Coming into this season, you asked the question, 35 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 8: you know, for me, what would it take for this 36 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 8: defense to be special? And the biggest thing I drew 37 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 8: a circle around was the run defense. And you know, 38 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 8: you know, thankfully, we saw them perform well in that 39 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 8: capacity against the Giants, we saw them perform masterfully against 40 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 8: the Jets in that capacity, but it was still about 41 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 8: consistency and two outings does not consistency make. So then 42 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 8: you're going against the Cardinals team. Then, yeah, you know 43 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 8: what James Connor can do, and you know more can do. 44 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 8: But you want to believe that the Cowboys run defense 45 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 8: is showed up and that it's upgraded. But when you 46 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 8: allow two hundred and twenty two yards rushing and then 47 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 8: at halftime it was the most rushing yards allowed by 48 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 8: a Cowboys team since nineteen ninety one, that's not what 49 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 8: you want to see. That's not going to win the 50 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 8: game for you. So yeah, we can point at the 51 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 8: penalties as well. But for me, it's got to be 52 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 8: the run defense. 53 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 9: Cowboys spread zone problems were more about what Arizona was 54 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 9: doing to them than really what the Cowboys were trying 55 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,959 Speaker 9: to do to Arizona. There weren't clean routes, there weren't 56 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 9: clean reads. They had some opportunities where some miss blocks 57 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 9: along the way, maybe some unfortunate play calling. I take 58 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 9: example of the option to seed lamb. You leave two 59 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 9: guys on blocked. It's a minus negative play there. So 60 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 9: really more about what Arizona was doing to them scheme 61 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 9: wise than really what the Cowboys were doing execution wise. 62 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 10: A whole lot of confusion had something. They went into 63 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 10: that game very well prepared. They looked confused at times 64 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 10: on both sides of the ball. But just to that point, 65 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 10: what I was initially going to say is that the 66 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 10: Cardinals were able to exploit their weaknesses, their their weak 67 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 10: points on both sides of the ball. You talk about 68 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 10: the running defense, the run defense, and you talk about 69 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 10: the red zone issues that they've had, and this is 70 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 10: going to serve as a game that opposing teams are 71 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 10: going to watch and rewatch and try to copy and 72 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 10: do what they were able to do to the Cowboys 73 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 10: and try to attack their weak points. 74 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 7: This seemed very much to me, Brian, like what you 75 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 7: mentioned last week, the desperate team theory. After the game, 76 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 7: I was literally just watching. We have TV monitors in 77 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 7: here on an NFL network. They're showing some replacement game, 78 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 7: and I didn't realize at the end of the game 79 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 7: they actually gave their the coach a gatorade bath, which 80 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 7: again tells you how important that game was for them. 81 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 5: They went into that game, yes, yes. 82 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, exactly, a week three game gatorade bath your coach 83 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 7: like that tells you how desperate they were, and they 84 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 7: came out and played like it, and it tells you 85 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 7: maybe how flat the Cowboys were. I did hear that 86 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 7: at least by one player in the locker room yesterday, 87 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 7: that they maybe it may have been a little flat, 88 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 7: may not have had the same level of intensity that 89 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 7: you've expected from them, or that they've shown in the 90 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 7: first two weeks. And I do think that showed up 91 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 7: yesterday and in the way those two teams played and 92 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 7: the way they approached that game. 93 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 5: All Right, here's what we're gonna do. 94 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 7: I'm gonna go through I have a list a list 95 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 7: of five things that I think went wrong for the 96 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 7: Cowboys yesterday. I'm gonna throw them out for you guys, 97 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 7: and I'd like for you to tell me a little 98 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 7: bit more about what you saw and why things went 99 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 7: wrong in this area. Patrick, you mentioned the first one 100 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 7: run defense yesterday. Here with the numbers, CAW, I mean 101 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 7: the Cardinals had thirty rushes for two hundred and twenty 102 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 7: two yards a seven point four average. Here's another interesting 103 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 7: stat I noted. Check this out when eight men eight 104 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 7: plus men were in the box. 105 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 5: So this is a stack box. 106 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 7: This is when you expect that you should be able 107 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 7: to stop the run because you're paying inordinate amount of 108 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 7: attention to stopping the ru They still between Connor and Dobbs, 109 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 7: they ran twelve times for ninety five yards seven point 110 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 7: nine average on the ground when the Cowboys stacked the box. 111 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 7: What did you see yesterday from the Cowboys run defense 112 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 7: or runoff run defense? 113 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: Sorry, I mean you were just losing one on one battles. 114 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 8: I mean you you For example, the more touchdown, I 115 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 8: mean that red Sea just absolutely parted. He went untouched 116 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 8: and it was just a bunch of green in front 117 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 8: of him. From there and then he rattled off the touchdown, 118 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 8: and the same thing for some of those runs by Connor. 119 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 8: It's again, it's a run defense that has shown us 120 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 8: that it was short up. But then yesterday they just 121 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 8: got beat straight up, They got outpowered, they got out executed. 122 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 8: It was the Cardinals that was basically teaching class on yesterday, 123 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 8: and it shouldn't have been that way. And I mean, 124 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,239 Speaker 8: you could talk about the three offensive lining that didn't 125 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 8: play yesterday, and yeah there were pressures there, and we 126 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 8: will talk about that here shortly, But for me, if 127 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 8: you go back and you look at the film, it 128 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 8: just really boiled down to the Cardinals offensive line were 129 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 8: winning their assignments and winning their keys far more often 130 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 8: than the Cowboys were, and those lanes were just opening 131 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 8: up and the running backs didn't have much work to do. 132 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 8: If you look at the yards after contact, there was 133 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 8: a lot of that. But then some of those big 134 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 8: plays didn't even have contact. It was just hand off 135 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 8: and go, and you just can't have that if you're 136 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:20,799 Speaker 8: trying to be a contender. 137 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 9: Arizona took advantage of Dallas's aggressiveness, especially at linebacker. You 138 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 9: had guys overrunning the ball and then the cutbacks happened 139 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 9: on Patrick was talking about the long run by More 140 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 9: Dallas's front was never set. The two defensive tackles were 141 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 9: actually moving. They were trying to get them over. They 142 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 9: were to the left, they were trying to move them 143 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 9: over to the right. They couldn't get them over. And 144 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 9: once they got them over, ball was snapped and now 145 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 9: you're in a trouble there. Sam Williams gets caught up 146 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 9: the field there and now all of a sudden, though, 147 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 9: you got guys pen to the inside. 148 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 3: Kurse saw the ball break late. 149 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 9: I don't think he saw where the run was coming from, 150 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 9: so his angle was off and then that kind of 151 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 9: threw him out of the way. But a lot of 152 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 9: this against the run defense stuff is Patrick's wright. There's 153 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 9: a physicality element to that to the game. But if 154 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 9: you're supposed to fit in certain gaps, if you're supposed 155 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 9: to play your assignment, I'll give you example. Donovid Wilson 156 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 9: had a bad day early in that game of not 157 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 9: fitting assignments. You know him the long run where Dobbs 158 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 9: takes off on the Reid option stuff. You know they 159 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 9: get a double team block on the outside. But what 160 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 9: happens is Wilson goes too far to the inside. He's 161 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 9: responsible be an edge player. Micah had a chance but 162 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 9: kind of got caught no man's land there. So all 163 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 9: of a sudden, now you've got a no man's land player, 164 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 9: you got a double team on the outside, and then 165 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 9: you got a guy taking the wrong angle that's going 166 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 9: to lead to a forty four yard run. That happened 167 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 9: to the Cowboys way too often in that game yesterday. 168 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 10: Well, you talk about a defense that what we've seen 169 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 10: in the first two weeks, We've talked about it over 170 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 10: and over, how great. And you see them everybody so 171 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 10: in sync, everybody making place from the top two the bottom, 172 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 10: and then all of a sudden they're not able to adjust, 173 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 10: they make the right changes and be on the same page. Gilmour, 174 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 10: that was disappointing to see certain plays that he was 175 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 10: playing where he looked slow and he didn't look like 176 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 10: a veteran presence that you've seen so far. And again 177 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 10: Micah Parsons multiple occasions, what was going on? Just like confused. 178 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 10: I forgot who was telling him, no, you're you have 179 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 10: to line up there? Who was that? 180 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 9: Well, him and vander esh were having a conversation, but 181 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 9: like during the game, it was there was a couple 182 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 9: of times where he rushed and it was hands like 183 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,439 Speaker 9: pre snap where hands looking inside. 184 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 3: What's going on and you're what's what's the call? 185 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 10: So those things should not be happening. Those are easy 186 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 10: fakes and those are the things that kind of baffled 187 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 10: me a little bit, like to why, why, how did 188 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 10: that happen? And it wasn't just once, it was in 189 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 10: multiple occasions. 190 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 9: We talked about it a little bit last week though. 191 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 9: What Arizona does to you, the fact that they had 192 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 9: a forty five yard run from a wide receiver as 193 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 9: a running back, They're gonna put you a lot of 194 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 9: different problems. They're gonna make you have to think your 195 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 9: way through some things. And I think that the maybe 196 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 9: some lack of communication, the lack of execution, the lack 197 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 9: of physicality, There was a lot of things. Dan Quinn 198 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 9: had a bad day yesterday. His defense had a bad day. 199 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 9: Let's be fair, we give dan Quinn a lot of credit. 200 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 9: We also need to tell dan Quinn's defense wasn't ready 201 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 9: to play the first half of that football game yesterday, 202 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 9: you know, and then some plays in the second half 203 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 9: they weren't ready to play, you know, so that's on 204 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 9: them to try and fix these things. 205 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 3: But if you're telling. 206 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 9: Me there's confusion and lack of communication and all that 207 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 9: on the field, you know, in certain key situations, that 208 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 9: is a problem throughout the defense. 209 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, you were. 210 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 7: We were talking last week when we were talking about 211 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 7: the breakdown about how much this team likes to do 212 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 7: different kinds of things in their running game. 213 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 5: There's a lot of pulling. 214 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 7: Guards and pen and pull, so, yeah, that kind of stuff, 215 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 7: and yesterday the Cowboys are getting beat a lot on 216 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 7: those kinds of plays. It wasn't wh you're running straight 217 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 7: out of the Cowboys defense is pretty adept at stop that. 218 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 7: It was those other kind of plays. That first play, 219 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 7: that first long run by Dobbs, to me, set the 220 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 7: tone because it was exactly what we talked about about 221 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 7: Micah and Philadelphia. What happened against Philadelphia him kind of freezing, 222 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 7: he read it the wrong way. He well, he went 223 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 7: for the running back, which and I don't know if 224 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 7: you necessarily call that a bad reading, but what you 225 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 7: notice is they went back to that play several more times. 226 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 7: And what Micah did, he didn't rush, He just waited 227 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 7: and he waited until the ball was he knew exactly 228 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 7: where the ball was going, and then he reacted to it, 229 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 7: which is how you're supposed. 230 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 5: To play that. But I think that's kind of the 231 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 5: point of it is. 232 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 7: I think yesterday there were lots of moments where different 233 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 7: players just had, you know, moments, They just had moments 234 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 7: where they didn't get to their assignment, they overran a play, 235 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 7: they just made mistakes. 236 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 5: And it's what we talked about from the offensive line 237 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 5: last week. 238 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 7: There just there were so many just little mistakes that 239 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 7: everybody was making these little mistakes. 240 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 9: That job one doesn't and the one guy gets exposed. 241 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 9: The two guys get exposed when everybody else and you 242 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 9: need him. You need to play the scheme that way. 243 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 5: All right, Let's talk about the penalties. 244 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 7: Yes, that's another area that we thought going into this year, 245 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 7: or at least so far this year, the Cowboys had 246 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 7: been really good about avoiding penalties. Yesterday they have thirteen 247 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 7: penalties for one hundred and seven yards. It was just 248 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 7: a day when the flags were out and obviously the crew. 249 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 7: You could say what you want about the crew and 250 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 7: how many of those calls may have been bogus or not, 251 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 7: the fact of the matter is that's how they were 252 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 7: calling the game, and at some point you have to 253 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 7: adjust to how they're calling the game. But what did 254 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 7: you guys think about the penalty? 255 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 3: I think they had an issue yesterday with Froholt the center. 256 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 9: He's really good at his ability to move his head, 257 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 9: and they were I think in this game they were 258 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 9: trying to judge that when he moves his head down, 259 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 9: he's going to snap the ball, and there were a 260 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 9: couple of times where he faked like he was and 261 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 9: then now Dallas Is they were playing that game where 262 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 9: they were watching him and then trying to get make 263 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 9: their time their rush or they're getting off the ball 264 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 9: when he moved his head. That caused some problems for 265 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 9: some of the off side stuff they're dealing with the least, 266 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 9: like on a Jordan Lewis, you know, holding down field, 267 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 9: and so those were legitimate penalties, you know, I mean, 268 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 9: you can't contact a guy past that five yards and 269 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 9: you can't grab the guy. So there were some things 270 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 9: that they were doing yesterday in this game where they 271 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 9: were trying to jump the snap or just you know, hey, 272 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 9: you can't hold a guy down the field like that. 273 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: Don't leave the game in the hands of the officials. 274 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 8: It just do not, because then you put yourself in 275 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 8: situations where you need the DPI called. When you target 276 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 8: CD Lamb on the right end of the end zone, 277 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 8: you need the dp You need the flag not picked 278 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 8: up when they flag for DPI on the gallop target. 279 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 8: That's putting the game in the hands of the officials. 280 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 8: And then you see what happened after those two plays. 281 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 8: You don't get the DPR call against CD Lamb, they 282 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 8: go down and score, right, you had a big sixty 283 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 8: nine yarder on that touchdown drive from the Cardinals. That 284 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 8: were subsequent to that, you get the Dak Prescott interception 285 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 8: after the gallop DPI was picked up. So don't put 286 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 8: the game in the hands of the officials. Fact is, 287 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 8: and I have problems with the officials as well in 288 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 8: that game. Talk about those two plays, but also you 289 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 8: know Ceedee Lamb and him being called for offensive pass 290 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 8: and the fans where to me, that was a bang 291 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 8: bang football play between those two guys. 292 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 2: Fine. 293 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 8: Nonetheless, to Brian's point, the large majority of these penalties 294 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 8: are one hundred percent accountable to the Cowboys, and it 295 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 8: can't happen thirteen in force for one hundred and seven yards. 296 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 8: To myntality, they had almost twenty that were flagged, but 297 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 8: of course not all in forced. That is a ridiculously 298 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 8: insane and appropriate number for a team that is trying 299 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 8: to be a Super Bowl contender. One thing that stood 300 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 8: out some of the a lot of these penalties stalled 301 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 8: or just outright killed drives Cavante Turpett. You have your 302 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 8: defense who's eventually going to get tired from being on 303 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 8: the field. 304 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 2: They force a punt. Turpin returns the ball. 305 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 8: Fifty one yards, that gets negated by Devin Harper, and 306 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 8: then tack on another ten yards on top of that. 307 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 8: And then on that drive, Dak Prescott and the Cowboys 308 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 8: they start recovering, they start moving on that drive, They're like, okay, resiliency, 309 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 8: and then. 310 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 2: You get the holding on too many. Doga makes it 311 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 2: three and thirteen. 312 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 8: Ferguson gets ten yards, but the Cowboys fail on fourth 313 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 8: and third penalties. Penalties, penalties. It has to be cleaned up. 314 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 8: There was a problem in twenty twenty two. We talked 315 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 8: about it. Coming into twenty twenty three. It was for 316 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 8: the most part rained in the first two weeks, but 317 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 8: man laundry Dad yesterday. You cannot continue to do that 318 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 8: if you really want to be a contender in this conference. 319 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 10: Yeah, there's just no discipline, and it goes back to 320 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 10: the whole not being fully prepared in my opinion. But 321 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 10: I think this is where I'm confused though, because I 322 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 10: don't think the Cowboys were two in the clouds and 323 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 10: two in their own heads. Like as far as preparation 324 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 10: during the week, you know, when we go in the 325 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 10: locker room or talk to these players, that's not the 326 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 10: vibe that I was getting from them, and I know 327 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 10: it was asked to Dak Presca. You know, the media 328 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 10: puts them on a pedestal when they're on top and 329 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 10: then completely slaughter them when they're down. But as far 330 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 10: as what they're doing, my vibe wasn't that they're not 331 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 10: taking this game serious, they're not prepared. They were focused. 332 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 10: So that's where I'm confused why the lack of like discipline, preparation, 333 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 10: the lack of being insane communication occur in this game, 334 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 10: because I do think that they were focused throughout the week. 335 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 8: They were they were. I think it's a you know, 336 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 8: evidence of two things. One, it's there were some discipline 337 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 8: issues obviously as far as not committing the penalties, you know, 338 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 8: letting go of a guy, not getting a holding call 339 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 8: and not getting a block in the back one. I mean, 340 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 8: come on, fifty one yards. But at the same time, 341 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 8: as the game went on, there was frustration. I felt 342 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 8: like there was frustration that was occurring on both sides 343 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 8: of the ball for Dallas. And the problem is is 344 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 8: when you're already trying your best to remain self disciplined 345 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 8: in your individual assignments, but then you start to get 346 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 8: beat here and then you don't get this call go 347 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 8: your way, and then you start to shrink a little bit. Well, 348 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 8: then that this that self discipline starts to lessen and 349 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 8: now here's now you're playing sloppy. So now what happens 350 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 8: is that the guy next to you, he's like, oh, well, 351 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 8: this just as in our day penalty. 352 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 2: So then it. 353 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 8: Starts to spiral and snowball, and before you knew it, 354 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 8: we're sitting in the press box in this flag flag 355 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 8: flag someplace. There were multiple flags, multiple infractions against the Cowboys, 356 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 8: and you're sitting there like, are we kidding as seriously 357 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 8: as this was happening, because, particularly to Ambar's. 358 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: Point, last week. 359 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 8: These guys were focused, and we thought that they were 360 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 8: coming in written emotional wave from losing Trevon Diggs. But 361 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know if it's the body's buried 362 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 8: in the desert, whatever is going on out there, because 363 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 8: the game was weird from the outset with the Tyrone Smith. 364 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 2: You know, situation, and. 365 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 8: You know he's active, but he's and he's named the captain, 366 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 8: but then ultimately he doesn't play, and then it was 367 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 8: just ominous from there. 368 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 2: So I don't know. Too many bodies in the desert. 369 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, it was. I don't know. 370 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 7: I will say this, I don't know that we can 371 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 7: say one way or the other that they were focused 372 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 7: or not focused. I certainly don't have any insight to 373 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 7: see how much they were on their iPads watching and preparing. 374 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 5: What I can say is that as you watch. 375 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 7: That game, there were moments where you were like, man, 376 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 7: they just didn't seem like they knew where they needed 377 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 7: to be, and that is usually. 378 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 5: Something that you point to. 379 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 7: What was the preparation like, So again, I don't know 380 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 7: whether they prepared as hard or as much as they 381 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 7: had prepared the other two weeks or less. 382 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 5: I don't know that. 383 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 7: I just know that yesterday they didn't look like they 384 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 7: were as disciplined and knowing where they needed to be 385 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 7: and being there consistently, and that's why they got lit 386 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 7: up in a number of different areas during that game. 387 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 8: You had penalties that killed your offensive drives, and then 388 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 8: you had penalties that extended their offensive drives. Talk about 389 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 8: the penalty on Lewis, the DPI and deron Bland. Yeah, 390 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 8: I mean, you can't have both of those things occurring 391 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 8: at the same time, Like something has to be clean, 392 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 8: and just nothing was clean in that game yesterday. 393 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 7: All Right, we're gonna take our first break. When we 394 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 7: come back, we're gonna talk about this red zone offense. 395 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 7: It was not just a problem this week. It's been 396 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 7: an ongoing problem. We'll talk about that when we come back. 397 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 7: Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio. 398 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 11: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the 399 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 11: cheatah Savannah.

We are talking about the 458 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 7: Cowboys loss yesterday, first loss of the season. They lose 459 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 7: to Arizona twenty eight to sixteen. Let's talk about one 460 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 7: other problem that popped up red zone offense. 461 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 5: Yesterday. 462 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 7: Cowboys were one of five twenty percent in the red zone. 463 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 7: Get this. 464 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 5: They were zero for two when they were in goal 465 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 5: to go situations. Yeah, that is not good. 466 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 7: But this has been an ongoing issue. Is this something 467 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 7: we talked about last week that it was a problem. 468 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 7: It didn't kill them last week, but it certainly was 469 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 7: a problem. What happened yesterday with regards to the red 470 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 7: zone offense. 471 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 8: I mean it's a like you said, oh for two, 472 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 8: goal for goal with goal to go. They had an 473 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 8: unsuccessful goal to go against the Jets. Yeah, against the 474 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 8: Jets with the hand with the hinder shot, and you 475 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 8: know Rico didn't get in either. 476 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 2: I mean, it's a problem. 477 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 8: One question is where your wide receivers in the red zone, 478 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 8: where your wrote receiver targets in the red zone. As 479 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 8: far as being able to produce those those touchdowns that 480 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 8: are needed, I mean, you don't have any white receiver 481 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 8: touchdowns at all through three weeks of football. That is 482 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 8: something that the Cowboys need to look at and try 483 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 8: to figure out what's going on there. 484 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 2: So that's a large part of it. 485 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 8: But it also goes to you know, how comfortable or 486 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 8: uncomfortable are the Cowboys right now with this Texas Coast offense. 487 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 8: We still don't know what it looks like. You just 488 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 8: got Brandon Cooks back, but we were talking about this 489 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 8: during the break. You didn't have three of your starting 490 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 8: offensive lineman. Tyler Smith came back, but Tyrant Smith didn't play, 491 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 8: Tyler Biadis didn't play, Zach Martin didn't play. 492 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: Was there, you know, a little bit? Was there? 493 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 8: A little bit less of a confidence in those in 494 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 8: that start in five yesterday that maybe has had McCarthy 495 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 8: kind of scale back on what he might have called Otherwise, 496 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 8: if you had your front five out there, or at 497 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 8: least four of your front five like they had the 498 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 8: first two weeks, a lot to be figured out there, 499 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 8: And to be honest with you, I haven't figured it 500 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 8: out specifically just yet, because if you look at it, 501 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 8: they should be scoring on on some of these plays, 502 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 8: but they're just not. So when it happens like that, 503 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 8: and I can't yet figure out what the problem is. 504 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 2: I'm always going to lean back on. 505 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 8: The execution of it because a lot of times that's 506 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 8: probably what's keeping you out of the end zone. Now, 507 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 8: some play calling is going to be mixed in as 508 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 8: well as far as accountability goes. But I mean, I 509 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 8: think if they execute on some of these plays, for example, 510 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 8: the hindershot play, if he makes that vision go, but yeah, 511 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 8: I mean you can they. 512 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 2: Should have red zone points. 513 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 8: And the officials also took a couple of way, but 514 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 8: that's not the only reason they don't have them. 515 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 9: Grand twenty four plays in the red zone is what 516 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 9: you did the screenplay to doabtle for a touchdown. Well executed, 517 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 9: well called. Nice job of blocking out in front. That's 518 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 9: something that you know they need to kind of look 519 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 9: at that little bit more. But a red zone screen 520 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 9: is always a good thing to call there. One time 521 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 9: they run a waggle to the right with pres Scott 522 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 9: and Arizona has five defenders to cover three. No chance 523 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 9: on the play. Fourth down, Arizona sells out on a blitz. 524 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 9: It's picked up line. Lets the furthest man from the 525 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 9: ball go. That's usually the responsiblity of the quarterback. You 526 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 9: don't want to let anybody inside, So squeeze it down. 527 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 9: Furthest guy from the ball. Quarterback, that's your guy. We 528 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 9: can't block him. Prescott's got to know that he can't. 529 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 9: He's got to know I'm gonna get a blitzer in 530 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 9: my face. I can see him right there. They try 531 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 9: to run the ball inside the cooks and you know, 532 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 9: Prescott feels the pressure throws the ball too high. But 533 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 9: he's got to know he's got an unblocked blitzer over there. 534 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 9: Because the way the line had signed slid that way. 535 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 9: You had a couple of times there where Prescott drops 536 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 9: the snap on the play ferguson Lamb run into each other. 537 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 9: They got four Cardinals to cover. Three Cowboys receive it. 538 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 9: A dooga gets called for holding on the play. You know, 539 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 9: this is the kind of stuff that This is the 540 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 9: kind of stuff you're dealing with. They run that I mentioned, 541 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 9: They run the option to Lamb. They you know, no 542 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 9: one's fooled on the play. White and a Shashery are there. 543 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 9: They stay at home to make the tackle. Both are 544 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 9: on block trips left Lamb single. Prescott tries to hit 545 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 9: him with the fade. He doesn't make the play. Could 546 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 9: there have been a pass interference there? Yeah, it could 547 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 9: have been. Didn't call it, didn't work out your way? 548 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 14: You know. 549 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 3: The thing about it is and one more final thing. 550 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 9: I just looked down at my notes. Prescott to Gallop 551 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 9: on the fade. He's got Wilson beat off the line. 552 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 9: Throw the ball out there, Throw the ball out and up. 553 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 9: That guy's gonna go make that play for you. Don't 554 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 9: throw the ball short. 555 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 3: You know. 556 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, the flag gets picked up and then you have 557 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 9: the you know, then you have the next plays the interception, 558 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 9: you know, which effectively into the game. But you know, 559 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 9: you run the ball. There's some things that they do well. 560 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 9: I think this was really more about Arizona's red zone 561 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 9: defense than it was about Dallas's offense. 562 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 3: In my opinion. 563 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 9: But there were some things that that, you know, like 564 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 9: I say, the routes aren't always clean, but there's also 565 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 9: some self inflicted stuff there that goes on. But you know, 566 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 9: I mentioned four Cardinals to cover three Cowboys, five Cowboys, 567 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 9: five Cardinals to cover threes. You know you've got to 568 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 9: find a way to not let that happen in a game. 569 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 10: Okay, my heart is fully racing right now, so let 570 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 10: me give a disclaimer. Sorry if any insults come out, 571 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 10: if anybody from that side of the building is listening, 572 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 10: because these are just my emotions speaking right now, So apologies. 573 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 10: But you know, I'm looking at this, at the stats, 574 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 10: and I'm tired of saying like, on paper, they have this, 575 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 10: they have the talent. On paper, they look good. They 576 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 10: should be being a lot more effective than what they are. 577 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 10: And it could be that the Cardinals and they did 578 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 10: a good job. Credit to them, for sure, But it's 579 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 10: not week three. Just it's not just week three. We 580 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 10: saw glimpses of it week one, week two, so we 581 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 10: know this is a your current issue. So my problem 582 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 10: is where is all this creativity that you hide from 583 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 10: the media sometimes and you try to act all again, 584 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 10: sorry emotions, I'm sorry, no offense, But what are you 585 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 10: trying to hide because I'm not seeing it. Are you 586 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,719 Speaker 10: saving it for when forty nine ers or when we 587 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 10: get to compete in the playoffs? I don't know, but 588 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 10: it has to click at some point. I think it 589 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 10: was the lack of creativity. And you talk about the 590 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 10: offensive line. You had three of your starters out and 591 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 10: I get it, that's a big loss for anybody. But 592 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 10: at the same time, you saw what you were able 593 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 10: to do. You were still being able to move the 594 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 10: offense down the field. It wasn't as bad as I 595 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 10: thought it could. It was gonna be again, it wasn't perfect, 596 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 10: but you were still being able to move the ball 597 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 10: around and do some things. But then you get to 598 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 10: the red zone and you get stuck once again. You 599 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 10: got a mobile quarterback that can run, that has the 600 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 10: pheaz for it, you're not using him. You have the 601 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 10: running backs that you know what you can do, and 602 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 10: we've seen it before where maybe you get an extra 603 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 10: push from somebody else helping you out. Just push through 604 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 10: for those extra yards. You have the tight ends, you 605 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 10: got Gallup who's been having a good game. I thought 606 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 10: Brandon Cooks was gonna be the guy that comes in 607 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 10: here and clicks again. I thought this whole game was 608 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 10: going to be completely different, thinking we were gonna have 609 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 10: some linements in there and everything. But when you talk 610 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 10: about just the talent the skill sets that they currently 611 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 10: have on the roster, and you're not able to really 612 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 10: take advantage of that and put everybody in their best 613 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 10: position and really utilize those weapons. Turpin, you've used them before. 614 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 10: Where was that you have? Duce Duce. We've been talking 615 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 10: it up all through training camp, pre season. The first 616 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 10: two weeks we've seen glimpses of it, but yet you're 617 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 10: not really trying to use them in a game that 618 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 10: you absolutely needed to, where your defense is not playing 619 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 10: the way that they should and now you have to 620 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 10: really take advantage and perform offensively, and it's not happening. 621 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 7: You know what's interesting about that is I actually think 622 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 7: I actually think offensively, they were more creative in games 623 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 7: one and two than they were yesterday. And I don't 624 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 7: know if it's because they felt like they didn't need 625 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 7: to necessarily have that same level of creativity. 626 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 3: But we saw them and maybe it was. 627 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 2: Maybe it was. 628 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 7: But that's also where I would say, should you be 629 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 7: even a little bit more creative when you're a little 630 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 7: worried about them? Should you have a few more guys 631 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 7: that you get involved. Should you be running, you know, 632 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 7: using Turpin in his speed to maybe use some end 633 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 7: rounds or some jet sweeps, like you should be looking 634 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 7: for other ways to keep the opposing defense off balance 635 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 7: if you're worried about going straight at them because you 636 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 7: just don't know if your offensive line is gonna hold up. 637 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 5: That would be my thought. 638 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 7: Maybe you went the other way and said, let's be 639 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 7: a little less creative and let's just try to stick 640 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 7: to what we do, and maybe maybe that'll be another. 641 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 9: They had a couple of no gains where they brought 642 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 9: Lamb and I'm just saying, you know, just when you 643 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 9: start talking about running in the line and maybe not 644 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 9: trust him. But they had a couple of runs where Ferguson, 645 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 9: they're running the ball going left and Ferguson gets beat inside. 646 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 9: This guy makes a tackle and they bring Polar or 647 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 9: they bring Lamb in motion and he's supposed to block 648 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 9: the linebacker and he doesn't block him and it's a 649 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 9: no game there. So I mean they're like they're designing 650 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 9: plays as creative as you no, but they're trying to 651 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 9: run plays. I felt like there was some times when 652 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 9: they ran the ball down there they were able to 653 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 9: get some traction. I think the passing game is what 654 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 9: let them down. And honestly, I think this is going 655 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 9: to sound bad because we all talk about these tight ends. 656 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 9: I think he missed Dalton Schultz down there. I think 657 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,959 Speaker 9: he missed somebody that has an ability to know how 658 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 9: to play in space and kind of work his way 659 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 9: around and find his way to get open because the 660 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 9: receivers are struggling to get open. And then you know, 661 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 9: we haven't seen you know in some of the games. 662 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 9: I mean we had was it Ferguson or Hendershot that 663 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 9: had the drop in the one game, but you know, down. 664 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 3: In the red zone. 665 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 9: But I just the receivers are just not if it's 666 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 9: not a fade or something like that, that they're not 667 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 9: doing anything to win. And I think that's but you 668 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 9: might miss a guy like Schultz that kind of understands 669 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 9: how to get lost, how to open himself open and 670 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:21,959 Speaker 9: give Dak the opportunity to throw the ball well. 671 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 8: With this offensive line, Initially it looked like they were 672 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 8: probably going to lose you the game because Dak Prescott 673 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 8: had only been sacked once through the first two weeks. 674 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 8: He gets sacked two times fairly early in the game, 675 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 8: and then you're wondering. You're like, oh, well, is this 676 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 8: a Clayborne situation? Is this the Burning of Atlanta? But 677 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 8: then they kind of locked in and for the most part, 678 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 8: did as much as they could. Because if you look 679 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 8: at like the Rico Dowdle scoring scoring drive, Tony Pollard 680 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 8: was like Bam handoff, handoff, handoff, and they were effective 681 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 8: handoffs plus eight plus five plus six plus eight, and 682 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 8: then you know, you hit Daldo in the flat for 683 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 8: the quick and then he does the rest of the 684 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 8: heavy lifting. So the offensive line they didn't lose you 685 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 8: the game. I will say that it does feel more 686 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 8: like this Texas Coast offense, whatever it might end up being, 687 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 8: at the moment, it's not taking the shot enough shots 688 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 8: down for there were a couple of shots taken downfield, 689 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 8: like CD Lamb and Michael gallup in and I actually 690 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 8: do think Jake Ferguson performed well yesterday for the most part. 691 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 2: I mean, he had a pretty big day. 692 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 8: When it comes to the receiving corps, Michael Gallup obviously 693 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 8: had a big day, but this was the biggest day 694 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 8: thus far for the tight end unit and it was 695 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 8: because of Jake Ferguson. So I don't know that they 696 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 8: missed on showts in that capacity when. 697 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 3: You had in the red zone, they missed Schultz. 698 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 2: Well that's fair. 699 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: I mean in the red zone. 700 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 9: I mean, how many touchdowns did him and z Cap 701 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 9: and I'm not even including Zeke in this thing, but 702 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 9: how many touchdowns did Schultz have down there? 703 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 2: You know? 704 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 9: Where where are you getting where? Who is getting opened 705 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 9: down there? In three games? Who is getting open to 706 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 9: be able to make these plays? 707 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 2: You know? 708 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 3: And the thing that you know when you start to talk. 709 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 9: About, like I said, this this offense, if they're so 710 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 9: focused on not making our creative turnovers or bad situations 711 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 9: from deb for Dak and they're not, and they're doing 712 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 9: it in a way not to push the ball down 713 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 9: the field, And this is what this offense is going 714 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 9: to be. 715 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 3: We might be in it for a little bit of 716 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 3: a long year. 717 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 9: You know, when it comes to if they don't if 718 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 9: they're not willing to run more routes. 719 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 3: If everything is underneath and quick and all. 720 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 9: That, you know you're going to eventually have to take 721 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 9: some shots down the field. 722 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 3: And I get it. 723 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 9: If you don't trust your offensive line, then max protect 724 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 9: that thing, keep back in, keep tight ends in, and 725 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 9: then launch it and see if you can win on 726 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 9: the outside. But everything yesterday and Mike and the postgame 727 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 9: talked about, oh, they're playing their safeties deep. Yeah, they 728 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 9: rotated their safeties. They did a lot of disguise. One up, 729 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 9: one back, they'd rotate. There was a little bit of 730 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 9: a deep drop. Arizona was worried that the ball was 731 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 9: going to go down the field. But if you're going 732 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 9: to play the Cowboys, it does look like the Cowboys 733 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 9: are willing to throw the ball down the field right now. 734 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 9: It just doesn't look like that they're going to take 735 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 9: that that shot or two. There were no routes where 736 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 9: it was threatening the Arizona secondary. 737 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 8: I would also say, and they did a good job 738 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 8: of at least getting We talked about where was Deuce 739 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 8: Vaughn in this in this picture against the Cardinals. Hunter 740 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,479 Speaker 8: Lipkey got some good burn yesterday he showed a lot 741 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 8: of versatility. So if we're talking about red zone execution, 742 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 8: let's let's get Hunter Lipkey and. 743 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 3: Well they tried to. They did the one man screened 744 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 3: again they did. 745 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 9: You know, they just didn't get the blocks down the 746 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 9: field like the tight ends last week against the Jets 747 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 9: got the blocks. They didn't get the block. They tried 748 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 9: it in the red zone. That's you know, talked about creativity. 749 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 9: That's a good little play that they have. You know, 750 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 9: get Hunter and and and Doubtle out and then throwing 751 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 9: the ball and then try and get a block. I mean, 752 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 9: they got some positive yards out of it, but you know, 753 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 9: it's it just man, it just seemed like that Arizona 754 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 9: was just everything that Dallas tried to do, the waggles, 755 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 9: anything in the red zone. 756 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 3: It was plastered, plastered, plastered. Nobody, nobody running free in 757 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 3: that game. 758 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 7: I would like to see I agree with you, Patrick, 759 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 7: I would like to see Lipkey lip Key get a 760 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 7: few more opportunities those we saw yesday on third and short. 761 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 7: Thing was third and short nine nine yards. Yeah, and 762 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 7: he might is, I won't say might be. I think 763 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 7: he is their most physical back. And if you want 764 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 7: to replace maybe what you lost with not having Zeke. 765 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 7: I think he's a guy that maybe can provide that 766 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 7: for you and give you a little more. I do too, 767 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 7: but I think I'm talking about actually moving people, and 768 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 7: when it's not blocked up, right, can you still figure 769 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 7: out a way to get there. I think I might 770 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 7: have a little more I may want to see. I 771 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,320 Speaker 7: do want to see more of lip Key having that 772 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 7: opportunity than what I've seen so far from some of 773 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 7: those other guys. 774 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 5: All Right, we're gonna take our final break. We'll come back. 775 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 7: We've got to talk about some of the explosive plays 776 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 7: that happened yesterday with the with the Arizona Cardinal offense, 777 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 7: and we might talk a little bit about that offensive line, 778 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 7: talk about Adova and how he performed. 779 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 5: Will be back, Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio. 780 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 11: Todd thought it would be secure to jog and the 781 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 11: cheat of Savannah.

We're going through 831 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 7: what went wrong for the Cowboys yesterday and the first 832 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 7: loss of the season. Let's talk about explosive plays. These 833 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 7: are plays of twenty plus yards on the ground. They 834 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 7: gave up one, two, three, four, a forty four yard 835 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 7: rush to Dobbs, a twenty yard rush to Connor, forty 836 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 7: five yard rush to Moore and that was a TD, 837 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 7: and then a twenty six yard run to Connor. In 838 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 7: the passing game, they gave up a twenty three yard 839 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 7: to Brown and then another sixty nine yarder to Wilson. 840 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,959 Speaker 5: What was the deal with the big plays yesterday? Because 841 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 5: that definitely has not been a hallmark of this defense. 842 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 8: No, that's with more or let's help bury them. I mean, 843 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 8: you can talk about the penalties, and rightfully so, but 844 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 8: like you said, it was not only the number of 845 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 8: big plays which were obvious, because it felt like it 846 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 8: felt like the Cardinals were being allowed to have a 847 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:04,879 Speaker 8: big play every other play. 848 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 2: That's what it felt like. 849 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 8: But then you look at the fact that nearly half 850 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 8: of those big plays came on the ground. 851 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 2: If you bottle them up, the number passes right. 852 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,919 Speaker 8: If you bottle them up on the ground, then it's 853 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 8: a much more manageable game. And you probably still you 854 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 8: probably win this game, although with a couple, you know, 855 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,439 Speaker 8: with a black eye and some real bruises, and it's 856 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,359 Speaker 8: probably you know, twenty one twenty four, you walk away 857 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 8: with the win, but at least you give yourself an 858 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 8: opportunity to win, not I mean allowing that many big 859 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 8: plays on the ground, just it sets up the big 860 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 8: plays in the air and then from there you're just 861 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 8: along for the ride. And I do I know for 862 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 8: a fact, And we talked about it, the loss of 863 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 8: Trevon Diggs. It shouldn't be as massive as it could 864 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 8: be if this Cowboys team didn't have the depth that 865 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 8: it had. But it just looked like they were trying 866 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 8: to figure out what their identity is going to be 867 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,320 Speaker 8: in the secondary and on the defense. Without Trevon Diggs 868 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 8: being you know, that primary lockdown corner opposite Stefan Gilmore. 869 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 8: You were asking you more to do a little bit more. 870 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 8: Obviously you're asking Deron Bland to do a lot more 871 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 8: moving him to the outside, and then you see plays 872 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 8: like the DPI that extended the drivet. For the Cardinals, 873 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 8: it just feels like they didn't have their usual defensive 874 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 8: identity with Trevon Diggs not on that field, and that's 875 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 8: something that they're going to have to figure out because 876 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 8: allowing this many big plays is going to lose you 877 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 8: most games. But allowing this many big plays on the 878 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 8: ground is going to lose you nine out of ten games. 879 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 2: So yeah, and you. 880 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 10: Gotta make offenses respect you. Yes, you know they're gonna 881 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 10: keep running over you and making plays like that when 882 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 10: you keep giving them away and allowing it to happen. 883 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:43,239 Speaker 10: I don't think without Trevon Diggs, I wouldn't. Is there 884 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,920 Speaker 10: anybody else like in the secondary that you would think 885 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:52,240 Speaker 10: of posting teams see as like a threat. 886 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 8: I think they respect dron Bland and already six takeaways 887 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 8: like they respect darn Bland. But again, this is not 888 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 8: dron Bland's base position. He's a nickel guy, so he's 889 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 8: I say that with the aspect of I'm awarding him 890 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 8: some grace here. It's his first NFL game playing in 891 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 8: the outside, and you just knew that the Cardinals were 892 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 8: going to attack that, and they attacked it early, and 893 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 8: they attacked it early, which is what I would have 894 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,400 Speaker 8: done if I was to play caller for the Cardinals 895 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 8: or any team. 896 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 2: So it's something that Deron Bland is going to learn from. 897 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 8: But as far as the respect aspect, NFL teams respect 898 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 8: Bland because they know he can take the ball away 899 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,439 Speaker 8: just like Lewis Kann, just like Gilmore can. But when 900 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 8: you take away a guy like Trevon Diggs because of injury, 901 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 8: the immediate question is how quickly can you re establish 902 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 8: your new identity because you no longer have two lockdown corners. 903 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 8: You have one definitive lockdown corner and a ballhawk that 904 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 8: is moved from the inside to the outside and he's 905 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 8: trying to figure its way out. 906 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 2: And then of course that also a lockdown corner. Is 907 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 2: that what you're saying Gilmore? Yes, still Gilmore is a 908 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:53,439 Speaker 2: lockdown corner. 909 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,399 Speaker 8: He doesn't have the speed used to have, but I mean, 910 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 8: his mental acuity is insane and he has agree with that. 911 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 7: I't know if other teams look at him in the 912 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 7: same way they look at Diggs or. 913 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 5: Some of the true lockdown. 914 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,879 Speaker 7: I think this is also my thing about I think 915 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 7: lockdown corner is used way more than it should be 916 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 7: these days. 917 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 5: There are only a few. 918 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 7: Lockdown corners in the league on any given in any 919 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,919 Speaker 7: given season. In my opinion, Uh, there are some really 920 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 7: good cornerbacks, and I think Gilmore is a really good cornerback. 921 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 5: I don't call it. 922 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 7: I don't think he locks down one half of the field. 923 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 7: I don't think that's Gilmore's game. That's my opinion. 924 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,760 Speaker 3: I would find a way if I was attacking Gilmore. 925 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 2: I'm to figure. 926 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 9: I think the way to attack Gilmore is trying to 927 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 9: get him on the move. I think that to me, 928 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 9: and and Arizona did a really good job of this 929 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 9: when they they ran him through trash on the touchdown, 930 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:45,399 Speaker 9: they they start him on the left, the left side, 931 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 9: and they are they started the right, and they run 932 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,320 Speaker 9: him all the way across the field, all through stuff. 933 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 9: And you know, I think that you're absolutely right about 934 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 9: the smarts and all with him and what he reads. 935 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 9: But there is a little bit of that lack of 936 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 9: the burst that he wants. He had an elite burst 937 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 9: in the way he played and he's It shows now 938 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 9: when you carry him up the field. He'll fight you. 939 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 9: You know, he'll battle you and all that stuff that 940 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 9: there's teams though. You could see there's a little bit 941 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 9: of separation there, and you know, he dove. He made 942 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 9: a great effort to try and make the play, but 943 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 9: the ball was right there. 944 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:20,280 Speaker 3: It was well thrown. 945 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 9: It was But I would try and attack him on 946 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 9: the move and make him have to chase a little bit, 947 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 9: because I don't know if he has that burst that 948 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 9: he once had. He still could play at a very 949 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 9: high level. But there's ways that you I think you 950 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 9: could kind of mess with him a little bit. If 951 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 9: you get back to the run stuff and how the 952 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 9: big plays that they gave up in the running game. 953 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 9: I think a lot of it had to do with 954 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 9: your linebacker play. I think a lot of it had 955 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,399 Speaker 9: to do with your safety play. I don't think Kurse 956 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 9: was particularly good in this football game. I don't think 957 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,919 Speaker 9: Wilson was particularly good in this football game. I don't 958 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 9: feel that vander Esch and Clark were particularly good in 959 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 9: this game. And then when Belle got the opportunity, he 960 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,319 Speaker 9: got blocked second level, you know, long forty five with 961 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 9: a long touchdown run by More they got hat on 962 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 9: hat and it was you know, nobody touched the guy. 963 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 9: But if you're going to overrun place, then you better 964 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 9: know that if you overrun, somebody better be there to 965 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 9: pick up the pieces when you overrun it. The problem 966 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,840 Speaker 9: is Dallas has two or three players overrun in plays 967 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,319 Speaker 9: and then the ball breaks back behind that and there's 968 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 9: nobody there to pick up, nobody to pick up the pieces. 969 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 9: You know, you get guys that get cut hat on hat, 970 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 9: and then linebackers that are flying downhill and you got 971 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 9: safety flying downhill. And when they overrun plays, just know 972 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 9: that that ball, if it spills to the back side, 973 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 9: there's probably gonna be a big game there, all. 974 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:44,879 Speaker 7: Right, real quick, before we end the show, I did 975 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,400 Speaker 7: want to get some thoughts on what happened with the 976 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 7: offensive line. Obviously, had three of your starters out too many. 977 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 7: Doga is the guy that I think most people have 978 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 7: talked about the most of the guys who came in. 979 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 7: But what were your thoughts on Adoga, on Hoffman on bass. 980 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 7: They were all in there yesterday trying to kind of 981 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,399 Speaker 7: make whatever they can make out of that game, knowing 982 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 7: that three of their starters were down. 983 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,880 Speaker 8: I think considering what you know, the fire they were 984 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 8: thrown into. I think they cleaned themselves up pretty well. 985 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 8: I mean, like I said, at the beginning of the game, 986 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 8: it felt like things were going to get out of 987 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 8: hand because of the offensive line. Dak goes down once, 988 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 8: that goes down twice, and we're all back in Atlanta 989 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,320 Speaker 8: all over again. But there were no sacks allowed thereafter. 990 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 8: Now also to that was I did like that. I 991 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 8: saw Dak Prescott being more willing than ever, not than 992 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 8: ever then thus far the season to take off and 993 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:35,879 Speaker 8: run with his legs and try to move the change 994 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 8: that way. So that's at least promising. But the offensive line, 995 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 8: I mean, those young guys, they came in and performed. 996 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 2: I'm not going to say well. 997 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 8: But above above park, above the median I talked about that. 998 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 8: That holding penalty against Idoga was that was brutal. I mean, 999 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,240 Speaker 8: it killed a drive for the Cowboys and that can't happen. 1000 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 8: But I mean when you look at Tyron Smith, I 1001 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 8: mean we thought he was going to play all the 1002 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 8: way up until he he didn't, right, I mean, he 1003 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 8: was named captain, he was active. We thought he was 1004 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,759 Speaker 8: going to play. No Tuma, by the way, you're going 1005 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 8: in and we talked about this a lot. We like 1006 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,919 Speaker 8: Chumaydoga a lot more on the inside as a left 1007 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 8: guard then on the outside, and we saw why that 1008 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 8: is in lateral space he struggles a little bit with 1009 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 8: his feet in that quickness. But Bass had one penalty. Thankfully, 1010 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,319 Speaker 8: that penalty didn't cost the Cowboys that drive. Cowboys went 1011 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 8: down and got points on that drive. But for the 1012 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 8: most part, those that young trio of offensive linemen didn't 1013 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 8: really account for much of what happened. 1014 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 2: Or what went wrong in Arizona for the for the Cowboys. 1015 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, the sacks though, it was they didn't they try 1016 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 9: and throw waggle with Xavier at Xavier Collins and he 1017 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,879 Speaker 9: wasn't fooled, you know. They had They tried to get 1018 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:47,839 Speaker 9: the ball to Ferguson and actually had an opportunity if 1019 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 9: Xavier Collins, I mean here, they're thinking he's gonna come 1020 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 9: down inside, He's gonna chase, that's his aggressive style he 1021 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 9: plays with. And they were gonna wheel back out to 1022 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:57,879 Speaker 9: the left and throw the ball to Ferguson to get 1023 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,120 Speaker 9: a first down. It's a you know, no chance you 1024 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 9: get a sack. He's on top of him right there. 1025 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 9: Adoga gives up another sack there where they trying to 1026 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 9: double They try to double move on. 1027 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 3: The outside and here again. 1028 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 9: You know, when you look at Marco Wilson the corner, 1029 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 9: he's bitten on some of these double move routes. 1030 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 3: He's you know, he's a guy. 1031 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 9: The first couple of games, they've got the ball down 1032 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 9: the field, they try to double move him. He doesn't bite. 1033 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 9: Dak's got nowhere to go with the ball. Now he's 1034 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 9: sacked because a doga gives up the sack right there. 1035 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,439 Speaker 9: But other than that, I thought the guy's played as 1036 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 9: well as they could play. You know, I really I 1037 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 9: think that I'm really happy with bass. I think he's 1038 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 9: a mal or brawler kind of a guy. Think he's 1039 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:39,839 Speaker 9: a tough guy. I think you can rely on him 1040 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 9: in a game to help you, and if you had 1041 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 9: to continue to put him in there, I think he's 1042 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,240 Speaker 9: going to be just fine. I was worried, sick about Hoffman, 1043 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 9: that they were going to cover him and there was 1044 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 9: going to be problems, But he showed really really good 1045 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 9: toughness in this game. If the coaches were afraid of 1046 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 9: their offensive line going in, I get it. But as 1047 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 9: the game wore on, and I think I would have 1048 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 9: been more and more comfortable with what we can do. Again, 1049 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 9: maybe the offense isn't geared anymore to throw the ball 1050 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 9: down the field. Maybe everything is underneath in that intermediate 1051 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,359 Speaker 9: range get it out quick. If that's the case, then uh, 1052 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 9: you know, man, that's kind of what we're gonna you know, 1053 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:16,399 Speaker 9: that's what we're going to see the rest of the year. 1054 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 9: You know. I think the ball does need to go 1055 00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,879 Speaker 9: down the field. But again, maybe the coverage or maybe 1056 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:24,280 Speaker 9: the offensive line concerns were too much for the coaching 1057 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 9: staff in this game. 1058 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 10: With the whole conversation between a dog weather, it looks 1059 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 10: better as a guard than a tackle. 1060 00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 9: I'm surprised Tyler Smith didn't play left tackle in that 1061 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:34,240 Speaker 9: game yesterday. 1062 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 10: Is that how you would have lined them up? 1063 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,879 Speaker 3: I wouldned up. I would have put it. I would 1064 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:39,879 Speaker 3: have put Yeah. 1065 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 9: I mean Tyler Smith from playing guard guard guard all 1066 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 9: last year to all of a sudden boom, you're the 1067 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 9: starting left tackle against Tampa Bay Buccaneers and he played 1068 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 9: the whole year. I think that's how I would have 1069 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,920 Speaker 9: been more concerned about dealing with the edges in this 1070 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 9: game than I would deal with the inside guys. 1071 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 10: Why do y'all think that was their decision. 1072 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 9: Though we're doing radio and they're coaching in two thousand 1073 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,520 Speaker 9: and two thousand and five. In two thousand and five, 1074 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 9: I could have told you that sitting in that room 1075 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 9: right now. I just I'm just a guy doing radio. 1076 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, And there's no way to really know unless 1077 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 7: unless they tell us, right yeah, And they haven't been 1078 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,799 Speaker 7: willing to tell us that about how they came to 1079 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 7: that decision. But I before the game, when Nick was 1080 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 7: doing the pregame show and he had talked to Stephen 1081 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 7: Jones and kind of got win to the fact that 1082 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 7: Tyrone wasn't going to play. That was he and I 1083 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 7: both had the same reaction, like, why is Tyler not playing? 1084 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 5: Tackle? 1085 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:30,399 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1086 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 7: And it's just you know, I think part of it, 1087 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 7: and I think Nick brought this up, was maybe it's 1088 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 7: just with him coming back from injury, they didn't want 1089 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:37,719 Speaker 7: to just throw him out there. 1090 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:38,879 Speaker 5: You're coming back from that kind of injury. 1091 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:40,800 Speaker 7: Maybe they had a little question about whether he'd have 1092 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:42,439 Speaker 7: the lateral quickness coming off there. 1093 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,759 Speaker 3: Worked or worked all week at guard, right, Yeah. 1094 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,399 Speaker 7: It could have been those kinds of things that could 1095 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 7: have forced him to say, you know, it's better just 1096 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:48,760 Speaker 7: to keep him at guard. 1097 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 5: We'll put Idoga out there. 1098 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 7: But I definitely was my first thought is I'd rather 1099 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,800 Speaker 7: have Tyler out there protecting the blindside of my quarterback 1100 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:58,319 Speaker 7: because I know Idoga has done really I should say 1101 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 7: really well, but well enough, card, he's been fine, and 1102 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 7: so I would have kept him there, and I would 1103 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 7: have said, give me my guy that I think is 1104 00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:05,040 Speaker 7: gonna be my future left tackle. 1105 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 5: Let's put him out there and do it. 1106 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 8: But that wasn't I'll ask.
