No, you can't have no wedgies, 28 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: wedgie free. This is a wedgie free show. This is 29 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: not a seahawk free show. Today they'll start breaking them 30 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: down today. We did a little bit yesterday. I thought, Brian, 31 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: by the way you on on the website today, you're 32 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: gonna start diving into it. You're to have your three 33 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: key guys, right, the Nemesis, the Weapon, and the under 34 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: the radar. So if you can check that out, that 35 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: should be up here in a little bit. I bet 36 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: I know one of them. Give me one of them. 37 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 1: I bet j Mickey could talk about my first guy, 38 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: Earl Thomas on that list. Nemesis. Yeah, that's yours. I 39 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: think he's my weapon, he's your weapon, he's my webon weapon. Yeah, 40 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: he's the weapon. Well, and I think he's the weapon 41 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: because of what we what we potentially what we went 42 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: through last week with Landing Collins, that if you get 43 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: a guy that plays at some depth that can come 44 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: forward and make tackles and create problems for you, you know, 45 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: with no Cam Chancellor, they don't have that ability. They 46 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: need somebody that sits in the back and and comes 47 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: flying up to make those plays. So that's that's gonna 48 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: be the weapon that they're gonna have to do. He's 49 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: a guy, and we have to be careful with this too. Boys. 50 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: Is if you get uh Dak Prescott running the football, 51 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: you know, and you do the read options and the 52 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: things where he's keeping, that's a little bit different. Cat. 53 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: We saw what happened when Jalen Smith gets ahead of 54 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: steam coming forward. Same thing can happen with Earl Thomas 55 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 1: coming forward on your quarterback. So I have to be 56 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: a little bit careful about that. Have to be careful 57 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: with him creating turnovers, not only interceptions, but also the fumbles. 58 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: This guy's always ripping at the ball. He's always trying 59 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: to get the ball loose, so runners in piles have 60 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: to be careful with him. He's just still plays at 61 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: a tremendously high level. Missus all the training camp and 62 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: has an interception in Denver game. So that just shows 63 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: you he's always going to be around the football and 64 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 1: he's always gonna be physical finishing. So those are things 65 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: you have to be worried about with him, and that's 66 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: why I described him as this weapon here for the Seahawks. 67 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: I went back and watched the game for Monday night 68 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: specifically to see him. Now, I didn't have the all 69 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: twenty two, right, I didn't have it either, but so 70 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: it's hard to see the secondary. The stats said he 71 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: had four tackles, two assisted. Yeah, nothing else zeroed out. 72 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: I didn't notice him in the game. I didn't notice 73 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: him make a difference in that game. And I'm looking, 74 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: I'm looking for twenty nine and I see him coming 75 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: in late, standing there watching people make tackles. I saw 76 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: him myself make like three tackles. Yeah. I didn't see 77 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: him force anything. I just he was a no show 78 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: in the game. Now that they didn't play very well defensively, 79 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: and they're missing their linebackers, so that could have something 80 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: to do with it. Yeah. Uh. The guy I would 81 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: worry about is Bobby Wagner. If he's gonna play, Yeah, 82 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: and I don't think. I think. I think he's gonna 83 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: be back. I think he's gonna play in this game. 84 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: That's the guy I would worry about because they've struggled 85 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: with middle linebackers the last couple of weeks. That is true, 86 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: like getting to the second level block tomorrow, you get matchups, 87 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: so get ready for that. That's that's one of the 88 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: guys I would worry about. But I just didn't see 89 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: anything from Merle that said, boy, I got to give 90 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: up a second round pick for that. Well, you don't. Now, 91 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: you don't have to get up a second round pick 92 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: now if you want to do that. And you know, 93 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: one of my things, I think the question you have 94 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: to ask yourself today is do you feel good enough 95 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: about the safeties that you don't want to make a trade? 96 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: You know, when you when you start bringing up Earl Thomas, 97 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: I still think Earl Thomas is an elite player. Me 98 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: and I understand Mickey what you saw, and I'm not 99 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: as long as people are watching and looking at their 100 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 1: own eyes, I never I'm not going to question somebody's analysis. 101 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: You know you're you're sitting down yet you know, hell, 102 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: you'll get scouts to sit in a room and look 103 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: at tape together, and you'll have ten different opinions on 104 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: a player. So I'm not considering, say, Mickey, you don't 105 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: know what the hell you're talking about, but you know, 106 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: I think that you have to. I think that you 107 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: you know, you have to look at this, uh, you know, 108 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: this situation with the Cowboys though, and and you know, say, okay, 109 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: what you know, how's it going to roll? You know? Yeah, 110 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: two games in. I mean, especially with the safety spot. 111 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: I mean that's you know, do you feel good enough 112 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: about Cavon Frasier? Do you feel good enough? I mean, 113 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: I've got, like iaid, I've got some questions today and 114 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: I hope we get to them in the second half. 115 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: We will, And I just want to ask you guys 116 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: these things, and hell, I'll ask I'll ask this question 117 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: right now then if if it helps, if it helps 118 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,679 Speaker 1: our discussion. You know who's been a better super sub 119 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: Joe Luniar, Cavon Frasier. You know, if you think of that, 120 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: I mean you and I include Caveon Frasier that because 121 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: the safety I mean, maybe you don't have to go 122 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: get Earl Thomas. Maybe when when when Xavier Woods comes back, 123 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: Cavon Frasier will be a good backup guy to have. 124 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: I don't think he's killed him. Through the first two 125 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: weeks this season. I bet I've been impressed with I'd 126 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: say Cavon because I've been impressed with just how many 127 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: snaps he's handled with a shoulder injury. By the way, 128 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: He's never played that many snaps, and he had the 129 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: sack the other night. That's also good scheme. I mean, 130 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: just dialing up those blitzes and that's it is more 131 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: than what we've seen under Rod in the past. I'd 132 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: go with Cavon. Although Joe Luney has has been solid. 133 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: I think, especially in the Giants game, the offensive line 134 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: is ahole did better job. Who is And I don't 135 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: mean to answer a question with a question, but Cavan 136 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: Frasier has surprised me. Oh yeah, surprised you guys by 137 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: not because we all thought, oh, I have another question. 138 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: Surprise most of the line of scrimmage. But he's kind 139 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: of played in coverage. He's I didn't think he had 140 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: the ability to blitz. I didn't think he had the 141 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: ability to cover. I knew he had the ability to 142 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: hit you, yeah that I did know. He made a play, 143 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: broke up a pass in space against Christian McCaffrey in 144 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: Week one, and I said, wow, Okay, I mean that's 145 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: a dimension that we don't hear about with him. You know, 146 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: Xavier Woods is the coverage safety in that group. You know, 147 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: maybe this, I guess the point I'm trying to make 148 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: is maybe this group was right the group, I mean, 149 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: the front office about their safeties. Yeah, they did try 150 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: and get Earl Thomas, but they only tried to get 151 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: Arl Thomas after the Seattle Seahawks allowed him to try 152 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: and get Role Thomas. But there's a there's a side 153 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: of me that and I love Earl Toomas I do. 154 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I heck, I'd take Earl Thomas every day. 155 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: But maybe they don't have to take Earl Thomas now, 156 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: maybe because of what you think of Cavon Frasier and 157 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: what you think of you know, the potential of Xavier 158 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: Woods and Jeff Heath. You know, we don't know a 159 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: whole hell of a lot about Campbell. You know, he's 160 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: the one guy that survived yesterday. You know, they got 161 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: rid of Robinson, Tyree Robinson wave for Bryce Butler, who 162 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: is officially back. Yeah, but I don't. Maybe maybe Frasier 163 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: and these guys, these Safeties are making them feel like, 164 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: you know what, we don't have to make that deal. 165 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: And then and then can you factor in, I don't know, 166 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna save ten million dollars? Yeah, I mean I well, 167 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: it's because that's still girls gonna count. It's sure cost sure, 168 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: And you're absolutely right. I think to me it would 169 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: be worth it for ten million dollars. But there's also 170 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: a side of me that also is not stupid enough 171 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: to bang my head against the wall and say and say, well, 172 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 1: these Safeties were playing bad. And you know, if the 173 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: Safeties were playing bad, you would have to say, okay, 174 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: it's worth it to go get Earl Thomas. But necessarily now, 175 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 1: I don't through two weeks. Two weeks. I look at 176 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: the roster and I asked the question too after two games, 177 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying there's other trade opportunities out there 178 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: at certain spots I don't know, but well, you okay, 179 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: left my release behind. I wanted to look at the schedule. 180 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: Here you go, buddy, which side of the ball needs 181 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: help more? See that's where that's okay. This will lead 182 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: me to another question. If you going, let's keep going. 183 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: If you could trade for a position to help this team, 184 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: right now, what would you trade for? Just a position? 185 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: I'm not asking you to give me a player, but 186 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: is there a position that you would consider trading for? 187 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: That was question number five that I had on this list. 188 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: If you could trade for a position to help this team, 189 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: what would it be? Thanks, I left it behind. Yeah, 190 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: this is all wrinkled. Yeah, mine back before he spilled 191 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: coffee on it or something. Any position? Yeah, is there 192 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: a position that you would trade for? Well, I'm looking 193 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: at I got one of mine. I'm looking at wide 194 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: receiver and tight end. Yeah, I'm I'm thinking of a 195 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: tight end. Yeah, you know this this team doesn't have 196 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: a legitimate tight end. It's got guys, and I'm to 197 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: the point now where you know what, I'm okay, let's 198 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: bring Schultz back and I'm gonna sit Blake Jarwin for 199 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: this game. I'm just gonna keep rotating these guys until 200 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: I figure out my best three because I think I'm 201 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: Swain is solid enough active every week, I think. But yeah, 202 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: the other three yeah yeah, based on matchups, yeah, you know, 203 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: and it's not because Blake Jarwin had a unfortunate experience 204 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: trying to feel a onside kick. I just don't think 205 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: Blake Jarwin has done enough for me. Is a blocker, 206 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: and that's not his cup of tea. It's unfair to 207 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: him for me to say that. But has he done 208 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: anything else in the passing game? Yeah, if his job 209 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: was to do stuff in the passing if he can 210 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: qualify his spot by catching a bunch of balls, and 211 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: then you go, Okay, the blocking, I'll I'll live with 212 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: I'll live with you. And we haven't we haven't seen 213 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: he's seen that. It's Jessica bar theory. I'm gonna roll 214 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna roll him out this week, and I'm gonna 215 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: put Schultz back in there and just see maybe the 216 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: best combination. Well, you know, and you're right, You're not 217 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: gonna roll Swam out of there because they use him 218 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: way too much. He can do. He's more complete than anybody. Yeah. 219 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, if somebody had a legitimate tight end, I 220 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: might if they will get well, maybe some team has 221 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: two guys, you guys, but let me ask you this. 222 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: We have four, and it's kind of a up in 223 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: the air. Would you be looking more for a guy 224 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: that can do Jarwin type stuff down the field as 225 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: a pass catcher, or or a guy that can help 226 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: you in the running game as a blocker. Give me 227 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: a guy, Give me a better James Hannah. Give me 228 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: a better James Hannah can do bow both and play 229 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: special teams too. Yeah, give me you know a guy 230 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: that could be on your punt your punt return team, 231 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: your punt team, kickoff return, all that stuff. But he's 232 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: a he's a good point of attack blocker, and he's 233 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: capable of making you know, two or three plays, you know. 234 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not asking him make seven catches a 235 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: game or six catches a game, but I'm asking him 236 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: make two or three catches a game. And you saw 237 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 1: what they were thinking about the blocker right when they 238 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: went three tight ends brought in Cameron Fleming. Don't worry 239 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: about that as long as he can block. Although I 240 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: think on one of those that was one of the holdings, 241 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: and I was sitting there going it was it was 242 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 1: the Joe lou Alliance, not seventy five yea, not Joel. 243 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 1: The was the third and one play that that oh 244 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: Collins got held on. Collins held see to me that 245 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean tight in was the first 246 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: thing that came to my mind when I wrote that 247 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: question down to you, guys, you feel better about the 248 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: wide receivers. I mean, you got a million of them. 249 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't like seventeen, Mickey. It's up to you, 250 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: being the former newspaperman, to get to the bottom of 251 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: why they got seven wide receivers on this team. I 252 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: will try, because somebody needs to ask that question. I 253 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: just think this is really bad roster management. My point seven. 254 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: They're kicking tires. Okay, seven receivers, four tight ends, and 255 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: they've got two players that don't One of the players 256 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: is Travis Frederick, who doesn't truss who they're keeping on 257 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: the roster. And the other player you're going to get 258 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: back is Jones this week. I mean, he's gonna help you. 259 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: But think about they were carrying all those guys on 260 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: the forty three, on the fifteen, on the fifty three too, 261 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 1: you know, and that I don't know. I have no 262 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: good answer, and you know, here I'm saying, oh, well, 263 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,599 Speaker 1: Williams is going to do this and get suspended and 264 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: all that. I don't know. I'm just throwing it out 265 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: there because like trying to figure out why that's a 266 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: logical speculation. Right, then then you're dat back down to six. Yeah, potentially. 267 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,439 Speaker 1: Obviously that's just pure speculation. It's just for like two games, 268 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: three games, it's just for end games. Yeah, I mak. 269 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 1: I just think they're kicking tires, kicking tires in a 270 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: way because it doesn't cost him anything to bring Vice 271 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: Butler on the on the roster at this point, right, Yeah, 272 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: all it cost him was Tyree Robinson and they're hoping 273 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: to put him back on the practice question. Yeah, and 274 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: then and I don't know how many you can dress 275 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: on Sunday, boy, but you gotta pissed off Lance Lenore 276 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: on your hands too though, Yeah, I understand. See that's 277 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: where better Lenore than Antonio Brown. Yeah. Well things are 278 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: happening in Pittsburgh. Yeah, not good things. Yeah. I was 279 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: gonna ask me the question that you say, frasier over 280 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: your surprise or frasier over Looney, right or you're surprised 281 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: over Yeah, because I think we saw we saw a 282 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: little bit of Looney. I think in training camp. I 283 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: don't know how much we saw of Cavon, like in 284 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: coverage and just being an all around play and I 285 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: and he knows too, because after that first game and 286 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: then everybody was around his locker on WEDNESDA welcome to 287 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: the headache, and and and I saw him walk off 288 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: and I said, I see you, Cavon and he goes, yeah, 289 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: you guys didn't think I could cover it? Could did you? 290 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: Just like that? And I said, okay, yeah, you're good. Okay, yeah, guys, 291 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: just get certain. But here's the other thing now on 292 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: that is I agree with you guys. By the way, 293 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: have they have they played a I mean, is this 294 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: the best quarterback they're going to play in three games? 295 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: I performing it's skill wise from a passing, from the 296 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: from the passing. Yeah, okay. After that Stafford who is struggling, 297 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: he is, we grant it. Watched them next week and 298 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: then Houston struggling, but the Giants this week should get 299 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: back in the w column. There Jacksonville Bortless not been 300 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: bad yet. And then Washington Alex Smith who solid, yeah, solid, 301 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: but they're they're struggling. This team. Then Tennessee, you're setting 302 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: this thing up. Make you like they're going to win 303 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: all these games. I'm talking about what you're saying. Maybe 304 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: you get to Wentz. Finally in Philadelphia. But that's not 305 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: till November eleventh, and then and then you know, you 306 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: get straight and then you get and then you get 307 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: Ryan Yeah, and Alex Smith and Drew Brees and Wentz 308 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: and uh, let's see Whoianapolis. Yeah, Tampa Bay Luck, Fitzma 309 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: might bill to be, Fitzpatrick, Fitzmagic, might be, it might be. 310 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: Remember when we started the seat, before we started the season, 311 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: we kept talking about all these great quarterbacks. They were 312 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: gonna have to pull. They are gonna have to play 313 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: a lot. They're playing one this week. I understand. Now 314 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: the question is can they block for for Russell Wilson. 315 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: To me, it's the same narrative is last week with 316 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: Eli why they struggled the six six sacks allowed in 317 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: both games. The thing about it is, though with Wilson, 318 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: they still were in both games. Yeah, they up twelve 319 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: sacks and they're still in both games. And that's and 320 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: that's what's scary about this team is that you know, 321 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: do you do you think that the Dallas offense can 322 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: score enough points to make somebody one dimensional. That's why 323 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: I said last week against the Giants, you gotta limit 324 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: the big plays because if you're only scoring in the teams. 325 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: All it takes is one or two big plays down 326 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 1: the field to Beckham. Yeah, and we saw what Wilson. 327 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: Now he threw us a pick six in the game. Yeah, 328 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: just a just a bad ball at the sideline. Desperation 329 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: really that he hung in there in the pocket late 330 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 1: in the game and takes a shot and delivers a 331 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: beautiful ball touchdown to Tyler Lockett. He can he can 332 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: beat you with his arms. They'll don't know how he 333 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: cut that ball. Yeah, great play, amazing catch. See to me, 334 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: That's where I'm just like, this is where I worry 335 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 1: about this team. If this team had the consistency of 336 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, with the ability to finish drives and really 337 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: grind it out, if they can make deep offenses that 338 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: they play one dimensional that you have to throw to 339 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: come back, well, that plays right into their wheelhouse. Yeah, 340 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 1: you know, but if they get somebody that can just 341 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 1: hang in there, hang in there, play balance, balance, balance, 342 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: You're right, they give up one big play when you 343 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: know two big plays, Nix, you know, it's a tie game. 344 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: There's no margin for error for the defense when you're 345 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: not efficient offense. Well I was sitting there, yeah, with 346 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 1: that game, and I'm sitting there and it's thirteen nothing right, dominating, 347 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: and all I can think of in the back of 348 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: my mind one mistake and it's thirteen seven and they're 349 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: one possession away from him taking the lead. R Yeah, 350 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: the seventeen point lead helped Dallas. Yes, play this tee 351 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: off on Manning that. I mean, it's like they the 352 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: only thing they had to worry about, Barkley about was 353 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: catching the football and running with it. That's the only 354 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: thing they had to worry about there. But what you 355 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: want to see is more of this. What was it, 356 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: a fourteen play, eighty two yard drive, chewing up eight 357 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: minutes o'clock fourth quarter? Zeke, just wearing guys down. Yes, 358 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 1: gotta have more of that. Yeah, yeah, Well, I mean 359 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: that was timely though, because they did right at the 360 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: end where they just sucked the life out of the 361 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Yeah, that's what you got it. I mean, 362 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 1: because when they gave it up, there's like five minutes left, 363 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: five something, not enough time for the Giants to win 364 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: the game. There were three scores down right, See, they 365 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: can't that. You're right, Rod. The margin of error for 366 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: this team is very small. It when it comes out 367 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: because until they can develop some type of consistency, you know, 368 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a problem. I forgot before we got 369 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: a break. I forgot to ask you this Monday, coming 370 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: off the game, and both of you guys your thoughts 371 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: on because there was a lull there after the ten 372 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: nothing lead. Did they get away from things too much 373 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: that we're working or I know one drive there was 374 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 1: a couple penalties that said them. The penalties were huge. 375 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,719 Speaker 1: They only ran fifty plays, you know, but still a 376 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: lot of that had to do. If they recover the 377 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: on side kick, they could kind of run the game 378 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: out the way they want. But yeah, I and going 379 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: back and watching the game. When Prescott got forced out 380 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 1: a couple of different times throwing the ball, they had 381 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,400 Speaker 1: guys that were open, and again Cole Beasley was opened 382 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: a couple of different times. He couldn't you know. They 383 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: had an opportunity to get the ball to to Rico 384 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 1: there and you know, it was just a little higher 385 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: to him. But they had some plays they had They 386 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: could have made some plays. It's just unfortunate. The quarterback 387 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: had to make the right decision and get rid of 388 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: the football. That was the biggest That was the biggest 389 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: thing that the lull that happened, that's why they got stopped. 390 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: They don't get I mean impressively enough, the two back 391 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: to back penalties third and one, they get a third 392 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: and eleven, what do they get another They complete a 393 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: pass for a first down and they get another holding, 394 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: and you're like, going, there's no way in hell they're 395 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,479 Speaker 1: now third and eleven. They're not going to convert this. Yeah, 396 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: and Prescott stood right in there and made a throw. 397 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just unfortunate. They had some bad luck 398 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: in that way. Nick, I go to break you know, Yeah, 399 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: I think you know. They only had three possessions in 400 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 1: the second half. Yeah, but one really long one and 401 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: one long one a kneel down. I'll count that. That's four, 402 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: and then they scored on the other two. Yeah, so yeah, 403 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: they hit a lull, but they didn't have that many plays. Well, 404 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: they had three straight punts to in the first half. Yeah, 405 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: that part second quarter, that was That's more what I 406 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: was asking. Yeah, that that was, Yeah, you need to 407 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 1: get back to and maybe that's something you do learn from. Okay, well, okay, 408 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: how do we use Zeke? How do we use Austin? 409 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 1: How do we use Thompson, How do we use Beasley? 410 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: How do we use Dak Prescott? You know, those are 411 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: all things you have to think about. Why were we 412 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: not able to sustain drives? It was could I have 413 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: made a different play call that would have affected the 414 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 1: way that the series would have gone. And the second 415 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: possession in the second quarter, they started off first and 416 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: fourteen at the five. Yeah, they got a motion pilling 417 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 1: on tyrants, right, it was, and they and they ended 418 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: up with was it a fair catch at the nine? Yeah, 419 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: they punting. They at least drove the ball out of 420 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: their own end zone and then gave it the first 421 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: and ten at the nine, you get you get a 422 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: false start. Now it's first and fourteen at the five. 423 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: They managed to get to the thirty eight and then 424 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: you have an incompletion, an incompletion and an and a 425 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: pass for no gain and you punt. Yeah, So that 426 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: was the possession that at least they didn't give them. 427 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: At least they didn't go three and out on the five, 428 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: right that that that's encouraged, and they gave the ball 429 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: up and the Giants started at the twenty. Yeah, so 430 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: they were able to get out of there without giving 431 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: up a sc We talked about how they came out 432 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: proactive to start the game, put the giants on their 433 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: heels and got it to nothing lead and they ultimately 434 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 1: was enough.

It was, it was, it will be. 506 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: It will get even more pleasant as the season turns. 507 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: It will, all right. Can we have a little levity here? 508 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: I looked this up and I hadn't used it yet. 509 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: New York Post on Monday after the Giants lost Jugger 510 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: knots O whoa daily news big boom. They don't care. 511 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: They don't care. I think the doubt media's tough. All right, 512 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,479 Speaker 1: uh k, yeah, let's hit the phone lines. Luise in Texas. 513 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: You're up first on Talking Cowboys. Hey, how is it 514 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 1: going guys? Good? Thanks for having me? Um? Yeah, Like, 515 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 1: do you think the loggown we have a receiver's kind 516 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: of like it kind of reminds me of when we 517 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: had you know, DeMarco Murray and shar Choice and that 518 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: underwear Steeler, Like we didn't really know who was gonna 519 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: take the job. Do you think it should just maybe 520 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 1: give a chance to a couple of guys like a 521 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 1: game instead of rotating them in and out, Like I 522 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: think Thompson should get for a shot. I mean, he 523 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: looks pretty good. I think he he got two catches 524 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: called back to a penalty and he still ended up 525 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: with four. So um. And also, do you think they 526 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: trust now Frazier maybe with Wood at the same time 527 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 1: on the field. Um, I'll take your your answers, Hey, 528 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: who would be your who would be your top three receivers? 529 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: If you're gonna say Hearns, Thompson and Gallup not. Um, Yeah, 530 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think he I don't know. Okay, 531 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: maybe the answer I think maybe knows yet maybe any 532 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: of them. Maybe that's the top four at this point. Yeah, 533 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: then that's it leads to me one of my questions, 534 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 1: if you guys want to take one of those, Yes, 535 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,959 Speaker 1: did you expect Deontay Thompson to be better at this 536 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: point than Alan Hearns? Um? No, I didn't. I didn't. 537 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: I expected we didn't see enough of Thompson in preseason. 538 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: I didn't at least to really know kind of what 539 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: he could do for them, what his role might be. Sure, Um, 540 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: we were all kind of man. We remember had this 541 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: discussion about Alan Hearns when we always talk about, Okay, 542 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: who are the five wide receivers? Alan Hearns gets thrown 543 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: in there immediately as one of the guys. And I 544 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: don't know if necessarily Alan Hearns is better than Deontay 545 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: Thompson at least at this point. You know, if you 546 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: looked at Thompson's numbers from last year, yeah, combined sure, 547 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: from the Bears and the Bills. Bills, Yeah, and he 548 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: wasn't playing with Joe Montana suldn't they weren't bad for 549 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,959 Speaker 1: the opportunity he can Nope, not at all. Sanjay Law 550 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 1: told us in camp, I think you were there with me. Well, 551 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: he said, I can't believe he hasn't stuck somewhere because 552 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 1: every chance he's gotten, he got traded to. I think 553 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: was a Chicago right right and stepped in played well 554 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: right off the bat. He's a professional. And what you 555 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: wrote in the mail bag answer today is he's more 556 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: of a complete player. Maybe they thought he is. He's 557 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: you know, you watch him when they run stuff to 558 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: the outside. He's a really good blocker. You know, he's 559 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: got he's got physical, he's got size, he'll go into traffic, 560 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: he'll do some nasty things for you as far as 561 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: going inside to catch balls. And they still haven't sent him. Yeah, 562 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm you know, I thought he was going to be good. 563 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: But I thought that Alan Hurns at this point in 564 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: time would probably have his type of number, more targets 565 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: and more. But but he he has outplayed her in 566 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: my opinion, he has. And for a guy that didn't 567 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: really participate at all in training camp, I think that's 568 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: really impressive about him. You know, and I don't want 569 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: to argue with Luis because Gallup's got to be in there. 570 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: But if you're gonna have three, I think they have 571 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: four at this point. You think they're concerned about Gallup. 572 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: I think they were worried about his consistency of how 573 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: he runs his routes. That's fair, Yeah, that is fair. 574 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: And is that to be a little expected or by now? 575 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: Oh it's at cars State. Though he was a good 576 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: route runner there made the nuances of having a run routes. 577 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: In the National Football League, it always looks like he's 578 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: he's fighting to get open and that's why he draws 579 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: penalties because guys are trying to fight him. But he's 580 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: playing a little bit off balance right now. So I 581 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: think on that deep route, yeah, I think, And you 582 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: know it got pointed out. You know, he got pushed. 583 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: He didn't red line it. Yeah, as they say, yeah, 584 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: there's no red line, but in the practice field, there's 585 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: a red line where you want to stay so many 586 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: yards away from the sideline. So the quarterback has a 587 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: spot to drop it when you've got the dB on 588 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: your left, on your left hip right and he got 589 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: too close to the sideline. I think they were maybe 590 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: a little bit worried about that and catching the ball 591 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: no problem, you know, and when he's open, he's good. Yeah. Um. 592 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, maybe they're slit there looking at that and 593 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: going we need to get him going. Yeah. That's maybe 594 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: one of the reasons why you bring in Bryce Butler, 595 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: you know, because you're thinking, oh, okay, well we need 596 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: a guy to do a little bit more of this. 597 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: I'm not against. I think you have to throw Michael 598 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: Gallop out there and let him play. I do too. 599 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: Don't don't don't sit there. Don't sit there and say, Okay, 600 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: for two weeks or training camp, you've been feeding him stuff, 601 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: feeding him stuff, and then and then have him going 602 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: the tank. You know, if he's not playing enough that 603 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: that you don't need that he's gonna be active. Do 604 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: you think you think Bryce is active Sunday. Well, we 605 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: talked to him yesterday. He didn't know what his role 606 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: would be. He said, look, we haven't had a practice set. 607 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: I don't know, we need we need to. The great 608 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: thing about living in this building is we'll figure it out. Yeah, 609 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: by Friday. By Friday will have this thing. See what 610 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: they think they can get out of it. I mean 611 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: at lease he has been to training camp, yes, but 612 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: he hadn't done anything in a couple of weeks. That's right, 613 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: So he knows the general system though. I'm sure it's 614 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: a little different than last year. But I think more 615 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: from a physical standpoint, yeah, than knowing. I mean, there's 616 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: only so many routes you can run. Right by the way. 617 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: The receiving stats, this is what it is through two games, 618 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: Beasley as your leader, nine catches eighty six yards, then 619 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: Zeke eight for twenty six, then Thompson seven for sixty 620 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: eight point six per catch, and then you've got Swaying 621 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: with three and then four guys with two. Yeah, Tavon, Hearns, 622 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: Terrence and Gallop. That's where you are right now. That's 623 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: where you are. I don't think I mean to answer 624 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: Luise's question to me, it's still too early to know 625 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: what this rotation is, especially yes, there see. But to 626 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: answer th other side of his question, I feel they do. 627 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: I feel like they do feel comfortable about Frasier playing. Yeah, 628 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: they asked you if if Frasier has to go out 629 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: there with Woods and they have to roll him in 630 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: there and take Heath off the field, or anyone those 631 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: guys come off the field. That's we've seen this team 632 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: rotate safeties before. Yeah, they just couldn't do it the 633 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: first two weeks of the season, but they'll rotate him 634 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: now now they got they got their guy back. Frasier's 635 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: earned those snaps absolutely. Yes, Yeah, so too amazing. What 636 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: happens when you play somebody, Yeah, you find out, you 637 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: find out either they can play or another. Got any 638 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: more questions for you know, I do bring it, you know, 639 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: I got some questions. Mickey Spagnola more surprised of his 640 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: play Taco Charlton or Tavon Austin Taco. I expected something 641 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: out of Tavon, uh, because I at least we'd seen 642 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: something from him previously with the Rams before last year. 643 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: But was it like this? But Taco, Yeah, I mean 644 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: the guy the like the like they come back in 645 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: two years before he heard his wrist, he combined for 646 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: ninety catches as and he wasn't like a, that's my 647 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: number one wide receiver. So he had done it before, Taco, 648 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 1: we hadn't seen it. There were times in trainee camp 649 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: where you're going he still can't stay on his feet. Yeah, 650 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: and now he comes out here and played more snaps 651 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 1: in the first two games. He might have played more 652 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,839 Speaker 1: snaps in the first two games than he did his 653 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 1: career year. He got his letter jacket already. Yeah, it's 654 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: pretty He had fifty seven snaps I believe I saw 655 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: from I think he surprised the coaches myself. I mean, 656 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: I think he's done more than just be a pass rusher, right, yeah, Oh, 657 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 1: he he played the run. Yeah, and you're right, he's 658 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: playing about double snaps than he averaged. How about the 659 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: smart play him too? Just falling on that fumble. How 660 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 1: many times we've seen those guys kicked the ball and 661 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden Beckham runs over there and falls 662 00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: on it. You know, my gosh, he did the right thing. 663 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: Eighty seven percent of the of this eighty eighty four percent. 664 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 1: What's that? What's that on your legal pad in front 665 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: of you? Right? Is that Pro Football Focus? Uh No, 666 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: this is official NFL stats, Football Focus, right, official NFL stats. 667 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: I'm surprised with with Taco is as myself. I am too. 668 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: What about rob Um Probably Taco I want. I'm pleasantly 669 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: surprised with how they were able to connect deep with 670 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 1: Dak and table. I mean, that's what this offense needs. Yeah, 671 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: they need that juice. I want to see more from 672 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: Tavon got ten snaps in the week one opener he 673 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,479 Speaker 1: got I think like eighteen last week. Can they bump 674 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 1: it into the twenties maybe? Yeah? Eighteen snaps thirty Yeah, yeah, 675 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: I could read that. Maybe a little more, bump that up. 676 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: But then who's who? I don't know, which, I don't know. 677 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: But the way, just the way he started that game 678 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: though he was on fire, you know, maybe a little 679 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: bit more, a little bit more of ten next question, 680 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 1: it wasn't even a fancy route. He just stutter stepped 681 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: and he came back to the ball though, man, no 682 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: I met the deep stutter stepped. They got a lull 683 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: Jenkins into But that's what speed will do for you. 684 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: Here's my next question for the panel. It's Chris Raschard 685 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: really the defensive coordinator. I think he's had a significant 686 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: influence on the amount of aggressiveness, especially on the Nickel defense. Yeah, 687 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 1: he is the passing game coordinator, so does that every 688 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: time him? Every time they passed, they Chris called the defense. 689 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe they're not telling us, well, I'm 690 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: sure it's on Nickel. Yeah, I don't know that he 691 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: calls it, but I think he maybe they with the 692 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 1: that's what the plan is. It is. Do you think 693 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: when they go to the sidelines and they talk about it, 694 00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 1: it's Chris. I mean, we have the sideline audio, we 695 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: put that together, and Chris is always coaching somebody. Yeah, 696 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: he's coach. He's grabbing somebody and coaching somebody here. And 697 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: by the way, I think he plays a big role 698 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: in what happens this week with the with the Seahawks 699 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: knowing what how to attack that, but also give you 700 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of idea about what they can do 701 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: defensively as well. Right, you know that's going to help. 702 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: There's another mail back question today, that is, but your 703 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: question will be answered when there's three guys on Thursday 704 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: taking questions. We should get, we should ask, we should ask. 705 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 1: He's a coordinator, we should ask, we should we should 706 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: ask for him pass game coordinator. Rod. I think he's 707 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,879 Speaker 1: calling the defense. I think I'm with Mickey. I think 708 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 1: I'm proud of you for not riding the fence. By 709 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 1: the way, Spagnola didn't ride the fence on that one. 710 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:42,839 Speaker 1: That was a good one. I think Coach Marinelli thinks 711 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: a lot of this young coach, and I think he 712 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: is giving him some influence and I think he wants 713 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 1: him to have a true voice in what they're doing. 714 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,439 Speaker 1: So yes, what was your answer? Oh, I would say 715 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: he is everything or just I think that he's I 716 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: think what I think Rod. I think Rod really likes 717 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: dealing with that front, you know, the hot boys. He 718 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 1: likes being up. I mean, he likes he could focus 719 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 1: more on his rush if Rochard is called in. Rochard 720 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: is Rod's done this for a long long time. I 721 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 1: mean when they were doing the slot blitz stuff, you know, 722 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: and all that, that's Rod. But you start bringing linebackers 723 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: and you know, all kinds of that, that's a little 724 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: bit different from what we've seen in the past. We 725 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: saw that in training camp. They oh, I know, but 726 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: that's like christ and the linebackers, Chris Schard wearing cleats 727 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: coaching them up out there. Right, You got some more 728 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: I do all right, Hang tight, We'll get to the 729 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: rest of those.

Here's what I got, boys. 794 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: I listened all the time. First time caller. I'm not 795 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: going to ask how you're doing. I'm not gonna thank 796 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: you for taking my call. I am the most pessimistic 797 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: of all pessimistic Cowboys fans. This past Sunday night, I 798 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 1: looked at my wife and I said, damn, I have 799 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,319 Speaker 1: no idea why I continue to put myself through this. 800 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 1: But I was encouraged because I saw progress. After week one. 801 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: I was down and I gave him a chance in 802 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: week two, but I did see progress and the piggyback. 803 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 1: I was on hold what Brian said about Richards. I 804 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 1: was watching sounds of the game on your website, Sure, 805 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: and Cavan came off the field and he was beating 806 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: himself up, saying I need to tackle better, need to 807 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: tackle better. And then Richard comes in and says, listen, 808 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 1: you gotta forgive yourself. You're a great tackler. And then 809 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 1: the next clips of him making the sack. Right, I'm 810 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: all for Shard being our next head coach. And who 811 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,760 Speaker 1: knows what they have in the plan. Sure, the guys, 812 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 1: I don't think our offense or our defense has hit 813 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: their ceiling, and I don't think we need to be 814 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 1: the greatest show on turf. I am so encouraged about defense. 815 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: It's amazing. I'm just I'm overwhelmed with our defense and 816 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 1: i'd love your thoughts. Thank you, guys. Okay, that's pretty 817 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: good from a pessimist. I think you had to be 818 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 1: by the second game. I think he's being realistic though, 819 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 1: and you know, I said it last night. If the 820 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: defense can continue to play the way they're playing and 821 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: give the offense time to develop, then they might have something. 822 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 1: But they've got to play well defensively so the offense 823 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: can can continue to take their steps forward. They've got 824 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 1: to have the offense to help them. Though. Yeah, I 825 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 1: know you're right. I mean, I just the thing I 826 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 1: worry about, can this offense score enough points? And if 827 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 1: you could score enough points, you know they're going to 828 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 1: be in some games where they probably won't be able 829 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: to score some points. But I think that you know, 830 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 1: if you're gonna hang the hat on the defense and 831 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 1: they look like they can, they can take it. But 832 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: I just don't want this offense to ruin some bad 833 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 1: some good play by a defense. Nicky. You said this 834 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: again on the Happy Hour Show last night, and it's 835 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 1: a great point. I mean, there are so many new faces, yeah, 836 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 1: on offense, and there's young guys, and there's guys that 837 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: had injuries in preseason, so they do need time. But 838 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,959 Speaker 1: how much time can you have when, like Brian always says, 839 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 1: I mean, these games all matter, they all count. I 840 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,399 Speaker 1: mean you got to give it maybe a month. Well, 841 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: that's why the defense has to play well. Yeah, yeah, 842 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 1: it can't be given up twenty some points a game. No, 843 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: because the offense probably can't score twenty some points at 844 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,879 Speaker 1: least right now. At least right now now, maybe things 845 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: will change, you know, maybe they get they get development 846 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,759 Speaker 1: from Connor Williams, you get development from Michael Gallup. All 847 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 1: of a sudden they figure out, hey, you can get 848 00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: the ball to Tavon Austin ten times a game. You know, 849 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:02,919 Speaker 1: all these things have to kind of play out. I think, 850 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: you know, but I know that I know. Dez is 851 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:12,800 Speaker 1: not there, right, Okay, I get it. They made that decision. 852 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:18,719 Speaker 1: They did Witton, okay, retire, yes, But the rest of 853 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: the offense, Travis Fredericks the only one missing. And the 854 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:28,760 Speaker 1: first eight games last year, the offense was scoring. Problem 855 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,359 Speaker 1: was yeah, it was Jonathan Cooper like all pro. No, 856 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,439 Speaker 1: he was just and at that time the first couple 857 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:39,320 Speaker 1: of games, Chaz Green was starting at guard. By god, 858 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,839 Speaker 1: but they are working in four new wide receivers, three 859 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 1: two new tight ends essentially, I understand. But if he 860 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,319 Speaker 1: didn't looking for a reason, if if if you didn't 861 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: want to work in new receivers, you could have Terrence 862 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,399 Speaker 1: Williams and Cole Beasley out there and then one new guy. Right, 863 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:59,280 Speaker 1: So I'm they scored. They scored those first state games. 864 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: The only game didn't score the opener because the Giants 865 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: they seemed to have trouble scoring against him and Denver 866 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: and everything else. And I said this the other day, 867 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: and you know, it's like Dak put this team on 868 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 1: his back. He did first eight games, he did. We 869 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,839 Speaker 1: said that, you said last night at the show last night. 870 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:19,959 Speaker 1: The guy that the gentleman who asked the question didn't 871 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,399 Speaker 1: agree with us, I know, but he did go back 872 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 1: and look at his stats. He had a hundred over 873 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: one hundred quarterback rate and there was too much on 874 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,720 Speaker 1: his plate. My opinion the second half of the season, 875 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 1: of course, you know, you know, and all and all 876 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the narrative is he's not accurate. Well, 877 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,839 Speaker 1: the first twenty four games of his career he had 878 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: over sixty percent completion. It was like sixty four with 879 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:46,879 Speaker 1: a one h two quarterback rad. I think he threw 880 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,239 Speaker 1: the ball better last week. And he did, Caroline, he did. 881 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 1: That's I mean, that's absolutely don't need some scout to 882 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 1: tell you that. And he wasn't on his back. Yeah, 883 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 1: that's true too. So you know, I just give it 884 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:03,319 Speaker 1: some time for these new receivers and the quarterback and 885 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 1: you know, and I don't want to say Joe Looney 886 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:12,240 Speaker 1: because he's been good. Yeah, you know, not great, but good. Yeah. 887 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: And Connor Williams was better the second game. Did he 888 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,880 Speaker 1: take the next step? And the fourth no doubt. You know, 889 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,439 Speaker 1: this was a young team. We spent all summer talking 890 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 1: about it being a young team, and then when you 891 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 1: go play, it's like, well that's not an excuse. Well, okay, 892 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: I get it, but you just gotta make progress. And 893 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: I think that's what everybody's got to hang on to. 894 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 1: Progress might also mean you lose a game or and 895 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 1: that's right exactly, and this and this will be a 896 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 1: heck of a test. I think when you factor in 897 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 1: the crowd up there desperation, that defense is gonna bring it. Man, 898 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,279 Speaker 1: they always do, so they're gonna be challenging this. I mean, 899 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 1: did you see how they respond. Did you think this 900 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: team was going twelve and four? Yeah? Right, Yeah, they're 901 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 1: just a couple of games. I thought they were gonna lose. 902 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,240 Speaker 1: They might actually win if you look at that Houston bunch, 903 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 1: if they don't get things turned around down there Detroit. 904 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,880 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody expected these next three opponents to 905 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 1: b O and two. No, not nobody did. I wish 906 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 1: I could feel better about Blank on this team. I 907 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 1: wish I could feel better about Blank on this team. 908 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,319 Speaker 1: It didn't have to be a player, or I wish 909 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 1: I could feel better about Blank. I think you just 910 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,240 Speaker 1: said it. I think we just talked. Probably we probably 911 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 1: just answered that question. It's for me, It's it's I 912 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,320 Speaker 1: feel really given him time, feel really good about this defense. 913 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 1: And I think if you can get Randy Gregory and 914 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,640 Speaker 1: David Irving back in two weeks, Wow, there's there's a 915 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: lot of potential there. I would like to feel better 916 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,360 Speaker 1: about their Jones played pretty good this summer. I mean, 917 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 1: I'm getting back in there yet. I would like to 918 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 1: feel better about their ability to sustain drives offensively there. 919 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 1: I just we just haven't seen it with consistency yet. 920 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:49,080 Speaker 1: We talked about the lull they had after the ten 921 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 1: points early against the Giants. I'd like to feel better 922 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 1: about the offensive line, like in that dominant form that 923 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 1: we're used to seeing. Yeah, yeah, I mean that it's 924 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 1: Collins has had some struggles, There's no question, Mickey, it's 925 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 1: a good point he has. He has some struggles. And 926 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,680 Speaker 1: you know, and that was just the first game, Tyrn 927 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 1: Smith with the penalties, right, Um, but you know, if 928 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 1: if Lale not playing at a high level, then all 929 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 1: you got is Tyring and in Martin. Yeah. So there 930 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:29,240 Speaker 1: you're you're you're I mean air quotes, folks, they're listening, 931 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 1: not seeing. But there's your elite line is not so elite. 932 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:37,600 Speaker 1: You've got your your It's nice to have two really 933 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 1: good players, but everybody else, if everybody else is struggling, 934 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 1: where's your line? Are you just as good as You're 935 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,800 Speaker 1: just as good as the Vikings or the Saints or 936 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 1: I mean it isn't that the formula here offense to 937 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:53,319 Speaker 1: have an elite line. Yeah. No sacks, no sacks last week? 938 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 1: That great, right, But half is in completions were throwaways 939 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 1: because of pressure. Right, It's like, oh, I gotta get 940 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 1: rid of this out of my hand. And that's great 941 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 1: because um sacks are probably sacks kill you, right, because 942 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:12,239 Speaker 1: even even when you get even when you get a 943 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 1: holding and they should get the down over, right, the 944 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 1: sack you don't get the down over It killed Seattle 945 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 1: on Monday. If you went back and watch that game 946 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 1: means terrible. Yeah. I always I always look back to 947 00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 1: uh when when the Cowboys at the near the end 948 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: of the season in ninety one went to Philadelphia. No, no, 949 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman, Right, he gets hurt. Uh. And And basically 950 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:40,279 Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson's mandate to Burline was, I don't care if 951 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:44,440 Speaker 1: you finished the first half three for thirteen. I don't care, 952 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,919 Speaker 1: uh if you finished the game ten for twenty five. 953 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: I do not want you to take a sack, right, 954 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:56,760 Speaker 1: No sacks and no interceptions, because once that Philadelphia defense 955 00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 1: gets a sack, it starts rolling. The people will start 956 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 1: going crazy at the vet and everything comes apart. No sacks, 957 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:06,919 Speaker 1: and I swear to God, the first half he must 958 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,920 Speaker 1: have finished like three of thirteen. Yeah, but they were 959 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 1: in the game because he didn't take a sack. So 960 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: protect the quarterback and give the running back at least 961 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 1: get him back to the line of scrimmage and then 962 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,799 Speaker 1: let him do his deal. I mean the touchdown run. 963 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:27,160 Speaker 1: Yeah right, it wasn't clean, it was a push, right, 964 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 1: but he got to the line of scrimmage, and then 965 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: he did his deal. He did his deal. I answered 966 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 1: my own question with I wish I could feel better 967 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:36,920 Speaker 1: about the consistency of the offense. Yeah, I wish I 968 00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:39,399 Speaker 1: could feel better that I know that they could stay 969 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: ahead of the chains, not give up sacks, and when 970 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 1: they had to make a real play they could make it. 971 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 1: That that's what I wish I could feel better about. 972 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 1: I feel great about the defense and what they've done, 973 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:51,959 Speaker 1: at least through the first two weeks. I do worry 974 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,920 Speaker 1: about the offensive consistency hurting the defense at the end 975 00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:57,320 Speaker 1: of the day. That's where I that's the struggle I 976 00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 1: deal with every day. Okay, final question here, as we 977 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:04,359 Speaker 1: have a little time left, is Byron Jones playing better 978 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 1: than a cheetahbe Owoozier. At this point, we did our 979 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:14,760 Speaker 1: top ten lists m Monday of best performers in the game. Yeah, 980 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,920 Speaker 1: I had both of the ten. Yeah, just to the 981 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:18,879 Speaker 1: first two weeks. Though we kind of felt like, though 982 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: didn't it A Woozier was going to be the corner, 983 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,839 Speaker 1: that would be the guy that we kind of hang 984 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 1: our hat on. But we were able now to kind 985 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,879 Speaker 1: of hang our hat on Byron Jones a little bit. Yeah. Yeah, 986 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 1: we're seeing him making plays on the ball. I think 987 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:37,359 Speaker 1: Byron has been tested more right and and we've seen 988 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 1: him make some play right O. Woozier doesn't get tested 989 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:44,680 Speaker 1: all that much, fair point, and you know there's a 990 00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 1: you know you're not going to throw a shot out 991 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:48,760 Speaker 1: over there. The ones he gets beat on are usually 992 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 1: the crossing route over the middle when the guy has 993 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 1: all day to run right, but from on his sideline. 994 00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 1: I think he's been pretty darn good. But I think 995 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 1: they've test did Byron Jones more. Yeah, he stood up 996 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:05,359 Speaker 1: to it. Yeah, he stood up to it so far. 997 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 1: I think. Um. I think the fact that both of 998 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: them are playing well, and you may have spoken to this, 999 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 1: it allows you to be more aggressive with your front seven. 1000 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: And regardless of it's Chris Richard's influence or Rod, dialing 1001 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,720 Speaker 1: up more blitzes is kind of out of his quote 1002 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,319 Speaker 1: unquote reputation. And when you have your corners playing well 1003 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 1: on the outside, why not, especially if you're playing with 1004 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 1: the lead. And that's another thing again, Offensively get your 1005 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,880 Speaker 1: defensive lead and allow those guys to tee off a 1006 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: little bit. You know, you'll do it even more so 1007 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 1: once you get a couple of these pass rushers back. 1008 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 1: The other thing I like back there is if they 1009 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 1: get beat on a pass play, I don't let see 1010 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 1: anybody going yeah looking around, yeah, like it wasn't my fault. Yeah, 1011 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 1: well they did. Did the tight end did get him 1012 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 1: on that one time where they were kind of looking 1013 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: at each other like, okay, what just happened here? Yeah, 1014 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 1: you know it was a busted cover was a busted 1015 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: but no one looked at any Yeah, everybody went chasing 1016 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 1: them and as like doc on it, we didn't you know. 1017 00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:01,920 Speaker 1: But are you surprised this team hasn't tackled as well? 1018 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 1: I mean they I mean initial tackle, Mickey, I'm yeah, 1019 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,600 Speaker 1: I'm saying rally tackle. I'm saying initial. You know what, 1020 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:11,440 Speaker 1: Jeff Heath could have got a minus three instead. It 1021 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 1: was a nine yard game kind of a tackle. I 1022 00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 1: think they've been so aggressive, almost too aggressive, and they're 1023 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 1: flying to try to make a tackle without kind of 1024 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,839 Speaker 1: breaking down and and taking a bad angle. Sometimes one 1025 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 1: thing that's encouraging is the next guy gets Yeah. Yeah, 1026 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:31,359 Speaker 1: there's still other guys running to the ball. A lot 1027 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,520 Speaker 1: of hats to it. You're not getting a seventy yard game. 1028 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 1: It's it's five six yards, like you're said, more than 1029 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 1: it should be. But it's not a it's not a touchdown. 1030 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 1: So that's good. You got good guys flying around like 1031 00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: it was was it was it the Chargers game. Oh god, right, 1032 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:49,759 Speaker 1: that I lost I lost my mind. Well that's when 1033 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:51,719 Speaker 1: they made the change. It made the change in the 1034 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:55,439 Speaker 1: secondary at that point. Yeah, they said, okay, Orlando you sit, 1035 00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 1: and okay Brown you sit, and you know we're gonna 1036 00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:00,920 Speaker 1: change some things up here, you know, and that I 1037 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 1: think I look at that point as Okay, now the young, 1038 00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:06,399 Speaker 1: the young guys are going to get to play here. 1039 00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:08,760 Speaker 1: The young, the young secondary is gonna get to play 1040 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 1: because the veteran guys just didn't get the job. Done 1041 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: at that point, not Jordan Lewis yet. But Anthony Brown 1042 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:17,799 Speaker 1: done a nice job. And Anthony Brown has not done 1043 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,800 Speaker 1: anything to lose his job. I mean, I mean, I 1044 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,239 Speaker 1: I don't see anything. Am I wrong about that? I 1045 00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 1: mean everybody's been kind of waiting for that. I always 1046 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 1: say the left turn off the road, the the you know, 1047 00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:33,280 Speaker 1: the human log as uh Nate likes to call Woods 1048 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:35,239 Speaker 1: waiting for that left turn and he's off, you know. 1049 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:39,200 Speaker 1: But I don't see anything with with with Brown, and 1050 00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: I just hope he doesn't get those penalties. You know, 1051 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 1: these key situations where all of a sudden he's covering 1052 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 1: locket and they're getting off the field and pressed around. 1053 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,800 Speaker 1: Wilson overthrows, Oh we have a flag or defensive holding. 1054 00:55:50,440 --> 00:55:52,960 Speaker 1: You don't need that, and he's avoided that, you know, 1055 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 1: knock on Wood. He just he just wasn't a very 1056 00:55:56,719 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 1: good scout, that's all. Yeah. Oh about Perdue? Oh sorry man, 1057 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 1: that's the only thing he did wrong. Sorry about this 1058 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:04,839 Speaker 1: last minute cast. Make you a question, But yeah, let's 1059 00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 1: I was gonna says, how's Duely doing calling plays? You 1060 00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 1: know what? Are they scoring a lot of points? This guy, 1061 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,399 Speaker 1: he's got a quarterback there that could be the first 1062 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:17,400 Speaker 1: one taken and steard. They've scored forty and what was 1063 00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 1: the first game, Well, Tennessee Martin. They should have scored forty. 1064 00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:23,880 Speaker 1: How much have they given up too many? It can 1065 00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,800 Speaker 1: give up too many against Perdue. That's a problem. Thirty 1066 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:30,759 Speaker 1: seven need to be to DC two. Yeah, you know 1067 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 1: what he's done. He's done a good You know what 1068 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:36,920 Speaker 1: I like about what he's done is they're not playing 1069 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 1: at this breakneck pace and going three and out, you know, 1070 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 1: like you have the ball for thirty five seconds and 1071 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 1: not necessarily huddling. There's pace, but it's not like, you know, 1072 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 1: we're hair on fire and he's running the football. Even 1073 00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 1: when it doesn't work, he continues to run the football. 1074 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: He uses his tight ends. Uh and uh. I thought 1075 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 1: the play calling has been, you know, better than what 1076 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 1: everybody expected. Everybody was worried. I was worried about that too. 1077 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,839 Speaker 1: The Boo Birds and Saint Louis were all over him 1078 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 1: before he called his first play, Go Tigers, So tigers.
