We started doing this about 21 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: about two you or three years ago, where all of 22 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: the family speaks to the employees and kind of lets 23 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: them know, uh, different parts of the business and what's 24 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: going on in cowboy world and and all the family speaks. 25 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: It's a really cool event. Um, I had a show 26 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: to host, so I bailed a little bit early to 27 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 1: get over to hang out with my boy and Nate. 28 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: It's all good, man, I mean, we we can do it. Man. 29 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: We talk a little bit about the defense, We'll talk 30 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: a little bit about the offense and some of the 31 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: things that we uh, you know that's that's can be 32 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: worse than for the fans, especially like with our young secondary. 33 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: How how are they gonna play that all? Either, you know, 34 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: with Hitchens going down, with the suspensions, just it's a 35 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: whole slew of things that that you open a season 36 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: up with, you know, and you you take uh. I 37 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: wish I could say every team is dealing with this 38 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: to this magnitude, but they're not. See because we got 39 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: a hot a headliner with Zeke, and then we got 40 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 1: how's our secondary, then we got the guys that are suspended, 41 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: and how we're gonna try to play the guys that 42 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: are here. We got the injuries. We got not only 43 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: hitches injured, then we got Jalen Smith coming from injury. 44 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: How do you play that situation? You know? And whose 45 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,839 Speaker 1: shoulders does this fall on? It only falls on one 46 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: person's shoulder. Who's that that's the quarterback. When you have 47 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: when you when you have all of this swirling, when 48 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: you have all of this going, when everything is stacked 49 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: against you, this test is the metal of your quarterback. 50 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: Step up and see he's a young guy, So what 51 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: will what will Scott Lanahan? What will Jason Garrett? What 52 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: will Wade? Was to say, you know what, let's let's 53 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: just nudge him out there. Let's just nudge him out 54 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 1: their own on George Bush, We're gonna push him out 55 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: in the middle. We're just gonna nudge him on the 56 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: edge and let him be cowful because too many good 57 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: quarterbacks have been ruined because they've had the tote teams right, 58 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: you know, And we don't know where he's at as 59 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: far as trying to total a team right. And let's 60 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: we'll get into kind of the matchups in a little bit, 61 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: because I want Kurt to chime in when he gets 62 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: in here. But let's talk about that's a great point, Nate. 63 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: Let's talk about that we didn't have a choice last year. Yes, 64 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: you had to throw him out there. You had to 65 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: roll with him. See what you got, Let's go. When 66 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: Romo went down, you know, I'm sure ninety nine percent 67 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: of the people were like, hey, I would be ecstatic 68 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: with another eight and eight season. We're rolling out a 69 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback. Rookie quarterbacks do not have the year that 70 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott had last year. So now that you now 71 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: he's got a year under his belt, you know that 72 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: he can take care of the ball. You know he 73 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: can throw the ball, you know he can run the ball. 74 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: You know, I think this team knows they can trust him. 75 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: He's not gonna make any He's not. He's going to 76 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: keep the mistakes to a minimum. You you talked about 77 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: nudging him out there. How do they handle this first game? 78 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: Is it is the game plan this year going to 79 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: be the same that it was last year, where it's 80 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: somewhat conservative putting him in good situations, or do you 81 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 1: think they're gonna open it up a little bit more 82 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,679 Speaker 1: and see if he can what he can do with offense. 83 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: What they'll do is you don't, You don't. They don't 84 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: have to make a drastic change as long as Zeke 85 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: is in the lineup. Uh, when you have a special 86 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: talent like Zeke that can run the ball. And I 87 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: was trying, and I always try to tell people this, 88 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: it's it's good to have a great quarterback, but it's 89 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: good when your great quarterback can come up and in 90 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: certain situations down and just first and ten, Zeke and 91 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: the ball game, dacking the ball game eight man front, 92 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: second and seven, possibly another eight man front. Now where 93 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: it get tricky at not for Dak but for the 94 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: defense when it's second and five. Now they got to 95 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: make a decision where they've bring a guy in the box. 96 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: Now that's a that's a possible passing situation. That's probably 97 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: a throwaway. Down did we throw? Now we look at that, 98 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: we see we see we see Dad's we see uh Williams, 99 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: we see the little guy number eleven in the seats 100 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: in the stop. Now when you say, when you say 101 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: eight man front, break that down to say, someone show 102 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: three linebackers, how many is that at seven? Okay, now 103 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 1: you bring one of them safeties up, how many is that? 104 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: That's eight? That's the eighth man. And what they gotta 105 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: do is they can't run him up. What they do 106 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: is they got the four man front. They take visibly, 107 00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: take the mic linebacker and move him over all of 108 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: a sudden a safety you're falling there or you will 109 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: see and up for better for for visual you will 110 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: see Sean Lee get up, slide to the strength. He'll 111 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: come from his is uh will spot slide closer to 112 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: the mic mike slide. Then you'll see this uh the 113 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: safety coming up, creeps up, creeps up as the lastmunt 114 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: of the fence. Now, now do the linebackers play closer 115 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage, They set the same spot. 116 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: The only person that makes a visible move, the only 117 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: two people is normally your will and the and the 118 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: and the safety and the safety slides it slides up 119 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: and the better running back the closer they get, the 120 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: more dramatically change. Well, what that does is you can 121 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: about set you all. You give them certain formations. You 122 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: look at film, this formation, hit this formation here they 123 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: doesn't we do trip to this side or do we 124 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: do uh straight out from this side? What? What? What 125 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: do they do? And so you can kind of dictate 126 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: what they do. Now Dad comes up and has a 127 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: clear read. Got you. So you've got eight men up 128 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: close to the line of scrimmage. Then you got three guys. Yeah, 129 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: now more spread out, Yes, so you've got more real 130 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: estate to work with us, so you can pick. Thank 131 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: you for these guys. So now you got play action 132 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: passed that coming too effect big time. Now you got 133 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: that safety back deep in the hole. Do you work scenes? 134 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: Do you let Jason Witten work the middle of the field. 135 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: You got cold beast with an option route over there, 136 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: and he's one on one. Is it gonna be a safety? 137 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: Is it gonna be a linebacker? Neither one can cover it. 138 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: But better still, when Dad comes up and looks around 139 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: m now he can go to a pass play that 140 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: favors him. You don't have to guess. You don't have 141 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: to kind of have a big pre read. He always 142 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: pre reading. He's dropping back, he's looking to see what's transpired. 143 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: But if guys are late, it puts stress on the defense. 144 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: You know, Oh it's a pad. Now the safety trying 145 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: to get back into his responsibility. You know, if they 146 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: running crossing routes, that really messes up everything. So he 147 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: has the safety has a split second to read whether 148 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: it's a run or a pass. It's a pass, he 149 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: has to drop back into its coverage or they could 150 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: already be in a man situation. Normally that situation later 151 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: right there, they already have. Okay, I'm the safety. I'm 152 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: looking at this tight end because they got two tight end. 153 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: I got first responsibility number one. I'll take the tight end. 154 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: Other guy to the other side, this strong side linebacker. 155 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: If there's two tights and I'm going from two tight 156 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: well I got that. I got that tight end. If 157 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: he came second guy in the backfield, maybe go to 158 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: the mic. Whatever, they already got a man up. You 159 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: kind of gotta you kind of when you do it 160 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: the way the Cowboys are doing it, it dictates coverage. 161 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: It dictates what what what happens when when people used 162 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: to go into a two zep zone and try to 163 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: cover us early in the game. Back in the Daily Giants, 164 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: you're hearing North say, you know what, let's swing the 165 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: ball in EMM and out of the backfield. We're gonna 166 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: make somebody else cover us besides a linebacker, because we 167 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: know that ain't working. Let's put j nobcheck with split 168 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: him out of a little bit. Put this guy over hood, 169 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: this guy out here, let's dictate what coverage they're gonna 170 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: give us. Now, all of a sudden, we got one 171 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: on one blocking on the officive line. Now we can 172 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: get these guys in the running game. We ain't worried 173 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: about We never worried about the eighth man coming in 174 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: the box that you weren't gonna tacking him in front 175 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: of loss. We're always gonna have at least a three 176 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: point three yard game. That's zeke if you always get 177 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: a three yard game, especially on the first first down. 178 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: Now you're looking at second and seven, you get three 179 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: or four. Now you're looking at third and three or less. 180 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys a beast at that Right Now you come sneaking up. 181 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: We're in the middle of the field. You come sneaking up. 182 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: All of a Sudden's early in the game. We're taking 183 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: a shot over the top with deads be either hitting 184 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: him over the top, or we're hitting the back should 185 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: of fade, or were hitting cold cold bees on a 186 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: little on a little option. Now, now walk me through this. 187 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: You get eight men in the box, which is your 188 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: ideal situation, right yes, versus the run and that's probably 189 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: the biggest difference between having Zeke in the backfield and 190 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: any of your other three. That's right, they've they're they're 191 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: gonna prefer to put eight in the box if it's 192 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: a running situation, yeah, because Zeke's gonna get it like 193 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: him it three yeah, and a cloud of dust at least, 194 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: right right, So when you have a threat like Zeke 195 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: and then you bring in the play action you fake 196 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 1: the handoff, what does that do to the defense? That 197 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: what it does a lot of times is it holes 198 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: the linebackers for split second, for a split sick because 199 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: they're trying to figure out if you're handing off or 200 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: if they need to drop when you go to do 201 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: them crossing route, So you need to get in the scene. 202 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: That's putting stress on your safety. You know, that's put's 203 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: because now you can espec if you run a solo 204 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 1: route on one side and you're leaving a corner by 205 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: yourself with dead are you you cheat? That's safety over. Now, 206 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: that's leaving somebody one on one with Terence william So 207 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: he's got a third of the field just to work routes, 208 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: you know, and if he can get this corner guessing 209 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: at all. He wins, He wins this corner, just can't 210 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: stay on top of We get him into a trail technique. 211 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: Whether we're going to the center of the field where 212 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: Dace is drawing to other people away a skinny post, 213 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: or we're gonna a deep comeback or a deep out. 214 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: This he's got to decide is I'm gonna stay on 215 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: top of this corner as I mean, just receiver ours, 216 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: I'm a trail when when when he gets even with me, 217 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: He's got decisions to make two depending on where they're 218 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: had in the field. But any hesitation by defense puts 219 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: the offense in a winning mode. Any hesitation, because now 220 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: you got a two line, three linebackers hesitating, they take 221 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: two steps forward because they're gonna offers respect run first. 222 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: Now you're gonna your eyes are their own. Zeke. All 223 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden, he dropped back past Zeke. Oh, now 224 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: we gotta drop back. By that time, Whitney's already working 225 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: his magic. By that time, Besny is already to work 226 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: in his magic. Other guys are either downfield or putting 227 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: somebody out to help clear out something. You dictate to 228 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: the opt to the defense. What's going on? But when 229 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: they can sit back there. Okay, our cornerback gonna take 230 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 1: his cornerback. We gotta safety is sitting up in the 231 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: in the in the intermediate area. We gotta safety back deep. 232 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: What you're gonna do? We we zoned up. We read it. 233 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: We got hellicious pass rushes right, what you're gonna do? 234 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: This is what this is. This is how the Giants built. 235 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: That's why uh Collins and all of them guys didin't 236 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: scattered the Cowboys because they don't necessarily have to even 237 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,719 Speaker 1: though a Zeke, they don't necessarily to run up down 238 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: over an eight man front. They feel they got enough 239 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: horses up front, you know, to do what they need 240 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: to do. So, do you think the game plan after 241 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: explaining all that, do you think the game plan for 242 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 1: for Dak? The offensive game plan? Going into a game 243 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: for Dak is different if it's Zeke in the backfield 244 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: or one of your other three. It all depends on 245 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: how the game is playing out. You always want to 246 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: talking about like going going going into the game, you 247 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: want to know and I'm giving you what I think 248 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: going into the game plan, you want to stay as 249 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: though Zeke is the man, and that's how you're gonna 250 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: look at it. He always reading quarterback, never started reading coverages. 251 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: He coming up even in a run situation, he reading 252 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: coverages the quarterback, where Wilson reading it Alanahan the run. 253 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: Regardless of run, pass or any other thing. They always 254 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: reading coverages because they are everybody always trying to get 255 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: to the pass. The run is only to maintain are 256 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: to finish games, So they always reading coverages. He's looking 257 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: at what was that? So they can set up things 258 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: in the past, because that's how you that's how you win, 259 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: that's how you score with the past. So they always readincoverage. 260 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: So when he dropped back, when he when he come up, 261 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: if Zeke there, he knowing what they expect. But when 262 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: you're going against the giants, they say they don't care 263 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: about Zeke. With everybody care about Zeke because if you 264 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: break off something earlier, now now you got everybody cheating. 265 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: Now your passing game is wide open. But nothing comes nothing. 266 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: You don't add nothing on to Dak until you have to. 267 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: They got some wrinkles, They got some things that they 268 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: do better, like execution. First of all, you clean up 269 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: the things you were weak at back should of fade 270 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: the same in the ends on back, should of fade, 271 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: deep ball, thrown fade, intermediate routes. He worked on all 272 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: of that, as you saw in training camp. So you 273 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: clean up your weaknesses first, then you started learning how 274 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 1: to play within the offense. You don't have to add nothing. 275 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: Because he missed enough reads early in his career and 276 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: all of last year to now he's starting to see 277 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: his eyes starting open. He's starting to see it. Oh wow, 278 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: okay boom, I looked over here. I want to hear this. 279 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: There's my boy. They got double coverage. Oh they go. 280 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: Jason winning in the scene. Bye bye. If Nate sounds 281 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: distant because he dropped back, like passing away from the 282 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: microphone's so excited because everything is if he last year, 283 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: if he decided to throw the deads, he threw the 284 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: dead seemed like at certain times in the game, once 285 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: Dad's got back and he got constable, he saw what 286 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: he just threw it, the deads. Trying to figure out 287 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: what's going on. Where you got cold bees to coming 288 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: underneath or you had witting going up the scene? Oh 289 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: and better still, you look now you see my man 290 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: eighty eight is a better route runner. Cold bees can 291 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: run Robbers, Williams is perfecting his craft a little bit better. 292 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: You now, when you got cold bloody route runners, you're 293 00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: unstoppable because now this quarterback saying, okay, it ain't this 294 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: ain't what I have to do. You know, he always 295 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: say I'm throwing to the open man, and he's always 296 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: tried to read his progression. But now I'm throwing to 297 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: the open man because I know and I'm confident, and 298 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: I trust Dad is gonna be He's gonna throw to 299 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: a spot. Yea. So now the anticipation can get even better. 300 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: How speaking a route running, how how was how did 301 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: Bryce look in camp in preseason or his routes? Good? 302 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: Bryce Butler nevill What they asked him to do ain't 303 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: so much as right as catching. All he got was 304 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: catch the ball, and he's gonna be all right. Just 305 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: catch the ball. That's the key. Catch the ball. If 306 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: he would have came in camp dropping balls, we'd probably 307 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: been saying, oh boiler, Yeah, he came in camp. He understood. 308 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: He told him when he came on the show, he said, man, 309 00:16:54,440 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: I understand the routes. Okay, catch the ball. If you 310 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: had one issue with him last year, what would that 311 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 1: be catching the ball he dropped, He dropped I think 312 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: at least two touchdowns. Yeah, and see the long balls 313 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: you got, you know, and we'll talk about it some 314 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: more to mar But you can't. You can't. You gotta 315 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: understand that. And Dad's early career here, Who is this nemesis? 316 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: Who is when you when you see Batman and Robin, 317 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: you don't want to see the Joker?

I'm loving you 332 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: brought because I'm telling you the things you're asking. That's 333 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:18,959 Speaker 1: what fans want to know. I can't tell you every coverage, 334 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: but I can tell you what's simple. I can't when 335 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 1: you can. And this is the funny thing about it 336 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: is all the teams that win with consistency, and all 337 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 1: the teams that won last year they had one almost 338 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: one thing in coming. They can run when they had to, 339 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: They can pass if they needed to, but they can 340 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,360 Speaker 1: always pass. You look at the Raiders until car got hurt. 341 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: They running Game one great, but when they needed to run, 342 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: they ran. When the Stellers found they see legs, what happened? 343 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: They running the ball. Passing is their thing, bro, Passing 344 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: is their thing, right. They got the Brian Kidd back. 345 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: Now with Antonio Brown, they fini a this thing out. 346 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: That's why if Levion Better took the ball with three 347 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: or four times in the first game, who cares. But 348 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 1: because the passing, I'm offen's a linement. You think I 349 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: want to be waddling back all the time. Hold let 350 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: me block, Hold let me block. Oh I don't want 351 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: to block, you know, I don't want to block. The 352 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 1: Olivier Vernon for the forty plays. I would like to 353 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: knock him a rolph about thirty though, run off that ball, 354 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: but they can stack the line, they can stop that. 355 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 1: But if you become one dimensional, and this is a 356 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: funny thing about it, whether it's passed a run, if 357 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: a team got you one dimensional and they can forget 358 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: about the other aspect of the game you threw.

The team captains were announced today after 434 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: a team vote. Coach Garrett said Dak Prescott, Jason Witton, 435 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: Sean Lee, Tyrone Crawford, and Orlando Skendry and Dan Bailey 436 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: will all serve as captains for the upcoming season. That's 437 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: a whopping six captains. Normally they carry five. They do 438 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: two defensive, too offensive, and a special teams guy. And 439 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: coach Garrett even said that they tried to add a 440 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: seventh but the NFL rules wouldn't allow it. One glaring 441 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 1: captain that was on their last year that is not 442 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: this year is Travis Frederick. How do you guys feel 443 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: about him being left out as a captain? See an 444 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 1: issue with that? Well? I thought he'd I think he's 445 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: definitely a leader in the room. But seeing that you 446 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: can only have two offensive captains, I think who replaced him? 447 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: Da Dak Preston. I think you have to Yeah, you 448 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 1: have to your quarterbacks had better be a captain. And 449 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: then obviously Witton's you know, he's the elder statesman. He's 450 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: going to be a captain. So I feel bad for him, 451 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: and I think he will continue to be a leader 452 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: even without the sea or whatever. But um, you know 453 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: it's understandable, Nate does that Does that create create an 454 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,360 Speaker 1: awkward situation in the locker room when when a guy 455 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: is a captain and then the next year he's he's 456 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: not as it kind of your ribbon. Thanks for participating. 457 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: I don't know who our captains was. That's how important 458 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: it was, you know, to you guys, because this is 459 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: what has to happen. If the office line need to 460 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: pick it up, the center will say something. If the 461 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: defense is secondary need to pick it up. Scandrew may 462 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: not say a word. It may be coming from from 463 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: Byron Jones. That's those are captains. If if our team 464 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: needed something over the edge, Micael Irvin gave it to us. 465 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: I don't want to throw his play, but how he spoke, 466 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 1: So you know what. Emmt Smith was a captain one 467 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: time we need the thirty one he produced. Guess what 468 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: we loved on him? I was the captain so we had, 469 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: as this team will develop over the years, you had 470 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 1: what walks out front, and then you have what's behind 471 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: you that really runs the team. Have they always voted 472 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: as the team always voted for captains? Or when you played, 473 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: was that something that was kind of designated? Did the 474 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 1: coach's name? And how did that? Do you even know 475 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: how that worked? Back then? Noah didn't didn't care.

And and nobody takes nothing personal. 558 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: You know, if if you were that guy that did that, 559 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: that could not understand that we are at a at 560 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: a violent sport and a violent situation that takes calmness, 561 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: and you got, uh uh, it's never a word such 562 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: as organized chaos, but that's what it seems. And I 563 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: was that guy that everybody could vent on and it 564 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: okay right off, Yeah, because everybody had their roles, and 565 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: we were fortunate that we had guys and a head 566 00:31:55,800 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: coach that if you wasn't mentally tough, you didn't a loan. 567 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: Because the NFC East, which it is getting back that way, 568 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: we ruled. At one point it was seven or eight 569 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: Super Bowls and we were in all of them. So 570 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: we ruled. So it wasn't about what if you were soft. 571 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: I mean, they we we we cussed at each other, 572 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: but we also off the field, we parted together, we 573 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: had fun, We did a lot of great things. We 574 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: are complished about the things we were for each other's family, 575 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: But on the field we were grown men doing grown 576 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: men things. Were there were there, ever, any times where 577 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: tensions were high or nerves were high, and it was 578 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: a high you know, high stakes game and a high 579 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: stakes drive where someone made lighter of the situation than 580 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: what it was to calm everybody down. Or was it 581 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: always straight business? Once we're out there, once we h once, 582 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:55,239 Speaker 1: once we got on the field, you laugh, you know, 583 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: And I'm not just ain't got nothing to do with war, 584 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: But you see a lot of war movies, true war movies, 585 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: where a guys say something everybody laugh because the tension 586 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: is so great you just need some kind of release. Yeah, 587 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: every nine and then, you know, you would say something 588 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: you don't even know you said it, and everybody just smiled, 589 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: but never really laughed. Because the teams we and I'm 590 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: not saying the league's better back then, but the teams 591 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,959 Speaker 1: we played at the time we were winning Super Bowls 592 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: and we were an effective team. Other teams in the 593 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: league were to say, we're playing at forty nine s. 594 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: That's what we're facing in the NFC Championship them or 595 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: either Green Bay. We're playing them. Every year we were 596 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: playing the Giants, you know, we had to win twelve 597 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: games in order to get home feel advanta on No. 598 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: Nine or eight or ten, you had to win twelve 599 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: games to get the home fiel advantage not only in 600 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: your division, but to take it away from the forty 601 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: nine ers. Forty nine ers over there fighting for their 602 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: life with their guys.

Sometimes I try to sneak things 655 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 1: in on him because me and Troy didn't get along 656 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 1: real well when we play. When we played, and I 657 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: used try to sneak things on him, sometime he'll break 658 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: like Troy, man, boy, God leave me. You can throw 659 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: the rock like yeah, but you know, we just need 660 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: to win. You just need Yeah. Who was who was 661 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 1: the when you were playing? Who was the biggest rival 662 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 1: NFC East? Anybody? Any of them? Right? If the brother 663 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,319 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, And that's how I like it. I 664 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 1: used to brag. You know, a lot of people don't 665 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: like what I'm going to say. But any SEC team 666 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: that's playing for the National championship team, you was the 667 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 1: plan for the national champion. You will see every team 668 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: represented by the fan, by a fan in the SEC, 669 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: and they were as a force, come at you SEC. 670 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: That's how the NFC East used to be. Where if 671 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: if if I went to my first Super Bowl was 672 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: New York Giants in Tampa against Buffalo, They're like, who 673 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: you cheering for? You gotta ask that I broke bread 674 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: with Alt when he was on top of Troy and 675 00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: I had to pull it, you know, going for who 676 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: I know to be the toughest. You hear that about 677 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: the guys from the seventies, They hated the Redskins they had. Yeah, 678 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: but you know, but if but if you were to 679 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: watch these dudes do something about the field, you you 680 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,720 Speaker 1: it'd be like number straight love. Yeah. The Bills lost 681 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 1: not just four Super Bowls in a row, but four 682 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 1: Super Bowls to the NFC East. Yeah. But it's not 683 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: so much that way anymore, is it. I mean, well 684 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:33,720 Speaker 1: not now now. Now it's about individual brands fantasy football. Yeah, Tom, 685 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:39,359 Speaker 1: Tom Brady Man, I love him, Man, Tom Brady, I 686 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 1: love him. If he maybe he's not a team guy. 687 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: He maybe maybe he's not a team guy, you know, 688 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: and I'll find out as time go on. But to me, 689 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: he's ultimate team guy. It seemed like he's there for 690 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 1: his guys. He never says anything wrong about his guys. 691 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: He's always like Troy Man. I mean, Troy's like that 692 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: light switch. Man. You can get a smiling Troy walk 693 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: into his truck, laughing, changing gears, winding down. But by 694 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 1: the same choking you can see that, you know, how 695 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: you have a let shade thing. How you know you 696 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 1: can get the lights demer demer den. He is you 697 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,959 Speaker 1: seeing walking to the Cowboys out the lights go down 698 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: down all of a sudden, he locked into what he 699 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,359 Speaker 1: has to do with here as a football player. So 700 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: it's a different it's a different world altogether. And keeps 701 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 1: it in it. It seems like they, you know, keep 702 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: it in the house. Yeah, you never know there's a 703 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 1: blown assignment. You never know who if there's a crazy 704 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: thrown ball. You don't know if the receiver broke the 705 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: route or he went to the wrong spot. So you know, 706 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: there's a lot of them. Today's came off with captains. 707 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 1: Who who are our captors? Kurt's got the computer. I 708 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: have no idea. I never we never when when they 709 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: would announce our captains. And maybe they did have guys 710 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,359 Speaker 1: who get over in the corner and talk about it. 711 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: But it we had what we got. We had Hall 712 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: of Famers, we got a Ring of Honor, guys we 713 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 1: got we got just great guys like Kevin Gogan, I 714 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,239 Speaker 1: mean super guy Mark two and a super guy I 715 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: mean students of the game. I mean, I think what 716 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: you're saying is who cares who the captains are in 717 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 1: that locker room? You know who the leaders are? Yeah, 718 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 1: I mean because if Dak doing his theme, Dak is 719 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 1: getting along with everybody. If he if if he's the 720 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 1: right type of guy, he's getting along with everybody. He 721 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,839 Speaker 1: may not like everybody, but he's getting along with everybody. 722 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 1: And then that's what Jimmy always told us. I don't 723 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: care if you don't like Kurt and you don't like 724 00:40:53,840 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 1: that he's he's barefaced it. Respect Kurt. If now I 725 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: did you you bring him a super gilette raisor to 726 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: make they gotta like you. You just gotta learn to 727 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,400 Speaker 1: live with it, you know, Jimmy, I allowed all of 728 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: us to have our own radios. But if you walk by, 729 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,759 Speaker 1: your radio was louder than the other guy radio. He's like, hey, 730 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: turn it down. We can't hit the other man radio. 731 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 1: Turn it down. Let's respect one another. That's awesome.

Yeah, 817 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 1: you know, but uh you know they opened the stadium out. 818 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: We lost that one wall in the wall, like, but 819 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:12,800 Speaker 1: this is my house, thank you, Jerry. Wow. Uh was it? 820 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 1: Do you know the real story? But wasn't that the 821 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,880 Speaker 1: game that Marion Barber pulled his uh, I mean destroyed 822 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 1: his quad? Yeah, it was never any good after that. 823 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: I don't know if that was the game. Yeah, but 824 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 1: I had the roof open and it was like ninety 825 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 1: five or one hundred degrees outside. Can I can I 826 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 1: give you just a couple of quick matchups that I 827 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 1: want the fans to watch. Yes, yes, Lea is that's okay? Uh, offensively, 828 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 1: watch our right tackle versus Jason Pierre Paul. Remember he 829 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 1: had a few penalties against Cleo Matt the Raiders, but 830 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 1: he needed to see elite pass rushier and I put 831 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: Jason Pierre Paul last year in the last two or 832 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: three games. Jason Pierre Paul came on big, you still 833 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,879 Speaker 1: got it? Yeah, and he's found it. You know, he's 834 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 1: because he had to work around his hand, that that 835 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 1: damaged hand he has. So let's watch that. Let's watch 836 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 1: the inside. Uh they they they supposed to have a 837 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:13,839 Speaker 1: nice kid, uh on the inside, Uh playing for them 838 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: on the defense defensively so and Collins London is pronouncing 839 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: the right in London safety. Understand me. This dude is premier. Uh. 840 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: They give him enough space. Uh Uh, they give him 841 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: a littit not the Ed Reid or the Palomala type freedom, 842 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 1: you know, but it gives him enough room where he 843 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 1: can run up and be a great run defender. He 844 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,360 Speaker 1: can he can stay in the back end and and 845 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,400 Speaker 1: back down balls and get interceptions. He's a vicious tackler. 846 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:53,839 Speaker 1: So watch him a versus out run game and pass game. Uh. 847 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,759 Speaker 1: I think Eli Apple been banged up and they got 848 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: u other corner. It's a new corner. What come on, Fellas, 849 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:07,719 Speaker 1: what's the corner back there? Kurt? That's got um the 850 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: right Jenkins Jenkins j Nors Jenkins understand me. Uh, words 851 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:22,320 Speaker 1: have already been tossed out. If if they can stop 852 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,239 Speaker 1: our run game or slow it down because it was 853 00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 1: third last year and giving up eighty eight uh yards 854 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 1: a game. If they can stop or slow down our 855 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: run that puts deads into effect. Uh. I think they're 856 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 1: gonna try to make our quarterback throw that ball along. 857 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 1: They're gonna try to test his accuracy. They they know 858 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 1: he's a he likes to throw that short passes. He 859 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 1: likes to be safe. Uh. If they can get that 860 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:53,759 Speaker 1: run game manageable in their mind, then they want to 861 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 1: stop playing some some coverage plans for tricks with the 862 00:48:56,640 --> 00:49:02,680 Speaker 1: coverages and trying to get Yeah, eli Apple apparently practice full. Okay, 863 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 1: eli he practices full. And then you still got Camardi 864 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 1: there right, yes, so they they they secondary went from 865 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,760 Speaker 1: two years ago a suspect to Eli Apple start finding 866 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: his sea legs last year. Uh, Genards Jenkins is there? 867 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 1: Those are matchups you have to pay attention to. If 868 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:23,479 Speaker 1: they can stop run, if they don't stop our run, 869 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 1: and our guy is averaging right around four point five 870 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 1: five yards a carry, so we can keep the game balanced. 871 00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,719 Speaker 1: I don't worry about it. But if not, then all 872 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I was sending you, we're gonna push 873 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 1: this kid off of all off into George Bush. Yeah, 874 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,399 Speaker 1: around about full thirty five o'clock he got, so you're 875 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,600 Speaker 1: you're looking at him to take away the run they 876 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 1: got to and then make make Dak beat you with 877 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 1: his arm. They got. That happens, great, but you're not 878 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 1: gonna beat this with zeke Nah. They're not gonna let 879 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:56,239 Speaker 1: you beat them with zeke na. Zeke hab twenty five 880 00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 1: carriers and he's averaging on the three to four right 881 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 1: at four yards the carrot. They ain't scared of that. 882 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 1: The thing that scared you, by zekis if he catch 883 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,920 Speaker 1: the screen pass, if he break one for fifty to 884 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 1: sixty yards. Now you gotta resurrect everything you got, you 885 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 1: gotta bring by the Lawrence Taylor, them Marshal and everybody 886 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 1: else you know. So. But other than that, because I'm 887 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,280 Speaker 1: telling you, they got Harris, they got Bromny, they got 888 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,120 Speaker 1: all these guys in the middle. They got Olivier Vernon, 889 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,799 Speaker 1: who's not only a good pass rush who came on 890 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 1: strong forwards, then he's a great run defender. Jason, Pierre, 891 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:36,160 Speaker 1: Paul and and Vernon. The reason they can handle us 892 00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:39,239 Speaker 1: up front is because they set the edges. When it 893 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 1: said a lot of people don't understand if you got 894 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 1: two defensive events or two outside linebackers, that sets the 895 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 1: edges and pushes everything back up in the middle. All 896 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 1: you gotta all you gotta do is have guys that's 897 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 1: willing to run. Now say, tell everybody what's set in 898 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 1: the edge exactly. It's like when they're trying to run 899 00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 1: I play off the tackle or a sweep where they's 900 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:01,359 Speaker 1: also trying to get out. Why I way outside the 901 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 1: topic if you if you can't go there and you 902 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,800 Speaker 1: and we can just make you run inside for turning 903 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: them back outside. Yes, So set in the edge is 904 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 1: don't let anybody get outside of you. Yeah, if you 905 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 1: can do that right there now, Colin's come in big 906 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 1: now the extra safe to come in big because everything 907 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:24,000 Speaker 1: is smaller. What what what Every offensive coordinator would tell you. 908 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make you defend every inch of the field. 909 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,239 Speaker 1: That's why you if you have a play that works 910 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 1: a lot of times, people like, wait, why don't they 911 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 1: run the same play over and over? This the NFL. 912 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 1: This ain't bound against bur Burke now, so don't don't 913 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 1: don't work that way. This ain't Oklahoma versus the old 914 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:45,560 Speaker 1: days when they played tossing when any one no good. 915 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 1: This is the NFL. They're not gonna let you run 916 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 1: the same play over and over against them. They're gonna 917 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 1: find a way to stop it. So they got to 918 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:57,759 Speaker 1: make them set the edge. Uh. They got good linebackers, 919 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,879 Speaker 1: you know Canard and all of those guys. They got 920 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 1: good linebackers. They got a good secondary of better than 921 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:08,880 Speaker 1: average safety set corners are good. D line is good. 922 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: Now offensively their weakness is they they hadn't everybody said, 923 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:19,879 Speaker 1: well the weapons. I ain't buying into that. I want 924 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:23,840 Speaker 1: to see what Brandon Marshall do because he has a 925 00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 1: new quarterback. I want to see what Eli do because 926 00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,240 Speaker 1: he has a new wide receiver. It's just not that easy. 927 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 1: Defense you can just run and react. Offense is more 928 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 1: of a precision. They throw shorter rouses more precisely. They 929 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,760 Speaker 1: have to be fishing. I want to see if Brandon 930 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 1: Marshall really up to par I want to see if 931 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,160 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham really got his mind in the game or 932 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 1: he got his mind on his money. If he plays, Yeah, 933 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 1: he didn't practice. We just saw on TV where he 934 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:57,840 Speaker 1: did not practice it. You know, is he gonna be Perkins? Huh, 935 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 1: Aquar whatever his name? Yeah? Rings their number two. Well 936 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 1: see he's the third down guy, but he'll wind up 937 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 1: for getting Verena, wind up getting most of the snaps. Uh. 938 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 1: The question Martin, if if the Marcus Lawrence want to 939 00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:21,239 Speaker 1: start earning his new contract, he got he got the 940 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:24,240 Speaker 1: perfect dude. He his name is Eric Flowers. He prays 941 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:28,640 Speaker 1: health tap. Guess what if you want to make your 942 00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 1: money son here, you can get you two or three 943 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:35,000 Speaker 1: sacks off this kid. I saw him against the Stillers 944 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 1: Man and JJ watch a little brothers just went JJ Watson, Wow, 945 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 1: is that your matchup of the game to watch right there? 946 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,399 Speaker 1: That should be you know what they ain't gonna match up. 947 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:47,040 Speaker 1: That's like you route rolling down the road like two 948 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,359 Speaker 1: in the morning, you see a big splat hit your 949 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 1: window in your truck driver. That's what that should be 950 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 1: right there. That should be a disaster waiting to happen. Brothers. 951 00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,160 Speaker 1: Just amount of time. The reason I say three o'clock 952 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:01,279 Speaker 1: late at night because you just never knowing that big 953 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 1: old moth gonna hit you when back when it does, 954 00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 1: you see it everywhere. This is what we don't know 955 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 1: when the marks Lard should turn it on against Flowers. 956 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:14,439 Speaker 1: But somewhere he should go crazy. Him up Benson mayor Wall, 957 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: they should go crazy. Man. I'm interested to see this kid. 958 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 1: They drafted this Evan Ingram kid, the tight end. I've 959 00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 1: been hearing really good things out of him. You know 960 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:31,319 Speaker 1: what they The bottom line is pressure Eli make they 961 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 1: throwing everything short of pass is better River and I've 962 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,280 Speaker 1: heard the same thing about Big Ingram and all Israel. 963 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: But their offensive line has to show me, you can't 964 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:44,279 Speaker 1: throw everything short. You can't because short, short, short, and 965 00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:45,839 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're kicking the field goal. That's 966 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:49,280 Speaker 1: what kills us last year. Sure, we go seventy yards, 967 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,000 Speaker 1: we go sixty yards, we go fifty yard, We got 968 00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: nine points, they go score one touchdown, and Eli seems 969 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,359 Speaker 1: to if you can make him have happy feet, that's 970 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:01,080 Speaker 1: when it seems like he makes his errors. If you 971 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 1: let him drop, get set and hit those short to 972 00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:06,400 Speaker 1: medium passes, that's where he picks you apart, if you 973 00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:10,600 Speaker 1: get him nervous getting around his feet. The thing about 974 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:16,839 Speaker 1: it his old coach, his old offensive coordinator, Gilbride. If 975 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,320 Speaker 1: you go back and look at old film, Eli is 976 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:21,919 Speaker 1: at his best when he's throwing twelve yards and more, 977 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,359 Speaker 1: he's at his best. But he was getting them killed 978 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 1: because there was not replenishing the offensive line. So mcado 979 00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,480 Speaker 1: is a is a West Coast guy. So now everything 980 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,880 Speaker 1: comes out quicker, but they're not scoring as many points. 981 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:38,160 Speaker 1: They said it's the weapons. I said, it's a lack 982 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 1: of a run game.
