I feel like I'm on DC right, that's right. 9 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: You're inside the s WBC podcast studio at the Star 10 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: in Frisco, and the Cowboys have just come off the 11 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: practice field their biggest work day of this week in 12 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: anticipation of a trip to Kansas City to take on 13 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 1: those resurgent Chiefs at three twenty five on Sunday afternoon. 14 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,199 Speaker 1: And Mickey can't wait to tell us what he saw 15 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: the practice field this afternoon. And I can tell you 16 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm very glad to be inside the FWBC podcast studio 17 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: because our little half hour out there watching practice was 18 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: pretty chilling. In the shade. Were in the shade, No, 19 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: we were in the sun. And it didn't make any 20 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: It didn't make any difference because that wind was blowing 21 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: pretty hard. So, uh, they've got they got a little 22 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: taste of maybe what Kansas City is going to be 23 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 1: because it was in the low fifties out there. When 24 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: it's sixty one. Now, well it wasn't sixty win you're 25 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: saying the wind chill way down there. Absolutely there's Kansas 26 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: City weather. There was no sixty one when we were 27 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: out there. I guarantee you you needed a jacket and 28 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: you needed a hat on two by the way. So 29 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: but they did decide to go outside. We were speculating 30 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: yesterday that perhaps they would take it indoors. But that's 31 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: the experience that Mike McCarthy has, having been on the 32 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: coaching staff with the Chiefs back in the nineties. He's 33 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: gonna be out in the elements. You know. I didn't 34 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: realize he was there six years. He started as a 35 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: quality control coach and then he became an offensive assistant. 36 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: So yeah, he spent six years there. So when he 37 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: tells you Arrowhead is noisy, it's noisy, right, Hemius, I'm 38 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: gonna talk like you guys, what was the auditory? Is 39 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: that auditory elements that they faced out there today, like 40 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: sound you know, noise, cloud noise. You know, at one 41 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: point they played they played some music, but I still didn't. 42 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: And you know what, when they play music out there 43 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: and it's real loud, you hear it twice because it 44 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 1: bounces off the building and it comes back at you. Right, 45 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: But that could be effective if I don't know that. 46 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: I heard usually when they're playing crowd noise, we can 47 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: hear through the wind, right, But I didn't really hear much. 48 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: Maybe it was and we just didn't. Maybe this is 49 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: not the day or special win. Was the winds blowing 50 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: like they're not blowing. That's Hurricane win And if they're 51 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: going to play it, today's to day to play it. 52 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: It's to day out there tomorrow, right, Yeah, And I 53 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: think there, I think there was, I think there, and 54 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: then they'll be Saturday when they go inside. Yeah. Then 55 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: Saturday they'll go inside and that's when they'll really turn 56 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: it up. So um, but yeah, Mike said, you know, 57 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: when they play in Minnesota, the decibels are one twenty 58 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: and he hears that when you go at Arrowhead it's 59 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: one forty decibel level, so noisy, hey at stadium. I 60 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: don't know where we hit, but we're pretty good. Yeah, 61 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: when the boys get going and the crowd gets behind them, 62 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: we can be pretty loud. Have we ever imagined it 63 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: at all? I don't know that they have. Yeah, I mean, 64 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: come on, it is with a mess. We need some decibel. Yeah, 65 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: come on, I like to. Zeke was trying to. They 66 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: kept asking Zeke. I think he got tired of the 67 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: question about the noise and and and they said, well, 68 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: what's it like? And he goes, well, let me tell 69 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: you what it's like. He goes, when you when you 70 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: gotta bend down and you can't hear the quarterback giving 71 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: you the call, that that's a problem because I gotta 72 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: know what I gotta do, right. It was pretty funny, 73 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: but he was getting irritated by the questions about that 74 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: and about how important this game is. I was asking 75 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: Bill about the show, the Mike McCarthy show. Indeed, all 76 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: the coach is not gonna tell you much, ain't telling 77 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: you mine gonna tell you much about just don't know 78 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: how to pull it out of him. You know, you 79 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: got you gotta ask piercing questions. But you gotta realize 80 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: to show it is coaches show, and it's whether he 81 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: or not he wants to reveal things. You gotta step 82 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: over the line, Bill, you gotta step on just just 83 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: just put a toe in there, man, but over the line. 84 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: See what happens. Take it from me, I stepped over? 85 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: How many times he stepped over the line? Well, so 86 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to wind up 87 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: in any New York that's a shot. Uh So, But 88 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: I can't Yeah, I can't tell you. I can tell 89 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 1: you from the practice that Tyrann Smith was out there. Okay, 90 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: he was in pads. He's probably going to be listed 91 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: as limited from what we could tell how much he 92 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: was participating in the uh positional drills, in the individual drills. Um. 93 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: Yesterday he didn't do any team So we'll see. But 94 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure they're going to list him as limited. Um 95 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: and I would imagine if he's limited, probably means he 96 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: didn't take all the snaps. Now I don't know, uh 97 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: and I imagine they got to have Terrence Steele ready 98 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: to go, right. It can't just assume, Um, so who's 99 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: the who's the who's the right defensive end for the Chiefs? 100 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: And well, where are they going? What are we looking 101 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: at it? See? I think they moved. They moved Chris 102 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: Jones inside defense Chris Jones. So that's uh, I don't 103 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: know how good that is unless he's over Zach Martin. 104 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: If he's over Zach Martin, I'm now they'll move him. 105 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: Leave the other white wasted time. And by the way, 106 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: judging from some of their um like three man drills 107 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: and whatever, um, it looks like they might have some 108 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: competition going on at that left guard spot. Okay, by 109 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: the way, so they mean the Chiefs, No, what is Mickey, 110 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm just saying I think that what you're saying competition 111 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 1: there with Whnor McGovern, Connor Williams. Keep an eye the 112 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: two Connors, the Battle of the Connors. So which is 113 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: their competition at the fullback position. Maybe they in the 114 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: jumbo pack. Maybe they bring up Nick Ralston. You never know, 115 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: he's not as big as those other guys. I would imagine. Uh, 116 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: They've got Chris Jones listed as their starting left defensive end, 117 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: but from what I've read that they've kind of moved 118 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: him inside. He's a he's a beast in there. Yeah. 119 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: The right defensive ends Frank Clark, Um Farmer, Seattle, Seahawk, 120 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: Right Michigan and they list. This is funny because he's been. 121 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: He's every time I hate a team. I'm thinking eighty 122 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: two was seventy two? He's been. I'm thinking Frank Clark. 123 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: Wasn't it like a Cowboys? Yes, Frank Clark receiver seventies, 124 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: wasn't it? No? No, I'm talking to his numbers? Is 125 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: he no? Not the year? Like? Oh no jersey number? 126 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: All right, show again, great player. And then the other 127 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: pass rusher is Melvin Ingram and they've not listed as 128 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: third team. That ain't right. He's been playing a lot. Uh. 129 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: Just is he impactful? Yes? Okay, yes he's playing well 130 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: he uh, let's look up, but he's going to look up. 131 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: How impactful he's been here? Well in the meantime, Well, 132 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 1: that's the stuff doesn't just pop? Right? That was really 133 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: good at that stuff? You take too long? Yeah, he's 134 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: it's done. You know what I'm saying. Well, vamp, while 135 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: you're looking, Oh, he only has tackle on each of 136 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: the last two games, so he caught you on that 137 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: one he had he being double team. He had twenty 138 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: one snaps last game and one tackle. Yeah, yes, okay, 139 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: oh right, But the guy you got to look out 140 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: for is Nick Bolton. No, I'm looking at it. What's 141 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: up with Nick? He leads the teams, the rookie out 142 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: of Missouri and Crisco lone star star. Now he only 143 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: had nineteen snaps last week. He gets the Raiders, well, 144 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: now is here done? What give me the scouting report? 145 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: The Raiders were so far behind, they were all I 146 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: saw wide and they took the middle linebacker off the field. 147 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: He leads the team with seventy five tackles, ten tackles 148 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: for losses. That ten tackles for losses. Pretty impressive there, Yes, 149 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: in ten games, that means he's got twice as many 150 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: tackles for losses. So now anybody else that that means 151 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: that ten games, ten tackles for loss So I mean 152 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: we reading co Football Reference, I mean you know, he 153 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: could have played a game that he did, can get 154 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: the tackle lost. It's just those are those are his numbers. Okay, 155 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 1: just checking modern Day. I gotta check you guys. As 156 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: much as I trust you guys, I still have to 157 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: check you whenever the stat is one per game to 158 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: make sure. Yeah, if we're doing the game by game 159 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: on it and it wasn't targets either, by the way, Yeah, 160 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: that's the other part. So here's why he has so 161 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: many tackles for losses. Okay, against Washington he had four. 162 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: The next week against the Giants. Wait, let me make 163 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: sure he had four tackles. No, no tackles for losses 164 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: against one team, that's Washington. Against Washington the next week 165 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: against Tennessee had five. That's what the that's what their 166 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: status sheet before you come in here putting this stuff 167 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: on the age. Okay, oh wait, wait the four four 168 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: the Giants. No, he had four against Tennessee. Tennessee for 169 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: five yards. Okay, all right, we want me to read them. 170 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: One against Cleveland, one against Baltimore, two against Buffalo, one 171 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: against Washington, four against Tennessee, and one against Las Vegas. 172 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: Still very so what's your point? So it's ten still 173 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: very tread, which we established off the four against the Titans. 174 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: What was going? Yeah, what's up with Derek you Derrick 175 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: Henry that game was playing? That he was playing? That game. 176 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: I looked it up because I was taken aback by 177 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 1: the four tackles for loss He only had eighty six 178 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: yards on twenty nine carries. I believe I'm confirming that 179 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: must have been one of those ye eighty six yards 180 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: twenty nine carries, so that is less than check out 181 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: this math, less than three yards of carry. There you go, 182 00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: that's easy and two point nine you can go. Now, 183 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: come on so much twenty nine times three twin lives 184 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: hose three that would be uh seventy eight seventy eighty seven, 185 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: and he had eighty six yards, Chris, That's how I 186 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: figured out it's less than three yards. Again, Chris Jones 187 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: has three sacks. Okay, but those three three tackles for losses. 188 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that is extremely impressive. Ten. He must have 189 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: known something and I'd like to know who the heck 190 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: he was going up against on those plays. Yeah, he 191 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: had four in that game against Tennessee. That's crazy. He's 192 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: fine final rookie. He's not gonna win Rookie of the year, 193 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: defensive rookie of the year, but he's a fine player 194 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: that maybe from the KFC. Okay, so he's he's very improved. 195 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: Who would you say is the most improved? He checked 196 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: his one? Yeah, hey man, yeah, Chris will cut me off. 197 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 1: Now we have time to get Chris will sit back there. 198 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 1: They're going into another subject. Most improved so far on 199 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: the team this year. Yeah, let's go defense in offense, 200 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: Let's go defense. Most improved from last year or last 201 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: year from last year? All right, from last year? I 202 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: got I mean, you got one of them. It's obvious. 203 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: Were really two obvious ones to me. But the third 204 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: is a little bit well, you know Diggs for sure. 205 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: Of course, from like eighty percent to twenty percent. You know, 206 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: as far as the percentage as far as up quarterbacks 207 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 1: versus him, that's a huge drop, by the way, even 208 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 1: though he's giving up big play. Still, you know a 209 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: few Michael Parsons, he wasn't your last year most improved. 210 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 1: He was improved because he didn't play last year. He 211 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: played no football last year. Oh that's true. I mean 212 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: with the Cowboys, be most improved from last year for 213 00:13:54,640 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 1: those that signed with the Cowboys. Did not narrows the 214 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: field down because there were so few who were on 215 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: the Cowboys last year and so many of them were hurt. 216 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: Come on, man, yeah, well I'm yeah, that's true. Anthony 217 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: Brown missed half the season, right now, that's a good one. 218 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: I didn't think of Anthony Brown that he's improved. That's 219 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: a good one. And of course that's an obvious more 220 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: by the way, he the other obvious one you had. Yeah, 221 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: and he's been on the did not think Anthony Brown, 222 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: which should also be obvious. So he has to miss 223 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: one more game. Uh oh, fucking defense. True. We need 224 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: to ready to get this shot. I was ready to get. 225 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: I was ready to get. It's not like we've set 226 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: a high high level. Okay, so this is pretty much 227 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: profit of course for us. Let's just be real. Let's 228 00:14:54,440 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: just be real. Layton Vanderish what very good, but he 229 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: was good less but he was hurt twice. Yeah, yeah, right, 230 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: And we have been sleeping on him. We have not 231 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: talked about him and stats. We'd have him talked about 232 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: his snaps, about how important he's been to not just 233 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: FoST down but third down success. I know the interesting 234 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: thing about him, and I don't have his snaps from 235 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: last year, but his snaps are down this year, and 236 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: I think it's been by design, not only with scheme 237 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: but also preserving him. Right. Yeah, he's fourth on the 238 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: team with forty seven tackles, Anthony Brown second with forty nine, 239 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: So he's one of the tackle leaders because the next 240 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: person is thirty one. You don't want to you don't 241 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: want to cornerback to be Wait, you got two cornerbacks 242 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: that are what fifth and six in tackling on the team? No, 243 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: Jamon Curse, not a corner but the safety kind of 244 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: slash line said, has fifty five curse we're here last 245 00:15:56,080 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: year improved and Anthony Brown has forty nine. M hm. 246 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: So that's a lot of tackles. Two of the of 247 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: the top five are cornerbacks. A lot of that means 248 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: they're a lot of completed passes and a lot of 249 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: deep running plays into the second day. Yeah, you don't 250 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: want to have to put your head in there like 251 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: that all the time. See the scary thing about the defense. 252 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: You got to go down to number nine to find 253 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: a defensive lineman with twenty tackles? Is it scary or 254 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: does that mean they've been rotating? That could be. That 255 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: could be because they're rotating them, but no one has 256 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: really you know stood out. Look number eleven with nineteen 257 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: tackles is still Jalen Smith. That is funny. I was sorry, 258 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: So wait, you know what you're saying, you want I 259 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: could I could say that this this defense is definitely 260 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: designed for the linebackers and the second day to make 261 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: some of the plays, you know, to make most of 262 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: the plays. It seems like the defensive ends, the defensive 263 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: lineman the mate for for harassment, clearing the way for 264 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: those linebackers, almost like the flex. Terrell Basham has nineteen 265 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: tackles and OsO Diggi Zoo has eighteen. All Right, how 266 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: about this, if we were going to look at I 267 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: should have made sure I had the numbers in front 268 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: of me before I brought it up. Snaps is what 269 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: you know I've got. I'm looking at snaps and I 270 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 1: need to go career snaps the snaps for vander esh 271 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: As opposed to his past seasons. All Right, this year 272 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: the last game, because the way the game played out, 273 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: he only had twenty snaps in the game against Atlanta. 274 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: The previous week he had fifty one against Denver, only 275 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: thirty three defensive snaps against Minnesota, twenty eight against New 276 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: England and thirty one against the Giants. That is markedly 277 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: down from what he has been in passion. So what 278 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: you're saying, tackles per snaps, he's pretty high, That's what 279 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: I'm saying. But exactly because if we're looking at curse Um, 280 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: he's played many more snaps he's played ninety one is 281 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: it ninety one? It's hard to read all the way across. 282 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: I think of the snaps. I'll give you an idea 283 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 1: last year, h Vander esh Had. I'm just going through 284 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: his game log last year. He had one, two, three, 285 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 1: four games with sixty or more snaps last year. Yeah, right, Well, yeah, 286 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: because they didn't they didn't play it the same way, 287 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: totally different. And I do think that there's probably part 288 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: of the mindset and putting him in and as they 289 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: put this team together with the acquisition of Kean u'neil 290 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: and what dan Quinn wants to do, part of it 291 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: is preserving him as well. And there was no Michael 292 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: Parsons last year, right, let's face it, right, but Jaylen 293 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: was playing those snaps last year? Was Jalen was not 294 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 1: coming off the field last year? Yeah, for some whatever reason. Yeah, 295 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: So all right, we continue with more. It's guided we're 296 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: gonna I guess we need to look at the offense, 297 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: the most improved on offense when we come back here 298 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 1: on mix shots.

That's an ugly past. Hey, hey, 341 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: anybody who atturned to practice, they did? Greg zerline is off. 342 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: COVID saw him kicking field goals. They'd had a field 343 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 1: goal session today and running backs coach Skip Pete back 344 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: Pete practice, the brother of Rodney Pete. He was out 345 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: for a week and missed the game with COVID. Skip Pete, 346 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: who in of course, in his second tour of duty 347 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: with the Cowboys as a running backs coach, also was 348 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 1: first under Wade Phillips and then Jason Garrett from over 349 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 1: seven to two thousand a twelve and then hired last 350 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: year on Mike McCarthy's staff. And uh, it's interesting because 351 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: he had been with the Rams by the way, he 352 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: had been with the Rams the last four seasons in 353 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: Chicago prior to that. The interesting one of the interesting 354 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: things that it's timely his him coming back this week 355 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: because he's going back to Kansas City. He went to 356 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: University of Kansas to school and his dad was a 357 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: long time scout Willie Pete for the Chiefs. I knew 358 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: there was something wrong with him. Kansas. He was an 359 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 1: all Big eight wide receiver for the Kansas Jayhawks coach Pete. Yes, 360 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: coach Pete was. And of course everyone knows also that 361 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: Skip's brother, Rodney was half the years he was at 362 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 1: Kansas nineteen eighty five. He was all all Big eight 363 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: wide receiver in nineteen eighty five. That's crazy with the Jayhawks. 364 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: Did not know that. Yep, Okay, here we go, here 365 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: we go. The connection between Skip Pete and Mike McCarthy. 366 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: What do you think it goes to? Maybe when Mike 367 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: was in Kansas City. Nope, you're going prior to that. 368 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: I just noticed it just on his bio right here. 369 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: It just occurred to me. First job Skipped Pete had 370 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: was as a graduate assistant at the University of Pittsburghers 371 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty eight eighty nine, and he was a wide 372 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: receiver's coach at pitt in ninety before he became the 373 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: running backs coach there ninety two. And that would have 374 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: been the time frame that Mike mccarthurs a Pitt before 375 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: he went to the Kingsas So, you're in Kansas and 376 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: you're all big eight wide receiver wide receiver, and you 377 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: don't get a shot in the league. You're at Kansas, 378 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 1: but he's all big eight. But he's at Kansas. But 379 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 1: to be all big eight at Kansas at that time, 380 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: that's a good segue into Dorance Armstrong and there you go, 381 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: you all big twelve as at Kansas. And look what 382 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: he's doing now you think he had at Kansas? Or 383 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: points per game? I should say how many catches? No? 384 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: No points per game? Oh, you're talking about basketball. I'm sorry. Football, 385 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Yeah, we're talking football. But this show is 386 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: when Chris Joe. Okay, thank you, Chris, Thank you Chris. 387 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: This is a basketball so so sorry, Chris, it's so sad. 388 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: I was like, man, we got it.

Person is like out, 393 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: I got it outside, I got it, but I was 394 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 1: gonna let leave you hanging out. Appreciate that. I really 395 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: appreciate that. Don't you get something to do? Chris ye 396 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: on the show? On the show, all right, back on 397 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: track better talent, find three other people and so the 398 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: Cowboys had one, two, three, four or five six injury 399 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 1: report yesterday. Okay, Tyrant Smith was limited and everybody else 400 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: was full. And Mike McCarthy was asked, so did full 401 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: mean full because you had a short practice and you 402 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: didn't have pads on, And Mike McCarthy said, full means full. 403 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: So I'm going to ask you again full. What did 404 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: d Law look like? He's still rehabbing and looks great, 405 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: looks great. And Randy Gregory was least stepping on the 406 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: chords today, so that might be a step in the 407 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: right direction. But do you want to step on the 408 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:31,360 Speaker 1: chords or are you stepping with the stepping on the chords? Yeah, 409 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: you had the chords on and he was stepping along 410 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: with them. No, that's not how it goes. What do 411 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: you mean You're not talking about the chords that you 412 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: high stepped through the resistant chords, the resistance chords, not 413 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: you don't step on. Stepping along with the cord is 414 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: not what you say. I mean. I'm just saying I 415 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: think I'm just gonna walk. I didn't know we were 416 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: English class man. We're supposed to be going to our 417 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:07,679 Speaker 1: offensive most improved player. That's okay, somebody got keep Let 418 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: me give you, let me give you the Chiefs injury report. 419 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: You're talking about full practices. Everybody on their list at 420 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: a full practice except Lucas Niang, the tackle out of TCU, 421 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: who did not practice due to his rib injury, and 422 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: Lugarius Sneed, a safety was limited with a knee injury. 423 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: Is your daughter? No? Okay, well, right now you're looking 424 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: at the Chiefs China. You know we're playing them just 425 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: as there, you know, hitting their stride three in a row. 426 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: So this is gonna be a real good test for 427 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: both of us, not just the Cowboys, but the Chiefs 428 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 1: are gonna see. We're gonna see what they're all about. Actually, 429 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 1: Legarius Sneed does play quite a bit on defense. Okay, 430 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: but they stepped up defensively because they only gave up 431 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: seventeen to the Giants, seven to the Packers, and fourteen 432 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: to the Reader. Yes, say you know you look at them. 433 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: Their first five games, the Chiefs average giving up over 434 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: thirty two points a game, and their last five games 435 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: they've averaged giving up around fifteen points per game. So 436 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: what's up with the twenty seventh of the Titans and 437 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: the only one that they lost in those five games, 438 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: the last five. Don't they have the badger on their team. 439 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: Funny badger, that's right, Tyron Matthew. Who you think he's 440 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: gonna match up with? How do you think he wanted 441 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: to be safe? I know, but one of those he 442 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: is one of those guys. He's kind of like Parsons. 443 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: You can line them up almost anywhere in the secondary. 444 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: And as much as I saw Antonio Brown, you know, 445 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: toast him in the Super Bowl, this guy is a 446 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: very impactful player, whether he's blitzing or whether he is 447 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: getting in the passing lanes. And that kind of makes 448 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: me nervous because when the Cowboys would do one thing, 449 00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: we kind of start off, you know, like chev chevchev sometimes, 450 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: you know, we come out with the same old thing. 451 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna throw this this slap val, We're gonna you know, 452 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: take the slot man, throw into the out. You know, 453 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna run him on the corner of the outside corner. 454 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: Back off. And every once in a while you'll catch 455 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: someone cheating the defense and they start to play the 456 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: play and not play their defensive call. We saw that 457 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: a couple of times in the game. It could have 458 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: happened to us in the Falcons game. So I think 459 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: we need to be careful starting off. I think Matthews 460 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: is one of those guys. He's going to try his 461 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: best to play the play because as much as we 462 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: are very creative offensively, you know, we're kind of basic 463 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: when it comes to our short passing game. So you 464 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: answered your own question, you said, who does he match 465 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: up against? He doesn't match up. He freelances, and you're right, 466 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: and that's what makes him dangerous because you never know 467 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: where he's gonna be or what he's gonna do, what 468 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: he's keying on. Sort of like um oh, I forgot 469 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: his name safety from the picture the Steelers that Patrick. Yeah, 470 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: but he's out on COVID so but he still he 471 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: still he still does what he does. Bill when will 472 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: When Purcells was asked about Paulo Malo, he said, yeah, 473 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: no one, no one knows what he does because he 474 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: doesn't know what he's gonna do. And that's what makes 475 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: him dangerous because you can't plan for that. And that's 476 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: what he is. Extremely unpredictable. Uh, he's blockable. You can 477 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: beat him. That is not the point. The point is 478 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: the play is not the places that he doesn't make, 479 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: it's the ones that he makes can really kill you offensively. 480 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: And then but and by the way, the honey Badger, 481 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: that part of him is dead. He's tying Matthew now. Yeah. Yeah, 482 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: but he still plays. I think his attitude is state 483 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: still plays. Yeah, he still plays like that. I don't 484 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: know why he's dissing that. He's he's that he still 485 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: isn't need that part of his life. Well, yeah, that 486 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 1: got himself straightened down. Yeah, he's still honey badger to meat, 487 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: which is a compliment as far as I'm concerned. Third 488 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: round pick out of LSU bad Low. Somebody was third 489 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: round because of the money badger quote unquote baggage. Yeah. 490 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 1: The Cowboy. Uh he played fullback for the Cowboys for 491 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: one year he was in Houston. The Cowboys traded for him. 492 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: Uh it like nineteen ninety one. Um, gosh, I can't believe. 493 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: I can't think of his name anyway, Alonzo Heisman, Yes, 494 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: thank you. Anyway, he's a scout now. Yeah, and he 495 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: was pretty good, was really good. That was good. And 496 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: I see him all the time because he's always round. Yeah, 497 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: he comes to the Cowboy games and I think scouting 498 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: and anyway, so his when Honey Badger came to the 499 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl that year and he hadn't played, remember he 500 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: got kicked off LSU. And we had gotten there and 501 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: we went to this place where a lot of the 502 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: coaches and scouts hang out to watch the Sunday afternoon game. 503 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: And Honey Badger comes walking in and he's got on 504 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 1: a big old floppy hat. He's got baggy pants with 505 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: this big old sweatshirt and sunglasses on right, And I'm 506 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: looking and I'm going, you walked into this place with 507 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: all these scouts and looking like that, And so next 508 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: thing we knew he went in the back and then 509 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: Alonso came walking back. He recognized me and he sat 510 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: down with I said, so, did you get to talk 511 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: to the Honey Badger? He said, I told that young 512 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: man that the Honey Badger is dead. That you need 513 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: to come in here like this is a job interview 514 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: for you. And there's a bunch of scouts in here. 515 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: There's some personnel from the front offices in here, from teams. 516 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: You cannot come in here dressed like that, he said, 517 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: I dressed them down there. You go, Yeah, and it 518 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: was probably the best advice. Yeah, you know, I remember 519 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: Matthew at the Combine that year. It just workout at 520 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: the combine. I went, whoa look at I mean, it 521 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: was the workout, the DB's workout, and just his ball 522 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: skills and everything. I went, wow, it's kind of explosive too. Yeah. 523 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: But but you could just see the natural. It was 524 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: little wonder that he had so many takeaways, whether it's 525 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: on fumble recoveries or interceptions or whatever in college. When 526 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: you just saw that one little five minute workout at 527 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: the combine and there he was easily should have been 528 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: a top ten pick. And by the way, I just 529 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: saw a headline in the Kansas City paper saying Chiefs 530 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: want to resign Matthew. So he must be this is 531 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: his last year of his contract and he'll be a 532 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: free agent next year. He's getting up in age now, 533 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: isn't he. He went what year did he come into 534 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: the league? Uh? I don't have it written down here. Um, 535 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: you know. And the other thing on him, you know 536 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: how I got to Arizona. Why why Arizona even took 537 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: the quote unquote risk of taking him in the third 538 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 1: round is because of his relationship with Patrick Peterson and 539 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: Patrick Peterson's dad had a big impact on taking him 540 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 1: under his wing, getting him straightened out before coming into 541 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: the NFL's twenty nine So and by the way, he 542 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: went to a very good place because of who his 543 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: coach was at Arizona, which would have been Todd Boles. Yeah, 544 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 1: absolutely Todd and knows how to take care defensive backs. Yeah, 545 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: he knows what's going on. That's right. God, that was 546 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,240 Speaker 1: nine years ago. We saw him at the senior time Flies. 547 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 1: When you're thought that segment, we didn't. Yeah, this most 548 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: improved off. We're going to talk most improved offensive player 549 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: in the next segment when mix shots continues. In a moment, 550 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: I wonder if Chris Beam is still around. No, he left, 551 00:34:55,360 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: He's done with us, Honey, big news scarre Are you okay? Oh? 552 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: I'm not Gary anymore.

That is no doubt 613 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: he was trying to do because he knew they weren't 614 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 1: They weren't getting anywhere, so he was running harder, taking 615 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 1: more blows.

It's like 619 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: when you say when you say improved, that means somebody 620 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 1: wasn't very good and now all of a sudden they're good. 621 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: He's been good. He had picked shels, so you know 622 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:24,879 Speaker 1: he was good last year. That was a coming out. 623 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: He think he's taken it to another level. I do 624 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 1: think that, Yes, I think he is now be honest, 625 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: was good in college, but he wasn't in college last year. 626 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: So you think has played better. Yes, I think from 627 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 1: a center standpoint, the snaps have been I think better. Um, 628 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: I'm still fussing about my pick to click. Y'all didn't 629 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: get me no love when I picked him. You laughed 630 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: at his performance. When did you pick him? Like five 631 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: weeks ago or something? Yeah, five weeks I still want 632 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: my pops many y'all didn't even pay attended to it. 633 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: So we don't come into an agreement here.

It's kind of hard to 637 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: improve after that catch he made against Minnesota, Yeah, try, Yeah, 638 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: he kind of came out and showed what he was worth. 639 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: Yet I could, I could, You could argue the point. 640 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: I could give you love, but it's a tough one. 641 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush. There you go, my head a little bit. 642 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: And here's the deal. This offense, this offense is doing. 643 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 1: This offense is doing what Yeah, he didn't have anything defense, right, 644 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: The offense is doing what it shoot it should do. Right. 645 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: They were good, They would have been good last year. Yeah, 646 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 1: they were good last year. For five games they were 647 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 1: averaging thirty points a game. Problem was the defense was 648 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 1: given up thirty six. All right, so han't said that 649 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 1: the first five Mister consistency, Who's who's the most consistent. 650 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: Then that's a good question. Most consistent, most consistent player 651 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: of defense, special team. Yeah, Zack Martin, it's not bad. 652 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 1: And then and then the Maury Cooper, Yeah, there you go, 653 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 1: mister steady. Not spectacular last year, but last year, what 654 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 1: eight plus catches? Nine he had a career high from 655 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 1: how many different quarterbacks for four different That is amazing. 656 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: That really, That's why I've always said love CD. I 657 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,320 Speaker 1: love all the guys on the offense especially, but Cooper 658 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: to me the most. I guess it's because he's so understated. Yeah, 659 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 1: and and the people you know, talk radio, it's like, 660 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 1: well they can get out of his contract next year. 661 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: It's like, why would you get out of the best 662 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: receivers contract. He turned this organization around when he came 663 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Was that twenty eighteen everything changed? Everything changed. 664 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: That was the year they were going to have receiver 665 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 1: by committee and we ended up when he got here, 666 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: everything just flipped and all of a sudden, Dak Prescott 667 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,839 Speaker 1: is the quarterback bands today. They were a playoff team. 668 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 1: That's right. He went, Da knew whether to go. I mean, 669 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 1: every time he looked up, he was just he was 670 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: feeding on Cooper. So yeah, most consistent, I would definitely 671 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 1: put him there. And right now, mister Cooper has forty 672 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,720 Speaker 1: four catches for five hundred and eighty three yards, thirteen 673 00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: point three a catch, and five touchdowns. So I bet 674 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 1: if you factored out out over the rest of the season, 675 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 1: knowing that they're going to play seventeen games, that's getting 676 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: close to ninety catches, a thousand yards and ten touchdowns. 677 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 1: I was going to call you out on the four 678 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: quarterbacks who completed passes to Cooper last year, because I 679 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: was thinking Ben de Nucci may not have done that, 680 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 1: But I checked it and I didn't say. I didn't 681 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: say he completed it to I just said he had 682 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:06,439 Speaker 1: to play with That's right. He did catch one ball 683 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 1: from Danucci for five yards. So if Dak had played 684 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: the whole season, he'd have had over a hundred catches. 685 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, right, yea. If Dak would have played all 686 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 1: the last year, it would have been a lot of 687 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: stuff going on. Everyone would have would have had that. 688 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: And now we're past the halfway point of this season. 689 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,320 Speaker 1: You can't really do the it's not clean math because 690 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:31,359 Speaker 1: of the seventeen game season. But CD's got forty six 691 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: catches and the marrow he's got forty three right now, 692 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: so they're right on pace to get up near ninety 693 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: right around. And to have such talent four okay, to 694 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: have such talent on the offense and for these guys 695 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 1: to still get the numbers up, it just talks about 696 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 1: consistency on this team, especially from a quarterback position. And 697 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:52,879 Speaker 1: of course you gotta give Kellen Moore love as well, 698 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: because he's the one calling those plays and and give 699 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: them a chance to get the numbers up. I'll throw 700 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: another offensive player, and they're about Cedric Wilson. I love him, 701 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,800 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, that's my dude, And maybe made the 702 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 1: biggest stride because he's healthy and he's playing right. Last year, 703 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 1: he got the opportunity a special teams guy. Yeah, he 704 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 1: got the opportunity because Gallup was hurt so and that 705 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: that long pass in Minnesota that kind of kind of 706 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: kept us in the game. So let me give you 707 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: what has been the biggest improvement. Okay, So these stats 708 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 1: are against last year in this year on defense points allowed. 709 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: Last year, at this point in the season, they had 710 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 1: given up two hundred and ninety points two hundred in 711 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: ninety points in nine games. In nine games this year, 712 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 1: it's thirty three points again, thank you, in this year 713 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 1: one ninety five. That's a difference too, that's a difference 714 00:44:54,080 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 1: of how many mister, always the number. Again, they've improved 715 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 1: ninety five points. How many points two ninety nine five 716 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 1: net yards per game? Get your math ready? No, No, 717 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 1: he's allowed three point six last year at this point 718 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,720 Speaker 1: three fifty four this year. It's an improvement of twenty 719 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,320 Speaker 1: seven point six yards. The game. But here may be 720 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: one of the biggest ones. Rushing yards per game last 721 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 1: year at this point one fifty seven a game this 722 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:43,840 Speaker 1: year one oh one point two huge rushing touchdowns a 723 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 1: lot out eleven last year, seven this year. And how 724 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,280 Speaker 1: about at this point at this point right, how about 725 00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 1: this one interceptions this year fourteen last year at this 726 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 1: time two three. That's improvement of eleven. He got it. 727 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 1: Let's be real. I'd love to see how the second 728 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 1: half compared, because that's when a defense got best started 729 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 1: to play better. Thank you, Mike Nolan. Yeah, it took 730 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 1: that long to figure it out, right, because they quit 731 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:25,439 Speaker 1: plan a three man front and a four man front. 732 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: They quit plan the nickel every single down no matter 733 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: what the game, and they didn't have a big nickel 734 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: either way. Okay, as we wrap this up, who needs 735 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,439 Speaker 1: to be the most improved player in the second half 736 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:44,359 Speaker 1: of this season? Or you can just say who will 737 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 1: be the who will be the open either one? Either way? 738 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,399 Speaker 1: Who will be the most improved player from the first 739 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:55,399 Speaker 1: half to the second half. And I'm not sure whinning 740 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 1: he'll get out there, but it's starting to show up. 741 00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 1: Dorin's armstrong that just because there without Gregory now and 742 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: without dons DeMarcus Lawrence, so he needs to really step 743 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:12,919 Speaker 1: it up. Michael Gallop Yep, that's who I was thinking of. Gallop. See, 744 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about the offense. I think as we 745 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 1: get into the tougher games, into those stretches like Sunday, yeah, yeah, 746 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 1: and beyond like this stretch coming up Thanksgiving and all 747 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 1: of that, guys are gonna they're gonna get tired. It's 748 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: just the way it is that and we're gonna need 749 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 1: others to step up. You can't continue doing that stretch. 750 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 1: You can't. If you have a player that improves doing 751 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 1: that stretch from before that, you might look at him 752 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 1: being a little bit overwhelmed as you go into the 753 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: most improved player in the second half of the season 754 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:54,399 Speaker 1: is gonna be DeMarcus Lawrence. Oh that's a there's a stretch. Well, 755 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 1: let's put it like this. It needs to be He's 756 00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,879 Speaker 1: the one that needs to the team that you get 757 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 1: the needs to be well, not improved. He just needs 758 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:08,399 Speaker 1: to be starting from He's starting from scratch yea and game. 759 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,560 Speaker 1: That's the that's the addition that the Cowboys can bank 760 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 1: on if he can, If he can be healthy, it's 761 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 1: gonna be huge for this team the rest of the way. 762 00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: Whenever he does get out there, man Gregory, for this 763 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 1: game on Sunday and need tiring as well down the stretch, 764 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 1: that would help. Yeah, all right, that does it for 765 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:36,319 Speaker 1: this make shots. This is that Denver game.
