We got 48 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: an hour on this Christmas Eve to talk about the 49 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 1: division title, the victory Cowboys twenty seven bucks twenty was 50 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 1: that score again? Oh? This is the first time all 51 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: year he's been right about anything, So now we have 52 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: to like know about it. Go ahead, what did you 53 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: do that was so special? Yesterday? He called the games, 54 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: I called it, he called the score, Yeah, exactly. You 55 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: know the last time I got one right when nineteen 56 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: ninety one, when the Cowboys beat the Redskins twenty four 57 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: twenty one at the Redskins to ruin their undefeated season 58 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: at that score right on the button. Yeah, So twice 59 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: in twenty seven years, that's pretty good. That's impressive. Hun 60 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: Nate Man last night he was going crazy. I think 61 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: he wanted to score to be twenty six. I had 62 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: twenty six twenty and he's like mister Field, he didn't 63 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: want him to hit that last time. I didn't want 64 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: to it at twenty six twenty on the gut feelings, 65 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: you are taking our season, gut feeling title eleven and 66 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: four on the gut feelings. By the way, I'm impressed 67 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: by that. I got second. Yeah, all right, let's break 68 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: the game down first. I got some questions for you 69 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: guys coming up, not just about the game but about 70 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: going forward here. But before we get that, your initial 71 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: impressions of what they did yesterday to clinch the title 72 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: and take care of business and win it at home. 73 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: We'll start with Nate, Cowboys took the ease. Thank you. 74 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: That is pretty simple. Pretty simple, man. I'm echo whatever 75 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: Brian saying. No, I don't do that, because I'm gonna 76 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: echo what Mickey Spagnola said all year long. This offensive 77 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: line had to play better when pass protection, and the 78 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: fact that they went into this game, I felt like 79 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: that that the Tampa Bay could present problems with their 80 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: edge rushers that could present some problems inside to give 81 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: up the one sack, and it really that was and 82 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: when you go back and watch it. Boy. If Dak 83 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: just steps up, he's got Cole Beasley laid on the break, 84 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: you know, I mean he's going to find a way 85 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: to you know, if he just step up, just step 86 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: up in the pocket. I mean it was clean up front, 87 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: and he spun right into the sack. The only thing 88 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: that he could have done to hurt Suaphilo he did. 89 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: Suafilo was struggling a little bit, but he was going 90 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 1: to push this guy up the field, and that was 91 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: Vita Vea. And man, if he just would have stayed 92 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: and just climbed a little forward and then found Beasley 93 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: over on the side there, it would have been a nice, 94 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: pretty play. Offensive line I thought did a great job 95 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: against a defensive line that I felt like going into 96 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: this game could have present had some problems. They held 97 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: him in check, ran the ball was well enough that 98 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: they needed to and so give the We've been on 99 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: this offensive line a lot, and I thought last night though, 100 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: or yesterday afternoon, they won. The reasons why you guys 101 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: won this game, Mick I thought two things. One very 102 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: encouraging that the defense stepped up made plays like they 103 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: have been all season long. Short of the Colts game, 104 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: and then the second thing going forward. And I don't 105 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: know if it's going forward this year or next year, 106 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: but and this is kind of what I'm writing about 107 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: in my column for today. The amount of young guys 108 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: that made critical plays for them to win this game, 109 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: I think is encouraging going forward. I've been talking all 110 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: year about how young this team was, and nobody really 111 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: wanted to admit it or agree with it. Randy Gregory, 112 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: second year player. I don't need to tell you what 113 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: he did in the game, right, Probably the defensive star 114 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: of the game. Rookie Michael Gallup catches a touchdown pass 115 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: to kind of create the separation in this game. Layton Vanderish, rookie, 116 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: single game high fifteen tackles And oh, by the way, Bucks, 117 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: you picked the wrong guy to kick the on side 118 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: kick too, because the guy with the best hands fielded 119 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: the ball and put the game away. And they tried 120 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: the old switchero They did their side yeah, and didn't 121 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: fool anybody. First year guy Antoine Woods makes a tackle 122 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: on the goal line to stop the first down and 123 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: turn the ball over the Cowboys on fourth down. Jalen 124 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: smith scoop and score second year player and as I 125 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: told him after the game, I said, you think anybody 126 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: else will question your knee after this? And he goes, 127 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: would you do me a favor and just tweet that out? 128 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: Just tweet it because no one was catching up with 129 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: this dude running down the field and the only person 130 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,799 Speaker 1: that was with him was DeMarcus Lawrence. He had an 131 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: escort the entire way. And oh, by the way, Brett 132 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: maher first year kicker. I know he's kicked in the CFL, 133 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: but this is his first year in the NFL. Hits 134 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: his two field goals, one from fifty nine yards out, 135 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: and if you just look at the amount of young 136 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: guys that were starting on defense in this game, I 137 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: think it bodes well for this team going forward, no 138 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: matter what happens in the playoffs. I'd say Alazrael Man 139 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: should agree with Mickey and not with me. You know, 140 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: I feel this way right here, you know, just for 141 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: him to pick themselves up as a team, do what 142 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: idea yesterday to go out and earn the NFC East. 143 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: You know, I'm just proud of man. I'm proud of uh. 144 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: You know, he said this all night the other Nightmake 145 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: is mister Jones going out and observing where this division 146 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: will is seven to eight games ago and saying we're 147 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: in this in May. The moves and I don't even 148 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: the trading for Cooper, but allowing Jason Garrett too. Hey, 149 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: you know what, coach, thank you for what you've given us, 150 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: but we're going a different route. Brought Colombo in, Yeah, 151 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: brought huss and hawking. All of this happens because you 152 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: have an owner slash GM that's saying, hey, okay, this letter, 153 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: it happened, and broad us talking about that great last night. Yeah, 154 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: I mean I said it a few weeks ago. It 155 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: looked like nine wins could get this thing, and it did. 156 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know who would have thought they 157 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 1: would have clinched this thing with a week to go, 158 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: sitting at five and to Mickey's point, a young football team. 159 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: Really most people counted them out mid season. I mean, 160 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: what are the odds that you're gonna make a run. 161 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: Never have had it happened. They've never started three and 162 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: five and made the playoffs. Yeah, now, they didn't have 163 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper first half of the season, but it's not 164 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: just that move. Nate mentioned the offensive line coach change, 165 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: Colombo's you know brought a different attitude. I don't think 166 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: there's any question about that. Can I name a couple 167 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 1: other young guys that I thought stepped up absolutely, Malie 168 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: Collins and Antoine Woods in the middle of the defensive line, 169 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: especially All Stars, especially with Tyrone Crawford going down on 170 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: the second play test results negative though on his neck 171 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: sounds encouraging that he's gonna be fine. Um, but those 172 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: guys stepped up, and the hot boys, I think they 173 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: atoned for last week when they were just it was 174 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: just out of character. The way they played against Indianapolis 175 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: really team wide. Hey, even Taco Charlton had five tackles. Yeah, 176 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: he played very well in that game, and you know, 177 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: and made a nice play on a tackle for lost 178 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: kind of made it to Marcus Lawrence move where he's 179 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: able to dip his shoulder and get underneath that Donovan 180 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 1: Smith the tackle and kind of work down the line 181 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: of scrimmage on a redirection. So you know, the the 182 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: idea of you know, earn Earn, Earn your jersey for 183 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: the week is working with him. I mean that's that 184 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: was a very positive sign and hopefully, you know, he's 185 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: going to get a lot of chances to play this 186 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: week too, you know, against the Giants, and hopefully he 187 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: can continue to build on it, and you can when 188 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: you get him in the playoffs that he can make 189 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: some plays and be a good part of the rotation 190 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: with what they what they they thrive on a rotation 191 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: and that's what they need and they will they will, 192 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 1: and they will need everybody in the playoffs because if 193 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: you gonna put a team on your defensive back, that 194 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: means our offensive line has to give great protection for 195 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: the running pass and eat up a lot of clocks 196 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: so these guys can stay healthy and fresh. Because we 197 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: all said we challenge his defense. Oh well they pretty good. 198 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: But you know, can they continue to stop to run? 199 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: They continue to stop and run. Oh well, they need 200 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 1: to get a few turnovers. Next thing, you know, turnovers 201 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: are coming and uh the last to complete it was 202 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: uh turnover with a return for six. Yeah that that 203 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: was a nice man. And once these dudes are like 204 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: piranhas now well he stopped. It was interesting in this 205 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: game yesterday is you know the beating that we talked 206 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: about overall that they took against the Colts and they 207 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: had to play a lot of snaps yesterday. Yes Cowboys 208 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: only ran fifty offensive plays and yeah, and they had 209 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: to face eighty snaps thirty five minutes. So yeah, that 210 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: they had eighty offensive snaps when you turn the ball 211 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 1: out like that. Yeah, and basically they had to drive 212 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: it back to back drives, right, and so yeah, it 213 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: was that's a that's a gut check game. You'd lose 214 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,479 Speaker 1: Crawford very early in that game. Now, Randy Gregory traditionally 215 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: doesn't play, but yeah, a whole lot the next note, 216 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: he's in there and Tacos in there. I mean, they 217 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: didn't have they didn't have the normal defensive tackle rotation 218 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: that they could do with Crawford as well. So some 219 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: guys after what they had to go through last week 220 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: and then turn around and play this week with so 221 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: much on the line for them, I mean that that 222 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: you know that that worked out just fine because if 223 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: you look and saw it, you saw what happened when 224 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, I mean that was that was crazy. And 225 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: then to think that if you lose this game, that 226 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: you have to go and win a game at the Giants, 227 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: I mean after what, I mean, it just good, Like 228 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: Nate says, you took care of it. You went out 229 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: there and did it the right way. But a lot 230 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: of guys defensively had to play a lot of snaps 231 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: the last two weeks. You know, again, the physical beating 232 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: they took last week, able to bounce back and play 233 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: very well this week. Do you realize that when they 234 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: returned that was their first return, by the way, for 235 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: a touchdown all season long. Yes, but Tampa Bay had 236 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: the ball for twelve minutes and fifty four seconds straight 237 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: because they were driving. Yeah, you got the fumble return right, 238 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: returned it for a touchdown. They came back, they had 239 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,079 Speaker 1: a drive for five to forty seven and seven h seven. 240 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: The Cowboys didn't touch the ball. Yeah, like twelve minutes. 241 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: They ran twenty two offensive plays in the first half, 242 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: and I was trying to find if that's some kind 243 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: of record, because I can't imagine how often that has 244 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: really ever happened, you know, in games that typically you know, 245 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: you get sixty each yeah or less. Well, that's the reason. 246 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: And then finally when they touched the ball after those 247 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: twelve minutes and fifty three they went three and our 248 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: three and out. Yeah, so they hardly had the ball 249 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: the first half. Like you said, twenty two plays that 250 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: should be a quarter Yeah yeah, so, Uh, I know 251 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna pick on the offense and they weren't perfect, 252 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: but um, they weren't good. See this production I thought 253 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: was better. Like I said, the production was better. The 254 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: protection protection was better that that itself I thought was better. 255 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: As our offensive line played better and as our quarterback 256 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: played better, then then it was stopped. I mean it 257 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: will stopped. It will stop if our line gets better 258 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: and our quarterback get better, and being in unison, it 259 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: will get better. Uh. It's never gonna be ugly until 260 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,199 Speaker 1: we do that. It's a mess. It's never gonna be 261 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: cute until we do that. Uh, that's too much pressure 262 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: going into the playoffs. And yeah, that's that's you're asking 263 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: too much. And we're asking too much of the line 264 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: of the quarterback. We asked you too much of both 265 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: because and I'm talking about defense, but I ain't talking 266 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: about our offense. I'm talking all defense about defense, and 267 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: now I understand that our offensive mind. This is my 268 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: hat soft. This is first year we've had two three 269 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: different guys come in and do what they've done on 270 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: the offense and we still continue to win. But it's 271 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: ugly right now, and we have to fix that if 272 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: we want a serious chance in the playoffs. Nate just 273 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: led me to my first question. Look at that, Look 274 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: at that. I got some I got some tough questions 275 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: for you. That's one of them. Won't we just start there? Okay? 276 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: What's got to improve for them to make a run 277 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: in the playoffs? And I know that. Look I'm staring 278 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: at the helmet right now. They got the Giants in 279 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: week seventeen, but they're looking ahead now. They got a 280 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: game that's very meaningful in a couple of weeks. What's 281 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: got to improve the most? And Nate says, you got 282 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: to help out your defense. Right, the game has to 283 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: be played by the books because you are a defensive 284 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: led a team. What I mean, when the ball is 285 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: kicking inside the twenty or inside the teen, you just 286 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: can't flinging all over the place. You got to think 287 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: about your defense. Well, do we do better with the 288 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: run and putting this thing in third and four or 289 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: third and three or less? We just slinging it like 290 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: we did yesterday and go three and out. We ain't 291 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: built that way yet. I don't. I don't know if 292 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: our offensive line can hold on. But one thing that 293 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: you asked one thing. Our offensive line has to play 294 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: much much better for this team to to excel. You know, 295 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: I was happy to see Cole Beasley get going yesterday. Yeah. 296 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: I think that's something that offensively can help. You know, 297 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: Mickey's been talking about getting Michael Gallop going. I think 298 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: that helped. I don't think there's any magical thing that 299 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: teams are doing. Maury Cooper can't get open against any coverage. 300 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: He really can. I mean, it's you know, it's just 301 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: whether Dak Prescott wants to throw him the ball. But 302 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: I was encouraged, I said, by the protection b I 303 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: was ulso encouraged by Cole Beasley. I think Cole Beasley 304 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: is always a great option here in the playoffs, and 305 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley, you need to use him if you don't 306 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: want to sit there and if you can't run the ball. 307 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: It's as effectively as you want to run the ball. 308 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: You know. And maybe you know, you say, okay, you 309 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: pounded in there with Zeke for three to four yards 310 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: on first down whatever, But maybe some of those first 311 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: down runs turn into play action pass and then you 312 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: get Cole Beasley involved for five to seven yards and 313 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: kind of move the chains that way. So I'm with 314 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: Nate on on the protection. I don't know overall if 315 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: it can improve. I think you'll improve if the health 316 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: of Martin improves. But I think you are what you 317 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: are at the center, and I think you are what 318 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: you're at the left guard right now. And and Tyron Smith. 319 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: And I don't blame Tyron Smith with the holding calls, 320 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: I really don't. He's just a dominant football player and 321 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: he's and it's it's it's a hard thing for him 322 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: because guys have gotten to the point with as soon 323 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: as they get their hands he gets his hands on, 324 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: they just turn and flop. When they turn and act 325 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: like they can't make the play. I think they're in 326 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 1: the NBA. Yeah, And that's that's a that's a point. Yeah. 327 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,959 Speaker 1: I mean, he he's he's in. Jason he locked that 328 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: guy up, he did, and it was it was Jason 329 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: Pierre Paul that he got called on the holding call. 330 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: But Pierre Paul didn't even try and disengage. He was 331 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 1: so locked that guy up. He turned. Don't get me 332 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: started on them, guys, Let's not do that. He turned 333 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: his body in a way that made it look like 334 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: he was being held and it's just it turn smith. 335 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett said this, he's so strong his hands. But 336 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: to Nate's point, the offense, fine, I think they kind 337 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: of are what they are. But you just gotta you're 338 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to figure out the way. You're gonna have 339 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: to play through it. Tampa Bay thought they could cover 340 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: Beasley in man in the slot. Yeah, it didn't work. 341 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: It didn't work. They were they were using their one 342 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: linebacker to kind of shade through to Cooper a little bit, 343 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: and they let that guy in the slot take Beasley. Yep. 344 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: I'll take that match up at me every day every 345 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: day when he gets a free release like that, and 346 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: the linebackers think they got other things to worry about, right, 347 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: Beasley will hurt. You reminded me of the Jacksonville game 348 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: where they said, hey, Tyler Patman, go stick Cole Beasley 349 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 1: four quarters. Yeah, and look what happened. And really, the 350 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: Cowboys it was a it was a wasted drive in 351 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: the second half where he had three four catches, got 352 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: him down in the red zone and then that's the 353 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: one time it did stall. They were better down there yesterday. 354 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: But you know they tried that into round basically to 355 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: Mary Cooper for a s loss. We need to figure 356 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: out though the way that play was blocked. And I 357 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: wrote about last night, I did that guy come free? 358 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: It was they didn't touch him. It was influence. They 359 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: thought Jason Pierre Paul was going to chase the chase 360 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: the thing. You know, Pierre Paul is one of these 361 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 1: guys that but he's so smart, he's seen it all. Yeah, 362 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: so if you're gonna fool somebody, you gotta fool somebody 363 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: that doesn't see that a lot. And the way that 364 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: the way that uh that swings Jarwin, Jarwin reacted, it 365 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 1: was like, oh can I get him? No, I can't 366 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: get him, you know, And I felt like it was 367 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: gonna be they were gonna arc release Jarwin and get 368 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: him up on the safety because he was looking at 369 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: the safety and oh I should have done well. He 370 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: was trying to help the play. And the fact when 371 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: I think it's surprised Jarwin that that Pierre Paul didn't 372 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: react the way he did because using those defensive end, 373 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: especially the ones in that situation, will rush that will 374 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: they'll come down hard inside on the fake to chase 375 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,719 Speaker 1: the play. And in that case, at Pierre Paul he's 376 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: seen it all. That's just a that's just a good 377 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: football player kind of saying not today on my watch. 378 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: But you know what was the good thing and the 379 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: reason they were two of three in the red zone 380 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: because they were two and three and first in goal. Yeah, 381 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: that's where they they created this face. They did different things, 382 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: so that at least is going to give teams something 383 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: to think about when they get down there. You know, 384 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: they saw the reverse, they saw the pass to Gallop. 385 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: It wasn't like, Okay, we're just handing Zeke the ball. Yeah. Uh, 386 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: you know they they don't fight that one though. They'll 387 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: they'll uh, they'll uh. They pulled off the read option. Yeah, 388 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: Dak scores a touchdown. So they were showing different things 389 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: down inside the ten yard line. That's I think. Have 390 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: somebody to think about that. I think I think they're 391 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: trying to make people think about stuff. This is where 392 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: I get into it, and I'll ask you, guys, rob 393 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't mean to ask a question here, but I'll 394 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: ask one. But do they do they not? It's not 395 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: so much the offensive line that do they trust the 396 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: tight ends the block? Do they try? I mean, do 397 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 1: you miss is this what you miss Witten and Hannah 398 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: and guys like that. When you want to really try 399 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: and run the ball, I mean, is it do you 400 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: have to kind of almost get in thirteen personnel and 401 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: run it away? Run it away from the strength because 402 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: you don't feel like that that Schultz and Jarwin and 403 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: Rico are gonna be able to get any kind of pulls. 404 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: Don't even go into three tight ends. Now three wide 405 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 1: receivers and let's go. You know what's amazing. I thought 406 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: they're gonna run quarterback draw too. Everybody's time about how 407 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 1: restrict the space hills down there, and that restriction goes 408 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: for the defense too. Yeah, and and to me, and 409 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: maybe I'm a neanderthal, and that's cool, but I gotta 410 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: admit to everything. But what bothers me is the fact 411 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: that if your offensive line I'm talking about from tackle 412 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: to tackle understands that they cannot miss. I'm a guy 413 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: can get can glade, can glaze off of you, but 414 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: you cannot miss. And if you practice just a little 415 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: bit of hesitation, even you have to catch that guy. 416 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: You got one of the coldest running backs in the backfield. 417 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: And that's what we did as offensive line. Like even 418 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: if we called we got a yard a yard and 419 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: a half and EF we catch this guy. Eventually, you're 420 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: gonna have to reach out to get in it. And 421 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: when you do that, we're gonna finish you. And because 422 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: they are restricted too, it ain't. But so many the 423 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: defenses you can get in. Yeah, who's really got the 424 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: advantage When you really think about offense, the officive line 425 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: do so you can give them all the looks you won't. 426 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you it's called load left or right. 427 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: You put two tight ends in, you put a full 428 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: back in, and you run that thing. 'reuph the butt 429 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: of your guard and me in the center is double 430 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: teening and that linebacker can't win because we're not moving 431 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: off of him until this linebacker the size. I'm telling 432 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: you it would work. It will work because you got 433 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: the running back and you had the fullback. This dude, 434 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: it will work. Just one time it didn't work though, 435 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: Right left. One time we did an open Yeah, we 436 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: did it an open field. That's why it didn't work. 437 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: And you said, you said everybody in the world knew 438 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: we were gonna run that play. Yeah, right, But it's 439 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: a restrictive space. I'm not saying. See I don't believe 440 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: in create activity. I'm serious. I believe in not not 441 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: down there. Yeah, I believe in players. Okay, I believe 442 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: in players. Players make the plays I watched, I went 443 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: back and watch. I went back and watched the highly 444 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: innovative Rams they basted. The run a lot of the 445 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: same plays we run offensively, offensively. So what I'm saying 446 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: to myself, hold on, now, why is it working for 447 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: them and not for us? Well, their office line is 448 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: healthy and intact, and so when you run a jet 449 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 1: sweep with one of their guys, you got to pay 450 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 1: attention because it's gonna be well blocked up front. Oh 451 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: you're talking about the Rams this year. Rams, not not 452 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: those greatist show on turf. Rams, not the greatest show 453 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: on Terifa. They ain't never run, they to right, Yes 454 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: I do, that's why. Okay, Okay, Well let me ask 455 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: you this real quick then, So you ain't gonna apologized 456 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: this time right now, I'm not because I'm interested, Rob. 457 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: You gotta go to break, you gotta be okay, you 458 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: gotta go to break Christmas, keep going, keep going. I'm 459 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: gonna ask you this though, then, do you okay with 460 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: that being said, do you believe in the personnel, the 461 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: personnel of what. Yeah, your offensive line, yes, sir, And 462 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 1: that's if you're saying, if it's not about if it's 463 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 1: not about scheme, then you obviously feel like because y'all 464 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,239 Speaker 1: had a Hall of fame running y'all had a Hall 465 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: of fame offens line. Yeah, but no, but what what's 466 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,959 Speaker 1: what's amazing is if you don't want to put you 467 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: your line, your line out on blast and put them 468 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,199 Speaker 1: on one on one blocks. Yeah, give them, give them, 469 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: give them a chance of double team some people. Okay, 470 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: now forget low left. We got a all pro sitting 471 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: over there right at right guard. Yeah, so let Looney 472 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: come with him. Yeah. You know you gotta got an 473 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: all pro left tackle too. Yeah. So I'm just saying, 474 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: and we ain't trying to even get out there. Yeah, 475 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: we ain't trying to get out there. So you're you're 476 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 1: confident though, in this offensive line? Yeah? Yes, yes, because 477 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 1: that that kills my argument that that that that's easy 478 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 1: to teach, and it ain't. But many things you do 479 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: now if if they load it up, so okay, we 480 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: know you coming here. Yeah, okay, Now your tight ends 481 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: become very very because now you got an option. You 482 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: fake it down in there, so you pull it back 483 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: because ain't nobody Russia now they're trying to stop the run. 484 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: You pull it back there. Any one of these Titans, 485 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: you pick either one. You won't just throw it to 486 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: him now, okay, all right, let's throw it to the 487 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: rookie wide receiver who was in man coverage and beat 488 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: the devil out of that game. But see, this is 489 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: another issue. This is another issue I have.

All right, cool, best move 614 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: this team has made this season. It can be a 615 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 1: higher it could be a trade, it could be a 616 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: position change. Give me something that's right, be so by 617 00:32:55,840 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: it's Marie. So what's why don't we just say other 618 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: than that, other than other than the Marti? Yeah, other 619 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: than I think you could you could alight that one 620 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: actually if you want. Yeah, But I think you know, 621 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: I think, to me, the most most unselfish thing that 622 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: I've seen on this football team, and there's been a 623 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: lot of guys who have been very unselfish. The way 624 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: was what Rod Marinelli has done to allow Chris Rashard 625 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: to be what Chris Rashard can be. Where I was 626 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: going that hire is up there, I think Chris, I 627 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: love you know. The team was three and five, I 628 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: get it, but the defense was playing that, you know, 629 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: the offense was the one that struggled. He didn't trade 630 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: for a pass rusher or a corner or a linebacker. 631 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: He traded for a He traded basically for an offensive 632 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: player to try and help his defense. And I give 633 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: I give Rod Marinelli a ton of credit somebody that 634 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: understands chain of command, military guy, teamwork, camaraderie, you know, 635 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: getting the job done. He could have he could have 636 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: just made Chris Rashard's job miserable, you know, and said, listen, 637 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,239 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do what I want to do. But he 638 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: really hasn't. He's from the word go, he's embraced him 639 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: being here and it's and it's made a difference on 640 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: this defense. Look at the moves they made of moving 641 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: Byron Jones the corner and playing all those young kids 642 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 1: at Mickey just rattled off, you know, that's that's that's 643 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of it is because that's how 644 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: you drafted these guys. But a lot of it has 645 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: to do with a coach stepping up saying, you know what, 646 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,399 Speaker 1: put this guy at corner. See what you're doing. It's 647 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl, you know, I give I give Rod 648 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: Marinelli a lot of credit for this one. That's one 649 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: of the ones that if you say, um, if you 650 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 1: say move him, allowing Christopher Shard to be Christoper Shard 651 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: was my best move. I got twofold twofold babies. Let's 652 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: fold it up, and they're kind of the same. When 653 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: everybody wanted to s can Randy Gregory, Wow, the Cowboys 654 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: stuck with him, tried to bring him along, and now 655 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: suddenly here at the end of the season, it's and 656 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 1: he's got if I I six sacks now for a 657 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: guy that hadn't played football basically in a year, and 658 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: I think you're seeing the talent that he has. And 659 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: last night it was needed. When Crawford went out um 660 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: he ended up playing. He ended up playing fifty three snaps, 661 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: sixty six percent. Childton was forty six naps fifty eight percent. 662 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: So those guys took over for losing. Tyrone Crawford, who 663 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: a lot of the guys on this defense will tell 664 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: you he's the conscience of that defense. He's the leader, 665 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 1: and they were able to win a game without him 666 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: and Sean Lee on the field. So Randy Gregory number one, 667 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: sticking with him and trying to bring him back as 668 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 1: a person. After the game, he really didn't want to talk, 669 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: he said, he did a little bit. When I went 670 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 1: up to him, he goes, I just want to play 671 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: and go home. I said, but you deserve to talk, 672 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 1: and he goes, nah, I'm not all about that. And 673 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: then UH, give give a big hand, uh to talk 674 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: to doctor Dan Cooper for fixing that Jalen Smith knee 675 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: and that the Cowboys. I know they rolled the dice 676 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 1: with it, and sometimes you lose those things. Sure, but 677 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:30,240 Speaker 1: that kid who worked hard to get back to where 678 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,919 Speaker 1: he's at now, and I think those two guys made 679 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 1: a huge difference in the game last night. So I'll 680 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: go there. Tip of the Captain Britt Brown too, Yes, 681 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 1: for the rehab, rehab and everybody a tip of the 682 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: captain Jalen as as Bason Garrett said last night, Hey, 683 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 1: those are lonely days. Were out there rose two guys 684 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: out for an entire year. They were out there by 685 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: themselves a lot when people weren't watching. Jaylen has said 686 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: that Britt is almost like another dad, you know, the 687 00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: way he's just been on him and on him in 688 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: tough love and and and Jalen's his attitude coming back. 689 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: I think he said last night, I never doubted myself 690 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 1: because too many people did so I couldn't afford to. 691 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,760 Speaker 1: And I mean the speed on that sixty nine yard return. 692 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: If there's any question, any question about him being back. 693 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: There were wide receivers chasing him by the way, and 694 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 1: they weren't gaining ground. Who you got, Nate, that's a Mari. 695 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,439 Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no no no no. We're gonna 696 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: leave a Mari to you. Rob, No, no, no no, I 697 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: got another one. Actually, yeah, this is this is for 698 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: the first time and Cowboys, in the last recent four 699 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: or five years, for the first time, we have seen 700 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: what a good scouting department can do as far as 701 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: going out getting young players, as far as going out 702 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: getting pro personnel. Yeah, I'm going back to the offensive line. 703 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: We have Looney, have Sue Fela, We have Cam Fleming, 704 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: who I just ragged. Well, you know how bad I 705 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: talked about no in oxnar Go Bay. Yeah, these guys 706 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: have filled in a pro personnel and what I call 707 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: him Jesus a little. You know, the guys have went 708 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: out and did great things that let this team be 709 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: where it's at. Yeah, you know, they have done it 710 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: many the human law human law me. Wow. Yeah, well 711 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: how about the scouny department, you know, making determination that 712 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 1: with you know, I would have never dreamed working here 713 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 1: that I would seeing Sean Lee be a healthy scratch. Yeah, 714 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have dreamed it. But but by going out 715 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: and getting the guys they had the jail and Smith's 716 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: and that, you know, I mean the fact that they 717 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: trust Joe Thomas, they trust, they trust you know, march Lillard. 718 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: You know, they trust these guys. They let them play man, 719 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,879 Speaker 1: they let him play. We got vander esh draft night 720 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: on the on the board right now on the screen, 721 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: and that was that was my pick. And it kind 722 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: of goes into Mickey's point about all these young guys. 723 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: Just how many home grown guys they've got. Yeah, I 724 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: wasn't a sexy draft pick. I mean linebacker, you know, 725 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,839 Speaker 1: but they had the long term vision of we know 726 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,799 Speaker 1: what's what's wrong with this defense? When Sean is out right? 727 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: And I mean that was just another monster performance from 728 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: Layton Vanderrett yesterday and Jalen Smith as well. Those guys 729 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: have absolutely balled at a level that's a Pro Bowl level, 730 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: even though they didn't get in. Let me say this here, 731 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: boy and brought has brought this to my attention. Man, 732 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 1: did you know this boy cover yesterday like a beast? Jaylen? Yeah? Yeah, 733 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: at first I didn't notice it. May come I'm looking. 734 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: He said, Man, that was a nice cover by Jaylen, 735 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: But you're going back. He had two or three nice covers, 736 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: and that to me, you have to scout these guys. 737 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: You have to do the medical with Britt Brown and 738 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:46,320 Speaker 1: all that. I'm talking about, the whole deal, the medical 739 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: staff they put together with these last two three years. 740 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: And if tackle can come in and prove himself, man, 741 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: what bad player did have? Well, all the players they 742 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 1: have in the Pro Bowl, the f guys were all 743 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,479 Speaker 1: drafted by this organization. And I talked to Will about 744 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,319 Speaker 1: this the other day and he put the credit on 745 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 1: the coaching staff for sure. These guys in the right spot. 746 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: But I mean it's the vision of that front office though. 747 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 1: Start it starts there right right when you were talking 748 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: about covering. The thing that Jalen and vander Esh do 749 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,959 Speaker 1: so well is they may catch the ball underneath. Yeah, 750 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 1: they're going to be right there in your jock. Yeah, 751 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 1: as soon as you catch it. They broke up a 752 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 1: couple passes like that. Their ability to run to the 753 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:34,879 Speaker 1: football after the catch is quite remarkable. I just believe that, 754 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: like Xavier Woods when you building the team, oh man, 755 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: like they trying to trying to do here and it 756 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 1: was ugly year man, that's why you know, office line, 757 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,799 Speaker 1: it's been ugly. But we have never been able to 758 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: in the last two years. Every other year when we 759 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 1: have a bad team, we can't overcome the adversity. A 760 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: coach get him say, hey, I like to appreciate, but 761 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm telling about games where it's just ugly. It is 762 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: flat out Yeah. The next man up works when you 763 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: have players, yes, that are able, and a lot of 764 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: the times that's your skying department disable to find those guys, 765 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 1: and the coaches developed guys too. Look at that play 766 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:16,439 Speaker 1: right down man, it's bad radio man. But they can't 767 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 1: see what we see that, you know what I'm saying. 768 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 1: They can't see that because you know they can't see 769 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 1: that they should be watching watch it right. Yeah, but 770 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 1: that right there was by Vanish at home Human Law. 771 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: That was a great play man, look at it. Yeah, 772 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: those are great plays by like Mick said, like by 773 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: young guys man coming down hill. I mean that I 774 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: don't have them often. For my friend that I answered 775 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: to your own question, I mentioned Layton, Uh and what 776 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: the front office has done with some of these homegrown guys. 777 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 1: Brian mentioned five guys in the Pro Bowl, all draft picks, 778 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 1: all high draft picks, but nevertheless they got them right. Um. 779 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 1: Mark Cooper is a pretty good move though too. When 780 00:41:57,920 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: you're three and five, you make that move and then 781 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 1: they go on this run and he has certainly helped 782 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 1: the offense out giving him You know, that's a big 783 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,839 Speaker 1: that's a big picture move right there. Yeah. I said 784 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: it last night, and I appreciate Nate bringing it up. 785 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones deserves a lot of credit for because nobody 786 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: hates giving up draft picks, especially high draft picks, more 787 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 1: than him, And for him to sit there and say 788 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,560 Speaker 1: I got to do something for my football team. I've 789 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 1: got to do something in this division. He did exactly 790 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: what he needed to do. So that's what you're you know, 791 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: that's what general managers do. They have their good days, 792 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 1: they have their bad days. Jerry's had both. But in 793 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 1: this case he helped his football team. Ah, they just 794 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: needed Hudson Houck back here. Hey, that helped too, and 795 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: that that offensive line shift that Nate mentioned a few 796 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: minutes ago with Colombo, no question about it. And it 797 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 1: gets better though. Yeah, it helps getting Zach Martin back 798 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 1: and see a Filo back healthy the other day yesterday. Actually, 799 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 1: you know, go ahead and just look quickie. We I 800 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 1: hope we don't lose none of these guys. I hope, 801 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,359 Speaker 1: I hope because every team ever you lose thirty five 802 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 1: percent of day players. You don't know, Jones, whether you 803 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 1: don't know whether there's a core player or you know 804 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 1: high it's gonna fake your team or is it just 805 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: a phillying guy. But we got depth. We got depth now, 806 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 1: competitive depth in that that that's hard to get in 807 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,720 Speaker 1: his league today. That's why you just send out send 808 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: out the signal right now about free agency. Don't worry 809 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 1: about free agency. Worry about resigning the guys you got, yeah, 810 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: lest the majority of them, and I hope they had 811 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,760 Speaker 1: that fire bro And you know it starts with Tank. 812 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 1: But you do have Byron for another year under contract. 813 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,359 Speaker 1: You gotta, Mari Cooper. You got to figure it out. 814 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: You got a quarterback, quarterback under contract for one more year. 815 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: But you gotta start thinking down the roads. Beasley as 816 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 1: a free agent, I believe us after the season. Okay, 817 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 1: next question, looking forward to this coming week. I've heard 818 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 1: the answer from Jerry Jones and Jason Garrett, But what 819 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: would you guys do with your starters in week seventeen 820 00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,919 Speaker 1: against the Giants, knowing that you're locked into the number 821 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 1: four seed no matter what happens against the Giants at 822 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,879 Speaker 1: the Meadowlands on Sunday, and knowing and knowing I only 823 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: got forty six guys on game day of it. Yeah, 824 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 1: is a case by case deal. That's that's the only 825 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 1: way you can look at it. Seven years, eight year veteran, 826 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 1: don't get you off. It's a case by case deal. 827 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: My numbers would be four, twenty one, and seventy. That's 828 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,399 Speaker 1: kind of how I would rest that's where I would 829 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,800 Speaker 1: start whole game or whole game, Okay, I'll throw seventy 830 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: seven in there, Okay, anybody that's had something, or in 831 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:40,800 Speaker 1: the case of the quarterback, he's the quarterback out. Yeah, 832 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 1: I think the quarterback plays a quarter. Yeah, go back 833 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 1: to what they did in twenty sixteen. I've played a quarter, right. 834 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:50,920 Speaker 1: I believe this right here. I saw a game with 835 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 1: remember that one time that the clinch in Washington. He 836 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 1: played the starters almost into the fourth quarter with Romo 837 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: and Dez Bryan and those guys. I believe this right here, 838 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: and I call them what you need to call me, 839 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 1: act the Neanderthal. If Dak is in there, everybody that's 840 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,799 Speaker 1: capable of plan needs to be with it, be in 841 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 1: there right right if he plays, That's why I took 842 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 1: him out. Everybody plays one. If you don't play one quarter, 843 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: you know, do you do what you want? But if 844 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: you keep it on a basis individual basis, player by player, 845 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,879 Speaker 1: you'll be all right. You know, Like I say, just 846 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 1: called you. How about ninety thinking about him too, He's 847 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,280 Speaker 1: had a little something this season at times with the shoulder. 848 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 1: Case by case, he's pretty I don't know what you do. 849 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: How how bad is this thing? Nick for number ninety Lawrence, Well, 850 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: he's been playing with that break shoulder. Yeah. Um, you know, 851 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 1: but this might be gaming once to play because Nate Solder, 852 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 1: those guys can't my patch's numbers a little bit. Those 853 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 1: I just I just believe, Yeah, and the reason why 854 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 1: I bring it. You go ahead, Nate, Sorry, I just 855 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 1: believe that it's a case by case basis. And but 856 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 1: you play Sean Lee, No, he plays Vanders or Jay No, no, no, 857 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: you just keep the rotation. No, you keep the rotation. 858 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 1: And then this is Joe Thomas ready? Is is the 859 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:24,240 Speaker 1: Covington ready? Yeah? If these guys are ready? Yeah, Kevington's 860 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 1: been kind of a healthy scratch all year. Yeah, you 861 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 1: let him go, but I'd like to see him play 862 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 1: a half. Here's here's what Jason Garrett said last night. 863 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 1: When asked, he said, if guys are injured, obviously they 864 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 1: aren't going to play. If guys are able to play, 865 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 1: we're gonna play them. We've got an important ball game 866 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 1: in New York next week. And he's I think he's 867 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: speaking to momentum. He's and keeping momentum. But he's got 868 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 1: to say this, so his players don't shut down, right, 869 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:50,240 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to forfeit three days of practice. Yeah, 870 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 1: these are three days of practice. You get to get 871 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 1: ready for the for the playoffs. So you don't tell 872 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 1: anybody Nate Newton, guess what on Wednesday? You're not playing 873 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,480 Speaker 1: on Sunday. Well, then Nate Newton doesn't practice. He ain't trying. 874 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: This is what I this is, this is what I 875 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 1: think this week. Get ready for Seattle. I just Jason 876 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 1: gonna gonna keep his guys going. Yeah, and he may 877 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 1: some shock us all with a half on what you mean, 878 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 1: he may shock because you don't have a veteran team 879 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 1: that knows what do even even when I look at 880 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 1: the Rams, you can shut it down if you won't. 881 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,919 Speaker 1: But your momentumate there. Yeah, you know, you know, like 882 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: like the Saints, she did came back and got that win. 883 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: So if they wasn't saying, hey, hey, you know we 884 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 1: got but we we had two weeks, ugly man, we 885 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: have been winning and this is a lot of stuff 886 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:47,920 Speaker 1: we gotta clean up. So it's a thought. You and 887 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 1: if you think about twenty sixteen that when they only 888 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: played like a quarter, it took the offense a half 889 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 1: to get going against Green Bay. Yeah, the second half 890 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: they started moving, sir, Is that a real thing? Nate? 891 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 1: The rest versus rust And I know the Cowboys don't 892 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,879 Speaker 1: have a buy, but this is an opportunity to rest. 893 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: Guys if you want this week, like he said, number 894 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 1: seventy Martin, Yeah, yeah, you know Elliott would use it 895 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: would help him. Todd Gurley's not gonna play anymore. He's 896 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: gonna win the rushing title. He's up by Yeah, I 897 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:22,839 Speaker 1: just look. Yeah, Todd Gurley is gonna have to have 898 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 1: an incredible game next week for him to do They're 899 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 1: not gonna do that because he got in bad needs 900 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 1: didn't play this pass week. He's up one hundred and 901 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:34,720 Speaker 1: eighty three yards. Yeah, yeah, so I am not playing 902 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: number twenty one. He had twenty three touches again yesterday eighteen. 903 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: Darius Jackson, this is your life. Hey, let's see if 904 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:45,319 Speaker 1: Rod Smith he's a giant killer. He did it last 905 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,799 Speaker 1: year running and receiving. Yeah, why not let those two 906 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 1: guys handle it. Yeah, sailors right here, Connor Williams get 907 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: in there and get a little block and going on, 908 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: I can say mega's forty six guys. You got what 909 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: fifted something in practice. Squad players that you can pick from, 910 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 1: but you can't deplete your team to the point where 911 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 1: Dak is in troublef he plays. Yeah, so if Dak plays, 912 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: and I'm looking for everybody else to play. But if 913 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:17,239 Speaker 1: he don't play, then this or what's what? But uh, 914 00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:19,280 Speaker 1: be honest with me, I'm just worried about my defense. 915 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 1: It's just I want to see I want to see 916 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 1: those guys. I want to see those guys get after 917 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 1: Eli Manning. I watched the little Eli Manning on Saturday. Yeah, 918 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:30,720 Speaker 1: you know when I was here, and he's gotten worse. 919 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:34,640 Speaker 1: He really has. I mean he has, but the team 920 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 1: is playing better. The Giants are playing better. Yeah, but 921 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:41,400 Speaker 1: he but he's Yeah. They were, yeah, but they were, 922 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:43,000 Speaker 1: they were. They were on the course to try and 923 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 1: be eight and eight and they and they That gets 924 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 1: to Tennessee the Barking play. Yeah, they've been playing these 925 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:55,320 Speaker 1: say this right here. Beckham didn't Yeah, Beckham hadn't played. 926 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 1: But let me say this right here. Still, Manny, he's 927 00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 1: the biggest flincher in the world throwing that ball. Yeah, 928 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:04,799 Speaker 1: but let me say this right here, Yes, sir, if 929 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 1: Barkley plays, oh, he'll play. I promise you, if you 930 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: don't want to get hurt, you better not take this 931 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 1: team lightly because this kid knows nothing but to hurt you. Sure, 932 00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:19,960 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna just think about it now. If you 933 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,319 Speaker 1: have it on Barkley, yeah, he gonna punish you. Yeah. 934 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 1: So if you in there as a starter or you 935 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 1: in there, you you better be bringing everything you got 936 00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 1: because man, I've seen this kid do some amazing things 937 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 1: to people, many shaking them out of their boots, are 938 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:41,840 Speaker 1: running slap dead over him. Let's get going, cabin Frasier 939 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:46,359 Speaker 1: and Thompson and those guys. Yeah, y'all seeing this kid. Yes, 940 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,680 Speaker 1: here's my top rated player in the draft last year. 941 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 1: Actually Martin was no, no, yeah, the kid they Quentin Nelson. 942 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 1: Nelson was, but he's right there. He was number two. Yeah. 943 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: One of the thing about the rest, I just thought 944 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,799 Speaker 1: of this this morning. If you're the head coach, you 945 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 1: have to put in the back of your mind you 946 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 1: don't know when you're gonna play next week, but it 947 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: could be Saturday night. Don't they have game Saturday? Yeah? 948 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: I mean there's a possibility that your team is playing 949 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 1: your first playoff game on a short week. Did you 950 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:22,520 Speaker 1: say reps or refs? He said, rest Oh, okay, we're 951 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:24,920 Speaker 1: not talking refs today. We'll let Bill can let you 952 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:26,759 Speaker 1: do that this week coming up, but we're not doing 953 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 1: that today. We all have time. We have too much 954 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 1: to marry Christmas. Re creative referee guilty animal. Yeah, Oh 955 00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 1: I know, man, go ahead, Rob, You're a good point 956 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,319 Speaker 1: to what do you what do you all? I mean? 957 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 1: Is that is that something you have to think about 958 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:45,319 Speaker 1: if you're Jason, that we might be playing you know? Okay, Well, 959 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. This is my thought. This is my thought. 960 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: Fox A is not going to give up the game. 961 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 1: I don't think they will. That's right. Be you're playing 962 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:57,000 Speaker 1: a West Coast team potentially in Seattle, so you're not 963 00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 1: going to be early, you know for TV markets. Yeah, 964 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:02,759 Speaker 1: so I'm kind of thinking you're gonna be the late 965 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,879 Speaker 1: game on Sunday. Okay, that's kind of where I think 966 00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 1: this is going have the option to not give that 967 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 1: game up. Well, NBC is gonna fight like a SOB, 968 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: but usually NBC will go they play the Saturday night games, 969 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 1: they'll play the Saturn game and they'll probably they could 970 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 1: take New England. Then they they hope they hope New 971 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,720 Speaker 1: England gets a game, and then they could it snows 972 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 1: like a you know what, that's what they want. They 973 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,759 Speaker 1: want the cold. They'll take the coldest weather team and 974 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 1: put them out there and say, okay, let's hope for 975 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,919 Speaker 1: a snow game. Well, New England clinched lie yesterday. Yeah, 976 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: but they're but they're but they're not. They're the second 977 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 1: seed right now, right now, behind Kansas. Yeah, so they 978 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:39,879 Speaker 1: went even they might not know, they might not play. 979 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 1: But if Houston, if they were to lose and then 980 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,840 Speaker 1: Houston jump back in, so it might be a thing. 981 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:48,680 Speaker 1: Houston will get a game and traditionally Houston play. The 982 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: last time that Oakland was in the playoffs, I think 983 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 1: the last time that Houston was in the playoffs, they 984 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 1: played the Saturday afternoon game. The Monday Night Crew took 985 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:02,239 Speaker 1: that one, but they played it on a Saturday afternoon. 986 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 1: If I'm right about that, it sounds right. Yeah. Yeah, 987 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 1: So Houston being a Houston being a team that you know, 988 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 1: maybe not a lot of people will watch, they tend 989 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 1: to kind of knock those games out on Saturday, if 990 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's just something to think about. 991 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: I don't know, Ravens. Ravens could be involved here, you know, 992 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: that's those are kind of your Saturday games. Don't worry 993 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 1: about it's alright, yeah, I mean we're at that point, 994 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 1: right they I think the Cowboys. I think the Cowboys 995 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: are gonna play late Sunday a right personally, and just 996 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:39,879 Speaker 1: to recap their two possibilities after this Giants game first 997 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 1: round Seattle, that's the way it is right now, right, 998 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:46,319 Speaker 1: and Minnesota is a possibility as well. And Philly's trying 999 00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: to get the sixth seed at this point. But Philly, 1000 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 1: Philly needs to win in a Minnesota loss and they're in. 1001 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:56,520 Speaker 1: They get they get a Minnesota lost, they're in. But 1002 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 1: as those six seeds, So the Cowboys wouldn't So that 1003 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 1: means they would have to go They would go to 1004 00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:04,680 Speaker 1: Chicago and then Dallas. This is the way Dallas could 1005 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 1: get it if if you think about it, this is 1006 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,279 Speaker 1: the way Dallas if you beat Okay, I'm really going 1007 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 1: way ahead. No, but I know where you're going on 1008 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:13,799 Speaker 1: that rabbit. I'm going get to this. You'll play the 1009 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:18,000 Speaker 1: Rams instead of playing the Saints, you know what I'm saying. 1010 00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,440 Speaker 1: And then you know, you take your chances. What if Okay, 1011 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,320 Speaker 1: what if Philadelphia goes and wins against Chicago, and Chicago 1012 00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 1: that means that they would go and play the Saints. 1013 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 1: Then that would mean you win your game, you would 1014 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 1: have to go to Los Angeles. I'll take my chances 1015 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 1: with the Rams. I really will take my chances with 1016 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 1: the Rams over playing having to go to play a 1017 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 1: game in New Orleans in the divisional round. If you 1018 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,319 Speaker 1: want to say, Okay, you know, you find a way 1019 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:42,080 Speaker 1: to beat the Rams. Now you're you know, maybe you're 1020 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 1: back in New Orleans. Saints probably weren't happy about that. 1021 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 1: Eating No, not at all, trust me, I know, I 1022 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:51,399 Speaker 1: know inside information there. No, they weren't happy all. But 1023 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 1: but that that's kind of where you're at, if you 1024 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: if you really, if you get you know, I think 1025 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,680 Speaker 1: I think Philadelphia has a better chance of beating the 1026 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 1: Bar then Minnesota does. And I think they play this weekend, 1027 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,759 Speaker 1: don't they. Vikings play at the Bears and then they 1028 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 1: have to turn around and do it again. We've seen 1029 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 1: that happen before, right him, Man, see Philly, Philly I 1030 00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:15,759 Speaker 1: think has a better chance of going and beat in Chicago, 1031 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: and then that would mean that they would have to 1032 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 1: go then take on the Saints the first seed. Yeah, 1033 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: Philly's kind of got that look of you don't want 1034 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:27,920 Speaker 1: to play, but but if if you want to knock out, 1035 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: if you want to knock out the Saints, they need 1036 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 1: they need many to win. They need to win win 1037 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 1: in the Minnesota loss. Okay, okay, And so Minnesota play 1038 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:40,000 Speaker 1: the Bears and the Bears. Yeah, okay, all right. Now 1039 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 1: the Bears are in a situation where they're not they're 1040 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 1: they're locked in the third seed, right yeah, yes, and 1041 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 1: they are. They gonna show everything against Minnesota because they 1042 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:50,560 Speaker 1: play them if they if they lose the game, they'll 1043 00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:52,919 Speaker 1: play them again the next week. It's a great if 1044 00:55:52,960 --> 00:56:00,879 Speaker 1: Minnesota beats the Bears. Yeah, Seattle loses, well, Seattle would 1045 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 1: still be the sixth seed. Yeah, that's at it right here. Yeah, 1046 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:07,560 Speaker 1: I'll put that together. I pray to God Backley don't 1047 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:11,840 Speaker 1: play but a quarter. Well, if you're just looking ahead, 1048 00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:15,320 Speaker 1: what's your what's your path? What's your best path? And 1049 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 1: not to happen? Do we all feel like New Orleans 1050 00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 1: is the best team in the conference? Yes, yes, okay, 1051 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 1: especially if they're playing at home. Yeah, avoid Now, Philadelphia 1052 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:26,160 Speaker 1: went to New Orleans and got their you know what 1053 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,879 Speaker 1: handed to them. You know, will that happen again if 1054 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 1: they had together? You know, what's the best way you 1055 00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 1: can You can maybe knock out the Rams. Maybe you 1056 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:39,320 Speaker 1: get Philadelphia to knock off Saint knock off New Orleans. 1057 00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:42,600 Speaker 1: Now you're hosting the NFC championship game. I mean, that's 1058 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,360 Speaker 1: right about that. That's a crazy scenario. But yeah, it's possible. 1059 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 1: I think when Philadelphia has done to these last two weeks. 1060 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:50,359 Speaker 1: Oh but they clearly this quarterback that won the Super 1061 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:56,200 Speaker 1: Bowl for him last year's playing unbelievably. Well, yeah, man, 1062 00:56:56,400 --> 00:57:00,440 Speaker 1: I just beat the Rams, beat the Texans on must 1063 00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:04,440 Speaker 1: win games, have to win games, win your home playoff 1064 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:07,320 Speaker 1: game first, and then I oh, I know, it's it's fun. 1065 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 1: It's fun. Yeah, but just stop Barkley. I don't get 1066 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:13,439 Speaker 1: ran over and hurt by Barkley. Absolutely, I'm not worried 1067 00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 1: about Barkley. I'm really not. I am. I'm not worried 1068 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 1: about this game. I'm worried about the playoff game, all right, 1069 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 1: I'm worried about it. Barkley playing. It doesn't matter, doesn't matter, Yeah, 1070 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, all right. We only got a couple 1071 00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:28,800 Speaker 1: I saw, I saw a guy for Seattle last night. 1072 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 1: You know, the right tackle ran down open field and 1073 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 1: I tried to block somebody that got through a move 1074 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:40,760 Speaker 1: when he twisted. Is That's what I'm saying. Worry about Seattle? Yeah, 1075 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 1: and it could very well be Seattle in a couple 1076 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,280 Speaker 1: of weeks, all right. Nate spoke eloquently about what's got 1077 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: to improve, talk about helping out that defense. Yeah, tell me, guys, 1078 00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 1: Brian Mickey to make a run in this playoffs. What's 1079 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 1: got to improve from what you've seen in the last 1080 00:57:56,120 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Well, for the offense to improve, the 1081 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: offensive line needs to keep playing better, and they're not 1082 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 1: there yet. Can't let the quarterback get sacked the way, 1083 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 1: and I know everybody wants to blame he holds the 1084 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 1: ball too long. You know, I saw Drew Brees getting 1085 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 1: sacked last night. He was holding the ball because he's 1086 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:19,200 Speaker 1: trying to get the diron thing down the field. Right, 1087 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 1: So the people that don't like Dak they grab that, 1088 00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 1: they do. He hangs out the ball too long. All right? Fine, 1089 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 1: chas that I know if he's not wrong, But I'm 1090 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 1: not wrong because I know what people are gonna say. Yeah, 1091 00:58:37,520 --> 00:58:39,640 Speaker 1: guy was twenty of twenty five. I know it was 1092 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 1: only one hundred and sixty one yards. His quarterback rating 1093 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:47,280 Speaker 1: was one oh six one oh six. Okay, so did 1094 00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:49,400 Speaker 1: he miss a throw down the field to the tight 1095 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:53,720 Speaker 1: end to Jarwin. Yeah he did. He went underneath. He's 1096 00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,440 Speaker 1: got to step up and throw that ball. But again, 1097 00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 1: you don't know what he's looking at, what's in front 1098 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 1: of him. But if offensive line protects him, this offense 1099 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:07,280 Speaker 1: isn't bad. They can hurt somebody with the talent they have. 1100 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 1: They got to protect and they got to protect for 1101 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 1: the run. Brian Brown's got the last word? Is this 1102 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 1: just about the line or what they have to prove overall? Overall? What? What? 1103 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 1: What concerns you about this team? What do they need 1104 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:21,640 Speaker 1: to improve to make or run here in a couple 1105 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 1: of weeks. Yeah, I think it's all. It's all about 1106 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: the quarterback and whatever you can do to help this quarterback, 1107 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:31,840 Speaker 1: whether that means the protection, the routes, the play calling, 1108 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:34,800 Speaker 1: whatever you have to do to help him along. He's 1109 00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:36,760 Speaker 1: proven before to you though he could play in a 1110 00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 1: playoff game. Yes, he went toe to toe with Aaron Rodgers, 1111 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 1: you know, and and was no worse for wear. I 1112 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:44,840 Speaker 1: mean that that was just a brilliant game by Aaron Rodgers. 1113 00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: He's got some playoff experience, he's got an understanding, he's 1114 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:50,920 Speaker 1: got that feeling. He's going to compete. He's gonna give 1115 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:53,760 Speaker 1: you everything he has. Make sure you do everything in 1116 00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:56,840 Speaker 1: your power as a coaching staff and as his teammates 1117 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 1: to try and help him have success. It's a lot 1118 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,640 Speaker 1: of things. The line, the receivers, the routes, the tight ends, 1119 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 1: the backs, all that he needs. Wherever you have to do. 1120 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 1: Just keep him focused on what he needs to do. Nate, 1121 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm with you. What you got? Oh you see it? 1122 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: Look at that? Yeah, this is the Looney Tree.
