Just for the record, we're non violent. 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:17.800 All. 0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:22.160 Let's have some conversation. 0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:22.600 Let's talk. 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:24.639 Let's talk a little Cowboys football. 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:28.320 Let's start first with some injury updates heading into this 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.359 final game. Uh, there are a couple of Cowboys players 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:33.280 who are who did not practice. 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:37.320 Keemon Hall, Nick Vigil who hasn't practiced. 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:40.799 I don't think three or something that started, but he's 0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:44.160 gonna play, I would suspect, but Michael Parsons popped up, 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:46.959 Misy Smith parked up, popped up as limited. Are we 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:49.680 hearing anything about maybe their availability for Sunday? 0:02:49.840 --> 0:02:53.359 Honestly no, honestly no, I don't have anything for you there, Derek. 0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:54.000 No. 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.120 I you know the one on Hall, because I know 0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:58.040 you did a nice piece and maybe that Hall would 0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:00.519 get a start and stuff like that, and I I'm 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:02.280 not getting a good feeling on that one. 0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:06.040 Yeah, that one's tough. I saw him yesterday hamstring. 0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:07.760 For Haul of the Corner. That's what we were talking about. 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:10.240 Yeah, I saw him yesterday and I was like, hey, 0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:11.880 how are you feeling? He's like good and he kept walking. 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:13.520 That's not good. 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:15.440 It reminds me of like Eric Kendricks. We do that 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:18.200 with Eric Kendricks every week, how are you feeling good? 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:20.840 And then like and then like it's you know, thirty 0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:23.400 minutes for the game, and it's like not good, not good, 0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:23.839 not good. 0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:26.400 There's so many that I love that segment y'all do 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:28.720 with him every week because you do have to read 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:31.480 behind the like the way he answers questions, how much 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:33.639 time he takes to think about it before he answers. 0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:35.880 You have to read into all of that to get 0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:39.320 a real solid picture of whatever it is he's talking about. 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:43.080 Right man, my man, he he did a great job. 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.600 This good He is really good and he's interesting. But 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.240 he kills you on radio because he. 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:50.680 Will pause, yeah, like he will like. 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:55.680 Well and then it's like that Eric, and you're like going, 0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:58.000 this is it's not good radio. 0:03:58.200 --> 0:03:59.240 Just smack your lips, do. 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:02.960 Something something, you know, let us know you're yeah, just. 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:06.800 Don't dead eras And but he he was, he was. Actually, 0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:08.000 we've been very fortunate. 0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.400 It goes way back to Joe Looney and and you know, 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:11.560 even to Mari Cooper. 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:13.960 You would never think Mari Cooper and I. 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:16.279 Got in a discussion one time and like he was 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:20.680 after me about whether the best college team could beat 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.400 the worst pro team, you know, and he was default, 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:26.560 he was, no, he's this, there's no way, Mari. You 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:30.039 played on some great Alabama teams. I don't care those 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:32.880 great Alabama teams. Am not beating the worst NFL team. 0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:36.360 I'm like a Mari, every one of your teammates gets 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:40.520 drafted into the NFL, it's already an NFL team. He 0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:43.880 goes doesn't matter. I mean, he was. He was adamant 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:45.360 about it. I mean, and he's like, man, that's the 0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:47.919 stupidest thing you've ever said. I don't, no, no, you 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:50.280 don't know me that way. I've said a lot more 0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:53.960 stupid things than that. But no, we we've been very fortunate, 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:56.800 you know, the PR department stuff have always kind of 0:04:56.839 --> 0:05:00.000 suggested guys, you know, to us, and it's worked out. Really. 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:01.960 We got a lot out of Zach Mark. Yeah, Zach 0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:05.120 was actuously the very much the you know, how you 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.680 doing Zach good? You know, he's one of those. But 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.880 he he told some really good stories and so we've 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:14.320 been really fortunate. It's just unfortunate too for Eric that, 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:16.640 you know, the season didn't work out as well as 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:16.920 it did. 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:20.960 I really hope he can be back here again. 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:22.039 I do. 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:23.640 And I think he's good for that locker room too. 0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:25.280 I think it's it would be a good thing for 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:26.640 them having back if they can get it at a 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:28.960 good price. Yeah, all right, let's talk a little bit 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:32.600 about some Washington injuries, because they I know, Brian you mentioned. 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:34.840 Yesterday, they have they're really going to try to play 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:35.200 this game. 0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:40.240 But they got Tyler Biottish Marshaun Lattimore, Cornelius Lucas, Tyler 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:44.599 Owens all did not practice. Obviously, Beyoddish a center that 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.839 obviously was here with the Cowboys last year. Marshawn Lattimore 0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:50.040 may be their best cornerback as a guy that they 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:53.000 picked up mid season. But are any of these do 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:55.159 any of these names jump out at us being most 0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:56.599 problematic for them if they can't play? 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:56.880 Yeah? 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.920 I think so because of what's happened. What was Andrew Wiley? 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.400 I didn't, I didn't what was Andrew Wiley on that list? 0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:02.839 Limited? 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:03.520 Limited? 0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:04.839 He was upbraded's a limited yet? 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:07.400 Okay, then if he if he's limited, and maybe they're 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:08.640 going to try and get him ready to play, but 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:12.559 that's their right tackle and so if he's not able 0:06:12.600 --> 0:06:15.559 to go. Lucas was the backup first off the bench 0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:17.760 against Atlanta and he got hurt. 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:19.000 Yeah, something happened to him. 0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:21.960 And then it became Trent Scott and it was kind 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:25.480 of like watching, you know, like, Okay, Trent Scott's kind 0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:27.640 of our you know, forty eighth guy today. You know, 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:30.000 he's not really we didn't expect Trent Scott to have 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.760 to play, but he had to play. Be interested to 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.520 see if, in fact, what happens at right tackle, because 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.520 if Lucas can't go and Wiley's really limited, do they 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:41.240 really want to push Wiley with a playoff game the 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:44.480 following week? But they need now, They they might need 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:47.440 this game. They want this win. Trent Scott to me, 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:50.599 would be a liability there for them at right tackle 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:51.760 if that's the case. 0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:54.120 So please keep an eye on that one. 0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:56.240 All right, Uh, let's go ahead and dive in. Let's 0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:59.360 talk a little bit about this Washington defense. They are 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:02.440 an interesting bunch because right now they are third in 0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:06.560 pass defense but twenty eighth in rush defense. When you 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.240 dive into some of the numbers around their passing defense, 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:11.880 they're fifth in blitz percentage, so they're blitzing a lot. 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:16.160 They're also fourth in sack percentage. And and all that 0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:20.640 being said, they really only generated one sack against the Cowboys. Uh, 0:07:20.720 --> 0:07:23.800 and only two pressures or so, I'm sorry, two quarterback hits. 0:07:23.960 --> 0:07:27.080 That was Deron Payin who got the sack against Dallas. 0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:29.640 What did you see in that Dallas game? 0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:30.240 Uh? 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.920 That helped Dallas maybe negate what seems to be a 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:34.720 strength for this team. 0:07:34.240 --> 0:07:37.840 I will say I did see Frankie Louvo absolutely dominating 0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:40.200 that game. And I give credit to Brian while the 0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:42.080 game was going on, like, hey, he told y'all about 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:45.640 Frankie louvou. This guy is awesome. But I think as 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:49.040 the as the game went on, they they yeah, just 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:50.080 throwing Hey it. 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:55.560 Worked out, it worked out, while you hit one, right, But. 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.880 Uh, they relied on the run in that game, and 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:01.040 it ended up working out for them in the end. 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.000 But you look at most of that game, and most 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.160 of that game they couldn't generate points to save their life, 0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.280 and you look at the two late touchdowns that were 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.160 off of a kick return. So that final score was 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:13.400 thirty four to twenty six, but the offense really at 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:14.680 the end of the day was only able to put 0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:17.400 together twenty points and that only accounts for a couple 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:19.960 of touchdowns. Granted they had a couple of missfield goals. 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:21.360 I feel like they moved the ball. 0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:22.400 Down the field really well. 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:27.240 They tied that defensive front down and the long sustained 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:29.720 drives really helped them in that game getting down the 0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:31.480 field because they were keeping that defense on the field 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.200 for eight, nine to ten play drives. 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:34.840 But they just weren't able to execute at the end. 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:37.400 Can I quickly read my pregame notes for this one? Yeah, 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:41.200 real quick. Rush completed the second most passes twenty four 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:42.680 against the Commanders all year. 0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:43.000 Yep. 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:46.520 Cowboys offensive line only allowed six pressures on thirty two 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.160 drop backs. This tied for the fewest pressures the Commanders 0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:52.439 have allowed all season. Long that Atlanta had only six 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.880 pressures given up that game. The seven point nine yards 0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:58.320 per play were the fifth most the Commanders have allowed 0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:01.480 all season. The Commanders blitz Rush nine times in the 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.079 last meeting. This was the fifth fewest blitzes for them 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:07.400 for the season. Sixty three percent of the Cowboys routes 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.960 were open, which is the highest percentage the Commanders have 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:13.480 allowed all year. Twenty five percent of the Cowboys routes 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.200 were considered wide open. That's the fifth most for the 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:19.320 season for them. So you could kind of see that 0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:22.560 they and my final one here real quick of too. 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:26.960 Cowboys averaged almost four yards of target separation, which was 0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:30.040 the third highest allowed by the Commanders all year. Dallas 0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:31.280 played their ass off in that game. 0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:32.480 They really did. Offensive. 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:35.080 Cooper Rush was really really good, Matt, you know, if 0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:38.360 you look at him. Overall, the number of completions. The 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:40.760 twenty four, that's the second most they've given up in 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.040 all their games this year. You know, they've played some 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:47.800 pretty decent quarterbacks as well, So this is the challenge. 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:49.920 But you know, Ceedee Lamb was a big part of 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:50.960 what they were able to do. 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:53.880 But they attacked on a couple of different levels. They 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:57.000 went after Jeremy Chin, the safety. 0:09:56.520 --> 0:10:01.280 They got some matchups on him that proved beneficial as well. 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:03.480 So you know, the commanders have got to kind of 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:06.120 maybe come into this sing and rethink, you know, do 0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:08.560 we pressure Cooper rushmore? Do we blitz some more? You 0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:11.600 know they're gonna blitz. They're gonna blitz right about so 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:14.480 I'd say thirty four percent of the snaps is what 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:17.440 the numbers, the metrics will tell you. But it's pretty 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:19.920 balanced across the board. When they blitz, it's not just 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:22.719 all like third down blitzes. They'll blitz on first down, 0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:25.079 they'll blitz on second down. The blitz so but they 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:27.240 had Dallas has got to be ready for that, and 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:29.720 there's a lot of single high. Half their defense is 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:32.880 single high. If you had Dak and you had Ferguson. 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:35.360 This is where we always talk about attacking the seams 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:37.560 and maybe this is where Dallas kind of looks at 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:41.560 it too, with with with Chin and then also Kwan Martin. 0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:43.760 Kwan Martin was really involved in the Running Game the 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.080 last time you played. And that's what you're gonna have 0:10:46.120 --> 0:10:47.839 to do in the Running Game. It's it's gonna be 0:10:47.880 --> 0:10:51.839 about blocking Wagner and Luvu. Like like my man Nick 0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:54.880 here said, I think that you have to worry about 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.640 up front though for your pass rush stuff. Is Deron 0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:02.439 pain that that and they doubled him. He got doubled 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:04.480 more when you watch it, he got doubled more than 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:07.479 any of the other other Commander defenders. 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:09.000 I kind of feel like they're gonna go. 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:11.920 Into the same the same boat with with him and 0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:14.600 see how that all kind of plays out him Jonathan Allen, 0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:16.319 you know, we'll see they're really. 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:17.239 A good team inside. 0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:20.920 But they they they held Fouler in check, they held 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:24.680 Armstrong in check. It's the Frankie Luvus and guys like 0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:27.360 that Wagners that the ones that were that were running 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:29.920 to make those plays in the Running Game, but also 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:31.760 some of the pressures that they got, and they didn't 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:33.360 get a whole lot of pressure with their front. 0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:34.920 Yeah, let's let's take our first break. 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:36.760 When we come back, I'm gonna ask you guys the question, 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.960 how much do you think the familiarity that Dallas has 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.360 with dan Quinn and his system and even guys like 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:45.440 Dorn's Armstrong and Dante followers just mentioned, how much do 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:47.679 you think that affected that last game? As you've been 0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:50.520 mentioned some of those numbers, Brian Cowboys offense having some 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:53.760 of the best performance, having the best performance of their 0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:57.200 better off Washington has allowed this year.

The segment brought to you 0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:56.760 by blockchain dot Com. All right, question for you guys, 0:14:56.880 --> 0:15:00.200 how much did the familiarity familiarity that Dallas had with 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:03.640 Dan Quinn and guys like Dorn's Armstrong, Dante file though, 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:06.320 how much do you think that affected the game? 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:09.360 The last time the Cowboys played the Commanders. 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:11.880 I'll say this, and I noticed this in probably the 0:15:11.880 --> 0:15:14.720 fourth quarter of that game. It was like, Okay, we 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:18.120 haven't seen Dante Fowler, Drn's Armstrong really make a play 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:18.560 in this game. 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:20.200 And I don't know how much of that is them knowing. 0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:22.280 I don't think I have a great answer for your 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:25.320 question there, Derek, but I think I think that's certainly 0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:27.400 notable whenever you look at that. I think we saw 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:28.800 it more so on the other side of the ball 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:31.320 when we talked about it yesterday with Mike Zimmer hunting 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:35.000 matchups with Mike Mike Carson's after Tyler Piattish and him 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:35.840 knowing that he could. 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:38.200 Beat him, but defensively on the other side. 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:39.840 I don't think I have a straight answer there for you, 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:42.040 other than knowing that those guys really didn't make an 0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:42.840 impact in that game. 0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:46.800 I think it's funny because I think Dallas had an 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:49.440 understanding of what they wanted to do on defen or 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:53.120 wanted to do against the Commander's defense. I don't think 0:15:53.160 --> 0:15:56.640 the Commander's had a clue how to play Dallas Dallas's 0:15:56.680 --> 0:15:58.280 defense because. 0:15:58.000 --> 0:15:59.840 If you look at the way that that. 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:05.880 Annuals the rush the pressures, he was like one of nine, yeah, 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.040 throwing the ball and the one pass that was complete 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:12.080 was a touchdown. It was one of nine against pressure, 0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:15.720 and they didn't have a good handle on Micah Parsons 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:18.960 playing three technique, and you know it's it's really it 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:24.320 was good good on Dallas understanding Dan's defense, bad on 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:27.359 the commanders not understanding Dallas's defense. 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:31.040 And could it also be as a part of that, Brian, Yeah, 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:34.760 that the quarterback as a young quarterback and any experience, 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:37.040 he has not seen the kind of things that that 0:16:37.120 --> 0:16:38.920 Mike Zimmer can throw at you. Right, and we've staying 0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:41.200 with other young quarterbacks I've had to face this defense. 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:43.640 It can be a little challenging because it's just a 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:45.600 lot of different things that you have to adjust to 0:16:45.640 --> 0:16:47.960 and adapt to, and that's what makes it very tough. 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:50.040 Yeah, you know, all of a sudden, you're like thinking, 0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:52.120 Michaeh Parsons is going to come off the edge and 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:55.080 he's standing right there, like, you know, three feet from you, 0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:57.560 you know, against a guy that you during the season. 0:16:57.560 --> 0:16:59.600 You're like, oh, this guy's not gonna be able to 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:02.120 block my Parsons Alagrett, he's not going to get you know, 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:03.520 he's not going to get over there and get this. 0:17:03.520 --> 0:17:05.879 This could be a problem. And so yeah, and then 0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:08.479 all of a sudden, you get secondary blitzes. You know, 0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:12.520 you get Jordan Lewis and Wilson coming on a blitz. 0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:15.000 You know, like you're thinking, wait a minute, the nickel 0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:17.439 corner and the safeties both are coming on this blitz. 0:17:17.920 --> 0:17:19.440 So now that plays with your. 0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:20.000 Head a little bit. 0:17:20.040 --> 0:17:21.800 And I think they I think Mike did a really 0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:25.159 good job of confusing at Danielson and Cliff Kingsbury. I 0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:27.720 don't think Cliff Kingsbury adjusted very well to what they 0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:28.359 were doing either. 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:31.240 I will say I think they hunted matchups. I'm going 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:34.120 back through their numbers here. They hunted Noah BNAGHENI quite 0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:35.320 a bit with Ceede Lamb. 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:36.920 Like it was. It wasn't a lot of downfield action. 0:17:37.080 --> 0:17:41.200 The longest reception the CD know him, it was thirteen yards, exactly. 0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:43.240
