Speaker 1: He had a heck of a game. Heck of a game.

16
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,120

00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll dive into it a lot tomorrow when

18
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: he returns. But man, it was a heck of a game.

19
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,919
Speaker 1: I'm proud of my boy out there. I've never watched

20
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: the show's survivor. So the first forty seasons never checked out.

21
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: I was there for you, and I could see why

22
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: people enjoy it. Did become addictive to watch you were

23
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: you did find yourself rooting for personalities. And I did

24
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: not think Danny was going home. I thought it would

25
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 1: be Deshaun who got got but thus that is the game.

26
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: But Danny, Danny left, and he left in a good position. Man.

27
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: You know, I don't think anybody had any hatred or

28
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: malice toward Danny. I played a good game, man, so

29
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: I will dive into it tomorrow. And um, you know,

30

00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: and go competing and go as far as he did

33
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: and last as long as he did and represent himself. Man,

34
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: I'm happy for him while they love man, that's good

Speaker 1: stuff without a doubt. And real quick, real quick. One.

36
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: They made a mistake not getting rid of a card

37
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: last week. That man's gonna mess around and win the

38
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: whole thing because can't nobody beat him in the immunity.

Speaker 1: I said, all, man, what don't be throwing it out here? Man?

43
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: You gotta love it because you know he's putting all,

44
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: he's putting all for the boys out there, man. And

45
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: just the way they edited, how they set it up, man,

46
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: it was a It was a good salute, like let's

47
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: see y'all later, man. So I'm gonna definitely give him

48
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 1: a little bit for that tomorrow. But like you said, man,

49
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: the guy played the heck of a game. Couldn't be

50
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: more proud of the boy. I tweeted it out there, man,

51
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: I loved it. I loved it because somebody on Twitter's like,

52
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: this is the worst part. This is the worst part

53
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: I've ever survived. I was like, I loved it. Some

54
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 1: cowboy hater. It was some cowboy hater up there. And

55
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: somebody else was like, well, I prefer to think of

56
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: him as a Chicago bear, and like, okay, okay, yeah,

57
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: here we go. But good stuff there. Hey, how about

58
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy today making a little news on social media

59
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: and people running up the headlines of what he said. Now,

60
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm kind of gonna let you hear what Mike McCarthy

61
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: said about going up to Washington this week for the

62
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 1: Cowboys and whether or not in your mind this is

63
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: bullets and boardmantier Chris being played the cut from Mike

64
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: McCarthy's from today's press conference with the with the Dallas

65
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: Fort Worth Media. We know what people think of us.

66
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: We love that. We're comfortable who we are where we are.

67
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: But I'm excited about what's in front of us because

68
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: you know, we you know, we're gonna win this game.

69
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: I'm confident in that and just you know, the prep

70
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: that's going into it. But more importantly, we're gonna you know,

71
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: we want to improve too along the way. So I

72
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: think that's all part about what the challenge of December

73
00:03:54,280 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: of football give you. All Right, I couldn't really hear

74
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: it very well, Chris, but Mike McCarthy and I just

75
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: wrote down some of what he says. We're going to

76
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: Washington to win. We are going to win this game.

77
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: I'm confident in that. That's the major portion of what

78
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: people are talking about on social media. And when Mike

79
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: says it and you hear it, it's not Jimmy Johnson's

80
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: proclamation we will win the ball game. Put it in

81
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: three inch bold letters, like he said Randy Galloway back

82
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: in the nineties. But here's Mike McCarthy saying, we're going

83
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: here to win, and we're gonna win this football game.

84
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 1: That's what we're gonna go do. I had no issues

85
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: with it. Church. You played this football, You played the

86
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: game of football. You're safety in the league for the

87
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: Cowboys and the Jaguars. Tell me how you took it.

88
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: If I'm if I'm a Cowboys player, like if I'm

89
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: one of those guys in a locker room going to practice,

90
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: teaching every day, put my heart on a line for

91
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 1: the team, I'm loving it. I'm loving it like if

92
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: I'm a Boys player, I'm loving it because you love

93
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 1: to hear. As a player, you love to hear your

94
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: coach have that much confidence in you guys. When he

95
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: goes out there and says, you know what, we're gonna

96
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: go win this game. We're going up there to play

97
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: the game, and we're gonna win the game, it means

98
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: that he has confidence in all three levels of the game.

99
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: He feels like his team is better, whether it's talent wise,

100
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: coaching wise, execution wise, whatever the case may be, he

101
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: feels confident enough to say, you know what, We're gonna

102
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: go up there and win the game, because it can backfire.

103
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: It can backfire immensely if they go up there and

104
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: get beat down or even lose a close game, it

105
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: could backfire a lot. So if I'm a player for

106
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, I'm like, all right, I gotta make

107
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: my coach right now. That means I gotta lick in,

108
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: I gotta go up there, and I gotta put my

109
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: a game on because if we lose, not only does

110
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: it embarrass us as players, but it embarrasses our coach

111
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: as well. And he put all this confidence in into

112
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: us thinking we can go up there and get the

113
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: dub and basically seal up the division. So if I'm

114
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: a Cowboys player, I love it. If I'm Washington, if

115
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 1: I'm a part of that football team over there, I'm

116
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: using this as bill board material. This to me is

117
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: like one of them Nick Sirianni beat Dallas Cowboys shirts

118
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: he had on earlier in the season. I'm using that

119
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 1: as billboard material. I'm saying, look, this coach is coming

120
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: up here into your house thinking that y'all don't even

121
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: stand a chance. Today is what. Today's Thursday. So the

122
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,239
Speaker 1: game is about three four days away, and he's already

123
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: saying that they gonna whoop on y'all, no matter what

124
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: y'all got going on, no matter how many wins y'all

125
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: una had these past couple of games, he don't care

126
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: nothing about that. He don't care nothing about the momentum

127
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: y'all got, or how good y'all playing as a team.

128
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: He says, no matter what y'all do, come Sunday, y'all

129
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: gonna take this l So if I'm running with fair,

130
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: that's what I'm preaching to these players. I'm saying, look, man,

131
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: these cowboys, they say they running division. They've been winning

132
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: games all season. Now you got the coach up there

133
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: talking about they're gonna go up there and win the game.

134
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: They here. If I'm wrong with the I'm like, man,

135
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 1: look you were the five they had to win street

136
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: going on, Like they didn't just lose two or five

137
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: games or two out of well, they won two out

138
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 1: of seven games. He's past couple, they ask a couple

139
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: of games. So if I'm wrong, I'm using it as

140
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: billboard material. But if I'm a Cowboys player. I'm loving it.

141
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: I just gotta know my coach, Hey, I gotta have

142
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: you back because if you lose, it's gonna make us

143
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: both look foolish. All right, So is this a situation

144
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: in your mind where Mike McCarthy puts added pressure on

145
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: the players and saying, hey, look, we're gonna win this game.

146
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: I'm putting it on you to win this game. I

147
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: know we're gonna win this game. You're gonna have the

148
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: game player to go out here, to execute, to go

149
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: win in Washington. I think part of that's what Mike

150
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: McCarthy is doing here, and I like that. Put it

151
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: on these games, go win this game. I'm with you

152
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: on that. I like it too. Like I said, if

153
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: I was a Boys player, I like it. But there

154
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: definitely is added pressure. There's definitely added pressure when you

155
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: go into a rival situation. You go to a divisional opponent,

156
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: you know they know you like the back of their hands.

157
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: They play you twice a year home and away, like

158
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: just like you play them twice a year home and away.

159
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: So they know all your tendencies, your strengths, your weaknesses.

160
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: These are teams that know you better than any other team.

161
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: In the National Football League. So to go up there

162
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: Thursday afternoon and say we're gonna win come Sunday already.

163
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: I mean that puts a lot of pressure on that

164
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: staff to make sure they got a game plan that

165
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: they know they can go out there and succeed in.

166
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: And then it puts a lot of pressure on your

167
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: players going out there knowing they got to dominate this team.

168
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: They gotta go out there with their a game, knowing

169
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: that their coach put that much faith in them they

170
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: put he put it out there in the media already,

171
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: So to me, you gotta come with it because if

172
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: you don't, it could backfire immensely, And it's a lot

173
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: of pressure on you to get this dub now that

174
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: your coach opened his mouth and said what he had

175
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: to say. But circle back to the beginning. If I'm

176
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: a player, I love it because I know my coach

177
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: has confidence in me and he's not shying away from anythings.

178
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: So I love it going up there. And I still

179
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: got the Cowboys winning regardless, So I don't see it's

180
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 1: a bad play by coach McCarthy at all. Let's really

181
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 1: concentrate zero in on the next three football games for

182
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, because in a whole lot of ways, these

183
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: next three games can you can pretty much wrap up

184
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: this division because they've got a two game lead. You're

185
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 1: at Washington and then after that you come home to

186
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: Jerry World to face the Giants, and then the day

187
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: after Christmas on NBC it is it's Washington and Dallas

188
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 1: at one more time. So you're gonna face him two

189
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: out of the next three weeks. Man, you get you

190
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: get game, you get this game, you get the Giants game.

191
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: You're really give the driver's seat to go ahead and

192
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,839
Speaker 1: wrap this thing up. So I like the fact that

193
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: he put pressure on him to say, look, let's just

194
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: go out of the gate and knock these dudes out

195
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: of the box. Okay, let's just end this thing. Let's

196
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: end this thing. Go ahead, let him know where the

197
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,199
Speaker 1: Kings of the East go. Handle your business up there.

198
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: Vanda Scott up as a five point favorite. So I

199
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: like that part of it. And I'm gonna flip this

200
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: other side of this, Barry, you and Danny have been

201
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: talking about the run game and one Kelly Moore to

202
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: Colemore runs there is an issue with the run game.

203
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard has he sprained his foot on that fifty

204
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,599
Speaker 1: eight yard touchdown against New Arden. So he's hoping to

205
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 1: play on Sunday. I was working out with Brown a

206
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: little bit before practice. It was open to the media session,

207
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,599
Speaker 1: and then Zeke Elliott was on the bike and for

208
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: a bit before he went over there, and Zeke says,

209
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: he's going to play in the football game. But you

210
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: have two running backs now who have injuries that they're

211
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 1: dealing with a knee injury for Zeke, sprained foot issu

212
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: for Tony poll thought that that that makes me nervous

213
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: that I'm not gonna lie to you newly that that

214
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 1: scares me just a little bit because we know Tony

215
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: Pollard as a back. He's a one cut, electric juice

216
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 1: like he just brings that that speed, that that just

217
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: violence to the game. Where he's taking off, he's either

218
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,839
Speaker 1: if he's not hitting the hole, he's bouncing outside and

219
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: taking off. So I'm not quite sure how bad that

220
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: foot is sprained, but it's got to be able to

221
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: affect his game. It has to because he's a speedback.

222
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 1: He relies on his speed. It's not like he's you know,

223
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 1: the bus or Zeke out here where it's just three

224
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: yards in a cloud of dust and he's just grinding

225
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 1: and grinding, and tell maybe he pops one. This is

226
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: a guy who is a home run threat when he

227
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: touches the ball at any given moment, and that's the

228
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: strength of his game. That's what makes defensive coordinators worry

229
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: about when he touches the ball. And if that's if

230
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,199
Speaker 1: that in any way is compromised by his foot injury,

231
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: I think it slows him down and I think it

232
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 1: slows his effectiveness. Now to me, if Zeke was healthy

233
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: at black I oh, well, you know all, you know,

234
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: take the week off. You know, we get Clement to

235
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,439
Speaker 1: come in here and do a couple of third down

236
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: package situations. But then Zeke is injured as well. And

237
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: we all saw a last we get gets the Saints.

238
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,599
Speaker 1: How bad he looks. I mean, he looked like he

239
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: was limping out there. He was dragging a go ahead,

240
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: go ahead. No, it was, it was, it was, it was.

241
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 1: It was troubling to watch. Man. This is just not

242
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: the player that you've come to expect when you're watching

243
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys football. Last ye Zekie, it just know what, it

244
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: wasn't the twenty one we're used to. You're not It wasn't.

245
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: It wasn't the twenty one you're used to it. He

246
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,599
Speaker 1: wasn't grinding people down. And for the first time, I

247
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: think I mentioned this earlier the week, but it was

248
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: the first time we saw him just run out of bounce.

249
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,680
Speaker 1: There was no like, all right, gonna put my foot

250
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 1: in the ground, I'm gonna put some punishment on these

251
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: people before I go down. It was like, you know what,

252
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: I'm out, I'm tapping out. I'm going straight out of bound.

253
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 1: So and to me, you you know already how I

254
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: feel about this run game, you know. I feel like

255
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 1: that's when we're at our best, when we're at our peak,

256
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: when we got a balance attack, running pass, and if

257
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: we're out there stagnant in the run game and we

258
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: got to rely strictly on the pass, or we're one dimensional.

259
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: I think that's why we've been struggling a little bit

260
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: offensively these past couple games. And I don't want Washington

261
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,199
Speaker 1: to go ahead and take advantage of it, because even

262
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: though they don't have chase you, even though they don't

263
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: have a sweat who's in the COVID protocol, this team

264
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: can still get after the passer. I mean, they're loaded

265
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 1: with first round draft picks on the defensive line, and

266
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: if you're telling them that they are run game is compromised.

267
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: We're not able to move the football running the ball.

268
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: Then they get depend their ears back and get after

269
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,599
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. And we've seen this offensive line shows some

270
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: chicks in its armor. So it makes me a little

271
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: bit nervous. I still have the Cowboys getting this victory

272
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: because they do have an awesome trio of receivers on

273
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: the outside, but overall not having a great run game

274
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: with two injured backs, that makes me a little bit nervous.

275
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: So you're saying that the receivers need to run the

276
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: round to be where they game the way to own. Yeah,

277
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: I'm with Jerry on that. Boy. They need to get

278
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: their route run and get some separation and get that

279
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: Prescott an opportunity to throw the ball in there. Child

280
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: have been in the receiving room after that stuff came

281
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: out later on that Like what you say, NEWI as

282
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: a coach, Like if you're there the coach, I'm forget

283
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: his name right now, but Adam Jones, Yeah, Adam Jones,

284
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: and you're in the meeting room. You know these receivers

285
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: have heard this. You know, they've heard what's going on

286
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: around the Metroplex Jerry Jones show, and he's talking about

287
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: the receivers. What do you tell them? Like, what do

288
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: you tell the receivers at that point? Um, how many

289
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: of you all free agent? If you're a free agent,

290
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,839
Speaker 1: raise your hand, and there's a whole lot of room

291
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: that a whole lot of hands going up that room.

292
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: If you got No. One guarantees under contract, raise your

293
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: hand and Martin Cooper hand go up here. So there's

294
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: some guys in that room. You may not have liked

295
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 1: what the owner said, but he's writing the checks and

296
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna be turning the faith of some of these

297
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: guys because number four is not going anywhere. Okay, we know.

298
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: So when he spoke, it's it's truly one of those

299
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: where you have to listen to what Jerry Jones says,

300
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: and the fact that he doesn't say it very often

301
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: I think means something. I literally would just be okay, Okay,

302
00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:00,599
Speaker 1: he's saying something, and you have every opportunity now to

303
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: go out here and show what you can do. If

304
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: you don't like it, you've got five football games to

305
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 1: go out here and change the narrative and show Jerry

306
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: do you think he's wrong. That's the beauty of this man.

307
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: That is an absolute beauty of Sunday one pm in

308
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: Landover Maryland at FedExField. These guys can change whatever narrative

309
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones has thought about them. I agree, And and Nui,

310
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna ask you this question. Do you think

311
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: it's it's I mean, I know it's not all on

312
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: the receivers, but do you think the majority of it

313
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: is on the receivers? I mean, we've seen cde Lamb

314
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: out here. He's been playing fantastic Amari Cooper when he's healthy,

315
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: he's been actually been able to be a little bit

316
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: productive there. And then we saw Gallant come back from

317
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: his injury and do a couple of things here and there.

318
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: Do you think it's the majority of the receivers or

319
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: would you give it a fifty fifty balance with Dak

320
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: right there? Man, I just think so many this these

321
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: past few games. You know, you're talking about the loss

322
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: to go back to Denver. Okay, those basically the losses

323
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: to these AFC West teams. You're starting looking at those,

324
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: and there was a lot of perfect storm there of

325
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: you know, Denver wanting it more, playing better, Kansas City

326
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: understanding what to do, having the win to go their way,

327
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: where Dad could hit gallop on that first on that

328
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: first shot down the field, which you should have gone

329
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: a long way. I mean this in the injuries and

330
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: then the covids and coaches being missed, there's just a

331
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: lot of stuff over these past four or five football

332
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: games and just look, man just wasn't good. So you

333
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: can point to the receivers and say, Okay, you're a

334
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: part of this issue. But you can point to the

335
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: offensive line and say you're a part of this issue.

336
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: You can point to Dak Prescott and say you're a

337
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: part of this issue. Is all along the way during

338
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: these these tough games, and even a win against New

339
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: Orleans which wasn't one hundred percent Chris, you can look

340
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: at guys and just say, I don't know about this.

341
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. So I just think it's

342
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: it's a bit much to just put it all on

343
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: the receivers. But I go back into the question that

344
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: was asked by Sean and RJ on one to fight

345
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: through the fan too, Jerry, when they were asking if

346
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: something's wrong with Dak because Dak Prescott's last three football Again,

347
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: she said, since Dak's come back from the cap injury,

348
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: he's not looked as good as he did before him.

349
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: That's a fact, and so and Jerry trying to answer

350
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: the question, he basically put it on his receivers and

351
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: didn't put it on the quarterback. And I don't know

352
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: if that's necessarily one hundred percent fair because we all

353
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: have eyes and we can all see Dak Prescott has

354
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: not been the same quarterback since he came up the

355
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: cap injury. And there's nothing wrong. There's you know, there's

356
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with saying it. There's nothing wrong with saying,

357
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: you know what man's on that left that he had repaired,

358
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: and you know, we're still at times trying to figure

359
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: out where where is he at now. Dak is gonna

360
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: be like you and a lot of these other guys

361
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: who've played for the Cowboys. You're not trying to tell

362
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: everybody what's going on. You're gonna tell everybody you're all good,

363
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: you're ready to go. But just because you tell it,

364
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: I've learned in these presc cofference it's just because you

365
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: say it doesn't make it so. I agree with you

366
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: on that one. I mean, he said he was fine.

367
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: That that doesn't make it. So that's just what he said.

368
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: And in the premise of well, you're trying to take

369
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: guy sit that word. Uh, this is a gladiator sport.

370
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 1: Gladiators don't come out here. And before I fight, let

371
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: me listen down these ten injuries I got right here.

372
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,439
Speaker 1: Just let you know. Okay, so something happens, you can

373
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 1: point to one of these ten things in the wrong

374
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: with me, and I mean, that's just that's just not

375
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: what guys do. That's not what guys do. And unfortunately,

376
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: many times fans believe exactly what they here. Oh Mary

377
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 1: Cooper said he's fine, he's good to go. He's not

378
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: really good to go. And you don't know that he's

379
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: taking a shot over here and you don't know what

380
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 1: the effects are from COVID and and guys aren't gonna

381
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: come out. Actually, hey man, I've been weeezing and coughing

382
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 1: all week long. Case smell whole much. I went out here, man,

383
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: three plays out with gas. You know you're just having

384
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: to see that, yeah, or or you're not gonna see

385
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: many guys do it. Luca dot admitted this week when

386
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: he said, yeah, shit, you know you gotta be beat

387
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: at oh Luca, that can of camp away over two

388
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,719
Speaker 1: sixties so and you can see it, so you can

389
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: see it all in his face and neck. I'm like, looka,

390
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: what are you doing baby? What you're doing? Right? But

391
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: for him to even just come on out and just

392
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 1: admit it, you know, like, okay, that's that's rare. That's right.

393
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: So James Harden didn't do it, No he did not, No,

394
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: he didn't. Hey man, I'll try to get out of town.

395
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: So I decided to go ahead, making a Chrispy Kreen

396
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: type two weeks for itself. But that's what he did.

397
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: That's what he Yeah, exactly what he did. So so

398
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 1: you're not going to see Dan Prescott come out here

399
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: and saying, hey man, you know what this has hurt

400
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 1: me now, that is it's preventing me for that. You're

401
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: just not gonna get that. For guys, they're gonna pretty

402
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: much tell you they're ready to go. But just because

403
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 1: they said it doesn't make it so. And I can't

404
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 1: stress this enough, and Bear you can tell people more

405
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: about this. It's December. Nobody's who It's December. Your body's

406
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: aching you know, good thing for the Cowboys, they play

407
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: in the Dome and all that good stuff. But I

408
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: mean December, that's when you start to get out of

409
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 1: the bed and you're like, man, I gotta do this again.

410
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: And it might not even be down hoard of a practice.

411
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: You might be just and helmets, but your body's just,

412
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: especially when you get older and older in the league

413
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: when December comes around. That's why they say, if you

414
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 1: can get a win in December, it doesn't matter if

415
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,719
Speaker 1: it's good, ugly, bad, whatever the case may be. If

416
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: you can get a win in December, it's always good

417
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: because your body starts to ache, your body starts to

418
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: fail you. And then the NFL decided to add another

419
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: game onto the regular season. So these guys are gonna

420
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: be aching here for the next couple of weeks, especially

421
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: when the playoff run comes around. And I just think

422
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,199
Speaker 1: it comes down to who's the healthiest team. And right now,

423
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 1: the Cowboys they got some reinforcements coming along and hopefully

424
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: this offense can shape back into gear these next five

425
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: weeks before this run starts. All right, let's take a break.

426
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: I want to get into Trayvon Digs versus Terry mcculon

427
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: and how that matchup to play out. As the Cowboys

428

479
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: got a two game league. Washington needs this football game.

480
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: It is at home. This is your first meeting in

481
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: the next three weeks against the Cowboys. So it's Washington

482
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: in Dallas this week. Up there next week it is

483
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: Giants Cowboys, followed by Washington coming to Jerry World December

484
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 1: twenty six for NBC's Sunday Night football. The Cowboys can

485
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 1: basically go ahead right now, in my opinion, and put

486
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 1: this thing to bed. If they can win against Washington

487
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: football team this Sunday and then follow that up with

488
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: a win over the Giants. This is the Cowboys opportunity

489
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: to go ahead and makes him hey and in my opinion,

490
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 1: knock him out the box. Now, if you're Washington, what

491
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,359
Speaker 1: you're gonna try and do obviously run the football, but

492
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: when you throw it, you want to find number seventeen.

493
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin. Scary Terry's what they call him up there.

494
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: Trayvon Digs right now, nine interceptions. He is on his

495
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 1: way to a All Pro season. No camera chests said,

496
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: when we're time all Pro season and Dan quit I'm

497
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: imagine dan Quinnson says, okay, travel with them all day long,

498
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 1: and Taylor Heidek wants to take a try test. Diggs,

499
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: feel free to go ahead. I like this matchup for

500
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Yeah, I'm with you on that too. Yeah,

501
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: I love this matchup for the Cowboys. I think Diggs

502
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: has the advantage one because you know he has Heinekey

503
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: back there throwing them the football. And what we know

504
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: about Heineke is he he's a gun slinger, has that

505
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 1: gun slayer mentality. He likes to take chances. So a

506
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 1: lot of those balls we've seen McLaurin catch these past

507
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 1: couple of weeks have been fifty fifty balls. Like Heineke's

508
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: literally running running around, running around od They're seventeen, They're scary. Terry,

509
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: let me throw the ball up, and he's one of

510
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: the majority of these fifty fifty balls. But when you're

511
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: going against a guy like Traymon Diggs, who has some

512
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: receiver background and has probably arguably the best hands for

513
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 1: defensive back in the National Football League, those fifty fift

514
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: people all start to become seventy twenty five balls in

515
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: favor of Digs. So to me, I love this matchup.

516
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: I love the length that Diggs has against a fast

517
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: guy like Terry mclurin. I feel like he's gonna be

518
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: able to get up on a line of scrimmage, get

519
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: his hands on him. He's gonna be able to throw

520
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 1: that timing off. That chemistry between McClory, McLaurin, and Heineke

521
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 1: out there. But overall, this is gonna be a good one.

522
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:44,879
Speaker 1: This is gonna be a good one for people to

523
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 1: keep their eyes on because McLaurin is one of the

524
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: better round runners in the National Football League. He has

525
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: that gold juice that gas where he can run by

526
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,439
Speaker 1: everybody on the field, and he has a quarterback there

527
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 1: who's not afraid to throw the ball up to him.

528
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 1: So this will be a good matchup. Mcclurin these past

529
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: couple of years has become that not as quite as

530
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: devastating as the Sean Jackson, but he's also had a

531
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: couple of great games against these Cowboys, so he's creeping

532
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: into that kind of cowboy killer realm right now. So

533
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: it should be a great matchup. But like I said, no,

534
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 1: I'm favoring Thigs. I love the length, I love his

535
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 1: hands and his ball skills up there, and I feel

536
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 1: like it was fifty fifty balls will be his for

537
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 1: the majority part of this game. I just don't want

538
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 1: to see Anthony Brown on him. Not no disrespect Anthony Brown,

539
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,479
Speaker 1: Like he's had a great season so far this year

540
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 1: except for two games. But I just feel like the

541
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: matchup between McLaurin or yeah, McClaren and Diggs favors the

542
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys rather than Anthony Brown. And McLaurin. I just feel

543
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: like that'd be a matchup in favor of the Washington

544
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: football team, So I'm in favor of it. That's how

545
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: the Diggs travels with them and locks this guy down.

546
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: All right, We've just had somebody comment right here on

547
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: the feed. They said all pro question Mark, Yes, oh, tryon.

548
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 1: He's got nine interceptions leading the league. I'm going there.

549
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: I ain't going to say he get one more and

550
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 1: have ten. There's no way in the world of guys

551
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:07,479
Speaker 1: gonna have ten picks in the National Football League. He's pro.

552
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 1: It's only one thing. I'm gonna say, there's only one thing,

553
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: because they have Do they have like if the nickel

554
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: back its own all pro position or they just go

555
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: the top three corners? Good question. I'm not sure it's

556
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 1: a good question because if they do, like a nickel

557
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 1: was its own separate and they have just two spots

558
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: for outside corners. I mean, yeah, he has nine picks.

559
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: Are you gonna throw him over at Jalen Ramsey? Yes, Okay, okay,

560
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,199
Speaker 1: what about a JC? I mean J. C. Jackson's right

561
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 1: there and interceptions and he's also been map is giving

562
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: up as many yards, so I can see the argument,

563
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: but I'm with you. I mean, I think he definitely

564
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: deserves to be an All Pro, first team All All

565
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,160
Speaker 1: Pro because he has nine interceptions with five games left,

566
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: so he's probably gonna squeeze out maybe two or three more.

567
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: So you're looking at a guy with eleven to twelve interceptions,

568
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: you gotta throw them on there. But I can see

569
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: the argument of other guys saying, well, there's a Ramsey,

570
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 1: there's a J. C. Jackson out there. But if you're

571
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 1: going to just top three corners, there's no waiters that

572
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: he's not in the top three. I mean, the guys

573
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: had two special of the season. Yeah that you know,

574
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: you've seen him the pick sixes, and he's once again

575
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: he's gonna be in the spotlight down the stretch here.

576
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 1: And I'm still believe in the Arizona and Dallas game

577
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: is going to get flexed. Chris Bean doesn't think so,

578
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: but I think we're gonna see the Cowboys on the

579
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,680
Speaker 1: nbcing back to back weeks. I think we're gonna see

580
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: him the day after Christmas and we'll see him against

581
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: Kyler Marie in the Arizona Cardins. But I just I

582
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 1: believe Diggy's gonna get another pick, and I just don't

583
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 1: see any way Dallas Cowboy cornerback with ten picks is

584
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: not going to be on the All Protein. He's had

585
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: that kind of season. He really has. He's had that

586
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: kind of impactful season. And right now, when we look

587
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 1: at the Cowboys, the defense is playing better than the offense.

588
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: And if the defense carries his team down the stretch here,

589
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: he's going to be the person who gets the most

590
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: accolades for the performance of what's going on here. And

591
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons is planks'm outstanding football. But I don't know

592
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: if Michael Parsons will make the All Protein. But what

593
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 1: Diggs is doing at a corner and the way you

594
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: identify fight, the way they select him interceptions matter, He's

595
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 1: going to be there. I just true. You know, oh,

596
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: I completely agree with you. I think he'll be in there.

597
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: And then another point on that Arizona game is hopefully

598
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 1: we get this matchup because it'll further solidify, you know,

599
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 1: him being an All Pro. But if he's able to

600
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: go out there and shadow DeAndre Hopkins, now I don't

601
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: know if he'll be playing or not because they might

602
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: have the number one seed sewn up by then, who knows.

603
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: But if they have that matchup out there on prime

604
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: time and they flex that game and he goes out

605
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 1: there and locks him up or gets to pick or

606
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: does something great against DeAndre Hopkins, I mean that right there,

607
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: to me, he's going against the top three, maybe even

608
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: the top receiver international Football League. He's able to go

609
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: out there and lock him down, and it's on prime

610
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: time and it's against the two of the best teams

611
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: in the national or in the NFC, I gotta say,

612
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: I mean that that solidifies it for me. If he's

613
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: able to do that, Okay, and I'll say this, does

614
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 1: he need to have that kind of performance against Hopkins

615
00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: considering what he did against Jefferson Edmond is soda thanks

616
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: to Hilton two catches in that football game, I mean,

617
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: you know, and that defense only allowed one touchdown and

618
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: when Fland caught it. Um, I don't think that was

619
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: against him at all. But I look at the body

620
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: of work of what he's done already and and it's

621
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: it's when you talk about all pro quarner and what

622
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 1: you want right now that that's he's it. He's done

623
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: his part. And I know last year when we were

624
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: talking about the Cowboys after the season and looking at

625
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: the draft, and we said, this is a team devoid

626
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: of blue chip players. And that was the fact at

627
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: the time, there were no blue chip players on the

628
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: football team. And you look at the Cowboys. Now they

629
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 1: have two blue chip players. Did a corner and then

630
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: you got Michael Parsons over there at the linebacker spot.

631
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: You know, those are two blue chip players that you

632
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: have on your on your football team. So I expect

633
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: him to get the accolaides. You know, we know Pro

634
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,479
Speaker 1: Bowl for sure. Okay, we already know that, but all pros.

635
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 1: When you just say, hey, who are the best quarters

636
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: in the whole league, you're gonna select two guys. Guy, um,

637
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: he's there. In my opinion, he is there. And now

638
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 1: you got five you got five games to go with

639
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 1: the ability to solidify it even more. But what we

640
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: saw him do early on the season, and how where

641
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys were playing, and look you look at the

642
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: Saints game. Here that that pick he had. I mean

643
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: the Saints were they were driving. I mean they were

644
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: in the football game. Okay, the Cowboys won it, but

645
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: the Saints were in that football game. And here he

646
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 1: is making another key play. So the picks he's making,

647
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: these aren't those garbage picks. You know, this isn't hey man,

648
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: the end of the half. You know, he's just having

649
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 1: to know. This guy's making impact picks, changing the football game,

650
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:41,239
Speaker 1: running picks back. Um. Yes, he is an All Pro

651
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: football player, and I'm telling you, man, he's on his

652
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,239
Speaker 1: way to a second contract. I do want to say

653
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: this about Anthony Brown about let's say you wanted to

654
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: put him on Tarim mclaur if you didn't give him

655
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 1: some help give him, that's it. We make it too

656
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: to the double coverage on McLaurin, whether it's like you said,

657
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: whether it's you know, even pressing and you gotta safety

658
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: over the top, or he's playing off and you got

659
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: a linebacker buzzing underneath them to take away those shorts

660
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: intermediate routes. If you do have him, if you don't

661
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 1: want to, you know, because if you if you're traveling,

662
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,479
Speaker 1: if you're traveling with Diggs, and let's just say they

663
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: put McLaurin in motion and all this other stuff, it's

664
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna basically give your disguise if you're gonna

665
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: know if they're in man, the man or if they're

666
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: in zone. So if let's just say Quinn wants to

667
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: keep the integrity of his defense, he wants to keep

668
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: that disguise alive, and they might end up having Brown

669
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,479
Speaker 1: on mcclorin at that time, you gotta have safety help

670
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: over top. Maybe a couple of times here and there

671
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: you let them go one on one. But for the

672
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 1: most part, I'm not letting heinekee Key on Anthony Brown

673
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: with him one on one with mclorin. I'm putting them

674
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: safety help over the top where there's Kazy, whether it's

675
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 1: curse buzzing underneath or whoever the case may be. If

676
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: you want to remain the integrity of your defense and

677
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 1: keep that disguise alive, giving a man help over there

678
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: just don't set them up for failure. So I agree

679
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: with you on that point. But for the most part,

680
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: if it's me, if I'm the DC, I'm putting them

681
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: putting days on what I'm saying, Hey, man, go through

682
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 1: what you gotta do, earn that second crime track. You're

683
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: already on your way, go ahead and locked just got

684
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: down as well. How do you feel about Kazy right

685
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: about now? Right now, I'm kind of disappointed and I

686
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 1: say that because we know, like his past with Atlanta,

687
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: when he's healthy, he's one of the most ball hawking

688
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: safeties there was. I mean, he had ten picks one

689
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: year and then I think he backdoord down and followed

690
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: it up with another year was six interceptions. So I

691
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: know he has that ability to be that whole safety,

692
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 1: that deep part of it feels safety, that Earl Thomas

693
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: that can roll him back and forth. But when I

694
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: watched the tape and I watched these games, I feel

695
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: as though his angles to the football, whether it's breaking

696
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: out of the deep middle or coming down and try

697
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: to make a tackle, their angles just not have been there.

698
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 1: I mean, we looked at that New England game. He

699
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 1: was the last line of defense back there. If it

700
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: was me, you should have went to the body of

701
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: the receiver and knocked it up, but he ran right

702
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: past it. And I'm talking about when Kevin burn I

703
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: think his name is caught the past for eighty five

704
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: yards on a touchdown in that New England game. There's

705
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: just multiple instances of that where he's at the middle

706
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 1: of the field and his angles to the ball just

707
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 1: aren't where they need to be, and he's given up

708
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: a lot of big players. So right now, I say,

709
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit disappointed in Casey's game because I

710
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 1: thought he would come in here and be one of

711
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,959
Speaker 1: that ball hockey safety that Earl tim in safety when

712
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: we're talking about dan Quinn's defense. But his angles just

713
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: have been a little bit off this year. They look,

714
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: the past four or five games have not been the

715
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: best football of Demante Casey's career. So there's a lot

716
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: of guys who need to really put together a good

717
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: five games because they get ready to head into this

718
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 1: offseason because they'll be free agents. Case He's signed to

719
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: one year deal, So this is really it. This is

720
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: a big push for a whole lot of guys. I

721
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: mean you start to think about this now, there's a

722
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: lot of guys who were trying to solidify their position,

723
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: be it with the Dallas Cowboys or somewhere else in

724
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: the league next year. And consistently we see teams like

725
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 1: to sign players off playoff teams. So if you want

726
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: to make the playoffs and go further in the playoffs,

727
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: because it just helps you, I mean, really, who wants

728
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: to go outside a bunch of losers? You know, teams

729
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: won two games last year, you know, you know, but

730
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 1: like you trying to sign a bunch of Jets acting season,

731
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 1: you know, you trying to guys kind out here and

732
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 1: played some winning football and bring them into your program.

733
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 1: And so that that kind of one year you think

734
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: about Keanu Yellow one year deal. League hookers on a

735
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: one year deal. Um, Michael Gallaph is up after the season,

736
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 1: curses up after There's a lot of guys we're seeing

737
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 1: here who who are looking for that next Lake Banderash contract.

738
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: It's starting. It's starting to remind me of that twenty

739
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: sixteen year, that rookie year with Dak and Zeke, and

740
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: you know, we went on that run. We went to

741
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 1: the playoffs and we had a really good team that year.

742
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: And after that, after that season, I mean, teams came

743
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: and picked it apart. I mean they basically blew up.

744
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: The secretary I went to Jacksonville. I think Claiborne went

745
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: to the Jets. The car went to Baltimore. We had

746
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: some other guys in the linebacker situation. I went other places.

747
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 1: I mean, when you have a good team and you

748
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: got so many people on their last year or one

749
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 1: year deals, these teams around the league, there they're scouting,

750
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 1: they're looking at you as well, like, man, I bet

751
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: you that guy can do great for our organization, so

752
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna pick him part this team once the season's over.

753
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: And it's something these guys to either solidify your resume,

754
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: to solidify your spot with the Cowboys, or at least

755
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: put it out there to where another team will want

756
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: to come up and grab you and give you a

757
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: nice chuck of change. All right, we gotta take one

758
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 1: more break here. Based on that, I want to ask

759
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,440

813
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: take you back in kind of how we were talking

814
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,919
Speaker 1: about the last conversation. So you were there. You talked

815
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: about how that you guys had that great year twenty sixteen,

816
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: thirteen and three team teams good. Everybody comes for the

817
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: free agent players. Got a bunch of Cowboy players who's

818
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: neither contracts are coming up here or you know, they

819
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 1: the Cowboys could exercise their ability to walk away from

820
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 1: their contract team. When you're in that kind of situation,

821
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: What is December like for you? To me? It was

822
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 1: the final push? Like I knew. I knew, I had

823
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: just you know, filling in the back of my head

824
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,800
Speaker 1: that you know, I wasn't going to be back with

825
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. I mean, I think they had a

826
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 1: lot of different places they had to put their money,

827
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 1: didn't have a lot of cab whatever excuses they want

828
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: to give, But I knew I wasn't going to be

829
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: back here, so to me the final push, I had

830
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 1: to get good tape on there. I had to make

831
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 1: sure that I wasn't giving up busted coverages or I

832
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 1: wasn't getting beating man and man, I was doing all

833
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: my jobs and all my responsibilities and helping this team

834
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: win because I knew if I was able to do that,

835
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: I don't care what team I went through. I was

836
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:16,840
Speaker 1: going to the highest bidder and I'll definitely I'll definitely

837
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 1: tell you this. You know, the grass is not always

838
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: greener on the other side and these other organizations. I

839
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: feel like the Dallas Cowboys, and not just because I

840
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 1: played here, but they have a top notch organization. They

841
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: treat the players right, and you're not gonna You're not

842
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: gonna basically make as much as you do off the

843
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: field with the Cowboys with other teams. But if you're

844
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: in a situation where this is your first time to

845
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 1: really get the bag, to really get as much money

846
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,399
Speaker 1: as you can, then you gotta go for it, whether

847
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 1: that's what the Cowboys or not, because you know what

848
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 1: this league stands for, the NFL not for long. I mean,

849
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: you got you gotta maximize on your opportunities to make

850
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,959
Speaker 1: as much money as you can and this short period

851
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: amount of time. And that was my thought process. I

852
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 1: knew I wasn't going to come here to Dallas, so

853
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: I gotta good put good tape on there, and hopefully

854
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: some teams will come give me a nice chunk of

855
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 1: change for my services. And that's what I was able

856
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: to do. I went to Jacksonville, played there for the contract,

857
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: and then I retire. But for me, when you're thinking

858
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: about free agency and you're thinking about what do I

859
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: need to do, make sure you handle your business on

860
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: the field first, you know, don't get too far ahead.

861
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: Don't be thinking, Okay, well I got this, I did this,

862
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:21,879
Speaker 1: maybe this team will holler over or maybe I'll fit

863
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: good with that team. Don't worry about none of that

864
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: until the season is over. Make sure you keep your

865
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: eyes focused on what you gotta do, and that's put

866
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 1: good tape on the field. When loser draw, make sure

867
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: you're handling your responsibilities on the field. You're not giving

868
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: up big busted coverages or plays like that, because that's

869
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 1: the quickest way for you not to get paid in

870
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 1: the offseason. So you gotta focus on what you gotta

871
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: do and hopefully it comes out on top. But if

872
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,759
Speaker 1: you start thinking about, you know, maybe this team or

873
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: maybe that situation, it will take away your focus on

874
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: the field and you end up playing bad and then

875
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,280
Speaker 1: you won't get paid at all. So to me, focus

876
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 1: on the field first. Worry about the contract and all

877
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: that other type of situations. Once the season's done. A

878
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 1: lot of stuff to play for here in December. Just

879
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 1: member football games are just different, folks. It's just different.

880
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: And obviously livelihoods are at stake as well for players,

881
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: but also on the coaching side. A lot of rumors

882
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: start getting that put out here around right now. George Edwards,

883
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 1: Cowboys assistant defensive assistant who spends a lot of time

884
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: with the linebackers. He is up for the head football

885
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:23,800
Speaker 1: coaching job at Duke. So he's a former former players

886
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: so his name is there. Former Cowboy head coach Jason

887
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 1: Garrett his name is up there at Jay and the

888
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator over at Texas A and M Mike Elko

889
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: his name is up there as well. So right so,

890
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,279
Speaker 1: these are some of the guys that are they're there.

891
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: Tony Elliott is not going, and he was up for

892
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: the Duke job, but he's gonna take the Virginia job here.

893
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: So um, it looks like there may be hope for

894
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: George Edwards to get the job here. But it's gonna

895
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,439
Speaker 1: be it's gonna be interesting. Um, it's it's gonna be tough,

896
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: especially with JAG's name in the hat. I mean, you're

897
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: going to a score and it Duke may not be

898
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 1: IVY level, but it's one of those you know, prestigious

899
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:06,880
Speaker 1: you know college universities where academics is definitely key when

900
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: you're going into that school and you know JG he

901
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 1: has that IVY league that fast. I mean, I'm just

902
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 1: saying it's a matchmate in heaven. That's all I'm saying.

903
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 1: Oh that's okay, Okay, So so let me just start

904
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 1: ripping it off from the time. Number one, he's never

905
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 1: coached in college, Okay, never coaching college. And today so

906
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: today's college football is a whole other beast. In fact,

907
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 1: you got college coaches trying to run out of college

908
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: because of this whole nil deal. There's a lot of

909
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: the day. Man, I got to recruit him. Now I

910
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 1: got to help him get paid too. And I step

911
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 1: at the door and they want to know, Okay, what

912
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: you got for me, because the last coaches came up here,

913
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 1: this is what they're gonna give me. I mean, so,

914
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,239
Speaker 1: so this whole NIL deal is a different beast, and

915
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: if you haven't been in it, it is hard. And

916
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:53,799
Speaker 1: you talk about Jason Garrett coming in here to coach

917
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,400
Speaker 1: and learning rules. I remember when I worked over at

918
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,479
Speaker 1: US and I worked in LA and I covered USC.

919
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: They brought Paul Hacking in from the NFL, and Paul

920
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 1: had been to college coach. There are many things he

921
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: didn't know what to do. He didn't know. Okay, late

922
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 1: late game situation, sc gets a first down, he calls

923
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: the time out to stop, plot like what are you doing?

924
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: Clock automatically stops in college football. So there were a

925
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: lot of that he just didn't know. And along the way,

926
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: the way he treated the players, I mean, it just

927
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: wasn't a good fit. It was a terrible fit. But

928
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: when I look at Jason Garrett and I just say

929
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: to myself, you're if you're Duke University, Mike Elco makes

930
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 1: a lot of sense because he already coached at Wake

931
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: Force and helped Wake Force build a program that they

932
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 1: have today where they played for the ACC championship and

933
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 1: hack of a good defensive coordinator. But Wake Force, when

934
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 1: you talk about the academics and you talk about a

935
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: small football school, it's really the same. And to me,

936
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,840
Speaker 1: if I'm Duke University, I'm looking over Wake to the

937
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 1: east of me, and I'm saying I mean to the

938
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: west of me, and I'm saying, Okay, that's what I'm

939
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 1: trying to build. I want that kind of program. Why

940
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 1: not go get somebody truly has an understanding of how

941
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 1: to go do that, who's been recruiting, who can Oh,

942
00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: by the way, in a place like Duke, you got

943
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 1: to go try to really get across the nation to

944
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 1: get some kids because you gotta have such a high

945
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: academic standard to recruit him. But Mike's already been down

946
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 1: here in Texas. He knows where Texas talent is. And

947
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: then plus he's already been in the ACC. So to me,

948
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 1: if you're dude, you go there, not some guy from

949
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: the NFL who's just legal job losing to the job

950
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: where everybody said he was predictable calling plays. You don't

951
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 1: think j G can go down there and get some

952
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 1: of the top recruits. You don't think j G would

953
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 1: be one of them good recruiters down there. Getting everybody

954
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,359
Speaker 1: a come to this Duke University won't get you, right,

955
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,839
Speaker 1: I got the NFL experience, head coaching experience. You don't

956
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: think he'd be a good fit down there. I mean,

957
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 1: I know that this is predictable. They made that, but

958
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I don't know. Maybe you get

959
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 1: some players around them he can get from work out there. Okay,

960
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna give you the example. How's that working

961
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: out for her met with today? There's a state right

962
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: now herf that's a guy though the whole beef as

963
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 1: a guy. Man, How's how's it working out for that

964
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: guy who went from New Whitland Bill Belichick staff over

965
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: there to to Arizona. How's that working out there? There's

966
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:03,959
Speaker 1: a terrible ti here, Charlie Wis j G the hope

967
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: they're not? JG? I'm telling you can turn that thing around.

968
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,800
Speaker 1: He could turn that organization at that university or around.

969
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: And I'm too far far gone when they were in

970
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,719
Speaker 1: the ACC championship. I think when Daniel Jones was there,

971
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: they were up there, so they ain't too far gone.

972
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 1: And I think JG can bring those those recruits in

973
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 1: there as well. So I j G got my he

974
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 1: got my support man, he got me college room. College

975
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 1: recruiting is hard. I mean I was. I was over

976
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,319
Speaker 1: the TCU campus the other day and then was talking

977
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 1: with the dean the School of Business and he's been

978
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,399
Speaker 1: working with the ad about just Nil and how they're

979
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 1: trying to figure out, Hey, how do we work this thing?

980
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: This is a whole situation that people on these colleges

981
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: are trying to figure out here. So you're gonna bring

982
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 1: a guy who hasn't done any recruiting and now he said, hey,

983
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: do you know nil is do you know? That's that?

984
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 1: To me, that's a tough ask. And if and if

985
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 1: I'm Duke University, I'm gonna hire somebody who's already in

986
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: an understanding of what to do. And plus they can't

987
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: emphasize this enough. Man, there's you can't recruit everybody there

988
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 1: church because of the acause of the academic standards so

989
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 1: high out there. You're not gonna get you a five star,

990
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 1: but he has a you know, two point three GBA

991
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 1: high school. It's not it ain't gonna work out that way.

992
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: This this is a tough deal. That's why I said

993
00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 1: that guy like Elko who's at Wake fourth, they already knew, Hey,

994
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: there's only a certain kind of kids that we could

995
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 1: bring in. Yeah, Will McClay the Cowboys, Will went to

996
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 1: He went to Rice University, and Will can tell you

997
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,439
Speaker 1: when when um my old buddy David Bayeff was coaching

998
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: down that Rice, David Bayleff used to tell me said, Nwi,

999
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: I lose more kids to the oil and gas industry

1000
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,720
Speaker 1: than I do to the NFL director because they're smart

1001
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 1: and they go on these internships. And he says, we

1002
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 1: just recruit a different type of kids. They're just kids.

1003
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 1: We kid even we don't even bother to knock on

1004
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:52,440
Speaker 1: their door. So I just think that they'd be better

1005
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:54,920
Speaker 1: off finding somebody who has a better understanding of what

1006
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:57,360
Speaker 1: to do there. All right, very church, good stuff. Tomorrow,

1007
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:00,680
Speaker 1: Dave mccraig, we'll join us feedback here and we will

1008
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: review with him, and that he could tell us all

1009
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 1: about Survivor. He can finally tell us the little ins

1010
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 1: and outs about Survivor and what he didn't like and

1011
