Speaker 1: Small town, right, Crosby? We we we we all. Actually,

40
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: Barrett Station is the actual name. That's where the brothers live.

41
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: So we're gonna say, Barrett Stations. So we've all known

42
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: some brothers from the streets. Yeah, ain't no brother from

43
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: the street. They ever have to advertise their stuff. I don't.

44
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: I don't know what that you you give it, you

45
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: give it to the right person. They advertise it. They

46
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: they they taste it. Street start talking. Okay. But yeah,

47
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: So so here's what I'm so. That's what I'm gonna

48
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: let you do about hanging with the boys. Not enough,

49
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: not not over here in this break neighborhood, they're not

50
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,519
Speaker 1: talking about hanging with the boys. I'm gonna give you

51
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: a chance to get your testers out and then we

52
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: see what happened Fallow. Whatever you want, just don't call

53
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: a blue match. Well, welcome to the show. We got

54
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: a lot of talk about what I'm gonna do over

55
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: the next two days is we're gonna really go big picture.

56
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: We got a lot of questions I'm gonna throw at

57
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,519
Speaker 1: you guys, just big picture. Give you guys an opportunity

58
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: to talk about what you think of this team through

59
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: six games. Obviously, it's been very exciting here. It's probably

60
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: more exciting than anything we've seen in quite a while

61
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 1: around here. So I'm gonna start first, I want to

62
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,679
Speaker 1: go back a little bit to the New England game.

63
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: There were a few questions I had from that game,

64
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: and I wanted to start talking to you guys about

65
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: Let's start first, what things do you think Belichick exposed

66
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: that Dallas will have to see over the next few weeks, because,

67
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: as we know, in the NFL, it is a copycat league.

68
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: You show teams what can possibly be a Kryptonite four team,

69
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: they're gonna try to do the same thing. So what

70
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: are you thinks that? What are some of the things

71
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: you think Belichick may have shown this last week? Big

72
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: boy ball, the ability that is simply just I'm bigger

73
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: and I'm stronger than you, and I'm coming at you

74
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: downhill every single play. You saw that with New England's

75
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: first drive. I mentioned it yesterday on yesterday show. They

76
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: with thirteen personnel for the entire first drive. They went

77
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: thirteen personnel for our whole first drive, three tight ends.

78
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: I don't care if we're using all five line in

79
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: all three tight ends and we're coming downhill, good luck

80
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: trying to stop us. And we struggle with that now.

81
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: Obviously we have some of our our key pieces that

82
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: are missing. In turn, the former Gallamore and d Law.

83
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: We'll get Tristan Hill back, you know, some of those guys.

84
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: But that's a problem if we face an opponent that

85
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 1: has the personnel to you know, and that's something that

86
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: we give up by having a fast defense. When you

87
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: have a fast defense, just like when we played against Carolina,

88
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: they had a fast defense, like a running hit you.

89
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: But what do we do. We just said, Okay, we're

90
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: bigger and fasig. We're bigger and stronger than You're gonna

91
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: run the ball down your throat. So when you choose

92
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: to have a defense like we have now that's so versatility,

93
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: that's so fast, that has those various various personnels, we're

94
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: going to give up something. And I think we were

95
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 1: giving up size and strength in that regard. Yeah, I

96
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: think you hit it right on the head. Is for

97
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: a long time, the Cowboys have been weak in the

98
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: middle of their defense up front. And I said in

99
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: earlier last week coming into that show that this game

100
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: will be won or loss at the line of scrimmage,

101
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: that Bill Belichick and company wanted to control that line

102
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, being that they will be physical on their

103
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: side offensively, and then defensively being able to create some

104
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: uh some some some confusion, some pressure, really attack the

105
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: middle of our offensive line. And for the Cowboys, uh,

106
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 1: you know, they really have to kind of if they

107
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: want something to work on to kind of be the

108
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: quote unquote complete team. It's trying to find ways. Okay,

109
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 1: we know that we're fast, we know that we're physical,

110
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: we know that we have dynamic playmakers on our our defense,

111
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: but how can we shore up that middle um. Now,

112
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: when you talk about the team that we have coming

113
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 1: down the stretch next up being Minnesota, we knew what

114
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: we know what Minnesota will try to do to us.

115
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: They will try to do what doing a Patriots did

116
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 1: to us. And Dalvin Cook has been a thorn on

117
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: our side both running the football and catching the football.

118
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: But a lot of teams don't have the ability to

119
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: do what do what the Patriots do. A lot of

120
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: teams don't have the ability to do what Minnesota will

121
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: try to do with Dalvin Cook. So in contrast to

122
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: that is we teams will either have to continue to

123
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: play their style of football and hope that it works

124
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: or try to go another way because most teams don't

125
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: can't do what the Patriots do. You don't have the

126
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: personnel and you don't have the brain power, and that's

127
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: that's that is key. So it's easy to say it's

128
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 1: a copycat league, but it's hard to copycat when you

129
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: know one got the Cats to copy it. But let

130
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: me ask you this, what did you think that this

131
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: last game was an aberration when it comes to um

132
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: the running game and not being able to stop the

133
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: running game? Or had you seen shades of this and

134
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: other games? Maybe other teams didn't do it to the

135
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: level that the Patriots did, But did you see moments

136
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: where you were like, this could be a problem going

137
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: down to stretch. I mean, I think there's pieces that

138
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: we obviously need to shore up on the defensive front,

139
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: but overall we've had some really good play out of

140
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: our defensive front. You got some guys like Osa Basham,

141
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: some guys that are really starting to show up and

142
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: play um. At the end of the day, it comes

143
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: in personnel matchups. And you know, asked why I hate

144
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: when something when people say, oh, well this team, you

145
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: beat this team, but you couldn't beat this team. It's

146
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: all about matchups. It's all about matchups. Just you know,

147
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: there might be some some big boys across that across

148
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: the way that you just can't handle. There's these are

149
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: grown man. They get paid. I'm sorry, Cowboys Nation. These

150
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: boys get paid too, right and um. And that's one

151
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: thing that they invest in. They invest in big guys

152
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: up front and dominant downhill because at the end of

153
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 1: the game, at the end of the day, Coach Belichick

154
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: wants you to have a tight game where he can

155
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: just just smash mouth football. That's it. If he could

156
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: run the ball eighty times a game, he would do it.

157
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: And the thing that we have going to our advantage

158
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: to help our defense. And this is why I was

159
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: so I was all for Mike McCarthy going forward earlier

160
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: in the football game because yeah, I was too. Actually

161
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: I was so forward. I was so. I was so

162
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: forth one because I want to set a tone. And two,

163
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: the thing that the Cowboys can do well that other

164
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: teams can't do is that we can score at track fast. Yeah.

165
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: And when you score early and often, team now have

166
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: to play outside of their realm. And if now we

167
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: gifted them fourteen points, which made us have to kind

168
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: of play a little bit differently, and they were able

169
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: to kind of stick to the script, but what they

170
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: wanted to do. But when you come out early and

171
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: teams already know, they already know. They they cut the

172
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: film one and they like, you got Zeke, you got Tony,

173
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: you got shots, you got Jarwin, you got CDM. Mark.

174
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: You can't stop all these dudes. So once you go

175
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: up fourteen, all running up, running the football and trying

176
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: to eat up possessions and eat up clock, that goes

177
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: out the door. And now you have to play a

178
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: game that we want you to play. And it is

179
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: kind of worked in our favorite because Trayvon Diggs is

180
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: just sitting back there saying, all right, you guys may

181
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: get me for one or two of quarters, and I

182
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: may give up a couple of players here and there,

183
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: but just throw another one. I'm gonna get it. And

184
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 1: so that's the Cowboys have had that advantage all year long,

185
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: is what those weapons offensively, teams haven't been able to

186
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: do what they want to do in the running game,

187
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: you know, to our defense, because you just gotta score

188
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: with us. And the Bill Belichick and Josh McDaniels, they

189
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: came out with a great plan that said, you know what,

190
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: today you will play our game and the Cowboys did

191
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: for most of the game have to play that game,

192
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: and then it just came down to we got one

193
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: too many horses. And then so to Dario's point, do

194
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: you think that that these guys just opened up a

195
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: wound that was already there or do you think that

196
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: because of the game plans or because of how we've

197
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,959
Speaker 1: been ahead again most games, we haven't necessarily had had

198
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: to encounter the running so much. Yeah, a lot of

199
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: people you can try. Yeah, you know, people always say

200
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 1: what Mike Tyson always says, everybody got a game plan

201
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: until you get pushed in the face. Yeah, you know

202
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: what I mean. So you can come out and try

203
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,439
Speaker 1: it if you want to. But when you die fourteen

204
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: points and and and number four and company walking back

205
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: out on the field again, you start saying, all right,

206
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,479
Speaker 1: now we got to match the point of the game. Yeah. Yeah.

207
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 1: And the way I see it is like, yeah, there

208
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 1: are a lot of things that need to be cleaned

209
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: up in the Cowboys played on defense and also on offense.

210
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 1: You know, all the penalties we talked about yesterday. But

211
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: I think that this game and the way that he

212
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: played out it actually showed case something very positive that

213
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: the Cowboys have in our building, and it's to show

214
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: opponents that this is not the same team that was

215
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: years ago and even last year that you know, when

216
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 1: mistakes happen, it just goes down the hill and they

217
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: can't really catch up. No, this is a team that's

218
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:19,439
Speaker 1: actually fighting and going out there and building this chemistry

219
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: of you know, there's no laziness. Even on the defensive

220
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: side of the ball. You can see little things that

221
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: happen that are not good and need improvement, but at

222
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: the same time, you're seeing a defense that is energized

223
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: and go out there with fire and it's fighting back.

224
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: So I think that's something that the fact that they

225
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: won that game the way that they did in overtime

226
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: against Bill Belichick is actually going to show other teams

227
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 1: down the road that this is not a Cowboys team

228
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 1: to really mess around or sleep on. You know, this

229
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: is someone that whatever you do, they're gonna come back

230
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: and keep fighting for it. Yeah. That's a good point

231
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 1: because I think, and I would say this, when you

232
00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: get to a point like that where you have a

233
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: team that handles it city, well, I put that on

234
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: coaching and I put that on confidence, and I think

235
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: this team has a lot of both. Now you can

236
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: say what you want to say about Mike McCarthy, but

237
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: whether it's Mike McCarthy or whether it's the offensive or

238
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator, they're figuring out ways, even when they

239
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: get in a game like that where things aren't going

240
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: their way, to figure out how they can make the

241
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: adjustments they need to make in order to get themselves

242
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: back into the game and ultimately win it. And that's

243
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: the sign of a really good team. Let's talk about

244
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott for a second. We know that he got

245
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: hurt there on that last player of the game. Really

246
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 1: great play obviously to win the game. I was happy

247
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: with the fact that they were just being aggressive and

248
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: didn't just think, hey, we're in our kicker's range, which

249
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: we heard so much this year. Don't do that. If

250
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: you got a chance, your best shot is to left

251
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: forward do his thing, and that's what they did. He

252
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: got the touchdown, but he gets to the calf injury.

253
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: How concerned are you guys about this calf injury injury?

254
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: I know they have the bye week, but that's two weeks.

255
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: Is still not a long time to recover from an injury.

256
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 1: How concerned are you I'm very concerned, like and I

257
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: get it. You know, there's talked throughout the building about

258
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,839
Speaker 1: it's not that bad. You know, initially everybody said, it's

259
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: not Michael Gallop. Right, everyone, it's not Michael Gallop. Right.

260
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to say that it's not Michael Gallop. I'm

261
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: glad they said that too, because my thing is, it's

262
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: the right calf, the same calf, same leg of the

263
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 1: ankle surgery. Now, I'm no doctor, no trainer. I don't

264
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: have a PhD. I went to a public university, barely

265
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: got out of there. But when you talk about that

266
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: particular play, right, Dak Prescott rolling out to his right,

267
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: delivering the ball down the field, what happens when we

268
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: got to do that against Minnesota? What happens when you

269
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: have to do that against Atlanta? Does that now hinder

270
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: his ability to do those things, his ability to be

271
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 1: mobile in the pocket, his ability to take off a

272
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: rowan it's time to take off and run. It may

273
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 1: not be an issue now, Maybe it's an issue two

274
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: weeks from now. Maybe it's an issue three weeks from now.

275
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: Pushing off that leg and a zaid I let you

276
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: speak more into this, because you have more of history

277
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: playing at that position. But everything is so critical from

278
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks position, about balance, about having the right base

279
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 1: to deliver the fault, to deliver the ball accurately down

280
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: the football field. So if your base is off, and

281
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: everything that we want to do in this offense, we

282
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: can't do it now to me, that that worries me something,

283
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: and I think we don't. You can say that, you know,

284
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: we have nothing to worry about because this week we

285
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: act nothing to worry about. We had no game. But

286
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: I just think it's a little bit deeper than just

287
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: we don't have anything to worry about. Well, I say

288
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 1: this first, we don't know how how bad it is.

289
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: Well I don't think we'll ever find out really how

290
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: bad it is. Um, they'll get an MRI. They have

291
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: likely he has the best training staff in the league.

292
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: Trust me, I've tested most of them out. He has

293
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: an amazing staff and he has a lot of all

294
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: the resources he needs. With that said, Backdorn, what what

295
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: Jesse said. We've had two guys out with calf strains.

296
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: Gallop this year. We haven't seen him since week one.

297
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: We're going to week six to six weeks by week Okay,

298
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 1: So we haven't seen gallup since he had his calf

299
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,599
Speaker 1: strain Zach Martin last year. Calf strain. Okay, he was

300
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: out obviously for a minute at the quarterback position. Yes

301
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: it was his his injured ankle, but just taking the

302
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: ankle out of it. As a quarterback, you're dropping back,

303
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: you're pushing off your left leg. As a right handed quarterback,

304
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: you're pushing off your left leg, and you're setting setting

305
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: your base with your right leg. Right, So that's the

306
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: leg that he has to set Now. Obviously, the ankle's fine,

307
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: we can set on an ankle, but now with the calf,

308
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: think about that right that is literally absorbing all your

309
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: energy from dropping back. Now that you've absorbed the energy,

310
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: if you set on that back leg, now you're asking

311
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: him to drive off of that back leg and push

312
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: and throw the ball. Okay, Now people can say, oh,

313
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: he doesn't have to push, he's strung enough arm, all right,

314
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: But now that comes to then to matter what did

315
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: he doing camp shoulder and shoulder and the shoulder pick

316
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: whatever you called it. Right, So if he's not pushing

317
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: off his leg and he's using his upper body more

318
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: to create the velocity, now he's putting that at risk.

319
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: So it's not even just one thing here. It's not

320
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: just the cat on a calf. He'll be okay, we

321
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: don't know how bad it is. It might be something

322
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: he needs a week off of, a week off of,

323
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: or he might need it multiple weeks. But even if

324
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: he is allowed to play, it plays a role because

325
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: now it puts his shoulder at a risk for potentially

326
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: injuring that simply because he's going to be trying to

327
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 1: create velocity off of that versus just sitting back and

328
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: throwing off his regular leg. Yeah, it's a really great

329
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: point because I think both of you guys make because

330
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: one thing begets another right when you start talking about injuries.

331
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: The body is all connected. So if you're favoring something,

332
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: then it puts extra pressure on something else. And how

333
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: long can that handle the extra pressure That can create

334
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: a lot of issues for him. And you can putting

335
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: the physical part aside, and I and Doc is one

336
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: of the most confident guys I have ever met. But

337
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: you have to take into an account the mental aspect

338
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: of it, and you can't help it sometimes, you know,

339
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: hesitation him being mindful of that and then creating that

340
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: extra step his mind and then throwing to the mix

341
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: what Tyler Beat is just dealing with. You know, that's

342
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: something else in the formula there that Dad has to

343
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: kind of keep in mind, the little struggles that he

344
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: has had the center position. Then it just takes away

345
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: maybe from his full focus of this thing of the football,

346
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: that it's actually now becoming something so natural to him.

347
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: You know he hasn't. You don't see him just standing

348
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 1: there in the pocket really thinking things through. So I

349
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: just it makes me wonder, although he's super confident, makes

350
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: me wonder, Okay, is this gonna really kind of slow

351
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: him down mentally and what he's doing in the field

352
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: before making a play aside from obviously what these guys

353
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: mentioned as far as the physical aspect, and I think

354
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: it changes. It's the game planned as well, because when

355
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: he's healthy, right, Kellen can call anything he wants to call.

356
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: But when he's not healthy, you you have to now

357
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: condense what you can call. Right, maybe we're not calling

358
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: as many rollouts. The great thing is you get Lyle

359
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: Collins back. I don't know how rusty he'll be, but

360
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: now you maybe have a little bit more security and

361
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: he doesn't have to kind of scramble that much in

362
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 1: the pocket. But one of his biggest throws if you

363
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: watch in the last game, right, you got the d

364
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 1: D in coming up. What does he do? He pulls

365
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: through and now he has to break out to the right.

366
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 1: Does he have that mobility to do that again? Because

367
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: we're at a point in time of the season where

368
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,639
Speaker 1: there's so much film out there and now teams can say, Okay,

369
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 1: here's what we want to do, here's what we can do.

370
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: And you know you're talking about how to stop this

371
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: Cowboys offense. It's not really no way to really stop

372
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense unless you can get to four. And

373
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: if I know four is hampered, then you've been around

374
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 1: long enough. You've been around long enough, you've been around.

375
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,959
Speaker 1: Zimmer's coming. Like he's not gonna sit back and just

376
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: say we'll just wait. That's not who he is. Like,

377
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 1: Zimm's gonna come and he's gonna bring blitches from every

378
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,639
Speaker 1: single weear and he's gonna test Tyler beyandest he gonna

379
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: test you've been out for five weeks. I'm gonna test

380
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: to see if you're ready to go. And by the way,

381
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 1: I know what y'all said. He was Okay. I know

382
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: y'all said he was all right. We're gonna find out.

383
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out just how okay he really is,

384
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 1: and we're gonna touch him up a little bit. I

385
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: wouldn't even And this is not I want to say

386
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 1: it's dirty, but it's it is said amongst teams. Hey

387
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: make him feel you. I ain't saying hit him late.

388
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 1: I ain't saying be dirty. But every time you get

389
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: close enough, pull a pad on him, pull a little

390
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: shot on him. Let this let him know I'm near,

391
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: I'm coming, I'm touching you. You're gonna feel my presence

392
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: all day long. So it's it's it's one of those

393
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:40,360
Speaker 1: deals where it's it's who Yeah, all right, we're gonna

394
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: take our first break. When we come back, we're gonna

395
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about this offense. I actually

396
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,400
Speaker 1: want to talk about Dak and I want to see

397
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: where you guys place him among the other quarterbacks in

398
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 1: the NFL this year. Because there's a lot of good

399
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: quarter play quarterback play happening, he's obviously among them. I

400
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: want to see where you guys rank him in that

401
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: top five, maybe you push him into that top ten. Well,

442
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: We're talking some Cowboys football. Let's talk about the quarterback position.

443
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: And there's always this this debate that happens around the

444
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: NFL throughout every season of how do you rank quarterbacks

445
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: around the league. There have been some really good quarterback

446
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,880
Speaker 1: play and Dak has been right there among them. I'm

447
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: gonna throw out some names for you guys. These don't

448
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 1: have to be yours, but I want you guys to

449
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: kind of rank your top five for me. You got

450
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: guys like Lamar Jackson, call Murder who, Kyler Murray whose

451
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,880
Speaker 1: team is undefeated and he's playing really good football, Josh Allen,

452
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, lots of good quarterbacks. How would

453
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 1: you rank your top five? And where would you put Dak?

454
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: Start with you, Jesse, everybody don't go in for me.

455
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: I'll say this. I got Dak at three, okay, So

456
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 1: who's one and two? So Dak is three for me.

457
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: I got Kyler playing at two until he's dethroned. Until

458
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: he's dethroned. I'm putting time at one, okay, Tim's that

459
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 1: one to me? And maybe I'm just I don't know.

460
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: He's one of my NFL man crushes, but I got time.

461
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,160
Speaker 1: Uh Aaron Rodgers at four and Lamar Jackson at five,

462
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 1: that's my that's my five. Right, Yeah, I might have

463
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: to say deado man. As I'm going through, y'allouldn't get

464
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: because I actually was. I was thinking you guys might

465
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: give Lamar Jackson a little more love. No, No, I

466
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: think his ability. He makes plays, but I don't in

467
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: terms of everything that a quarterback is in my head,

468
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: I don't think he's consistent enough in that regard, and

469
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: he'd be acting childish. I don't like that. Sorry, But yeah,

470
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: TV twelve is all right, be real with you. I'm

471
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: gonna switch it up a little bit. TV talks my dog.

472
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: You know that we both played with. Right now, Kyler

473
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: Murray's number one. Yeah, Kyler Murray's the most the most

474
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: dominant quarterback in this league right now, simply not only

475
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 1: just with his arm, and it's about to get better

476
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: because he has a tight end coming in right Zach Hurts,

477
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 1: but his throwing ability and he'll destroy you with his

478
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: legs if you even try him, if you even try him.

479
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: I don't think that Dak presents that problem or that

480
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: threat right now. Now, he'll he'll torch you through the

481
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: air right now, and he'll run when he has to.

482
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: But Kyler can create with his legs. So for that reason,

483
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: I gave him number one. Then I go TV twelve,

484
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 1: and then I throw, I throw, I throw Dak in

485
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 1: there probably three, and then you got obviously got Pat

486
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: Mahomes and there number four. So yeah, it's interesting because

487
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, like if and I assume you guys have

488
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 1: watched him back when he was in high school and

489
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,199
Speaker 1: how Dominie was in high school obviously wan a Heisman

490
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,719
Speaker 1: Trophy in college, Like this is who this dude is.

491
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: And it seems like now he's starting to figure out

492
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: the NFL game. And so it should be very concerning

493
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 1: to everybody in the NFL that's not an Arizona Cardinals

494
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: fan that this dude is starting to figure it out.

495
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,919
Speaker 1: He's downloaded the Yeah, he knows how to win, and

496
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 1: like you said, he presents, uh, that unique balance that

497
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 1: I don't know that there's another quarterback in the league

498
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: right now that that is equally good in both those

499
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 1: different areas passing and running as he is, and and

500
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: that are real game changes like he is with his

501
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 1: legs and with his arm like it's just it's the

502
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: That's the last quarterback I want to face. Yeah, if

503
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 1: I was if I, if I, if I was just

504
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator coming into with the thirty third team

505
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 1: ever in the NFL history, that's the last dude I

506
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 1: want to face. You can't game plan him. What do

507
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 1: you do to stop him? Yeah? You draft micup persons.

508
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 1: You need a couple of those. Good luck. I mean,

509
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: that's why I'm circling that I've been circling that game.

510
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: You know, I am circling that game because that's gonna

511
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 1: be a heck of a matchup. All right, So let's

512
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 1: go back to the beginning of the season. Let's go

513
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 1: through these first six weeks, and I'm gonna start with

514
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: you Amber. Tell me, what do you think was the

515
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: most impressive performance that the Cowboys have had. Let's remind

516
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 1: you guys, they lost to Tampa Bay thirty one twenty

517
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 1: nine and start the season. Then they go to Los

518
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: Angeles beat the Chargers twenty seventeen. Dallas then beats Philadelphia

519
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: destroys Philadelphia forty one twenty one. Then they beat Carolina

520
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: at home thirty six twenty eight, then destroy the Giants

521
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,479
Speaker 1: forty four to twenty and then last week's our last

522
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: two gay two days ago, the game against the Patriots

523
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 1: they win thirty five twenty nine. Which game was most

524
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: impressive to you? Well? Week one was pretty impressive, I

525
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: think because of the opponent obviously, and the way that

526
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,439
Speaker 1: they played. They were right up there battling back and forth.

527
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna have to stick with this past weekend.

528
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 1: Then beating the Patriots just because of how dirty the

529
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: game was, you know, the mistakes that were made. Not

530
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 1: just that, you gotta add everything that happened with the

531
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: refs and all the flags and everything that was kind

532
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: of pushing against the Cowboys to not let it go

533
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 1: their way, and yet the way they were able to

534
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 1: fight back, It's just to me, that was pretty impressive.

535
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,679
Speaker 1: That's something I've been wanting to see. So it was

536
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: just honestly the most exciting game and not the most

537
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: enjoyable at times, but definitely I think the one that

538
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: showed the most for them, I would say I would

539
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: say last game. I would say the Patris game simply

540
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: because it had everything, all the forms of adversity that

541
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: you really have to overcome. You had to overcome the environment,

542
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: you had to overcome the greatest coach of all time.

543
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,239
Speaker 1: You had to overcome being down, You had to overcome injuries, right,

544
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: you had to overcome turnovers, so everything that you had

545
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: to overcome. Oh and by the way, you weren't at

546
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: full capacities because you have guys out still, so we're

547
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,199
Speaker 1: still not at one hundred percent. So I feel like

548
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: last week's game was probably the most impressive win to

549
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: date simply because we've had our playmakers had to stand up.

550
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: Not only did we had to game plan our way

551
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,239
Speaker 1: back into the game and stay in the game. We

552
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: get we tried to we try to cancel ourselves out

553
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: with penalties, which were terrible penalties. They have to show up.

554
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: Guys stepped up and made plays. Your playmakers made plays,

555
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: the guys that you pay out the wazoo to make

556
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 1: sure that they do that. But then guess what, the

557
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: guys behind them did it too. So everybody wanted in

558
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 1: on that victory. So I think that was most impressive. Yeah,

559
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 1: it's going to be a clean sweep because I say

560
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: the same thing. Um, it was one of the it's

561
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: one of those games when you go back at the

562
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: end of the year and you're kind of like just

563
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 1: looking at how your season went. That was a defining

564
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: moment for this football team. You go to a place

565
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: where you're historically you just haven't been able to win

566
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 1: up there. Uh, you haven't been winning in Foxborough against

567
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,959
Speaker 1: that coach and that team, And you know what it's all.

568
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 1: You knew what was going to be a tough game

569
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: and you found ways. The biggest thing for this team

570
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: that we have not seen in such a long time,

571
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: and am or you hit on it was the ability

572
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: to adapt and adjust. We talk about it all the

573
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: time and we hear about it all the time, but

574
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: we haven't seen it a lot with this with this

575
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: football team in the years past. But you saw the adjustments.

576
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: You saw the team continue to fight. You saw them

577
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: overcome adversity and from many many, many, many many many

578
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: times before a team that we've seen we're going to

579
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 1: a game like this and fold like cheap lawn chairs

580
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: and would have been like, uh, we're gonna take this ellen,

581
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: go on head home. But they kept fighting, kept fighting.

582
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: Tying the Secy came in and held his own for

583
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 1: a little bit, said Wilson with the probably outside of

584
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: maybe CDs catch, probably had one of the best catches

585
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: and mighty the most important catch of the game on

586
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: the fourth down. And for your quarterback to go on

587
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: a fourth down and say, you know what, yeah, I

588
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: get it. He's done. Number four our receiver, I'm throwing

589
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 1: it to him. I'm throwing it to him. And and

590
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: hell of a throw and even hell of a catch

591
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,719
Speaker 1: because that ball had to be perfect. Right, You're not

592
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: going to CD who had a great game, You're not

593
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: going by the way. It wasn't perfect. Said had to

594
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: go up and get down. That was like perfect throw,

595
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: like maybe the perfect throw saying because it was a

596
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 1: dB that was sitting right there like you know what

597
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it was perfect a sense of getting it

598
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: right over the height and said, you know, set went

599
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: up there and got it. So this was this game

600
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: had a little bit of everything in it, man, And

601
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: to walk out of there victorious is one that can

602
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 1: carry the momentum for this team for I mean weeks

603
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: upon weeks upon weeks, because you can look back and say, hey, man, listen,

604
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: we were down, we were out, the refs, you know, away,

605
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: the crowd was against us. Everything was against us, but

606
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: we battled through, we fought through, we came out with

607
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 1: a victory, and those type of things you look at

608
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 1: and you say, this is how you win championships. This

609
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: is how you put yourself in a position to win championships. Yeah,

610
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: the fact, no matter if you watch the NFL, you know,

611
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: any team that's gonna go deep in the playoffs has

612
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: these kinds of games and they win these kinds of

613
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: games because that's the nature of the playoff. Like that's

614
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: gonna be NFL playoff football. Like when you're playing these

615
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: good teams, you're gonna have adversity. They're gonna win some too,

616
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 1: Like you said before, they get paid too, and they're

617
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 1: good teams too, So you're gonna have to just weather

618
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: the adversity. You gonna have to figure out a way

619
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: to win. You keep chipping and then when it gets

620
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: down the end of the game, you gotta make a play.

621
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: And I think there's a lot that was made about

622
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: that game offensively and then driving down and get that.

623
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: But you gotta get some credit to the defense, Like

624
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: going they're into overtime, they made a stop, like they

625
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 1: didn't allow them to get down kick a field goal.

626
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: That was none of that. They had to stop and

627
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: forced them to punt. That you put on the defense

628
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: because we always talk about this defense, can you make

629
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: the stops at the moments in the game when you

630
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: need to make the stop. They did and not allowed

631
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 1: the opportunity for the offense to Then going past years,

632
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: how many times how we would would we talk about

633
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: how the defense would be already tired, like towards the

634
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: second half of the game. It's like they were exhausted,

635
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: and obviously that affects them. But now they can keep

636
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: up and obviously with the help that the offense is

637
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 1: given them. It's just it's creating the perfect balance for them.

638
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: What I mean, that's created because you got guys that

639
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: are secondary and third you know, third guys that are

640
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,719
Speaker 1: stepping up and making plays. So as a defensive coordinator,

641
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: you can rotate them. Now you can rotate guys. The

642
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: guys aren't having to be out there as long they're

643
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: not getting all those raps on them anymore. But you know,

644
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: but to that point, you know, we had guys that

645
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: were some you know wood what do you said it yesterday?

646
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: We have some just some dogs, you know, Randy Gregory,

647
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: They should have had a holding call. They didn't call it.

648
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: So what did he do? Did he complain about it? Now?

649
00:30:58,240 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: He got pissed off and said, forget it all right,

650
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: I'll make the play right, all right, since you're since

651
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: trying gonna call it, I'm gonna run through this dude's face, right,

652
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 1: And then you got DIDs coming up there and snatching

653
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: that thing up. Um you got you know, I mentioned

654
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: Yesterly Gifford. I don't know how he got through there. Yeah,

655
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: but Gifford was like, hey, don't forget about me. I'm

656
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: abo to make a play. So you know, you got

657
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: everybody coming off. You know, everybody's coming to the playground

658
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: trying to make play. But that's what winning does. Like,

659
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: when your team is winning, you want in however you

660
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: can get in, coach special Team, all right, come on,

661
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: I'm in because you you wanted your name to be

662
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: a part of something you don't want to just when

663
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: you're losing, you just like, man, my check will be

664
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: hill Tuesday. You know what I'm saying, Like whatever, But

665
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: when when it's when you're winning and everybody's enthusiastic and

666
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: you're looking around, you're saying, how can I be a

667
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: part of this. How can I get a chance to

668
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: get my name in the billing? And so this is

669
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: this is I said this worth wrong with two weeks ago.

670
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: This is a rejuvenated team because guys want you want

671
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: to be a part of winning. You know, That's why

672
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,320

710

Speaker 1: simple factors, the crease in his hat, the bend of

Speaker 1: Back to the Break, Welcome back, Final segment of The Break,

719
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:33,439
Speaker 1: Live from the SWBC Mortgage Studios at the Star. We're

720
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 1: talking about the offense, big picture, about the offense. Smart

721
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: We'll get into some topics around the defense. But there

722
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: have been two players I want to talk about who

723
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 1: have been out on injury and presumably maybe coming well,

724
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: not injury action for Lyle it was a suspension, but

725
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: both are projected to possibly be back after the buy.

726
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: You've got Lyle Collins right tackling. You got wide receiver

727
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: Michael Gallop. My question for you guys is who will

728
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: add more to the offense when they return? Because both

729
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: of the replacements have played fairly well here in their absence,

730
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:09,240
Speaker 1: Who adds more when they come back? Gallop? Why what?

731
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: He what you have to You have to respect the

732
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 1: crap out of him when he's on the field. Um,

733
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: he is our deep threat. Yes, Cedric Wilson can run um,

734
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 1: but he's not a He's not feared by the opposing team, right,

735
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 1: maybe just because he hasn't had enough reps to be feared. Um,

736
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,439
Speaker 1: he's fully capable. But Gallop is known when you when

737
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,399
Speaker 1: Gallops on the field, you better identify what the heck

738
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 1: he's at, otherwise he's gonna end up behind you and

739
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 1: your sake, thank you. Cedric an advantage, though I'm not

740
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: if we're not utilizing him that way, right, So, I

741
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: mean that's so, that's that's the thing, right, I mean,

742
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: so it gives him advantage if you're gonna go to him.

743
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 1: But Gallup could draw draw. I mean, now, Gallup might

744
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: come very well come back and not get the ball.

745
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: But guess who else is gonna eat Coop's gonna eat CD,

746
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: is gonna eat Schultz, is gonna continue. Safety has to

747
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: respect to respect him, and if you don't respect him,

748
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: you're gonna he's gonna hit you over the head with

749
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 1: the oopsie because him. Because Gallop and Um and Dak

750
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,399
Speaker 1: have a great relationship, right, and they have chemistry. So

751
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: I think Gallup comes back and has a great impact.

752
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 1: Whenever he does decided or have opportunity to come back,

753
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: Collins would come back. And he's the for sure thing,

754
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: right He's the thing that you don't have to worry

755
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 1: about him. But his replacement has stepped up and not

756
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 1: raised any concerns. So in terms of who had the

757
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,479
Speaker 1: greatest impact, I have to go with Gallup. I would

758
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 1: agree with Gallup. But it's interesting we were talking about

759
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,879
Speaker 1: it during the break. You know what happens when Lyle

760
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: comes back, and it's one of those things that this

761
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 1: offensive line has had so many struggles injury wise, you know,

762
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: and then getting adjusted and adapted to different things. You know,

763
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: last year we saw many switches and then we finally

764
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 1: got a guy that didn't have a great year last year,

765
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: and then this year is stepping it up, and I'm like,

766
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to move. I don't I don't want

767
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: to touch it. And I know it's Lyle. I know

768
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 1: he's a guy that has proven himself as well. But

769
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: then when something is working, why mess with it again?

770
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: So I'm curious what is really gonna happen here, And

771
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 1: if one thing McCarthy has shown, and it was last year,

772
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: he's not necessarily scared to be like, oh well, he's

773
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: the starter. He has to be there. We saw it

774
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 1: happened last year, and I know a veteran guy has

775
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 1: their power, and you know he's the guy that's supposed

776
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: to go there. But McCarthy seems to not be afraid

777
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:26,879
Speaker 1: to do the un what would you call that unconventional

778
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:30,720
Speaker 1: unconventional thing. So we'll see what happens there, but I'd

779
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 1: definitely go with Michael Gallup. That's the biggest threat. But well,

780
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: to combat both of your points, because I'm going with

781
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 1: Ile Collins. You just said, right, and you said, well,

782
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 1: if it's not broke, if it's not if it ain't broke,

783
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: you know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. That

784
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 1: wrote is passing game, that is slaying that thing around

785
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: the Park seven eight guys a game, get at least

786
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: a catch up too. We ain't missed Michael Gallup. Ain't

787
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: nothing that Michael Gallup has brown that we've We sit

788
00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 1: back and we go dangn man, I'll show us. We

789
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: would have had a deep threat. Nope, if we didn't

790
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 1: get a holding a health a penalty said it would

791
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: have had a fifty yard bomb last game. The passing

792
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: game has not fallen off, not one bit. When it's

793
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 1: been time to go to the passing game easily? How

794
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: do you want it? Who wants it? Where it's gonna go?

795
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: So for me, it's show up the offensive line and

796
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,959
Speaker 1: I get it. Ty Steel has done a good job

797
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: this year. He has earned himself some money because we

798
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: all know it's hard to find offensive lineman in this league,

799
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: and once you find a couple, you'd like to keep

800
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 1: those bad boys. So now we know that he can play,

801
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: he could we finally found our swing tackle. So if

802
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 1: if Tyrant happened to have a little bit of lingering

803
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 1: neck or elbow or shoulder or kneel or ankle or whatever,

804
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 1: cool Terry Steel is playing with a ton of confidence.

805
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: He is familiar with the calls he's familiar with the

806
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: offensive line, and now we can shift him up to

807
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: the left hand side. But if I want to be

808
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 1: a dominant offense, not just the dominant passing game. If

809
00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: I want to be a dominant offense, then I want

810
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: the best players on my offensive line. And while Terrence

811
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: has played a really good season, Lyle was a better player.

812
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: There's a reason why Lyle was in next position before

813
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: the suspension. Michael Gallup, we haven't missed a beat. Nobody

814
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 1: has missed a beat. Dac Is still has the highest

815
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: completion percentage in the National Football League, is third in

816
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the National Football League, is third in yards

817
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. So there's no need to

818
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 1: go out there and mess with the receivers. They're all

819
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: doing just fine. But let me challenge you a little bit.

820
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: And you guys both played in the league, so you

821
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: know this. You've seen this. There's something about an NFL offense,

822
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 1: especially good teams, about their ability to evolve as the

823
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: season goes on. As the season goes on, they start

824
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 1: showing more and more and more. So just when you think,

825
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:48,720
Speaker 1: let's say, for example, you just finished a New England

826
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 1: game where you feel like maybe Belichick may have exposed

827
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 1: some things like this may be a way for you

828
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: to kind of slow them down a bit now adding

829
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 1: that new wrinkle of oh yeah, by the way, we

830
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 1: got this guy that can go yard on you, like right,

831
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:02,879
Speaker 1: That's the part that maybe missing a bit. They haven't

832
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 1: done that a whole lot. This year. We saw CD

833
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 1: have the deep pass. Was that last game not the

834
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: last game game four last, But that has not been

835
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 1: something that is traditional that has been in this offense

836
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: a lot this year. It was in the offense a

837
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: lot last year before Dad got hurt. So I'm interested

838
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: to see is this a moment where the offense can

839
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: evolve even more and create even more of a problem

840
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 1: for a team that's getting ready to play the Cowboys

841
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 1: on how do we now handle this challenge? Due now

842
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:30,800
Speaker 1: it becomes a situation do we have to take away

843
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 1: the running game, do we have to take away the

844
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: short to medium passing game, or do we have to

845
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,359
Speaker 1: really be concerned about the deep ball and giving up

846
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: that one or two play drive that now turns into

847
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: a touchdown. That's the part where I think Gallup can

848
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 1: provide a big difference over what they have now because

849
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,560
Speaker 1: he allows the offense to evolve. YEA, what do you

850
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: think That's why? I think I think Gallup is presents

851
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 1: more of a respect factor in terms of what the

852
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 1: defense has the honor. Right. No, I'm not disrespect or

853
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,439
Speaker 1: disregarding what you're saying, turn Collins. Collins is a better player,

854
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 1: and that's still that's that's easily said. But there's a

855
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: continuity aspect that goes with offensive line. Right, and when

856
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: you've missed how many games? Five games? When you missed

857
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: five games, it's gonna take a little bit to get

858
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 1: rolling again. All right, now, will you get there? Absolutely right?

859
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: But do I see us all of a sudden becoming

860
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: a more dominant running game, the running team because Collins

861
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 1: is in there. No, because our issues have come from

862
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,320
Speaker 1: the interior line, because we're undersized there with Connor William

863
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: and Tyler Beads. We're undersizing the interior. We haven't had

864
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: any issues running outside. I think that Gallup gives his

865
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: ability to score more and to be threatened more and

866
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 1: do more offensively. Now, huge testament everything that you just

867
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,359
Speaker 1: said in terms of Kelly Moore, his ability to make

868
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,839
Speaker 1: things happen even in the absence of Gallop. That's a

869
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: great officsive coordinator make you feel like you're not missing

870
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: a beat in never Guard, but we are missing him

871
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: in terms of our ability to go over the top,

872
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: and we have not until your point, we have not

873
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: had that threat. All of our big plays. We had

874
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: one they ran, they ran man and CD got by

875
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: him last week or the week before. But everything else

876
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 1: has pretty much been over routes, pretty much been over routes.

877
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: We had our big plays and that's cool, but we

878
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 1: need a guy to can get that. Yeah, but that's

879
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: been go look at the across the league, what has

880
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 1: been the dominant route that people have this this this

881
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 1: new deep over situation. They say, Okay, I'm gonna clear

882
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 1: out the top and I'm gonna take one of my

883
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 1: fastest guys and it's run them across. And if I

884
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: get to protect, if I get the protection at the

885
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 1: offensive line to protect me, then I can just I

886
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 1: can just wait for him to go from this hash

887
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: mark and looking good I got from that. I got

888
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,720
Speaker 1: from this hash mark to that zideline. My guy's faster

889
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 1: than that safety or that DBS on his hip, and

890
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: I could just throw it out there for a big play.

891
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 1: The vertical passing game. The Randy Moss put your hand up.

892
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 1: Passing games, it's changed. It's you see more of the

893
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 1: deep overs. You see more of a clear route than

894
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 1: then once you hit him on that one time with

895
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 1: that clear out, now that safety bites down and now

896
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: you hit him over the top. But you know, and

897
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: I think we're all agreeing with that. I think the

898
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: point though, is that just adds that extra dimension now,

899
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 1: but you gotta protect it. I get that, but especially

900
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: now when your quarterbacks has a bad calf. I get that.

901
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 1: But what I will say is, if you watch that

902
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: game yesterday, there were a couple of moments when things

903
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:08,919
Speaker 1: got a little weird, but there were a lot of moments,

904
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 1: and Antonia was talking about it on the game a lot.

905
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: There were a lot of moments where Dak was just

906
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: standing back there. It had all day, like there was

907
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: a wall of protection. And so even with still they're

908
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 1: giving him time, he has time to get the ball

909
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,400
Speaker 1: out there. You get a guy like Gallop out on

910
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 1: the outside now who can really go yard. I think

911
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 1: that's where you have just that extra dimension. You're right,

912
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: the crossing routes are always in today's game. That's that's

913
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,760
Speaker 1: the preferred way to get the ball down field quickly.

914
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 1: But I think you when you got that guy that

915
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 1: can just go, I think that adds a whole different

916
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:39,839
Speaker 1: dimension to the offense. Or right now, I just don't

917
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,799
Speaker 1: think they have you know what. I not to say

918
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: that turn Smith is gonna be out or anything, but

919
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 1: we already know that he's getting banked up, and history

920
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: says Tyre is gonna miss two games. With that being said,

921
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:56,359
Speaker 1: I feel more comfortable keeping still in the game, just

922
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: to keep the rhythm going and keep him doing what

923
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 1: he's been doing. And just what are you saying to

924
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:11,359
Speaker 1: bench him? No, Leo, I mean he can warm up

925
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:19,920
Speaker 1: and hey, welcome to the break. Stay ready, stay down

926
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:25,320
Speaker 1: over there for a minute. We're talking about good chemistry.

927
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,320
Speaker 1: There's no hard feelings. It's okay. I know he really

928
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,480
Speaker 1: tried hard to get back on the field and get

929
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 1: back from that suspension. But at the same time, I

930
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 1: don't want to mess with Steele leave him there. I

931
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 1: have a feeling. I'm not saying. I obviously do not

932
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 1: want him, don't want this to happen, but if Tyrant

933
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,959
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, is not able to play, I'd rather,

934
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: you know, at that point, bring Lyle collings back in

935
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,800
Speaker 1: who is the guy who has the experience. He's a veteran.

936
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,399
Speaker 1: He can get back into things rather quickly than me.

937
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: Mess with the guy that's uh, you know, finally starting

938
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: to find his groove. So that's that's how I see it,

939
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 1: and I get it. It's a battering guy at all.

940
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 1: But let's ask no hard feelings, which position poses more

941
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 1: of a threat of something going wrong by replacing the

942
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,799
Speaker 1: guys that currently are in position? If you're by replacing steal.

943
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 1: If you replace Steal, is there a greater chance of

944
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 1: Collins causing some issues upfront? There's a loaded question. Is

945
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,600
Speaker 1: a loaded question, but but there's risk. There's risks because

946
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 1: because I mean, you can put a receiver out there

947
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:26,799
Speaker 1: and he literally has no impact in the game. You

948
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:28,799
Speaker 1: just don't go to him, and it doesn't hurt you,

949
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't help you, you know whatsoever. Ahead add to

950
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 1: my point, No, I'm add to your point. It's not

951
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,399
Speaker 1: he was making your point. But what I'm saying is

952
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 1: is that that Lyle, you know, anything can go wrong

953
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 1: with the offensive line, right, It's like, here's a bad

954
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,920
Speaker 1: like offensive line and cornerback are the two positions on

955
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,720
Speaker 1: the field where you can do everything right for ninety

956
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,919
Speaker 1: nine snaps yea, and on the hundred snap you could

957
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 1: be so dominant for ninety I mean pancake blocks or

958
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 1: ask break us and your break coverage and all that,

959
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,959
Speaker 1: and then on a hundred snap give up a sack

960
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you trash. You can give

961
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:11,560
Speaker 1: up you know, a pass behind your head and four

962
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 1: touchdown games over now it's like you're like, wait, I

963
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,839
Speaker 1: just locked him down for not one. So those are

964
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 1: the two spots where it's so much pressure on them

965
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: for them to be so good all the time because

966
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 1: the one moment they aren't can be so to that point, though,

967
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,320
Speaker 1: to that point are you secure? And now this is

968
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 1: no knock on comments. This is anybody in the offensive

969
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,919
Speaker 1: line with your officsive tackle, you're right tackle, right coming

970
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 1: out and missing six weeks, he's he's been, he's gonna

971
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: be six weeks rusty. This isn't This isn't him coming

972
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 1: through all the through camp and then coming in and

973
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:43,879
Speaker 1: playing against Tampa Bay Buccaneers and he's fresh and he's

974
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 1: been playing. This is six weeks of not practicing. By

975
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 1: the way, remember, offensive line is the area where we

976
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 1: always hear it. It's about continuity as much as it

977
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 1: is about any individual and the abilities. It's about how

978
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,399
Speaker 1: are they're working as a unit. So if you got

979
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 1: a unit that's working pretty well together, do you really

980
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: want to disrupt that? Remind me again, how much work

981
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 1: do you actually get to do when you're suspended? Are

982
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 1: you you're not allowed to work out, to work out

983
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 1: with the trainers. Yeah, he was able to be in

984
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 1: the building, but he was not able to practice. He

985
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 1: hasn't practiced him at all for six weeks for this well,

986
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 1: after this week, it will be six weeks. You give

987
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,800
Speaker 1: me the best player. That's just me here, that's just me. Honestly,

988
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 1: I don't think you got a wrong in I don't

989
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,359
Speaker 1: think you got a wrong exactly. That's exactly right. Yeah,

990
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 1: I think you when when Monday gets here, uh you know,

991
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 1: whenever they get back to practice whatever you know, for

992
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 1: for for the Minnesota game, run him at some gasers. No,

993
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,919
Speaker 1: you're right all the time, buddy, Like you can't be tired.

994
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 1: You just have five weeks off. Let's go, let's let's go,

997
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:47,400
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, Lyle will get every single rep in practice,

998
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 1: like do you will? Don't think about facts when we're

999
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 1: doing the water break. Go get a rap facts, like

1000
