After 86 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: I worked for the Clippers for a little bit, and 87 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: then I moved to Atlanta for a couple of years 88 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: to Louisiana. Was a weekend sports anchor, so I covered 89 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: a lot of LSU raging Cajuns, mostly a little bit 90 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: of Saints, but I was mostly in Baton Rouge and 91 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: m Lafayette, so I did a lot of college stuff. 92 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: It was it was baseball season at the time, and 93 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: you know, got to cover them both going to the 94 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: College World Series and stuff like that. And came back 95 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: to LA. I did a digital YouTube channel for about 96 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: five years. Grew the channel from one hundred thousand subscribers 97 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: to one point five million, so I got a little following. 98 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: So shout out if you guys are watching or listening, 99 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 1: my old little fan group. But yeah, so that's basically 100 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,799 Speaker 1: what I've done. I've been a Cowboys fan since birth, 101 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: I said on the break the other day, because they 102 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 1: kind of introduced me a little last five minutes of 103 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: the show my Grandma's actually because it was cousins with 104 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: Bob Hayes. So like our whole family grew up Cowboys fans. 105 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: I ran a little track too. I was fast. I 106 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: was fast a little bit, a little bit even. I 107 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 1: did the one hundred, two hundred and four by one 108 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: and I was the anchor, so yeah, I could. I 109 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: could run. I can't anymore. I actually did a video once. 110 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: I'll have to show you guys later. I did with 111 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: a former NFL player. We did all the combined drills 112 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: because iast have a show called Press Pass with Britt Johnson, 113 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: so it's like me hanging out with athletes doing stuff 114 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: that's like not their sport or something different or whatever. 115 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: But he had me do all the combine stuff, and 116 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: I think I ran like a like a five eight 117 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: or something, or like a six eight flat. It was terrible, 118 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: but I had just broken my tailbone before that, so 119 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: I want to blame that in no conditioning. I probably 120 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: run like a five two right now, yeah, saying I'm 121 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: probably around there around So what do you think about 122 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: your carry coming in last? Where was your thought when 123 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: you saw that? Um? I think people should not talk 124 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: as much until they've already had stuff accomplished. So I 125 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: think that that's what that's what happens when you are 126 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: on camera or you know, on social media saying stuff 127 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: before you have even got to a place. So miss Richardson, 128 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: she should have spent more time training. I think I 129 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: don't think she did that. You had the sixth fastest 130 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: time in the world. She was, she was saying, But 131 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: I thought, did you at the time though? Like that's 132 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: it was? It was fun, it was it was fun 133 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: while lasted, I personally found the humor in it. As 134 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: people on Twitter um decided that they were going to 135 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: light her up, and she did it to herself that 136 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: she did run rant. She went behind her last. You 137 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: do ye like the currents to you came in last. 138 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: You didn't even make it. She wasn't even on a thing. 139 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: It was like one through eight and then eight through 140 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: and then she's she's not even from making was struggle. 141 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: You you in high school. You see the people who 142 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: were in it just the run and she was like 143 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: one of the folks like their parents don't go on. Yeah, 144 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: I honestly feel like her hair could have like held 145 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: her back because she had a lot of hair on 146 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: that Jase, and I feel like, yeah, like that's adding 147 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: like that's you know, take the weight off now like 148 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: you should have.

What about what about football? Yeah? 184 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: Can we talking about quarterbacks? Absolutely? Okay, So Church, another slug. 185 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I told you your boy Double G was 186 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: in trouble, double gone. He's officially gone now. Didn't they 187 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: re sign him on the practice No? No, he got 188 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: signed with the Patriots, didnity. So just to take you 189 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: back in it and believe that Danny and I have 190 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: been on a whole different side of the church. Church 191 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: believe that Garrett Gilbert was really going to be the 192 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: guy to win the backup spot, and we were like no, no, no, 193 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: no no, And he called him double G. I was 194 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: this guy. He's referring back to the Pittsburgh game last 195 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: year where Garrett play a nice football game that they lost. 196 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: They've been lost lost. He was bawling enough, Okay, like 197 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 1: I said, they lost any talking about the school. We 198 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 1: talking about what he did. So the Cowboys tried to 199 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: gift him the job. Dad gets the shoulders training that 200 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: it's all you get the preseason Double gk making. So 201 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: Will Grier is now the guy. But we I had 202 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 1: been saying since training camp, when you guys have me, 203 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: I said, told the backup quarterback not on this roster 204 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: right now? And they're going to basically, you know, go 205 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: bring someone in. The cuts happen and Gilbert gets cut 206 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: and I told you Danny the Russia is gonna get 207 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: the job. So Rush is the backup. They go pull 208 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: Will Grier off the offwa Carolina let him go and 209 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: understanding the situation for Greer, he was brought in by 210 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,719 Speaker 1: a different regime. Carolina got a new head coach and 211 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: Matt Rule. They got Sam Darling and he's also got 212 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: the one, the kid PJJ PJ Walker who Rule had 213 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 1: a temple, so he was their quarterback in two so 214 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: he's got his two guys. Greer's out. You bring Greer here. 215 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 1: He's got a relationship with Doug Nusser Florida righta. He 216 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: was his offensive coordinator. Ye Doug was down there, so 217 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: they know each other, which that goes back into the 218 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: whole thing we talked about with Cooper Rush and bringing 219 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: in a backup somebody who has an understanding of the system. Um, 220 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: that's a question I'd love to ask, well, how much 221 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: of what the Cowboys are running or things that you know? 222 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: But clearly nuss Meyer has a belief in Will Greer 223 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,719 Speaker 1: and they're bringing them in here. So with COVID going 224 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: on here, you're gonna need three quarterbacks throughout the year 225 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: on the active roster in my opinion. So yeah, Dak Press, 226 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: Scott Cooper Rush, and then you got Will Greer. And 227 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: for some reason, Mike McCarthy keeps letting Ben d Nucci 228 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: is that Pittsburgh connection, mister bird connection has got to 229 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: be you know, I'm scratching ahead at that one. Wow. 230 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: But you know, the Nucci, they must see some of them, 231 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: his athletic ability. They obviously think that he's better than Gilbert, 232 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: which is you know, beyond me. See, I think that's 233 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: a different situation. I think that you this this last guy, 234 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: you wanted to be a developmental guy, and at Garrett's age, 235 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: you know, you kind of are what you are. So 236 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: I can see them wanting to, you know, develop a D. Nucci. 237 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: But I'm thinking the Nucci's a jet. He's just a guy. 238 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: You can go finding the Ducie out there. It had 239 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: to be some people they were scouting and you know 240 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: the last two years and say, you know that guy's free, 241 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: let's bring him in here, versus been the Nucci. I 242 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: don't get it. I don't I just don't get the 243 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: nuci Britt, You think we made the right move as 244 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: far as exactly bringing him, bringing him go Greer and 245 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: putting the nucie on the practice wad um as far 246 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: as all Greer. No, just because he did play in 247 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: two games his rookie season and he is oh for 248 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: four or he had zero touchdowns, four interceptions, four interceptions. 249 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: And I actually wrote down some numbers because I wanted 250 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: to make sure I didn't, you know, talk him down. 251 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: I wanted to be as as accurate as possible. He's 252 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: had a total of two hundred and twenty eight yards. 253 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: He had a QBR of two point eight twenty eight 254 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: completions on fifty two attempts. So at what point does 255 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: do we look at that and say, maybe that's not 256 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: our guy? Like, why would you want a guy that 257 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: has not thrown a touchdown at all at all? Like what? 258 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: I just don't understand where the like logic comes with that. 259 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: It makes no sense to me. I think that that 260 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: was a bad decision to make. And yes, everybody's talking 261 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: about the whole Cam Newton stuff, and obviously we know 262 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: it's just because he hasn't been vaccinated, because at least 263 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: the man is thrown a touchdown? Would you rather have 264 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: Cam on you? Yes, I would absolutely Like he's thrown touchdown. 265 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: We know he can run a little bit still, like 266 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: we know that he I mean, he's a former NFL MVP. 267 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: I would take that over a guy that literally still 268 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: he's I mean, twenty six is not young in the league. 269 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: It's not old, but it's not young. He's still been 270 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: in the league for like a decent amount of time, 271 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: like to know or to have some experience towards like, Okay, 272 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: he hasn't thrown. He played two games cold against the 273 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: Cold Saints, all interception. So thumbs down from Brent and 274 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: Will Grier. Well, listen what I know about Will Grier 275 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: and his offensive coordinators back in twenty fifteen when they 276 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: were at Florida, LSU beat them thirty five twenty eight. 277 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: That's all I need to know about Grier, all right, 278 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: That's all I need to know about the dude. We 279 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: should have went to go get somebody else. I hope 280 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: we don't have to see him play in the game 281 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: because if we get that far down, so you can 282 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: count us as out of the playoff picture and no 283 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: Super Bowl for twenty twenty thumbs down from you, church 284 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: Will Greer thumbs up that. Look, I'm a thumbs in 285 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: the middle guy of guy right now, like I'm right 286 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: here with it. I'm you know, I'm gonna give him 287 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: a chance to see if him and nus Man got 288 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: a little connection or something like that. I don't expect 289 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: this guy to go out and play at all. I mean, if, 290 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: like you said, if we go from that to right now, 291 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: Cooper rush and we're all we get down to Wheal Greer, 292 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: the season's loss anyway, So I don't expect this guy 293 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: to get any playtime. I see him as a more 294 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: developmental project than Denucci. I'd rather have him out there, 295 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,439 Speaker 1: you know, getting the development, getting the reps in de Nucci. 296 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: But I'm overall, I'm you know, I'm gonna give him 297 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: a chance, Lenn, give him a chance. See if Maybehim 298 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: ughs Maeric can get a little connection going in like 299 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 1: hopefully we don't have to see him at all, but 300 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: we'll see she said two point eight QBR Yeah, yeah, 301 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: that's but let's let's go back a couple of years 302 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: when Dak was not Dak. Dak was a third string quarterback. 303 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: Everybody gets hurt and then Dak has to come we 304 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,959 Speaker 1: end up having he has this amazing, like record breaking 305 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: rookie like quarterback season. So it's like, when I look 306 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: at that, I'm like, no, we should at the third 307 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: person have somebody that's a decent quarterback that could come 308 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: in like Dak you know, fourth round pick, yes, and 309 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 1: we never expected to utilize him, but he came in 310 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: and did something even before Tony Romo had was undrafted, 311 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 1: you know, guys like Tom Brady, sixth round pick, all 312 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: of this kind of stuff. Like so I I just like, 313 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to be like, oh, well, we shouldn't 314 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: have to go to the third string guy, but the 315 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,719 Speaker 1: third string guy should be really good too when they 316 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: get put in that position to elevate to a level 317 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 1: like Dac died. When Dac was a rookie and everybody 318 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: had gotten hurt that year, and that wasn't really a 319 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: third I mean he was splitting the raps out there. 320 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: It was Showers. Yeah, it was one of the It 321 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: was one of those who were like at the time, 322 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: you're like, man, which would have saw, yeah, he was 323 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: better than Kellen Moore as well Jamal Showers.

Double double thumbs who 439 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: thumbs up? First off? To me, Will Greer, it's the 440 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 1: upgrade over Garrett Gilbert and Cooper Rush, So right out 441 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 1: the gate, I'm gonna give it to them because it's 442 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 1: an upgrade to me. O, yes, yes, yeah, I'd agree 443 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: on that one. Yes. And I'm thinking in a in 444 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: a view of long term. And here's a guy that many, 445 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: many years ago I thought the Cowboys should have kept around. 446 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: They didn't. They tried to sneak him through the waivers. 447 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: It didn't happen to the guy went on to have 448 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: a nice productive career and picked up a Super Bowl 449 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: ring As a backup quarterback, that was Matt Moore. And 450 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: when I think about the you know an ideal type 451 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,959 Speaker 1: backup quarterback for Dak Prescott. You know somebody who can 452 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: can be in the room and if you need to help, 453 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 1: you can kind of help you try to win three 454 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: or four games the way we saw Jason Garrett doing 455 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: his career. That's what I'm looking for. Matt Moore, That's 456 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: what I'm looking for. When my homes was out a 457 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: little bit, Andy Ree was able to curtail the offense 458 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: a little bit. Matt Moore is able to make the 459 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 1: throws and not kill the team. This is what I'm 460 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: looking for. So let me just make sure I staved there. Okay, 461 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: the games you talked about, when when Will Greer played? Yea, 462 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: when when when when he played? Um? That was a 463 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: team that was bad. The head coaching ron Rier, head 464 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: coach was fired. This was a bad Carolina team and 465 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: they went to him and you know he wasn't any good. 466 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: The team wasn't any good. Um. The coaching staff they 467 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: brought in last year, Matt Rule, they didn't want him. 468 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: They had their guys already, so they were doing what 469 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: they were doing there. I go back to what I 470 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: watched him in the Big twelve because I spent a 471 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 1: lot of time covering TCU football Will Greer under Dana Holgersson. 472 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: It was a good quarterback. Oh, he definitely was nice 473 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: at West Virginia. Good quarterback. I remember the game where 474 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: they were taking on Texas down there in Austin. Let 475 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: a comeback win there. So I look at him, said, 476 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: backup quarterback, good player, a guy who they could develop 477 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: behind a Dak Prescott and maybe have this guy here 478 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 1: for four or five years. That's what I'm looking for 479 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: in a Will Greer. That to me is what you 480 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: want and is in costing you any money when you 481 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 1: think about when they had uh, Kyle Orton here, Kyle 482 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: Orton cost him some cash and even Andy Don't last 483 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: year cost him some cash. This guy's not gonna be 484 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: a a He's not gonna be killing the cap here. 485 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 1: And so this is where I'm going to go to 486 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: Duck Nuss mim a quarterback coach, kell Him Moore, my 487 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, Mike McCarthy. You guys are also to be 488 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: offensive play Help make this guy better, Help make him 489 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: a Matt Moore, a guy that you could have under 490 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: in your sign into a contract, you know, if if 491 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: thinks can go well, signing away one of these two 492 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: three year contracts where you can have this position. Somebody 493 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: who's backing up DA quarterback said, backup Dak Prescott as 494 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: your backup quarterback and be okay, who's got a little 495 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: bit of skills? Are you more comfortable with, like, let's 496 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: just say week four it comes round, Are you more 497 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: comfortable with Greer as the as the primary backup rather 498 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: than a Cooper Rush? Great question. Here's the thing. How 499 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: much of the offense is he gonna know? And that's 500 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: the thing. So you know, he and nus Meier said 501 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: they've got a relationship until at least nus Meier knows 502 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 1: how does he learn. That's a big thing about coaching. 503 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: He's trying to figure out, Okay, how do your players learn? 504 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: How do they digest the information? Clearly nuss Meyer has 505 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: talked to more McCarthy and Will McClay and Stephen Jones 506 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: since they brought Greer in here. I think that the 507 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 1: situation in Carolina tough situation, warm didn't work out. But 508 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: I also remembered at the time during the draft when 509 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: he was taken, this was thought to be a good pick. 510 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: But circumstances happen in the national football You guys, as 511 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: former players understanding, know God may come right here, may 512 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: not fit there, can go somewhere else. I look at 513 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: him at Florida. What the fitted Florida end up going 514 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: to West Virginia. Good football player West Virginia. So let's 515 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: see how much they can unlock from him there. I 516 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: like that versus you keeping Garrett Gilbert. And as far 517 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: as Cooper Rush goes, look Cooper Rush, in my opinion 518 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: right now, that's what they should do. Dad gets hurt 519 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: This dude does know the offense. He has been a 520 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: backup here. You're gonna need three quarterbacks because of COVID regardless, 521 00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: and they weren't bringing in they weren't gonna bring in 522 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: new Jerry Jones. Vouchers is vouching for Cooper Rush, is 523 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: all all I'm saying. So he's vouching for the handle 524 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: that he has on the offense. How will he knows it? 525 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: So you can expect to see Cooper Rush be the 526 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 1: backup guy. I think for this entire season. You think 527 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna go to hold the holes. Yeah, I believe, So, Okay, 528 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: if if that's the case, I just I don't like 529 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: I feel like Will and Cooper are the same guy. 530 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: Like I feel like they are twinsies and they just 531 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: are the same. So I would have rather brought in 532 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: a veteran quarterback that can actually help them and like, 533 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: you know, work through stuff, not just you know, the 534 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: coach is kind of coming in. But I think it 535 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: makes a difference. Again, I've never played football, but I 536 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: don't so I don't know, but I think it makes 537 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: a difference when your teammate is coming and kind of 538 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: giving you pointers and stuff like that. Versus coaches sometimes. 539 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: So it's like, if we're gonna have three quarterbacks, if 540 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush is going to be the main backup quarterback 541 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: the whole entire season, why not bring in somebody as 542 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: a third guy that can help Because honestly, Dak hasn't 543 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,239 Speaker 1: really been in a lot of these positions as far 544 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: as playoff wise and making it to the NFC Championship 545 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: and making it to a Super Bowl and stuff like 546 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: that either. So it's like, why not bring in a 547 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: guy that can honestly help Dak and you know, the 548 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: backup quarterback develop their skills and develop you know, whatever 549 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,719 Speaker 1: leadership stuff that they need to do this season. That's 550 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: just what I think. And yes, Andy Dalton should have 551 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: been that guy because he was, you know, nine years 552 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: as a as a starting quarterback prior to that, but 553 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: he wasn't. But I do feel like having a veteran 554 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: quarterback in that situation with three guys, with having to 555 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: have three quarterbacks, just to me makes more sense. You know, 556 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: I think like Dak feels that veteran role in that 557 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: leadership role, yes, but no, just because I just feel 558 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: like he hasn't. There's certain situations that he hasn't been 559 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: in you know, like the Cowboys haven't done much since, 560 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, forever, honestly forever. It sounds like you're describing 561 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: Cam Newt. Sounds like you're describing a guy. Yeah, he 562 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: played in a super Bowl. You know, he's a former 563 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: NFL MVP. So it's just like, yes, I get the 564 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: whole COVID thing, but to me, that would have made 565 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: the most sense just to be that kind of like leader. 566 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: And honestly from hard knocks and stuff, from what I watched, 567 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: I didn't really see like a ton of like the 568 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: camaraderie with the players as much like DA's just always 569 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: a zeque, like they're just bfs and you just see 570 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: them too together, but you don't see the energy of 571 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: everybody kind of like hanging out and doing stuff like 572 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: I've seen in past season. So I think that kind 573 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: of goes into my thought of like, Okay, yeah, he's 574 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: probably a leader. He probably loves football. He's a great 575 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: football player. He wants to be out there and play. 576 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: But I don't like see him as like talking as 577 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: a as a talking leader. I see him as more 578 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: of an action leader, lead by action type of guy. Okay, 579 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: I don't know you latched that last episode of Hard Knocks. 580 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: I didn't see. I told you here's mister also introvert. 581 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: He was he was happing it, okay, good was mister 582 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: introvert Demari Cooper. All of a sudden, Dad gets in 583 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: his ear, gets him going, He's out here trade big. 584 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: And then after after it's all done, he's getting Cooper's 585 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: walked out the field man. That's not normally me. I 586 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: need to apologize a two seven. But Dad got me going. 587 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: Dad got me going. Dak is the hype man. When 588 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: you talk about just that that guy on the offense, 589 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: you know who who gets guys going, It's Dak and 590 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: Terrell basham Is before he got hurt, was one of 591 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: the guys that was bringing the energy on the defensive side. 592 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: And so I was asking him, you know who's that 593 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: guy on the offensive side? Is Dak? And I asked, 594 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: Dak at the press comes like, who's that guy that's 595 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: getting people going? Oh, that's me, that's me ya, And 596 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: so so four is a guy who and that was 597 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: also essentially too why he kept his job his rookie year. 598 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: His ability to relate to so many people in the 599 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: locker room and Barry, you gonna doubt you know exactly that. 600 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: You had guys like Jason Whitton and Tony Romo were boys, 601 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: established veterans. They shared a suite at AT and T State, 602 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: their families shared a suite. These guys were there, and 603 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: you had Jason Witten saying, you know what, man, Dak's 604 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,719 Speaker 1: earned the job. I mean when when your boy, your 605 00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: ride or die boys is not sitting up here, you know, 606 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: vouching for you, Zach Martin. So, Dak's ability to reach 607 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: across the room and have so many people love for it. 608 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: And I'll always go back to when he left the 609 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: field last year. You just you just didn't see all 610 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: the cowboys here. You saw the giant. You saw the 611 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: giants right there, and then across the league, the way 612 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: people were talking about him, and you know, I go 613 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: back to my own kid, the way he reached out 614 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: to my kid in June. Yeah. Oh yeah, that's yeah, 615 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: your youngest one, right, yeah, the youngest one. Yeah. We 616 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 1: were getting COVID tests yesterday and I saw, I saw Dak. 617 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: He was leaving out as I was going in. I asked, 618 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: how's your brother doing. I say, he's good. Man said, 619 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: thanks for asking he says, how's your daughter? So she 620 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: had a little tough day of school the other day, 621 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: he said, tell her, I said, to keep her head up. 622 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: He's that type of dual. So she comes home from 623 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: school yesterday and I said, hey, Dak said keep your 624 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: head up, and it brought a smile to her face. 625 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: He's he's a special kind of guy. And I don't 626 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 1: say that very often about many guys. I've covered a 627 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: lot of people, but for is a special guy who 628 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: reaches out to a lot of people. And I think 629 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: the Jones family can rest assured that their money in 630 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: him is well invested. It's well when you talk about it, 631 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 1: a quarterback having it. That's why I go back to 632 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: you what he did Mississippi State. Then he beating in 633 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: the LSU and when we had seen we hadn't seen 634 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 1: Mississippi State do anything like that since since that guy 635 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: left the building. And you think about it, Okay, how 636 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: many dudes raw in that Mississippi State team ended up 637 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 1: going there? Were ranked number one in the college football 638 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: for a while. How do those guys went to the league. 639 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure about, especially on the offensive side. I 640 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: mean four is for him and special, so so so 641 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: we got him on who's gonna be that guy on 642 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball, because that, I mean, 643 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: I'm looking at you think I'm looking at I'm looking 644 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: at Kiano Nil just because he knows dan Quinn and 645 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: I would imagine that when they're in those meetings in 646 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: the meeting room and he's presenting players as leaders. You 647 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: know our coaches do hey, man, follow this guy. I 648 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't imagine that dan Quinn is saying, hey, follow forty two. 649 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: You don't think it's gonna be you know, Marcus Lawrence 650 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,879 Speaker 1: and none of those guys that's been established the side 651 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 1: of the ball. I think the Marcus Lawrence will lead 652 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: the defensive line room. But as far as the were 653 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: all leads, I think Kean O'Neill is going to be 654 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 1: the voice. He is he both. I don't think he 655 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: has a choice. I mean because if you look around, 656 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: it's it's the Marcus Lawrence. And then who is the 657 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: other veteran presence that because you got as much as 658 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: I hate to say, you can't guys aren't gonna listen 659 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: to guys that aren't playing right. Like we've been in 660 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 1: that long room, they're not they're not That's why when 661 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: we talked about Tim Tebow coming in and being this leader, 662 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna listen to the third string tight end on 663 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: the field. Who is your guy? When we when who 664 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: was our guy that was that was that defensive leader 665 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: man for us, I would have to say the Marcus 666 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: Ware and it was Dware or maybe even a Hatcher 667 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: When I would I would say Hatcher more because Hatcher 668 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: Hatcher was he touched every every unit. He touched every unit, 669 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,800 Speaker 1: the line, linebackers, secondary. Hatcher touched every unit. So you 670 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 1: gotta have a guy on the defensive side of the 671 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: ball like that that when things are going terrible, that 672 00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: he can he can pick us up, he can let 673 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: us go. Jacksonville, who's that guy? It was? It was 674 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: on me and it was on Klai's Campbell. We were 675 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: those two guys. I kind of had to be the 676 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 1: manager back there because I had a lot of personalities 677 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: in my secondary. I mean you got Ramsey boy, yeah, 678 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: I mean we had a lot of different personalities and 679 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: it was like young team, young team. So I was 680 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:17,879 Speaker 1: kind of the manager. But the guy that pretty much 681 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: got everybody together was kalai As Campbell, And you need 682 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 1: that every every team I've been a part of that 683 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,800 Speaker 1: had success, had that one guy that was like, you 684 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: know what, we're gonna follow him, whether it be offensively, defensively, 685 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: whoever it is. We had to have that one guy. 686 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: And the teams that haven't been a part of, like 687 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 1: our twenty and fifteen team when Romo went down, we 688 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: had so many quarterbacks, we didn't have that veteran presence, 689 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: we didn't have a leader in the locker room, and 690 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 1: we felled the shambles. I mean, we failed the shambles 691 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: that year. So we also had Greg Hardy and yeah, 692 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 1: and that's you know, we didn't know what these are 693 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: the veterans that the young guys are gonna supposed to 694 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 1: look up to. And I just wonder, who's that guy 695 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball this year. Yeah, 696 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 1: I'm I'm giving it forty two. But you know, all 697 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: the onners to me is going on on band Quinn, 698 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: my guy, right, he's gonna get them right. They call 699 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:05,800 Speaker 1: him d Q. You see, he he's game. He's gained 700 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: the respect of that defense and they played for him. 701 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 1: So I'm excited to will they'd be a top ten 702 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: defense this year? Come over? It psychic. No, no, I 703 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: smell a bet. I don't know, just especially because so 704 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: many people just didn't play in preseason and they never 705 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: really got to play against the first team a lot 706 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: in preseason, um just practicing and stuff like that. I 707 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: just feel like, um, we're because when I saw the 708 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 1: Jacksonville game, I just felt like the defense just looked 709 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: kind of I will say this, I think, as I said, 710 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: I think the way that the offense plays will determine 711 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: if we're a top ten defense. I think so if 712 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 1: you think if they're holding the ball, if you're a 713 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: convert those third downs, play keep away in games where 714 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: you need to play keepaway like Camper right, if you're 715 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: able to do that, then you can have guys like 716 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 1: the Marcus Launce and Randy Gregory pinning their ears back 717 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,399 Speaker 1: and go rush the quarterback, not having to worry about 718 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: play action and run and then Russian cover and getting picks. 719 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: And you were there, bro, we got takeaways. We were 720 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: rested because the Marco Murray was running the ball. But 721 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: I say that goes back to Kellen Moore. It does 722 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: is he gonna be out there playing Madden or is 723 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: he gonna be out there? You know? Playing the smart game. 724 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. So once again, that's a different regime 725 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: you got. You two keep talking about what what you 726 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: used to do the old days. But that's what we're 727 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: gonna run football. We're gonna do that. And what happened exactly. 728 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: That's why why do I get off the Mike train? 729 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: What happen? Because I was lied to you almost got 730 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 1: that's what almost happened. I mean I would, I would 731 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: assume that scheme, that ball too many times last year. 732 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna be that. We're gonna revert to that offense. Hey, 733 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: dan Quinn, I'm on your side, man, I would listen. 734 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: I want you to do great top ten defense. I'm 735 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: here for you. And uh wait because no, no, no, 736 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: so that bet want us to be a top ten defense. 737 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: But I just think it's gonna take a little mid season. 738 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: I think we'll start getting there, but it'll be too 739 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 1: late to kind of come back up. And I'm taking 740 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: all bets. Okay, I'm taking all that. I'm taking bets 741 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 1: we will be a top ten defense that includes us 742 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: being number ten. All right, if we number eleven whatever, 743 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: I'll be a little salty about it, but let's okay. 744 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,720 Speaker 1: Let me write this down. Yes, it's a season September 745 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 1: two d overall in the run or so total defense, 746 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: total defotal defense, total defense, thank you. I don't think 747 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 1: we need I mean, like, if we're top ten defense day, 748 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: that's that's a that's a bonus. I don't think we 749 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: need to be with this explosive offense, but we'll see. 750 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 1: To win the Super Bowl, you need to You're gonna 751 00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: need a top ten defense. Yeah. I'm one of those 752 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,320 Speaker 1: people that it's like OFFENSI those tickets. Defense wins games, 753 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: Like I feel like the defense has to be there. 754 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 1: Even the Patriots last win that was defense that was 755 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 1: not Tom Brady. That defense when they won the Super Bowl. No, 756 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 1: they were not. No, and think you're talking about what 757 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 1: but oh, by the way, you don't you you're not them. 758 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 1: But we know. What I'm saying is we won't beat 759 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: them if we don't. If we don't have a top 760 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: ten defense, it's likely that we will see Kansas City 761 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl and we're going to need a defense. 762 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we're going we can't have last year say yeah, 763 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 1: we can't be like, we can't have Kansas City defense. 764 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: And even their defense isn't Matthews out there making whatever, 765 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 1: and that's all we I think that's all we need.

Due? 822 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: I sure hope this don't backfire. You know what, it 823 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 1: won't be any worse than the back par y'all. A 824 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: part of me is, like, you know, I want him 825 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,760 Speaker 1: to eat. I want you to get that same feeling 826 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 1: the betrayal that I had. Betrayal man, okay, but but 827 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 1: it's okay. I don't want I don't want to wish. 828 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,839 Speaker 1: I don't want to wish bad on you, the bad 829 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: I had on you, um, the way I went through 830 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,359 Speaker 1: with McCarthy, because because it hurts top ten, DQ, baby, 831 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 1: Harry Queen, whatever it is we get. Let me ask 832 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: you a quick question. What do y'all think is the 833 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 1: biggest reason these guys kind of I don't know, they 834 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 1: gravitate towards dan Quinn or whatever they're doing, but they're 835 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: playing better. We're gonna see that they're playing better on 836 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:51,840 Speaker 1: the defensive side of bout. What is the biggest What 837 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:53,800 Speaker 1: do you think to come Because it's the same almost. 838 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 1: I mean, they brought some players in, but a lot 839 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:59,879 Speaker 1: of those players that played terrible last year. Remember when 840 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 1: and Monty Kiffin was here right, how hard it was 841 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: for him to relate to the players, and we are 842 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 1: sitting the meeting room, like is the dude sleep because 843 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,279 Speaker 1: he was coming in and you're like, what is he 844 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 1: talking about? Like he could not get you am for 845 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,359 Speaker 1: the game. He couldn't, he could not get it right. 846 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: He couldn't get you the hustle belon couldn't reach his play, 847 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 1: you know. But that's what guys were saying, like, brothers 848 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 1: have no idea what he's talking about, right, So I 849 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: think the same thing happened with Nolan. He came in 850 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 1: and he didn't get the respect of the players that 851 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 1: were there. And when they seen dan Quinn come in, 852 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: they said, man, this dude coach the leasion, the boom. 853 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 1: He's Super Bowl win a defensive coordinator, he almost won 854 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 1: the second Super Bowls. He knows what he's doing. His 855 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,840 Speaker 1: formula works all right, So he's gonna put us in 856 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 1: position to make the plays and get us paid. Really, 857 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: so we're gonna follow this formula. And you can see 858 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 1: they're playing harder than they played last season. Yea off 859 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,560 Speaker 1: season two competence team matters. They look at him and 860 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 1: they believe he has competency. I also think it helps 861 00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 1: out when we saw Quinn during training camp out here 862 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:04,759 Speaker 1: actively involved in group in group drills. I mean he's 863 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 1: out here, um, you know with the d lineman, putting 864 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: on pass working, putting on the pad, you know, putting 865 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 1: on the paddy and he's working with guys. So I 866 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: mean he's right there in there. And actually it's not 867 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: just sitting here. Hey, Danny, do this. This, this, he's 868 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 1: actually actually doing this is where I want you to be. 869 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 1: So I think that matters when you get a coach 870 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: who's actively involved. And look, let's let's just be honest. 871 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 1: Last year, man, when Mike McCarthy said it was going 872 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 1: to be players over scheme that that was not the 873 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 1: case with Mike Nolan defensively, Mike, no one's gonna sit 874 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 1: up here. I mean this, and this is frustrating for me, Danny, 875 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 1: And why I really really caught upset last year with 876 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:41,320 Speaker 1: McCarthy is like, Dude, when I'm a media member and 877 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 1: I see what you're doing as a team is is 878 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 1: just makes me scratch my head. That's a problem because 879 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: you guys are getting paid and you're supposed to be experts. Hey, 880 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 1: let's put Layton Van direction middle linebacker. What guy made 881 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl that at the week side, and then 882 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 1: you got neck problem. Why are we gonna get this 883 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 1: guy up in the crack? And then we go put 884 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 1: Jaylen out here on the wheel, like did you not 885 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:02,719 Speaker 1: watch the I mean, I'll never forget the Bears game 886 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 1: was that Thursday night and the soldier feel cold and 887 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 1: watching Jalen get tore up bout Mitchell Tropisky, Tripisky, Tripisky, 888 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:10,839 Speaker 1: and he's like, this is not what he does best. 889 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: So I go back to what Doug Collins once said, 890 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: the former NBA coach with the Bulls. He said, your 891 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,800 Speaker 1: job as a coach is to understand your player's awards 892 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 1: covered up. Basically, don't put your players in a bad position. 893 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,120 Speaker 1: And if you watch and if you have not watched 894 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: the Nick Saban Bill Belichick HBO documentary, Belichick says, you 895 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 1: cannot overcome bad coaching. And last year the Cowboys had 896 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,359 Speaker 1: bad coaching defensively, and Mike Nolan was here because Mike 897 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: McCarthy gave him the job and Mike McCarthy seemingly repaid Nolan, 898 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: who made him the offensive coordinator of the San Francisco 899 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: forty Niners. And Nolan was a head coach and he 900 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 1: repaid the favor and it was awful. It was just 901 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 1: awful what they did last year. So now you got 902 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 1: vander Rash. When we talked to Vander Strain, games like 903 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: hit men, Look, I like this defense. I mean, the 904 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 1: guys are basically saying, I'm where I need to be. 905 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: So the fact that you got a difference coordinator who 906 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 1: comes in here and realizes, hey, this is what I 907 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,080 Speaker 1: do best. I mean, brit if you are if if 908 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 1: if Derek puts you in the position to give you 909 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: your best work, then that's gonna make you feel good. 910 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,560 Speaker 1: If it got you in the wrong spot, you're what 911 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 1: am I doing? What am I doing? That's that's everybody. 912 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 1: Whatever did you do? You want to be put in 913 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 1: the best position possible, And last year this defense was it. 914 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 1: And these guys basically all told you the story afterwards, 915 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 1: and when James Slayton was out here, when the NFL 916 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: network people around here want to make it seem like 917 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 1: she was crazy. No, she got it from the players. 918 00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 1: We still don't know who Anonymous was. We're still a 919 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 1: good Yeah, I think we got a pretty good idea. 920 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 1: But when you know when you got you got Everson 921 00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 1: Griffin sitting out here, Hey, can you trade me? Please 922 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: trade me. They're like, fine, we'll trade you. It was bad. 923 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 1: It was bad. So when you talk about dan Quinn 924 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 1: dq um, why is it different? A lot of it's 925 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,399 Speaker 1: just competency and it believed that you know what you're doing. 926 00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 1: I can guarantee you you will not hear anybody say 927 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,320 Speaker 1: that we can't as to the ball for the entiregoy 928 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 1: that that will be the statement of the defense from 929 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 1: last year when your starting safety says, you expect me 930 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,680 Speaker 1: to hustle every play. Now, what are you talking about? Bro? 931 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 1: This professional football? Even even if you're not, you're gonna 932 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 1: put your people out that like that in a contract year. 933 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 1: That's what. You don't have respect for your defensive coordinator 934 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,359 Speaker 1: and your defensive coaches when you can go out there 935 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: and you can make them look bad like that. I 936 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,440 Speaker 1: go back to it. Okay, you covered, you covered the Clippers. 937 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 1: You saw some bad coaching out there. At times. I 938 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:34,319 Speaker 1: saw a bad coaching. I was out that coverny when 939 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: I covered the Clippers. I saw some good coaching. And 940 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 1: it's all some bad coaching, But coaching matters. And you 941 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 1: see an NBA. The NBA to me is one of them. 942 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 1: That's one of the leagues when you clearly can see 943 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 1: like that dude don't know what you do. Absolutely yeah, 944 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,880 Speaker 1: and players not buying in if it's anything. I mean, 945 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 1: that's one league where you clearly seeing the players ain't 946 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: buying into the coach. I mean that's really I mean 947 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 1: because the players control everything. Yeah, yeah, the players literally 948 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 1: control everything. Now they will say in press conferences whatever 949 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 1: they need to do. They let people know what what's 950 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: going on in their locker room. Like you can tell 951 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: now by the way, guess we got to ask her 952 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 1: this real question. Clippers really yeah, I'm a Clippers fan. Really, yes, really, 953 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,280 Speaker 1: thank you. I really want to hear this. Having covered 954 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,120 Speaker 1: having covered sports and LA, I really want to hear 955 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:28,840 Speaker 1: the Clippers. So I mean, growing up as a child 956 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: because it was a family if my family liked the Lakers, 957 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 1: so you know, I the Lakers were good when I 958 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 1: was younger, so it was cool. But then my first 959 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,399 Speaker 1: NBA game I ever went to was a Clipper game. 960 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,560 Speaker 1: And Clippers have they sucked for a really long time, 961 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:47,800 Speaker 1: so they were really big on their entertainment. There's a 962 00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:49,840 Speaker 1: lot of a lot going on at the game. There's 963 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 1: you know, they have different acts before me. Their dance 964 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:55,800 Speaker 1: team is really good, like the Clippers just focused on 965 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,759 Speaker 1: the entertainment. So the games were really fun. Question, Yeah, 966 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 1: because I have to have to.

It's like it's 982 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:02,919 Speaker 1: a big old room and then right there's a little 983 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 1: a fields. It was just it was a letdown from 984 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: what I'd seen on TV. It's actually seen and the 985 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,480 Speaker 1: same thing with a form it was that it was 986 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 1: a letdown. Um so that's all I want to say, 987 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 1: where'd you because because yeah, is that the old whatever? 988 00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: The old? I was young. I was like probably like 989 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 1: twelve or something like that or eleven, and then um, yeah, 990 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:25,840 Speaker 1: I became a Clippers fan. And then you know, we 991 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 1: had the Corey mcgetti's, the Daarius smile, Like you know, 992 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 1: I just started liking those guys. I liked the underdog 993 00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 1: situation of it, you know, And so I was like, 994 00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:35,239 Speaker 1: everybody's a Lakers fan, so I'm gonna be a Clippers fan. 995 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 1: And then my first job out of college was, you know, 996 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:40,279 Speaker 1: for the Clippers. So I was like, this gonna this 997 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: is gonna be my team. And yes I did cry 998 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 1: when Kai got hurt this year, I did, you know, 999 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 1: gonna lie? What about last year when they were in 1000 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 1: the bubble, did you cry when they lost? Well? Last 1001 00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 1: year I was. I was very aware of the fact 1002 00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 1: that we literally didn't have any Our starting lineup did 1003 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 1: not see each other until the first playoff game. Like 1004 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:06,120 Speaker 1: all during the bubble, they were people were hurt, people 1005 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: were out, like there was issues all the time. So 1006 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:10,960 Speaker 1: I kind of knew that there was going to be 1007 00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:14,360 Speaker 1: some issues with the playoffs. I didn't really expect us 1008 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:16,520 Speaker 1: to necessarily win last year, even though I thought we 1009 00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:19,080 Speaker 1: could have. But this year, I really really thought we 1010 00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:24,440 Speaker 1: were gonna take it. He played, He played well this year, 1011 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 1: and he went to friendlay State too, So I always 1012 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 1: got a Rapaul George last year. Yeah, y'all should have 1013 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 1: cut him from the alumni chat. And then this year 1014 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 1: y'all could add him back because playoff and the bubble 1015 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 1: was he was rough. And then this year he came 1016 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 1: back and did his thing when Kawhi was out.

We've been talking 1057 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 1: positively about the defense that much changing, like just this 1058 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:50,040 Speaker 1: short amount of time without like really doing a lot 1059 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:52,719 Speaker 1: of work in preseason, you know, but we just we 1060 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,320 Speaker 1: went back to a four three. We went back to 1061 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,960 Speaker 1: what what our players are used to doing. And when 1062 00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 1: they were playing a four to three, they were on 1063 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 1: the open up. As soon as no longer came in 1064 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 1: and put that three four in, they you know, they 1065 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 1: hopped off a cliff. Who's gonna start on the other 1066 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,400 Speaker 1: side of Dicks. There's a corner. It's got to be 1067 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 1: right now, it's gotta be, like I would like to 1068 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,879 Speaker 1: see what Calvin Joseph has, what no Seawn Wright has 1069 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: out there. But I don't think they're ready and especially 1070 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:19,279 Speaker 1: for that, for that receiving cor we got coming in 1071 00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 1: here or we got going in Tampa Bay. The right 1072 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:24,919 Speaker 1: does not want to see any of those guys that's 1073 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:29,400 Speaker 1: on Tampa. I don't know if Brown doesn't, because I 1074 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 1: ain't gonna lie. He's gonna do better. He's gonna do 1075 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 1: better than the two guys. It's Brown's weakness. Balls, well, 1076 00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:40,839 Speaker 1: that's all. He going to get two guys over six too. 1077 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:43,000 Speaker 1: And we've seen it all last year when it's jump 1078 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 1: ball time, my boys getting you know, he's getting that shave, 1079 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 1: that hand shaved. You know what. I'm band Quin's gonna 1080 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,240 Speaker 1: get him, right, bro. No word the Cowboys coach size, 1081 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, but we'll see the Cowboys already 1082 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 1: seven and a half point underdog right now. Is they 1083 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: get ready to go take on Tampa Bay Thursday night? 1084 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: And Danny says the Cowboys are gonna score thirty points 1085 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 1: and win the game. If I did not work for 1086 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:07,360 Speaker 1: NFL club, I would take that bet. I'm just telling you, 1087 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 1: I would take it. I think it'll be closer than 1088 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 1: people think. I would think it'll be closer than I 1089 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:13,880 Speaker 1: think Tampa will you know, get the dub eventually, But 1090 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 1: I think it'll be closer than a lot of people think. 1091 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna run the ball on these dudes. Hopefully, Kellen, 1092 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 1: you hear that we're gonna run the ball. We're gonna 1093 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 1: run the ball. I know you don't listen to the players, 1094 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: but but somebody gonna put this tape in his ear. 1095 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,880 Speaker 1: We're gonna to run the ball on Tampa. You got 1096 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:30,040 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown on my fantasy team. Should I start in 1097 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 1: that game? I would, Yeah, I would, but you ain't 1098 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 1: getting that trophy back I've got. I've got grunk too. 1099 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 1: Should I start grunking? I start grunk, But you ain't 1100 00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 1: getting that trophy back. If you started Antonio Brown, it's 1101 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 1: gonna be a bad start for you. Man. You got 1102 00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 1: other options that that that you should start over Antonio. Well, 1103 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 1: you know, do what you do. Do what you do, man, 1104 00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:53,080 Speaker 1: It's okay. Whatever you want. You don't. You don't play fantasy, 1105 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 1: but it is bread. It is a It is a 1106 00:57:56,480 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 1: love topic here. So um, real quick, what does our 1107 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:04,439 Speaker 1: defense gotta do to slow down Tampa? And Tom Brady. 1108 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 1: What are we gonna have to do defensively to make 1109 00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 1: this a good game. Gotta get pressure at the middle 1110 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 1: on time. We got it on the edges for sure. 1111 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 1: Got to get some pressure to be having in the middle. 1112 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 1: We don't got galla more. Do we have it in 1113 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 1: the middle to get pressure? We know that's his weakness. 1114 00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 1: Do we have it? D Mac? What we gotta do? Man, listen, 1115 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna just say that. I don't believe we're gonna 1116 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,760 Speaker 1: shut them down. What we have to do is when 1117 00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:30,360 Speaker 1: we get the opportunity to make the big plays, we 1118 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 1: have to make them, all right. We we understand that. 1119 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,520 Speaker 1: You know Tom's gonna come out, He's gonna complete those plasts, 1120 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 1: He's gonna get those third and shorts, he's gonna convert those. 1121 00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 1: What we have to do is when we have the 1122 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 1: opportunity to get that turnover or get that three and out, 1123 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 1: we have to maximize those opportunities so we can get 1124 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:47,080 Speaker 1: the ball back to our offense. Because I think our 1125 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 1: offense is going to score some points on them. We 1126 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 1: have to get more possessions than they do and we 1127 00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 1: win that game. I don't see it shutting them down. 1128 00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:55,440 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not I'm not gonna be crazy with 1129 00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:57,160 Speaker 1: that one, but I think we need to make sure 1130 00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:59,959 Speaker 1: that we capitalize on big play opportunities. We gotta do. Britt, 1131 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:02,160 Speaker 1: I agree with both of you guys. I do think 1132 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:05,280 Speaker 1: it's pressure and opportunity because again, we know Tampa's coming 1133 00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 1: with all their twenty two starters all back, you know, 1134 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 1: and they're big, they're fast there, they have they have 1135 00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 1: the you know, receiving game, they have the run game, 1136 00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 1: they have like literally all the pieces there. I feel 1137 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 1: like they're probably one of the more complete teams in 1138 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:22,640 Speaker 1: the league this season. So I think we really just 1139 00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:25,320 Speaker 1: if we have opportunities, we need to take them, like, 1140 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: you know, like any little bit. We need to like 1141 00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 1: put pressure on them. We need to find these little 1142 00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 1: ways we can kind of sneak in kind of thing, 1143 00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:34,720 Speaker 1: like I don't know if that makes sense, so we 1144 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 1: have to I'm not a football player, so I don't 1145 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:40,560 Speaker 1: talk like you guys do, but I do feel like 1146 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 1: we do have to find these little moments where we 1147 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,960 Speaker 1: can capitalize on because they're not They're going to play 1148 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:47,520 Speaker 1: their game and we're not going to be able to 1149 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:49,360 Speaker 1: take away from what they're already doing. We just have 1150 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:53,280 Speaker 1: to find little ways to make ourselves, you know, competitive 1151 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:56,680 Speaker 1: against them. Okay, third and twelve, those are when I 1152 00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 1: say big plays. That's what I mean. Third and twelve. 1153 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:00,479 Speaker 1: Get off the field. We got it right. We gotta 1154 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 1: limit the yak. Yes, we gotta limit the yac. Look, 1155 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 1: we know, you know Brady's a master third down. He's 1156 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 1: gonna get the ball out of his hands quick. You're 1157 01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 1: gonna let the space players do what they do. We 1158 01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:10,920 Speaker 1: gotta limit that yak. That's what killed us last year, 1159 01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 1: two to three yard passes, turning it in the fifteen 1160 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,760 Speaker 1: to twenty yard games. We gotta limit that yack yarders 1161 01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:17,560 Speaker 1: if we're gonna have a chance against these people. And yeah, 1162 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,600 Speaker 1: stopped the run in one area. To me that the 1163 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:23,919 Speaker 1: Cowboys have to win Thursday night against Tampa. You gotta 1164 01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:27,520 Speaker 1: win special teams. We hadn't seen any field goals and 1165 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,480 Speaker 1: then one field goal we saw against Jacksonville was a 1166 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 1: fifty six yard miss. I mean, they've got they've got 1167 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 1: to have a good special teams game. You've got to 1168 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:38,160 Speaker 1: be able to get down on punch. You've got to 1169 01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:39,680 Speaker 1: be able to convert your field goal. I mean, you 1170 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 1: just can't have any errors too many times in the 1171 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:44,440 Speaker 1: last two years. In my opinion, I think the Cowboys 1172 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 1: have lost the special team's phase of the game. We 1173 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 1: saw it cost them at New England two years ago 1174 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:53,560 Speaker 1: and ended up costing Jason Garrett his job. Keith though 1175 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 1: Quinn lost his job out of it. The Cowboys, in 1176 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:58,920 Speaker 1: my opinions, still not got to that point where yet 1177 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:01,680 Speaker 1: where you can say they're winning that phase of the 1178 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:04,120 Speaker 1: football game. They gotta start doing because we can't let 1179 01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 1: Tom you know, have a short field like like he's 1180 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 1: gonna take advantage of everything we do. Any type of 1181 01:01:08,520 --> 01:01:11,120 Speaker 1: mistake we make out there, he's gonna take advantage of it. 1182 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 1: So special teams comes into play, we we gotta pin 1183 01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 1: them deep, we gotta pin them, make them go the 1184 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:17,400 Speaker 1: long way, make them do it the hard way. And 1185 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:19,440 Speaker 1: that's when speaking of that, we can't give up the 1186 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 1: big play. I mean, we know they got big play 1187 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,439 Speaker 1: potential all over the field, god Win Evans, Antonio Brown, 1188 01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:27,400 Speaker 1: the two tight ends. They got big play potential all 1189 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:29,480 Speaker 1: over the field. But we've done a great job so 1190 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:32,400 Speaker 1: far this this preseason. Defensively, Dan Quinn has done a 1191 01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 1: great job of not having any busted coverages. These guys 1192 01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:38,240 Speaker 1: are communicating well, they're limiting the big plays if if 1193 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:40,200 Speaker 1: it is a big place, a contested catching was a 1194 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:42,080 Speaker 1: hard one. I can live with that in my secondary. 1195 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:44,240 Speaker 1: But we gotta limit the big play against these guys 1196 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:45,920 Speaker 1: in the yak if we even standing a chance against 1197 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,280 Speaker 1: his Tampa Bay team. Speaking of special teams, doing the 1198 01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 1: running back we just picked up is a core special 1199 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,760 Speaker 1: teams play. He's been making some plays on special teams 1200 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:57,360 Speaker 1: throughout his career. So shout out to them taking this serious. 1201 01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:00,200 Speaker 1: But taking this serious, you pay CJ. Now you bring 1202 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 1: in another guy who who's known for playing special teams. 1203 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:05,000 Speaker 1: So I think Neui, I think they're taking it serious 1204 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:06,360 Speaker 1: and they seeing that it's gonna be a big part 1205 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 1: of our game. They brought back wellin't Well Thompson on 1206 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 1: the practice squad, and he has an opportunity to, you know, 1207 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: maybe come up and come down or whatever it may be, 1208 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:14,800 Speaker 1: so you can help out on teams as well. Shout 1209 01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:19,440 Speaker 1: out and Jake McQuaid. Yeah, Jack McQuaid, the long snappers 1210 01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 1: is first year.

So to me, 1213 01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:34,560 Speaker 1: I'm putting pressure on Bones to make sure his unit 1214 01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 1: comes out and they win that phase of the game 1215 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 1: against Tampa Bay and all year long, Cowboys special teams 1216 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 1: needs to win.

In twenty nineteen, the Cowboys had 1233 01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:44,280 Speaker 1: the eleventh ranked defense. According to producer Chris Beans two thousand, 1234 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, should say twenty nineteen, twenty nineteen eleven. That 1235 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,960 Speaker 1: was man Nellie's last year. Yeah, I wonder what we 1236 01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 1: were ranked in fourteen when we made the playoffs.
