long snapper. Now, I'm probably one of those

204
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: people who are typically unreasonably concerned when it comes to

205
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: that particular position. But of course it goes to what

206
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 1: you know, Isaiah said, fractions of a second routine and

207
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: also trust between the holder and the long snapper, the

208
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 1: punterer and the long snapper. All of that stuff has

209
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: to be re established now with these new guys. And

210
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: they've signed two, which tells you that they're still trying

211
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: these guys out going into two of the more important

212
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 1: games as far this season. So I'm not saying hit

213
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: the hanic butting over the long snap of what I'm

214
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: saying is it is most certainly something to keep an

215
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 1: eye on. I don't think it's happening. I know it's not.

216
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: He's trying to chant l I was mad they took

217
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 1: that that record away. It's not gonna happen. So they

218
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: got two guys on the practice squad, expected to officially

219
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: be for practice and then they'll make a decision. Also

220
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: expect expect McQuaid to go on ir and Will Greer,

221
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: especially assuming Dak will not play this week, which hasn't

222
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: been ruled out, but that's probably the expectation will greer.

223
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 1: He's out of practice squad elevation, so they'll bump him up,

224
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: sign him to the active roster. A couple more injury things.

225
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: James Washington is eligible to come off IR this week.

226
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to happen yet. Damon Clark

227
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 1: can start his practice window about this week. Talk about it,

228
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: and I think that's a possibility. Hit it, Yes, talk

229
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 1: about it. I excited. Isaiah's more excited about Damon Clark

230
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: coming back than he was Jason Peter. Right, I can't

231
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: wait to see long snap. Can Jason Peter's long snap.

232
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: I just want everybody to go home and just google

233
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: theman Clark. Google him, just google him. Don't look at

234
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: his LSU pictures. I want you to look at all

235
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: the head shots that they have of him and a

236
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys practice uniform and just look at the intensity

237
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: on his face and tell me that's not a man.

238
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: That not that one. It looks pretty intense even smile,

239
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: But looking at him right there, that's what I'm talking about.

240
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: On the other one, talk about this one, right that

241
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: one right there, zooming on that one, about that, yeah,

242
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: zooming on that one and doing one shot on that

243
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: one beamer. I don't know if I can do that.

244
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: You gotta make the bigger. That's a um. So this

245
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 1: guy is intense. I've had conversations with this younger specimen. Jesus,

246
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: that's a specimen. He's a large human. Yeah, he's a

247
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: very large human. That's very athletic, very fast. I know

248
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 1: I was standing on the table yelling for you know,

249
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: Nakobe Deane before you know when the draft stuff happened.

250
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: Very absolutely right. So he's a basically but the value

251
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: that they got with him, first of all, kudos to

252
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: the training staff for what they discovered. Kudos to the

253
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: obviously the front office for trusting the training staff and

254
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 1: trusting the process and getting him taken care of, still

255
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: drafting him, still getting him in surgery, all those kind

256
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: of things, and then they're nursing him back to health.

257
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: And now you have a very viable option adding more

258
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: to DQ. You add a DC to a DQ, and

259
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: you're just that much strong lizzard and you're getting somebody. Now,

260
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 1: obviously he has to come out here improve it. He

261
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: hasn't had any reps, all those kind of things. He

262
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: has to get his legs underneath them. All that. But

263
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: he's been obviously working with the training staff and all

264
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: those things getting back in condition. It's not football conditions,

265
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: so he'll need a ramp up period. But I think

266
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: that he's going to be huge, not only for the

267
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 1: special teams because that's where he'll have the most impact immediately,

268
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: but in terms of your packaging, what now can you

269
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 1: do package wise if you add him to the active

270
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: right and you roll him in there. Now you talk

271
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 1: about speed pack just you talk about being able to

272
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: have guys at the second level that can run and hit.

273
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: And I'm excited about this, and I'm excited for him

274
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: because I remember came of conversations with him. He was

275
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: beyond frustrated and he had never been a mirror. We

276
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: had some conversations and I just told him, I say,

277
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: if you ever need anything, just hold at me, because

278
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: I've been through injuries. Bro like the mental the psychology

279
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: that it takes to overcome that, right, We've talked about

280
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: it in the documentary, but it takes a lot. Yeah,

281
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: and especially when you come in and you're ready to

282
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: have an impact. I came in having had surgery, right

283
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: and had to come in and learn and all that

284
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: kind of stuff, So you feel like you're lesser than

285
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: you feel like you're detached from the team. You feel

286
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: like you're not a part of everything that all the

287
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: success that's going on. So that's what he's coming into.

288
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: And he just wants to go out there and have

289
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: fun and run around and play and remember who he

290
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: used to be. Right and needless to say, I mean

291
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 1: me being an sec guy, I've seen plenty of Demon Clark,

292
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: just like I saw Pride to him, I saw plenty

293
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: of your real Clark, so forth and so on. Demon

294
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: Clark is different, different, like a human being with that

295
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 1: size should not have the ability to be that much

296
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: of a quick twitch athlete, Like his quick twitch is ridiculous.

297
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: His ability to read close and react is insane. And

298
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: like you said, kudos to the front office and also

299
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: the medical staff. And it's a it's a fantastic situation

300
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: for Demon because he's coming into an organization that unfortunately

301
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: is well versed in neck issues. You talk about toron Smithy,

302
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: talk about Lvee here recently. Now LV is out there

303
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: playing just fine, knock on wood that he continues to

304
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: do so, but they're not afraid to take a risk

305
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: on a next situation. So now the procedure has been done,

306
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: Demon is clearly ahead of schedule. There was something they

307
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: were wondering if this was going to be a red

308
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: shirt season for him. Obviously not. His window is potentially

309
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: going to open us early as today, and if all

310
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: goes well, then he could in fact be activated. And

311
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: now you're talking about Michael Parsons and Demon card. Oh,

312
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: dan Quinn bar just goes on and on, and they

313
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: look at who's playing in front of that unit, then

314
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: look who's playing behind that unit. The rich get richer

315
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: when it comes to dan Quinnon's defense, Ladies and gentlemen.

316
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: Like he said, if google Demon Clark beyond just the

317
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: intensity of his smile right, go back and look at

318
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: his LSU tape. The kid is not even a kid.

319
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: He's an adult male and he is an absolute monster.

320
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: And if he can hit his stride anytime soon for

321
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, I grief, Charlie Brown. I like the optimism,

322
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: I really do, and and honestly, I'm there with you

323
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: in terms of he's a good player. He was the

324
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: top sixty guy from me prior to knowing about the injury.

325
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: He was the number eight linebacker in my list of

326
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: draft prospects prior to knowing about the injury. The injury

327
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: gives me a little bit of pause, but luckily they

328
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: went in and cleaned it up. I don't think it's

329
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: going to be an immediate impact because even looking at

330
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: your guy, the Kobe d the Kobe Dan, he I mean,

331
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: he was as good as anybody. He was my number

332
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 1: one linebacker, number fourteen player overall. Guess what he's done

333
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: in four games in the NFL. He said, one tackle.

334
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: That's it. No sacks, no interceptions, no PPUs, no pressures, nothing.

335
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: He's had one solo tackle in his first four games.

336
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 1: Give it a little bit of time. I know the

337
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: hype train is there. I'm with you. I think he's

338
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: going to be a good player, but let's not get

339
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 1: carried away that he's going to be a game changer.

340
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: If he hits they start the window, they give him

341
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: three weeks to ramp up, and if he gets on

342
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 1: the roster, like, yeah, I'm kind of with you, Like

343
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 1: I think like it took Anthony Barr a nice little

344
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: ramp up period, and I think he's probably getting Yeah,

345
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 1: and he's a four time pro bowler and there's been

346
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 1: no it's a it's a transition to the league plus

347
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: the injury, plus you know, ramping back up. So I

348
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: think it'll take some time. But yeah, he had no

349
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: business being a fifth round draft pick just now. I mean,

350
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: I think long term, you should be really excited if

351
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 1: you're a Cowboys fan. But really, if he's activated, um

352
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: within his twenty one day window, I could see Damon

353
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: Clark making some sort of impact, not only on special teams.

354
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: I think he will make an impact on special teams

355
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: sooner than he would on defense. But I could see

356
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: him making some sort of impact for dan Quinn on defense,

357
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: you know, come December, when the game's really start to matter. Now, yeah,

358
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he had like al you know, I mean,

359
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be hard to have a career game as

360
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: a rookie because you know, you have one. Say, guess what,

361
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: it's a queer game. But I think he'll make an

362
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: impact in some way, shape or form on defense as

363
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: early as December, assuming that he saw that from Jabril

364
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: Cox prior to the injury. He was ramping up and

365
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 1: getting better last year prior to him. Daniel Jones knows

366
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,640
Speaker 1: that got from season ending. Yeah, he does, Yes, he does.

367
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 1: So really quickly before we go to our first break.

368
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 1: So if you are on IR so to Mum Clark,

369
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 1: James Washington, and you get out, you can be on

370
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 1: the practice field for how long prior to the twenty

371
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: one days? So three weeks? Yeah, you have to be

372
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: activated within that window, or if you're put on there,

373
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: or you go right back for the season and you're done,

374
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: you can't come back. Okay, So keep that in mind

375
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: when especially with James Washington, He's probably not going to

376
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: start a practice window. He's probably gonna need that practice

377
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: window more than anybody, right, I think from a wide

378
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: receiver standpoint, we saw that when Michael Gallup took him

379
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,199
Speaker 1: almost three weeks to ramp up without actually going on

380
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: to IR. So, all right, when we come back, let's

381
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: take a look at how this Rams offense can challenge

382
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense. There's a ton of weapons still on

383
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: that Rams offensive side of the football. And is Alan

384
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 1: Robinson finally going to wake up for them on the

385
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 1: outside against this cornerback room or are they going to

386
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: shut him down when we come back with more talking

387
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: Cowboys right after this. When you build, you start with

388
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: the foundation, and homeownership is a foundation of a stable future.

403
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: a nonfunctable token something Doctor Todd thought it would be

404
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: secure to jog in the cheetahs. Savannah Todd believed the

405
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: big cat repellent he bought online was reliable, and now

406
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: Todd is trying to be faster than this cheetah that

407
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: can run eighty miles per hour. But the good news

408
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: is Todd has at and T five G. It is fast, reliable,

409
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: and secure, and he learned the best thing to do

410
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: is stop running and toss her the backpack with the

411

Speaker 1: the Cowboys defensive matchups gonna look like wall to wall Wednesday,

434
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: and they go wal to wall so far because they

435
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 1: have not allowed a whole lot to this point. One

436
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: of the best defenses in the NFL. But you feel

437
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 1: like you're playing a sleeping giant, right The Los Angeles

438
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: Rams right now coming in just haven't figured it out

439
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: on offensees sound familiar, but their defense is still very,

440
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: very good. We'll talk about the Rams defense tomorrow. But

441
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,439
Speaker 1: when you take a first look at this Rams offense,

442
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: what are your initial thoughts. I don't think it's as

443
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: bad as what the La Times headline was this morning

444
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: that they're a or Monday morning that they're a predictable mess.

445
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: Just getting after Sean McVeigh. No, please don't put in

446
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: the city of Angels, right, because you said it in

447
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: the break like they're gonna figure it out. He's gonna

448
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,479
Speaker 1: figure it out. I think I don't think it's as

449
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: bad as it looked. I mean, I think protection wise,

450
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: it was bad on Sunday night or Monday, but they

451
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 1: got to the red zone three times. They moved the

452
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 1: ball and they got nine points out of three red

453
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: zone trips, So you left twelve points on the board,

454
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: and I think they're capable of doing more than that.

455
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,360
Speaker 1: Although they're facing a tough Cowboys defense this week. They've

456
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 1: got to get some more balance in their offense. And

457
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: it's not just the passing game. We touched on the

458
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,679
Speaker 1: number of targets to two guys in their whole offense.

459
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 1: They got to get back to running the ball. And

460
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 1: there were some some moments in the game on Monday

461
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: night where you're like, I think Eli said it on

462
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: the broadcast with Peyton, like it might as well be

463
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 1: a sack. You're trying to run the ball. They get

464
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: some kind of balance going, and you get a two

465
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: yard loss and they just can't get anything going between

466
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: Henderson and Acres, and that's you got Matt Stafford throwing

467
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: forty eight times that's not conducive for anything in terms

468
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 1: of balance. See, unfortunately for them. You know, the Cowboys,

469
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 1: they know very well that they need to improve this

470
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 1: run defense. And you go back and you listen to

471
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 1: the sounds of the sideline, and one of the biggest

472
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,959
Speaker 1: things that I took away from that was DeMarcus Lawrence

473
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: being upset that the run defense was not what it

474
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: should have been up to expectations. So you have a

475
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,199
Speaker 1: team leader like that, a unit leader like that who's

476
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: just beating the table all week in practice and meetings,

477
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: basically saying, we have to make sure that we don't

478
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,640
Speaker 1: allow the Rams to get Acres and Henderson off, otherwise

479
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 1: our secondary is going to have a long day. So

480
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: this is the Cowboys defense that also has been doing

481
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 1: very well in clamping down in the red zone. You

482
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: talk about the Rams only being able to convert those

483
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: three red zone trips for nine points and leaving points

484
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 1: on the field, Well, they are, like you said, they're

485
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: going against the Cowboys defense that is routine ly stingy

486
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: and that area of the field. So it's not going

487
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,479
Speaker 1: to get any easier for the Rams. And then now

488
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: you talk about the offensive line, which we mentioned on yesterday,

489
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 1: really briefly, they were down to a backup center who

490
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: is actually a guard moved to center, and Shelton Sheldon

491
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: goes down with injury. Turns out he's going to be

492
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: out for forty six weeks. He's not coming back, so

493
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: it's probably going to be colony. Right, So, now you

494
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,640
Speaker 1: got a third string next to a couple of backups

495
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: at arguably the most important portion of your offense, which

496
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: is the interior offensive line. If the Cowboys can just

497
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: win those personnel matchups like they should and fairly I

498
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: don't want to say that the E word easily, but

499
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: fairly handedly let's put it that way, then the Rams

500
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: are not going to be able to run the ball

501
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: and that's going to force Matthew Stafford into a forty

502
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 1: five plus yard or forty five plus attempted game, and

503
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: that plays right into the hands of Dan Quinn and

504
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: this defense. So looking at some of the top targets

505
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: that have been against the Cowboys so far, Terry McLaurin

506
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 1: last week, two receptions for fifteen yards, so shut him

507
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: down completely. From a Cowboys side of things, I'm not

508
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: even gonna look at the Giants weapons because I don't

509
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: know who you even tab as their number one guy,

510
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase in Week two against Cincinnati or five receptions

511
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: fifty four yards, so he's still got a decent chunk, right,

512
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: still decent but overall, yeah, very good. And then week

513
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: one Mike Evans had five for seventy one and a touchdown,

514
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 1: really the touchdown, and there was like one drive in

515
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: there where he had success. For the most part, Dallas

516
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: has had a really good done a really good job

517
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 1: on the edge of slowing down these top targets. Why

518
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 1: is this different though? With Cooper Cup most targeted in

519
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 1: the NFL by like fifty targets since Week one of

520
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: last year over Tyreek Hill, He's had two hundred and

521
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: eighty seven targets since Week one last year. Tyreek Hill

522
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: is second in the NFL with two hundred and thirty.

523
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 1: Cooper Cups still getting his yardage, still getting his receptions

524
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 1: even though they know the football's going his way. Why

525
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: is that different than some of the other opponents of

526
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: Cowboys have faced, Because you get Cooper Cup can run

527
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 1: routes from all over the place, and him McVey puts

528
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: him in so many situations to be successful. There's it's

529
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 1: really hard to scheme him up. If you go back

530
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: and watch any of the film last year, this year,

531
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: or whatever year you want to in regards to Cooper Cup.

532
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 1: This dude's outside, he's inside, he's stacked, he's on the ball,

533
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: he's off the ball, he's out the backfield, he's in motion,

534
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 1: he's shifted. You don't know where the hector's dude is

535
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: that so you can't scheme him up versus Mike Evans,

536
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 1: where he's gonna be at outside, jamar Chades, where he's

537
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 1: gonna be at in the slot or outside, Like, it's

538
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 1: pretty predictable in terms of game playing. Okay, if he's outside,

539
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: this is what we're doing. If he comes at the slot,

540
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: this is what we're doing. Cooper Cup. There's so many,

541
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: there's formations you can't even you got to create names for.

542
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: Let these guys come out in and they're doing it

543
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: just because you can't. You can't scheme him. You can't.

544
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: You can't in and out him, you can't man and

545
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: man him, you can't zone him. He's gonna get the ball.

546
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: What you want to do is it is simply just

547
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 1: make sure that he doesn't get behind you. That's the

548
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: biggest name of Cooper Cup. Cooper Cup's gonna get ten catches.

549
00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: He's gonna get ten catches. Cut are gonna throw the

550
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: all to him fifteen times, and it's just it is

551
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 1: what it is. Yeah, twenty times and the nineteen times

552
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: last week. So you accept that there's certain guys that

553
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 1: are just going to get the rock because they're just

554
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: that good. Cooper Cup's the top five receiver, much like

555
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 1: Mike Evans and March. Those guys are really good. But

556
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 1: those guys are limited because of how they utilized within

557
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: their offense. They're able to make big plays from those

558
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: particular positions. Versus Cup, he make plays from anywhere. How

559
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: does Dallas combat that though? Keep them in front of you,

560
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 1: keep them in front of you, and like you said,

561
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: stop the running game. You can't shut I don't know

562
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,959
Speaker 1: at the time anybody's ever shut down Cooper Cup. I mean,

563
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: it hasn't happened since last year, That's what I'm saying,

564
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: Like you, just it's hard. It's a hard guy to

565
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: shut down. He's everywhere, and you just accept the fact that, Okay,

566
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 1: he's just keep them in front of us, let him

567
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: have the ball. Just don't let them get past of

568
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 1: your hard markers, right, Yeah. Because the great example is

569
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: the last drive in the Super Bowl, Like everybody knew

570
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: where it's going in it didn't matter. And that's why

571
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: part of me's like nineteen targets, will I kind of

572
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: get it, like he is always open, I mean ninety

573
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: five percent of the time. The guys he's he's created space.

574
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: Even when he's not open, he's open. Yeah, But the

575
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: pick six at the end was a product of you

576
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 1: don't have enough balance in your offense, and they Sanrancisco

577
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: knew where the ball was going, and they a great

578
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: anticipation and they are random play a thousand times that day.

579
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: So that's one of the reasons why that the times

580
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: are probably getting on McVey right now, because not only

581
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: did they not distribute the ball evenly enough throughout all

582
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: the different options they have on offense, but they were

583
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 1: running a lot of the same type of plays. They

584
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: ran a ton of screens, a ton of outside screens,

585
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: so it was very easy to read. Those indicators were

586
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: easy for the defenders. He's gonna have he's going. Mcvay's

587
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: such a competitor, he's gonna mix it up, right, So

588
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 1: you just want to limit what they can do. Shut

589
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: down to run, keep cup in front of you. Don't

590
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: let Al Robinson getting no dog on confidence, because that's

591
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 1: not the guy you want to get confidence this week

592
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: because he can't hurt you. Right, he has shown the

593
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: ability regardless of what he's done this year. He's still quick,

594
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: he's still explosive. I don't care what the reports are

595
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: about that guy. Just don't let him start catching a ball.

596
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: Is this kind of a long time coming sort of

597
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 1: deal for Sean McVay though, and Matthew Stafford Because you

598
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 1: look back at the start of last year or all

599
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: of last year, Matthew Stafford was tied with the most

600
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 1: interceptions in the NFL with Trevor Lawrence. He threw seventeen

601
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: picks last year. Now he threw forty touchdown passes, so

602
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 1: it makes up for it a little bit. But he

603
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: had seventeen picks last year, tied for the most. Right

604
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: now he has the most with six in four touchdowns.

605
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: He hasn't had a season where he's thrown more interceptions

606
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 1: than more touchdowns since his rookie campaign with the Lions

607
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: back in like oh nine. So is this just finally

608
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: teams are starting to read it. I know last year

609
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: he threw the most amount of interceptions and they still

610
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl. But is this something that's a

611
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: problem for the Rams that's even bigger than what the

612
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: Cowboys are going to show out this week? Well, I

613
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: think you're writing that Stafford will throw it up. I mean,

614
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: he's done it throughout his career. He's gonna take chances.

615
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: I think I think the pick at the end was

616
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: a product that was a safe throw. That's just like

617
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: I think copy at nine times out of ten. Yeah,

618
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 1: and a lot of those screens. I think you look

619
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: back to the Washington game against the Cowboys, they screened

620
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: a ton and it's because they didn't trust their protection

621
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,479
Speaker 1: and they're trying to get the ball quick out as

622
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: fast as possible. And I think that's some of what

623
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: McVeigh was trying to do in that game. You look

624
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: at the one that he almost got picked in the

625
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: end zone to Higbee. You know, if he missed a

626
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 1: lot of throws. He did miss some throws, and if

627
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: he on that one though with his progression, he might

628
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: have had Henderson for a touchdown if the protection was

629
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: there just a tick longer. There's probably about three throws

630
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: that I could think of right off the back in

631
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: that game where he just wishes he had that ball back, Yeah,

632
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: because guys Higbee was wide open. I think couple was

633
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: opened on a few Like there was a couple of

634
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 1: balls where just like Dang released the ball wrong, you know,

635
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: and it's like those are yeah, I mean, and they happened, right,

636
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: it happened. But those are plays like they're leaving plays

637
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: on the fields. So I don't want to make it

638
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 1: seem as if these guys just they're just trash, are terrible.

639
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: They their offense is not clicking there at the bottom

640
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: of the league, and every dog on the category offensively

641
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: right now. That is the total opposite of what we've

642
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: come to know about the Rams and McVeigh and Stafford

643
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: in his time with the as a Ram, he's gonna

644
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: he's missed some throws as a competitor, as a professional,

645
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: you go back and you make those corrections. As a

646
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: defense for the Dallas Cowboys, you want to continue to

647
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: do what you've been doing. It every other team forced

648
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: Stafford to be in the same situation he was in

649
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: last week where he wanted to where they had to

650
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: change offensive scheme because he can't sit back there and

651
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: throw the ball. He has to get it out on

652
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: the edge. Just they have to get the ball out

653
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: of their hand quickly. You shut down the running game.

654
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: You limit them to, you know, to these type of

655
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: quick throws. Now you can start a process of elimination

656
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: in terms of what they can and can't do. I know,

657
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 1: as a defensive back, I can sit at ten yards

658
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: and come downhill because they're not gonna have the ball

659
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 1: have time to throw the ball beyond me, right, So

660
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: you want to limit them in that regard so that

661
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: you can start making plays. Dallas does what they've been doing,

662
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: they'll be perfectly fine. But you still have to respect

663
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 1: the fact that not only are these guys capable, we've

664
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: seen it, and we've seen it last year and they've

665
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: had a lot of change offensively in terms of offensive line.

666
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 1: You guys just touched on that. They are hurting there.

667
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 1: You know, nobody's talking about You're wet Worth either, Yeah,

668
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,959
Speaker 1: to retirement and that that's what you need is if

669
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 1: you're the Cowboys, you need to make sure that you

670
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: understand when it comes to Matthew Stafford, you need to

671
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 1: shorten his clock. If you shorten his clock, he will

672
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 1: give you the ball. If you shorten his clock, he

673
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: will give you the ball. That is that is the

674
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: blueprint from Matthew Stafford. And you talk about protection or

675
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: lack thereof the reason they're leaving plays on the field,

676
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: it's it's not by accident. It's because the clock has

677
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: been shortened, so he doesn't have time to go through

678
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: the progressions to see what he's seen later on film.

679
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: All guy, you know, I should have hit Higbee here.

680
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: I should have. You know. The reason he can't in

681
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: real time is because guys are bearing down on him.

682
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: This is also a Cowboys defense that has yet to

683
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: allow twenty points in a game. This plays into the

684
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 1: Cowboys favor because, first of all, again respect the Rams

685
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: and what they can do, because Matthew Stafford could easily

686
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 1: come out of being an all pro on any given Sunday.

687
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: But this is how you keep prevent that from happening.

688
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: But also this Rams defense or offense, I should say,

689
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: they've only scored twenty points or they score twenty points fewer,

690
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 1: and three of their first four games ye ten points

691
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: or fewer. In two of those first four they're simply

692
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're asleep, or if it's a

693
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 1: combination of them being asleep trying to jar themselves awake,

694
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 1: or if it's simply you don't have the horses up

695
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: front to give you the time to find to let

696
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup get behind you, right, because in order to

697
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 1: run a goal route, to get behind your safeties, the

698
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: quarterback needs time in the pocket to deliver that ball.

699
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,359
Speaker 1: And when you don't have it, those goal routes, those

700
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,760
Speaker 1: would be goal routes, didn't become hooks and flats and screens,

701
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 1: and the field starts shrinking vertically and then you can

702
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: tee off. I think you nail that. I think that's

703
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: what's happening with Carson. Carson Wentz has guys that can

704
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 1: make plays down the field. They just didn't give them

705
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 1: any time the last couple of weeks, and Marcus Mosher

706
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 1: put out on Twitter, I think their lowest big play team,

707
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: the Rams are right now. It's sixteen explosive play so far.

708
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 1: That's that's a product of the protection. Probably and we've

709
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,320
Speaker 1: met I think you teas Alan Robinson and he's a

710
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 1: new guy in the in the offense, and they just

711
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: maybe it's just a matter of connection nut clicking yet. Yeah,

712
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,280
Speaker 1: I've got some really interesting stats about how this RAMS

713
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: team is different than what it has been under Sean

714
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: mcvagh in the past, and I'm gonna hit it on

715
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 1: the other side of the break. And we're also going

716
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: to talk about how can this pass rush take advantage

717
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: of that RAMS offensive line when we've come back with

718
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: more talking cowboys presented by Black Rifle Coffee Company. Todd

719
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: thought it would be secure to jog in the Cheetah Savannah.

720
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 1: Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought online was reliable,

721
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,280
Speaker 1: and Todd is trying to be faster than this cheetah

722
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 1: that can run eighty miles per hour. But the good

723
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:35,800
Speaker 1: news is Todd has AT and T five G. It

724
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: is fast, reliable, and secure, and he learned the best

725
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,840
Speaker 1: thing to do is stop running and toss her the

726
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 1: backpack with the beef stew At and T five G fast, reliable, secure,

727
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,359
Speaker 1: It's not complicated. Five G requires compatible plan and device

728
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 1: five GMI not be available in your areas. He att

00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: sea let's say that. Yeah. I think it's luxurious, no doubt,

762
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: even opulent. Great, Yeah, kind of almost gaudy with this.

763
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,840
Speaker 1: Can you get me mad? Everyone and y'all gonna have

764
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 1: one of them? Here's I can I can get it enough?

765
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 1: Is this from the old studio like whenever they got Julie.

766
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: At this point, you just gotta be Julie. Yeah, we

767
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: have like three extras of the Ski Christmas Christians. I

768
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:39,280
Speaker 1: like it. That's from Jip Jazz's desk Hey, Jip Jazz,

769
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 1: All right back here, final segment here talking Cowboys. Chris Beam,

770
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 1: you just heard him, Rob Phillips, Isaiah standing back, Patrick Walker,

771
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 1: Kyle Yeoman's all right. With the Cowboys win this week,

772
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: Sean McVay will be under five hundred for the first

773
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 1: time after Week two or later. In the entire time

774
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 1: of his tenure as the head coach of the Los

775
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams, he's never had a losing record. Actually, the

776
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: worst record he ever had was in Week sixteen of

777
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, he was eight and seven. That's the worst

778
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 1: record he's had as the Rams head coach after week two.

779
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 1: So it's been a while since the Cowboy or since

780
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: the Rams have been under five hundred, and the Cowboys

781
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:19,319
Speaker 1: could get him there with that moving into this week now,

782
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: you also talk about the way that their offensive line

783
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,720
Speaker 1: has not been playing well. Rams currently have a minus

784
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: twenty four point deferential in twenty twenty two, after having

785
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 1: a positive point deferential through four games in each of

786
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: the first five seasons under Sean mcvayh their lowest prior

787
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: to this year was plus thirteen, So that's what like

788
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 1: a thirty five point difference thirty seven point difference something

789
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: like that. That it's different now with Sean McVay. This

790
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 1: doesn't look like the same team. Where's the weakness of

791
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: that offensive line? Patrick? Because Dallas is going to get

792
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 1: after teams. We've already seen that through the first four

793
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 1: weeks of the year. How are they going to get

794
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: after the rams? Well, WHI should terrify the rams is

795
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,240
Speaker 1: the weakness. The biggest weakness is not simply the interior

796
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:04,280
Speaker 1: of the offensive line. It's more specifically the center position,

797
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: which is critical, critical to making sure that I mean,

798
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: you talk about time we were talking about the long

799
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: snapper situation. You talk about your quarterback having trust in

800
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 1: the center and that particularly on shotgun formations, that that

801
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: ball is going to be there timely. The cadence is

802
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: going to be understood. Asaiah spoken a lot about cadence

803
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 1: this season. All of that stuff matters. And now you're

804
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: you're going to your third string center, and when that

805
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,879
Speaker 1: third string center walks up, he's trying to over He's

806
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 1: going to over process because he's trying not to make

807
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 1: a mistake, which is why he's probably going to make

808
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,280
Speaker 1: a mistake. Now that could be a poor snap, whatever

809
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 1: the case may be. But not only does he have

810
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 1: to make sure that the timing and the rhythm that

811
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: he understands Stafford's cadence correctly, but he also then has

812
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: to understand that once he flips his head up, look

813
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 1: look who he's staring at. He's staring at Neville Gallimore

814
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: and ohso Diggi Zoua and Quentin Bohanna and Chauncey Ghost

815
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 1: and and good luck young man. So I don't I

816
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,760
Speaker 1: think that you look at the interior of the offensive

817
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,720
Speaker 1: line for the Rams, you look at the center position,

818
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: third stringer coming in, who's not you know, that's not

819
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 1: his base position. That's a major major problem in Stafford already.

820
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 1: You know quite as it's kept maybe loud as it's uh.

821
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 1: He doesn't trust those guys up front, and you're seeing

822
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,400
Speaker 1: it on film. And now you're gonna throw a third

823
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: string center in front of him against some horses from

824
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: dan Quinn. The trust is going to the trust level

825
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 1: is gonna go down that much more so in week five.

826
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,800
Speaker 1: And you know the pork chop is tender in the center.

827
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 1: Cowboys just have to eat a hole through it. Ronnie, Yeah, yeh,

828
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: I got none for you. Okay, why these guys are

829
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,800
Speaker 1: in a bad position and Dallas Cowboys in a good position.

830
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: It's just you had something last week whenever Washington was

831
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 1: in a bad position. Tell me, tell me about him. No,

832
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 1: I mean they're just like you said. I think that

833
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 1: you have to be conscious and cautious about coming in there,

834
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: like like sleepy, Joe, don't be don't be sleepy walking

835
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 1: in here to play them at home with their backs

836
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 1: against the wall, with the city against some with a

837
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: super competitive coach, super really with really good players offensively

838
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:06,800
Speaker 1: and defensively. They have their problems, right A lot of

839
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,239
Speaker 1: teams have their problems right now, injuries, whatever it may be.

840
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:14,320
Speaker 1: But you're talking about the defendant champs, so put some

841
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: respect on it. Not only are they defendant champs or

842
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: defendive champs with the same coach, the same superstars, they

843
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: added more superstars and they're playing at the crib where

844
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 1: they won the Super Bowl. So you don't be confident,

845
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 1: don't be cocky. Yeah, you know, be confident, don't be cocky.

846
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,399
Speaker 1: And I heard I think was it King Griffey Junior

847
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: yesterday was on the Pivot and he said, what do

848
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:40,359
Speaker 1: you say? He said, confident is is knowing that you're

849
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,800
Speaker 1: good at something, and cocky is when you feel that

850
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 1: you have to tell everybody, Yeah, just just just know

851
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: just going there and know that you're good, know that

852
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: things are clicking, no that things that are on the

853
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: up and up. Go out there and they're they're wounded,

854
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 1: they're wounded, go out there and expose it. Usually it's

855
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 1: teams that have a target on the Cowboys back just

856
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 1: because the brashness of the brand and the visibility that

857
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 1: they bring. But are they even able to be confident

858
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: and or cocky either one after the three game waiting streak?

859
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: Have they earned that right yet? I don't get the

860
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 1: sense that anybody on this team is cocky it. That's

861
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:21,800
Speaker 1: kind of what I'm thinking. I mean, that's kind of

862
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 1: where I'm leading. I don't think they've earned that right yet,

863
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 1: especially to go up and be too confident and overly

864
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: confident against the La Rams who just won a Super Bowl, right.

865
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:33,359
Speaker 1: I mean, there's been times where the Cowboys and Dak

866
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 1: has even said it, where they've you know, they kind

867
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 1: of feeling themselves a little bit when they've gone on

868
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: a win streak. It's happened before. I don't think that's

869
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,279
Speaker 1: the case, because I think it shouldn't be the case

870
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: because clearly offensively, there's things that they are limited at.

871
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: They got they got some continued issue, Like there's things

872
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: you can point to this Washington game where you're like, hey,

873
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: the protection up front, the running game, we couldn't get

874
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: that going defensively leaking a lot of run yards. They

875
00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: need to get more takeaways. Like there's a lot of

876
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 1: stuff on film that even dan Quinn can point to

877
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 1: and be like, we can be better at this, better

878
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 1: at this. There's a ton of room for improvement, even

879
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. They shouldn't be cocky,

880
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: they should be confident because I think they know they're good.

881
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: But yeah, Isaiah's right, like, you gotta put respect on

882
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,959
Speaker 1: the rams. This is not the first time that people

883
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: have said Sean McVeigh has been figured out. It's not

884
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 1: the first time, and they'll be back. He's probably one

885
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 1: of the most I mean, you think about the most creative,

886
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,840
Speaker 1: ingenious minds offensively in the league, you mcveigh's name comes up,

887
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 1: no doubt. So for him to be at the bottom,

888
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 1: and you know how competitive he is, he's whether he

889
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 1: was the youngest coach youngest head coach or whatever is

890
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 1: at some point in time, this dude is he's confident,

891
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,759
Speaker 1: he's freaking competitive, he's infatuated with the game. This is

892
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:45,719
Speaker 1: not what you're talking about young coaches. And I guess

893
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: I'll make this comparison. Was a Klingsberg? Was the name

894
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,920
Speaker 1: was Kingsberry? Yeah, King I can't say his name, Kingsberry

895
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 1: disrespect Okay, in Arizona, both young coaches, both offensive minds.

896
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,799
Speaker 1: One of them you just hold in a high regard, right,

897
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: one of them you just holding a high regard because

898
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:04,880
Speaker 1: you're like, if this dude gets knocked down, like dang it,

899
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: like watch out, Like he's probably gonna be pissed off.

900
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: And this like if there if there's any coach in

901
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: the league that you feel that way about, is this

902
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:16,279
Speaker 1: guy right here? Yeah? I mean McVeigh isn't figured out.

903
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: I mean that he continues to prove that time and again.

904
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 1: But it kind of goes back to a hearking back

905
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 1: to our conversation about Brian Dable. Right, all right, you

906
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 1: have one of the better brighter football minds in the

907
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 1: NFL that you're going against. Respect that respect, that respect

908
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,320
Speaker 1: that at the end of the day, personnel, and it

909
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 1: matters until it doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter when

910
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,360
Speaker 1: it comes down to personnel and execution. And you you

911
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,879
Speaker 1: saw McVeigh throwing some of his players under the bus

912
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 1: in the press conference after the loss of the forty

913
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 1: nine is by basically saying, the guys we expected to

914
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: step up didn't do what we wanted them to do.

915
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 1: It right, you got to love it. But at the

916
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,720
Speaker 1: same time that tells you that to a large degree,

917
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: it matters the scheme and all of this, it matters,

918
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,840
Speaker 1: it matters, it matters. But if your horses are not

919
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 1: built to stop these dogs, then your horses are going

920
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: to be sandwich meat. That's just what it comes down to.

921
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,919
Speaker 1: And there's no variation at any given Sunday, caveat any

922
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 1: given Sunday. But there's nothing that I see personnel to

923
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 1: personnel wise offensive line of defensive line. And then you

924
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,839
Speaker 1: throw in Michael Parsons in the world's wado for Matt

925
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 1: where's he at? Where's Hett? And Michael Parsons, by the way,

926
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,759
Speaker 1: hasn't had a technical sack and I'd say technical a

927
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 1: technical sack in two games. He's not cocky, he wants

928
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: he's out for blood. This defense wants to improve Tank

929
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 1: they were up. When he was frustrated about not stopping

930
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 1: the run. He wasn't over there like, oh, well we're up,

931
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:46,360
Speaker 1: you know, let him have no He was like, we

932
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:50,040
Speaker 1: have to stop the run. This defense is just monstrous,

933
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 1: and they're going against an offensive line that is exceedingly porous,

934
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 1: and there is a quarterback behind that offensive line that

935
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: has shown you when you shrink his clock, he will

936
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 1: get view the ball. This is a winnable game for

937
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,880
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in a stadium that should be heavily populated

938
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,439
Speaker 1: with Cowboys fans, even with the Super Bowl champs in town.

939
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: They're just there, what seven eight weeks ago? Yeah, yeah,

940
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 1: we were. So I'm glad we have this conversation now

941
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 1: because if you were going to overlook a part of

942
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,439
Speaker 1: the offense or a part of the Rams, it would

943
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,320
Speaker 1: be their offense. And Sean McVay is gonna pick that

944
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 1: up and it's gonna be there. You're gonna have some challenges.

945
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:30,520
Speaker 1: You cannot overlook the Rams defense. Though they've been playing

946
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 1: really well, they're gonna be tough to get past at

947
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 1: any point throughout the season, especially this week when you're

948
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 1: still trying to get back on track on your offensive

949
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:41,360
Speaker 1: side of the football. We're gonna preview that matchup tomorrow
