We got plenty 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:01.720 to get. So that was there for that, Oh, I know. 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:03.880 That was the first thing I said to Barry. I 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:07.280 was like, I'm glad you're here and not Isaiah shark bite. 0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:10.080 He would have been Isaiah would have turned around. 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.000 And been like, hey, I would have made a scene. 0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:13.440 It would have been a whole scene. 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.000 Barry's a good friend over here taking up. 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:30.240 So as we transition from senior green draws. Wait they 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:33.200 were green out of the pack right, Oh yeah, out 0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:33.599 of the pack. 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:34.240 Thank god. 0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:41.120 All right, News and notes, we're gonna go over the 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:44.960 Cowboys injury report as we as we talked about Cooper 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:47.360 BB this week. Obviously the headline is to Marven over 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:50.920 shown he would had the injured reserve unfortunately here shortly, 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:54.080 but Cooper BB, he's in question obviously going into this 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.880 short week. Like I said, my expectation is that he 0:05:56.960 --> 0:05:59.400 will not take the field in Carolina against the Panthers. 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:02.640 Mike mccar said that he is making some progress, there's 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:07.000 a chance, but doesn't sound exactly optimistic. That's not the 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:09.280 way I would describe it. So Cooper Beebe did not 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:14.479 participate in practice on yesterday. Expected Eric Kendricks. He had 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:18.720 a non injury related issue. So he's listed as a 0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:21.440 shoulder because he's been dealing with the shoulder, but the 0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:24.760 reason he misspractice was for a personal matter that's undisclosed 0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:25.200 at this time. 0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:25.600 One year. 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:28.599 Thomas continues to deal with the meniscus issue in his knee. 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:31.240 Did not participate. His was two to three weeks from 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.159 the date of the injury. We'll see if he can 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:36.640 get back on the field this season. Trayvon Diggs limited. 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:40.560 C J goodwhen limited with the hamstring issue. Ceedee Lamb 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:43.360 still nursing the shoulder, but he did practice limited capacity. 0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:47.480 Jordan Lewis hamstring issue, but he practiced in unlimited capacity 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:50.520 as well. Everyone else that's on the injured reserve. I'm 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:53.640 sorry on the injury report. Dran bland Rico, Daldo Tyler, 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:56.280 Gott and Marshaw Kniela and Tyler Smith. They are all 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.520 full participants in yesterday's practice. 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.200 I don't like that.

So really, outside 0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:40.319 of what we know about Cooper BB, nothing else really 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:42.079 jumps out because like I said, Eric Kendricks did not 0:10:42.160 --> 0:10:44.559 practice yesterday, and although he's listed with the shoulder that 0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:46.640 he's been dealing with, it was a personal day for him. 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:48.680 It was something he was dealing with outside of work. 0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:51.960 So yeah, I mean, other than Cooper, Beb everything else, 0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:54.000 I don't want to say it's positive, but it's not 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.640 as it's not worse. It didn't get worse yesterday. 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:57.320 It's been worse. 0:10:57.440 --> 0:10:59.240 I was gonna say it didn't get worse yesterday. 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:01.280 Yeah, And that really all I can say at this point. 0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:05.000 So it's not the worst thing in the world. I'll 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:05.319 give you that. 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:06.520 Man. 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:12.160 It didn't get worse yesterday. That's all I can say. Man, 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:14.520 now that you check me tomorrow, now. 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:16.079 That you've had a little bit of time to kind 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:21.600 of peace through the film of TJ. Pass and brock 0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:25.480 Hoffman as your interior or offensive line, did you feel 0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:30.679 better or worse after watching it again than you did 0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:32.600 on Monday seeing it. 0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:33.200 In real time? 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:38.680 Watching it back gave me the same same film, the. 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:42.360 Same fuzzy wuzzies and mobili that I watching it in 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:45.000 real time. I mean, in real time it felt like 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:47.959 they were really doing well up front, and then you 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:49.840 go back and watch the film and lo and behold 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:52.640 your eyes did not deceive you from the real time assessment. 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.840 They were really doing well. They were protecting Cooper Rush 0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:58.400 quite well. Like we talked about, there were times when 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:00.400 Cooper Rush had plenty of time in the pocket, he 0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:03.320 just didn't make the throw. They were also opening up 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:05.800 lanes for Rico Daldill to continue to do damage on 0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:09.200 the ground. So from my perspective, brock Hoffin and TJ. 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:10.559 Bass played very well. 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.760 If you saw, I mean, I agree with you. But 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:15.640 one thing that I saw as far as the offensive 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:19.559 line goes, was Tuma. Like I thought, last week was 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:21.839 a much better impression of what what you'd want to 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:23.480 see out of Tuma than you did this week. 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:24.400 This week, I agree. 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:27.040 I don't want to say he took a step back, 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:30.200 but it just didn't feel like he brought him work. 0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:31.800 That's one hundred percent. 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:32.199 Part of it. 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:36.839 That's Trey Hendrickson absolutely took him to school. 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:43.040 Trey Henderson. Yeah. 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:44.920 So, and this is really good, right. 0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:47.479 And this is not to say that that Chuman necessarily 0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:50.720 can't handle himself, but Trey Hendrickson does what he does 0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:51.400 to everybody. 0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:52.240 He lines up again. 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:55.080 So Chuman walked into that game with the odds stacked 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:57.760 wildly against him, and it played out how we thought 0:12:57.800 --> 0:12:58.400 it would play out. 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:01.120 Trey Hendrickson is him. I agree. 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:03.360 I just don't think that the footwork was necessarily there 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:05.559 for Tuma this week transpired to last week. 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:08.800 A lot of that is he desgration. 0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:12.599 Yeah, he gets your feet tangled up outside step and 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:14.880 then come inside with the inside step, then go outside. 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:19.800 He's nasty. When I watched it back on Tuesday, it's 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:21.880 still weird to me. It feels like a Wednesday today, 0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:26.360 but Tuesday. Whenever I watched it back, I thought brock 0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:28.800 Hoffman may have had his best game as a cowboy 0:13:29.040 --> 0:13:32.240 in my opinion, because he was uber efficient in pass 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:34.839 block and run block, both at guard and at center. 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:37.040 And if you can do that and then over the 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:39.559 course almost split fifty to fifty, you had about I 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:42.240 think it was thirty snaps at center and it was 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.520 like twenty six snaps sick guard or something like that. 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:48.640 It was almost split fifty to fifty, and he was 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:50.120 just as effective. 0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:53.120 In both spots. And I love that. I think that versatility. 0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:56.120 I was already sold on brock Hoffman by what he 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:59.040 had shown previously, but now I see why he got 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:00.240 the nod over ToJ. 0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:00.680 Bass. 0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:02.280 Bass is still a great player, and I think as 0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:06.000 a pass blocker, I think TJ. Bass was very good. Yeah, 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:09.000 if not perfect for what you were asked to do. 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:11.800 He wasn't perfect in winning every single rep and whatever 0:14:11.880 --> 0:14:15.880 I don't think he allowed did not allow a pressure. 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:17.079 He did have the one penalty. 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:21.720 I didn't love what I saw from a run blocking 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.920 standpoint from from TJ. I think he can still be 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:27.680 downhill a little bit better. I really liked what I 0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:30.680 saw pass blocking from both guys, but brock Hoffman was 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:31.880 the one that did both well. 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:34.520 You say that, but that was Rico o'daddle's best game 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:36.600 as a Cowboys running back, and. 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:40.160 Most of it came after or before TJ. Bass was 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:42.160 in there. Though that's fair. He kept it going, he 0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:44.520 kept running well, and I think they continued to run 0:14:44.560 --> 0:14:46.480 the ball effectively with Rico Daudell and. 0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:48.920 That's after they let off the gas pedal as far 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:49.760 as the run game goes. 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:54.560 Yeah, but I think not that TJ. Bass was bad 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:56.440 as a run blocker. I just think he was better 0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:59.120 as a pass blocker, whereas brock Hoffman was great at both. 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:01.360 You gotta love the that you have currently at offensive 0:15:01.400 --> 0:15:04.280 line when you're fully healthy, you have to. You have 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:07.640 to appreciate what they've done. And the scouts on this 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:12.080 team obviously have had some impressive work when it comes 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:13.680 to evaluating offensive line. 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:15.840 And give credit to the coaching staff too for for 0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:18.800 not giving up on certain guys too. Absolutely, it brought 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:23.920 very easily. Whenever he's picking fights in training camp and 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.840 he's he's showing some nastiness at different times that could 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:28.640 be taken the wrong way from time to time, and 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:31.400 that hasn't been the case. They've stuck with him and 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:35.080 he's rewarding them. I feel much better about this offensive 0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:38.920 line now than I did prior to the Zach Martin injury. 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:40.880 And that's a sentence. I don't think I would have 0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:42.440 ever said it in my entire. 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:45.960 Life, but you're entirely that is accurate. 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:49.880 Yeah, I feel much when you consider this season Zech 0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:53.080 was having because he was banged up time and again 0:15:53.160 --> 0:15:54.840 and he was dealing with what turned out to be 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.800 a generative situation at his ankle. I mean, it's it's 0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:00.920 not an outlandish state meant to make. I mean, we 0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:05.040 we talked about, you know, possibly going bass fishing. Yeah, 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:09.800 before the season ending ankle injury. So yeah, And like 0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:12.520 you said, shouts out to Will McLay and the scouting 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:15.600 staff because in the scouting department, because we're sitting here 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:18.720 talking about in brock Kaufman and TJ. Bass, two undrafted 0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:20.640 guys who are. 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:23.560 Playing andttributing at a high level. 0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:26.360 In short order, contributed at a high level to the 0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:30.240 point where we feel confident about that going forward. That's 0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:33.240 that's saying a lot for both the scouting department, how 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:35.640 they've been coached up and of course those players and 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:38.680 just grinding away, grinding away, looking for their opportunity and 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:40.640 then making the best of it when the opportunity presented it. 0:16:40.840 --> 0:16:43.160 If you would have asked me, and this is why 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:46.920 there's still significant portions of these games coming up down 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:49.200 the stretch, if you would have asked me a month 0:16:49.280 --> 0:16:51.520 ago who the first round pick was going to be 0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:54.080 for the Cowboys, what position group it would be? I 0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:56.120 think I would have said left tackle. I think I 0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:58.000 would have said, Okay, we're gonna pick it. Yeah, I 0:16:58.040 --> 0:16:59.440 think we would have. I would have said we were 0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:02.920 picking in the fifteen, you're going to take You're flipping Guiton. 0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:06.159 You're cutting Terrence Steel, cutting with him completely that this 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:07.880 was a month a month ago. 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:10.959 Let that be No, where you are I'm not there now. 0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:14.520 I think now, with TJ Bass and Brock Hoffman and 0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:16.679 Terrence Steel and some of the things I've seen as 0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:18.920 the season is done on, I think I would rather 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:20.840 keep Guiton at left tackle. 0:17:21.200 --> 0:17:21.840 I am crazy. 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:24.199 I would keep Early on. 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:25.920 In the season, I was like, what good? 0:17:26.040 --> 0:17:29.080 But no, I would totally take a left tackle. Flip Guiton. 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:31.600 Then you've got three first rounders in your in your 0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:34.560 on your offensive line. TJ Bass, at that point in 0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:35.760 my head, was going to be. 0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:36.800 Your future right guard. 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:38.640 One Zack Martin decides to call it quits. 0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:40.400 I love what Cooper BB does at center. 0:17:40.960 --> 0:17:43.400 I felt good about my offensive line with that pick. 0:17:43.920 --> 0:17:46.080 I don't want to do that anymore. Do you want BB? 0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:48.159 What was that? Would you want to go back to 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:52.360 BB after what Hoffman showed? Yeah, because I would put 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:55.000 I would put Hoffman back at guard. BB's your starting 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:58.400 BB's your starter centers, guys. 0:18:00.800 --> 0:18:04.000 And it's an answer, would you would you go back 0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:04.320 to bebe? 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:10.879 I don't know? Wow, Now you're the one, You're the 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:11.560 crazy one. 0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:14.960 All right, mister hot take care to care to drop 0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:16.040 in an explanation like. 0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:17.159 You were that. 0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:20.040 Go to break. 0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:27.080 The window long, I honestly haven't. I haven't watched enough 0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:29.399 of those guys. I don't think we've seen enough. I 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:31.320 haven't watched enough of those guys doing what they do. 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:34.480 But I I there is something about having a sinner 0:18:35.000 --> 0:18:37.920
