Speaker 2: Cowboys.
Speaker 1: This is the Players Lounge, broadcasting live from Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 1: World headquarters at the Star. Now your hosts Barry Church,
Speaker 1: Danny McCrae, Hecma Harrison, and newly Scruggs.
Speaker 3: Here we are Players Lounge on a Monday. It is
Speaker 3: a playoff week. The Dallas Cowboys are the number two
Speaker 3: seed and they're the NFC East champions. Here in NFL
Speaker 3: the number one see San Francisco forty nine ers have
Speaker 3: a bye. The Cowboys will host Mike McCarthy's old team,
Speaker 3: the Green Bay Packers. It'll be his second opportunity to
Speaker 3: face his old club. Two years ago, Cowboys went up
Speaker 3: to Lambello Field, had a fourteen point lead and promptly
Speaker 3: blew it. And I think that was the start of
Speaker 3: the Kellen Kellen Moore demise as it also that was it.
Speaker 4: That was the game, that was the start, that was
Speaker 4: the turning point.
Speaker 3: Duval finished when they went to Duval had another fourteen
Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter and that finished it off here.
Speaker 3: So Cowboys finished twelve and five and they are exactly
Speaker 3: where they'd like to be seven and a half point
Speaker 3: favorite at home against Screen Bay. The first two games
Speaker 3: definitely will be at at and T provided the Cowboys
Speaker 3: can get past the Green Bay Packers. You know the
Speaker 3: gentleman on the players you by, Tostinos's Danny mccraig, LSU's
Speaker 3: finest national champion guy.

Speaker 3: a couple made a couple of changes, and I wrote
Speaker 3: right here to.
Speaker 4: Right, so that was what I had.
Speaker 2: Right here.

Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 3: No, this was no, no, no, no, this what I

Speaker 2: I'm gonna go scrape the website. You sworn.
Speaker 4: There's only one in here with the division, Giuliana.

Speaker 2: said it, this man said you're cooking the books. Why
Speaker 2: am I getting tossed into this. I'm not taking blame
Speaker 2: nothing about it to do because.
Speaker 3: My because my integrity was questioned. We gave it a
Speaker 3: Chris Bean, right. So so so now you're you're not
Speaker 3: questioning me. You're questioning Chris when you're talking about me.
Speaker 6: I'm just talking about it, Joe, You're.
Speaker 4: Like that kind of way point me, but talking to
Speaker 4: everybody else.
Speaker 3: Okay, So right now, according to the sheet of integrity
Speaker 3: from Chris Bean, who is in charge secretariat, you know,
Speaker 3: Secretary Secretary Chris, I'm twelve and five NFC East, Danny
Speaker 3: you thirteen and four NFC East Church you eleven and
Speaker 3: six NFC Wildcard. Heck, ma you thirteen and four NFC East.
Speaker 2: Seven.
Speaker 4: I think yeah, So I went back here and I
Speaker 4: looked at my losses. I had a loss at Philadelphia,
Speaker 4: this is good. I love I had a loss at
Speaker 4: Washington On. Thanks feel about being right?
Speaker 2: How do you feel about being right and being twelve
Speaker 2: and five and winning the NFC East after the season
Speaker 2: that they had new I.
Speaker 4: Feel really bad because my Super Bowl picks.
Speaker 2: Both of them. Yeah, I was tough.
Speaker 3: So I'll tell you what the thing I do take
Speaker 3: like a little victory. Lap On was with Dak Prescott
Speaker 3: before the season. I went thirty three and nine for
Speaker 3: that in terms of touchdowns, touchdowns, interceptions, and Calvin Watkins
Speaker 3: laughed at me.
Speaker 2: Cut the yea.
Speaker 3: He finished with thirty six and nine to believe the
Speaker 3: league the first time in fifty years. A cowboy quarterback
Speaker 3: has led the NFL and touchdown pass since Rogers Stalblack
Speaker 3: in nineteen seventy three through twenty three and.
Speaker 4: Tied for the league. I'm for Dak Prescott.
Speaker 3: I'm happy because the man spent the whole off season,
Speaker 3: he spent the whole training camp being questioned and people
Speaker 3: acting like the man was a horrible quarterback. You know
Speaker 3: that he had a down year, which made him a
Speaker 3: bad play. Everybody has a.
Speaker 2: Bad year in their career.
Speaker 3: Everybody go down to anybody, just go down to the
Speaker 3: back of anybody's trading card. He goes, well, that went
Speaker 3: a good year last year, won a good year for
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott came back here, he and Mike McCarthy together,
Speaker 3: So that that's the one I look at him like, hey,
Speaker 3: you know that when I feel good about that producer,
Speaker 3: I said, you know, man, that's pretty cool because.
Speaker 4: The quarterback played his tail off this year.
Speaker 3: Some people don't want to give to and he he
Speaker 3: will finish, in my opinion, top three in the MVP.
Speaker 2: Yes, and yes, Dak played great this season. Like you said,
Speaker 2: I mean leading the league touchdowns. He got the interceptions
Speaker 2: way down. He played a full season this season, it
Speaker 2: was still way down. And last year we know that
Speaker 2: was a little off, and we all said, I think here,
Speaker 2: we said, Dak is not a turnover pro guy. That's
Speaker 2: why everybody was up in arms saying, man, what is
Speaker 2: going on because we hadn't seen this from Dak before.
Speaker 2: So that's the character of a guy like Dak Prescott.
Speaker 2: That's why he's one of the best leaders in the NFL.
Speaker 2: That's why the locker room respects him. That's why the
Speaker 2: organization only has positive things to say about Dak Prescott.
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott said he did not put on that NFC
Speaker 2: East winner and all that stuff because he knows what
Speaker 2: the goal is. Dak Prescott understands that at this point
Speaker 2: that is irrelevant because what matters, just like we all
Speaker 2: know with McCarthy, Dak, whoever, once you get into the playoffs,
Speaker 2: how you perform. Then We've seen great seasons, We've seen
Speaker 2: big time stats, we've seen all that. So I'm just
Speaker 2: happy that Dak is still focus knowing that, Hey man,
Speaker 2: I know I had a good season, but that's not
Speaker 2: what it is. I know that me, I need to
Speaker 2: perform well enough for my team to make it deep
Speaker 2: off into the playoffs hopefully get to the super Bowl.
Speaker 2: And that means that I have to stay focused and
Speaker 2: make sure that my team stays focused as well. So
Speaker 2: shout out to Dak. But I'm locked in with you, baby,
Speaker 2: I'm locked in with you. Thirteen and fours.
Speaker 4: I gotta hear from mac man, I gotta hear.
Speaker 2: I've been waiting, you know what. I will say this
Speaker 2: about Dak and his performance. But first of all, I
Speaker 2: think listening today, finally hearing people give him as just
Speaker 2: due on the kind of year that he had, I think,
Speaker 2: and he's probably not listening to it, but there's so
Speaker 2: many people that had questions, Like you said, knew it
Speaker 2: going back to training camp and him throwing interceptions in
Speaker 2: training camp and him and Trayvon Diggs having just regular
Speaker 2: training camp conversation. You know, is he a leader? Is
Speaker 2: he all these things? For me, the biggest thing is
Speaker 2: him being healthy and playing seventeen games. I mean last
Speaker 2: season we started off with all that hope he gets
Speaker 2: hurt in the first game, is only able to finish
Speaker 2: twelve games, and it came in pressing. I think that
Speaker 2: this version of Dak Prescott I can live with because
Speaker 2: this Dack has a lot of edge to him, and
Speaker 2: also coming into this season saying, look, the defense is
Speaker 2: gonna carry.
Speaker 4: Carry us, and we just need you just to be
Speaker 4: a bus driver.
Speaker 2: Just don't mess it up, right, him and him and
Speaker 2: CD getting on the same page. And the way that
Speaker 2: this offense started to flourish after some adversity, and I
Speaker 2: think that's what when I've heard Mike McCarthy talk about
Speaker 2: this season and it being linked to adversity, the way
Speaker 2: that they played through it and Dak saying, you know what,
Speaker 2: my best chance at getting into the playoffs and having
Speaker 2: home field is to ride eighty eight like Zoro, you know,
Speaker 2: like we need a ball. I'm getting the ball to
Speaker 2: number eighty eight. And also the other part when we
Speaker 2: were talking five six weeks, who are we talking about
Speaker 2: Brandon Cooks? I know for sure I was questioning Brandon Cooks.
Speaker 2: What's going on with Brandon Cooks? That connection starting to happen,
Speaker 2: and then our offense opening up even more. I want
Speaker 2: the conversation, no matter what about Dak this year, him
Speaker 2: being able to take that step into what you consider
Speaker 2: to be the elite quarterbacks of the NFL. No matter
Speaker 2: how you view him in the MVP race, have your
Speaker 2: own opinion about it. All I'm saying is this year
Speaker 2: we saw something in him as far as making adjustments
Speaker 2: at the line of scrimmage, commanding the huddle, doing all
Speaker 2: of it. It's not just the here we go portion
Speaker 2: of it. It's just that even his peers, guys like
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers said, man, I see something different than Dak
Speaker 2: in the way that he's commanding and making adjustment. So
Speaker 2: I love that more than anything. When we talk about
Speaker 2: what Dak did this year.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and when you look at it, you know, from
Speaker 7: the bye week on really, I mean, he's been on
Speaker 7: fire and like you said, he's gotten the ball to CD,
Speaker 7: but he's also gotten the ball of Cooks Ferguson, whoever
Speaker 7: the case may be. And when you look at it,
Speaker 7: to me, this is the basically the coolest, the calmest
Speaker 7: I underseen Dak the entire his entire career. When you
Speaker 7: look at it, and I don't know if that's you know,
Speaker 7: part of Mike McCarthy's system, or just Dak evolving into
Speaker 7: a quarterback, or the merger of the boat, whatever the
Speaker 7: case may be. They've really taken that partnership to the
Speaker 7: next level. And when you look at defenses, because people
Speaker 7: try to all types of stuff against this guy, they
Speaker 7: try man to man, they try zone fire, zone, blitz
Speaker 7: them all out blitzes, and for whatever the case may be,
Speaker 7: he seems to be able to find the answers. And
Speaker 7: that's something that we didn't see from him in previous years.
Speaker 4: Especially last year, it.
Speaker 7: Seemed like, you know, whatever the case was going on,
Speaker 7: if you blitz him a certain way, he's gonna throw
Speaker 7: the ball that way and that's what Budda Baker was
Speaker 7: talking about years ago and being able to talk him
Speaker 7: into certain you know, turnovers or certain situations.
Speaker 4: And this year you don't see that.
Speaker 7: You know, defenses are throwing the kitchen sink at this
Speaker 7: guy and he's still able to come up with all
Speaker 7: the answers. You know, is it perfect game, No, it's
Speaker 7: not all. But he's playing at you know, one of
Speaker 7: the highest levels we've done.
Speaker 2: See and I think he has entered that elite quarterback
Speaker 2: conversation if he wasn't there already. I'm blaming that on
Speaker 2: killing tooth. By the way, I gotta I got, I
Speaker 2: gotta blame the system. God, hey man, if you see
Speaker 2: the person coming from this way, you automatically got to
Speaker 2: go this way. And anybody could fit in this system
Speaker 2: in front of the rise because because my scheme is
Speaker 2: gonna get them open. That's what we talked about it.
Speaker 2: That's on he saw. I'm like, hey man, that's why
Speaker 2: they forced you to throw the bottle North Brown. They
Speaker 2: forced you to throw the ball to these guys. Mark
Speaker 2: Cooper Wish was here right now, Mark what else? What else?
Speaker 8: What else?
Speaker 4: The bud say, we know what's coming? Yeah, yeah, that's
Speaker 4: what they're saying.
Speaker 2: In the AMC, they're saying the same thing. Man, we
Speaker 2: can't wait to play killing More.
Speaker 4: That was your guy.
Speaker 3: You was on you all Mike saying Mike was skategunt
Speaker 3: killing more. Mike was right all day long.
Speaker 4: Wait till Justin Herberts the ninety nine rams or something.
Speaker 4: Let's calm down a little bit on it, like we
Speaker 4: acting like, you know, he's out here with the greatest
Speaker 4: show on turf.
Speaker 7: We was just here two weeks ago talking about you
Speaker 7: can't put more than twenty points on the board. Like, still,
Speaker 7: come on, man, let's not let's not get too ahead
Speaker 7: of ourselves with this. I mean, when you're playing the
Speaker 7: good teams, just like are we Like he has a
Speaker 7: great year. Of course he had, Mike McCarthy and him both.
Speaker 7: I just said the merger was unbelievable. But let's you know,
Speaker 7: let's not act like this is the greatest thing we've
Speaker 7: ever seen before.
Speaker 3: The second most points and I think they've scored as
Speaker 3: an offensive.
Speaker 4: Or least good.
Speaker 3: Let me go out to pick up they sent the
Speaker 3: they sent the note out here, but from from an
Speaker 3: offensive point scoring is pretty good.
Speaker 4: The better years when they better years, out.
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, killing didn't help himself with the performers.
Speaker 2: They put on.
Speaker 4: Kei weapons.
Speaker 2: We hadn't discussing about it, the weapons that they had
Speaker 2: over there. Just give address address well the bars real quick.
Speaker 3: So obviously one of the biggest indicators is as they've
Speaker 3: got these head coaching names floating out here and the
Speaker 3: commanders are making Hey, who we want to talk to?
Speaker 4: I haven't senior boys name anyway, Yes, the.
Speaker 2: Last year is a year.
Speaker 3: In the last last year, you know, people like Carolina
Speaker 3: was trying to talk to him.
Speaker 4: Jus almost right there.

Speaker 4: Miami and yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so.
Speaker 2: So yeah year we'll be back. Eleve in there.

Speaker 3: like my youngest child, like we don't need no more
Speaker 3: backup we did.

Speaker 7: line every now and then.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm taking out on me, man, I just know,
Speaker 2: I just want me. I walk into the room, okay,
Speaker 2: from doing work upstairs, and he talked about alcohol. I said,

Speaker 2: me like I did. Game blouse.
Speaker 3: By the way, Congratulations, we had the podcast. Danny got it,
Speaker 3: Tony Pollard, I'm grying to touch down there.
Speaker 2: That's when you want to bring this up.
Speaker 4: You believe I'm giving you your flyer.
Speaker 2: You should because you tried to take up away from
Speaker 2: me in the group message. Okay, I said, hey, man,
Speaker 2: nobody won Danny.
Speaker 4: Off the top rope.
Speaker 2: Nobody want a job. We should have went to the
Speaker 2: package listen, and I said, let's go shout out the
Speaker 2: round playing for getting the big time interception yesterday. Wanted
Speaker 2: to pick six. But that is a heck of a
Speaker 2: player to make on the on the deep, on the
Speaker 2: deep throw. That's that's a heck of a throw interception
Speaker 2: to make. I thought the boys went out there and
Speaker 2: played great yesterday. You know, we still got to fix
Speaker 2: the top of the run stuff. But you know, overall,
Speaker 2: think he got the trade. Dick still on the score.
Speaker 2: He's on the squad. Listen, we see I seen him
Speaker 2: make an interception on the post route back when he
Speaker 2: was here, and I was like, that's what new. He
Speaker 2: said he was gonna get to take a contract. But
Speaker 2: I should have saw not over the.
Speaker 7: Playing picked off against parent that's the one that was
Speaker 7: the one.
Speaker 4: That's yeah, that's I mean, I'm just saying on the defense,
Speaker 4: on the defense, Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: Listen, Trademon broke the record. By the way, why do
Speaker 2: we put it in this context to two cowboy cornerbacks
Speaker 2: have led the league and interceptions in three years? All right,
Speaker 2: two out of three years you had Tray vond and
Speaker 2: now you have drawn Bland. I mean in the Super
Speaker 2: Bowl era, that's got to mean something. Precious sacks, interceptions.
Speaker 2: You like that. You're like that, and listen while we're
Speaker 2: handing our flowers, Okay, I want to make sure we
Speaker 2: Jordan Lewis came on at the end of at the season,
Speaker 2: started hacking a bunch of good players. You kind of
Speaker 2: you kind of started started to see some of that
Speaker 2: stuff that we saw in previous years before he got hurt,
Speaker 2: where you were like, hey, this guy, he's a nickelback
Speaker 2: like that, Like he has the talent and the skill
Speaker 2: and the instincts to be a really good nickelbacks. So
Speaker 2: I'm gonna shout out him because I know he's rooted
Speaker 2: for Michigan. To night.
Speaker 3: It's the Force talked about whether or not to keep
Speaker 3: him earlier.
Speaker 2: You called it. Oh hold on, yeah, you called it
Speaker 2: the You did call that so, so so what do
Speaker 2: you do because problem? Because I mean, you got to
Speaker 2: figure out what you got with Gilly. You got dron Blaine,
Speaker 2: you got Jordan Lewis, and you got trade one, you
Speaker 2: got four. I don't understand why we have to make
Speaker 2: a decision on that. Mean, Gilly's already here, Trey.
Speaker 4: Gilmore is free. Free, We'll make that.
Speaker 7: We're gonna make a little bit speaking of Gilly real quick,
Speaker 7: any any word on how bad how.
Speaker 4: Bad that shoulder?
Speaker 3: He said last night that they popped it back in
Speaker 3: and he's all right, that's what he said.
Speaker 4: But then again.
Speaker 3: Last week at the Lions game, Tyler Smith walked past me.
Speaker 4: I said, you're okay?
Speaker 3: He said, yeah, So I learned that they're just telling
Speaker 3: you whatever because you the media, they want to keep
Speaker 3: on stepping.
Speaker 7: That they pop out. Remember was that our second year
Speaker 7: of mine. Just once it goes that, they just keep
Speaker 7: you reach for something. Click, you're gonna have to get
Speaker 7: that thing.
Speaker 2: Only person tell you the truth was tiring. Huh. Trust
Speaker 2: he's been good every time he's been in the game.
Speaker 2: That is not that's not the debate. He's been good
Speaker 2: every time he's been in the game. Is a noticeable
Speaker 2: difference from when he's not in the game every time.
Speaker 7: I tell you what's impressive though, the guys that filled
Speaker 7: in for TJ.
Speaker 4: Bass and was he was.
Speaker 7: He wanted to smoke with everybody when.
Speaker 4: I saw that.
Speaker 3: It's one of those things that we don't talk a
Speaker 3: whole lot about, is how well Mike McCarthy's developed his
Speaker 3: coaching staff.
Speaker 4: When you start to look and see at the losses and.
Speaker 3: We're talking about Bland and having a great year, you
Speaker 3: almost forget Diggs, a guy who has been an All
Speaker 3: Pro cornerback who led the league get interceptions, gone very
Speaker 3: early in the year. Leighton vander ash who was having
Speaker 3: a nice season, gone for the year. Tomorrow, Overshown, who
Speaker 3: is a training camp looking like he was going to
Speaker 3: be an integral part of the rotation. Today, let Jabrell
Speaker 3: Cox go. He ends up being gone throughout this Throughout
Speaker 3: the year, this staff has continued to find ways to
Speaker 3: get guys better. Jalen Tolbert a guy that we came
Speaker 3: into the season. What are we going to see? Jalen
Speaker 3: Turbot caught a touchdown pass yesterday. And then when Zach
Speaker 3: Martin we find out that day because they sent out
Speaker 3: the note to us via email, Hey Zach Martin sick.
Speaker 3: At that time, they didn't say he wasn't going to
Speaker 3: be an active later on they did. But then you
Speaker 3: see he's playing Tyler Smith out this week.
Speaker 4: You know you had to go.
Speaker 3: You had to go have bass play, so Brock's playing,
Speaker 3: and to see these guys as Dak Press got through
Speaker 3: four touchdowns and Tony Poll and having a nice run game,
Speaker 3: and I thought Rico Dado made some nice runs as well.
Speaker 3: That goes back to the coaches Lounde Wells, what Lounda
Speaker 3: Wells has done in two years, just with between watching
Speaker 3: Ferguson Hinder shot out here hurtling guys yesterday, the tight
Speaker 3: end group you were you know that you let a
Speaker 3: guy like Dalton Schultz, who in my opinion was a top.
Speaker 4: Ten tight end. I think it was a top ten,
Speaker 4: but I would not have paid it. Yeah, you didn't
Speaker 4: want to get that man his money?
Speaker 2: No, No, both both are better off right now because
Speaker 2: they're in the playoffs. Did they win the South? Yes,
Speaker 2: and he's an integral part of their office. So both
Speaker 2: both both of.
Speaker 4: So heck, my thing on him was simpler.
Speaker 3: First of all, they offered him a deal he turned
Speaker 3: down because he wanted David and Joku money. But but
Speaker 3: it was just everyone's not going to be able to
Speaker 3: get paid him. We're going to go into the same
Speaker 3: offseason the same way because you got you've got guys
Speaker 3: to pay. So to me, paying Dalton Schultz didn't make
Speaker 3: sense because I thought we saw Jake Ferguson coming along
Speaker 3: and hinder Shot and while hender Shots spent a lot
Speaker 3: of the year on the IR and they drafted little screwmakers.
Speaker 3: Just overall with Lunda Wells has done in that room.
Speaker 3: Not only is that great coaching, but that helps your
Speaker 3: salary cap a whole lot, because these guys are on
Speaker 3: rookie deals.
Speaker 2: Right now, and Ferguson, to me, I think that was
Speaker 2: they saw the light with Ferguson, and that made that
Speaker 2: decision easier. If he had signed the contract, he'd still
Speaker 2: be here and thinking about how some of that mature,
Speaker 2: that growth of these other guys would have been steinmy
Speaker 2: because of him being here. They made the right decision,
Speaker 2: And I like what you said. He's better off for it.
Speaker 2: He's in a great position right now down in Houston.
Speaker 2: But I love the fact that guys like Hindershot are
Speaker 2: finding ways to contribute on special teams.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: When you're able to contribute in other ways, I think
Speaker 2: and add to this team, that's what you're gonna need.
Speaker 2: You're gonna need more of that as the playoffs go.
Speaker 2: You're gonna need plays just like that, just like that
Speaker 2: on special teams to be able to get past of
Speaker 2: San Francisco or a tough divisional opponent. So when I
Speaker 2: seen him make that play, to me, that echo not
Speaker 2: only Lunda Wells but also Bones Fossil being able to
Speaker 2: do stuff like that and impact the game. Listen, because
Speaker 2: I don't I don't want to be a debbie down here. Okay,
Speaker 2: I think this was the perfect get right game and
Speaker 2: the perfect time for us to not be able to
Speaker 2: do you know what I'm saying. Like so, like a
Speaker 2: lot of people had a really good game. I think
Speaker 2: this was a really good confidence boosting opportunity for our team.
Speaker 2: The Washington Commanders did not have anybody playing on defense,
Speaker 2: you know, And and after after that initial punch, I
Speaker 2: thought it was gonna be longer than that third quarter.
Speaker 2: But after after that, the only only unit that came
Speaker 2: out to play was offense. No other units was really contributed.
Speaker 4: You are correct, You are correct. The dog on it.
Speaker 3: You started looking at Philadelphia and how they looked and
Speaker 3: how how they went out there, got the breaks beat
Speaker 3: off of them.
Speaker 4: Take it No.
Speaker 13: I just.
Speaker 2: Said, it's just like that got a bad week.
