0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:24.480

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.320
<v Speaker 1>They call you out, call me. I didn't even know

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:30.120
<v Speaker 1>they can see that angle, but I now I see

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:32.480
<v Speaker 1>that they can, So you know, gotta be on point.

0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Gotta be on point. You are in the players lads,

0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 1>brought to you by Hotels dot Com new he scrugs

0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:43.480
<v Speaker 1>long time Cowboys reported joined by two former Dallas Cowboys safeties,

0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:49.240
<v Speaker 1>Barry Church and Danny mccrank. Fellas, they are telling us

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing to be concerned about. Since right tackle l

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Collins left practice with a minor neck injury and a

0:01:57.040 --> 0:02:01.160
<v Speaker 1>minor arm injury last year, we were told, hey, it's

0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:04.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna be okay, he'll be back. He never played a

0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>snap last year, So Fellas, your concern level for Collins

0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>is what? Church? All right, Well, you know, I'm a

0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:15.799
<v Speaker 1>little nervous because anything anytime you're dealing with the neat

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 1>type of issue, that's never nothing to play around with.

0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:21.280
<v Speaker 1>But you know, we do have a great training staff here,

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:23.360
<v Speaker 1>so you know, and they say there's nothing to worry about,

0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.239
<v Speaker 1>then then I'm gonna go ahead and be with them

0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>and say there's nothing to worry about. Hopefully it was

0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:30.079
<v Speaker 1>just one of those stingers, you know. McCray like how

0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:32.360
<v Speaker 1>sometimes you know you're banging a little bit in the trenches,

0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:34.440
<v Speaker 1>sometimes your neck go the wrong way and he kind

0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:36.919
<v Speaker 1>of sends those shock nerves through your through your arm,

0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.160
<v Speaker 1>and down your legs. So hopefully he's just dealing with

0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>a slight stinger. You know, nothing that you know concerns

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:45.160
<v Speaker 1>going forward. I would still like to see him play

0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:47.080
<v Speaker 1>in this Houston game. I don't know if that's going

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:48.440
<v Speaker 1>to happen or not, but I would still like to

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:50.240
<v Speaker 1>see him play in that game, seeing as though he

0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't play a whole snap last year, and so we

0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:54.800
<v Speaker 1>gotta knock that rust off. I gotta see him in there.

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.280
<v Speaker 1>He was in the first couple of preseason games. Um,

0:02:57.480 --> 0:02:59.640
<v Speaker 1>so you know, I don't think it's nothing crazy to

0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.360
<v Speaker 1>worry about. But like I said earlier, that neck man

0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 1>that that's never nothing to play with. I mean, vanderash

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:06.560
<v Speaker 1>knows it, knows it better than anybody. There's never nothing

0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 1>to play with. So I'm gonna go ahead and put

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:10.600
<v Speaker 1>my trust in Jim Mayer, Bretton and boards at the

0:03:10.639 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 1>training staff and say there's nothing to worry about, and

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:15.080
<v Speaker 1>hopefully we see him in Houston. I just got a

0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>quick question for you, bro so, so, so, what was

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.640
<v Speaker 1>wrong with Tyrant last year? Why did he miss so

0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:23.480
<v Speaker 1>many games? I guess that was that neck right. But

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:26.040
<v Speaker 1>in answer this question for me, what do you know

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:31.480
<v Speaker 1>about stinkers? Right? You don't just have one. Yeah, once

0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:34.560
<v Speaker 1>you get one, it gets you throughout the whole season.

0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Every time you get hit that way, you get that

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:40.640
<v Speaker 1>same film bang and every game play, every snap. Okay,

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>number three knew were in church. Who do I say

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:46.160
<v Speaker 1>we should have drafted? I do this? What's coming mission

0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>that I said we should have drafted? And the reasons

0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:51.839
<v Speaker 1>why we had left tackle who was going to be out.

0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 1>We had a right tackle who had missed the whole

0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 1>entire season, didn't play a snap. We don't even made

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>it to the season. Yet we're in the same position

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 1>when we were here last year talking about Yeah, hey man,

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 1>they don't worry about it's all good. Let me tell

0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 1>you something. We played enough football to note, Like you said,

0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 1>neck injuries are real injuries. They should always be a concern.

0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:14.280
<v Speaker 1>There's no there's no time when you can say, hey man,

0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 1>this dude has a stinger, he has a neck injury.

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 1>It's not going to bother him for the rest of

0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>the season. That's one of the things you buckle down

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:20.719
<v Speaker 1>and you say, all right, this is somethingbody have to

0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>deal with for the entirety of the season, and hopefully

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.720
<v Speaker 1>it can heal after because you don't get a chance

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 1>to heal during the regular season. So I'm very concerned,

0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 1>very concerned, and we already been worried about our depth.

0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:34.760
<v Speaker 1>That old line. Anyways, it's true. Who's I mean, you're

0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:37.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna throw Terran Steel or Brandon Knight out there? Man?

0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:40.760
<v Speaker 1>Flashbacks will not let me get me and me and

0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:43.240
<v Speaker 1>you we get together, you know, we get out there

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:48.920
<v Speaker 1>and kick step a little bit. Yeah, I'm concerned, though,

0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 1>new I'm very concerned. I am skeptical, and I think

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:58.599
<v Speaker 1>based on what we saw last year, any fans out

0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:01.560
<v Speaker 1>there should be skeptical as well. Yes, they're telling us this,

0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:04.640
<v Speaker 1>but as Parcels used to tell tell us all the time,

0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:06.760
<v Speaker 1>all I can go by is what I see. And

0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:09.480
<v Speaker 1>last year we were told things, Hey, this person's gonna

0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:11.080
<v Speaker 1>be all right, this person gonna be okay, this personna

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 1>be that we haven't seen. Um. I was at camp

0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:16.120
<v Speaker 1>when Mike McCarthy's like Yoda should be back in a

0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.000
<v Speaker 1>couple of days, when he back with the shoulders trained.

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:21.560
<v Speaker 1>So and they can say they're being cautious, but I

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:23.440
<v Speaker 1>at this point in time, I have every right to

0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 1>be skeptical, and I think fans should be as well. Yeah,

0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:30.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, even with that injury to Collins, who

0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 1>were gonna put out there like that's the That's the

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:34.599
<v Speaker 1>thing that gets me as nervous as anything is, like

0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:36.919
<v Speaker 1>you know, hopefully you know everything is all right, and

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:39.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, like I said, nothing wrong or there's nothing

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>slight about the neck. But who's his backup? Who's gonna

0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:44.479
<v Speaker 1>be that swing tackle? I mean, we got you know,

0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.839
<v Speaker 1>the rookie Josh Ball, we got you know, Terrence Steel,

0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Brandon Night in there. I don't know if those guys

0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.560
<v Speaker 1>are ready, and especially seeing what we saw so far

0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:54.559
<v Speaker 1>in this preseason. They played all right, but it ain't

0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:56.720
<v Speaker 1>like their you know, main stays any't like ain't like

0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm very comfortable with Dak being there behind them. So

0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>we gotta make some choices here. I mean, if if, if, if,

0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.600
<v Speaker 1>if Collins is more hurt than what it seems, we

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:07.120
<v Speaker 1>might have to go out there and get somebody to

0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:09.120
<v Speaker 1>be that swing tackle, because, like I said, I'm not

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.320
<v Speaker 1>too sure that Terrence Still or Brandon Knight or the

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.360
<v Speaker 1>or the young Josh Ball in there can withstand you know,

0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 1>a full seventeen stretch seventeen games stretch at that right tackle.

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.599
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's that's a demanding position. So we shall see.

0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:23.000
<v Speaker 1>But what makes me the most nervous is his backups.

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean that that, I mean what you think about that?

0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I listen, It's concerning on multiple levels for me, right,

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 1>because we're worried about the depth at old line already. Right,

0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:35.479
<v Speaker 1>we've seen still we see night get out there. We've

0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.440
<v Speaker 1>seen what they've been able to do and their lack

0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 1>there production. Right, and now you have to worry about

0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:46.880
<v Speaker 1>our offensive coordinator again, right, because every time we have

0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:49.200
<v Speaker 1>one of these injuries to a tackle, we always sit

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 1>here on the show and we say, how are we

0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:53.520
<v Speaker 1>going to help this guy right throughout the game? Are

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>we gonna put a tight end out there? Are we

0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:57.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna chip you know, are we gonna run some misdirection

0:06:57.720 --> 0:07:00.360
<v Speaker 1>to food these defensive ends? And every week we come

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:02.280
<v Speaker 1>back and say, why didn't we do it? Right? So

0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:05.039
<v Speaker 1>now we have that issue, and then we also have

0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:08.120
<v Speaker 1>the issue of yeah, whatever they say, right, if Collins

0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:11.040
<v Speaker 1>come back, comes back and he plays Week one, we know,

0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 1>like I said that, at some point in the season,

0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 1>this stinger is gonna come back. So you're going to

0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:19.920
<v Speaker 1>have to be solid with the backup because he's going

0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:22.280
<v Speaker 1>to get some plan time this year. So it's gonna

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 1>be very important for us to find that that backup

0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:27.720
<v Speaker 1>guy who is for sure going to get some some

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.840
<v Speaker 1>serious reps and the and the other team is going

0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:31.960
<v Speaker 1>to be keyed in on him once he gets in

0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:33.560
<v Speaker 1>the game, so he better be ready to go. And

0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and me and we were talking about this yesterday. We

0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:39.200
<v Speaker 1>got a long stretch from that bye week to the

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.679
<v Speaker 1>end of the season. It's eleven games. They got eleven

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:45.559
<v Speaker 1>games straight where it's it's no break. You gotta you know, Sunday, Sunday,

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Sunday's all right in a row. So there's gonna be

0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:49.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of games out there for these boys. And

0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:51.960
<v Speaker 1>if we're already talking about injuries and we haven't even

0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>gotten out of the preseason yet, it's a little concerning

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:56.440
<v Speaker 1>for your boy, A little concerning for your boy. But

0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:58.440
<v Speaker 1>i'mnna put my trust in Britt Brower and Jim and

0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Jim Mauer and Britt Brown and the boy to get

0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:02.640
<v Speaker 1>that man bright and getting ready for the bucks. Let

0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 1>me tell you something, turn can say all he wants

0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:05.720
<v Speaker 1>to about the trust in the training staff. Ain't nothing

0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:08.640
<v Speaker 1>they can do about a stinker. It's nothing they can

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:11.800
<v Speaker 1>be the best whatever. Unless you are a magician, those

0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:14.800
<v Speaker 1>things once they come there happened, you probably will still

0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:17.080
<v Speaker 1>get a stinger. We're not even playing the game for

0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>five years. If you got hit a certain way, you

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:21.120
<v Speaker 1>would get a stinger from the same position that you

0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:23.880
<v Speaker 1>had ten years ago. There's nothing you can do about it.

0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:29.920
<v Speaker 1>All right, we've forgotten about tying to Techy here. Okay,

0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:33.600
<v Speaker 1>he does the guy they signed to be the swing tackle.

0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:36.760
<v Speaker 1>He's missing time in training camp dealing with the knee.

0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:38.560
<v Speaker 1>But to me, that would be the first guy I

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.600
<v Speaker 1>would look for if something would happen with Collins. Josh

0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Ball is not ready, so and so don't even do

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:46.120
<v Speaker 1>my opinion, put him in the conversation. Also, while I

0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.240
<v Speaker 1>was there at training camp, had an opportunity to talk

0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 1>to Terrence Steele. He came over and spoke with the media,

0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:54.320
<v Speaker 1>and he says he feels that he's made a knice

0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:58.120
<v Speaker 1>leap because he had a full offseason, because he's had

0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:00.959
<v Speaker 1>playing raps last year. So I look at the sky

0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:03.480
<v Speaker 1>and steal and think that, Okay, they've got some good

0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.360
<v Speaker 1>options here. And oh, by the way, it's the National

0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:09.440
<v Speaker 1>Football League. I don't care who you are. Anybody who's

0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:12.120
<v Speaker 1>losing a starting tackle in this league, their backups are

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a big It's gonna be a fall off huge.

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.520
<v Speaker 1>So um, you're just gonna have to deal with it. There.

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.640
<v Speaker 1>So that that's it. And let me tell you something. Okay,

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:23.240
<v Speaker 1>question for you, because we're talking about the right tackle.

0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:27.120
<v Speaker 1>How is our love tackle performing out there? How when

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:30.400
<v Speaker 1>you see him in practice? Is he still the guy?

0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Is he? Is he? Is he Tyrann Smith of what

0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:35.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty ten like Church said? Is he that guy? Or

0:09:35.920 --> 0:09:38.400
<v Speaker 1>are you seeing him, you know, slip up a little bit,

0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:41.079
<v Speaker 1>maybe get beat off the line? Or is he or

0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 1>he just fantastic? Is Tyrn Smith still all decade? I

0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 1>think he has something to prove. We got to talk

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:53.520
<v Speaker 1>to him the other night after the Cowboys game. I mean,

0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:56.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Cowboys practice with the fans there. First off,

0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.920
<v Speaker 1>he looks great. Okay, he looks great, And I said

0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:01.880
<v Speaker 1>to him, how many more Pro Bowls do you think

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.880
<v Speaker 1>you're having in? And you know Tyren doesn't like to

0:10:04.920 --> 0:10:07.080
<v Speaker 1>go there. And we also talked about his you know,

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.200
<v Speaker 1>his you know, hey, being out last year, if you

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:11.720
<v Speaker 1>thought about you know, where your career is and what

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:15.480
<v Speaker 1>you've done, he says, he's just going to take a

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:18.040
<v Speaker 1>game by game and ultimately, to answer your question, Danny

0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Tyran Smith is still one of the better left tackles

0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:25.120
<v Speaker 1>in the National Football League and if healthy, I expect

0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:28.760
<v Speaker 1>him to have a Pro Bowl season. So we just

0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.360
<v Speaker 1>got to see if they're healthy. But but that that is,

0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:34.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, the life of any left tackle in the

0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 1>National Football League. And I'll say this, man, if you

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>guys start checking Twitter, you start looking at other teams.

0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:44.280
<v Speaker 1>You go to a place like Cincinnati, they got questions

0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:47.240
<v Speaker 1>about their football team on the offensive line. I can't

0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:48.880
<v Speaker 1>remember who I just saw that was about to sign

0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Jason Peters to play left tackle. And I'm like, wow,

0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:53.720
<v Speaker 1>you signed at Jason Peters. I mean, you know, you

0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>really reach it right there. So so so you know,

0:10:57.400 --> 0:10:59.640
<v Speaker 1>this is an issue across this league. Man. I'm even

0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:02.240
<v Speaker 1>with the the Rams have issues in question marks at

0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:06.600
<v Speaker 1>their offensive line spot. So I think sometimes we looked

0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:08.760
<v Speaker 1>at the Cowboys and that's all we look at and

0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>you think, oh, man, you know this guy here, this

0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:13.559
<v Speaker 1>guy there. Even Connor Williams well it's Carter Williams is

0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:15.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna be good. Connor Williams to be a starter on

0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:18.400
<v Speaker 1>basically twenty other teams in the National Football League, and

0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:20.560
<v Speaker 1>they'd love to have him. It's just with the Cowboys,

0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you've got this high standard because you got a Hall

0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:24.400
<v Speaker 1>of Famer and that Martin has been to get a

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Fame resume, and you judge him, you judge

0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.040
<v Speaker 1>him off that. You judge him off for Nate Newton,

0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:30.719
<v Speaker 1>you judge him off for Hilarry All. I mean, there

0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:33.160
<v Speaker 1>has been some excellent guard play with the Cowboys the

0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 1>last twenty five years. So you know it's Connor that no.

0:11:35.880 --> 0:11:38.320
<v Speaker 1>But you know what, this dude is a is a

0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 1>good starter in the National Football League. And I think

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:43.680
<v Speaker 1>so many times we can we can kind of forget,

0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:46.240
<v Speaker 1>forget that a lot of teams in this league have issues.

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:50.480
<v Speaker 1>But the difference between us and those other teams are

0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:53.840
<v Speaker 1>we've paid our two tackles right and left, and we

0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:56.760
<v Speaker 1>went through this last year. Ye right, this is this

0:11:56.840 --> 0:11:59.679
<v Speaker 1>is a consecutive thing that's going on, right. Tyrant has

0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:03.640
<v Speaker 1>been injured in consecutive years going back before last year.

0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Layle missed the entire season last year, the entire season.

0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:10.560
<v Speaker 1>We have not made it through training camp and he

0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:13.320
<v Speaker 1>already has another issue. So other teams may be going

0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:15.240
<v Speaker 1>through stuff like that, But these are two guys that

0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:18.000
<v Speaker 1>we've paid. We've found the guys that we want, and

0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:21.200
<v Speaker 1>we can't keep them on the field and healthy for

0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 1>us to have our full old line so we can

0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:25.960
<v Speaker 1>get back to moving that line of scrimmage, having Ze

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:29.360
<v Speaker 1>be productive and producting protecting back back there. Are you

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.720
<v Speaker 1>comfortable well what we have now at the backups for

0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:34.680
<v Speaker 1>the right tackle, left tackle. Are you comfortable with Terrence

0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:38.160
<v Speaker 1>still Be or Terrence Neil Knight the Sky being one

0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 1>of those swing tackles man, you know, just based off

0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:43.440
<v Speaker 1>what I've seen from from two of those guys in

0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:46.720
<v Speaker 1>the past. Absolutely not. Um, I think that's fair. I

0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:49.760
<v Speaker 1>think it the Seki. I think he is probably going

0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:51.840
<v Speaker 1>to earn the right to see if he can go

0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:55.679
<v Speaker 1>out there and be productive and be that swing swing tackle. Um.

0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:59.840
<v Speaker 1>But as of right now, based off what I've seen, Nah,

0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:03.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm not kind of like backup quarterback. Yeah, that's true.

0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Newly you comfortable with the situation? To me, I'm looking

0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:13.559
<v Speaker 1>at how Mike McCarthy and Kellen Moore and Joe Philbin

0:13:13.640 --> 0:13:16.679
<v Speaker 1>handled the situation. Let's say that you don't have Collins

0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:18.280
<v Speaker 1>out there for any time at all, and you got

0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:20.679
<v Speaker 1>to go into Secy or you gotta go with Steel,

0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:23.280
<v Speaker 1>then make sure number eighty seven Jeremy sprinkles out there

0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:26.000
<v Speaker 1>as well, helping block. Just help these guys, that's what

0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:27.679
<v Speaker 1>you got to do. In the past, they've been unwilling

0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:29.080
<v Speaker 1>to help some of these guys and leave out there

0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:31.320
<v Speaker 1>one on one. Just stop doing that. Make sure that

0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:34.360
<v Speaker 1>the tackle has some help, because you know what, if

0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:37.880
<v Speaker 1>I've just got CD Lamb and Amari Cooper and a route,

0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:39.600
<v Speaker 1>I think I could win and got and got twenty

0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.000
<v Speaker 1>one in the back too, I think I could win

0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:43.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of matchups. And so to me, it's how

0:13:43.200 --> 0:13:46.560
<v Speaker 1>you go ahead and utilize these guys. We got to

0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 1>take a break here. When we come back. I feel

0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 1>that Jalen Smith is getting the tea pain treatment from

0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Cowboy fans. I do. I'm gonna defend number nine. I'm

0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:02.000

0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:42.879
<v Speaker 1>on your note. That's what we're gonna need it. We

0:18:42.960 --> 0:18:47.119
<v Speaker 1>need that back. But it was it was COVID. It

0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:49.760
<v Speaker 1>was COVID so and then the person who had it

0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:52.040
<v Speaker 1>can't put it their desks because they don't have them

0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:53.399
<v Speaker 1>working at the desk. I was like, it may just

0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:55.720
<v Speaker 1>take it on home, you know, so let him rent

0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:57.080

0:19:06.160 --> 0:19:08.080

<v Speaker 1>I'm not here. I am not here to joke on Jayila.

0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:34.119
<v Speaker 1>By the way, have you seen the Netflix special called

0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:39.440
<v Speaker 1>This Is Pop? If you have? Okay, it's very good.

0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:43.719
<v Speaker 1>And there's this episode about Tea Pain and Auto Tune

0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:49.200
<v Speaker 1>and T Pain was flying to an award show and

0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:53.000
<v Speaker 1>he's on the plane and the stewardess comes over and says, hey,

0:19:53.080 --> 0:19:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Usher would like to have a work with you. So

0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:58.720
<v Speaker 1>te Paint and Usher friends and t paints like, oh yeah,

0:19:58.800 --> 0:19:59.960
<v Speaker 1>let me go over here talk to him in us.

0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:02.560
<v Speaker 1>She's got this concerned look on his face and he

0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:05.480
<v Speaker 1>says over to Tea Paint, hey man, you really left

0:20:05.560 --> 0:20:09.680
<v Speaker 1>up music, and it was because te Pain was using

0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:12.000
<v Speaker 1>the auto tune and so many other people were using

0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:14.920
<v Speaker 1>auto tune. So folks like Usher, we're getting mad. He's like, hey, man,

0:20:15.080 --> 0:20:17.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm out here singing using my voice. You guys out here,

0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:20.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, messing up the game got Jennifer Lopez making

0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:24.280
<v Speaker 1>hit album Hit Records with auto tune. So te Pain

0:20:24.400 --> 0:20:26.800
<v Speaker 1>had that song with with Kanye West. Man, Kanye West

0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:28.840
<v Speaker 1>did a whole album on auto tune, but people blame

0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Tea Paint and they said you're the problem. You're what's wrong,

0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:34.080
<v Speaker 1>And he said, man, I went to a four year

0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:37.040
<v Speaker 1>depression after that conversation with Usher because he was doubting

0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:40.560
<v Speaker 1>himself in his crab and I look at social media.

0:20:41.000 --> 0:20:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Jay Z came out with the yes the whole song, Yeah, yes,

0:20:47.040 --> 0:20:50.800
<v Speaker 1>get but he says, get back to wrapping your tea painting,

0:20:53.880 --> 0:20:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and that's a that's a cold line. So te Pain

0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:58.879
<v Speaker 1>talked about how man all this affected him and I

0:20:58.920 --> 0:21:01.280
<v Speaker 1>sit here and I see all this media hate for

0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:03.919
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Smith and he should be the fourth linebacker and

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.360
<v Speaker 1>trade him and cut him. I'm thinking myself, Man, if

0:21:06.400 --> 0:21:08.199
<v Speaker 1>this brother is reading this stuff, he about to have

0:21:08.240 --> 0:21:11.159
<v Speaker 1>a tea pain moment where everybody's mad at him, and

0:21:11.240 --> 0:21:13.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm sitting around here and I'm thinking, here's a guy

0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:15.119
<v Speaker 1>that has led the team and tackles the last two

0:21:15.240 --> 0:21:18.439
<v Speaker 1>years he has played. And if anything, the drafting of

0:21:18.520 --> 0:21:21.679
<v Speaker 1>Michael Parsons and also the improvements of what we're seeing

0:21:21.720 --> 0:21:26.680
<v Speaker 1>from from someone like a Keyan O'Neil, that your linebacker

0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:28.960
<v Speaker 1>room is going to get better. And if lake vanderest

0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:31.040
<v Speaker 1>she's back to where he was last year. Yes, Jalen

0:21:31.160 --> 0:21:33.879
<v Speaker 1>is going to be most likely your fourth linebacker. But

0:21:34.160 --> 0:21:36.760
<v Speaker 1>is that a bad thing? Aren't those guys right now

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:39.360
<v Speaker 1>playing better? Don't they have a potential to give dan

0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Quinn more of what he wants. Doesn't make a linebacker

0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:44.160
<v Speaker 1>room better? And ain't Jalen's fault that they paid him.

0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:46.280
<v Speaker 1>They ain't throw that money at you. You're gonna go

0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:48.679
<v Speaker 1>ahead and take it. But Thang is beating this guy up,

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:50.600
<v Speaker 1>and I feel like, man, you're treating Jane like tea pain? Man.

0:21:50.600 --> 0:21:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Why dontta treat Jane like tea pain? Yeah? Yeah, I listen.

0:21:53.400 --> 0:21:55.919
<v Speaker 1>I don't to some extent, I don't think it's fair. Right.

0:21:55.920 --> 0:21:57.720
<v Speaker 1>We make fun of him a little bit for the

0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:00.919
<v Speaker 1>advertisements in the swiping and stuff, but that's his swag

0:22:00.960 --> 0:22:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and swag. His swag got him paid. Right, people began

0:22:04.520 --> 0:22:06.760
<v Speaker 1>to love Jaylen Smith. Well we knew about the NFL

0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:09.120
<v Speaker 1>is or what have you done for me lately? Lead?

0:22:09.280 --> 0:22:11.520
<v Speaker 1>All right? At first it was a feel good story.

0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:14.879
<v Speaker 1>Jaylen Smith's back everything he overcame, and then he had

0:22:14.920 --> 0:22:16.879
<v Speaker 1>a good season. They were like, okay, all that's behind him,

0:22:16.880 --> 0:22:19.520
<v Speaker 1>all right, we don't care about none of that. Can

0:22:19.600 --> 0:22:21.760
<v Speaker 1>you play ball now? And then you saw a little

0:22:21.800 --> 0:22:24.720
<v Speaker 1>bit of you know, regression, you know, and we blame

0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:27.360
<v Speaker 1>I blame a lot of that on the past defensive

0:22:27.359 --> 0:22:30.680
<v Speaker 1>coordinator who set these guys back so much. Man, And

0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:32.960
<v Speaker 1>thank god for dan Quinn coming in here and getting

0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:35.239
<v Speaker 1>these guys right, but they set them back right. So

0:22:35.280 --> 0:22:38.280
<v Speaker 1>the expectation now for jay Lens, especially after you get paid,

0:22:38.520 --> 0:22:40.520
<v Speaker 1>it's to be one of the greatest. We want to

0:22:40.560 --> 0:22:43.040
<v Speaker 1>see you, you know, expand on what you did that

0:22:43.119 --> 0:22:45.440
<v Speaker 1>year when we thought we had the best linebacker corps

0:22:45.480 --> 0:22:48.080
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL. And it just hasn't been that way.

0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:51.920
<v Speaker 1>But he's still celebrating and doing his advertisements as if

0:22:52.359 --> 0:22:54.800
<v Speaker 1>he had been playing that way last season. I think

0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.119
<v Speaker 1>that's the issue was like, hey man, stop all the

0:22:57.119 --> 0:23:00.119
<v Speaker 1>celebrating and get back to what you were doing that

0:23:00.119 --> 0:23:02.199
<v Speaker 1>that allowed you to do those type of celebrations. Make

0:23:02.200 --> 0:23:04.239
<v Speaker 1>those tackles. We want to see you break down and

0:23:04.280 --> 0:23:06.680
<v Speaker 1>be able to make open field tackles and run sideline

0:23:06.680 --> 0:23:08.760
<v Speaker 1>of sideline. If you're not doing that, then stop with

0:23:08.800 --> 0:23:11.520
<v Speaker 1>the celebrating. I'm not hating on them. Make your money, man,

0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:13.320
<v Speaker 1>do you but then you got to be open to

0:23:13.440 --> 0:23:15.600
<v Speaker 1>the criticism that comes your way. That is true. And

0:23:15.840 --> 0:23:18.159
<v Speaker 1>you know Spider Man said the best Man or his

0:23:18.280 --> 0:23:20.959
<v Speaker 1>uncle Ben or whatever his name was, with great power

0:23:21.080 --> 0:23:24.239
<v Speaker 1>comes great responsibility. And when you get the bag like that,

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean he got sixty five ms. When you get

0:23:26.240 --> 0:23:29.080
<v Speaker 1>that bag like that, people are gonna expect great things

0:23:29.080 --> 0:23:31.840
<v Speaker 1>out of you. And he provided that. That first year

0:23:31.880 --> 0:23:33.600
<v Speaker 1>he went to the Pro Bowl twenty eighteen, everything was

0:23:33.600 --> 0:23:36.440
<v Speaker 1>on fire. He was doing great returning fumbles for touchdowns,

0:23:36.440 --> 0:23:39.359
<v Speaker 1>he was making great splash plays. And then as the

0:23:39.440 --> 0:23:42.560
<v Speaker 1>years went on, it just slowly went down and down

0:23:42.640 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 1>as far as his production as far as making splash

0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:48.040
<v Speaker 1>plays out there, that being that key defender out there.

0:23:48.240 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 1>And then now you got a new rookie coming in

0:23:50.840 --> 0:23:53.119
<v Speaker 1>the new the brand new toy that everybody's kind of like,

0:23:53.119 --> 0:23:55.760
<v Speaker 1>oh man, this guy's on fire and he's actually playing

0:23:55.800 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 1>well too, and he's making these other linebackers seem a

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:00.680
<v Speaker 1>lot slower. But this guy runs a four three. I mean,

0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:03.840
<v Speaker 1>this ain't like it like a regular guy. This dude's

0:24:03.920 --> 0:24:05.840
<v Speaker 1>running the four three, so he's gonna make other guys

0:24:05.840 --> 0:24:08.080
<v Speaker 1>look slow out there. But I think the main thing

0:24:08.119 --> 0:24:12.320
<v Speaker 1>with the fan base about j Jala Smith is when

0:24:12.359 --> 0:24:16.119
<v Speaker 1>you don't play up to your price tag, people are

0:24:16.119 --> 0:24:18.399
<v Speaker 1>gonna get on you about that. And it is it

0:24:18.520 --> 0:24:21.000
<v Speaker 1>fair now? Because like Nui said, like Nui said, like

0:24:21.119 --> 0:24:22.720
<v Speaker 1>nw he said, he didn't get He didn't he didn't

0:24:22.720 --> 0:24:24.200
<v Speaker 1>say you know, they he didn't tell him. He didn't

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:25.679
<v Speaker 1>force him to pay him. You know, he just he

0:24:25.760 --> 0:24:28.000
<v Speaker 1>took the bread. But with that, when taking that bread,

0:24:28.000 --> 0:24:30.359
<v Speaker 1>you gotta your play has to Your resume has to

0:24:30.480 --> 0:24:33.280
<v Speaker 1>keep keep getting different each and every year. And he

0:24:33.320 --> 0:24:35.280
<v Speaker 1>hasn't updated his resume. He's still living off of that

0:24:35.280 --> 0:24:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Pro Bowl to twenty eighteen seasons. So I get why

0:24:38.240 --> 0:24:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the fans are getting on him a little bit. Is

0:24:39.720 --> 0:24:42.080
<v Speaker 1>it kind of harsh? Yes, because it gets personal. You know,

0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:44.560
<v Speaker 1>they take it outside of football. Sometimes, you know, I

0:24:44.560 --> 0:24:46.160
<v Speaker 1>could see getting on his play, but when you get

0:24:46.240 --> 0:24:47.840
<v Speaker 1>on everything else about it, you know, that's that's a

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:50.120
<v Speaker 1>little bit too much. But if the guy's not playing

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to his price tag, I mean, you're gonna get You're

0:24:52.320 --> 0:24:53.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna get what you're getting. You know, people are gonna

0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:56.960
<v Speaker 1>get at you. Okay, Church, Church, Church, I'm I'm anna

0:24:56.960 --> 0:24:58.800
<v Speaker 1>interject on this. When you talk about playing to the

0:24:58.840 --> 0:25:01.479
<v Speaker 1>price tag, it's it's not like he set the market

0:25:01.560 --> 0:25:04.440
<v Speaker 1>at his position in the National Football League or even

0:25:04.560 --> 0:25:07.760
<v Speaker 1>the highest paid player in Cowboys history. We've seen guys

0:25:07.800 --> 0:25:10.480
<v Speaker 1>who've hit that mark here recently who have not played

0:25:10.560 --> 0:25:12.600
<v Speaker 1>up to the level, and they don't get that same

0:25:13.000 --> 0:25:16.360
<v Speaker 1>key and same vitriol from Cowboy fans to Jayalen does

0:25:16.720 --> 0:25:18.480
<v Speaker 1>that's true, you're talking about You told about the Marcus

0:25:18.560 --> 0:25:20.959
<v Speaker 1>Lawrence right who only got he only had like five sacks.

0:25:21.000 --> 0:25:24.720
<v Speaker 1>But if you look at the Pro Football Focus, everybody's

0:25:24.760 --> 0:25:26.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, big grades on here, he's still one of

0:25:26.760 --> 0:25:29.679
<v Speaker 1>the highest graded defensive lignment. If you look at Jalen

0:25:29.760 --> 0:25:33.200
<v Speaker 1>Smith's Pro Football Focus, what everybody grades on, he's one

0:25:33.200 --> 0:25:36.359
<v Speaker 1>of the lowest raded linebackers and all he's saying he's making,

0:25:36.440 --> 0:25:38.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, terrible plays out there. He's not gonna help

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:40.800
<v Speaker 1>the team at all. No, but if you're getting paid

0:25:40.840 --> 0:25:43.920
<v Speaker 1>that much, your play has to go batch it. Who

0:25:44.080 --> 0:25:47.600
<v Speaker 1>was the last linebacker to get paid by the Cowboys,

0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:51.040
<v Speaker 1>Because I'm in my mind, I'm thinking Jalen Smiths set

0:25:51.040 --> 0:25:54.040
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys market for linebackers, all right? They let they

0:25:54.119 --> 0:25:56.080
<v Speaker 1>let Anthony Hitchins get out of here. He wouldn't won

0:25:56.119 --> 0:25:59.240
<v Speaker 1>a Super Bowl. If another safety comes in and signs

0:25:59.240 --> 0:26:01.199
<v Speaker 1>a deal, hired in yours and they let you go,

0:26:01.320 --> 0:26:03.600
<v Speaker 1>then they set the market for the Cowboys at safety.

0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's gonna be like, we don't care what other teams

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:08.840
<v Speaker 1>that play safeties. The Cowboys have never been in the

0:26:08.920 --> 0:26:13.080
<v Speaker 1>pan's safety maybe since Darren Woodson. So if they pay

0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:15.800
<v Speaker 1>a safety, even if he's not the highest pay safety,

0:26:15.960 --> 0:26:19.000
<v Speaker 1>the expectation for that guy is going to be higher

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:21.919
<v Speaker 1>than Jamal Adams. You're the highest paid at your position

0:26:21.960 --> 0:26:23.920
<v Speaker 1>in the in the locker room, yeah, things are gonna

0:26:23.920 --> 0:26:25.840
<v Speaker 1>be expect You're expected to be the best at that

0:26:26.000 --> 0:26:29.159
<v Speaker 1>at that position and right now being fourth, they being

0:26:29.200 --> 0:26:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the fourth most productive and you're the highest paid. It

0:26:31.640 --> 0:26:33.480
<v Speaker 1>just doesn't add up. I think, and I also think

0:26:33.520 --> 0:26:36.840
<v Speaker 1>that fans are looking for a reason to kind of

0:26:36.920 --> 0:26:40.320
<v Speaker 1>explain why Jaylen Smith's production is fell off. Right. It's like,

0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:43.159
<v Speaker 1>it can't just be the scheme. It can't be this,

0:26:43.440 --> 0:26:45.000
<v Speaker 1>oh well now, it has to be that he's not

0:26:45.040 --> 0:26:48.280
<v Speaker 1>focused and that that always comes back to the Cowboys. Right.

0:26:48.480 --> 0:26:51.719
<v Speaker 1>Anytime you see a Cowboy go out and do some

0:26:51.760 --> 0:26:53.800
<v Speaker 1>type of marketing or do some type of commercial and

0:26:53.800 --> 0:26:56.280
<v Speaker 1>then we don't have a good season, what do they say, Oh,

0:26:56.280 --> 0:26:59.280
<v Speaker 1>they're not focused, right, They focus on they focus on

0:26:59.320 --> 0:27:01.760
<v Speaker 1>the brand, they focus on whatever. I'm like, you could

0:27:01.760 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 1>do both, right, just because you shoot a commercial that

0:27:04.000 --> 0:27:07.400
<v Speaker 1>ain't gonna make you miss a tackle, you just didn't

0:27:07.400 --> 0:27:12.000
<v Speaker 1>have a good season, right. Tony Rommel went through that.

0:27:12.240 --> 0:27:15.040
<v Speaker 1>If Tony was caught playing golf somewhere, everybody it would

0:27:15.080 --> 0:27:17.800
<v Speaker 1>get on him and say that he wasn't focused at all. Here.

0:27:17.840 --> 0:27:20.359
<v Speaker 1>But I go back to Jalen Smith and the fact

0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:23.399
<v Speaker 1>that the Cowboys decided to pay him. This is really

0:27:23.440 --> 0:27:27.000
<v Speaker 1>on management and management's decision and what to do. They

0:27:27.359 --> 0:27:29.600
<v Speaker 1>ezekie elliet ninety million dollars. Then they go hire a

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 1>head coach who doesn't want to run the football last year.

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:33.880
<v Speaker 1>He didn't happen because season at all. Amari Cooper gets

0:27:33.880 --> 0:27:35.919
<v Speaker 1>paid a whole lot of money last year and he

0:27:36.000 --> 0:27:38.199
<v Speaker 1>didn't have the season. When you talk about what you

0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:40.960
<v Speaker 1>got paid for, I mean, so I'm telling you man,

0:27:41.119 --> 0:27:44.280
<v Speaker 1>the bar for Jalen and even just the way we choose.

0:27:44.880 --> 0:27:46.560
<v Speaker 1>That's why I used to say I'm old NBC Sports

0:27:46.640 --> 0:27:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Radio show. It's interesting on who we choose to condemn

0:27:49.359 --> 0:27:52.080
<v Speaker 1>and who we choose to forgive. So we forgiven Ezekiel Eli,

0:27:52.160 --> 0:27:55.760
<v Speaker 1>We're forgiven Cooper, we forgiven Tank, but Jaylen Smith you're damned.

0:27:55.880 --> 0:27:58.240
<v Speaker 1>And that's how cowboy fans on Twitter treating this guy

0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:00.560
<v Speaker 1>heat the first dude to walk out of here get

0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:02.359
<v Speaker 1>a whole bag, and he's saying, huh, I mean Brandon

0:28:02.440 --> 0:28:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Carr got fifty million dollars. He wasn't a fifty million

0:28:04.720 --> 0:28:07.920
<v Speaker 1>dollars corner. You know. It's not the Miles Austin got

0:28:07.920 --> 0:28:09.800
<v Speaker 1>paid a whole lot of money and he was never

0:28:09.840 --> 0:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>the same player. Jalen Smith is really along the line

0:28:12.960 --> 0:28:15.080
<v Speaker 1>of the cowboy mistakes that we can look at in

0:28:15.080 --> 0:28:17.879
<v Speaker 1>the last fifteen years and take did you overpay this player?

0:28:18.560 --> 0:28:21.640
<v Speaker 1>It's happened, and it happens with every team, every team

0:28:21.960 --> 0:28:24.720
<v Speaker 1>old on hold on the exception, with the exception of

0:28:24.800 --> 0:28:28.359
<v Speaker 1>Miles Austin, because he was doing some crazy stuff, you know,

0:28:28.440 --> 0:28:30.760
<v Speaker 1>on the field when he got paid. Miles Auston was

0:28:30.760 --> 0:28:33.560
<v Speaker 1>out there getting two hundred yards this game, one fifty

0:28:33.600 --> 0:28:35.480
<v Speaker 1>to the next game. So I'm gonna take him out

0:28:35.480 --> 0:28:37.880
<v Speaker 1>of that category and say, when't they paid him? He

0:28:37.960 --> 0:28:39.800
<v Speaker 1>was worth it. I think then it kind of fell

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:42.240
<v Speaker 1>off a little bit. I think the biggest difference between

0:28:42.280 --> 0:28:45.400
<v Speaker 1>you know those examples yet Ezekiel Elliot is the DeMarcus Lawrences,

0:28:45.440 --> 0:28:47.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Miles Austins, all those all those things,

0:28:47.880 --> 0:28:51.440
<v Speaker 1>is the difference is Jalen Smith got a new shiny

0:28:51.480 --> 0:28:54.680
<v Speaker 1>toy behind him, and everybody's gonna want to play with

0:28:54.680 --> 0:28:57.520
<v Speaker 1>that new shiny toy, which is Parsons. So they're gonna

0:28:57.520 --> 0:29:00.520
<v Speaker 1>make every excuse and every oh man he missed, he

0:29:00.560 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 1>just can't play. They're gonna go ahead and get on

0:29:02.600 --> 0:29:05.000
<v Speaker 1>him because they see what they what they have behind him,

0:29:05.000 --> 0:29:06.840
<v Speaker 1>and they want that new shiny toy to go ahead

0:29:06.840 --> 0:29:08.840
<v Speaker 1>and play. So they're gonna sit there and do everything

0:29:08.880 --> 0:29:11.480
<v Speaker 1>they can to get You know, mister clear, I have

0:29:11.520 --> 0:29:14.440
<v Speaker 1>you Jalen Smith about it there, which is it fair now,

0:29:14.560 --> 0:29:16.800
<v Speaker 1>But that's the fan base we live in. But that's

0:29:16.840 --> 0:29:19.800
<v Speaker 1>also that's also an NFL. That's it. That's true. If

0:29:19.840 --> 0:29:21.800
<v Speaker 1>you got a guy behind you pushing you and he's

0:29:21.840 --> 0:29:24.360
<v Speaker 1>making better plays than you and you're not making those plays,

0:29:24.640 --> 0:29:27.440
<v Speaker 1>that's the league, man. You know, no matter how much

0:29:27.480 --> 0:29:29.720
<v Speaker 1>money you got, it's always gonna be somebody that's creeping

0:29:29.800 --> 0:29:32.000
<v Speaker 1>up behind you trying to take your spot. And eventually

0:29:32.120 --> 0:29:34.640
<v Speaker 1>they always went out, with the exception of a Tom Brady,

0:29:34.840 --> 0:29:39.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, it always happens to where somebody is younger, faster, bigger, stronger,

0:29:39.800 --> 0:29:41.400
<v Speaker 1>and they come and they take your position because you

0:29:41.400 --> 0:29:43.800
<v Speaker 1>got older and father you're the first round him. They're

0:29:43.840 --> 0:29:48.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to play. I mean they're gonna have to well. Well,

0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:50.120
<v Speaker 1>I think the Cowboys would put themselves in a very

0:29:50.120 --> 0:29:53.560
<v Speaker 1>good position because Jalen Smith hears it, he knows it.

0:29:53.760 --> 0:29:55.640
<v Speaker 1>He's got to have a good year. If he wants

0:29:55.640 --> 0:29:57.480
<v Speaker 1>to come back next year, he's gonna he's gonna need

0:29:57.520 --> 0:29:59.040
<v Speaker 1>to have a good year. And if he wants to

0:29:59.080 --> 0:30:01.320
<v Speaker 1>leave and get a contract after he leaves here, he's

0:30:01.320 --> 0:30:03.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna need to have a good year and late Vanderest.

0:30:03.160 --> 0:30:04.480
<v Speaker 1>The team said, you know, we're not gonna pick up

0:30:04.480 --> 0:30:06.800
<v Speaker 1>your fifth year option, so he's got something to play for.

0:30:07.120 --> 0:30:09.640
<v Speaker 1>And to me, the Cowboys that put themselves in a

0:30:09.720 --> 0:30:12.160
<v Speaker 1>nice position. Oh, by the way, Danny, you weren't here.

0:30:12.280 --> 0:30:17.320
<v Speaker 1>And I said this about Jalen Smith in the linebacker group. Yes,

0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:19.720
<v Speaker 1>seventeen game season, there's a stretch where you're gonna play

0:30:19.720 --> 0:30:22.320
<v Speaker 1>eleven games in a row. They're gonna need all these guys. Okay,

0:30:22.440 --> 0:30:24.840
<v Speaker 1>they're going to need all these guys. Kean O'Neill has

0:30:24.880 --> 0:30:29.160
<v Speaker 1>an injury history, Late Vanderest has an injury history. Jabril

0:30:29.280 --> 0:30:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Cox and Michael Parsons these are rookies, and Michael Parsons

0:30:32.160 --> 0:30:34.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't play football last year. So this sense that you

0:30:34.960 --> 0:30:37.320
<v Speaker 1>know what, cut Jaylen Smith, will trade him. You're gonna

0:30:37.360 --> 0:30:41.200
<v Speaker 1>need all these guys over the course seventeen games during

0:30:41.200 --> 0:30:43.280
<v Speaker 1>this season, So there's no reason to cut the guy

0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:45.160
<v Speaker 1>or anything like some of the drastic things we're seeing.

0:30:45.280 --> 0:30:47.800
<v Speaker 1>It's this man, let this thing play out, and let's

0:30:47.880 --> 0:30:50.080
<v Speaker 1>let's have some faith that dan quinn is going to

0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:53.040
<v Speaker 1>be able to utilize these guys correctly. Now, speaking of that,

0:30:53.480 --> 0:30:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Bay is the first game So you're gonna have

0:30:55.840 --> 0:30:58.520
<v Speaker 1>a nickel defense with your linebackers out here, because they've

0:30:58.560 --> 0:31:02.040
<v Speaker 1>got some outstanding weapons three group right receivers and Chris Godwin,

0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Mike Evans, and Antonio Brown. Then he got Rob Gronkowski

0:31:05.320 --> 0:31:07.480
<v Speaker 1>at tight end. Also got oj Howard coming back and

0:31:07.560 --> 0:31:09.959
<v Speaker 1>tight end for Tampa as well. So who are your

0:31:10.040 --> 0:31:13.000
<v Speaker 1>nickel linebackers right now in your opinion for this Tampa

0:31:13.040 --> 0:31:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Bay game. We'll start with you, Danny Oho. My man

0:31:15.880 --> 0:31:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Mica is definitely gonna be in there. Uh, you know,

0:31:19.320 --> 0:31:21.360
<v Speaker 1>it's a little tough man, because I haven't really been

0:31:21.360 --> 0:31:24.840
<v Speaker 1>able to see practice. I know I've seen my man

0:31:25.000 --> 0:31:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Jalen in coverage, um, and I'm not liking it. Right.

0:31:29.400 --> 0:31:31.200
<v Speaker 1>So if I'm gonna have to leave one of these

0:31:31.240 --> 0:31:33.320
<v Speaker 1>linebackers in there, I'm going with fifty five at the mic.

0:31:33.640 --> 0:31:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm putting Parsons opposite of the nickel so he can

0:31:37.080 --> 0:31:39.200
<v Speaker 1>play on that tight end a little bit, and and

0:31:39.200 --> 0:31:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I rode with that, put Jordan Lewis at the slot

0:31:41.400 --> 0:31:43.520
<v Speaker 1>and and we'll see what happens. And then if it

0:31:43.520 --> 0:31:46.160
<v Speaker 1>doesn't work out, I'm still not putting Jayal in there.

0:31:46.640 --> 0:31:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna give Hi I'm gonna give I'm gonna give

0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:51.280
<v Speaker 1>my man Parsons some time, right, because we can't go

0:31:51.320 --> 0:31:54.960
<v Speaker 1>into this game and forget that. Even if Parsons doesn't

0:31:54.960 --> 0:31:58.120
<v Speaker 1>perform how we expect him to, it's his first NFL game, right,

0:31:58.320 --> 0:32:00.440
<v Speaker 1>So what the expectation is for him to out there

0:32:00.440 --> 0:32:03.920
<v Speaker 1>in lockdown everybody, it's not realistic, all right, So give

0:32:03.960 --> 0:32:05.640
<v Speaker 1>him some time. Let him get out there. This is

0:32:05.640 --> 0:32:07.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a really big test for him, a really

0:32:07.600 --> 0:32:09.720
<v Speaker 1>good learning experience, and I think he'll get better from it.

0:32:09.840 --> 0:32:12.160
<v Speaker 1>So put eleven out there, Put fifty five so he

0:32:12.200 --> 0:32:16.400
<v Speaker 1>can get on a playoff Lenny, and then see what

0:32:16.480 --> 0:32:18.760
<v Speaker 1>see how it shakes out. Look, man, when you're talking

0:32:18.760 --> 0:32:21.240
<v Speaker 1>about Nickel personnel, we're basically talking about the starters, because

0:32:21.240 --> 0:32:24.240
<v Speaker 1>that's basically what every offense is going towards. Nowadays, it's

0:32:24.280 --> 0:32:27.600
<v Speaker 1>more spread offense. Everybody's starting an eleven personnel. Nobody's really

0:32:27.680 --> 0:32:30.080
<v Speaker 1>dropping out there in twelve or twenty one personnel. Everybody's

0:32:30.080 --> 0:32:31.720
<v Speaker 1>in the eleven person So when we talk about this

0:32:31.800 --> 0:32:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Nickel linebacking group, we're talking about a group that's gonna

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:36.680
<v Speaker 1>play probably seventy percent of the snaps out there. So basically,

0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:40.000
<v Speaker 1>your starters that for me, I'm gonna have to say

0:32:40.040 --> 0:32:42.680
<v Speaker 1>my nickel tandem now, it's not gonna happen, and it

0:32:42.720 --> 0:32:44.520
<v Speaker 1>ain't gonna happen because you know, I already know what

0:32:44.560 --> 0:32:46.400
<v Speaker 1>it is and they ain't gonna happen. But I would

0:32:46.440 --> 0:32:49.680
<v Speaker 1>love to see Parsons and Keyan O'Neil out there. I

0:32:49.760 --> 0:32:52.520
<v Speaker 1>felt like that tandem in Arizona when they played, I

0:32:52.600 --> 0:32:54.560
<v Speaker 1>felt like they fed off each other great. They're both

0:32:54.640 --> 0:32:57.640
<v Speaker 1>sideline and sideline guys, open field guys that can play

0:32:57.640 --> 0:32:59.640
<v Speaker 1>in space, and I think they can. You know, Keane

0:32:59.720 --> 0:33:02.320
<v Speaker 1>knew it is't the best coverage guy that there is,

0:33:02.400 --> 0:33:04.600
<v Speaker 1>but if they ask him to guard an in line

0:33:04.600 --> 0:33:07.120
<v Speaker 1>tighten or running back coming out the backfield, I think

0:33:07.120 --> 0:33:09.960
<v Speaker 1>he's more than capable of doing that. So I feel

0:33:10.000 --> 0:33:13.800
<v Speaker 1>like those two are best opportunities to pretty have a

0:33:13.880 --> 0:33:16.040
<v Speaker 1>good solid nickel defense. I mean, when you when you

0:33:16.040 --> 0:33:18.240
<v Speaker 1>talk about Keana know he's coming from safety. I'm not

0:33:18.280 --> 0:33:19.760
<v Speaker 1>sure how he's gonna do against the you know, in

0:33:19.800 --> 0:33:21.960
<v Speaker 1>the trenches and all that. But after watching this guy

0:33:22.000 --> 0:33:23.840
<v Speaker 1>at the point of attack, you know he arrives, he

0:33:23.920 --> 0:33:25.880
<v Speaker 1>arrives at the ball with violence. I mean, it's not

0:33:25.960 --> 0:33:28.720
<v Speaker 1>like leaky yardage where you know he's contacting the running

0:33:28.720 --> 0:33:30.480
<v Speaker 1>back and running backs falling forward for an extra three

0:33:30.480 --> 0:33:32.680
<v Speaker 1>to four yards. This is guy's stopping people dead in

0:33:32.760 --> 0:33:34.520
<v Speaker 1>their tracks or he's driving them back. So I think

0:33:34.560 --> 0:33:36.520
<v Speaker 1>he has what it takes to be an every down

0:33:36.560 --> 0:33:39.400
<v Speaker 1>linebacker in this league. And I think so far he's

0:33:39.400 --> 0:33:41.800
<v Speaker 1>performed the best as far as open field and covering

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:43.720
<v Speaker 1>than any other guys. And then we got you know,

0:33:43.760 --> 0:33:46.160
<v Speaker 1>Parson's over there, who's flying around the football. So I

0:33:46.200 --> 0:33:48.600
<v Speaker 1>would love for them to see. For the Cowboys that

0:33:48.680 --> 0:33:51.240
<v Speaker 1>have those two guys jot out there, it's not gonna happen.

0:33:51.280 --> 0:33:54.200
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be lv and Jaylen Smith going out there,

0:33:54.240 --> 0:33:55.640
<v Speaker 1>and then we're gonna have to go through our bumps

0:33:55.640 --> 0:33:58.040
<v Speaker 1>and bruises out there until they put the other two in.

0:33:58.120 --> 0:34:00.400
<v Speaker 1>But for me, that's that's who I would have out

0:34:00.400 --> 0:34:01.760
<v Speaker 1>there because you know, I feel like they give us

0:34:01.760 --> 0:34:04.360
<v Speaker 1>the best opportunity to play in space and that's where

0:34:04.360 --> 0:34:06.320
<v Speaker 1>this league is going. It's all space ball. Can you

0:34:06.320 --> 0:34:11.600
<v Speaker 1>see a package where it's Neil fifty five and Parsons

0:34:13.080 --> 0:34:15.360
<v Speaker 1>own and they treat they treat they treat Neil like

0:34:15.360 --> 0:34:17.640
<v Speaker 1>a walk down safety. So he's always gonna be down.

0:34:18.080 --> 0:34:19.680
<v Speaker 1>But who is he gonna be? Is he gonna be

0:34:19.680 --> 0:34:22.000
<v Speaker 1>walked oft on over the slot? It depends on who

0:34:22.520 --> 0:34:24.440
<v Speaker 1>who they want him to cover. I would say no,

0:34:24.719 --> 0:34:27.960
<v Speaker 1>only only because when an offense comes out and they

0:34:28.000 --> 0:34:30.960
<v Speaker 1>see that package, they're gonna know that if it's a pass,

0:34:31.040 --> 0:34:33.399
<v Speaker 1>that that defense got gotta be in zone because I mean,

0:34:33.520 --> 0:34:34.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's just gonna be and it's gonna be a

0:34:34.840 --> 0:34:37.319
<v Speaker 1>telltale because they're not gonna have Kean O'Neil, you know,

0:34:37.320 --> 0:34:38.759
<v Speaker 1>guarding a slot one on one. I don't. I don't

0:34:38.760 --> 0:34:40.600
<v Speaker 1>think that's a good matchup at all. So they're gonna

0:34:40.640 --> 0:34:42.799
<v Speaker 1>know that it's gonna always be zoned and they're gonna

0:34:42.800 --> 0:34:44.560
<v Speaker 1>have their zone beers out there for so it's gonna

0:34:44.560 --> 0:34:46.680
<v Speaker 1>be hard to disguise that type of package out there.

0:34:46.719 --> 0:34:49.239
<v Speaker 1>But I still think that's better than well, I mean,

0:34:49.280 --> 0:34:52.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's him playing the safety. Oh, it's him

0:34:52.080 --> 0:34:53.960
<v Speaker 1>playing the safety, right, So you got the two safeties

0:34:53.960 --> 0:34:56.640
<v Speaker 1>and a linebacker, right, but he's one of the safeties, okay,

0:34:56.680 --> 0:34:59.919
<v Speaker 1>and you still have a slot out there. But the sky, yeah,

0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:03.719
<v Speaker 1>I think the guys is out saying yeah. But if

0:35:03.760 --> 0:35:06.440
<v Speaker 1>you remember, if you remember dan Quinn. This guys was

0:35:06.920 --> 0:35:09.560
<v Speaker 1>they tried a little bit, but we knew exactly what

0:35:09.600 --> 0:35:11.800
<v Speaker 1>they were running, right, and they got out there and

0:35:11.840 --> 0:35:14.440
<v Speaker 1>they played the coverage. UM. So I mean you like

0:35:14.560 --> 0:35:17.160
<v Speaker 1>saying we're all dreaming, it's not gonna happen. We all

0:35:17.160 --> 0:35:18.719
<v Speaker 1>know what's gonna happen. It would be great though, what

0:35:18.800 --> 0:35:22.719
<v Speaker 1>you think about. So let me ask this question here

0:35:22.719 --> 0:35:25.040
<v Speaker 1>because we bring up Kean O'Neill who was with the

0:35:25.080 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta Falcons and the Falcons faced the Bucks twice a year. Um,

0:35:30.080 --> 0:35:33.920
<v Speaker 1>being NFC South team, So how much in terms of

0:35:34.440 --> 0:35:37.160
<v Speaker 1>hint and I know Tom Brady was there last year

0:35:37.239 --> 0:35:39.600
<v Speaker 1>it was just first year, but just an ability to

0:35:39.680 --> 0:35:42.440
<v Speaker 1>have spent time prepping and watching Tampa Bay. How much

0:35:42.440 --> 0:35:44.920
<v Speaker 1>do you think that factors into them putting him out

0:35:44.960 --> 0:35:49.200
<v Speaker 1>on the field in a Nickel package in your opinion? Uh? Me,

0:35:50.000 --> 0:35:53.040
<v Speaker 1>not really. UM, I think this is this is entirely

0:35:53.080 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 1>good and sometimes you have some guys that are out

0:35:55.680 --> 0:35:57.839
<v Speaker 1>there being able to recognize some of that stuff, but

0:35:58.200 --> 0:36:01.240
<v Speaker 1>it's not often and coaches really don't plan on putting

0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:04.560
<v Speaker 1>guys out there specifically for that reason. Right, It's a plus,

0:36:04.960 --> 0:36:06.920
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think they will be out there just

0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:09.560
<v Speaker 1>for that. Yeah, I think he can help them out

0:36:09.600 --> 0:36:11.840
<v Speaker 1>as far as letting them know, you know what, you know,

0:36:11.920 --> 0:36:14.399
<v Speaker 1>Mike Evans likes to run what Godwin likes to run,

0:36:14.520 --> 0:36:16.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe what Howard likes to run in that

0:36:16.320 --> 0:36:18.840
<v Speaker 1>tight end position. But as far as giving them that,

0:36:18.840 --> 0:36:20.919
<v Speaker 1>you know, the nuances and all that stuff, I don't

0:36:20.960 --> 0:36:22.920
<v Speaker 1>think it'd be that big of a big of a

0:36:23.000 --> 0:36:25.560
<v Speaker 1>thing um for them going forward with him being a

0:36:25.760 --> 0:36:30.640
<v Speaker 1>being that played against Tampa Bay all those years. All right,

0:36:30.760 --> 0:36:34.000
<v Speaker 1>let's get another break in here. I've got several topics

0:36:34.000 --> 0:36:35.719
<v Speaker 1>I want to get to here. We got to take

0:36:35.760 --> 0:36:39.399
<v Speaker 1>a look at hard knocks um, your thoughts on Dak

0:36:39.440 --> 0:36:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott most likely not getting any snaps

0:36:42.239 --> 0:36:44.960
<v Speaker 1>in the preseason. Let's dive into that. I'm newly restructs

0:40:49.800 --> 0:40:54.520
<v Speaker 1>drafted an offensive tackle instead of drafting I was screaming up.

0:40:54.719 --> 0:40:56.680
<v Speaker 1>I was screaming up from the raptors all last year.

0:40:56.719 --> 0:41:01.240
<v Speaker 1>That's no secret. I think we did good with Parsons.

0:41:01.239 --> 0:41:04.759
<v Speaker 1>By the way. By the way, Rashawn Slater is having

0:41:04.760 --> 0:41:07.040
<v Speaker 1>a good training camp apparently with the Chargers and the

0:41:07.080 --> 0:41:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys will see him week two, so Parsons later. I

0:41:12.640 --> 0:41:14.239
<v Speaker 1>think we should be able to see something a week

0:41:14.239 --> 0:41:16.680
<v Speaker 1>two and then you can start to go from there.

0:41:16.680 --> 0:41:21.640
<v Speaker 1>No Hard Knocks Episode two air Tuesday night. What were

0:41:21.680 --> 0:41:25.120
<v Speaker 1>your initial thoughts about the show? Start with you, mister positivity.

0:41:25.200 --> 0:41:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Danny Krept Listen, I think I think Hard Knox is

0:41:29.560 --> 0:41:32.719
<v Speaker 1>a little different now because it's the Cowboys. I said

0:41:32.760 --> 0:41:34.759
<v Speaker 1>it before and I'll say it again. I knew this

0:41:34.840 --> 0:41:37.640
<v Speaker 1>was going to be the Zeke and Dak show. It

0:41:37.719 --> 0:41:41.319
<v Speaker 1>is literally all about Zeke and Dak. They did have

0:41:42.040 --> 0:41:45.840
<v Speaker 1>have my Man in there. I forget his name was

0:41:45.880 --> 0:41:48.120
<v Speaker 1>at the Man, Yeah, So they had him on there.

0:41:48.120 --> 0:41:50.759
<v Speaker 1>They had a special little story on Yeah, which was

0:41:50.840 --> 0:41:53.839
<v Speaker 1>which was great to see some insighter that I see

0:41:53.840 --> 0:41:56.200
<v Speaker 1>his mom at the game, you know, dressed in her

0:41:56.200 --> 0:41:58.040
<v Speaker 1>culture and all that stuff. I thought, I thought that

0:41:58.080 --> 0:42:00.719
<v Speaker 1>was really amazing. And then right after that you go

0:42:00.800 --> 0:42:03.719
<v Speaker 1>back to Zeke. You know this with is um uh

0:42:04.120 --> 0:42:06.719
<v Speaker 1>sunflower seeds. The whole like the whole game was about

0:42:06.800 --> 0:42:08.759
<v Speaker 1>Zeke and subflower seeds, and you know, so I'm like,

0:42:08.960 --> 0:42:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I like the show. I like where they're going with it.

0:42:11.160 --> 0:42:14.440
<v Speaker 1>But I really enjoyed the show the previous shows because

0:42:14.640 --> 0:42:17.200
<v Speaker 1>they showed a lot more of those bubble guys and

0:42:17.280 --> 0:42:19.400
<v Speaker 1>the lifestyle that they live and how much pressure they

0:42:19.400 --> 0:42:20.920
<v Speaker 1>were under and trying to figure out if they were

0:42:20.920 --> 0:42:23.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna make the team for me, because that's the position

0:42:23.600 --> 0:42:26.200
<v Speaker 1>that I was in. I'd like to see more of that,

0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:29.560
<v Speaker 1>but you know it was good. Not much Mike McCarthy again,

0:42:30.280 --> 0:42:31.960
<v Speaker 1>we saw a little bit, little bit of Jarry. But

0:42:32.200 --> 0:42:33.719
<v Speaker 1>one of these days knew we're gonna see a little

0:42:33.719 --> 0:42:36.359
<v Speaker 1>personality come from McCarthy and see what he's all about.

0:42:36.800 --> 0:42:39.600
<v Speaker 1>One day we're gonna see. I ain't gonna lie. I'm

0:42:39.600 --> 0:42:41.799
<v Speaker 1>thinking Hard Knocks right now, it's pretty boring. I mean,

0:42:41.880 --> 0:42:43.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I'm sitting there, I'm like, man, well, what

0:42:43.920 --> 0:42:46.560
<v Speaker 1>happened to the flair? I mean, like the previous Hard

0:42:46.640 --> 0:42:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Knocks seasons, there was always you get to see all

0:42:49.160 --> 0:42:52.400
<v Speaker 1>the dudes joking around in the locker room, playing pranks

0:42:52.400 --> 0:42:55.200
<v Speaker 1>on each other, just talking noise left and right, you know,

0:42:55.200 --> 0:42:57.160
<v Speaker 1>getting ready to line up somebody. I'm gonna smoke you

0:42:57.239 --> 0:42:58.920
<v Speaker 1>or I'm gonna burn you, I'm gonna lock you up.

0:42:58.960 --> 0:43:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Like it was a lot of that in them Hard

0:43:01.160 --> 0:43:04.560
<v Speaker 1>Knock seasons. Now it's just it's just like a reality show.

0:43:04.600 --> 0:43:07.759
<v Speaker 1>It's like keeping up with Dah and Zeke right now.

0:43:07.800 --> 0:43:10.120
<v Speaker 1>And and I understand, you know there's stars, they're you know,

0:43:10.160 --> 0:43:12.320
<v Speaker 1>faces of the franchise. You know, they're a couple of

0:43:12.320 --> 0:43:14.520
<v Speaker 1>stars in the NFL. You know that just got paid

0:43:14.560 --> 0:43:17.240
<v Speaker 1>all that good stuff. But man, I want to see more,

0:43:17.360 --> 0:43:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, I want to see more of the

0:43:18.640 --> 0:43:20.640
<v Speaker 1>bubble guys what they're going through, you know, because it's

0:43:20.680 --> 0:43:22.799
<v Speaker 1>stressful for them right now. You know, they're they're they're

0:43:22.840 --> 0:43:25.160
<v Speaker 1>fighting and scratching and clawed just to make it onto

0:43:25.160 --> 0:43:27.720
<v Speaker 1>the fifty three man roster. So I'd like to see

0:43:27.800 --> 0:43:30.640
<v Speaker 1>them dive more into that, into what they got going on,

0:43:30.840 --> 0:43:32.960
<v Speaker 1>seeing how they pick up the playbook under Like, man,

0:43:33.000 --> 0:43:35.479
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how I'm I'm gonna perform this preseason game,

0:43:35.560 --> 0:43:37.759
<v Speaker 1>Like you know, see what these guys are going through.

0:43:37.760 --> 0:43:39.759
<v Speaker 1>I think that'd be more authentic, and I think it

0:43:39.760 --> 0:43:41.520
<v Speaker 1>would be a little bit better and better for TV.

0:43:42.000 --> 0:43:43.919
<v Speaker 1>Right now. I feel like it's just a reality show

0:43:44.000 --> 0:43:45.960
<v Speaker 1>right now. And you know, like like I said, you

0:43:46.080 --> 0:43:48.000
<v Speaker 1>got to keep up with the stars. But I want

0:43:48.000 --> 0:43:49.960
<v Speaker 1>to see a little bit more of those those guys

0:43:50.440 --> 0:43:52.719
<v Speaker 1>in the trenches, those guys that are battling for that

0:43:52.760 --> 0:43:55.040
<v Speaker 1>fifty three man spot, and it show a little bit

0:43:55.040 --> 0:43:57.960
<v Speaker 1>more camaraderie, shows some more joking around with other people.

0:43:57.960 --> 0:44:00.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know there's more personalities than than he

0:44:00.120 --> 0:44:01.719
<v Speaker 1>can doc out there. We got some funny cats on

0:44:01.760 --> 0:44:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the team, so I think it's pretty boring so far.

0:44:04.719 --> 0:44:08.080
<v Speaker 1>But I did like Azor Kamara's part in the show

0:44:08.120 --> 0:44:10.239
<v Speaker 1>where you know, his family got to see him for

0:44:10.239 --> 0:44:12.839
<v Speaker 1>the first time playing in the International Football League, first

0:44:12.840 --> 0:44:14.440
<v Speaker 1>time watching them play, and he ended up going in

0:44:14.440 --> 0:44:16.680
<v Speaker 1>there and getting the would be game when it's sacked

0:44:16.760 --> 0:44:19.600
<v Speaker 1>but Arizona fall started and then ended up giving them

0:44:19.600 --> 0:44:21.600
<v Speaker 1>life again. But I think it was you know, I

0:44:21.640 --> 0:44:23.719
<v Speaker 1>think that part of the show was definitely great and

0:44:23.760 --> 0:44:26.879
<v Speaker 1>definitely worth watching. But so far this season, I'm kind

0:44:26.880 --> 0:44:29.319
<v Speaker 1>of bored with it. I will say. I do also

0:44:29.360 --> 0:44:32.200
<v Speaker 1>want to see more competition. Ye seeing one on ones

0:44:32.840 --> 0:44:35.280
<v Speaker 1>and now he saw the Mojo moment for the last episode.

0:44:35.320 --> 0:44:37.799
<v Speaker 1>We ain't seen, you know, any of those moments to

0:44:37.840 --> 0:44:40.560
<v Speaker 1>where it's person situations and you see like a CD

0:44:40.760 --> 0:44:43.560
<v Speaker 1>going against tray Undude, Like we should see that repeatedly.

0:44:43.680 --> 0:44:46.000
<v Speaker 1>We should see Michael Parson's going against the Zeke, you

0:44:46.000 --> 0:44:47.279
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying that one on one we should

0:44:47.280 --> 0:44:49.319
<v Speaker 1>be able to watch that and see the reaction on

0:44:49.400 --> 0:44:51.239
<v Speaker 1>how it happened, to see how excited one is to

0:44:51.320 --> 0:44:53.160
<v Speaker 1>win and how they do talk back to each other,

0:44:53.560 --> 0:44:55.239
<v Speaker 1>Like we haven't been able to see any of that.

0:44:55.239 --> 0:44:59.160
<v Speaker 1>It's really been like I said, but I will say this,

0:44:59.400 --> 0:45:01.960
<v Speaker 1>I do like what they did with the Marcus Lawrence

0:45:02.000 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 1>and his family, how they saw him, you know, at

0:45:03.600 --> 0:45:05.400
<v Speaker 1>the beach and all that. It kind of got to

0:45:05.480 --> 0:45:07.719
<v Speaker 1>humanize these guys to where, you know, everybody just kind

0:45:07.719 --> 0:45:10.440
<v Speaker 1>of sees them as football players football football twenty four seven,

0:45:10.600 --> 0:45:12.480
<v Speaker 1>and we kind of got to see, you know, a

0:45:12.560 --> 0:45:14.400
<v Speaker 1>little little a little bit of lightened to you know,

0:45:14.440 --> 0:45:16.520
<v Speaker 1>the Marcus Lawrence and how how his family is and

0:45:16.520 --> 0:45:17.960
<v Speaker 1>how they can make it a tradition to come out

0:45:18.000 --> 0:45:20.120
<v Speaker 1>to ox North. So I like that part as well.

0:45:20.160 --> 0:45:22.360
<v Speaker 1>But like you said, man, we gotta see some more competition.

0:45:22.400 --> 0:45:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I want to see some more hits thrown fights, something

0:45:25.760 --> 0:45:29.600
<v Speaker 1>we see. We haven't seen much of it all right,

0:45:29.680 --> 0:45:34.560
<v Speaker 1>since you guys are TV producers now, he asked us

0:45:34.560 --> 0:45:41.680
<v Speaker 1>the question. So so, so I'm going to I'm going

0:45:41.760 --> 0:45:44.000
<v Speaker 1>to defend the show a little bit in this way.

0:45:44.480 --> 0:45:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Number One, I don't know what they can and can't

0:45:47.400 --> 0:45:51.440
<v Speaker 1>do because of pro of COVID protocols. Because if you remember,

0:45:51.440 --> 0:45:53.000
<v Speaker 1>in some of the episodes they did last year, they

0:45:53.000 --> 0:45:55.719
<v Speaker 1>went to guys houses and they got to hang out

0:45:55.800 --> 0:45:58.160
<v Speaker 1>with him, So you haven't seen too much of that.

0:45:58.280 --> 0:46:00.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, they did see show you and TD Lamb's

0:46:00.480 --> 0:46:03.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, residence in hotel room and you saw Zeke there.

0:46:03.760 --> 0:46:05.880
<v Speaker 1>So that part I do wonder about. And here's a

0:46:06.040 --> 0:46:08.799
<v Speaker 1>really really big part that most folks don't know. And

0:46:08.840 --> 0:46:11.520
<v Speaker 1>I found this out because I was sitting around talking

0:46:11.560 --> 0:46:14.760
<v Speaker 1>to Rich down report the media party and he said

0:46:15.080 --> 0:46:16.879
<v Speaker 1>he has to go. He's like, yeah, I gotta get

0:46:16.920 --> 0:46:20.759
<v Speaker 1>back because I have to edit hert knocks And we

0:46:20.760 --> 0:46:22.000
<v Speaker 1>were talking to the Hall of fameers like yeah, I

0:46:22.040 --> 0:46:24.680
<v Speaker 1>gotta get back. So Rich is basically in there. Rich

0:46:24.880 --> 0:46:26.719
<v Speaker 1>is the Turk for hard Knocks, where he goes in

0:46:26.760 --> 0:46:29.560
<v Speaker 1>there says take that out. Yeah, that's not gonna be

0:46:29.560 --> 0:46:32.040
<v Speaker 1>in here. So I do wonder how much of the

0:46:32.480 --> 0:46:35.040
<v Speaker 1>how much of the eraser has he gone in there?

0:46:35.080 --> 0:46:37.960
<v Speaker 1>For now? I know Rich and McCarthy are boys. They're

0:46:38.000 --> 0:46:40.759
<v Speaker 1>both Pittsburgh guys. I mean, they're boys. There was something

0:46:40.760 --> 0:46:43.440
<v Speaker 1>that may not have made McCarthy look good. Maybe did

0:46:43.719 --> 0:46:45.520
<v Speaker 1>he Rich say Nope, I don't want that in there

0:46:45.520 --> 0:46:47.480
<v Speaker 1>because I don't want McCarthy to do dad, you know,

0:46:47.520 --> 0:46:52.279
<v Speaker 1>to ever look like Hugh Jackson did, Campo did during

0:46:52.360 --> 0:46:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Hard Knocks because Dave Campo and Hugh Jackson did not

0:46:55.120 --> 0:46:57.600
<v Speaker 1>come off good, and I know that's been an issue

0:46:57.600 --> 0:46:59.560
<v Speaker 1>for McCarthy. They want to make sure the guy looks good.

0:46:59.560 --> 0:47:02.440
<v Speaker 1>So I do wonder how much creative control the Cowboys

0:47:02.440 --> 0:47:06.000
<v Speaker 1>have have exhibited in making this really in the episode

0:47:06.000 --> 0:47:08.560
<v Speaker 1>two of my opinion, just kind of snoozing. Yeah, and

0:47:08.840 --> 0:47:10.560
<v Speaker 1>that is true. That is true. I didn't realize that,

0:47:10.600 --> 0:47:12.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, they got to go in here and kind

0:47:12.200 --> 0:47:13.799
<v Speaker 1>of erase some of the stuff. So maybe they did

0:47:13.840 --> 0:47:16.839
<v Speaker 1>take some of the juicy stuff out. But I don't know, man,

0:47:17.120 --> 0:47:19.120
<v Speaker 1>I still think it's kind of boring right now. They

0:47:19.160 --> 0:47:21.480
<v Speaker 1>need to go ahead and show a little bit more competition.

0:47:21.760 --> 0:47:23.359
<v Speaker 1>What you think about that? Yeah, listen, I don't think

0:47:23.440 --> 0:47:25.120
<v Speaker 1>Richard's going in there telling them not to show the

0:47:25.120 --> 0:47:28.600
<v Speaker 1>bubble players. You know that he might be. He might

0:47:28.640 --> 0:47:30.279
<v Speaker 1>be going in they're telling them, you know, how to

0:47:30.280 --> 0:47:32.560
<v Speaker 1>make McCarthy look, how to make Jerry look. But as

0:47:32.560 --> 0:47:35.200
<v Speaker 1>far as what we're asking for, showing competition on the field,

0:47:35.280 --> 0:47:36.799
<v Speaker 1>like we already know, they're not going to show us

0:47:36.800 --> 0:47:39.399
<v Speaker 1>plays and schemes and stuff based off what we saw

0:47:39.440 --> 0:47:43.360
<v Speaker 1>it last season when they did the Cowboys Night, and

0:47:43.440 --> 0:47:45.120
<v Speaker 1>we all went to watch it on TV and we

0:47:45.200 --> 0:47:47.520
<v Speaker 1>just saw the sideline, so we know they're not going

0:47:47.600 --> 0:47:50.640
<v Speaker 1>to show that, but we're just asking for straight competition,

0:47:50.760 --> 0:47:55.080
<v Speaker 1>competitive rips. Seeing these guys in their competitive element and

0:47:55.080 --> 0:47:57.120
<v Speaker 1>then seeing the reaction to that. Right, some of the

0:47:57.120 --> 0:47:59.239
<v Speaker 1>best stuff that we saw with Dez when they want

0:47:59.320 --> 0:48:03.640
<v Speaker 1>all the nothing his competitive spirit you can't guard. Yeah, yeah,

0:48:03.960 --> 0:48:06.960
<v Speaker 1>then you seeing the other players like who you're talking to? Girl,

0:48:06.960 --> 0:48:09.319
<v Speaker 1>So I'm gonna get like, like people enjoyed that. They

0:48:09.360 --> 0:48:11.879
<v Speaker 1>want to see that fire and they love you for that.

0:48:12.000 --> 0:48:14.320
<v Speaker 1>And I don't feel like we've seen that from for anybody,

0:48:14.320 --> 0:48:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Like we see Parsons talking about talking a lot about football.

0:48:16.840 --> 0:48:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Outside of that, we haven't seen anybody getting getting into

0:48:21.120 --> 0:48:23.600
<v Speaker 1>that type of element? Are you here? When Aiden was

0:48:24.080 --> 0:48:28.279
<v Speaker 1>kind of just like a quality control guy here? And

0:48:28.360 --> 0:48:30.239
<v Speaker 1>that's what cracks me up about it the boat Like

0:48:30.239 --> 0:48:31.799
<v Speaker 1>when I when I look at Aid and how far

0:48:31.880 --> 0:48:33.839
<v Speaker 1>he's climbed because he's a deep as a line coach now.

0:48:33.880 --> 0:48:35.560
<v Speaker 1>But when I was here back in I think it

0:48:35.560 --> 0:48:37.239
<v Speaker 1>was twenty fourteen, it was right before you got back

0:48:37.280 --> 0:48:39.879
<v Speaker 1>in twenty fifteen, he was like a quality control guy.

0:48:39.960 --> 0:48:41.560
<v Speaker 1>He was just you know, helping out on scout team,

0:48:41.640 --> 0:48:43.839
<v Speaker 1>running and running routes for us, and to see him

0:48:43.920 --> 0:48:46.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of grow into that deep as a line coach,

0:48:46.160 --> 0:48:50.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's hilarious to me, mister positivity, I gotta, I

0:48:50.719 --> 0:48:52.920
<v Speaker 1>gotta do it. Let me see what Big Cat here.

0:48:52.960 --> 0:48:56.520
<v Speaker 1>When Aiden was here running around on quality control. Yes, okay,

0:48:56.560 --> 0:49:00.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm just because I'm yes, good, Okay, was here and

0:49:00.320 --> 0:49:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Big Cat has been here since then in the churches

0:49:03.000 --> 0:49:08.040
<v Speaker 1>with those guys. But because I saw him with the

0:49:08.040 --> 0:49:13.879
<v Speaker 1>bags and stuff, I was like the big kid, Okay, yeah, yeah, listen,

0:49:13.880 --> 0:49:17.920
<v Speaker 1>you gotta do what you gotta do, guess. So I'll

0:49:17.920 --> 0:49:21.320
<v Speaker 1>defend I'll defend it in this sense because we spoke

0:49:21.360 --> 0:49:24.920
<v Speaker 1>about this before and when I said, whoever, whatever coordinator

0:49:24.920 --> 0:49:27.040
<v Speaker 1>you brought in here, you needed to let him bring

0:49:27.040 --> 0:49:31.240
<v Speaker 1>in his guys who could teach his system. So Aiden,

0:49:31.280 --> 0:49:34.160
<v Speaker 1>it was with dan Quinn in Atlanta and Big Cat

0:49:34.320 --> 0:49:37.480
<v Speaker 1>dan Quinn don't have a working relationship. So based on

0:49:37.520 --> 0:49:40.399
<v Speaker 1>its atrocious is what we saw from Mike Nolan last year.

0:49:40.960 --> 0:49:42.920
<v Speaker 1>I felt that dan Quinn should be able to get

0:49:42.960 --> 0:49:44.920
<v Speaker 1>his guys and he did on the front and the

0:49:44.920 --> 0:49:47.440
<v Speaker 1>back ends, and dan quinne if if you're out there

0:49:47.520 --> 0:49:49.239
<v Speaker 1>training camp like I was, you see him doing a

0:49:49.280 --> 0:49:51.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of work with the D line, So he's actually

0:49:51.760 --> 0:49:54.399
<v Speaker 1>making sure that Aiden is getting more what he wants done.

0:49:54.440 --> 0:49:57.799
<v Speaker 1>So I'm defending it that way because I just felt

0:49:57.840 --> 0:50:00.359
<v Speaker 1>like they needed to give the defensive coordinator what he

0:50:00.400 --> 0:50:03.120
<v Speaker 1>needed to and I saw what they did with Christopher Sharp,

0:50:03.239 --> 0:50:05.560
<v Speaker 1>and Christoph Sharpe wanted to bring in his own linebacker coach,

0:50:05.640 --> 0:50:08.279
<v Speaker 1>Michael Barrow, and they were like, Nah, we already got

0:50:08.280 --> 0:50:12.360
<v Speaker 1>a guy who's here, and that didn't work out at all. Yeah,

0:50:12.239 --> 0:50:16.439
<v Speaker 1>that's true. I guess when you come bloom, so I guess.

0:50:16.440 --> 0:50:18.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean you want guys that come in, you know,

0:50:18.239 --> 0:50:20.000
<v Speaker 1>to teach your system that's been under your system. So

0:50:20.000 --> 0:50:22.320
<v Speaker 1>I can understand that for sure. But I got a

0:50:22.400 --> 0:50:24.560
<v Speaker 1>question for both of y'all. Does this seemed like to

0:50:24.640 --> 0:50:28.120
<v Speaker 1>y'all that most defensive coordinators or D line coaches, because

0:50:28.160 --> 0:50:29.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean it was like it was it was Rob Bryan,

0:50:30.440 --> 0:50:32.640
<v Speaker 1>it was Marinelli was our DC. He was a D

0:50:32.760 --> 0:50:34.880
<v Speaker 1>line coach. Dan who is the DC, he's a D

0:50:34.960 --> 0:50:37.799
<v Speaker 1>line coach. When I was in Jacksonville, our DC, he

0:50:37.880 --> 0:50:39.480
<v Speaker 1>was a D line coach. I mean, it just feels

0:50:39.520 --> 0:50:41.640
<v Speaker 1>like I would say this, I had mil Tucker, who

0:50:41.760 --> 0:50:46.120
<v Speaker 1>was defensive backs backs. TAB never had a defensive backs

0:50:46.520 --> 0:50:49.320
<v Speaker 1>coach be the DC because then everything were favorite of

0:50:49.440 --> 0:50:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the secondary, you know, and we never had that. Everything

0:50:51.960 --> 0:50:54.160
<v Speaker 1>here has always been about we got to put the

0:50:54.200 --> 0:50:56.239
<v Speaker 1>defensive line in the best position they can be in

0:50:56.360 --> 0:50:58.359
<v Speaker 1>and y'all just feed off of that. I just never

0:50:58.400 --> 0:51:00.200
<v Speaker 1>I just I just always wondered if it was like that.

0:51:00.280 --> 0:51:01.680
<v Speaker 1>But I guess as you got a dB coach, I

0:51:01.680 --> 0:51:07.160
<v Speaker 1>mean sounded a little jealous their church, they put us

0:51:07.160 --> 0:51:13.960
<v Speaker 1>in some afantageous positions. Right. Well, I'll go back to uh,

0:51:14.120 --> 0:51:16.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, Mike Zimmer was here, he was a DB's coach,

0:51:16.120 --> 0:51:20.359
<v Speaker 1>he's a coordinator. Dave Campo was a dB dB coach

0:51:20.440 --> 0:51:23.000
<v Speaker 1>before he became the coordinator on their Super Bowl thirty team.

0:51:23.040 --> 0:51:26.080
<v Speaker 1>So they have they've had guys who've been uh, you know,

0:51:26.200 --> 0:51:29.000
<v Speaker 1>defensive back coaches in the past. So so we have

0:51:29.160 --> 0:51:32.319
<v Speaker 1>seen that Brian Stewart, who was a defensive coordinator under

0:51:32.360 --> 0:51:35.120
<v Speaker 1>way his first year here. Brian was a defensive backs

0:51:35.120 --> 0:51:39.319
<v Speaker 1>coach when he came over from the Chargers. So it's there,

0:51:39.360 --> 0:51:41.240
<v Speaker 1>and then of course you start looking at Bill Belichick

0:51:41.280 --> 0:51:44.879
<v Speaker 1>and Pete Carroll. These guys were during their time. So

0:51:45.920 --> 0:51:48.280
<v Speaker 1>that's true. So we've seen Tom Landry and people forget

0:51:48.280 --> 0:51:51.239
<v Speaker 1>Tom Landry is a former defensive back uh uh at

0:51:51.280 --> 0:51:54.040
<v Speaker 1>the University of Texas in the NFL, then became the

0:51:54.080 --> 0:51:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Giants defensive coordinator and helped put in that flex defense.

0:51:56.680 --> 0:52:01.080
<v Speaker 1>So I think, what is if when he was here,

0:52:01.360 --> 0:52:04.239
<v Speaker 1>if we would have had a defensive coordinator that was

0:52:04.360 --> 0:52:07.400
<v Speaker 1>a dB coach, he would have never got to go

0:52:07.440 --> 0:52:09.680
<v Speaker 1>to Jacksonville because he would have got paid. They would

0:52:09.680 --> 0:52:13.000
<v Speaker 1>have showed him their respect. But you know, it didn't happen.

0:52:13.080 --> 0:52:16.000
<v Speaker 1>So they ended up paying d law huntymon. They paid

0:52:16.120 --> 0:52:18.680
<v Speaker 1>D what they paid other guys on the defensive line

0:52:18.680 --> 0:52:21.560
<v Speaker 1>before they would paid defensive backs because the defensive coordinator

0:52:21.920 --> 0:52:25.000
<v Speaker 1>was it D line coach. I feel you sadies act

0:52:25.000 --> 0:52:27.000
<v Speaker 1>been paid here since I mean, who was the last

0:52:27.040 --> 0:52:29.400
<v Speaker 1>safety they got paid here? Was? It was? It was

0:52:29.480 --> 0:52:32.560
<v Speaker 1>sensible and then they got rid of him that right,

0:52:33.400 --> 0:52:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, so I pretty much knew I wasn't gonna

0:52:36.000 --> 0:52:37.319
<v Speaker 1>get paid here. I knew I was on to weigh

0:52:37.360 --> 0:52:39.839
<v Speaker 1>yall that last. But no, they don't don't let church

0:52:39.880 --> 0:52:42.960
<v Speaker 1>for you. They paid you while you were hurt. They

0:52:43.400 --> 0:52:48.040
<v Speaker 1>got the discount check on that one, but they didn't

0:52:48.040 --> 0:52:49.279
<v Speaker 1>look out for me because I was coming in with

0:52:49.280 --> 0:52:52.160
<v Speaker 1>the achilles I was. I signed my contract rolling in

0:52:52.200 --> 0:52:54.840
<v Speaker 1>here on a scooter. So shout out to Jared. He

0:52:54.880 --> 0:52:59.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't shave a nothing. Man came. What was my man?

0:52:59.080 --> 0:53:03.200
<v Speaker 1>George had with the beer going it was It wasn't

0:53:03.200 --> 0:53:05.080
<v Speaker 1>a good look, but I was. I was on trying

0:53:05.160 --> 0:53:10.960
<v Speaker 1>times back then. So the Cowboys will take on the

0:53:11.160 --> 0:53:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Houston Texans Saturday night at and T Stadium. It is

0:53:14.000 --> 0:53:17.160
<v Speaker 1>the technical dress rehearsal. Mike McCarthy has already said that

0:53:17.280 --> 0:53:19.840
<v Speaker 1>no starters are going to play in that last preseason

0:53:19.880 --> 0:53:21.879
<v Speaker 1>game against Jacksonville. They will treat that as a game

0:53:21.920 --> 0:53:24.960
<v Speaker 1>for guys trying to make the team. Um, Dak Prescott

0:53:25.440 --> 0:53:27.840
<v Speaker 1>is not going to play. Mike McCarthy stay, he wouldn't

0:53:27.840 --> 0:53:29.520
<v Speaker 1>be surprised if he didn't. Teeny snaps, which is just

0:53:29.560 --> 0:53:30.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, you guys have been around the block. You

0:53:31.000 --> 0:53:33.239
<v Speaker 1>know he's not playing, as Ellen's not playing. How do

0:53:33.239 --> 0:53:36.040
<v Speaker 1>you feel about twenty two one four basically twenty one

0:53:36.080 --> 0:53:38.800
<v Speaker 1>and four two one four not getting any snaps in

0:53:38.880 --> 0:53:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the preseason and their first action is going to be

0:53:41.280 --> 0:53:45.640
<v Speaker 1>against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Week one. Well, well, to me,

0:53:45.960 --> 0:53:48.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be honest with you, Um, before the injury,

0:53:48.360 --> 0:53:50.920
<v Speaker 1>before Dak's injury to his shoulder, out have been like, man,

0:53:50.920 --> 0:53:52.920
<v Speaker 1>come on, we gotta get this guy at least, you know,

0:53:53.000 --> 0:53:55.680
<v Speaker 1>one or two series in this whole preseason because he

0:53:55.719 --> 0:53:57.400
<v Speaker 1>hasn't played in such a long time. He hasn't been

0:53:57.440 --> 0:53:59.759
<v Speaker 1>around live bullets in such a long time. But after

0:53:59.800 --> 0:54:02.400
<v Speaker 1>that injury to his shoulder, you know, I don't think

0:54:02.800 --> 0:54:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the risk doesn't The risk doesn't outweigh a reward like

0:54:05.640 --> 0:54:07.600
<v Speaker 1>or the risk whatever. Either way, it doesn't. It doesn't

0:54:07.800 --> 0:54:09.560
<v Speaker 1>make sense to me because if he goes out there

0:54:09.560 --> 0:54:12.759
<v Speaker 1>and let's just say he suffered some fluke injury, I mean,

0:54:12.760 --> 0:54:15.560
<v Speaker 1>what's the whole season's down the drain. And if he doesn't,

0:54:15.600 --> 0:54:17.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean he played a preseason game, which doesn't matter

0:54:17.880 --> 0:54:20.000
<v Speaker 1>so to me, and in the Dak thing, I have

0:54:20.120 --> 0:54:22.520
<v Speaker 1>no problem with him not playing. Zeke on the other hand,

0:54:22.880 --> 0:54:24.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he hasn't played in the preseason game and

0:54:24.719 --> 0:54:28.080
<v Speaker 1>what since his rookie year maybe, and then each year

0:54:28.120 --> 0:54:30.080
<v Speaker 1>after that has been a decline. I just want to

0:54:30.120 --> 0:54:32.279
<v Speaker 1>see him go out there and at least get one

0:54:32.360 --> 0:54:33.880
<v Speaker 1>or two one or two series out there. I'm not

0:54:33.920 --> 0:54:35.440
<v Speaker 1>saying he has to play the whole game or to

0:54:35.680 --> 0:54:37.840
<v Speaker 1>get you know, fifteen carriers or anything like that, but

0:54:37.880 --> 0:54:39.279
<v Speaker 1>just let him get his feet wet a little bit,

0:54:39.320 --> 0:54:41.040
<v Speaker 1>let him, you know, get acclimented to being out there.

0:54:41.080 --> 0:54:42.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to go him to go out there

0:54:42.719 --> 0:54:45.040
<v Speaker 1>against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which is a fierce defense.

0:54:45.120 --> 0:54:47.759
<v Speaker 1>That ain't no defense that's just you know, Johnny Come

0:54:47.840 --> 0:54:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Lately or whatever type of defense. This is a fierce

0:54:49.640 --> 0:54:51.319
<v Speaker 1>defense out there. I don't want him to go out

0:54:51.320 --> 0:54:53.040
<v Speaker 1>there and just be man shell shocked and getting his

0:54:53.040 --> 0:54:55.239
<v Speaker 1>head knocked off out there. So I'd like to see

0:54:55.280 --> 0:54:56.920
<v Speaker 1>him get a couple rests, but he's not gonna do it.

0:54:56.960 --> 0:54:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully he comes into that Tampa Bay game ready to

0:54:59.200 --> 0:55:02.279
<v Speaker 1>roll because he won't have any preseason snaps. I'm kind

0:55:02.280 --> 0:55:06.160
<v Speaker 1>of opposite the Church on the Zeke thing. Seventeen game season.

0:55:06.680 --> 0:55:08.440
<v Speaker 1>The way that I expect them to play and I

0:55:08.480 --> 0:55:11.920
<v Speaker 1>hope that they play, is that this guy gets more snaps,

0:55:11.920 --> 0:55:14.400
<v Speaker 1>more runs than he's gotten in his entire career. Right

0:55:15.120 --> 0:55:17.839
<v Speaker 1>what we know about Zeke is if you feed him

0:55:17.840 --> 0:55:20.720
<v Speaker 1>and he's protecting the ball. He's going to make some plays,

0:55:20.719 --> 0:55:23.720
<v Speaker 1>all right, And when he comes to Dak, I would

0:55:23.760 --> 0:55:26.520
<v Speaker 1>honestly rather see Dak go out there and play like

0:55:26.719 --> 0:55:29.360
<v Speaker 1>garbage the first two games because he didn't play in

0:55:29.360 --> 0:55:31.920
<v Speaker 1>the preseason, then risk him going out there and playing

0:55:31.920 --> 0:55:34.600
<v Speaker 1>in the preseason and getting hurt. If he goes out

0:55:34.600 --> 0:55:36.280
<v Speaker 1>there and he has a slow start because he hasn't

0:55:36.280 --> 0:55:38.920
<v Speaker 1>played in real live snaps since he got hurt last season,

0:55:39.120 --> 0:55:41.759
<v Speaker 1>I am totally okay with that. We've all agreed that

0:55:41.840 --> 0:55:44.439
<v Speaker 1>the first four games anyway, we should be a very

0:55:44.680 --> 0:55:48.160
<v Speaker 1>run heavy team, all right, So let back EA's back

0:55:48.160 --> 0:55:50.000
<v Speaker 1>into and he's back into the game, give him some

0:55:50.080 --> 0:55:52.319
<v Speaker 1>easy throws to get him ready to go, and I

0:55:52.360 --> 0:55:54.359
<v Speaker 1>think he'll be fine. One thing we know about Dak

0:55:54.520 --> 0:55:56.239
<v Speaker 1>is we have not seen him go out in a

0:55:56.400 --> 0:55:59.000
<v Speaker 1>season and not put up some of the best quarterback

0:55:59.080 --> 0:56:01.120
<v Speaker 1>numbers that we've ever seen. He's been doing it since

0:56:01.160 --> 0:56:04.880
<v Speaker 1>he got into the league. So I don't like I

0:56:05.000 --> 0:56:07.160
<v Speaker 1>doubt that it would change this year. He's gonna be

0:56:07.200 --> 0:56:09.239
<v Speaker 1>a little rusty, but I'm not worried about it. Leave

0:56:09.280 --> 0:56:11.960
<v Speaker 1>him on the sideline, Leave Zeke on the sideline, because

0:56:12.040 --> 0:56:15.760
<v Speaker 1>in all honesty, Our entire season depends on those two guys.

0:56:16.400 --> 0:56:21.560
<v Speaker 1>It's very true, Louis. And you've got Amari Cooper, who

0:56:21.640 --> 0:56:25.399
<v Speaker 1>will play against the Houston Texans, number nineteen practicing this week,

0:56:25.440 --> 0:56:28.480
<v Speaker 1>says he is going to play your thoughts all right, listen,

0:56:29.120 --> 0:56:31.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you brought up Coop because the last time

0:56:31.360 --> 0:56:32.640
<v Speaker 1>I was on the show, I remember we were talking

0:56:32.640 --> 0:56:34.680
<v Speaker 1>about how Coop's gonna be the number one because that's

0:56:34.719 --> 0:56:36.759
<v Speaker 1>comfortable with him, and I've meant to bring that up

0:56:36.800 --> 0:56:39.719
<v Speaker 1>about hard knocks say what you want too, though, But

0:56:39.800 --> 0:56:42.480
<v Speaker 1>when I was hearing those clips of Dak talking about

0:56:42.520 --> 0:56:46.080
<v Speaker 1>what Cedee Lamb could do, I was like, new number

0:56:46.120 --> 0:56:48.960
<v Speaker 1>one guy, he said, man, he said easiest. He's an

0:56:48.960 --> 0:56:51.120
<v Speaker 1>easy guy to throw the deep ball too, because he

0:56:51.200 --> 0:56:53.640
<v Speaker 1>just runs up under that thing. And you just see

0:56:53.680 --> 0:56:56.799
<v Speaker 1>him looking at all as he watched Ceedee Lamb make

0:56:56.840 --> 0:57:00.439
<v Speaker 1>all these spectacular catches and rock these guys up. He's

0:57:00.480 --> 0:57:02.960
<v Speaker 1>looking at CD like, I can't wait to get out

0:57:03.000 --> 0:57:04.239
<v Speaker 1>there and be able to throw this guy in the

0:57:04.280 --> 0:57:07.160
<v Speaker 1>real game because we're gonna do some real, real damage.

0:57:07.280 --> 0:57:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at seeing CD Lamb by the end of

0:57:10.640 --> 0:57:13.239
<v Speaker 1>the season being the number one option on the Dallas

0:57:13.320 --> 0:57:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys team in the receiving corps. It ain't no way

0:57:16.840 --> 0:57:19.160
<v Speaker 1>like I love I love CD and what he's bringing

0:57:19.200 --> 0:57:21.800
<v Speaker 1>to the table. I think he's definitely poised to make

0:57:21.840 --> 0:57:23.640
<v Speaker 1>that year or two jump and he's gonna be one

0:57:23.640 --> 0:57:25.600
<v Speaker 1>of the best. But I think he'll be a one

0:57:25.680 --> 0:57:27.720
<v Speaker 1>B or maybe a two. I mean, we can't forget

0:57:27.720 --> 0:57:29.439
<v Speaker 1>about Cooper here. I mean, this is a guy. Five

0:57:29.480 --> 0:57:31.840
<v Speaker 1>of the last six seasons he's went over a thousand yards.

0:57:31.960 --> 0:57:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this guy, he's a legit receivers. What's Miles

0:57:34.760 --> 0:57:37.680
<v Speaker 1>Austin here when Dad's got here? Yeah? Okay, because Miles

0:57:37.720 --> 0:57:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Austin was one, Davis was two, and quickly in that season,

0:57:42.040 --> 0:57:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Davis became the number one. Okay, I'm seeing that now.

0:57:45.840 --> 0:57:48.240
<v Speaker 1>It didn't take anything away from Miles. It ain't taking

0:57:48.280 --> 0:57:50.960
<v Speaker 1>nothing away from Coop, but what we're what we're seeing

0:57:51.000 --> 0:57:54.720
<v Speaker 1>as far as OTAs and training camp from CD. You

0:57:54.800 --> 0:57:58.480
<v Speaker 1>can't deny that it's been great. It's been great to watch,

0:57:58.560 --> 0:58:02.280
<v Speaker 1>So I don't I can see this happening where Back

0:58:02.360 --> 0:58:03.840
<v Speaker 1>gets in there and he's thrown at the CD and

0:58:03.880 --> 0:58:06.640
<v Speaker 1>CD becomes that guy. And we already saw last season

0:58:06.840 --> 0:58:09.640
<v Speaker 1>that Keller Moore is willing to put CD Lamb in

0:58:09.680 --> 0:58:12.680
<v Speaker 1>those situations when his crunch time and get him the ball.

0:58:12.720 --> 0:58:15.160
<v Speaker 1>And that was his rookie season. So Keiller Moore's watching this,

0:58:15.320 --> 0:58:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Ye're like, oh yeah, oh yeah, all right, all right,

0:58:19.280 --> 0:58:21.520
<v Speaker 1>let me let me interject here. Let me interject here,

0:58:21.520 --> 0:58:25.080
<v Speaker 1>because you guys are safety, So tell me this. These

0:58:25.080 --> 0:58:28.120
<v Speaker 1>two guys line up, who you're gonna double cover nineteen

0:58:28.320 --> 0:58:31.400
<v Speaker 1>or eighty eight. I think it'd be easier to double

0:58:31.960 --> 0:58:33.800
<v Speaker 1>double eighty eight because he's in the slot. And what

0:58:33.840 --> 0:58:35.480
<v Speaker 1>you can do is you can have that nickel on

0:58:35.520 --> 0:58:37.560
<v Speaker 1>the outside. You can have a linebacker kind of banging

0:58:37.600 --> 0:58:40.280
<v Speaker 1>him on the inside. You can have somebody dropping, maybe

0:58:40.280 --> 0:58:42.880
<v Speaker 1>a defensive lineman dropping to kind of to kind of

0:58:42.920 --> 0:58:44.920
<v Speaker 1>skeer his inside route. So I think it's easier to

0:58:45.040 --> 0:58:48.400
<v Speaker 1>double a slot guy than it is to double guy

0:58:48.400 --> 0:58:50.240
<v Speaker 1>on the outside because if you double guyn the outside,

0:58:50.320 --> 0:58:51.960
<v Speaker 1>let's say you get a corner and the safety over there,

0:58:51.960 --> 0:58:53.960
<v Speaker 1>that safety's gonna be leaning. So that that was that

0:58:54.040 --> 0:58:56.200
<v Speaker 1>quarterback already knows all right, well he's doubled out there

0:58:56.200 --> 0:58:57.520
<v Speaker 1>is let me see what I got options I got

0:58:57.520 --> 0:59:00.600
<v Speaker 1>over here? When when the guy's in the slot can

0:59:00.720 --> 0:59:05.520
<v Speaker 1>disguise that that's not what new he's asking you. Okaymark

0:59:05.520 --> 0:59:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Cooper is at the X and Cede Lamb is at

0:59:08.800 --> 0:59:12.720
<v Speaker 1>the Z. Who are you doubling? It's what he's asking. Okay,

0:59:12.720 --> 0:59:18.240
<v Speaker 1>that's what that's what he's asking. I'm doubling. I'm absolutely not. Yeah, no, no,

0:59:18.240 --> 0:59:20.160
<v Speaker 1>no one. It depends on thousand, this is and all

0:59:20.200 --> 0:59:22.520
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. But I'm going to CD right now. I

0:59:22.560 --> 0:59:24.320
<v Speaker 1>think on the first couple of games, you'll see that

0:59:24.400 --> 0:59:26.520
<v Speaker 1>CD is going to be more explosive than Amark Cooper,

0:59:26.640 --> 0:59:29.640
<v Speaker 1>especially since Amari Cooper has missed all this time and

0:59:29.680 --> 0:59:32.720
<v Speaker 1>it's coming off of surgery. Clam is gonna be the

0:59:32.760 --> 0:59:35.240
<v Speaker 1>guy that you need to stop. Kevin Moore is going

0:59:35.320 --> 0:59:37.480
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that Ceede Lamb is getting the spotlight

0:59:37.520 --> 0:59:40.680
<v Speaker 1>in this offense. You just watching that man's getting twenty

0:59:40.720 --> 0:59:43.000
<v Speaker 1>meal on the right side, Cooper is getting twenty. They're

0:59:43.000 --> 0:59:46.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like you ran the over route on fourth

0:59:46.120 --> 0:59:49.640
<v Speaker 1>and fourth and three last season. That was Lamb who

0:59:49.800 --> 0:59:52.520
<v Speaker 1>who they got the ball to. It was specifically to him.

0:59:52.640 --> 0:59:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Hey man, let's get eighty eighth the ball that was

0:59:54.640 --> 0:59:57.800
<v Speaker 1>his rookie year. This is the second year, it's gonna happen.

1:00:00.080 --> 1:00:02.080
<v Speaker 1>So so so let me let me throw this out here

1:00:02.120 --> 1:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>and just just not calling them these tandems. Okay, I'm

1:00:06.160 --> 1:00:08.240
<v Speaker 1>not calling them these tandems, but I'm just gonna throw

1:00:08.240 --> 1:00:12.560
<v Speaker 1>out two tandems that where you had a number one

1:00:12.600 --> 1:00:15.080
<v Speaker 1>guy who then got joined by a younger guy, and

1:00:15.440 --> 1:00:17.480
<v Speaker 1>we saw how they were able to kind of flip

1:00:17.560 --> 1:00:21.400
<v Speaker 1>PLoP it a little bit. Um. You saw Chris Carter

1:00:21.520 --> 1:00:23.360
<v Speaker 1>then get joined by Randy Moss, and you saw what

1:00:23.400 --> 1:00:25.440
<v Speaker 1>they were able to do there. We saw an Kumbolden

1:00:25.480 --> 1:00:27.840
<v Speaker 1>then get joined by Larry Fitzgerald with the Cardinals, so

1:00:27.880 --> 1:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>we've seen where and then over with the Rams you

1:00:30.120 --> 1:00:32.040
<v Speaker 1>had Isaac Bruce who was established one, and then they

1:00:32.080 --> 1:00:34.080
<v Speaker 1>drafted Tory Holt and when we saw what they were

1:00:34.120 --> 1:00:36.479
<v Speaker 1>able to do there. Could we be talking in terms

1:00:36.480 --> 1:00:39.000
<v Speaker 1>that the Cowboys may have this similar situation with a

1:00:39.080 --> 1:00:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Namari Cooper and Ceedee Land. Oh, without a doubt. I think,

1:00:42.000 --> 1:00:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean if if, if they continue to play off

1:00:44.000 --> 1:00:45.800
<v Speaker 1>each other like they have, I mean, they could be

1:00:45.800 --> 1:00:48.360
<v Speaker 1>one of the top duels in the National Football League.

1:00:48.360 --> 1:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean the only team that may have a better duo,

1:00:50.280 --> 1:00:53.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, Tampa Bay with Guy one in Evans and

1:00:53.640 --> 1:00:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Tennessee with Brown and Julio Jones. But I mean you

1:00:57.360 --> 1:00:59.520
<v Speaker 1>may throw in, you know, the vikings with Jefferson and

1:00:59.560 --> 1:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>the Eland, but other than that, I mean, I don't

1:01:01.560 --> 1:01:03.880
<v Speaker 1>really see. You know, it's tandem. That's better than what

1:01:03.920 --> 1:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>we got here in Dallas. And you see how we're

1:01:06.560 --> 1:01:09.560
<v Speaker 1>just excluding Gallop in all this conversation. I'm telling you

1:01:09.600 --> 1:01:13.600
<v Speaker 1>what's gonna happen. He gonna start getting these clippings and like, man,

1:01:13.640 --> 1:01:16.760
<v Speaker 1>hold on, man, listen and listen, all respect to Gallup,

1:01:17.000 --> 1:01:19.680
<v Speaker 1>he gonna we're talking about who can possibly be the

1:01:19.800 --> 1:01:22.160
<v Speaker 1>number one receiver on this team? All right, all the

1:01:22.280 --> 1:01:25.600
<v Speaker 1>respect to him, it's between CD and it's between Amari

1:01:25.640 --> 1:01:30.280
<v Speaker 1>Cooper and I'm still the mindset of throughout this season.

1:01:30.320 --> 1:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I think we're gonna see if CD Lamb continues to

1:01:32.960 --> 1:01:35.840
<v Speaker 1>play like he's been playing in training camp, he's gonna

1:01:35.840 --> 1:01:37.880
<v Speaker 1>be He's gonna be the guy. The guy. The guy

1:01:38.040 --> 1:01:40.640
<v Speaker 1>is showing me. I hate to say it because I'm

1:01:40.680 --> 1:01:43.439
<v Speaker 1>not there. I'm not I'm not on the field watching it,

1:01:44.160 --> 1:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>but I'm seeing on these highlights and Daz Bran, you Bran,

1:01:51.080 --> 1:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>come on, man, did we all did you not see

1:01:53.360 --> 1:01:58.360
<v Speaker 1>the one hand in the back of ends all. I said, no, no,

1:01:58.440 --> 1:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I said type stuff that we've seen when when this

1:02:01.560 --> 1:02:03.600
<v Speaker 1>first came and he was in that training camp, we

1:02:03.680 --> 1:02:06.600
<v Speaker 1>all looked at say that guy right there is special.

1:02:06.960 --> 1:02:09.320
<v Speaker 1>When you're watching CD Lamb, the only thing I'm hearing

1:02:09.320 --> 1:02:11.960
<v Speaker 1>not a training camp, is this guy is having a year.

1:02:12.000 --> 1:02:13.960
<v Speaker 1>We even saw the playmaker come on and say that

1:02:14.120 --> 1:02:17.320
<v Speaker 1>true hard knocks, this dude is going to be a

1:02:17.440 --> 1:02:20.000
<v Speaker 1>star making these plays. I mean, who are we to

1:02:20.080 --> 1:02:22.840
<v Speaker 1>say you know more that we know more about playmakers

1:02:22.840 --> 1:02:27.720
<v Speaker 1>than many to him say no about Coop, that's true,

1:02:27.920 --> 1:02:32.160
<v Speaker 1>that's true. You you are Look look Danny, you're right.

1:02:32.240 --> 1:02:34.600
<v Speaker 1>And I was there for so many of those practices,

1:02:34.640 --> 1:02:38.560
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, I mean he is a different level. And

1:02:38.560 --> 1:02:40.520
<v Speaker 1>they look at this. I think we're gonna go back

1:02:41.080 --> 1:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>and the next five years we're gonna go back and

1:02:42.640 --> 1:02:45.280
<v Speaker 1>look at this draft and we'll talk about what a

1:02:45.360 --> 1:02:48.360
<v Speaker 1>great class of receivers they are there. Jefferson, We've already

1:02:48.360 --> 1:02:50.280
<v Speaker 1>saw what he did last year with the Vikings. It

1:02:50.360 --> 1:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>was a sensational rookie year. Um ceedee. Lamb in the

1:02:53.600 --> 1:02:56.120
<v Speaker 1>second year is taking that step out of San Francisco

1:02:56.440 --> 1:02:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Brandon I who had a really good rookie season and

1:02:58.880 --> 1:03:00.919
<v Speaker 1>he was like Ceedee Lamb where they went through four

1:03:01.000 --> 1:03:04.040
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks last year. This guy is taking a step there.

1:03:04.240 --> 1:03:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I think Jerry Judy wants Denver figures out a quarterback here.

1:03:08.080 --> 1:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Jerry Judy is gonna be a heck of a wide

1:03:10.000 --> 1:03:12.640
<v Speaker 1>receiver here. And if the Raiders can figure out how

1:03:12.680 --> 1:03:14.760
<v Speaker 1>to hit Henry Rugs deep, you know, I think he's

1:03:14.760 --> 1:03:16.720
<v Speaker 1>going to be another receiver which you'll kind of go

1:03:16.760 --> 1:03:19.960
<v Speaker 1>back and say, well, where's Jalen Raiger of Philadelphia? I mean,

1:03:19.960 --> 1:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>they had quarterback issues as well. So I think this

1:03:21.880 --> 1:03:23.880
<v Speaker 1>receiver class will look here in five years and say, man,

1:03:24.000 --> 1:03:25.880
<v Speaker 1>this is one of the best classes of wide receivers

1:03:25.880 --> 1:03:28.200
<v Speaker 1>we've seen in a long long time. And Ceedee Lamb

1:03:28.280 --> 1:03:30.880
<v Speaker 1>is going to be a very special guy worthy of

1:03:30.920 --> 1:03:33.840
<v Speaker 1>the eighty eight jersey. And that that's that's that's that's

1:03:33.840 --> 1:03:35.760
<v Speaker 1>saying something in my opinion, when you say a guy

1:03:35.920 --> 1:03:38.080
<v Speaker 1>it's worthy to where an eighty eight jersey, he is

1:03:38.160 --> 1:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>he is. He's got that kind of potential. Man, do

1:03:40.360 --> 1:03:42.200
<v Speaker 1>you me ask you a quick question. Okay, let's just

1:03:42.200 --> 1:03:44.800
<v Speaker 1>say he balls out this year, and you know they

1:03:44.840 --> 1:03:46.240
<v Speaker 1>say all right, mar you know we got our new

1:03:46.320 --> 1:03:48.320
<v Speaker 1>number one. You know it's been real. Will let you slide?

1:03:48.880 --> 1:03:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Do you think he can do about himself? Or do

1:03:51.480 --> 1:03:53.200
<v Speaker 1>you think it'd be kind of like a Juju Smith's

1:03:53.200 --> 1:03:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Suster situation where Ab left and then all the coverage

1:03:56.600 --> 1:03:59.320
<v Speaker 1>went to Juju and he went dramatically downhill? Do you

1:03:59.320 --> 1:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>think he can do it about something? From what I'm hearing,

1:04:01.280 --> 1:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Ceedee Lamb, who is doing it by himself in training camp,

1:04:04.160 --> 1:04:08.960
<v Speaker 1>is looking like an absolute star. I agree, like, I agree.

1:04:09.000 --> 1:04:11.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm just throwing it out there. I agree, I agree.

1:04:11.200 --> 1:04:15.520
<v Speaker 1>So I'm okay with CD versus versus J. I'm okay

1:04:15.720 --> 1:04:17.840
<v Speaker 1>agree with y'all. I'm just throwing a question. Now, what'd

1:04:17.840 --> 1:04:21.720
<v Speaker 1>you think? Newly? Here? Here, here's a better perspective on that.

1:04:21.800 --> 1:04:25.600
<v Speaker 1>For what you just said, I'm watching Ben Denucci throw

1:04:25.760 --> 1:04:30.479
<v Speaker 1>touchdown passes and Cooper Rush and Garrett Gilbert, they're throwing

1:04:30.560 --> 1:04:32.640
<v Speaker 1>them to Cede Lamb. Oh, I don't know what to do.

1:04:32.680 --> 1:04:34.360
<v Speaker 1>I'll just throwing to eighty eight and he's coming up

1:04:34.360 --> 1:04:37.440
<v Speaker 1>with some crazy catches and that's how these guys are

1:04:37.440 --> 1:04:39.840
<v Speaker 1>actually winning some of these motile moments. So if he's

1:04:39.920 --> 1:04:43.320
<v Speaker 1>doing that with those dudes. Imagine what he can do

1:04:43.400 --> 1:04:47.760
<v Speaker 1>with Dak Prescott and over over, you know, seventeen football games.

1:04:47.760 --> 1:04:50.440
<v Speaker 1>So I just really believe we're gonna look back and

1:04:50.480 --> 1:04:53.160
<v Speaker 1>talk about how special some of these wide receivers were

1:04:53.520 --> 1:04:55.840
<v Speaker 1>in that class of twenty twenty. And I think CD

1:04:56.000 --> 1:04:57.400
<v Speaker 1>Lamb is gonna be right now. I'm telling you right now,

1:04:57.400 --> 1:05:00.720
<v Speaker 1>between Jefferson I U CD Lamb, if you're in fantasy

1:05:00.720 --> 1:05:03.480
<v Speaker 1>football draft, if you can get these guys, one or

1:05:03.520 --> 1:05:05.440
<v Speaker 1>two of these guys on your football team, think you

1:05:06.040 --> 1:05:08.560
<v Speaker 1>feel really good because that second year leap they're gonna

1:05:08.560 --> 1:05:10.240
<v Speaker 1>be able to make because they've had a training him.

1:05:10.520 --> 1:05:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that's also been a big thing too for

1:05:12.240 --> 1:05:14.960
<v Speaker 1>CD lamp to be actually out there and to be

1:05:15.040 --> 1:05:18.120
<v Speaker 1>able to be coaching, being meetings. The kid is taking

1:05:18.160 --> 1:05:22.600
<v Speaker 1>a tremendous leap in his development. So the hype, the

1:05:22.680 --> 1:05:26.520
<v Speaker 1>hype is real. So many times I think guys who

1:05:26.560 --> 1:05:28.760
<v Speaker 1>put the star in their helmet get over hyped, but

1:05:28.800 --> 1:05:30.959
<v Speaker 1>there's no bull drive with this man. Speaking of the hype.

1:05:31.040 --> 1:05:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of hype, how much Monday did Bendauci play pay hbo? Okay,

1:05:35.120 --> 1:05:37.680
<v Speaker 1>because he never looked so good then he did on

1:05:37.680 --> 1:05:43.040
<v Speaker 1>that last episode. Okay, man, I said, Man, I was like,

1:05:43.240 --> 1:05:45.439
<v Speaker 1>I really in my head was saying, was I wrong

1:05:45.520 --> 1:05:48.760
<v Speaker 1>about the duchy? That's that's how good he looked on

1:05:48.800 --> 1:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>the show for you. He was running all around every corner,

1:05:54.640 --> 1:05:57.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, game winning touchdown. They painted it with the

1:05:57.280 --> 1:06:01.080
<v Speaker 1>chest with the music Chess Master. I was like, man, listen,

1:06:02.000 --> 1:06:04.040
<v Speaker 1>was I wrong about forgot you one wrong? I'm just

1:06:04.080 --> 1:06:06.920
<v Speaker 1>saying that wrong. That that's that's that's how that's how

1:06:07.000 --> 1:06:09.320
<v Speaker 1>editing can get you. That's editing can get you. A

1:06:09.400 --> 1:06:13.160
<v Speaker 1>TV producer. Man, somebody, somebody the nucy to slid some

1:06:13.200 --> 1:06:16.040

1:06:23.800 --> 1:06:30.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, the nut reminds me those those church those

1:06:30.160 --> 1:06:32.560
<v Speaker 1>churches chicken commercials I see, Man. I sent up there

1:06:32.600 --> 1:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>and looking at the churches Chicken verci, Man, I don't

1:06:34.320 --> 1:06:37.000
<v Speaker 1>look like they got some spike yallapetero. Then, like you know,

1:06:37.000 --> 1:06:39.240
<v Speaker 1>and I don't ever churches. It's not my spine. I

1:06:39.240 --> 1:06:42.040
<v Speaker 1>don't like churches, man, But you see the commercially like, well,

1:06:42.040 --> 1:06:45.160
<v Speaker 1>maybe ill to try it. Maybe maybe they didn't step

1:06:45.200 --> 1:06:49.680
<v Speaker 1>their game and churches didn't roll through the man like man,

1:06:49.960 --> 1:06:55.840

<v Speaker 1>I knew it. I knew it, but I got fooled.

1:07:08.840 --> 1:07:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Can't get fooled again. So I don't think Bend Lucy's

1:07:11.520 --> 1:07:13.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna make this football team. I expect him to be cut.

1:07:13.600 --> 1:07:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I do the only think and that's a good question.

1:07:21.120 --> 1:07:24.400
<v Speaker 1>That's a good question. I think coop us out of

1:07:24.400 --> 1:07:26.680
