Uh, you know, it's 49 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: it's one of these deals. And like I like to say, 50 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: everybody likes to put something in a big box and 51 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: put a bow on top without looking inside the box 52 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: to see what you got. And you know, I'm watching 53 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: the game last night, and all I kept seeing and 54 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: hearing was all the injuries San Francisco had, the injuries 55 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 1: Detroit had. 56 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 2: I felt sorry for the guy, and I don't. 57 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: See that when they do the Cowboys games. Nope, you 58 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: know so what that you lost six Pro bowlers and 59 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: one more that didn't go on injured reserve. That's what 60 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Yeah and so, yeah, it's part of the 61 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: story of this season that can't be ignored. 62 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 5: So and he did point that out. What do you 63 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 5: have to have different? 64 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: Well, I got to have my Pro Bowl quarterback on 65 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: the field, and I've got to have an offensive line. 66 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 5: He goes. 67 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: If I made a mistake. I assumed that we could 68 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: put young guys in on the offensive line and it 69 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: would just take off and be as good as ever. 70 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: And he goes, and there were growing pains there. He goes, 71 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: I got to have my defensive ends that I lost 72 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: all season long, And oh what about the cornerbacks and 73 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: the linebackers and so and now the wide receiver, by 74 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: the way, and you had the other wide receiver out. 75 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 4: For four weeks. 76 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: No Cooks was out seven seven games at. 77 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 3: Least from late September until November, right. 78 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: From the first Giants game to Yeah, and my other 79 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl corner missed the first ten games of the season, 80 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: so some of that matters, And I think it has 81 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: to go into his evaluation of Mike McCarthy. 82 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 3: By the way, that was also the toughest stretch of 83 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 3: the season, when Michael Parsons was. 84 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: Out right those four games, and. 85 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,799 Speaker 3: Then leading up to last week's game, when after Micah 86 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 3: had returned, this team was leading the league in sacks 87 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 3: since his return, leading the league in takeaways. 88 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, and pressures too, by the way. 89 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 4: And the schedule got easier during this stretch too, right, 90 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 4: And it did. 91 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: But all you gotta do even just look at the 92 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 3: quarterback position alone and see which teams have qualified for 93 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 3: the postseason, which we went through this last week. And 94 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 3: I'll quickly go through it here. Eagles, Commanders, they both 95 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 3: have their quarterbacks. I'm assuming hurts his back whatever, and 96 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 3: he will be Lions, Vikings Packers have their quarterbacks. 97 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: And stop right there. Vikings had a sugar plum Land 98 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: in their lap. They had no idea Sam Darnold was. 99 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 3: Going to do what he who used to be Baker 100 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 3: Mayfield's teammate in Carolina, and which gets me to Tampa 101 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 3: Bay has their quarterback, Baker Mayfield, and the Rams clinched 102 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 3: their division and they've got their quarterback, Matthew Stafford. 103 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 4: And we could do the same process. 104 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 3: And the AFC as well, where the Bills have their quarterback, 105 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:44,799 Speaker 3: the Ravens, the Steelers, the Bengals are still threatening because because. 106 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 4: They because they have their quarterback. 107 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,359 Speaker 3: The Texans have their quarterback, are limping to the finish line. 108 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 4: And oh, by the way, the Chiefs, the Chargers, and 109 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: the Broncos all have their starting quarterbacks. So there you go. 110 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: And that's the story of twenty twenty four. 111 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,239 Speaker 3: It might be the story of every season in the NFL. 112 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 3: And got your starting quarterback, you are still have a shot. 113 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 3: Going back to Jeff Hostetler and the Giants Everson where 114 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 3: we saved Jeff. 115 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 4: Let's there you go. 116 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 6: We were special. We were special, and we're like Philly, 117 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 6: we don't need. 118 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: And for those that want to point point out that, 119 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: you know, these other teams with the Saquon Barkley over 120 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: two thousand yards Derrick Henry, but guess what, they had 121 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: special quarterbacks to play with them. And that factored into 122 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: their effectiveness. 123 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 6: You've got that guy Cook is running right but off 124 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 6: of there and I'll come and. 125 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,679 Speaker 2: It's definitely because he's playing off. 126 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: Of his quarterback, because Josh Allen can run his butt. 127 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 3: The offensive line has something to do with it, Yes, absolutely, 128 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 3: which gets back to what Jerry apparently said about the 129 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 3: offensive line if he made one mistake, that is I 130 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 3: think pretty lairing HiT's depending on the young guys. 131 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 5: Just assuming that it was going to be. 132 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 3: But at some point, when you've got two future Hall 133 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 3: of famers who are in the last part of their career, 134 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 3: Tyron Smith and Zach Martin, You're going to have to 135 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: make that transition at some point, right, and this happens 136 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: to be the point where that was happening. 137 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: And despite that, they had a running back run for 138 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: a thousand yards that had never been given that chance. 139 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: And you have to go back to twenty I did 140 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: this twenty nineteen last time the Cowboys had somebody rush 141 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: for as much as Rico Dado has, because while Pollard 142 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: did it, Rico's got like a yard or two more 143 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: than he ever had in his thousand yards situations. 144 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 5: So you have to go back to z. 145 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 3: Which but having said that, on the other side on Sunday, 146 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: they were celebrating running back who. 147 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: By the way, but he had a running quarterback. 148 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 3: But more importantly than the running quarterback is they have 149 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 3: an offensive line that is right up there with the Lions, 150 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 3: the best in football. 151 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 6: So the way I always look at it is the 152 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 6: defense always gives them another chance. Soarkley has always had 153 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 6: a defense to give him the ball so he can 154 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 6: run for more yards. 155 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: Who was Dickerson quarterback that year? 156 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 6: Little shorting uh from from Canada? 157 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 4: The quarterback, short quarterback. 158 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 2: You'll come up. 159 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 6: Okay, I'm gonna do that. 160 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 4: Short quarterback. 161 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 3: So it was handed to three Rams. I'm not going 162 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 3: to put the year in or anything. It's just short quarterback. 163 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 3: I misspelled Canada. 164 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: But Rams. 165 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 3: Let's see if it comes up here list of Rams 166 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 3: starting quarterbacks. 167 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: There it'll be Doug Flutie or something. 168 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 4: Short quarterback.

Nothing better than Jacksonville State. 216 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: Oh, we were talking about the benefits of having your 217 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: starting quarterback on the field playing well for the playoffs. 218 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: So so last night didn't change anything, right. 219 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 4: That meaningless Detroit. 220 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: It was a meaningless game, right, except they knew going 221 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: in it was me except maybe the Cowboys won't have 222 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: to play San Francisco decks. 223 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, so there was meeting because there's a third 224 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 4: place schedule. 225 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: Yeah there last right now Arizona's ahead of them. 226 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, but now the Rams don't have to win in 227 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 3: the season finale. 228 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 4: So San Francisco wins that. 229 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: San Francisco has to play Arizona. 230 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 4: Oh okay, they play each other. 231 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:26,239 Speaker 3: Oh they played for the Cowboys. 232 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 2: I'm sure that's what's on their minds. 233 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: Well, the tie breaker is going to come down to, 234 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: like I don't know what tie breaker is going to. 235 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 4: Be, and we don't, but one way or the other. 236 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 3: The Cowboys are going to play or San Francisco next season. 237 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 2: It's a shame that this season. 238 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 6: I feel very good about our improvement, even though it 239 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 6: was over teams that were kind of martin them, you know, 240 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 6: some teams. The Tampa Bay went to me was the 241 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 6: best win of the season. We really thought that that 242 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 6: had put us at least on a trend upward, which 243 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 6: I still think it's you know, we we can't ignore 244 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 6: our streak that we had. But at the same time, 245 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 6: I'm pretty proud of where we were versus. 246 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,319 Speaker 2: Where we ended up. I just have to say that. 247 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 6: I mean, even though we did lose badly to teams 248 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 6: that were very good doing that stretch, but we won 249 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 6: against teams that were not so good. We won the 250 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 6: games we were supposed to win, and it didn't seem 251 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 6: as if we could do that when we first started 252 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 6: having these calamities. 253 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 3: Okay, so let's don't put a name on just in 254 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 3: a general sense, if you were the owner slash general 255 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 3: manager of a football team. 256 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: A football team, a football. 257 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: Not this football team, a football team, and what happened 258 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 3: this season, including the injuries and what you just said. 259 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 4: The third to last. 260 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: Game of the season, probably the best game they played 261 00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 3: all year. Coming off all that, how would you handle 262 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 3: things going forward in terms of the coaching staff. 263 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 6: As far as the coaching staff is concerned, I think 264 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 6: I would keep them intact and simply because you're not 265 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 6: gonna find anyone. First of all, I always talk about 266 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 6: the elephant in the room, and that would be Jerry. 267 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 6: You've got to find coaches that can deal with the 268 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 6: general manager and owner that Jerry is. But at the 269 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 6: same time, you have to realize you're gonna have a 270 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 6: lot of work to do. If you're changing the entire 271 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 6: coaching staff. You got a lot of work you put 272 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 6: in a whole new system. You're gonna have to change 273 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 6: your If we be the whole new staff next year 274 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 6: is not gonna be good because it's going to be 275 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 6: an adjustment period. If we keep this staff and we 276 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 6: continue with the trend that we were on, putting in 277 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 6: some pieces, make sure everyone stays healthy. 278 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 2: I still don't. 279 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 6: See us as a super Bowl team, but I see 280 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 6: us as a playoff team that could go deep. 281 00:14:58,560 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 2: That's just my opinion. 282 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: And and and and that's the other elephant in the room. 283 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: And I heard the question today or maybe it wasn't 284 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: to him when it was said, it's like, what do 285 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: they have to do to win a super Bowl next year? 286 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: I'm going how about playoffs? How about a division title? 287 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: How about just winning one first round game? Yeah, it's 288 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: not just look at the super Bowl. 289 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 6: Well that's what That's why we picked the did we 290 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 6: pick a We picked eighteen? We didn't pick the Cowboy 291 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 6: because they only talked to us that way. So the 292 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 6: only way we are seen it's super Bowl up bust 293 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 6: every year. Now, that's the optimism you have from every team, 294 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 6: but everyone believes when Jerry Jones says it, it's just 295 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 6: a difference. It's just a difference. 296 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: So, speaking of making transitions like that, Mike Zimmer talked 297 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: about it yesterday and he said one of his regrets 298 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: was he didn't do what he wanted to do defensively 299 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: from the start because he thought he needed to blend 300 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: in on what they had done the year before. 301 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 3: And when we come back here on mix shots, let's 302 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 3: talk about that and more. 303 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 4: Mike Zimmer. 304 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 6: Star Sports Tours is the only official fan travel partner 305 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 6: of the Dallas Cowboys, offering exclusive game weekend travel packages 306 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 6: with pregame sideline access and photo ops with current players, 307 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 6: cheerleaders and Cowboy legends.

Guy won it 362 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: last year? 363 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 5: Maybe I forgot. 364 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 2: The international guy won it? Was an international fan of 365 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:23,959 Speaker 2: the year. 366 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: Was the Cowboy guy that he actually got to do 367 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: the pick on the NFL Draft. 368 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 5: That's right. 369 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 6: I hate here in the NFL, honest thing, because that's 370 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 6: where we had to go after you found out you 371 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 6: didn't become a Hall of Famer. So they come to 372 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 6: you boom, hey, you didn't make it, bough And so 373 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 6: we went to downstairs in ten minutes and I'm like, 374 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 6: it's gonna be a wow. 375 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 2: Okay, we got tequila here. 376 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 3: So as we transitioned to Mike Zimmer before Mickey talks 377 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 3: about what he teased just a moment ago, Mike Zimmer 378 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 3: was asked about Darren Woodson as well, and Darren Woodson 379 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 3: is for the third straight year a finalist. 380 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 4: For the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It was announced 381 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 4: over the weekend. 382 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: I just wrote eight paragraphs on that, setting up what 383 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: Zim had to say. 384 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 3: So would you like to paraphrase what he had to 385 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 3: say there or would you like to go on to. 386 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 5: He said it? 387 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: I think the first thing he said it it it 388 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: he should have been in a long time ago, basically, 389 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: and then talked about all the things he could do. 390 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 1: And my point now is, you know they list him 391 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: as a safety. He was a defensive player. He played safety, 392 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: he played corner, he played linebacker, and I was I'll 393 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: never let him off specialties. Unbelievable every year it's like, 394 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah. And then he found himself at least 395 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 1: the outside guy on kickoff. 396 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 4: Coverage and still like the. 397 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 5: Cowboys, and. 398 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: He led the Cowboys franchise in career tackles. Think about 399 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 1: the defensive guys in this franchise that are in the 400 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. He's got more tackles than them all. 401 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: So anyway, okay, now my soapbox already. 402 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, so now to what And this was 403 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 3: the last availability of the twenty twenty four season for 404 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 3: the coordinators with the media yesterday, and Mike Zimmer was 405 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 3: very good and among the things he talked about was what. 406 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 4: You were getting to a moment? 407 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 2: YEAHO. 408 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: And his point was that when he got here, he 409 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: didn't think he should have reinvented the wheel and just 410 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: bring in everything he wanted to do. He felt like, okay, 411 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: this defense was pretty good the last couple of years, 412 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 1: that let's use a little bit of what I want 413 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: to do and keep some of the stuff they were 414 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: doing sort of. 415 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 5: I think that was the philosophy. 416 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: If you think about when McCarthy got here with the 417 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: offic it was like he didn't change the whole thing 418 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: to be his offense. He let Kellen Moore do what 419 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: they've been doing that had been successful or what dak knew. 420 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: So yeah, he said that, you know, he said, I 421 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: didn't come in, I wasn't stubborn, I wasn't a hard head. 422 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 1: I probably wasn't as hard on guys as I should 423 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: have been to start, and he goes, and as the 424 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: season went along, he goes. I got to congratulate the 425 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: players because we made somewhat of a transition and started 426 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: doing things I wanted, yes, And so I thought that 427 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: that was very revealing on his thoughts on. 428 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,959 Speaker 6: I always thought that, well, I have been thinking that 429 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 6: Michael Parsons has a lot to do with this. We 430 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 6: depend a lot on it, and we criticized him a 431 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 6: lot when the defense is not playing well because he 432 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 6: is out. He's our guy, and there are times when 433 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 6: he was being exposed. I don't know what happened while 434 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 6: he was injured, but it seems as if someone has 435 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 6: given him a different mindset on how to set the edge, 436 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 6: which is one of the plays that have been killing 437 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 6: us all doing. You know, we've never been able to 438 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 6: set the edge and running defense. That has changed as 439 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 6: you see how other teams play it. We were watching 440 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 6: other teams play it well on how they set the edge, 441 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,400 Speaker 6: and we were wondering, why can't we do that? Well, 442 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 6: we started doing that, and now our defense is playing better. 443 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 6: And I don't know what they said to Michael during 444 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 6: that time. But to me, he's been the catalyst as 445 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,959 Speaker 6: to how we are setting the edge because he's the 446 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 6: one that is playing differently now when it comes to 447 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 6: those particular plays. 448 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: And the other part of it was and I remember 449 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: talking to him in the offseason about his plans for Micah, 450 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: and his plans were that, yeah, you know, third down. 451 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 4: Rushing the quarterback. 452 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna try to convince him he's gonna play 453 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 1: a little more linebacker. Right well, that was fining good 454 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: until Sam Williams went down, and that was finding good 455 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 1: until DeMarcus Lawrence went down, and that was finding good 456 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: until Marshawn Neeland went down. 457 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 5: So u and then he goes down. 458 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:28,679 Speaker 1: But the idea was to make him a versatile defensive player, 459 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: so teams didn't know that he's starting off right there. 460 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 5: I'm gonna put him at linebacker and you don't know 461 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 5: what he's going to do. 462 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 6: So right now, he's playing like t J. Watts basically, 463 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 6: that's what he's saying. 464 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 2: And you don't want that. You want him to play. 465 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a stand up defensive end. 466 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 2: You want to be more Fred Wanner and. 467 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: I mean, if you watch event what Philadelphia was doing. 468 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: Oh my lord, they had two three guys taking him 469 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 1: on and nobody else took advantage in that game, and 470 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: that's what they needed. 471 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 2: I thought. 472 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 6: I think the way they're playing defense now, and I 473 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 6: know they had a tough game against Philly, I'm not 474 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 6: going to judge them on the Philly game. I'm gonna 475 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 6: judge them on what I saw in Tampa and leading 476 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 6: up to Tampa, because you know, the Philadelphia game is 477 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 6: what it is. I think our defense is just below 478 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 6: what we were last year, and I think that's a 479 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 6: good thing when you're talking about the transition that they made, 480 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 6: and especially coming off those first say eight games that 481 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,719 Speaker 6: we played, to see them improve with the personnel that 482 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 6: they have. I got to give him some love. I 483 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 6: have to give him some love because they have kept 484 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 6: us in games. They are active, and half the time 485 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 6: you don't even know who these guys are. And that's 486 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 6: the good thing about it. He's playing with guys who 487 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 6: don't have nearly the talent. And I'm talking about coach Zimmer. 488 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 6: He's playing guys with not near the talent from the 489 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 6: ones that we lost. 490 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: Speaking of not knowing the guys games, I gotta find it. 491 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 5: Talk about something. Oh, I think it. I can't even believe. 492 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 2: So in. 493 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: Two thousand, when the Cowboys played the final game of 494 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: the season at Tennessee, Tennessee had a. 495 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 5: Whole lot to play for. 496 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: The Cowboys were on their way to finishing five and eleven. 497 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: And this is a little off track. 498 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 4: But it may custom that. 499 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: It made me think because the question now this week 500 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: is is Trey Lance going to start the final game? 501 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 5: So it made me think. 502 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: Remember I brought up maybe it was yesterday, Reggie Colliers 503 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: started the last game eighty six. Well, starting the last 504 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: game in two thousand was Anthony Wright because Randall Cuddingham 505 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: said he had a strained hamstring. Well, it was cold, game, 506 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: didn't mean anything. Troy was already out with a concussion back, 507 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: so they started Anthony Wright and went back and I 508 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: just looked it up, read my story after the game 509 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: that I wrote, and they were playing all these backup 510 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: guys because everybody wanted to see the backup guys. And 511 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: I said, well, this is what you get when you 512 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: play backup guys. 513 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 5: Right. 514 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: One of the guys in that game, playing defensive tackle 515 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 1: was named Noel Scarlet. Scarlet defensive tackle that was the 516 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: only game I think he played all season long, right, 517 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: and that was the only game he played in his 518 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: NFL career. But that's what it got down to, right, 519 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 1: and replacement players and basically, no, you know what I said, 520 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: This was a preseason game in December, and that's what 521 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: And it was on Christmas night. Nobody wanted to play. 522 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: I'll guarantee you. 523 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 3: Uh, and Anthony Wright in that game. 524 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 5: And Anthony Wright, yeah, he's. 525 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 3: Because he was five out of twenty for thirty five 526 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 3: yards and two interceptions, and I think that four times. 527 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: He had two fumble So they had four turnovers. 528 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 3: Three carries nine yards and then Tennessee had a great defense. 529 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: Well yeah, they had a they were going to get 530 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: the number one seed I think that year in the AFC. 531 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 2: So yeah, so. 532 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, you want you want to see. 533 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 5: You Okay, you know now now this game. 534 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: There's a chance they may do it. I got I 535 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: had nothing against giving it a shot. But then two 536 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: things could take place. One, he plays so poorly that 537 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: you might. 538 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 2: You will go all those sink all the way there. 539 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: Right, But what if he plays well, it's a free 540 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: agent and somebody else goes, huh, well, maybe I'll pay 541 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: him five million dollars to be maybe my backup when 542 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 1: the Cowboys could be thinking, well, maybe you know, I 543 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: can sign them for my backup quarterback if he plays well. 544 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 1: But if he plays poorly, well, he's no more than 545 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: the third guy. 546 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 5: Once again, in a game that you. 547 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: Don't have all your receivers out there, maybe what if 548 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: Brendon Cooks doesn't play and you got Tolbert Brooks, Turpin 549 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: and Flinoy out there. 550 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 3: Well, if Brandon Cooks doesn't play, then those three receptions 551 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 3: will go to one other. 552 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 2: Those three. 553 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 5: And the two inters. 554 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 3: And that's nothing against Brandon Cooks because I think he's 555 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 3: rte fully cable doing more. 556 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: But that's all he's been here. They knew that's what 557 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: they had to cover. I think about having into double 558 00:29:55,480 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: and triple coverage there, absolutely all right, anyway. 559 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 3: All right, uh, let's get into more of what the 560 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 3: coordinators talked about yesterday.

You're talking earlier about Rico Dowdell going 609 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 3: over one thousand yards, and he's at what now, one 610 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 3: thousand seven? 611 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 5: I believe it is what I said. 612 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 4: I can't remember what you said. 613 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 2: He did say seven, okay. 614 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 4: One thousand. 615 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 3: Now he's you said, he's one short one yard, he's 616 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 3: one thousand. Tony Pollard in two thousand and two, twenty 617 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 3: twenty two had one thousand and seven yards. In twenty 618 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 3: twenty three he had one thousand and five yards, And 619 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 3: so Pollard, I mean, doubtell, is how far away from. 620 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: One yard being more than anybody since zek and twenty? 621 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 3: Kay? 622 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 4: So he's at one thousand and six or seven? 623 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 5: Seven? 624 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 2: Okay? 625 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 4: So he's tied with Pollard right now? 626 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 3: Yes, okay, which led me to look up what Pollard 627 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 3: has done. Of course, the decision the Cowboys had to 628 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 3: make after last season was whether or not to re 629 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 3: sign Tony Pollard in pre agency. He signed with Tennessee 630 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 3: three years, twenty four million dollars. And I just looked 631 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 3: up his numbers for this season, and Tony Pollard is 632 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 3: sitting at he played. He has played in fifteen games, 633 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 3: fifteen starts, one thousand and seventeen yards, very similar to 634 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 3: his numbers here with Dallas on two hundred and thirty 635 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 3: eight carries and five touchdowns. 636 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: And they've both played the same amount of games. Because 637 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 1: I think Rico missed that's. 638 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 3: Right, he missed one. Yeah, that's right. Mysterious illness. 639 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:39,760 Speaker 1: So everybody I remember that, Yeah right, everybody with didn't 640 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: like the committee? Raise your hand now because you got 641 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: a thousand yard Russier And. 642 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 3: How many yards per carry does Dad'll have? 643 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 4: Do you have his stats in front of you? 644 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 5: Yeah? 645 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 2: I just closed it. We never closed a subject here, right, 646 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 2: You know that, bough You know. 647 00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 3: That because out I mean, Pollard is at four point 648 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 3: three yards per tend Now it is apples and oranges 649 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 3: when you compare Tennessee. Does things freak those a certain way? 650 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 5: In the cow point seven? 651 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, yards are carried now he only has one rushing touchdown. 652 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 5: Pollard has seven. But they paid dearly for it, right. 653 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 3: Three years, three years, twenty four million is the total value. 654 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 5: So that average is eight million. 655 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 4: And eight million a year, and that was the going rate. 656 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 3: Basically, why did Derrick Henry get nine million a year 657 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 3: something like that in Tennessee? 658 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: And and and you know what, I finally looked up 659 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 1: Saquon and his was in that three year. 660 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 5: Thirty some whatever. 661 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: But the guarantees they've given him to reduce his cap 662 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 1: charge now the void year and I think the void 663 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: years like twenty twenty eight, twenty twenty nine, somewhere in 664 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: there is forty some million dollars. 665 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 4: They're going to pay the piper at some point at 666 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 4: some point. 667 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,359 Speaker 1: Now, Now, if it pays off then and you win, 668 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: you say, okay, you know, do like the Rams. So 669 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: what we had, you know season the next year, but 670 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 1: we won the Super Bowl. So and they did AJ 671 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: Brown's contract the same way too. By the way, Philadelphia, 672 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: there's going to be a huge payoff when he's done 673 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:30,720 Speaker 1: for the voided year. So, however, you want to do business, 674 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 1: if it works, as as Parcells said, if it works, 675 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: it's right. 676 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 5: Does it you're wrong? 677 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 3: And as we've talked about before and as far as 678 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 3: these quarterback contracts, the key thing on the Dak contract 679 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 3: where it has a bigger cap hit for this team 680 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 3: than other teams that have signed quarterbacks in that same 681 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 3: range that those quarterbacks on their second contract. Dak on 682 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:01,399 Speaker 3: his third contract, so you already had had money from 683 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:05,720 Speaker 3: the second contract built into these extended years on Deck's deal, 684 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 3: and so it's counting more against the cap than what 685 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,320 Speaker 3: a Jalen hurts in Philadelphia. 686 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: And he's another one at the end of that contract, 687 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: it's in the cap hit is astronomical. So they're hoping 688 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 1: they don't get there or he's been that. 689 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 3: Well, they'll be to a point we do with the 690 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 3: COT they'll be at a point where on his third contract, 691 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 3: they're going to be in the same salary cap situation 692 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:32,399 Speaker 3: the Cowboys are in right. 693 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,760 Speaker 1: Now, because no one's taken less, especially if you play well. 694 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: By the way, you know, we went over who the 695 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: Cowboys had to play this coming season. I went and 696 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 1: kind of looked everything up and did the records. So 697 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: they got to play ten games against teams with winning records, 698 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: and nine or ten of those games will be playoff 699 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: games against layoff teams this year. But if Arizona ends 700 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 1: up in third place in the in the West, their 701 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: strength of schedule will be zero point five four nine 702 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: winning percentage. 703 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 5: That would be the teams they have to. 704 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: Play, which is more than this year. Right now, it's 705 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,240 Speaker 1: at five oh eight. So it doesn't get any easier 706 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 1: getting the third place schedule because of the two divisions 707 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: they have to play. 708 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 3: And again, can you remind us NFC North NFC North Okay, 709 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 3: that features. 710 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: Three right play Soda Green Bay. 711 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 4: Three playoff Bounty Chicago. 712 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 1: So those those four teams right now are forty two 713 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: and twenty one, and then the AFC West Kansas City Chargers, Denver, 714 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: which all could be playoff teams, and then the Raiders 715 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: and they're thirty seven and twenty seven right now. 716 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 3: So what you're saying is, in all likely hood, the 717 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 3: winner of the NFC East next year will be a 718 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,800 Speaker 3: ten win team, nine ten win team because everyone everyone 719 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 3: has to play the same schedule virtually, right. 720 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 2: Uh. 721 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,399 Speaker 4: And so we know. 722 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 3: Philadelphia is not winning the NFC East next year, so Dallas, 723 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:27,439 Speaker 3: because no one ever repeats, no One last team, No, 724 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 3: we're talking twenty years, two thousand and four is the 725 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 3: last time we've had. 726 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 4: A WOW winner in the NFS. 727 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 5: That's good, it's amazing. 728 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 3: So all you got to do is get to ten 729 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 3: wins to win the NFC East next year, probably because 730 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 3: of the tough schedule ad and like it's the same 731 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 3: every year. 732 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: And then Philadelphia, what hap these guys, Well you got 733 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 1: to be awfully good to play that schedule, and that's 734 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: what happened to them this year too. 735 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 3: Do you think those teams will be just as good 736 00:39:58,520 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 3: next year as what they are this year? 737 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 4: Not all of them.
