9
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: slate of Cowboys Talk, Ladies. I have had a hard

10
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 1: time these last couple of days because Sunday's game just

11
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: hasn't sat right with me. Having to sit through that

12
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: was pretty miserable. I'm not gonna lie. It's miserable on

13
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: a lot of fronts, and we'll get into that obviously.

14
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: I just want to read off a couple of stats

15
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: to get us started in this one. The Cowboys offense

16
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: on one hundred and twenty eight passing yards, sixty four

17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: rushing yards, just ten first downs. They were four of

18
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: eight on third down. They averaged just two point eight

19
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 1: yards of game six penalties for seventy four yards, two turnovers,

20
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: just one touchdown, and ladies, they were out possessed twenty

21
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: three minutes and forty eight seconds to thirty six minutes

22
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: and twelve seconds. Dak Prescott playing the worst game of

23
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: his career, and it's not it is close, but it

24
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: was the worst game of his career fourteen of thirty seven,

25
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: pick number fifteen in just twelve games. And something that

26
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,479
Speaker 1: I found interesting in this one. As I was doing

27
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: flashback on Monday, I went back and looked at Dak's

28
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: game against Tampa Bay in game one of the season

29
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: this year, nearly identical stat line. He was fourteen of

30
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: twenty nine for one hundred and thirty four yards in

31
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: an interception in that one. That being said, I'm glad

32
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: we got that out of our system, but I will

33
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: open up the table with this, what is your biggest

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: concern from Sunday's game. I think for me, it's the

35
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: offensive scheme, and not necessarily. I don't think that falls

36
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: on Dak. I don't think that falls on anybody other

37
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: than you know, is this play calling really working for

38
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: the offense? Are we playing up the strengths or are

39
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: we just kind of knocking the confidence of the team.

40
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: That's what worries me is I don't want this this

41
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: win or this win, Oh my goodness, this loss. I

42
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: wish it was a win. Would we have to talk

43
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: about this. I don't want this loss to propel them

44
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: back in the confidence that they took a while to

45
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: rebuild when Dak did return, because that took a while

46
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: to return after Cooper Rush. So I just I'm concerned

47
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: about the play calling. I'm concerned about the strengths of

48
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: that offense not being utilized. Where was the run game,

49
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: Where is the tight end versatility that we've seen work

50
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: for this offense. Where is the unpredictable aspect of this offense.

51
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: There's a lot of questions I have about the offensive

52
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: scheme right now, and it's frustrating because there's moments within

53
00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: the season where you see things work and then you'd

54
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: never see him again. So it's just it felt like

55
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: everybody was confused. It felt like no one was on

56
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: the same page, and that worries me. But I also

57
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: know this team is resilient and they have they are

58
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: more than capable of coming back from that. For me,

59
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: it's the yeah, she's my plan over it um. For me,

60
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: it's the offensive line, and for me, it's the run blocking.

61
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: And this last what a couple of weeks. Obviously, TP

62
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: returned from injury last week, and we saw it he

63
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: wasn't involved a whole bunch soul. And with this game,

64
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: I felt like the pass pro was there at times,

65
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: but the consistent, the consistent factor even in the Bucks

66
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: game that couldn't run the ball. And when this team

67
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: cannot run the ball effectively, you can see that it

68
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: spreads out through the whole offense. It puts a lot

69
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: of pressure on the quarterback, It puts a lot of

70
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: pressure on the passing game as in itself. And it

71
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 1: also made defenses, you know, be able to just drop

72
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: six and coverage and rush four and go about their business.

73
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: So you went against the Commanders one of the best,

74
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: well the best defense on third down I showed. I mean,

75
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: I know we're talking about how poorly the Cowboys played,

76
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: but let's let's remember like they had some they have

77
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: a pretty good defense over there as well. But for me,

78
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: is getting the cohesiveness of this offensive line back together

79
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: and being able to run block at an efficient rate

80
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: and do it well moving forward is going to be

81
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: so important to this offense. Yeah, let's talk about the

82
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: offensive line for a little bit, because I want to

83
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: raise my hand up. I was the one last week

84
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: that said this offensive line doesn't scare me, you know,

85
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: like they all they got it. They got Hall of

86
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: famers left and right. Boy was I wrong on Sunday.

87
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: And it just goes to show you how one small impact,

88
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: that being Tyler Beodest, one small move, one small change,

89
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: affects everything. To your point, I think the run game

90
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: was missing because there was no run blocking. There was

91
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: no there was no there's nothing blocking period. I think

92
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: what stands out to me the most about the offensive

93
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: line in this game is you saw it from the

94
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 1: opening possession for Dak Prescott. The opening snap he took,

95
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: he was immediately being pressured and it was almost like

96
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: this tap dance that he was doing in the back

97
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: because he didn't know, like should I stay in the pocket.

98
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: Do I have time to stay in the pocket. I

99
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: don't have time to stay in the pocket. Do I

100
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: roll right? Do I roll? Oh my gosh, like he

101
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: throw it away and then it was just from the

102
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: very beginning, it was so out of sorts and just

103
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: to give you, guys, some contacts for this. Connor McGovern

104
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: was in at center for Tyler Botts. Tyler Smith was

105
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 1: moved to left guard. Jason Peters played left tackle for

106
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: the whole game, and I think that's important to note.

107
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 1: I think that was his first full game that he

108
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: had played at all. Zack Martin was at right guard,

109
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: of course, and then Tyron Smith over at right tackle,

110
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: and this is kind of the point of the season

111
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: where you kind of start to see those cracks show.

112
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of what just ultimately set Sunday's

113
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: game into a tailspin. Yeah, Tyron Smith, I think struggling

114
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: a little bit, just trying to stay in the room

115
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: of them, trying to forget what he's learned at left

116
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: tackle and translate that over to the right side. But

117
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,799
Speaker 1: the positives in this is that Mike McCarthy Jerry Jones

118
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: are both very confident that you're going to get your

119
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: starting center back in Tyler Beottish. And I also said

120
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: this last week, and we'll get into Layton Vanderdash later

121
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: in the show, but you never know what you have

122
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: until it's gone. And I think when you want to

123
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: talk about being resilient and I think faithful is another

124
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: good word for this team. You get Tyler Beiottish back.

125
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: This is a guy who's going to allow you to

126
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: get that run blocking back. He's going to allow the

127
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: communication on that line pre snap, which I think is

128
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: going to be very important. You allow that to get

129
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: back and just the comfortability for Dak Prescott back there.

130
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: You get your center, you get everything back in line,

131
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: and then you can kind of adjust the offensive line

132
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: is needed. But just from you guys, Tyler Beotish, how

133
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: much of an impact is he going to be on Sunday? Well,

134
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: listening to Mike McCarthy yesterday, just say that, you know

135
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,239
Speaker 1: he had a good day yesterday. Still very encouraging because

136
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 1: I didn't know how much I'm still learning, so I

137
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: didn't know how much center had a role in just

138
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: the overall efficiency of even the checks, calling out stuff

139
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: just and even just the spike in the ball. I mean,

140
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: it's just so important for a quarterback to get in

141
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: that rhythm and be able to get into their drops comfortably.

142
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: He made a fantastic point talking about how Dak never

143
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: seemed comfortable. There were opportunities where he had he had

144
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: the opportunity to check down to the tight ends in

145
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: the middle of the field and stuff, and he just

146
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: didn't take it. It was his clock was very sped up,

147
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: and that's something that we haven't seen from him in

148
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: a while. So I, to your point, really think that

149
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: it just kind of helped helps re establish a lot

150
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: of order on that offensive line and just to get

151
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: him back comfortable knowing who can hold serve at will

152
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: point in time. So I think it's important for him

153
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: to get back in here and for things to get rolling,

154
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: because I don't know if you're going to be able

155
00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: to run the ball effectively without that center, because show

156
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: it wasn't working. I think something, and y'all are gonna

157
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: take your shot. Something I always talk about is the

158
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: mental focus, and that usually slips in the way of penalties, right,

159
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: But in this case, without your center, without that key

160
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: communication that everybody was working with and they were used to,

161
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: it showed it helped contribute to the confusion. It helped

162
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: contribute to the miscues and the miscommunication. So for me,

163
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: getting Tyler Beotis back means you get your communication back

164
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: and you get what was working right back. So you know,

165
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: not to say that it can't work. How what we

166
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: saw it can work. But I think with Tyler Beotis,

167
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: he brings an element of communication that just is needed.

168
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: It is needed for every single person, and it's a

169
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: domino effect. That OH line is a domino effect of

170
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: what you see. Because again dak was rushing dak was

171
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: he looked panicked. I mean, dak Is said, I always

172
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: probably dak On being a guy that he does roll

173
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: things off his back, and you see it in his face.

174
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: It was just a look of panic that was so

175
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: unsettling for me to even just watch. I can't imagine

176
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: being the guys in the O line or the tight

177
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: ends or the receivers or anybody that had to be there.

178
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: And that comes from the OH line. So again, Tyler

179
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 1: be honest to me, means communication is back. Like you said, Asia,

180
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: order is restored in the O line, and they need

181
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: it bad. They need a bad and more power and

182
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: a little bit more power like McGovern really had trouble

183
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: at this game just with the overall power from that interior.

184
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: And then obviously you had Tyler slide to left guard

185
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 1: and he in fairness, let's be fair here, he's been

186
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: playing left tackle almost all season. Like it's the bouncing

187
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: back and forth he's a it's naturally, it's natural he's

188
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 1: gonna sometimes have instances where his hands aren't right and stuff,

189
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: because that is just hard to tap it into. I'm sure.

190
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: So just getting guys kind of back where they're supposed

191
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: to be, I think will help, will help the overall offense.

192
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: And we've given them so much credit for being so

193
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: versatile on that O line and having the ability to

194
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: be versatile and you know, be able to have that

195
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: muscle memory kind of reversed on the drop of the dime.

196
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: But at some point you just don't need that anymore.

197
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: You need consistency, you need stability, and it's great that

198
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: you can do it if you have to, but it

199
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: also it almost feels like it's become a thing where

200
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: these guys are so on their toes. It doesn't feel

201
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 1: like there's a sense of stability for them to where

202
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, am I gonna be in love guard?

203
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: Am I gonna be a right guard? What are we doing?

204
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: What are we doing? What are we doing? Put your

205
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: feet on the ground, stay where you're at, focus on

206
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: the best position for these guys, and move forward. Because

207
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: it's just there's too much going on. Yeah, I loved

208
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: last week. I think it was Connor McGovern who was

209
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: asked about this last week when it came to you know,

210
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: as far as like how often do you take reps

211
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: at another position? Or maybe it was be honest, but

212
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: one of them it was McGovern Okay, yeah, and they

213
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: were just talking about you know, like oh like fIF

214
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: ten to fifteen reps just to make sure you you know,

215
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 1: have that fresh muscle memory as you point it out.

216
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 1: So I find that to be interesting the positive here.

217
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: As well as you get Tyler Beyodish back, you also

218
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: get a Matt Farniac going into the second week of

219
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: his twenty one day window and going back to your

220
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: point of the stability, I think that really gives that cushion.

221
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: You know, you get him in as your backup, you

222
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 1: have a little bit more flexibility because I think the

223
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: issue is not necessarily that you're you're rotating the line right,

224
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: Like you don't want to rotate the line if you

225
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: don't have to, but it's out of necessity. But if

226
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: you're going to do it, you want to have the

227
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: correct pieces to do it right. And I think when

228
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: you have Matt Farniac in there, even if he doesn't

229
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: ever see the field, you at least have that you

230
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: know good backing to know that, Okay, this isn't working,

231
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: Let's change it up, and let's change it up in

232
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: a way that we feel comfortable that we've seen doing so.

233
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: Matt Farniac making his return as well. My last question

234
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 1: for your ladies before we take break on that offensive line,

235
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: who do you want starting where? What? I know we

236
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: haven't seen practice. Yeah, I hate when your eyes get

237
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: big like that because you freak me out when you

238
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: do that. But what is your ideal offensive line when

239
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: you're facing a guy like Tom Brady who obviously isn't

240
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: in his prime the way he used to be, but

241
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,599
Speaker 1: he can still make things happen, and you've got to

242
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: be able to on your side of the offensive ball

243
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: be able to combat that. At this point, the ideal

244
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: offensive line to me, is going to be the one

245
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: that you kind of we're starting with. I know that

246
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: as far as like Tyler at left tackle, McGovern at

247
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: left guard, beatish Back at center, Zach Martin there right guard,

248
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: and then Tying as your right tackle. Granted, like we've

249
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 1: talked about Tyring, there's some issues definitely in the run game,

250
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 1: and I think that's just because his feet, Like he's like,

251
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 1: what don't I do with my feet? You know? The

252
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: guy it's one also too. You know, Michaelcarthy talked about

253
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: how different it is for him, but just that group

254
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: did show signs of being able to run the ball

255
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: at certain points in different this group right here and

256
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: it's nothing, no signs of being able to run the ball.

257
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: So at least you get back to it, like you said,

258
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: some stability and guys kind of know where they're supposed

259
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: to be. You can bring that, you can bring, you

260
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: have the tight ends you mentioned them, bring somebody over

261
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: to help out, you know sometimes if you need it.

262
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: But that's how that's the offensive line I would go with.

263
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: It's kind of like you only best option at this

264
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: point right live on what elseig, No, that's the lineup

265
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: I'm going with if I have the choice. The thing

266
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: about Tyron Smith is I have so much faith in

267
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 1: this guy, and you know, I think it goes for

268
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: every single person on this team. Like, yeah, we know

269
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: he switched sides of the line and all of that,

270
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: but everybody needs to fill their best and nobody played

271
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: their best. So again, this is it's more of a

272
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 1: confidence thing for anybody at this point. But yeah, that's

273
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: the lineup I go with. That's the lineup that was working.

274
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: If it wasn't broke, don't fix it. You get your

275
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: guys coming back, put them back where they belong, and

276
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: move on from the horrendous, horrendous game that was Sunday

277
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: on the Plus sight though Jason Peters he played a

278
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 1: lot of snaps. Kirsty mentioned it on Monday, She's like,

279
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: why has he playing so much? When I actually went

280
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 1: back and watched him, We've been having this whole thing

281
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: like can you play a full game? Are you sure? Darlike?

282
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: And he played well, he didn't know he especially in

283
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: pass pro on that left side. So at least you

284
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: know that he can be that guy that can come

285
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: in sometimes on the left tackles because that's the premier position.

286
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: You know, Tyler's going to be dealing with a lot

287
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: of the best best dans in the game. Maybe you

288
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: can roll Jason Peters out there a couple plays if

289
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: Tyler's having trouble therel if you need a big play,

290
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: you like, I gotta have it. You know that he

291
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: can play for extended snaps if you need that. And

292
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: I think That's was good to see from him in

293
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: this game moving forward, and that's the versatility you want

294
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: because it benefits you. Pendrop, Yeah, I think that's the

295
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: I think that that's the goal of what Jason Peters

296
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: was brought here for, you know, just to come in

297
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: you shore up that offensive line with a big body,

298
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: a guy with a lot of experience. But I mean, like,

299
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: I'm pushing thirty and I'm struggling igine, you know how

300
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: he's feeling at crossing that forty threshold. A lot of

301
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: interesting things to see. Practice will resume tomorrow, so obviously

302
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: we'll get the opportunity to check out how they're practicing.

303
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: We did hear good news about Beatish on Monday and

304
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: his individual workout. He was pushing a sled at one point.

305
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: Got good reports there. So good to see those guys

306
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: on the mend. Another guy who's on the mend and

307
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: literally chomping at the bit to get back in the game.

312

313
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,040

Speaker 1: I was like, are y'all okay? Like I get you

365
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: missed him. I did too, but like, let's make a breath.

366
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: It was. It was fun. The food trucks are amazing.

368
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: check it out. The Miller Light Plaza, Lighthouse Light House Stadium. Well, cool, girls,

369
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: I am so excited laden Vanderesh's coming back to the game,

370
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: back to the team, back to the field. However you

371
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 1: want to describe it. Um, I will be honest. Layton's

372
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,200
Speaker 1: a guy who I hadn't spend a lot of time

373
00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: getting to know, mostly because he hasn't been in the

374
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: long room. The time set him in there, and he's

375
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: similar to the safety room. He's he's in and he's out,

376
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: So I hadn't had a chance to really get time

377
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: to speak to him. But after sitting with him on

378
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys Hour yesterday, he was a phenomenal interview. He very

379
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: much just kept it real without being too cocky. You know,

380
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 1: there were some moments where you know, he felt a

381
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 1: little confident about this matchup coming up, which we'll get

382
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 1: to in a little bit. But just a really humble guy,

383
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: A really cool story he told me kind of the

384
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: origin of the wolf story, because I wasn't here whenever

385
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: they first drafted him, so I loved hearing that story.

386
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: So again, if you guys haven't checked that out Cowboy's

387
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: Hour on our YouTube page. Fantastic stuff. But when you

388
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: talk about a guy who is missed. And we've said

389
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: this before, you never really knew how much of an

390
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: impact he was making on the field until he wasn't

391
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: making that impact on the field. Some more stats for

392
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: you from Layton Vanderass fifty four solo tackles this season.

393
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: That's second on the team behind Dono who has seventy.

394
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: But I think, given you know the amount of games

395
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 1: that Layton has missed, who knows where that would have been.

396
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: He's got a sack and a forced fumble. And I

397
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: was interesting yesterday when we spoke to him. Bradsham asked

398
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: him if there was a blitz package available for Layton

399
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: for them to ever run, and a latent immediately said no, Like,

400
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 1: what do you what do you think what happened to

401
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: they let me blitz? I would go crazy? So I

402
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 1: love that. Hopefully we'll see that one play on Monday.

403
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: But regardless, guys, this is a guy on this field

404
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: who makes such an impact. He has been so missed

405
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks. With him being back

406
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: on the field, how does that change this defense? Well,

407
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: this linebacker corps right now, personally, I feel like they're

408
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: really struggling in coverage and that is somewhere where late

409
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: in this year really has taken I feel like a

410
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 1: step forward. And coverage, He's been fantastic and coverage, but

411
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 1: his recognition is through the roof. He's played the game

412
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: long enough to understand exactly what he's looking at. And

413
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: when you have like a demon Clark in there who's

414
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: trying to get acclimated. Anthony Barr is a veteran, but

415
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: he's not a veteran to this team. In this scheme,

416
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: when you have a guy that can come in there

417
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 1: and kind of give direction and let you know where

418
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 1: to line up. I've even seen him with the d

419
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: lineman tell mean like hitting him on the butt, like

420
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 1: move over, get into your gap, stuff like that. He's

421
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 1: still a leader on this team. He's a veteran on

422
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 1: this team, and I think his vision and his knowledge

423
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: has really missed across the defensive line. So it'll be

424
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: dope to get him back. Yeah. I think when you

425
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: think of guys in terms of allowing other people to

426
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,360
Speaker 1: make plays and them not being the slam dunk guy,

427
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: it's Micah Parsons. But what you didn't realize is it's

428
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 1: also late in Vanderesh because even just looking at his stats.

429
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: He you know, he had his fair number of assisted tackles,

430
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: but you also just look at how impressive he's been

431
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: to set up the other guys for success. You're Donovan

432
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 1: Wilsons and any but any everybody else. I mean even

433
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: just how imperative he's been to Deman Clark's growth within

434
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: this time is so impressive to watch. Something too that

435
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 1: stood out for me this season about Latin is his

436
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: tackles for loss. He is playing with a purpose and

437
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: an impact, and that is something that you love to

438
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 1: see from a guy like this. Who yeah, I mean,

439
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: people just have not given him enough credit these last

440
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: few years, since jeez, since twenty eighteen, I'm gonna say

441
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 1: his rookie season. People were so quick to throw Late

442
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 1: and Vanderesh under the bus for a long time. And

443
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: I'm so glad that you know, now everybody has a

444
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: better appreciation for what he does bring to this defense.

445
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: He's your leader of the defense. You you know, you

446
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 1: have different ones within it. But he was missed in

447
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: very many ways. You know, his productivity on the field,

448
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 1: but also just that boost that he's giving guys. He

449
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: can diagnose things so quickly and so easily It's come

450
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: so natural to him, and I give a lot of

451
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: that credit to him being bought into the dan Quinn

452
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: defensive scheme. I always go back to that, and that's

453
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,640
Speaker 1: what happens when your guy is bought into what you're

454
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 1: bringing to the table. And I love that for him.

455
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 1: I love too yesterday when we were talking, he is

456
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: to your point of being like that leader on the defense.

457
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: He um is never afraid to like tell these guys

458
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: like hey, like yeah, Like he was talking about Micah

459
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 1: and he was like he's like, hey, man, like look

460
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: we get it. Like you're the dude. No one's taken

461
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,360
Speaker 1: that away from you. You're the dude. You can make

462
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 1: those plays. Sometimes you don't need to, you can't. And

463
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: it was just it's so impactful just to hear that

464
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: kind of stuff and knowing that you have those leaders,

465
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: because like, let's be real, like sometimes it's hard to

466
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 1: you know, to speak up to the guys who were,

467
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: you know, making the big plays and getting all the headlines.

468
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: It's hard to tell those guys to sit down. But

469
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 1: I think that's what makes a leader really impressive. I

470
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: think that's what makes him such an impressive leader. Now,

471
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 1: of course, They're facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a team

472
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: that the Cowboys have yet to beat. Tom Brady seven

473
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 1: to oz against the Goat, and something Brad asked that

474
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: I thought was a phenomenal question. But Brad asked, Layton,

475
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: you know, obviously there's there's no denying how good Tom

476
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: Brady is as a quarterback, right, But is there ever

477
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 1: a moment when you're facing a Tom Brady, when you're

478
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: facing an Aaron Rodgers or you know, someone to that effect,

479
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: is there ever a moment where you can feel that

480
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 1: they are rattled by you? And I love this answer

481
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: from Layton, Jazzy, if we could play that out for

482
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: me please, then this year was really like my first

483
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: truth like shot to actually like play against him a

484
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 1: good amount. And there were certain plays And I watched

485
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: the game this morning too. I when Facility got in

486
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: the hot tub, and that was the first thing I

487
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: put on my iPad. It was the Tampa Bay game

488
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: from first thing in this season and just watching and

489
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 1: there are certain plays in there where I know, like, dude,

490
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: you saw exactly what I was doing and you went

491
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: away and like or had to read a different side

492
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: of the field, and so like knowing that and seeing

493
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: that and knowing that you can have an effect on

494
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 1: him and playing the game within a game, because I

495
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: mean where the quarterbacks of the defense and a lot

496
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: of his reads are going to come based off of

497
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: the second level at the linebacker level and what we're

498
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 1: doing and how we're controlling the field. So the more

499
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 1: you can keep him on his toes, even if it's

500
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: just a few times in big crunch time moments, that

501
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: adds up and as an effect. So you think about

502
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons in the way that offense is prepared to

503
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 1: disrupt Micah Parsons in the game that he plays, But

504
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 1: now you've got Michael Parsons and a Layton vander esh

505
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: And by the way, he told us that he only

506
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 1: played fourteen snaps against Tom Brady last year, So he

507
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: said not a lot, but obviously enough to make him

508
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: question whether or not he was going to throw to

509
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: my side or the plays that we were going to

510
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: run coming through me. So when I was talking earlier

511
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: about like his quiet confidence, like there were moments like

512
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: that where he was just like listen, like we're not

513
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,199
Speaker 1: worried about the bucks, and not in a way of

514
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: like they're not preparing for the bucks in that way,

515
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: not in a way that they're not taking the bucks

516
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 1: for granted, but it just felt you'll know how I

517
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: feel about confidence. It just felt good knowing that you're

518
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: getting this guy back. You're getting a guy back who

519
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: is ready to play and it's ready to make an impact.

520
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: And now you got Tom Brady potentially shivering in his

521
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,440
Speaker 1: boots a little bit having a face of Laton vanderass. Yeah,

522
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 1: you made us. You made such a good point. I'm

523
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: glad that you pulled that clip about just the disguises

524
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, because Dan Quinn actually talked about

525
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 1: this yesterday. Just how do you beat a guy like Brady?

526
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 1: First of all, he corrected the reporter and said it

527
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:20,439
Speaker 1: will first of all kind of looked at it like

528
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: it's our defense against their offense. It's not just one person.

529
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,439
Speaker 1: But then also he was like they were asking how

530
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: do you attack someone like Brady? He was how do

531
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: you affect him? Move him off his spot, a gap

532
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: and bdapp pressure. I hope Mica is a part of that.

533
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: Just disguise is also in the secondary to throw off

534
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: his timing and stuff. It's all the stuff that Dan

535
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: Quinn's been talking about. So I'm glad that they're kind

536
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: of on the same page because Tom Brady's seen it all.

537
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: He's seen it all. So Dan talked about affecting him

538
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 1: post snap because pre snap it's not realistic you're gonna

539
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: get on heat. Yeah, sure, okay, I know what you're doing.

540
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 1: He's seen everything. So just the fact that they have

541
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: that mindset that you're gonna have to chess match, you're

542
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 1: gonna have to get in their head, is is good

543
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: to know move before. Yeah, that's the mental side of things.

544
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: To be able to get back to that defensive scheme

545
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: that's confusing for offenses. That's what I want to see.

546
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: That's what you need for this game. And I'm looking

547
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 1: at Layton Vanderesh's history against Tampa Bay and I like it.

548
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: You see some growth the back in twenty twenty one.

549
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,400
Speaker 1: He only had two tackles during that game, and then

550
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 1: a combined total of nine tackles the last time they

551
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: played at Tampa Bay back in September. So you love

552
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: to see growth, right, And when you see Layton Vanderesh

553
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,199
Speaker 1: coming back and you know the impact he's had on

554
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 1: that run defense, which necessarily isn't necessarily going to be

555
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 1: the test that this Tom Brady Bucks team is going

556
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,400
Speaker 1: to put to you. But you also know that Layton

557
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 1: has that speed. When he wants to have that speed,

558
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: he's speedy, and so again he sets people up for

559
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,120
Speaker 1: success too. And I'm excited Hankins coming back as huge. Yeah,

560
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: you could see it, and you could see, like Leyton

561
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 1: in his time with the Cowboys, one he has when

562
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: he has good dt play and he can play free,

563
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: he is a different player. And I think that's what

564
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 1: we really saw in the latter part the season before

565
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 1: he got injured, was Hankins coming in there and being

566
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 1: able to eat of those double teams and stuff. It

567
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: really allows your linebackers to not deal with offensive line

568
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 1: and climbing on them and stuff. So it's a trickle

569
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,159
Speaker 1: down effect. So they're gonna them coming back together, I

570
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 1: think is going to be beneficial for both of them

571
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 1: at the same time. Yeah, let's talk a little bit

572
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 1: more about this defense, because I know that the last

573
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,880
Speaker 1: couple of weeks have been tough with just the performances

574
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,479
Speaker 1: and missing the opportunities and not It's so hard when

575
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: you start out and it's so shiny and it's so

576
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 1: new and everything you know. It's good, and you're a lead,

577
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: and you're leading the league in sacks, and the pass

578
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: rush is unmatched and it's a privilege, and all the

579
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,239
Speaker 1: sudden people figure it out right, and then you're hit

580
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: with some injuries, which you're unfortunate, and now all of the

581
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: the sudden you're having to pivot. Something that I find

582
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: interesting about this matchup is that they are facing an

583
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 1: offense that does it produce as much as we've seen

584
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: in the past. Say that this is a Tampa Bay

585
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: team that averages eighteen point four points per game, good

586
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: for twenty fifth in the league, facing a defense that

587
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: allows twenty point one. On the flip side of that,

588
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense scores about twenty seven point five points

589
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 1: a game, third in the league, and the Buccaneers defense

590
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 1: allows twenty one point one. So, if we're really trying

591
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: to simplify this here, I think you go back to

592
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season when we were relying on

593
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: the defense to keep us alive. I think that's a

594
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: great kind of idea to go back to, right, allow

595
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,959
Speaker 1: this defense to flourish. You're getting a lot of your

596
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: guys back, You're working through the kinks of it. There's

597
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 1: obviously still some concerns, but allow the defense to do

598
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: what the defense does best, and now you have an

599
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: offense who has picked it up, not over the last

600
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 1: couple of games, but throughout the end of the season.

601
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,479
Speaker 1: With Dak's return. Now you have the offense that can

602
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: supplement that once elite defense. To me, that's the game.

603
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 1: And don't get me wrong, like Tom Brady's gonna tom Brady,

604
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna come down to the fourth quarter and he's

605
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: gonna have a two minute drill and the opportunity to

606
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: succeed just like you. Alway he does because it's not

607
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 1: I'm manifesting. It's not saying, it's not manifesting. It's just

608
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: the reality. I mean, like, who did they just beat

609
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: to win to win the title? Oh yeah, what happened?

610
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: What happened the whole game? It came down to the

611
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Tom Brady turns up in the fourth quarter,

612
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: that's whatever. He finally shows up. His body's ready to

613
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: go right, and then the last two and a half

614
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 1: minutes of the game, what does he do? He winds

615
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 1: down the clock. Is the goat for a reason? And

616
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 1: then you win and now all of a sudden, you're

617
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: the fourth seed. Yeah, and he brought up the house yeah,

618
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: and with the with the first time, and in his

619
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: in his career, with a losing record, by the way. Like,

620
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: here's the thing, I think when it comes to getting

621
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: in their heads early, it's something you have to continue

622
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: to pester and pester and pester. You start early, like

623
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: Layton's talking about. You get in there early. You get

624
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: in tom Brady's face because attacking the edges isn't going

625
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: to be good enough. Tom Brady's gonna get that ball

626
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: in and out. You need to get in his face.

627
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: I'm talking collapse that pocket, make that the goal, attack

628
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: the aggressive, be physical, because again I mean their fifth

629
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: in passing yards and their first in passing attempts in

630
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: the NFL right now, for a reason. Tom Brady, yes,

631
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 1: not the same tom Brady we've seen in years pass

632
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 1: but it doesn't make him any less of a threat.

633
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: It's just for me. I think what's exciting about this

634
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: matchup specifically is all the talk about the cornerback situation

635
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 1: with the Cowboys locker room. This is your time, Nashan, right,

636
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: that excites you, It excites me. Becaut hold on because

637
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: what well, what better way to restore confidence within that

638
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: cornerback room. Then hey, I can make plays on Tom

639
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 1: Brady because if your d line is doing what they

640
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: need to do getting pressure in I don't know, and

641
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: your cornerbacks are on par you have Treyvon Diggs, you

642
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: have Nashan right, you have Duran Bland making sure that

643
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 1: those plays are being made. I'm not that so it's

644
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 1: it's possible. Well, that's contingents. Well, yeah, that's That's one

645
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: of the things I'm looking for in the matchup, is like,

646
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 1: is Treyvon Digs to travel? And if he does travel,

647
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 1: we've seen him play well against Mike Evans. Now the

648
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: other two guys to think about having guy's travel though,

649
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: is that the other gentleman's communication got to be on point,

650
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: on point. But when you mentioned you mentioned how the

651
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: Bucks offense is not super They're not just scoring a

652
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 1: whole bunch, they're not as really explosive offense. However, you

653
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 1: did see against the Panthers that if you allow them

654
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 1: to throw the ball down field, they will take advantage

655
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 1: of those and that's really because they're not getting much

656
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: explosive play, so that's giving them turnovers giving them opportunities

657
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: they're they're going to try to take advantage because offensively,

658
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: it's been difficult for them to get really anything going consistently.

659
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: So you just got the Cowboys defense in that cornerback

660
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 1: two spot, which I think is going to be I

661
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: would assume it's going to be no Sean right, just

662
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: because I felt like dan Quinn said that he felt

663
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 1: like he found something with them. But they're gonna have

664
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: to be on their p's and q's because he's going

665
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: to be looking to take advantage. Just what That's what

666
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: Brady does. Yeah, yeah, that's what he does. I agree.

667
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: I think I want Nashan to be the guy in

668
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 1: this situation. I want him to help. I think he's

669
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: he's still not there personally for me to feel comfortable

670
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: in it. I think he's just something about him just

671
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: doesn't give me that like, oh, I feel good about it.

672
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 1: Like when I see Trayvon out there, I know he's

673
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: gonna get burned once or twice because that's the reality

674
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: of the position, but I feel confident in his ability

675
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: to bounce back. Nashan kind of makes me a little nervous. Well,

676
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 1: he did that, and he did that at last game though,

677
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: I felt like he had that one big play, but

678
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: he bounced back and was to tackle well, he had

679
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,959
Speaker 1: a couple of breakups. Like beggars can't be users at

680
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 1: this point, we don't know, like we don't know like exactly,

681
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: like he is the best option at this point, and

682
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: especially for the communication factor being back there, because not

683
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: only is he I know Xavier Rose was brought in

684
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: making to see him later. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

685
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 1: He might be able to bring him in later if

686
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 1: there is need be. But when you talk about your secondary,

687
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: especially going against a Tom Brady, especially going like the

688
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: scheme of it all has to be important. Your disguises

689
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: have to be on point. And with dan Quinn talking

690
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: about some of the things they're gonna be thrown at him,

691
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: I am assuming that Wright would be the best guy

692
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: for that because he's been here, he's he knows everything

693
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: that they do back there. So I don't know how confident,

694
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: like you said, but it's what we got, It's what

695
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: we got, and that's and that's how it is. I'm

696
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: happy we signed Xavier Rose. I know this is a

697
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: guy that's bounced around over the last couple of years,

698
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 1: but at the very least you get a guy with

699
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: some experience. I can't wait to seem at practice because

700
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: that's also what I said about Trey von Mullin and

701
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 1: then U we saw how that went. So I'm glad.

702
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 1: That's the one thing that I am glad about with

703
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: this Washington Commanders game that I did, you know, give

704
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: credit for they did try some stuff. I feel like

705
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: there was a point where they just said, look, this

706
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 1: just sain't it is saint it It's not our day,

707
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 1: so let's try some different things. Like there was one point,

708
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: I believe in the third quarter where Dak was just

709
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: yeating the ball down the field to Noah Brown by

710
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: just a heaven a prayer, hoping that someone can make

711
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: a play. I don't think that's something normally that you're

712
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: gonna do and back to back to back, you know downs,

713
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 1: But I appreciate their creativity. I appreciate that we finally

714
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: got to see treyvon Mullin so that we can know

715
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,479
Speaker 1: that we need to keep looking now you know, yeah,

716
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: now we know. So it's cool. So I am thankful

717
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: to Mike McCarthy. I'm thankful to Dan Quinn about that

718
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: UM and we'll see, Like I said, practices tomorrow, guys,

719
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: So we'll we'll, We're gonna take a look at it,

720
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: at the options as Lord jays all the things. But

721
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: something else that has been floating around in the football

722
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 1: universe is Mike McCarthy's job potentially being on the line.

723
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 1: And I say that with a semi straight face. We're

724
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,239

Speaker 1: Go vote for our eye Jeans, vote for dak Vote

765
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 1: for James. Listen to Aisha because we got some breaking

766
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,320
Speaker 1: news for you guys here on Girls Talk, Boys Talk. Yeah,

767
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,919
Speaker 1: a Field Yates, is that how you say it? Yes?

768
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 1: He announced that the Colts have claimed centered Dakota Shepley

769
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: off waivers from the Cowboys, and Shepley can officially join

770
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: his new team fall into Super Bowl per league rules. Also,

771
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 1: James Washington worked out with the Giants today, so Jiggy

772
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: good to choose some former Cowboys. Dakota Shepley I think

773
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,839
Speaker 1: was elevated last week as well, so good for him.

774
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 1: He's a guy who was always nice to be in

775
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: the locker room, so I appreciate that. Thanks Matt. We

776
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 1: wish him well. Thanks for that news. Let's talk a

777
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: little Mike McCarthy, because this is something we are obviously

778
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy stands on this show. We enjoy Mike McCarthy,

779
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: but I just want to give you guys some reasons

780
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: to also enjoy Mike McCarthy before we open up this discussion.

781
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: So he's got two years left in his contract. As

782
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 1: we know, ladies, he's been here since twenty twenty. He

783
00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: has back to back twelve and five win seasons. That's

784
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: first time since ninety four ninety five that's happened. First

785
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 1: time to have back to back playoff appearances since six

786
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 1: oh seven, first time since the same coach did that

787
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,720
Speaker 1: since ninety eight to ninety nine. That was Chan Gailey

788
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 1: who did that. He's got one of the top offenses

789
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 1: this season. And when you look at all of the

790
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: things that have gone I'm going to use the word

791
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: wrong for lack of better terms, but all of the

792
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 1: adversity that this team has had this year. To have

793
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: a twelve and five season where you played five games

794
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,919
Speaker 1: with your backup quarterback who had one game under his belt.

795
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: You've got your starting quarterback who's thrown fifteen interceptions through

796
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 1: twelve games and still somehow has one of the top

797
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 1: scoring offenses in the league. The Cowboys are first in

798
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: takeaways with thirty three back to back seasons. Last year

799
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 1: they have thirty four. They are first in red zone

800
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: efficiency seventy one point four percent. When they get in

801
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: the red zone they're going to score a touchdown. And

802
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 1: they are third in points per game, as I mentioned,

803
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: and they have a plus ten turnover differential, good for

804
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: second in the league. Now, I say all that to

805
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: say people are unhappy with Mike McCarthy, and I would

806
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 1: love this is a day where I would love for

807
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: us to be able to open the phone to callers

808
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: because I want to understand the Mike McCarthy disant, because

809
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:15,760
Speaker 1: I want to understand where where has he gone wrong?

810
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean. He's a nice enough guy.

811
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: He is showing results, and I get it. Last year's

812
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 1: playoff performance wasn't what anybody wanted. That was. It was horrible.

813
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: I literally have videos on my phone to me crying

814
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 1: from that game. But I just want to understand, and

815
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 1: I would love to hear you guys' opinion just on

816
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: Mike and what he's done here, because to me, this

817
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: is frustrating. I don't know if you guys feel that,

818
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: but I was listening on the radio them talk about

819
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 1: it this morning and it just it annoys me. So

820
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 1: I want to open it up to you guys before

821
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: we get there, though, I want to play Jerry Jones.

822
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,439
Speaker 1: This morning on the fan, he was asked if Mike

823
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: were to lose or if the Cowboys rather were to

824
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: lose on Monday, if that would mean that Mike McCarthy's

825
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: job is in jeopardy. Here's what Jerry Jones had to say. No,

826
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 1: I don't even want to know. Let's it. I don't

827
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: need to go into all the plas teams for manuses.

828
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 1: But we're not seeing any we're not debasing. I've got

829
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 1: a lot more to evaluate Mike McCarthy owned than this

830
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 1: playoff game. Good for Jerry, And when I tell y'all

831
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 1: the second he was asked if Mike Stroff was in jeopardy,

832
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: and he hit that no hard too. That's a no, right,

833
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 1: And I want to be clear, like we have known

834
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: Jerry to say one thing and do another thing, so

835
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: I keep that in the back of my mind. But

836
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: this felt much more like, are you guys kidding me?

837
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: That you're asking me this question right now, given what

838
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,280
Speaker 1: he's done. Now, I do think that the playoff picture

839
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 1: is a really big thing for Jerry. He's obvious been

840
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: vocal and saying how badly he not only wants to

841
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 1: win a playoff, but to win another Super Bowl. But

842
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,880
Speaker 1: should Mike McCarthy be under fire? Is this something that

843
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 1: we should be talking about in week eighteen to twelve

844
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: and five team going to the playoffs, to the second

845
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:05,879
Speaker 1: strade season? No, no, io, Jerry, No, No. Here's the thing.

846
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 1: Very interesting turn of events because when Mike McCarthy was

847
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,879
Speaker 1: first hired, I had my biggest Dallas Cowboys fan hat

848
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: on and I was seeing things from a very emotional

849
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys fan perspective, and I didn't know much about

850
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy. The only thing I knew is that playoff

851
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 1: game where DOZ caught it. That is what I knew

852
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,800
Speaker 1: of Mike McCarthy. That was my impression. And then, of course,

853
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,720
Speaker 1: you know, reading everything everyone was saying about him beforehand. Now,

854
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,880
Speaker 1: what I didn't understand until this season and having the

855
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 1: privilege to be in the building and to talk to

856
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy and talk to the players, is how much

857
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,359
Speaker 1: of an importance it holds for your guys to be

858
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: bought into what the coaching staff is doing. And it

859
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 1: shows the way these guys talk about their coach and

860
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 1: they're not going to go on and say anything bad

861
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 1: about him. But again, all the conversations that we have

862
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 1: in the locker room, people don't know. People don't know

863
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,399
Speaker 1: those conversations, and they can say anything they want. Never

864
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,839
Speaker 1: once have I heard anybody say anything negative about Mike

865
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,840
Speaker 1: McCarthy in that locker room, and in fact, they're so

866
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 1: bought into this culture. It shows they we talk about

867
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: this that echoed vocabulary within this building because of Mike

868
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 1: McCarthy and even just I will forever have so much

869
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 1: respect for how he puts the mental health aspect in

870
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 1: the forefront of everything for these players, the way he's

871
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 1: dealt with injuries, the way he's tried to preserve players

872
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 1: for the future. There's so many aspects of Mike McCarthy

873
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: as a head coach that just deserve to be praised,

874
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: but don't because you know, a lot of people don't

875
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 1: get to see it from that light. I just think

876
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: it's absolutely ridiculous. Even with the stats you mentioned, Haley,

877
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 1: nobody should be questioning Mike McCarthy's job even if there's

878
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 1: a loss on Monday. It's so outrageous to me and

879
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 1: it makes me roll my eyes so far back into

880
00:43:54,320 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 1: my head. I personally think that so many fans and

881
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 1: so many people. I don't know if there's anything he

882
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:05,880
Speaker 1: can do other than when the ship that will that

883
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 1: will make anybody happy, Like I'm not trying to ship shit.

884
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: I heard I heard something almost like huh blame meet

885
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: up the time. I'm like, man, are we Carson? I

886
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: don't care ram, but anyway, uh nah, man I when

887
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 1: you look around it like like she said, like just

888
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,320
Speaker 1: getting an opportunity to kind of see how things operating.

889
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: Stuff it is. We have no idea how hard it

890
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,760
Speaker 1: is to run an NFL team, to put these things together,

891
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 1: to put the practice schedules together, to do all this stuff.

892
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 1: And um, they've seen success here. Not only have they

893
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: seen has he seen success here? He's righting wrongs with

894
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: this coaching staff. This coaching staff is one that almost

895
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 1: he completely brought in. Then also the turnover in players,

896
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,839
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, it was like sixty percent last year,

897
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: like sixty percent the year before. So there's a lot

898
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 1: to be juggling, and this year in particular, I come

899
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 1: into the offseason I was really looking at Mike McCarthy like,

900
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: this is your third year. You're having a true install period, right,

901
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 1: Like he's finally no COVID, no, none of that, And

902
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 1: I feel like he's taking rains and really really gathered

903
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,439
Speaker 1: the type of men they even want to bring into

904
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,920
Speaker 1: the locker room and the kind of culture they want

905
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: to build. So I just feel like with anyone discussing

906
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: whether this job his jobs in limbo or not, I

907
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 1: just think there's so much pressure on anybody coaching for

908
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 1: the Cowboys because of the playoff contention and the fact

909
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 1: that you know the playoff history with the Cowboys. I

910
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: don't know if it's ever gonna be enough until they

911
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: win multiple, multiple games. So everyone's thinking, I think a

912
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 1: lot of people are acting off of emotion when they're

913
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 1: saying those things one hundred percent. And it's one of

914
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: those things too that you're damned if you do, you're

915
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 1: damned if you don't. Because if Mike McCarthy goes and

916
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: wins y'all Super Bowl this season, next season, say they

917
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 1: lose one game, Oh fire, Mike McCarthy, like, nobody's ever

918
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 1: happy with what this Cowboys team and this coaching staff does.

919
00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 1: It feels like it's just it's act on emotions every

920
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 1: single time there's a loss. And I get it, this

921
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: last game horrendous. We were all upset about it, but

922
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:09,239
Speaker 1: y'all you're talking about a team that still had a

923
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 1: chance to take the NFC as a whole with a

924
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 1: number one seed going into their final game of the season. Like,

925
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 1: stop it, please, I'm so tired of it. It's never enough,

926
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: and it's just gonna be micro I guess, oh, just

927
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 1: under a microscope. You're always going to be under a microscope.

928
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: Is to be expected. I'm just disappointed that we're talking

929
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 1: about jobs and all this stuff when there's a playoff

930
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 1: game on Sunday on Monday, literally, like there's just so

931
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 1: much more and I'm just like, I just think that

932
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 1: that's not the right approach to be taken right now.

933
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 1: And I'm not a fan. I agree my opinion. I

934
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:49,840
Speaker 1: actually came with some heat there. I know it's like

935
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 1: that dang all right, I will say to that. Mike

936
00:46:55,200 --> 00:47:01,280
Speaker 1: was asked on yesterday yesterday just about like the playoff history.

937
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 1: He was asked about facing Tom Brady and how the

938
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys have yet to beat Tom Brady. And you know,

939
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 1: he said, like, dosa add any pressure to the team?

940
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 1: Does that add any pressure to you as a coach?

941
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,720
Speaker 1: And I love Mike McCarthy without hesitation, said, the history

942
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 1: of this team is not our problem. The history of

943
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:19,240
Speaker 1: our team, the history of this team is not our responsibility,

944
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: nor is our in our motivating factor because the reality

945
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 1: is like, this is what we can do with the

946
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 1: team that we have. So he's obviously not bothered. Jerry

947
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,640
Speaker 1: sounds like he's not bothered. I will leave you with this.

948
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 1: His record in January is five and four, nine and

949
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,320
Speaker 1: nine in the postseason, so he's had success winning in

950
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,359
Speaker 1: the postseason and he is a perfect one and oh

951
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 1: in February, so we know what that means if we

952
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 1: can get to the super Bowl, he's a perfect one

953
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 1: and oh, speaking it into existence, we are Mike McCarthy

954
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 1: stands on this podcast, ladies. Insightful conversation is always with
