It's crazy because 0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:20.000 it feels like game day, but it's something I already played, 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.680 Like I woke up this morning. Yeah yeah, I'm like 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:24.360 the first day of school. Little hype. I got my 0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:26.360 TV shirt, you know TV ready, you know, a little 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:28.000 get my breakfast. I feel like I'm gonna go pull 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:29.600 up to the stadium. Is there gonna be a Garrett 0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:32.720 vision today? Like? Hold on, man, we don't like this, 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:37.840 so listen. Knowing you, I'm sure, I'm sure you'll find something. 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:40.800 The Thursday episode of this show will be very interesting. 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.240 Thursday show will be very interesting. And by the way, 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:45.560 I'm knew he scrubs a long time Cowboys reporter, So 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:49.720 forty five minutes a whole lot to get to second segment, 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.360 We're gonna dive all into Survivor as it airs tonight 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:56.080 on CBS UM locally here downspot Worth seven o'clock and 0:01:56.200 --> 0:01:59.520 catch it on channel eleven. The Cowboys getting ready to 0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:02.200 face the Eagles, and oh, by the way, the hits 0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:06.160 just keep on coming. Doran's Armstrong, who started last week 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:11.600 with a high ankle spraying sill. You're hoping that Randy 0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:14.160 Gregory is off the COVID list for this game. It's 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:16.919 expected to be he gets back at the defensive end spot. 0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:20.600 So no, Doran's Armstrong, tank Lord's got a broken foot. 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:26.720 This is the question, do you put Michael Parsons back 0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:29.880 at defensive end or As we spoke about yesterday, you've 0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:33.440 got Jalen Hurts, a quarterback who's very mobile, he's the 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:37.440 leading rusher. Is it better to have Parsons at linebacker? Well, 0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:39.760 I didn't want it to happen, man, But with this, 0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:43.480 with this Doran's Armstrong ankle injury, you know, I'm not 0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:47.119 sure how effective he'll be out there in containing Jalen Hurts. 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:49.720 And we all know if Hurts gets outside the pocket, 0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.320 that's when he becomes his best. He's a dual threat quarterback, 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:54.200 and if he gets out of that pocket, he's able 0:02:54.200 --> 0:02:56.760 to extend plays. He got the receivers out there, Gregor, 0:02:57.280 --> 0:02:59.519 the first round guy Smith, so he got the receivers 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:01.799 to extend players and launch the ball deep. So we 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:03.880 gotta keep him in his pocket. And you know, I 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:06.520 know I was big on putting Parsons back to linebacker 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:08.880 because I believe in his sideline the sideline speed and 0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:12.160 his playmaking ability and coverage and stopping the run. But 0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:14.800 without Thor's Armstrong being there, I think you're kind of 0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.880 forced to put him back at that defensive end position 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.200 because I don't I don't know if Azora Kamara can 0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:22.040 do it. Bradley and I don't know if those guys 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.080 can do it. I know we'll have Gregory back on 0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:25.679 the left side, and I'm not worried about him. I 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.239 know he's gonna come out flying, But that other side. 0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:30.960 You gotta have a strong guy on that other side 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:32.600 to be able to contain him, or he's just gonna 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:35.000 roll out to that side each and every time. I 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:36.640 hate to say it, but I think they're gonna have 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.520 to move Parsons back to defensive end and hopefully we 0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:41.600 get that same type of intensity that we had that 0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:43.960 Chargers game. Just don't do that up and undermove because 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.000 hurt is gonna take advantage of that all day. We 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:48.960 gotta keep this guy containing. I think Parsons might be 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:52.120 our best answer. Yeah, listen, as I'm sitting here, and 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:54.880 then you know, we didn't have somebody kind of predict 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:56.920 that if something may go wrong and then you might 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.800 have to leave Parsons that defensive end. I'm still at 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:03.320 the mindset that I'd like to see him play more 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:07.960 linebackers than defensive end. But thankfully my man DQ has 0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:10.200 another forty two back there who we can use as 0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:12.720 a spy if we need to. So, if you got 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:15.600 U if forty two, if Keana Neil can get out 0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:18.560 there and be what we expect Parsons to be, and 0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:20.760 then we can move Parsons down to the end position. 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:23.440 I'm okay with that all right, But like you said, 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:26.160 it's going to be a totally different game when Parsons 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:29.200 has to come up to edge play the own read 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.040 and then also worry about not having to do the 0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:35.400 up and under. And a lot of those defensive ends, man, 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.919 they work their entire life on figuring out how to 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.680 keep contained and also Russia at the same time, a 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.719 Russian contained and that's something he hadn't done since high school. 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:48.480 So you know, hopefully dan Quinn's coaching them up and 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:50.160 and it hasn't ready, but I still would like to 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:53.039 see him start at at linebacker and then things start 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:55.040 to go a little wrong, then then then moving around 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:58.800 a little bit. Bucky Brooks was on the break today 0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:03.919 and he said the best way to neutralize Jalen Hurts 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:07.240 was making play from the pocket. That's it. So based 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:12.560 on what Bucky said, should you put Parsons at linebacker? 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:16.200 And then maybe you said you go with Kamara Bradley 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:17.920 and I you just kind of go with, you know, 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:21.440 a rotation of guys that the other defensive end spot 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:25.440 opposite Randy Gregory. Look, I'll go ahead, go ahead, man, Yeah, listen, 0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:28.440 I'm to be honest. I think all that always sounds 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.920 really really good to make somebody play from the pocket. 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:33.080 But when you got guys out there rushing, and you 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:35.800 got a guy that this savvy and his creative as 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.520 Jalen Hurts, it's very very hard to say, all right, 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.360 as long as we keep these guys around him and 0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:44.520 make sure that we don't rush past them, that he's 0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:46.560 not gonna make a play. The man can still throw, 0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:49.640 He can still even if you get the ends rushing 0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:51.640 a little bit too far past them, that still opens 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:53.880 up a big gap. I forgot about Troy Bashelm and 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:57.440 Tarle Tarle Bashel. And that's the thing though with with Hurts, 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.200 like you just mentioned, it's not all about just you know, 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:02.160 making sure you stay outside. You got to make sure 0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:04.000 your level with this guy too, because if you rush 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.280 right past them, you're just opening up that further gap 0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:07.880 for him to step up and either throw the ball 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:09.680 down the field or take off and run. So there's 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:13.520 definitely different variables to contain the guy like Hurts, And 0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:15.360 this is a whole new monster. When you talk about 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:18.920 read and the what is that RPOs? And it's a 0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.800 whole different type of animals. So you know, last week, 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:23.720 Parsons didn't really have to deal with that. It was 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:25.919 more of a drop bad quarterback. He has some legs 0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:28.359 to him, but he's not really that RPO where he 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:30.279 plays from the pocket. This is a whole different type 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:32.520 of animal when you talk about a dual threat quarterback 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:35.360 run and play at or RPOs and they're they're keying 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:37.560 on they're keying on Parsons if he's gonna dive and 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:39.960 take that dive at Miles Sanders and Hurt's gonna go 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:41.839 on the outside, or is he gonna stick with Hurts 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:43.479 and they hand it right off. So it's a whole 0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:45.240 different beast. And that's a lot to put on a 0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:47.760 rookies plate. I know he's been great at middle linebacker, 0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:50.000 and I know he's been a productive or a productive 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:52.440 at the defensive end position. But that's a whole lot 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:53.920 to put on a rookie to go out there and say, 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:55.960 all right, we need you to shut this down tonight 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:57.880 because we don't have anybody else. That's a lot of 0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:00.400 pressure to put on them. I think he and handle 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:03.800 the pressure. He showed last week that he was amazing 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:06.520 and he didn't come into that vision until Thursday. So 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:09.400 this week he has a whole full week because really 0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.560 they don't start practice till tomorrow, and I think they 0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:14.280 he'll be able to handle it at defensive end. This 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:16.240 is is going to be a second week doing it, 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:21.800 and I just I personally don't trust our secondary as 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:25.960 much for to not have Michael Parsons stop it at 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:28.880 the beginning. Like I don't want Jalen to get through 0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:31.160 and then have so much time to throw the ball 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.640 and get it to one of these his receivers or 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.119 anything like that. I just want him to stop. Michael 0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:38.200 Parsons to stop it now. I think he's like obviously 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:40.600 the best guy on defense at this point, and I 0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:42.200 think you stop it at the beginning of the play, 0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:44.240 not wait till he has time to do all of 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:48.200 this other stuff. Yeah, and listen, I would love for 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:52.720 him too now, but like Church said, he won't be 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:54.920 going up against the backup. You know, it'll be a 0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.080 whole different ball game out there, and I really think 0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:01.040 that the zone read is going to be tough for him, 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:03.040 and you know, It's just me. I want to see 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:05.320 him play back there and be able to spy on 0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:08.320 Jalen Hurts. So so so he's not able to get 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:11.120 around either edge. Hopefully we see that, but I know 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:13.840 for sure he's going to be playing some defensive end. Okay, 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:16.000 So so let me add this component in here. So 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:18.840 we just keep talking about the Cowboys and defensive players 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:21.680 and just what seems to be just this rash of 0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:26.840 injuries and issues. Carlos Watkins defensive tackle. Well, so do 0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:31.760 you you know another reason to put Parsons linebacker is, hey, man, 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:33.520 if they want to start just trying to run up 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:35.240 that middle, you know, if they start trying to go 0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:36.839 up there, you know you need some you know, you 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:39.520 need some help there. So I'm just think, just listening 0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:42.400 to YouTube, you go with Gregory and bash him at 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:46.439 your ends, and you utilize Parsons DQ just mixes him 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:48.240 up wherever he mixes him up to make the Eagles 0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:51.360 offensive line think yeah, and you kind of go from there. Yeah, 0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:53.040 you can't just I don't want him to just either 0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:55.880 be at defensive end or be at middle linebacker. I'd 0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:57.680 love to see them mix him around, like you just said, 0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:00.880 maybe throw some packages where he's at defensive end, because look, 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:02.800 we got to move this guy around. I think he's 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:05.440 a positionless guy, and I consider him a defensive weapon 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:08.120 more than just a specific DN or a middle linebacker 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:10.240 because he can do all types of things out there. So, 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:12.920 you know, DQ, I'll give the benefit out to my 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:16.000 boy Daddy. He seems like he's a defensive genius so far, 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.520 so I'm sure he'll put the guys in the right position. 0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:21.400 But like you mentioned, KNEWI with that that Carlos Walkins, 0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:24.559 we were already shorthanded a defensive tackle, Nevil Gallimore. Where 0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:26.679 is Tristan Hill? Is he? Is he gonna come back 0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:28.960 any anytime soon? I mean, what is going on here? 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:33.760 We need I mean, this defensive line right now is hurting, 0:09:33.840 --> 0:09:36.720 and look, Nevil Gallimore, he ain't coming back this week, 0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:39.560 Carlos Watkins down. We need these guys to step up. 0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:41.520 So I gotta have packages from my boy out there, 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:43.720 just to use him as a weapon to get something 0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:45.959 after hurts or something after this run game, because we're 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:48.120 gonna need it this Monday. Yeah, we're gonna need it. 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:50.080 But you know, I got I got faith in DQ. Uh, 0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:52.560 he's gonna make it work like two weeks in a row, 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:55.480 we manufactured that that that pressure at three weeks in 0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:57.160 a row. Okay, they put up a lot of passing 0:09:57.240 --> 0:09:58.599 yards on us in week one, but we want to 0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:01.240 think full turnovers. That's that's better than we had done 0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:03.120 in a long area lounge. He's gonna find a way 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:07.280 to manufacture some pressure, manufactures some some stunts, make sure 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.600 he's in those A and B gaps, uh, you know, 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:12.000 and confuse Jayan a little bit. And I think that's 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:13.600 what we need. Where do you think we need to 0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:15.640 get the most pressure from, you know, how we go 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:17.400 against Tom Brady to always say you gotta get that 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:19.640 interior pressure to mess him up and confuse him. Where 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:22.040 do you think we need to get this pressure or 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:23.959 where do you think we need to go or focus 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:25.800 on to go against a guy like Hurts? Yeah, honestly, 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:28.120 I think it's gonna come from like like confusing them 0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:31.720 really not specifically outside Russia. Inside Russia. You have to 0:10:31.760 --> 0:10:34.440 make him not know where the blitz is coming from. Right, 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.240 So if you're rushing right, you want him to think 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:39.800 it's coming from the right, right, and then switch that 0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:41.439 thing over to the left and have him come back. 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:44.560 We want to make sure that you're disguising and confusing him, 0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:47.600 just like we did justin Herbert, you know, so to 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:49.440 make him make those mistakes. So I don't think it's 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.840 like a specific location. I just think we have to 0:10:51.840 --> 0:10:54.560 be out there and Outsmarten's guy on. Most of Hurtses 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:56.320 throws are going to come from the right, like throwing 0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:59.000 to the right. And I go back to what Bucky 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:00.920 Brooks says, I think it's just a really good point. 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:02.559 I got Hurt Hurts on my fantasy team, So you 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:04.360 start to watch these games when these guys are on 0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:07.360 your fantasy team, and um, it's when he's out of 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:09.559 that pocket. He's got options that he's able to do 0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:11.760 some stuff. He basically run the college office here, which 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:13.360 is a smart job by the Eagles. You know, what 0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:15.040 do you do best. Let's to do what you do best. 0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:19.000 And I just think the biggest things just contain them. 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.880 Just contain him within that pocket and get to the 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:23.920 outside and you can find the botas smith a little bit. 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:25.640 Then you know in that yards after to catch you, 0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.320 that's when you get killed. Killed, And they're gonna have 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:30.000 to this secondary. They're gonna have to do a great 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:31.960 job of plastering. Now in plaster and you know what 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:33.680 I'm talking about, d maccots. When you're in the zone, 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.400 things start to break down. Receivers start turning and going 0:11:36.440 --> 0:11:38.640 this way, going that way. Add lib into the route. 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:40.480 That's what our secondary is gonna have to do a 0:11:40.520 --> 0:11:42.719 great job of just plaster and locking up who was 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:44.280 ever is in your zone. That's what the forty nine 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:45.960 ers did. They did a great job of plaster and 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:47.720 when Hurts was able to get out and get and 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.240 extend to play a little bit, their corners, their safeties 0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:51.880 were able to lock down and even if he did 0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:54.160 extend to play, throw it as an incomplete plaster. They 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:56.200 made things hard for Hurts out there. And like you said, 0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:58.040 we're gonna have to add that disguise to it. But 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:00.560 most importantly, the secondary is gonna have to plaster when 0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:03.360 we're in zon coverage. I'll take you this about a secondary. Listen, 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:05.400 they've been enjoyed this game. This is probably be one 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:07.800 of the best matchups that they have as far as 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:09.840 being able to cover some of these receivers. All Right, 0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:11.760 the first week you go up against Tom Brady and 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:15.640 his game with god winning Mike Evans and grown next weekend. 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:17.880 The next week you faced Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:19.920 who who've been balling this season, and now you get 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.280 to go against a rookie and then Jalen Raiker who 0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:25.439 hasn't really proven himself for an entire season. Right, So 0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:28.120 this is the game where you go in and you 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:31.000 establish your dominance as a defensive secondary. This is where 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.080 you start to creep up into that top ten about 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:35.079 not a line four or five hundred yards in the game, 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:41.920 you just you just forgot about Antonio Brown. He's part 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:46.080 of Tom Brady's game. He's on the COVID list. By 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:51.800 the way, I'll tell you what he's not on my 0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:58.640 fantasy team. We're okay because I already already put him 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:00.319 on the bench. Well, actually got an ir spot to 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:04.679 put on a a spot, and we bumped up Courtland started. 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:07.320 He started. He's starting this week for me instead of 0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:11.040 James Robinson because James Robinson down lappening to him. I 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:14.800 got my got Robinson shoes right on the bench. Start 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:18.839 bag straight killing me. I rem just hurting the game. Man. 0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:21.480 Lebody tell her remind what to do. He's gonna go 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.880 back to college. So you know he's on health No, 0:13:24.559 --> 0:13:29.760 the first state mix, he's all health. Noticed now he 0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:35.439 start getting shaky, feeling too good. That friend said, Elizabeth 0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:40.520 anytime off, time off turned into that college. Well, I 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:42.360 don't know, man, he's naking fourteen million dollars. So you 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:45.640 know if i'm remind I'm not you're firing me, You're not. 0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:48.120 I'm not walking away from that. Fire me, you'll like 0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:50.480 me five. I feel like he's one of them guys 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.400 that cares more about legacy. Absolutely. Then then then the bread. 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:56.360 I feel like, hell, I'm one of the greatest coaches 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:58.560 of all time. I can't take an ell nowhere. I 0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:00.640 feel like he's one of those type guys. But if 0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:04.079 you quit, it's not like he's gonna go take the 0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:06.520 sea job. He's not gonna do that. Tell if he quits, 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:08.920 he's gonna take two years old. You gonna go back 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:10.480 to the You're gonna go back to the mooth for 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:13.160 a little. But but if you're pulling fourteen million year, 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:14.640 I'm sorry. I don't care about Like I said, I 0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:18.560 want my straight cat, I want money. That's what Ohio 0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:22.720 State take Urban Meyer back? What what Ohio State take 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:27.920 Urban back? I mean, that situation wasn't his fault, but 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.280 he obviously as the head coach, had to take you 0:14:30.320 --> 0:14:32.680 know whatever, and took his little year off after. I 0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:35.520 think so. I think that's where his legacy lies is 0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:39.080 with Ohio State more than anything. So I think so. 0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:45.840 So we fired in Ryan Day right now, looking a 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:49.520 little rook, Irban Marber Cruits start getting up out of there. Yeah, 0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:52.840 st started to look a little different. You guys got 0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:55.520 no heart. Many Day has done a good job. Man, 0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:57.360 that's that's that's an Let me tell you something. And 0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:00.200 I was a Les Miles guy, Okay, Les Miles crew 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:02.080 to me. But I tell you what. When the talent 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:04.840 started to change from guys that Nick Saban had recruited 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.440 to guys that Les Miles was breaking in there, you 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:10.960 saw a little downfall come with LSU. All right, we 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:12.960 still made some we still made some plays, but we 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.840 had we had some true talent when I first got there. 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:19.720 All right, So Irban Mars gone, Ryan Dave's taken over, 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:21.480 and all of a sudden, these dudes started looking like 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.400 they look at every Wait wait wait wait wait wait 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:27.760 didn't Oil State played for the national championship last year? 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:32.560 So we're talking about pushing the dude out to bringing 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:35.080 Urban Meyer. They talk about they talk aboutetting older run 0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.040 about it up two years ago. He had the best, 0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:40.720 he had the best way, he had the best ever 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:44.200 in the history of college football. Now I go to 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:46.480 my boy Chris Landry on this Landry football dot com. 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:48.880 Chris used to be a coach of the LSU and 0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:52.000 he said, forever in the day at Oseron is a 0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:55.320 good recruiter and he got he believes it. He got 0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:58.720 lucky because he had Joe Burrow and that Joe Burrow 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:00.800 was out there. Basically, Joe Burrow was a dude out 0:16:00.800 --> 0:16:03.000 here getting people of practice like that. They were following 0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:05.280 Joe Burrow and he said, they got Joe Brady and 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.680 he said it was the coaches and the perfect storm 0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:11.720 kind of like what Jeane chisick. Let me finish. I 0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:14.960 am not and that ocean run under the new ad 0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:18.120 Scott Woodward ain't gonna last if he has seven wins 0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:20.600 or last. I just think that's crazy, right, So he 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.440 put the right guys around him, right. He got Joe 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:26.520 Burrow to transfer in from Ohio State. He did that right. 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:30.200 Joe Burrows Ohio State riding the Pine and my man 0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:32.240 osann Win got him. He went to the Saints and 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:34.760 got Joe Brady, who was not offensive coordinator. He was 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.800 like an assistant coach up there, right, and then he 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:39.720 got him to come in there. He had dave around 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:42.600 there's on defense. He surrounded himself kind of like you know, 0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.400 somebody is here with the cowboys with the right type 0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:47.400 of guys to get them where they needed to go. 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:50.400 And what's wrong with that? And where something? They all 0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:52.640 got head coaching job? I mean Joe Joe Brady's office 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:54.920 coordinator for the Panels. Who do he bring in last year? Yeah? 0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:59.400 It was rough? Okay, what happened to that? Ryan Days? 0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:03.960 Ryan Days on his way to the older run train. Man, 0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:06.239 that's the case. I'm just trying to tell you your 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:10.159 boy coach Alicia is a lot shorter Ryan Days. Lesia 0:17:10.240 --> 0:17:11.840 is very long. I would say that the last time 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:15.240 Bopolini was was coaching at LSU, he was winning national championship. So, 0:17:15.280 --> 0:17:18.000 I mean whatever, it seemed like, you know, people thought 0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:20.280 it was gonna work out for he seemed testing when 0:17:20.680 --> 0:17:25.320 we went there, tested tested list. I would defend mine. 0:17:25.480 --> 0:17:29.440 You make sure you defend unc Penbrook like that. Okay, Penbrook. 0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:34.200 We won, by the way, Okay, celebrate that one week, 0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:39.680 dub boy too, and on in that conference where who's next, 0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:43.000 Chris be I don't want to hear it from you, Chris, 0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:48.280 I man cutting everybody out the day you getting cut 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:52.400 cut one directional college playing Penbrook next week. You don't 0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:54.959 worry about that. But then LSU have Lennahan was there 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:58.760 last year? Yeah, that was backing. I don't know why 0:17:58.840 --> 0:18:02.400 we did that and who brought there that was? Oh yeah, 0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:10.600 people make mistakes. I mean last year. You listen, you 0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:13.440 bought into Big Mike. So I got a bunch of leeway. 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:15.080 You bought it the Big Mike lash.

But the 0:22:05.160 --> 0:22:09.680 location for this year Survivor is beautiful Fiji. Who Yeah, 0:22:10.480 --> 0:22:12.679 the French Polynesia. Yeah, we were out there in Fiji. 0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:15.239 And the truth is, before I went out there, if 0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:16.720 you showed me a map, I would not be able 0:22:16.760 --> 0:22:19.320 to point that thing out. Okay, But Fiji is a 0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:22.600 very beautiful place, a lot of beautiful islands, uh waters, 0:22:22.720 --> 0:22:26.840 blue weather's great, um, you know, except except it was hot, 0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:28.760 you know. So it's beautiful as you wanted to be, 0:22:28.840 --> 0:22:31.919 except when you out there, you know, you know, sleeping 0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:35.440 on bamboo and and and the saying out there with 0:22:35.560 --> 0:22:38.000 the crabs and the and the spiders. Now would you 0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:40.000 want to go out there again? Now that you have 0:22:40.119 --> 0:22:42.959 done survivor and how to you know, have the actual 0:22:43.119 --> 0:22:45.760 like resort experience of it? Are you done with Fiji? 0:22:45.960 --> 0:22:48.719 You know? Listen, I gotta it's a love hate thing 0:22:48.760 --> 0:22:51.920 with with Fiji. Okay. If somebody invited me to go, 0:22:52.200 --> 0:22:54.560 I would, But if you ask me where I wanted 0:22:54.600 --> 0:22:57.200 to go, I would not say Fiji, just because I mean, 0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:00.159 I've seen it, all right, It's other place this is 0:23:00.200 --> 0:23:02.720 to go. It's a beautiful place, beautiful people. Um. But 0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:04.720 I got some other places on my list that I'd 0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:09.800 like to like to try out, such as Yo. Back 0:23:09.840 --> 0:23:14.280 to your want, I want to I want to do 0:23:14.440 --> 0:23:18.040 a dubai, I want to do a pouquet. Thailand, I 0:23:18.119 --> 0:23:22.360 went there. If you need any advice, but it was nice, amazing, 0:23:22.520 --> 0:23:24.320 and you live like a king or queen there because 0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:28.480 it's so so cheap, like drinks fifty cents American dollars, 0:23:28.640 --> 0:23:31.640 like the place we stayed was a giant, beautiful place 0:23:31.720 --> 0:23:34.399 and paid like three hundred dollars a night for a 0:23:34.480 --> 0:23:38.800 house chef every day. At the top of my survivor pouquet, 0:23:40.600 --> 0:23:42.680 was that before after the typhoon he hit over there 0:23:42.880 --> 0:23:45.800 in Thailand. What year did it hit? I can't remember. 0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:47.280 A couple of years it was, it was it was 0:23:47.920 --> 0:23:51.240 I went like three years, three or four years ago. Okay, 0:23:51.600 --> 0:23:54.200 that was probably after, but I remember I remember just 0:23:54.240 --> 0:23:57.200 seeing the video of the Deva station of and people 0:23:57.280 --> 0:23:59.040 are talking about just you know, what a beautiful place 0:23:59.119 --> 0:24:01.800 it was, and just how how how cheap once again 0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:03.920 cheaply had to go over there, and then just to 0:24:03.960 --> 0:24:05.639 see that when that typhoon hit, He's like, now you 0:24:05.720 --> 0:24:08.920 hated it for because it's a beautiful, all the different pictures, 0:24:09.480 --> 0:24:11.760 it's amazing, a great time over there. It's amazing, So 0:24:12.720 --> 0:24:14.879 you know, I know you know, Barry Les to call 0:24:14.960 --> 0:24:18.720 you the black Survivor, but they're actually what five other 0:24:18.800 --> 0:24:20.520 black people that were on the show this season. This 0:24:20.640 --> 0:24:24.680 is the most diverse season of Survivor. Tell us about that. Yes, 0:24:25.119 --> 0:24:29.200 so CBS has mandated for their reality TV shows that 0:24:29.359 --> 0:24:31.920 fifty percent of each cast they have to be people 0:24:31.960 --> 0:24:34.680 of color. So not only did we have five black 0:24:34.720 --> 0:24:38.080 people on the show, we had people from Toronto on 0:24:38.119 --> 0:24:40.640 the show. We had the LGBTQ community on the show. 0:24:40.720 --> 0:24:44.680 We had Asians on the show. Like it's literally, uh 0:24:45.520 --> 0:24:48.600 representation from almost everybody in America. So it looks more 0:24:48.760 --> 0:24:51.080 like what America is versus what it had looked like 0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:53.399 in the past. So just push your liberal agenda on 0:24:53.400 --> 0:24:55.080 the show. No, no, I'm not. I'm not pushing a 0:24:55.160 --> 0:25:01.720 lib but see, see this is this is the reason 0:25:01.800 --> 0:25:04.359 why somebody like Nate would say, are you talking aboutnigga 0:25:04.400 --> 0:25:07.000 in a phrase? Because when when you think of Survivor, 0:25:07.240 --> 0:25:09.080 you don't really think of black people watching it like 0:25:09.160 --> 0:25:12.920 that because they don't usually get to see themselves that 0:25:13.119 --> 0:25:15.440 much on the show. Right, So now you have five 0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:19.639 different individuals who African American may be able to relate with, right, 0:25:19.760 --> 0:25:22.120 So then now you pull in a whole new crowd, 0:25:22.160 --> 0:25:24.800 and it's it's an amazing game. So I'm actually excited 0:25:24.840 --> 0:25:26.560 for for for the new crowd that we're gonna have 0:25:26.600 --> 0:25:28.560 watching the show. Yeah, you're gonna have tons of new fans. 0:25:28.760 --> 0:25:32.280 Yeah yeah, I'm seeing super hard Danny, my big league 0:25:32.359 --> 0:25:34.480 us and be like, I'm too cool for you. No, no, no, 0:25:34.600 --> 0:25:36.760 I'm just I'm just me. I at the end of that, 0:25:36.880 --> 0:25:43.720 I know I'd never be like church, take church servants, 0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:49.240 take me to church, his sticks and day out. I'm 0:25:49.280 --> 0:25:51.239 telling that man, say, I'm not gonna be the next week, 0:25:51.280 --> 0:25:55.000 I'm gonna vacation. I want to sign. I want to 0:25:55.200 --> 0:25:58.960 sign that. I yes, yes, And we covered that well, 0:25:59.040 --> 0:26:00.720 we covered that well. I don't know how many shows 0:26:00.760 --> 0:26:02.840 it was. But I always would say Danny, Danny was 0:26:02.920 --> 0:26:04.520 on the sign, made sure we include usually and I 0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:08.000 always said on the signment I didn't know and I 0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:10.800 didn't ask. This is true. I didn't this is true 0:26:10.840 --> 0:26:13.080 and I and I and I appreciate it, but you 0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:16.560 didn't make me lie to you. I don't want to lie. 0:26:18.080 --> 0:26:20.080 And later on then later on I found out and 0:26:20.119 --> 0:26:22.840 I just shut up. But I did I didn't do that. 0:26:22.960 --> 0:26:26.680 So what did you learn about television production? Having done 0:26:26.680 --> 0:26:31.000 the show Surviving U, I learned that there's there was 0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:33.440 a lot more that goes into the show than what 0:26:33.600 --> 0:26:36.560 you see on camera, which is probably as much as 0:26:36.600 --> 0:26:38.840 I can say about it. Um, there's a lot of 0:26:38.920 --> 0:26:40.719 work that goes into it. A lot of people are 0:26:41.119 --> 0:26:44.440 super dedicated to making sure that the best products has shown. 0:26:44.880 --> 0:26:47.639 And uh heyeh, I saw some stuff out there that 0:26:47.640 --> 0:26:50.119 I didn't think I would see. Now, did you not 0:26:50.320 --> 0:26:53.000 get Do you get to see the show before everybody else? 0:26:53.080 --> 0:26:55.960 Or you're gonna swatch it tonight Live with Us and 0:26:56.400 --> 0:26:58.560 you know, any alliances that you might have not noticed 0:26:58.560 --> 0:27:00.800 on the show, you'll get to see that out. Yes, 0:27:01.080 --> 0:27:02.639 this will be my first time seeing it. I have 0:27:02.800 --> 0:27:05.480 no idea who was talking tread behind my back. I 0:27:05.600 --> 0:27:08.040 have no idea what they're gonna show me saying how 0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:10.080 I'm gonna look, none of that. So I'll be seeing 0:27:10.119 --> 0:27:12.440 it for the first time with everybody else. So that's 0:27:12.480 --> 0:27:14.159 why I said, I think Church Church is gonna have 0:27:14.240 --> 0:27:16.520 some fun with it. But that's okay, that's okay, that's 0:27:16.680 --> 0:27:19.920 I guess that's the risk out for the tricky editing. 0:27:20.400 --> 0:27:22.399 Be ready for the tricky editor. Ready for the tricky 0:27:23.400 --> 0:27:27.520 I mean it's it's you two. Ever done reality? Yeah, 0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:31.440 not anything crazy, but um yeah, I've done little stuff 0:27:31.600 --> 0:27:33.880 and just being on TV doing stuff like I've done 0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:35.680 The Steve Harvey Show a couple of times, and so 0:27:36.280 --> 0:27:39.520 like you actually shoot everything and then they like take 0:27:39.560 --> 0:27:41.439 a little piece of what what it is and put 0:27:41.480 --> 0:27:42.720 it on the show. And I was like, oh, well, 0:27:42.720 --> 0:27:44.399 I wish they would have let me finish my sentence 0:27:45.640 --> 0:27:47.720 like that. What was the editing point on there? For you? 0:27:47.800 --> 0:27:49.240 When you're on the Steve Harvey Show, You're like, man, 0:27:49.280 --> 0:27:51.440 I was a tricky edit right there. Well, the show 0:27:51.640 --> 0:27:54.720 was actually it was about people that had slid into 0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:57.680 my DMS, and so I was like picking people, you know, 0:27:57.800 --> 0:27:59.359 that I wanted on the show, and so there was 0:27:59.359 --> 0:28:01.159 a whole part where I was kind of talking to 0:28:01.440 --> 0:28:04.080 Steve about why I was going to pick who I 0:28:04.160 --> 0:28:06.280 was going to pick or whatever, and they didn't show 0:28:06.320 --> 0:28:08.239 any of that, and like, really I picked the guy 0:28:08.280 --> 0:28:10.320 because I was like, oh, well he loves the lord 0:28:10.400 --> 0:28:12.520 that I do, and YadA YadA. But then they just 0:28:12.600 --> 0:28:15.960 showed clips of that guy as like oh yeah, like 0:28:16.160 --> 0:28:18.879 being all like romantic kind of sounding and so they're like, oh, 0:28:19.000 --> 0:28:20.960 of course Brett picks this guy and then this guy, 0:28:21.200 --> 0:28:23.119 this other guy seemed so smart on the show, and 0:28:23.160 --> 0:28:25.000 I didn't pick him. So they're like, oh, she's shallow. 0:28:25.160 --> 0:28:27.399 She just picked the cute guy, and I'm like, no, 0:28:27.760 --> 0:28:30.480 he had a whole gospel part of the show that 0:28:30.840 --> 0:28:34.359 was got out. So the whole show you did was 0:28:34.560 --> 0:28:36.920 you and other people just about was the social media 0:28:36.960 --> 0:28:39.680 people that were trying to Yeah, it was that particular 0:28:39.760 --> 0:28:41.920 show was just me on that show, but it was 0:28:42.560 --> 0:28:45.960 I had three bachelors or whatever that came onto the 0:28:46.040 --> 0:28:48.960 show that had slid into my dms, and so Steve 0:28:49.120 --> 0:28:51.480 like vets them to make sure they're not crazy, and 0:28:51.600 --> 0:28:53.520 so this was like supposed to be a chance for 0:28:53.600 --> 0:28:56.960 me to like meet them, and then me and Steve 0:28:57.040 --> 0:28:59.040 did like a Q and A with everybody to see 0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:01.560 who I was gonna pick to go on a date one. 0:29:01.640 --> 0:29:03.479 So the story I did for you, I know you're 0:29:03.520 --> 0:29:06.000 doing TV work here for Dallas Cowboys dot Com. Terrell 0:29:06.120 --> 0:29:09.320 Basham had his mom go on Steve Harvey and he 0:29:09.400 --> 0:29:11.760 was trying to get his mom set up with a 0:29:11.840 --> 0:29:13.960 couple of guys and so sat there. So maybe maybe 0:29:14.000 --> 0:29:18.239 you guys, get well, wait, there's more. Then I hear 0:29:18.280 --> 0:29:21.400 something about the Church family was almost on family feuds. 0:29:21.840 --> 0:29:24.280 Oh we were, well, I wasn't oh my mom and 0:29:24.400 --> 0:29:28.720 her whole family, or my whole family, my grandparents, my grandmam, 0:29:28.800 --> 0:29:30.880 my aunts. It was all the women of my family 0:29:30.920 --> 0:29:32.760 were on. I forgot about that. They were on Steve 0:29:32.880 --> 0:29:35.520 Harvey and they did the whole family feud thing. It 0:29:35.600 --> 0:29:37.760 was pretty dope. It was pretty dope actually. But they 0:29:37.840 --> 0:29:41.200 destroyed all the evidence because I was like, nah, I 0:29:41.280 --> 0:29:44.520 did not like how I looked on television and the restaurant. 0:29:44.600 --> 0:29:46.840 So she was like, I destroyed all the evidence. But well, 0:29:46.880 --> 0:29:48.880 and on Steve Harvey, they do like your makeup and 0:29:48.960 --> 0:29:52.040 hear and everything. And they had me looking like crazy 0:29:52.720 --> 0:29:54.640 if I don't really wear that much makeup. They had 0:29:54.880 --> 0:29:56.840 me caked up like I was going to the club 0:29:56.960 --> 0:30:04.280 and I was no makeup, raw and not cut. Listen, 0:30:04.480 --> 0:30:07.400 and this is this is for everybody what you know 0:30:07.560 --> 0:30:09.920 about the show. And if you ever like washed it 0:30:09.960 --> 0:30:11.840 and you said, oh man, they got like porter parties 0:30:11.880 --> 0:30:13.960 back there. They probably got some soap you know, x 0:30:14.080 --> 0:30:18.040 y Z. They really starving out there. That's a lie. Okay, 0:30:18.200 --> 0:30:22.720 It ain't none of that to do it again, I 0:30:22.800 --> 0:30:25.200 got to see how this one shows yo, So so 0:30:25.360 --> 0:30:27.960 maybe maybe well not even the show part, but just 0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:31.240 the experience like having to be out there and you're hungry, 0:30:31.280 --> 0:30:32.960 you're not getting your three meals a day, you're not 0:30:33.080 --> 0:30:36.200 on your phone. Was that an experience you would go through? 0:30:36.240 --> 0:30:37.960 Oh yeah, I would go through that again. I would. 0:30:37.960 --> 0:30:39.520 I would go through that again. But like I said, 0:30:39.520 --> 0:30:42.000 I need to see like how the entire show plays 0:30:42.040 --> 0:30:44.080 out first before I'm like, oh yeah, I put myself 0:30:44.160 --> 0:30:46.680 through having to watch this type of stuff. How did 0:30:46.720 --> 0:30:48.760 you How did you train to eat? Because I mean 0:30:48.840 --> 0:30:50.360 it ain't like you getting you can go to MC down, 0:30:50.440 --> 0:30:52.280 you can go get you a steak over here, Like so, well, 0:30:52.320 --> 0:30:54.000 how did you train yourself know that the food was 0:30:54.040 --> 0:30:56.000 gonna be sparkled? Yeah? So you know it was so 0:30:56.080 --> 0:30:57.840 it was doing quarantine. So the first time I did it, 0:30:57.880 --> 0:31:00.680 I would like try to eat like just lunch and 0:31:00.800 --> 0:31:02.600 then try to make it throughout the day and see 0:31:02.600 --> 0:31:05.080 how that worked. But then when I got the extra 0:31:05.160 --> 0:31:07.920 year because of quarantine, I would like wake up, make 0:31:07.960 --> 0:31:10.320 a bowl of old meal, put some like bananas becomes 0:31:10.320 --> 0:31:12.440 all that stuff, A nice bowl of od meal, and 0:31:12.560 --> 0:31:14.080 that would be all I ate. So when we did 0:31:14.160 --> 0:31:16.680 those workouts and I would do cardio school, all I 0:31:16.920 --> 0:31:18.800 ate was a bowl of old meal. I'll do a workout, 0:31:18.840 --> 0:31:21.120 then I'll run like three four miles, and then I'll 0:31:21.160 --> 0:31:23.600 sit there and I'll see, like how my mind works, 0:31:23.640 --> 0:31:25.800 how my body's reacting, right, because you know some people 0:31:25.840 --> 0:31:27.800 get angry, Yeah, and I'm one of them people. Did 0:31:27.840 --> 0:31:30.320 you start developing that? Like, No, I already knew I 0:31:30.400 --> 0:31:32.720 was HI, all right. I was trying. I was trying 0:31:32.800 --> 0:31:35.120 to make sure that I knew how to like I 0:31:35.280 --> 0:31:37.400 was aware that I was getting to that point and 0:31:37.560 --> 0:31:40.720 then you know, how to manage it without like rubbing 0:31:40.760 --> 0:31:43.120 somebody the wrong way, getting upset with the with the 0:31:43.200 --> 0:31:45.200 white because you know this time she's pregnant. So you know, 0:31:46.360 --> 0:31:48.360 I think that helped me a lot. Well, how is 0:31:48.400 --> 0:31:50.239 he in the workouts? Then? Since you were working out, 0:31:50.720 --> 0:31:53.680 I didn't. I ain't see no difference. I was leaving him. Yeah. 0:31:58.200 --> 0:32:02.520 So Survivor forty one tonight locally in Dallas foot Word, 0:32:02.680 --> 0:32:08.000 CBS eleven. Danny McCrae is on there thirteen episodes.

Let's jump back 0:35:43.000 --> 0:35:47.520 into the Cowboys. Amari Cooper dealing with ribs. Jerry Jones 0:35:47.680 --> 0:35:50.640 on Tuesday would not reveal whether or not he thought 0:35:50.760 --> 0:35:52.920 Amari Cooper was going to play. So because you were 0:35:53.000 --> 0:35:56.479 former players, let me simply ask you this, what goes 0:35:56.560 --> 0:36:00.640 into taking a shot if you've got rib issues? Um, 0:36:01.960 --> 0:36:04.480 in terms of trying to play and Amari Cooper, you know, 0:36:04.560 --> 0:36:06.400 we don't know if he'll be there Monday or not, 0:36:06.560 --> 0:36:08.560 but just what does that entail? Because you know fans 0:36:08.600 --> 0:36:11.040 all thing. Oh man, it's go ahead, get a shot ahead. 0:36:11.800 --> 0:36:13.440 You want me to start this one ahead? Let me 0:36:13.520 --> 0:36:17.520 tell you something. So my my rookie year, um, I 0:36:17.640 --> 0:36:20.759 had a high ankle sprain. And then while I had 0:36:20.800 --> 0:36:23.640 the ankle sprain, I would get it shot up before 0:36:23.920 --> 0:36:27.200 each game, probably for like the last six games. YEA, 0:36:27.760 --> 0:36:31.279 the needle if you get the camera, the needle is 0:36:31.320 --> 0:36:34.080 about that long, all right, and when they stick it 0:36:34.239 --> 0:36:36.440 into when they stuck it into my ankle, they had 0:36:36.480 --> 0:36:38.239 to They have to move it around, so it's not 0:36:38.360 --> 0:36:40.839 just like getting a vaccine shot or something. They stick 0:36:40.960 --> 0:36:44.520 that long needle on there, they wiggle it around, super painful, 0:36:44.800 --> 0:36:47.799 and then that whole area goes numb, right, it goes, 0:36:47.920 --> 0:36:51.759 It goes super numb. It's super painful. And I had 0:36:51.800 --> 0:36:54.879 gotten so many at that time that by the time 0:36:54.920 --> 0:36:56.720 we got to the final game of the season. Were 0:36:56.920 --> 0:36:58.319 my second year, we were eight and eight. I think 0:36:58.360 --> 0:37:00.040 we were playing the Giants, and if we win and 0:37:00.560 --> 0:37:02.480 we go to the we go to the playoffs. And 0:37:02.560 --> 0:37:04.680 Jason Garrett walked back, walked back, and Britt was with 0:37:04.840 --> 0:37:07.880 me and he was like, Jason, we can't keep doing this. 0:37:08.440 --> 0:37:10.080 We can't keep doing it. Because that point I couldn't 0:37:10.080 --> 0:37:11.759 walk out. I did it for like six weeks. So 0:37:12.120 --> 0:37:14.520 it's it's serious risk that goes into it. It's just 0:37:14.680 --> 0:37:17.360 it's not an easy decision to make, and it's super painful. 0:37:17.400 --> 0:37:19.040 It's not just go back there and get a shot. So, 0:37:19.840 --> 0:37:23.200 you know, more power to the to the players that 0:37:23.280 --> 0:37:25.799 are actually able to go out there and get that done. Yeah, 0:37:26.440 --> 0:37:28.759 it's a terrible experience. I mean I did it something 0:37:28.840 --> 0:37:31.640 similar when I did my ankle. I just did it 0:37:31.719 --> 0:37:33.400 one time because that was enough pain for me to 0:37:33.480 --> 0:37:34.920 be like, nah, I can't do this no more. Like 0:37:35.040 --> 0:37:37.439 Danny said, they moved that thing around. So you hitting 0:37:37.520 --> 0:37:40.040 nerves and all types of stuff, and eventually it goes numb. 0:37:40.120 --> 0:37:41.560 So you feel like, oh, I'm good now. So you 0:37:41.600 --> 0:37:43.279 go out there, you play it. Then you do great. 0:37:43.719 --> 0:37:45.600 That next day you might not feel it as much, 0:37:45.920 --> 0:37:48.200 but that following day, two days after the game, it 0:37:48.480 --> 0:37:50.879 hurts like hell and you just want to just give 0:37:50.960 --> 0:37:53.359 up football for life after that. So it's a tough 0:37:53.440 --> 0:37:55.200 thing to do. And now, in a Mari's case, if 0:37:55.239 --> 0:37:59.839 I'm him, I'm not doing it. I'm saying, look, I'm 0:38:00.200 --> 0:38:02.359 doing it because like I'm going out there, I'm making 0:38:02.400 --> 0:38:04.680 the big bucks. Y'all proved last week with me just 0:38:04.719 --> 0:38:07.040 getting two catches for sixteen yards that y'all can go 0:38:07.120 --> 0:38:08.840 out there and y'all can still be productive without me 0:38:08.920 --> 0:38:10.480 going out there, so theyin't like the offense is gonna 0:38:10.520 --> 0:38:13.279 go to shambles without Margie Cooper being out there. And 0:38:13.400 --> 0:38:15.279 so if I'm him, I'm not doing it. But if 0:38:15.320 --> 0:38:17.120 I'm you know, an a Zora Kamara, if I'm an 0:38:17.160 --> 0:38:20.160 undrafted free agent out there who's barely on the team, 0:38:20.200 --> 0:38:22.719 you know, barely made the team, scrap scraping by, barely 0:38:22.760 --> 0:38:25.000 to get on there, you think about making those type 0:38:25.000 --> 0:38:26.440 of decisions. I mean, when I was a rookie and 0:38:26.480 --> 0:38:28.080 I was, you know, barely on the team, my ankle 0:38:28.200 --> 0:38:29.880 was messed up. I had to make that decision do 0:38:29.920 --> 0:38:32.600 I want to play or risk losing my spot because 0:38:32.600 --> 0:38:35.279 I didn't go out there getting Wally Pipps. So it's 0:38:35.280 --> 0:38:37.800 all depending on where you're at. But in the Mari situation, 0:38:38.000 --> 0:38:40.520 or you got the big bucks almost solidified guy, you 0:38:40.560 --> 0:38:42.640 got so I'm not taking it. So so you're the 0:38:42.880 --> 0:38:44.960 so you're the head coach of the team. Put yourself 0:38:45.000 --> 0:38:46.880 in and you're the head coach of the team. You 0:38:46.960 --> 0:38:49.479 walk to the trainers, the trainer say, yeah, he'll be okay, 0:38:49.520 --> 0:38:50.759 he'd take the shot. You know, he'll be able to 0:38:50.800 --> 0:38:53.400 make it through the game. Uh So now you go 0:38:53.560 --> 0:38:55.000 talk to mar You said, hey, man, this is this 0:38:55.120 --> 0:38:57.279 is what the trainer said. Okay, so you got to it. 0:38:59.480 --> 0:39:01.920 I'm sorry. You're the head coach though, So how do 0:39:02.040 --> 0:39:04.439 you feel now when he says no, I'm I'm gotta 0:39:04.480 --> 0:39:06.680 respect it because because you can't, you can you can't 0:39:06.760 --> 0:39:08.720 just cut the guy. I mean, he still got guaranteed 0:39:08.760 --> 0:39:10.440 bucks on the board, So I mean, you gotta respect. 0:39:10.600 --> 0:39:12.319 You can't force him to do put a needle up 0:39:12.360 --> 0:39:15.000 in his body like that. We've been talking about who's 0:39:15.000 --> 0:39:17.160 the number one guy? Is it Amari? Is it Ced? 0:39:17.480 --> 0:39:20.279 This would solidify that it's going to be CD. Then 0:39:20.400 --> 0:39:22.320 to me that in that case, if I'm like a 0:39:22.400 --> 0:39:24.680 coach and he doesn't want to do it, because we've 0:39:24.719 --> 0:39:26.839 had I mean, Drew Brees came out earlier this year 0:39:26.880 --> 0:39:29.880 and said that he had had over eleven broken ribs 0:39:30.000 --> 0:39:32.480 and he always played. He never would miss a game. 0:39:33.080 --> 0:39:35.640 Deshaun Watson had the same situation, played the whole season 0:39:35.680 --> 0:39:39.399 with broken ribs. And these are like quarterbacks. And granted, yes, 0:39:39.520 --> 0:39:42.360 Amari said he or this or they said that this 0:39:42.520 --> 0:39:44.719 had happened in the first game, and he that's why 0:39:44.800 --> 0:39:46.719 he kind of didn't play as well the second game. 0:39:46.760 --> 0:39:48.279 And then obviously towards the end of the second game, 0:39:48.320 --> 0:39:52.000 we saw he was very hurt. And so it's like 0:39:52.120 --> 0:39:54.080 does he even play this third game? But yeah, I 0:39:54.120 --> 0:39:56.680 think you still suit up obviously, like just give me 0:39:56.800 --> 0:39:59.640 like less less reps, let's figure something out. But I 0:39:59.719 --> 0:40:01.800 still play and then I get the other side of it, 0:40:02.239 --> 0:40:04.800 where you don't want to have the Tyrod Taylor situation 0:40:04.880 --> 0:40:07.960 come where you get your lungs, you know, stabbed on 0:40:08.080 --> 0:40:12.240 accident and are punctured. So I mean, I get both sides, 0:40:12.320 --> 0:40:15.320 but I think in the business of football, you just 0:40:15.480 --> 0:40:17.359 have to suit up and and that's the thing. It's 0:40:17.360 --> 0:40:20.080 a business. Yeah, So when when you go out there 0:40:20.160 --> 0:40:23.479 and you you hurt yourself even further, the organization gonna 0:40:23.480 --> 0:40:28.040 be like, oh man, he are you going to hurt 0:40:28.080 --> 0:40:31.680 yourself further from a bruised rib? Yeah, you break them things. Listen, 0:40:32.080 --> 0:40:34.560 but they've all played with broken ribs. Who's they all? 0:40:35.000 --> 0:40:38.160 The guys I mentioned Drew Brees and m Deshaun Watson, 0:40:38.320 --> 0:40:40.400 their ribs were actually broken. This is just a bruce. 0:40:40.440 --> 0:40:44.399 So if they could play with broken ribs, yeah yeah, 0:40:45.480 --> 0:40:48.359 well I touch quarterbacks. Yeah, you know, you just fall down. 0:40:48.719 --> 0:40:51.040 And I will say that then everybody is different, right, Um, 0:40:51.520 --> 0:40:54.239 so Witten could play with a Bruce Sternham and broken 0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:56.920 Sternham and then it may affect somebody else a different way. 0:40:56.920 --> 0:40:59.160 I will say this is about a Mark Cooper. If 0:40:59.200 --> 0:41:01.560 you're hurt, just don't play, because we know what you 0:41:01.680 --> 0:41:03.719 put out there, you know what I'm saying, when you injured, 0:41:03.760 --> 0:41:05.680 and then weeks later we have to find out just like, 0:41:06.080 --> 0:41:07.799 uh oh, yeah, he's been done with this since week 0:41:07.880 --> 0:41:09.879 one and then go out there week two and it's 0:41:09.880 --> 0:41:12.520 almost invisible, you know what I'm saying. So just healed 0:41:12.520 --> 0:41:14.560 it up so we don't have this lingering throughout the 0:41:14.600 --> 0:41:16.680 whole season. I did say that I believe that Ceede 0:41:16.800 --> 0:41:19.600 Lamb will eventually be the number one guy. I don't 0:41:19.600 --> 0:41:21.120 know if this solidifies it, but this is going to 0:41:21.160 --> 0:41:25.200 give him an opportunity to make those plays. So he 0:41:25.320 --> 0:41:27.200 played for the Cowboys when the Jags, you played for 0:41:27.200 --> 0:41:29.040 the Cowboys, went to the Bears, came back to the Cowboys. 0:41:29.719 --> 0:41:32.000 Is there are there any situations that you can recall 0:41:32.239 --> 0:41:34.880 where there was a players like, nah, I want to 0:41:34.920 --> 0:41:36.799 take that shot. I'm just gonna set this one out. 0:41:36.840 --> 0:41:40.000 And were there any ramifications for that particular player. You 0:41:40.040 --> 0:41:41.359 don't have to give me a name or I would 0:41:41.360 --> 0:41:43.920 give your name because I don't. I don't know specifically 0:41:44.000 --> 0:41:46.040 if it was about taking shot or not. But when 0:41:46.120 --> 0:41:48.000 when I say this, man, Jay Cutler, we had no 0:41:48.040 --> 0:41:49.800 idea if he was coming out of the play, you 0:41:49.840 --> 0:41:51.480 know if he was gonna be ready, if he really 0:41:51.560 --> 0:41:53.320 wanted to be out there or not, just based on 0:41:53.480 --> 0:41:56.880 his demeanor and his availability. Yeah, I had no idea, 0:41:57.080 --> 0:41:59.200 So yes, yeah, I did have one. And we went 0:41:59.280 --> 0:42:01.360 five and eleven, and we had no idea when he 0:42:01.440 --> 0:42:03.000 was gonna be out there, how he was gonna play. 0:42:03.160 --> 0:42:06.160 And I brought my back to the Dallas and I 0:42:06.280 --> 0:42:09.200 played for a guy who broke his collarbone and did 0:42:09.280 --> 0:42:11.400 everything he can to get back in the game and 0:42:11.480 --> 0:42:13.040 then got out there and got hurt again. But he 0:42:13.120 --> 0:42:14.560 put it all on the line to make sure he 0:42:14.600 --> 0:42:16.040 was out there for a team. As a matter of fact, 0:42:16.080 --> 0:42:18.239 he said, what are y'all gonna do when I get back? 0:42:18.600 --> 0:42:20.160 Win it all? Now we didn't do it because he 0:42:20.200 --> 0:42:21.719 went out there and got hurt again. But that's the 0:42:21.800 --> 0:42:24.120 type of guy that that I enjoyed playing for. When 0:42:24.200 --> 0:42:25.719 you play falls, then let me ask you this. When 0:42:25.760 --> 0:42:27.120 you if you're hurt and you go out there, you 0:42:27.160 --> 0:42:28.600 do it all for the team. You're doing all this. 0:42:28.719 --> 0:42:31.200 You're going out there and playing hurt. When you go 0:42:31.360 --> 0:42:33.200 out there, Let's just say your play slips for the 0:42:33.280 --> 0:42:35.960 next four or five games because of the injury. Our 0:42:36.040 --> 0:42:37.960 organization's gonna look at you like, oh man, he's hurt, 0:42:38.000 --> 0:42:39.839 that's the only reason that he's played slipping, or they're 0:42:39.840 --> 0:42:41.440 gonna be like, oh man, this dude can't get it done. 0:42:41.520 --> 0:42:42.640 Let me go ahead and bring it the next guy 0:42:42.680 --> 0:42:47.080 that can get it done, well, I think and Amaris case, yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:42:47.920 --> 0:42:50.240 his case is a little different because this is actually 0:42:50.320 --> 0:42:53.239 this is kind of a consistent thing. So last year 0:42:53.600 --> 0:42:57.200 he's hurt, he has a foot surgery. Uh, he comes back. 0:42:57.280 --> 0:42:58.680 This year he gets hurt in the first game, and 0:42:58.719 --> 0:43:01.080 then now he's available is in question and now we 0:43:01.200 --> 0:43:02.800 found out that he was he had been hurt in 0:43:02.880 --> 0:43:07.080 Week two. Messed up your fantasy team. And I would 0:43:07.160 --> 0:43:09.480 questioning if he's gonna be available for for week three. 0:43:09.680 --> 0:43:12.840 His guarantees are up after this year. Guarantees are up 0:43:12.880 --> 0:43:14.840 after this year. Is making twenty million, but the guarantees 0:43:14.880 --> 0:43:17.520 are up, So does that factory into it. You need 0:43:17.560 --> 0:43:20.200 to be available, man, and and in football is a sports, 0:43:20.239 --> 0:43:23.520 sometimes you're just not available. Like shun Lee, nothing against 0:43:23.600 --> 0:43:27.400 him because he did everything he possibly could to stay healthy. 0:43:27.440 --> 0:43:29.759 He spent a lot of money on his body and 0:43:29.880 --> 0:43:33.399 he just couldn't stay healthy. It's nothing against the guy 0:43:33.600 --> 0:43:36.640 as a person. Sometimes football just does that to people. 0:43:36.719 --> 0:43:38.680 You know what I'm saying that I think right now, 0:43:39.080 --> 0:43:40.960 you know, we're seeing that with with with a marketing. 0:43:41.040 --> 0:43:43.160 Look at Dware towards the end of his Cowboys career, 0:43:43.280 --> 0:43:46.320 the same thing happened. It's back. He just couldn't stay healthy. 0:43:47.640 --> 0:43:52.040 Fight way. Dware is um the list came out for 0:43:52.160 --> 0:43:58.080 first year football his first ballot. He's he's on that list, 0:43:58.520 --> 0:44:02.120 top ten all time him in NFL sacks. So um, 0:44:02.440 --> 0:44:04.239 good luck to him, good luck to him. And I 0:44:04.360 --> 0:44:07.640 lugged out and you saw the segment on Hard Knocks 0:44:07.680 --> 0:44:10.279 where you saw where Michael Parsons together out to me 0:44:10.400 --> 0:44:12.520 that that just warm to my heart watching that right there. 0:44:12.560 --> 0:44:14.719 It's I guess that's what we should have known. Even 0:44:14.760 --> 0:44:18.160 I mean even on his Twitter, he's been like calling like, no, 0:44:18.640 --> 0:44:21.120 Michael Parson's got it, He's gonna be good. He continues 0:44:21.120 --> 0:44:22.680 to cheer him on because I found him on Twitter 0:44:22.760 --> 0:44:24.600 and he's always saying something that's what we should have 0:44:24.640 --> 0:44:27.080 known him. We see Hard Knocks like Michael Parson's about 0:44:27.080 --> 0:44:28.799 to be a beast out here because of it. Yeah, 0:44:29.000 --> 0:44:31.759 he went over there with three vote three votes, three 0:44:31.840 --> 0:44:36.040 vote three Vote Trophy Club, So, um, does this is 0:44:36.080 --> 0:44:38.520 this a must win? Though? Like this is a divisional game, 0:44:38.600 --> 0:44:40.600 and I feel like the NFC East kind of always 0:44:40.640 --> 0:44:43.120 comes down to the last game of the season and 0:44:43.239 --> 0:44:46.719 it's everybody's within one or two games. So would this 0:44:46.840 --> 0:44:48.960 be a game that is, you know, a must win 0:44:49.080 --> 0:44:52.200 for the team? I would say, no, that's like this 0:44:52.360 --> 0:44:59.480 an old teammate Quasi on the show one day, But no, 0:45:00.000 --> 0:45:02.879 I don't think this is ah that I answered it. Oh, 0:45:02.960 --> 0:45:05.160 I don't think this is a must win just because 0:45:05.200 --> 0:45:08.399 it's so early. So we gotta go ahead, just because 0:45:08.440 --> 0:45:11.520 it's so early into the season and and nothing is 0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:13.960 really unfolded, right, So I think we need some more 0:45:14.040 --> 0:45:15.680 time to get into the season to see how these 0:45:15.719 --> 0:45:17.480 teams are really gonna play. It would be great to 0:45:17.560 --> 0:45:19.840 win it. So at this point you would sit Cooper 0:45:20.000 --> 0:45:22.200 and then figured it out later. I wouldn't sit them. 0:45:22.560 --> 0:45:24.560 You would play him as well. I'm playing with twenty men. 0:45:24.600 --> 0:45:29.560 He's gonna play. Yeah, alright, the play is loud show. 0:45:29.640 --> 0:45:32.880 We'll be back at it tomorrow. Barry church Brick Johnson 0:45:33.000 --> 0:45:36.040 to Survivor.
