Speaker 1: The following. Here's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Cowboys. This is the
Speaker 1: Player's laud broadcasting live from Dallas Cowboys World headquarters at
Speaker 1: the Star. Now your hosts Barry Church, Danny mccraig, heck
Speaker 1: Ma Harrison and knew he scrugs. Let's right, it's Monday,
Speaker 1: Monday right here it is, and the players brought to
Speaker 1: you by TOSTI. Does we've got heck Ma Harrison here,
Speaker 1: Barry Church, I'm do scrugs. All right, Cowboys go down
Speaker 1: twenty six seventeen last night in Philadelphia, and whenever the
Speaker 1: game ends, we all have an initial just thought, ok,
Speaker 1: just a reaction to it. Church, what was your thought?
Speaker 1: What was your reactions to? We'll go around the room
Speaker 1: by see. I'm sorry, I do not want to interrupt
Speaker 1: none of this. What's up with y'all? What's happening right now?
Speaker 1: What you're talking about? Y'all? I mean, for real, everybody
Speaker 1: in the parallel universe right now? What's going on? Man?
Speaker 1: What a tasty cake at the little we Finally last
Speaker 1: night was enough? Man? Y'all thought last night last when
Speaker 1: did y'all get together and have a power wow about this.
Speaker 1: This is separate line. Y'all gotta say, Okay, man, that's
Speaker 1: that's all the medicine my boy needed, you know, that's it.
Speaker 1: That's all that's all he did. Man, go right ahead, y'all, Okay, cool,
Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna do offense, We're gonna defend. And
Speaker 1: it's really just just you know, when the game in
Speaker 1: especially you'd beat the former player to the game, and
Speaker 1: what's what's your first thought? What stuck out to me
Speaker 1: the most. I'm gonna tell you what stuck out to
Speaker 1: me the most about this game. Man, I'm looking a
Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball. Um. I feel as though,
Speaker 1: for the first time and probably two years since he's
Speaker 1: been here, I felt like when got a coach man,
Speaker 1: I felt like he got on coach. It was kind
Speaker 1: of like a prize fight out there. It was, you know,
Speaker 1: punch counter punch, punch CounterPunch. But I don't feel like
Speaker 1: he ever had the answer. All right. They did what
Speaker 1: I thought they would do to Michael Parsons, which has
Speaker 1: put him in the RPO. Forced him to make a
Speaker 1: decision out there. He can't just come off the edge
Speaker 1: chasing people down getting these quarterbacks, say we win' gonna
Speaker 1: let him do that. We're gonna make them think a
Speaker 1: little bit out there. And Philadelphia did a hell of
Speaker 1: a job doing that. They presented them with that RPO,
Speaker 1: that run pass option all night long and had him
Speaker 1: thinking about it all night long. And that slowed Michael
Speaker 1: Parsons down all right, that slowed him down a little bit.
Speaker 1: But then second half comes around, dan Quinn makes a
Speaker 1: little bit of adjustment. He starts to heat up. He
Speaker 1: starts to heat up Hurts a little bit. He starts
Speaker 1: to heat him up. And it worked. You know, that
Speaker 1: first drive coming out of a halftime three and out, Boom,
Speaker 1: they get the ball back to Dallas. But then Syrianni
Speaker 1: and the Eagles after that drive because Doubts took up
Speaker 1: the whole third quarter with that long ass drive or
Speaker 1: that long drive from for a Cooper rush. But when
Speaker 1: the Eagles got the ball back Syrianni, they went right
Speaker 1: back to the ground game. And something that's been a
Speaker 1: check in this a chink in this armor for the
Speaker 1: past two years, people running being able to run the
Speaker 1: football on the Dallas Cowboys. And necessarily it wasn't Hurts
Speaker 1: that was doing all the damage. Miles Sanders got involved,
Speaker 1: Kenneth gettingwell, Gangwell got involved. Bart Scott that Bart Scott, Yeah,
Speaker 1: number thirty five something Scott, last name Scott, Boston Scott,
Speaker 1: Boston Scott. He was getting involved in it as well.
Speaker 1: And I feel as though when they did that, Quinn
Speaker 1: had no answer to it. He had no answer to it.
Speaker 1: So when they come back around, I'm sure he'll be
Speaker 1: in the lab and he'll get going again. But to me,
Speaker 1: I felt like he got out of coach. And that
Speaker 1: was the biggest thing that stuck out to me because
Speaker 1: if we look at it, that very first drive, Philly
Speaker 1: came out high. What was they doing. They were doing
Speaker 1: that RPO and having a j Brown cross face on Parson,
Speaker 1: slowing him down even more wide opened a couple of
Speaker 1: times touchdown. He never really got ahold of that play.
Speaker 1: To me, that's what stock out the most. Man. He
Speaker 1: got out coach. Now he's still having a coach, he's
Speaker 1: still you know, the mad scientists out there. But he
Speaker 1: took a little bit of a hell yesterday. Heck, you know,
Speaker 1: I in a way that I didn't expect for the
Speaker 1: scheme to be too much for our defense. I think
Speaker 1: that's where I was kind of surprised, uh, And I
Speaker 1: have to give kudos to them and how they approached
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons, and I called it paralysis by analysis. You know,
Speaker 1: you got a guy out there, he's thinking too much.
Speaker 1: And if you don't see the wildcat with a quarterback
Speaker 1: that's what I called RPO every week, then you know
Speaker 1: that you have to ask yourself what's going what's my responsibility.
Speaker 1: It's like anything if you're watching high school football, watching
Speaker 1: college football, someone has that triple option. You don't see
Speaker 1: it every week. So therefore it's hard for you to
Speaker 1: scheme for it during the week, right because you don't
Speaker 1: practice against it. So going up against the Lions, you're
Speaker 1: not gonna see these guys come out in any RPO
Speaker 1: look to that extent that they were running it. I
Speaker 1: thought the defense in the first quarter did a pretty
Speaker 1: good job, but it was ben don't break situation that
Speaker 1: was happening with our defense. But I think once the deep,
Speaker 1: once the turnover started to happen, that's when the field
Speaker 1: position got flipped and it was it was game on
Speaker 1: after that, you know, And so I have to give
Speaker 1: them credit for knowing where our weaknesses were going to be,
Speaker 1: and they circled the one guy that we believe it
Speaker 1: is our strength, and they made Michael Parsons instead of
Speaker 1: him being able to throw caution to the wind and
Speaker 1: just barrel down and go right out to the quarterback
Speaker 1: there he was studying in real time and it slowed
Speaker 1: him down. And you mentioned the boxing match, and my
Speaker 1: first thought was, Okay, they came out they Philadelphia. They
Speaker 1: came out here ready to go. And I don't think
Speaker 1: the Cowboys were just ready for all that intensity that
Speaker 1: was in the building. I talked to a couple of
Speaker 1: folks who with the game I did not go to Philadelphia, like, okay, man,
Speaker 1: this place was loud. These dudes ready to go. They
Speaker 1: remember that fifty spot the day ate last year, so
Speaker 1: they were ready to go, and they came out firing.
Speaker 1: To me, you look at some of the numbers here,
Speaker 1: it was kind of favorable along the way. But I
Speaker 1: spoke last week about third down guys. Did the Cowboys
Speaker 1: third down conversions not as high twenty ninth in the
Speaker 1: league versus Phillies Last night? Third downs four of ten
Speaker 1: for Dallas Philadelphia six or fourteen. So much of football
Speaker 1: is decided on third down, So you lose a third down, Uh,
Speaker 1: you lose that that battle three turnovers in Philadelphia, you
Speaker 1: can't that. You know, you didn't get one coboys, Deefen
Speaker 1: didn't one at Also, that's as you lose third downs,
Speaker 1: you lose the turnovers and you go to time of
Speaker 1: possession thirty four minutes for Philadelphia. These are the things
Speaker 1: that we said, Okay, this is what Dallas can't do.
Speaker 1: I mean it's just overall as a team, you know.
Speaker 1: And then ten penalties, guys again, ten penalties. I mean
Speaker 1: the things that you just can't go on the road
Speaker 1: to a good football team and do. No. You might
Speaker 1: be getting you get away and beat Cleveland with that
Speaker 1: and Carolina like that, but you're not gonna beat Philadelphia
Speaker 1: that way. So I looked at this. I just said, okay,
Speaker 1: these are the things that happened. If I if I
Speaker 1: am Dan Quinn and Mike McCarthy today, you know you've
Speaker 1: got some things to work on. But you gotta feel
Speaker 1: good from the standpoint. These dudes got down twenty three
Speaker 1: twenty nothing. Battle back they did? They battle? I give
Speaker 1: them they battle back. Um, I just don't feel the
Speaker 1: sky is falling. Some folks are just pessimic. Okay, On, No,
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna go sixteen to one. Go on, Sky's
Speaker 1: definitely not falling. I mean, I mean it is definitely
Speaker 1: not worked to be done here, of course. And when
Speaker 1: you talk about penalties, the thing that just frustrated me
Speaker 1: the most, man, it was it's the controllables. Look at
Speaker 1: the controllable penalties that's always there, man, Like, that's the thing.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you're Dante Foller. Come on, man, this is
Speaker 1: the second or third time in the year you don't
Speaker 1: did this? I mean, did you not want to come
Speaker 1: out of the screen on Dante Fla, it's not something four? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's fourth. I'm going to call that situational awareness. Are
Speaker 1: they gonna go forward on fourth and four? Probably not.
Speaker 1: It's not gonna. It's not gonna happen. Uh. And there's
Speaker 1: no excuses for that, really are And I think you know,
Speaker 1: back to what you were saying, knew it Like the
Speaker 1: penalties are maddening, especially the special teams penalties. When you
Speaker 1: have those convnted Turpin is on his way and you
Speaker 1: have great feel position or good enough feel position, and
Speaker 1: you have a penalty and you set your offense back
Speaker 1: which is not good enough to have those kind of
Speaker 1: things happen. Yet, you know, you have to give Cooper
Speaker 1: Rush every advantage on the football field. He cannot be
Speaker 1: in a situation where he's starting a drive from the
Speaker 1: ten yard line and you're expecting him to go ninety nah.
Speaker 1: You know, we want to set him up to be favorable.
Speaker 1: But the a penalties, man, were maddening. The one that
Speaker 1: really like took me off the over the edge was
Speaker 1: the one with Michael. I'm just like, I'm like, Michael,
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't do that in a situation where
Speaker 1: you get to stop, you get to stop, you get
Speaker 1: everything that you need and then you get taunting a
Speaker 1: penalty that and you give them new life. That's that's hard.
Speaker 1: And that's where you know, kind of his age showed
Speaker 1: a little bit there right there. He's kind of young still.
Speaker 1: I mean, I understand it's hype. You know, emotions are
Speaker 1: going to The lead up to this game was outstanding,
Speaker 1: you know, both sides going back and forth, so you
Speaker 1: knew there was gonna be some hype to it. And
Speaker 1: he made he made a heck of a play. You know,
Speaker 1: Gardon one of the best tight ends in the game
Speaker 1: and got her make a heck of a play. And
Speaker 1: as a player, you want to let him know that
Speaker 1: I'm here all day, all right, You're gonna see me
Speaker 1: a number eleven all day. But but you gotta do
Speaker 1: it in a more subtle way, I mean an experience.
Speaker 1: He'll be able to understand how you do that. You
Speaker 1: kind of hit him with a wit and where you
Speaker 1: walked by me, you kind of whisper in his ear
Speaker 1: like him, I'm here. I mean, you gotta get that
Speaker 1: Larry bird. You got tot was good at it. Kill
Speaker 1: him on the load, you got to. But when you
Speaker 1: get up flexing all up in his ear, I'm here, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're gonna call you out on it, man. And you
Speaker 1: know he'll learn, he'll learn as he gets more experienced,
Speaker 1: how to get that subtleness in there. But that was
Speaker 1: a huge penalty, mane. That was That was I don't
Speaker 1: want to call a game changing, but it was. It
Speaker 1: happened at a time when the defense, your defense is
Speaker 1: is showing up. They're giving you all the things that
Speaker 1: you needed. And that were just times that our defense
Speaker 1: looks so on. They looked like they were on the hills,
Speaker 1: all right. And I have to give credit to the
Speaker 1: Philadelphia offensive line because they were blocking our guys to
Speaker 1: the echo of the w all right. And as a
Speaker 1: defensive guy, you hate that. You hate that because you're
Speaker 1: looking at the ref like, come on, man, you don't
Speaker 1: see that, you know, and the refs are not doing
Speaker 1: anything about it. They're they're holding you, but they're getting away,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's like all of those
Speaker 1: things were happening in this game, and you could tell, like, look,
Speaker 1: these guys were getting frustrated. You can see it in
Speaker 1: the interior linement Giza. They were getting frustrated, you know,
Speaker 1: they were getting because he was a lot of that
Speaker 1: standing around the pile. Guy's blocking you while you're standing
Speaker 1: around the pile. And I'm sure, like I said, for
Speaker 1: those defensive guys at Tristan Hill, he was ready to
Speaker 1: fight out, you know, because because once it came down
Speaker 1: to him, you just sitting there and you're like, come on,
Speaker 1: Tristan man. You know, you guys are trying to make
Speaker 1: the make a stop. But then they are getting their
Speaker 1: run going. And it's not like they're getting the run
Speaker 1: going on the edges. They're getting the run going in
Speaker 1: the a gap and when you're getting when you're getting
Speaker 1: the run going in the A gap, it just takes
Speaker 1: your heart out as a defense man. Philadelphia had a
Speaker 1: good game playing against horses. They had a good game
Speaker 1: plan and and all you gotta do is read social
Speaker 1: media Twitter. Eagle fans is trying to call. Someone said,
Speaker 1: oh he's Michael Persons. You know like that Michael Persons.
Speaker 1: That's good. And I look at I just looked at
Speaker 1: this game from this is this is a growth perspective
Speaker 1: type of football game. So where Dan Quinn and these
Speaker 1: guys are gonna get be able to get in here
Speaker 1: and say, guys, this these are the things that if
Speaker 1: people are gonna beat you, this number one, we can't
Speaker 1: beat ourselves and then allow them to beat you. The
Speaker 1: Cowboys still got to stop the run. I am I
Speaker 1: am convinced now if you want to beat the Dallas Cowboys,
Speaker 1: you need to run the football. And they have got
Speaker 1: to figure out how to fix that. Um the Eagles
Speaker 1: in this football game, I mean, Jalen Hurts had nine
Speaker 1: rushes for twenty seven yards, but they were effective. These
Speaker 1: were just effective rushes and they kept the change moving here.
Speaker 1: He basically ran when he had to um and even
Speaker 1: just to the threat of him running with uthing there.
Speaker 1: But the goboys got to fix this man. That's that's
Speaker 1: just my take on the Cowboys. Rundy, what about you. No, Look,
Speaker 1: I think you try and mitigate. You want to take
Speaker 1: away one thing as a defense, like you ain't gonna
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna give up the big play all right
Speaker 1: over the top, but you ain't gonna run on us,
Speaker 1: right Or you say we're gonna bend, don't break in
Speaker 1: the run concept. You know, we're gonna let you have it.
Speaker 1: Then when you get close enough, we're just gonna bear
Speaker 1: down and shut it down. I thought that they tried
Speaker 1: to stay alignment assignment really well, but there were just
Speaker 1: those moments where you they were they were guessing too much.
Speaker 1: And I just go back to the days of the
Speaker 1: Big eight man Jamale Holloway, guys from the Oklahoma and
Speaker 1: the Triple Option, and you couldn't run you like they
Speaker 1: had so many athletes for Oklahoma back in the day.
Speaker 1: Church that man, this man Holloway was like a magician
Speaker 1: with the ball. You know, here a fake and if
Speaker 1: your edge went that way, he was going ad yards.
Speaker 1: It was a rap, you know, yep, guys like that
Speaker 1: Tommy Frasier, even like guys that used to run this option.
Speaker 1: And that's why I said to myself, I'm like, this
Speaker 1: defense looks like this is an offense that they're facing
Speaker 1: that they're not used to seeing these kinds of concepts
Speaker 1: where you have to stay in your lane. If you
Speaker 1: get out of that lane, you may give up an
Speaker 1: eighty yard touchdown. And that's the part that I felt like,
Speaker 1: I just wanted Micah to destroy. It hurts. I'm like,
Speaker 1: forget it, forget the pitch straight at just go straight
Speaker 1: at him and put him on this But because that's
Speaker 1: the only way that you could stop him for even
Speaker 1: he'll start pitching it early that yeah, he'd get rid
Speaker 1: of it quick. But he was just in a situation
Speaker 1: where he especially on that on the goal line the
Speaker 1: past um to number six. I can't think of smith
Speaker 1: the smith. I was like, that was a hell of
Speaker 1: a play. But you look at our defenders on that play.
Speaker 1: Everybody was like bad eyes man man. The reaction from
Speaker 1: Digs that got the penalty, he slamed the helmet down
Speaker 1: in the end zone after that um. That showed you.
Speaker 1: That showed you some of the confusion. But this once again,
Speaker 1: this is a growth game. All right, Philly. You emptied
Speaker 1: your bucket. You emptied your bucket on what you have
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. Now they've seen it, and you know
Speaker 1: you gotta go. Now, go go play. You know as
Speaker 1: to use old Jason Garrett stacks and wins. Got you
Speaker 1: got Detroit, You've got Chicago, You've got Green Bay after that.
Speaker 1: So you've got games to play. Christmas Eve, dudes come
Speaker 1: down here and you're you're hoping to have your your
Speaker 1: crew healthy to go and see if they can run
Speaker 1: this thing back on you. But it's it's a it's
Speaker 1: it's not a game to sit up here and hold
Speaker 1: your heads on fraudulent or anything like that. You know what,
Speaker 1: they came out there, you battle back. The Cowboy defense
Speaker 1: just could not make the stop they needed to once
Speaker 1: it got to twenty to seventeen. I mean they marched
Speaker 1: down on him. This is this is what what do
Speaker 1: you guys calling on Mondays was a Garrett vision getting circle.
Speaker 1: So Dan Quinn's gonna sit up here, look at the
Speaker 1: defense all the offensive side. Kellen Moore's gonna be looking
Speaker 1: at the offense. Guys. This is where we left place
Speaker 1: where we shut ourselves to foot and I just think
Speaker 1: overall McCarthy, McCarthy so done a very good job the
Speaker 1: last two seasons after losses. So hey, here come here,
Speaker 1: come lines this week, you got this game? Get ray roll.
Speaker 1: I know we're gonna take a break here, but did
Speaker 1: anybody have anything to say about the challenger? Not to challenge?
Speaker 1: That is what I was gonna get talk We got
Speaker 1: we got to talk about because because we we we
Speaker 1: definitely we need to breathe on this one. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: want to be up because yeah, I want to breathe one.
Speaker 1: I want to I want to say that because one
Speaker 1: of the main criticisms that symptoms one of the main
Speaker 1: criticisms of Mike McCarthy was game manager. When he got
Speaker 1: this job. People in Green baby lie man, we'll have issue.
Speaker 1: I have issues. Let's talk about the challenge that wasn't

Speaker 1: Light Loud. It brought to you by Tostitos. That's heckm
Speaker 1: Harrison's Bury Church. I'm new, he scrugs. Cowboys coming off
Speaker 1: a twenty six to seventeen loss in Philadelphia. Cooper Rush
Speaker 1: was the quarterback in the game, had three interceptions, Cowboys,
Speaker 1: did not get a turnover, didn't win the battle on
Speaker 1: third down, defense, state on the field, thirty four minutes
Speaker 1: and thirty seconds. These are the tough times that about
Speaker 1: Curtis blow rate. So definitely what happened there because those
Speaker 1: were the breaks for them. Mike McCarthy, his game management
Speaker 1: called into question and debated very much after the game
Speaker 1: when the Cowboys lost. So Ceedee Lamb converts a third down, okay,
Speaker 1: and just you know, just kept fighting stretches the ball
Speaker 1: out on TV. I thought it was clear to me
Speaker 1: watching on TV, even in real time, before he saw
Speaker 1: the instant he stretched out for and so Mike says
Speaker 1: he talked to the official on the sidelines who said, nah,
Speaker 1: didn't get it. He said he wanted to believe the
Speaker 1: official and come on, so they go for it on
Speaker 1: fourth down, they don't. Don't converts, you get Philadelphia and
Speaker 1: easy feel. Defense does their part, but this was this
Speaker 1: wasn't good. Now. It's pivotal moment. Not good, especially when
Speaker 1: you think about, all right, you're not calling the place, Mike.
Speaker 1: You know you got Kellen to do that. You're not
Speaker 1: called defense. This is your job as the CEO. He
Speaker 1: didn't get it done. A lot of criticism going around
Speaker 1: for him today. Heck, I'll start with you your thoughts. Man.
Speaker 1: You can give him every excuse in the world in
Speaker 1: that situation, but you're starting to run out of him
Speaker 1: as far as game management is concerned. When you don't
Speaker 1: challenge that spot, if you do it just for the
Speaker 1: hell of it, just for giggles, you know, flip a coin,
Speaker 1: rock paper scissors, you know, it looked like he may
Speaker 1: have got there. I just thought that was a moment
Speaker 1: in the game when Mike did not challenge. I struggled
Speaker 1: with that just to figure out what could he have
Speaker 1: possibly been thinking. And I don't know if he's in
Speaker 1: the stadium not getting the same replate it we're getting
Speaker 1: at home. But still, you know, looking at it, it it
Speaker 1: looked like clearly there was a first down. And then
Speaker 1: you come back hindsight, as always twenty twenty, you say, Mike,
Speaker 1: if you if your challenge, you would have won that. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's one aspect of it. But then after that, put
Speaker 1: the ball if you and if you don't punt on
Speaker 1: fourth and inches, I mean, that wasn't for it was
Speaker 1: fourth and inches, You turn around, you hand the ball off,
Speaker 1: and then you go from there with that decision. But
Speaker 1: I think as backed up as you were, analytics is
Speaker 1: gonna get somebody asked, because you cannot, in that situation
Speaker 1: that early in the game say that we're gonna throw
Speaker 1: caution to the win, no matter what the numbers say.
Speaker 1: You have to pump that ball, you know, and if
Speaker 1: you're not gonna run it, and if you don't have
Speaker 1: us I don't know, one running play and your whole
Speaker 1: powers something that can get you a half an inch,
Speaker 1: then man, throw the whole playbook away. Yeah, I'm with you,
Speaker 1: one hundred percent. I mean a little in your real time,
Speaker 1: it kind of looked like he stretched it over and
Speaker 1: gat it. And you know, maybe you take your time
Speaker 1: a little bit, get your guys in the booth to say, hey,
Speaker 1: do we you know, do we got a case right
Speaker 1: here to go challenge it because you had time, You
Speaker 1: had time to do so. But whatever, you don't challenge it.
Speaker 1: Whatever you decided to go for it. My big issue
Speaker 1: is the same thing you had an issue with. It's
Speaker 1: it's it's it's less than the yard. It's less than
Speaker 1: a yard. Ezekiel Ellett had been running that thing the
Speaker 1: entire afternoon. They couldn't handle Ezekiel Elliott out there. He
Speaker 1: was pounding these guys. So you got a ninety million
Speaker 1: dollars back in the backfield. Your offensive line has been
Speaker 1: doing pretty decent, you know up to that point in
Speaker 1: the game. Just turn around a hand the ball off, please,
Speaker 1: And it's not like you got Dak Prescott out there.
Speaker 1: So I don't understanding the whole You know, it was
Speaker 1: a boot right, it was a bootleg. What are we
Speaker 1: doing putting couple of rush on the move? I mean,
Speaker 1: what is that accomplished out there? If you're gonna go
Speaker 1: for it? There's only one option to do it. You
Speaker 1: give it hands, You get the ball to Ezekiel Elliott
Speaker 1: and let him get that one inch for your ten
Speaker 1: inches whatever it was, and then you go about today.
Speaker 1: But to decide to go for it and hit you
Speaker 1: with the bootleg and it just didn't make sense to
Speaker 1: be It reminded me of that play was that last year.
Speaker 1: It was like fourth and one and we just had
Speaker 1: to throw a five yard hitch to to ce Lamb
Speaker 1: on the outside. It was just things like this are
Speaker 1: just it's just it's what It's what teams, bad teams
Speaker 1: do in games. That's how they lose gags. But it
Speaker 1: was an inch and you give it to that it
Speaker 1: is we need all around it. You put it look
Speaker 1: over there, you're gonna see a guy. They don't go
Speaker 1: that inch. But why why I put it in Cooper
Speaker 1: rush his hands? I don't know at that point. No,
Speaker 1: I can't do it for you. I'm old, I've lost
Speaker 1: all my money. No, it's hard. That was that was
Speaker 1: a hard way. That was a hard way to go.
Speaker 1: Uh And I think getting cute in that situation where
Speaker 1: like you didn't you didn't have to um, but it
Speaker 1: was like man, it was a build up to more
Speaker 1: of I saw Kellen Moore do more of that as
Speaker 1: the game went along, and I kept as I watched
Speaker 1: it again and again, I think that the Philadelphia Eagle defense,
Speaker 1: they were loading the box so much against Cooper Rush
Speaker 1: and daring him. They dared him to throw. Believe in
Speaker 1: the secondary, let me go back into there to the Okay,
Speaker 1: so it becomes fourth down. And Mike spoke about after
Speaker 1: the game they were turbo. So when you said they
Speaker 1: had time, they didn't really have time because he was like,
Speaker 1: let's get up on the ball. So you were trying to,
Speaker 1: you know, you're trying to kind of surprise them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you didn't give yourself time to just hey, somebody
Speaker 1: checked the booth. You know, let's take our time to
Speaker 1: the clock room. Somebody tell me, did he get it?
Speaker 1: Did he not get it? So when you went turbo,
Speaker 1: you even eliminated that because what you needed from what
Speaker 1: it sounds like it's somebody to say, hey, somebody who
Speaker 1: buzzed down Mike throw it challenges. When you go turbo
Speaker 1: like that, you take that away from you. So there's
Speaker 1: there's more criticism from him on that, and it's it's legitimate.
Speaker 1: In my opinion, it's legitimate because this is what this
Speaker 1: is why you're paid the big bucks to make sure
Speaker 1: that happens. What is October October sixteen. Okay, so now
Speaker 1: it's October twent so October sixteenth. Let's hope you see this.
Speaker 1: These guys, Michael was talking about self scout. You got
Speaker 1: self scout this and then you know come December January
Speaker 1: that something like this doesn't happen again, because it was
Speaker 1: definitely it was. It was. It helped, it helped them
Speaker 1: continue the momentum. And just your coach can't Greg Pop
Speaker 1: just always says a coach can't be the reason why
Speaker 1: you know you got you. You put your guys in
Speaker 1: a bad spot. He put his team in a bad spot.
Speaker 1: It's it's frustrating. One are many frustrating things on the night.
Speaker 1: One of many frustrating things on the night for the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: But also I look at this and say, okay, these
Speaker 1: guys had the ability to go back, look at this
Speaker 1: fielding and say, okay, this is this is what you
Speaker 1: can't have to go be a team like the Eagles.
Speaker 1: Your coach can't not be on his game. Can't you
Speaker 1: have three turnovers. Can't be out here guessing and getting fooled.
Speaker 1: This is a part of it. I had. I had
Speaker 1: another thing, man that y'all may want to check out. Man,
Speaker 1: I don't know if Michael Gallup is one percent healthy. Um.
Speaker 1: This game really looked. I saw some things from Michael
Speaker 1: Gallup that I hadn't like he was. He was coming
Speaker 1: out of his routes a little bit earlier on that one.
Speaker 1: Like every time they went to Michael Gallop he was
Speaker 1: either tipped or intercepted. The times he had seven targets
Speaker 1: for the game, he only caught two balls. But that's
Speaker 1: something to monitor. I know, we we want to get,
Speaker 1: you know, Michael Gallop back involved in the offense, but
Speaker 1: sometimes to his own demise. Right now, it just it
Speaker 1: just feels like last night. I don't want to say
Speaker 1: lacks of days ago. You just didn't look like yourself. Man,
Speaker 1: This is what I raised my hand for. I hear
Speaker 1: your point. But this is the other point. I talked
Speaker 1: to Rody Harrison about about this going into the matchup.
Speaker 1: We were talking about this, said Rydey, I think their
Speaker 1: corners are better right now than our receivers. Oh, without
Speaker 1: a doubt. That's what I'm like, give if you tailor
Speaker 1: tape here, give me Philadelphia. They played last night, they
Speaker 1: did they top five secondary last night. They played really
Speaker 1: good last night. And this is the growth, this is
Speaker 1: the growth mindset. Hey, guys, you know what you put out,
Speaker 1: that's not gonna cut it. Guys, think seven, you meet it.
Speaker 1: If you want to go to them, that's not gonna
Speaker 1: cut it. You gotta be better. Because it wasn't only
Speaker 1: gal about there that was getting clamped up. I mean
Speaker 1: across the board. Philadelphia secondary clamped down on these receivers.
Speaker 1: There was no separation, talk about talk about the percentage
Speaker 1: of man versus zone that you recognized in the game.
Speaker 1: Seen a lot of man. I've seen a lot of
Speaker 1: land too, and they had low rat plays. So so
Speaker 1: let's let's let's let's dissect that. You as a secondary guy, okay,
Speaker 1: knowing that if you are a quote unquote number one,
Speaker 1: number two receiver in the league, you gotta beat man coverage.
Speaker 1: You gotta beat man coverage. This is what this is
Speaker 1: all about. Have we not been saying this about Ceedee Lamb,
Speaker 1: I don't care look even on the play where and
Speaker 1: people are on him about the interception? Uh, saying that,
Speaker 1: old man, you should have you should have came back
Speaker 1: to the ball, try at least knock it down. I
Speaker 1: think that's the little nuance thing that separates number one
Speaker 1: receivers from the rest of the league, those little small things. Yes,
Speaker 1: he won the route. He and I would have been
Speaker 1: pissed off too, dog, I won the route. That was
Speaker 1: a house call. Only hit my head on the gold post.
Speaker 1: All right, But the ball is underthrown, and you know
Speaker 1: that this guy's gonna he's gonna come in and accept it.
Speaker 1: At least trying knock the ball down or at least
Speaker 1: be pursuing him to make the tackle. That's I think
Speaker 1: those are the small thing. Maybe maturity you've mentioned that before.
Speaker 1: Maybe that has something to do with it. But when
Speaker 1: I look at when I looked at Michael Gallup last night,
Speaker 1: it was just cutting off routes too soon, or the
Speaker 1: way that he was running. Maybe he didn't think he
Speaker 1: was getting the ball. I don't know. It's a pass play,
Speaker 1: so you would think that he would be prepared it
Speaker 1: just that's not the same thirteen that I'm used to.
Speaker 1: And I don't know, like if anybody else is looking
Speaker 1: at the table and gonna damn it's Mike Gallop, all right.
Speaker 1: You know, I just saw he was. He was targeted
Speaker 1: seven times, he only caught two balls. And so I'm
Speaker 1: not saying that their dvs are garbage, but I am saying,
Speaker 1: if you got man to man and you are an
Speaker 1: NFL wide receiver that's being paid handsomely, you gotta win.
Speaker 1: You gotta win those routes. And once again the body
Speaker 1: language showed itself. Eighty eight. Yeah, when things ain't going right,
Speaker 1: oh man, here we just yeah, you don't put your
Speaker 1: quarterback under the under the microscope like that. But when
Speaker 1: you talk about this secondary from the Eagles, with the
Speaker 1: addition of Gardner Johnson, the guy that got from the
Speaker 1: Saints two picks last night, James Bradberry, there's there's no
Speaker 1: glaring weaknesses in the secondary. And you know, going into
Speaker 1: the thing, I thought the ground game is where you're
Speaker 1: gonna have to attack these guys, and the Cowboys did
Speaker 1: for the most part. They ain't handled. You had one
Speaker 1: thirty six one the ground on exactly something like that,
Speaker 1: thirty four average one thirty five point two yards. But
Speaker 1: if you're number one receiver, if you eighty eight, you
Speaker 1: gotta win on some of these things. This was what coverage?
Speaker 1: What is the film session like after something like that?
Speaker 1: If it was Garrett, he had a laser pointer around,
Speaker 1: he gonna circled. We gotta win this, here's Aba, this
Speaker 1: is where we gotta win out here to do what
Speaker 1: your commercials with Legends hadn't done anything yet. Here he
Speaker 1: is sending that football. Look at you getting clamped up
Speaker 1: and all the eager, like you red lobster, and you
Speaker 1: gonna do this? You ain't your number one? You say
Speaker 1: you re right? Aba? Look at this eating I mean
Speaker 1: that film sensing like that. I mean it should be dude,
Speaker 1: this to show if you're if you're the coaching staff man,
Speaker 1: what a great opportunity here all right, guys were feeling
Speaker 1: good that now we got if we want to go
Speaker 1: where we want to go, you got to be better
Speaker 1: than this. Yeah, I mean personally seeing this, Lions, the
Speaker 1: Lions in trouble. Lions should be in trouble. If you
Speaker 1: had watching this and you and they're calling you a gallup,
Speaker 1: where are you at here? I mean, there's there's so
Speaker 1: many things they could point to. Just this is no guys, guys,
Speaker 1: This single win, right, Guys, This is not gonna win game.
Speaker 1: This is not gonna win any championship. Guys, we're gonna
Speaker 1: be home in January real fast. Just like this. Guys
Speaker 1: can't win, can't defend me. I mean this is to me,
Speaker 1: if you're the coaching staff, this is an excellent opportunity
Speaker 1: to really just put it on guys about getting out
Speaker 1: here and getting better. This wasn't Cincinnati, it wasn't Ram,
Speaker 1: it wasn't the Rams, wasn't a compromise offense. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's a whole lot of places where you can go,
Speaker 1: coople what you're doing. Why is this ball right here?
Speaker 1: You know they out here like like Justice League got here.
Speaker 1: This just yeah, yeah, why are you throwing the ball out?
Speaker 1: I mean there's so many There are just so many
Speaker 1: opportunities where the Cowboys look at this and go get better.
Speaker 1: The Eagles were ready to go. They played their butts off.
Speaker 1: Cowboys chopped themselves and hurting Nick keep and say today
Speaker 1: I want to five three. The fans like, uh, the
Speaker 1: Eagles beat the Cowboys and the Cowboys beat the Cowboys yesterday.
Speaker 1: It's like two losses and that's gonna happen, right and
Speaker 1: it season. It's gonna you're not gonna play seventeen perfect games.
Speaker 1: You're gonna look at one like, man, wooo, we didn't
Speaker 1: do well there, and it happened. It's hard. It's hard
Speaker 1: enough beating beating ourselves and beating somebody else. And so
Speaker 1: we gave a lot of way. We left a lot
Speaker 1: of left a lot of yards on the field. And
Speaker 1: they're gonna come back today when they watched the film
Speaker 1: and they've probably already seen it that look, they beat themselves.
Speaker 1: The crazy penalties they beat themselves. We cannot be you know,
Speaker 1: as much as we beg for penalties, we cannot beg
Speaker 1: for penalties. You know. We can't beg for a rough
Speaker 1: in the pastor yes, rough in the pastor was one
Speaker 1: thing last week, it's another thing this week. It's a
Speaker 1: different thing in the league. So I mean, it just
Speaker 1: don't happen for us, you know, if it happened for
Speaker 1: somebody else, I mean, And I just want to make
Speaker 1: my final point on Ezekiel Elliott because I thought that
Speaker 1: this was a game that Zeke lived up to it.
Speaker 1: You know, he's people are asking the question of how
Speaker 1: does he feel about the rotation between him and Tony
Speaker 1: Poller and I think that he's handled it with a
Speaker 1: lot of grace, being the you know, the kind of
Speaker 1: career that he has. He's going over ten thousand yards
Speaker 1: from scrimmage, ranking him amongst some of the best running
Speaker 1: backs to come through the Dallas Cowboys. Emi Smith Tony
Speaker 1: Dark said, I mean, that's that's the kind of presence
Speaker 1: you want to be in, right, But last night I
Speaker 1: thought that not only did we need him as a runner,
Speaker 1: we needed him as our extra swing tackle. And so
Speaker 1: it comes in and he handles those he handles those
Speaker 1: roles and he doesn't complain about it. But then on
Speaker 1: that one that touchdown, I mean to me, that was
Speaker 1: I'm like, it's zek if you have that in your
Speaker 1: bag and we can we can benefit from that in
Speaker 1: November and December. Man, we're gonna be working with Chriscoe.
Speaker 1: All right, let's hit a break here, our last break.
Speaker 1: Um Man. I'm just not where a whole lot of
Speaker 1: other people are down in the dumps because number four,
Speaker 1: we're spinning the ball before talking about it. Let's die,
Speaker 1: Let's dive into that next with heck Ma Harrison Bury Church.

Speaker 1: This is players launch, buy toasty toes now, it's what
Speaker 1: will be okay? What was took the loss in Philadelphia?
Speaker 1: Your four and two football team? This should have been
Speaker 1: Cooper Russia's final start. Dak Prescott warming up before the game,
Speaker 1: also taking snaps from under center. Um, I expect number
Speaker 1: four to be back. Mike McCarthy will talk today at
Speaker 1: four pm right here at the Star about the plan
Speaker 1: for Dak Prescott. But I will be shocked if we
Speaker 1: don't see him under center against Detroit, and Dak said
Speaker 1: his plan is to play this week, So guys for
Speaker 1: coming back. Heck, now, you know how I feel about Dak.
Speaker 1: I've been telling you from the same front. Hey boy,
Speaker 1: I'm with Dak whatever he do. But My question is,
Speaker 1: if Dak was doing it like that on the field
Speaker 1: before the game, why the hell didn't he play? What
Speaker 1: difference is another six day is gonna make for his thumb? Okay,
Speaker 1: what was the big deal? He was out there throwing
Speaker 1: the the way that he was. I saw it, You
Speaker 1: saw it, everybody around saw it, all the swordness everything.
Speaker 1: Because if our best shot last night, we needed that
Speaker 1: to be able to complete some of those throws. We
Speaker 1: needed a different aspect of our defense because Philly came
Speaker 1: in there with the plan for Cooper Rush, and they
Speaker 1: had Cooper Rush see in doubles of everything out there,
Speaker 1: and you just said, all he was looking at was man.
Speaker 1: So what the hell was he looking at? If all
Speaker 1: he was seeing was man? Was guys, it's not getting open.
Speaker 1: It was hinder Shot and Ferguson, I mean, these other guys,
Speaker 1: Noah Brown his favorite talking I got asking myself the
Speaker 1: first quarter, one else nor Brown that, and then finally
Speaker 1: Noah Brown gets in on the act. If that's all
Speaker 1: I'm saying, whatever the I don't want to call a gamesmanship.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was just hey, we're gonna
Speaker 1: get you one more star, just to see if you're
Speaker 1: gonna ride the hot hand. But he told you what
Speaker 1: he's saying. Week he said, I need to see Mike
Speaker 1: McCarthy said, I need to see a full week of practice.
Speaker 1: And he said last week he's still in the rehabilitation face.
Speaker 1: So come come this week. I expect Mike McCarthy. I'm
Speaker 1: just listening to his words. I'm going by what he said.
Speaker 1: I expect him that before week of practice to be ready.
Speaker 1: You're the head coach. You're the head coach of the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. You're standing in the tunnel and you see
Speaker 1: your forty million dollars quarterback out there singing it the
Speaker 1: way Dak was, what's your thoughts it's October sixth My
Speaker 1: thought is, it's October sixteenth. I want to make sure
Speaker 1: that when he's out there that he can stay out there.
Speaker 1: So we had a plan. We'll go stick with the
Speaker 1: plan and let Cooper rush go on out here and
Speaker 1: get one more in. I don't have a problem with that.
Speaker 1: I don't Could Dak have made a difference last night.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of areas you could say he could,
Speaker 1: but I had no issues with I had no issues
Speaker 1: with this was the plan. This is what we want
Speaker 1: to do. I don't risk out way to reward though,
Speaker 1: Like if you play him and he gets hurt and
Speaker 1: you off for the rest of it, I mean, you
Speaker 1: ain't practice one. We're gonna go o what if you're off?
Speaker 1: I mean we haven't seen him do it out here
Speaker 1: where he needs to do it, in a full game,
Speaker 1: in a in a practice setting, the way Mike McCarthy said,
Speaker 1: I got no issues with that. I don't. I'm not
Speaker 1: looking at that saying, man, if four played, they would
Speaker 1: have won. I don't want to say that. Why don't
Speaker 1: you want to say that, because then we're out there
Speaker 1: with what they had, and then they with what they had,
Speaker 1: they shot themselves in the foot. Barry. I'm not calling
Speaker 1: you a quarterback ficionado or nothing like that. But if
Speaker 1: you are a coach and you see your start, your
Speaker 1: forty million dollars quarterback that you know is the man
Speaker 1: who's gonna get you over the hump out there throwing,
Speaker 1: and you had him all week and you know what
Speaker 1: he's capable of game time ready, and you do October
Speaker 1: and October you don't play. You don't play him, knock.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think that you know the I
Speaker 1: don't think it's you know, the risk out of ways?
Speaker 1: What's the what's the river water? Playing him this Sunday?
Speaker 1: You go, he gonna gainst a less of defense? He not,
Speaker 1: he had had the practice time, he's off. That's his job.
Speaker 1: You went out there with the whole thing wrapped the
Speaker 1: rep I'm playing for a contract, Jay, Baby, this man?
Speaker 1: What this man do? This is what he do? Or living?
Speaker 1: What are we talking about? Man? We're gonna sat opponent
Speaker 1: ship what? Okay, we're gonna see this week. We're gonna
Speaker 1: see him. We needed him yesterday. We needed that yesterday. Okay,
Speaker 1: are we shut if he's in there today? On that
Speaker 1: read option? On that readoption, did you see how Philly
Speaker 1: whole defense with down on that? We know what you're
Speaker 1: not about to do? What? But if they had that
Speaker 1: out there, you still think Eagles would have reacted the
Speaker 1: same way. I don't think they load the box up
Speaker 1: and say I double a triple dog Dare you to
Speaker 1: make that throw out there? Yes, they would have done
Speaker 1: some things differently, but most of them. I don't. They
Speaker 1: had a plan going in here. I don't have an
Speaker 1: issue with the plan. And you know what they've earned
Speaker 1: the right with the way Cooper Rush has played and
Speaker 1: the way they've turned things around since Tampa Bay, that
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy's earned the right to say, this is the plan,
Speaker 1: what we want to do, and let him go do it.
Speaker 1: So everything, let me just be clear, everything that Cooper
Speaker 1: Rush has done. I think ideally every football team in
Speaker 1: the NFL wants for their backup quarterback to be capable
Speaker 1: of if our main guy goes down. We want you
Speaker 1: to be able to win four straight games. That's ideal,
Speaker 1: But the reality is if your backup is in, everybody
Speaker 1: looks at it as your season is over. Right. This
Speaker 1: guy has come right, this guy has come in, he
Speaker 1: is he is held up, He's done something kept you
Speaker 1: in contention. Even right now as we're sitting there third,
Speaker 1: I think we feel like we've gotten away with something
Speaker 1: because Cooper Russia has been so feat being able to
Speaker 1: get it done one hundred and two yards. He saw
Speaker 1: him for one hundred and two yards. And our defense
Speaker 1: is still that good, and we knew that if our
Speaker 1: defense just did not have that lights out game, he
Speaker 1: would struggle. We had it yesterday. Guess who we needed.
Speaker 1: We need it for. That's what we need it might
Speaker 1: hit you with it. It's only he ain't ready yet.
Speaker 1: He ain't ready. I had a plan and sucking the plan.
Speaker 1: So far the plan been. The plan has been good
Speaker 1: so far. I can't I can't argue by the way
Speaker 1: your head coach yesterday gonna get on TV to about
Speaker 1: fly Eagles fly. I mean, man, all I thought it
Speaker 1: was that line in the under Undercover that I'm sorry
Speaker 1: we're out of Dicky's he said, we're all sold sold
Speaker 1: said the Eagles were gonna win, right they them with
Speaker 1: the fly. Man, Now you hit clam come JJ did
Speaker 1: that he did? Man? I mean that's what you do
Speaker 1: when you when you're part of the media. Man, you
Speaker 1: you switched and he switched. He did that. You know, hey,
Speaker 1: you know he was right. You know that extra he
Speaker 1: had to put the extra. He did some sauce, you know,
Speaker 1: like he stuck like hit you what time? I mean,
Speaker 1: you trying to claim Cooper Russia on the during the program,
Speaker 1: you know, trying to walk and talk with Zach all that,
Speaker 1: using all your connections. Look at yourself in right then
Speaker 1: you gonna fly fly? Okay? Man, look at this, Look
Speaker 1: at this dude, this this guy that ain't how you
Speaker 1: said it, but I know I know what you said. Yo,
Speaker 1: he went. Everybody else was those the media said it too? Yeah,
Speaker 1: they all said it too. All right, Uh, let's ride
Speaker 1: Russell Russell Wilson in action tonight. Let's pick our Monday
Speaker 1: night football game. He's gonna get it. Dub Denver is
Speaker 1: at the LA Charges. Chargers are a four and a
Speaker 1: half point favorite. I'm gonna go first. Let's right, gonna
Speaker 1: in trouble. Give me twenty six twenty one Charges win.
Speaker 1: You know I'm riding within. I know you didn't heard
Speaker 1: best young quarterback in the game twenty eight twenty charges. Man.
