00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:51,240

Speaker 4: Taking to church with you.

102
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 7: I did, I did.

103
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 3: It is popped in my head. It's popped my I

104
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 3: got my cracking, my juice and all that. You know,

105
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 3: it's for a Sunday, you know, pray for your name.

106
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 2: For me and death.

107
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 3: Because I met, I had the thought in my head,

108
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,039
Speaker 3: I'm like, you know, this cap space problem that we're

109
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 3: about to experience. This may be the last looking people

110
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: have said this over the years that this this roster

111
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 3: isn't going to look the same. But with the guys

112
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 3: that you have to sign with Trayvon Diggs and also

113
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 3: Ceedee Lamb, that could wreck you for sure, right and

114
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 3: being a guy that's wrecked someone's cap.

115
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 2: That's why I got some cap records in the building

116
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 2: Roman sicily.

117
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 3: Record cap record b C Shall still had recovered for

118
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 3: what you did to this.

119
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 2: Guys.

120
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 3: When you think about this front office and the job

121
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 3: that they have to do to get these guys signed,

122
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 3: and I mean, I think for the most part, you're sixteen.

123
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 3: I believe Cowboy's sixteen million dollars over the cap under

124
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 3: the cap right now, so they're not cat Strap got

125
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 3: four million dollars. You gotta get your rookie signed with,

126
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 3: so that's gonna leave you right at about twelve million dollars.

127
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 3: But what's looming is the Trayvon Diggs. You have to

128
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 3: get something done with him. Then, oh, by the way,

129
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 3: behind that CD Lamb. So guys, I got to open

130
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 3: the floor up and just ask you how do you

131
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: deal with that as an organization knowing that you have

132
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 3: maybe some market setting contracts looming on the horizon.

133
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 6: Well, good thing for the Cowboys they got you know,

134
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 6: Will McLay here, and they've been able to draft well

135
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 6: throughout these past couple of years. But to me, that's

136
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,239
Speaker 6: the only way you get around this because in my understanding,

137
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 6: you're not gonna be able to pay you know, it's

138
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 6: Dig's top dollar and the wide receiver CD Lamb top dollar.

139
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 6: And then you got a backdoor near comes Parsons, who's

140
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 6: gonna probably be the highest paid defensive player when he's

141
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 6: able to come up for his compensation. So to me,

142
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 6: you're gonna have to draft well because those guys, you're

143
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 6: not gonna be able to get the curses, the hookers,

144
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 6: the guys that are the payer, the pieces around the

145
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 6: stars out there to make this team what it is.

146
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 5: So it's gonna be tough. It's gonna be extremely tough.

147
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 6: But I guarantee you Das is gonna be one of

148
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 6: the top two, if not the top paid corner in

149
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 6: the National Football League. You know, Ceedee Lamb's gonna want

150
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 6: his bag as well. And we all know what Parsons

151
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 6: is gonna come when he comes around the corner. So

152
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 6: it's gonna get Caps tracked here for a little bit.

153
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 6: But they're gonna have to draft extremely well because those

154
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 6: you know, bargain choosing free agents here and there, they're not.

155
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 5: Gonna be able to get those guys when those guys

156
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 5: come up.

157
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 3: About that man, yoh, yeah, that was that. But putting

158
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: Digs into perspective, you have J. C. Jackson that just

159
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 3: signed a big deal with the Los Angeles Chargers, all right,

160
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 3: then Denzel Ward one hundred million dollar contract with the Browns,

161
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 3: and so I don't I don't think that anything other

162
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 3: than that is gonna be satisfactory for Diggs because they

163
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 3: at twenty four years old, he's played in ninety percent

164
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 3: of the snaps.

165
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 2: That means he's gonna be asking for give me all

166
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:51,239
Speaker 2: of mine.

167
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 5: He's taking the ball away better than any corner in

168
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 5: the league. The past couple years.

169
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 2: Absolutely, how do you deal I mean, how do you

170
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 2: deal with that?

171
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, if we're looking at the future, I'm

172
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 3: looking at some other guys who are taking up a

173
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 3: lot of cap space right now.

174
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 2: Who probably won't be here all right.

175
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: What happens is when you sign those type of guys,

176
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 3: then you gotta let some other guys go. All right,

177
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 3: So you got guys I don't even want to say

178
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 3: no names, but you got guys on the D line

179
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 3: who are making a lot of money annually who will

180
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 3: probably not be on the roster. If you have to

181
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: sign all three of those guys, all right, you gotta

182
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,559
Speaker 3: figure out what you're gonna do with Dak as well.

183
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 3: Probably gonna extend them, but it's probably gonna be in

184
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 3: a way that helps you create some more cap space.

185
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 3: If you look at a guy like Jaylor Hurts or

186
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes, the way that their contracts will set up,

187
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 3: so I know that they're gonna be some creative ways

188
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 3: for them to get it done. So I'm not really

189
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 3: worried as much as maybe a heck, but I know

190
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 3: there's some guys that I you know, a guy that

191
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 3: I talk about, he probably not gonna be on this

192
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 3: thing and then some defensive line guys, so it'll look

193
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 3: totally different, but those will be your main stay guys.

194
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 3: So they say, hey, man, I don't know what we're

195
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 3: gonna have around them with the curses and the hookahs

196
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 3: and stuff, but we know we need to get digs

197
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 3: Ceedee Lamb and Michael Parson sign and then we'll figure

198
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 3: the rest.

199
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 2: Of it out later.

200
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 4: So so you start looking, you know, I think to

201
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 4: all right, your twenty twenty four cat, you know, just

202
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 4: looking at uh, I go over here to spotrack dot

203
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 4: com and you start to say, okay, chances of Tony

204
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 4: Pollard making ten million next year slim?

205
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 2: Okay, so none, okay.

206
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 4: So you got that, looking at Michael Gallup making thirteen

207
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 4: million dollars next year, Brandon Cooks on the book for ten.

208
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 4: You know, there's there's ways, and you can people that

209
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,839
Speaker 4: you're looking at and say it may not be here,

210
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 4: and they'll be here in different lighton Vanders four point seventy.

211
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 4: There's ways that you can get guys down. Man, you're

212
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 4: a punter next year twenty twenty four making three point

213
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 4: six mil. There's ways that they're going to look cut

214
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 4: extend people, the cat will go up. So there's going

215
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 4: to be ways around it. As every team in the league,

216
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 4: you gonna have to make some tough decisions. Somebody's not

217
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 4: going to be here, right. We'll see play that will

218
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 4: determine who is here and who is not. Jordan Lewis,

219
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 4: you know, look at George Lewis's contract and just you know,

220
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 4: there's there's things today. It's gonna be guys that they

221
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 4: just say hey, Steven Jones and I don't think they

222
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 4: get enough credit at times. They're gonna figure out who's

223
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 4: got to be here, who's not. They're gonna be a

224
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 4: I think heck right now with this cap space because

225
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 4: somebody said me, hey man, what about de Hop. I

226
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 4: ain't trying to sign d Hop as much as I'm

227
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 4: trying to sign Digs. I'm trying to get Digs or Lamb.

228
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 4: I need to get one of these two under contract

229
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 4: before or at training camp. That that to me would

230
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 4: make me feel good because at the end of the year,

231
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 4: I don't what I don't want to do is to

232
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 4: take Pollard's ten for a franchise. I have to throw

233
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 4: that towards Diggs. It's gonna be cost you a lot

234
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 4: more to franchise corner. So I'd love to get Digs

235
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 4: done if possible from the Cowboys. And then you've got

236
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 4: Lamb's contract. Of course he gonna want to, you know,

237
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 4: get it done quicker. But Digs to me that that's

238
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 4: the one I really would feel good about.

239
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 3: But you have to explain why you have the urgency

240
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 3: on Diggs's contract versus on Lamb. One longer than the other, right, no,

241
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 3: one longer than the other because of the way that

242
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,719
Speaker 3: they were drafted four years versus exactly, and so how

243
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 3: they can extend him and they don't have the same luxury.

244
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 3: But historically the Cowboys have kind of drugged their feet.

245
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 3: At this particular particular time, we saw that with Dak's

246
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 3: contract that ended up costing him more. Would they do

247
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 3: the same thing with Diggs's contract where you know that

248
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 3: they may franchise tag him. That's a bad word, but

249
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 3: that's how you kick the can down the road if

250
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 3: you're the cowboy.

251
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: I don't know.

252
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 3: With the quarterbacks, yeah, I think it's been an issue

253
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 3: with them, not necessarily with other positions, all right, d

254
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 3: Law they made him do franchise Tack twice, which is

255
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 3: a win when you look at it, you know, in

256
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 3: the hindsight of like he was making almost eighteen to

257
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 3: twenty million dollars per with that one, But you look

258
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 3: at I don't remember specifically do this thing, but I

259
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: don't remember being that much of an issue to where

260
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 3: we were like, they are they gonna continue to are

261
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 3: they are they gonna sign the guy?

262
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 2: We're not really sure.

263
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 3: I think when you talked about Dak and those guys,

264
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 3: Jerry and Steven know, hey, man, we're gonna get it

265
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 3: figured out. I think it's us in the media who's like, yeah,

266
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 3: I'm not really sure, Like we had a whole discussion

267
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 3: about back for like a year. Yeah, and Jerry and

268
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 3: Stephen like you'all worried about the wrong thing. We're gonna

269
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 3: make sure we get this thing figured out. So I

270
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 3: think I think they're okay. But that's just me having

271
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,479
Speaker 3: that that that hope in the organization.

272
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 6: I can see him playing hardball a little bit though

273
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 6: they did. I can see this playing horrible. He got

274
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 6: the older brother who's who's been, you know, the highest

275
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 6: paid guy. He understands like, you gotta get all your words,

276
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 6: so you know, he's feeding him a little bread comes, Hey, man,

277
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 6: make sure you get the top dollar only on discounts nowhere.

278
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 6: So I can see him, you know, talking to his

279
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 6: older brother, getting that knowledge in there and saying, hey,

280
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 6: you know what, I deserve to be the highest paid

281
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 6: corner in the national football and we understand what.

282
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 5: You know, the Cowboys bringing the negotiation table.

283
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 6: You got that stone, your help. You can get a

284
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 6: lot more money off the field as well. So they're

285
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 6: gonna play horriball, in my opinion, a little bit going

286
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 6: into this negotiation process.

287
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 2: But I'm with you, d Mac.

288
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 6: I think at the end of the day, it's gonna

289
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 6: get done because they understand that this guy is a

290
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 6: cornerstone of the defense. He's young, he's a productive guy

291
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 6: out there, So I think they'll get done. But I

292
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 6: can see them battling a little bit negotiations.

293
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 4: When's the last time Jerry Jones lost a key player?

294
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: You want? That's never?

295
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 4: Never?

296
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 3: And the truth is they knew this when he set

297
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 3: the record, so not like it's just coming up this year,

298
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 3: but they've been in the room for a minute, like,

299
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 3: you know what, we know that we have this one

300
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 3: and we got a whole year year and have to

301
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 3: get this figured out they know Ceedee Lamb. On the

302
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 3: other side, they've already extended the fifth year option for him,

303
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 3: and Ceedee Lamb has already gone on record that Dallas

304
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 3: is where he wants to be, but it is in

305
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 3: the back of his mind. He's worried about it because

306
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 3: he wants to know, Man, how do I fit into

307
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 3: my position group? Well, in his draft year, you have

308
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 3: a guy like Justin Jefferson that's gonna kill everything when

309
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 3: his time comes. And Justin Jefferson was picked after CD Lamb,

310
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 3: so let that sink in. But when you see CD,

311
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 3: do you believe that he's one of those guys that

312
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 3: right now could at the market as you know that

313
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 3: you're gonna have to do with tray Von Diggs. And

314
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 3: how if he is that and how important is this

315
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:08,959
Speaker 3: year for Ceedee Lamb If he is going to get

316
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 3: that market setting contract, he better reset it before Justin

317
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 3: Jefferson because I think it's gonna be hard for somebody

318
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 3: to go in there and say, hey, man, I want

319
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: more than this guy, just based off what Minnesota may

320
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 3: do for a guy like Justin Jefferson and the record,

321
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 3: the number all that speaks for itself and that's no

322
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 3: shot at CD, Lamb one has just been way more

323
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 3: productive than the other. Right, So I know everybody wants

324
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 3: to have the like we're gonna reset it and whatever.

325
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 3: But I think whatever Justin Jefferson is about to get

326
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 3: is going to be so outraged that teams are gonna

327
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 3: look and be like, I don't know, Deshaun.

328
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 2: Watson exactly, that's what.

329
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 6: They like.

330
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 2: I don't know.

331
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 3: But because what like basically, what Justin Jefferson has done

332
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 3: over the last few years has been remarkable.

333
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 4: Historic, It has been a historic level. Ceenee Lamb, and

334
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 4: I kind of go back to what you said, wants

335
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 4: to be here, so you at least have that that

336
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 4: you in my mind, knowing that a player wants to

337
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 4: be here, you can find some way to get there.

338
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 4: Even with Dak Prescott, see the whole time, I want

339
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 4: to be here, and I still maintain that he believed

340
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 4: that he wants to be here. I think there's certain

341
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 4: guys who understand the power that star and the seven

342
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 4: you know appearing national appearances on I think, you know

343
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 4: CD a Texas guy. I'm not worried about that one

344
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 4: as much as I'm worried about Diggs that's the one

345
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 4: I'm concerned about, Cede Lamb. I think they're gonna find

346
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 4: a way to get it done. And then you know,

347
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 4: if I'm Jerry, Joe or Jerry seems like, hey, may Lean,

348
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 4: you can go to dak Leland on your boy. But

349
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 4: Diggs is the one I do worry about because I

350
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 4: that's going to be a very interesting conversation. Yeah, and

351
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 4: I just that's that's to me and how you guys

352
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 4: feel and being weigh in here as well. How many

353
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 4: years have they been searching to find a player like this?

354
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 4: He's a young.

355
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 5: Really, that's really the last mainstay at corner for us.

356
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 4: You know, this is not a guy that you can

357
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 4: let out the building go well, we'll just get a

358
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 4: camp pick and we'll go out. No, man, these dudes

359
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 4: are hard to find. They're very insa passing league. I

360
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 4: really put a priority on that. To me, I would

361
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 4: I would if I own this football team, I'd be

362
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 4: corner Stephen. Get this thing done.

363
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 8: Man.

364
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 4: We cannot be out here searching for corners in the

365
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 4: National Football League.

366
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 2: No, not.

367
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 3: When you have one that's good, like you can go

368
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 3: search and then you're gonna end up with you know,

369
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 3: submit to your guys. But when you got a guy

370
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 3: who could turn take the ball over like that and

371
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 3: continues to get better year in a year out with

372
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 3: whatever it was his weakness the year before, then you

373
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 3: got to make sure you keep that guy on your roster.

374
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 2: And that is Trayvon Diggs. That is there's no question

375
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 2: about it.

376
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 3: When you want, like when you're playing the game and

377
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 3: you're offensive coordinator, you're looking at Trayvon Diggie saying I

378
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 3: don't know, like I don't know what rocks we can

379
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 3: run over there, But make sure make sure before you

380
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 3: throw it there your comfort that your receivers in the

381
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 3: right position, that you got the right velocity on the ball,

382
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 3: because if you don't, it's likely coming back and you're

383
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 3: gonna be trying to.

384
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 2: Make a tackle.

385
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 4: And he plays now, he plays.

386
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 3: Done miss games, has played ninety percent of the snaps

387
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 3: and just again based off of his number since he's

388
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 3: coming to the league, league leading in interceptions.

389
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 2: So, like you said, you can't find that.

390
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,479
Speaker 3: And there's no one more polarizing as far as their

391
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 3: opinion of a guy's talent than Trayvon Diggs. A lot

392
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 3: of people's a double moved, you know, all of the

393
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 3: other things, but still is a playmaker on your defense.

394
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 3: But the elephant in the room, guys, we're not just

395
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 3: gonna gloss over this, because it's an elephant in the room,

396
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 3: all right. And when I was a little kid, I

397
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 3: used to go to the circus and the guy with

398
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 3: the big shovel, he'd be scooping up the poop.

399
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 2: Stephen Jones is right. Steven Jones is right there with

400
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 2: scooping up the poop right now.

401
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 3: And you're gonna have to get Michael Parson signed to

402
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 3: a mega deal. You're looking at all these deals right

403
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 3: now at they're on the horizon. The big briefcase is

404
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 3: the biggest deal that you you got to get done.

405
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 2: You got you castle.

406
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 6: He's gonna be up there with you know, the Aaron

407
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 6: Aaron Donald right, he's getting like thirty summer year and

408
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 6: rightfully so he affects games, and that's exactly what Parsons does.

409
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 4: So worried about that.

410
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 2: He's gonna have to do not right now.

411
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 5: I'm not Yes, you got some time right now, guess

412
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 5: some time.

413
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 4: But it's what is bosaat That's first thing you know,

414
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 4: what is to do is gonna go ahead and hit

415
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 4: the market. And I'm not worried about that one either.

416
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 4: I'm really I'm really not worried about these right these two,

417
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 4: these two guys, you gotta deal right now. Three dak

418
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 4: digs and and and UH and C and TD. I'm

419
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 4: worried about that. Parsons will take care of itself, even

420
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 4: if all you got to do is throw a franchise

421
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 4: tag on the guy. I mean, you can at least

422
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 4: and then he can. Don't called the city in you

423
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 4: come to camp and the city and if you want to,

424
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 4: I'll get to that when I can. These three are

425
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 4: going to take more presence in importance because how you

426
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 4: get these three done will also dictate what you're what,

427
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 4: how your approach is with So.

428
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 6: You think this this team can have the highest paid corner,

429
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 6: d lineman, quarterback possibly and wide receiver in the league.

430
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 4: You had the highest paid quarterback. You then you paid Zeke,

431
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 4: made him the highest paid running pack. You had Cooper

432
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 4: tied to the mark for Martin, Martin had Hearns.

433
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,199
Speaker 6: You had You know, you get all these players that

434
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 6: you can't really build on because you're paying all those

435
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 6: guys that money.

436
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 4: I don't know where Bland comes in that's where you

437
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 4: pay a Tyrone Bland. That's when you drafted Tyler Smith.

438
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 4: And that's what they've talked about. It's player development. That's

439
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 4: why I said it earlier. You got to be able

440
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 4: to draft of outside of injuries too. Like Jalen Smith

441
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,360
Speaker 4: and Layton Vanders were two very good draft picks. Yes,

442
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 4: they just couldn't stay healthy for the most part, but

443
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 4: then you see lighton coming back. So again this team

444
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 4: drafts well.

445
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then when you pay guys like that, that

446
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 3: is going to have to be your main focus, like

447
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 3: who can we get around them on a cheaper deal

448
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 3: to make sure that you know that we're still competitive.

449
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 3: And I think they've proven that they are able to

450
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 3: do that. In order to pay these players, were gonna

451
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 3: have to pay some bills. We're gonna take our first

452
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 3: break and be right back and talk about the ambassador,

453
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 3: the guy that's gonna be talking these guys in to

454
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 3: re sign it with the Cowboys, and as Dak Prescott,

455
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:21,320

00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 5: You say you're going to California a lot of month.

514
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 2: Then you look so sad. He's trying not to incriminate himself.

515
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 4: The hotel is a nice hotel. Yeah, but you're there

516
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:48,919

00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 4: to be the hotel used to be able to stay

523
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 4: inside of the hotel, so they bang you so you

524
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,280

00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,280

Speaker 4: I want to wake up at seven and walk down

531
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 4: to the beach because from the hotel you can get there.

532
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 4: But you know it's an all day thing. Man, This

Speaker 4: is not It's not now. Ain't what you guys do

534
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 4: with camp. This sounds pretty bad to you. It sounds

535
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 4: like sounds like California is horrible. Sounds like you should

536
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 4: think about just not going.

537
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 3: That.

538
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 2: Ain't that won't work.

539
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 3: Can we bookmark this too? Because when I'm looking at

540
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 3: Twitter while you're out there, that's what I want. I

541
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 3: don't see them posting nothing. I'm here. I'm gonna remember

542
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 3: this the minute you post something that that looked fun.

543
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 5: And the same got him again, got him again?

544
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 2: Truth, man, We're gonna see it.

545
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,400
Speaker 4: Ain't all such ice. Keep want to saying in La

546
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 4: all surface son.

547
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 2: All right, well, the.

548
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 3: NFC least has gone back to the NFC beast.

549
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 2: And look, the.

550
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 3: Conversation about Dak, it always somehow goes to a guy

551
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 3: in Philadelphia. But I'm gonna not allow this to happen today. Uh.

552
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,719
Speaker 2: And the thing is, it's gonna happen anyway.

553
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 3: Uh.

554
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 2: The thing is Aaron Rodgers has left the NFC and

555
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 2: is now in the a f C.

556
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 3: So the NFC is wide open for the elite quarterbacks.

557
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 3: Tom Brady's retired, Aaron Rodgers moved on, and so now

558
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 3: you have a bunch of young guns and now Dak

559
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 3: and Kirk cousins Uh in the NFC.

560
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 2: Is this the year for Dak?

561
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 3: Guys, as you look at his career going into year eight,

562
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 3: is this the year for him to just kind of

563
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 3: put himself into that elite playing. They've done everything for

564
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 3: him as far as bringing in a talented wide receiver

565
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 3: and Brandon Cooks.

566
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 2: Your young guns are ready to go. Is this the year?

567
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 3: And do you look at Dak and you survey the

568
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 3: NFC and say he's one of the top in the NFC.

569
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 3: And I'm gonna start with you just based off of

570
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 3: that look you just gain. I mean, I don't think

571
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 3: it's ever been a question if he's one of the

572
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 3: top in the NFC. I believe that he's been that

573
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 3: way since his rookie year when him and Zeke made

574
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 3: the initial connection. I think he's been that way. I

575
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 3: think it has been a little shaky throughout the years.

576
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 3: Two years now with injuries. One he missed the whole season,

577
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 3: than last year he had the hand injury and he

578
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,360
Speaker 3: missed five games. So you look at it and you're saying, okay, Look,

579
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 3: in order for dak to now be the top guy

580
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 3: in the NFC, with the Tom Brady out, with the

581
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers out, he's gonna have to at least go

582
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 3: to the super Bowl because, like you said, the guy

583
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 3: up the street in the same conference, i mean, same division,

584
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 3: just went to the super Bowl. Right, So the standard

585
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 3: is there for like, hey man, you want to be

586
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 3: better than then whoever was the best. You gotta make

587
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: it to the super Bowl. And I think that he

588
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 3: does have the weapons around him. I think the question

589
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 3: mark for is he ready and can he do it?

590
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 3: Because you say he has all the pieces, is the

591
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 3: offensive line If you cannot protect Dak right, who has

592
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 3: changed since he broke his up, broke his leg, he

593
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 3: has changed.

594
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 2: He has not been as mobile as he used to be.

595
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 3: If you cannot protect him and have him feel comfortable

596
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 3: in the pocket, then you're not gonna get the best Dak.

597
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 3: And I think that is the one thing that may

598
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 3: hold him back. So hopefully new offensive line coach. We

599
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 3: got Tyler Smith, we got Tyrant. Hopefully he's gonna be healthy.

600
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 3: You got Terry Steell. I see him out there working

601
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 3: out looking good. So hopefully the offensive line can can

602
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 3: hold up. And if that's the case, then I think

603
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 3: this is a year where you see the competition for

604
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,359
Speaker 3: Dak being the best in the NFC. We'll be asking

605
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 3: that question.

606
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 4: If I'm Dak Prescott. After the NBA Finals, I called

607
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,959
Speaker 4: Jimmy Butler and just say can I come visit with you?

608
00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 4: Because Jimmy Butler is he's never win again v But

609
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 4: Jimmy Butler is a straight dog who's a leader, and

610
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 4: his teams play with togetherness, and that's what I'm looking

611
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,959
Speaker 4: for for Dak Prescott as a quarterback. Now that you're

612
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 4: working with Mike McCarthy, how can you bring this culture

613
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 4: and you guys have a togetherness about you. That's where

614
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 4: he needs to be. Forget you have many a MVP

615
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 4: throwing for this or that. These opportunities that you have

616
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 4: are running out in your career. And I said, I

617
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 4: look at a guy like Butler and what they have

618
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 4: and the way he goes about his business, and I

619
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 4: think of Dak and that kind of fashion, like Jimmy.

620
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 4: Jimmy the best player, but nobody grinds like Jimmy. And

621
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 4: we've known for you, Dak is a grinder. Dak puts

622
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 4: in the work. That's what I would like to see

623
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 4: him become more of as a player like that. And

624
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 4: then of course look at where Jimmy Butler and Miami

625
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 4: heat all right now, they done shocked everybody tied the

626
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 4: NBA finals. And this is, by the way, people forget

627
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 4: the second time he's played in the finals. Houston, Texas home.

628
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 4: By the way, Jimmy Butler, that's.

629
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 2: A damn good comp though it is.

630
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 3: I'm just just giving it up.

631
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 2: I like that.

632
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 6: But you know, as much as our rag, you know,

633
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 6: on Dak Prescott, Yeah, he does have I feel like

634
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 6: this will be a bounce back year for him.

635
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 5: You know, I could be wrong, But I don't think

636
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 5: he's ever you know, back.

637
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 6: To back seasons has thrown you know, all these interceptions,

638
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 6: So I feel like he will bounce back.

639
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 5: Like you mentioned McCray, he has the pieces around him.

640
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 6: He got a deep Threatned Cook, she got that do

641
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 6: it all guy in cdee Lamb. Hopefully Michael Gallup can

642
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 6: come around, got a tight end piece. Hopefully that offensive

643
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 6: line can can withstand some pressure out there and give

644
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 6: him time because you know, in my opinion.

645
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:41,719
Speaker 5: It's going to be on his shoulders.

646
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 6: You know, we talk about the run game. Mccarfey always

647
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 6: talking about were gonna be running the football. They're not

648
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 6: going to run the football like that, all right. I mean,

649
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 6: you're not paying this got forty some million and the

650
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 6: guy that's the head coach, that's playing, that's calling the players.

651
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,479
Speaker 6: I've never really ran the football like that in his

652
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 6: career while he was in Green Bay and now here

653
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 6: in Dallas. So they're going to throw the football. It

654
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 6: is going to be on his shoulders. But to me,

655
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 6: it's all gonna come down to can he make those decisions.

656
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 6: Can he make those great decisions out there to keep

657
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 6: this team rolling instead of compounding the issue you know,

658
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 6: we saw it last year when when things started getting

659
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 6: a little shaky out there, there's one interception, all right, now,

660
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 6: I got to force this sit in here and here

661
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 6: comes another interception. Then it rolls downhill from there. So

662
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 6: to me, it's all about the decision making. He has

663
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 6: the ability, he has the smarts up there. He's a

664
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 6: great leader, one of the best leaders I've ever been around.

665
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 6: So he has all that working for him. Is can

666
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 6: he make the great decisions out there to lead this

667
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 6: team forward? And I believe this will be a bounce

668
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 6: back year.

669
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 4: And he's got a Super Bowl play caller.

670
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 3: Oh my god, and he does and he does. But Danny,

671
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 3: I want to I want to go back, Tony.

672
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 2: I want to go back to something.

673
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,479
Speaker 3: Super Bowl when it coaches on the roster, I mean

674
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 3: you got I mean you got Daan Quinn, you got

675
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy. I mean, so what you got a super

676
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 3: Bowl winning owner.

677
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 2: It's not relevant, you know what do you know?

678
00:30:58,720 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm crazy?

679
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 2: He went not even the same he not even run

680
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 2: the same place.

681
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 5: Disrespect on this show that we have for killing Moore

682
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 5: is I just can't tell you that.

683
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 4: I can't believe.

684
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 2: No, you know, what you brought up.

685
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 3: You brought up a great point about the roster and

686
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 3: how they've upgrade the wide receiver position and how things

687
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 3: are looking up as far as the production in the

688
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 3: passing game, but also where the offensive line is. I

689
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 3: mean that's the great divide.

690
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 2: Uh.

691
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 3: Then we know that Dak can't, like any quarterback, can't

692
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 3: deal with a bunch of guy pressure on you. The

693
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 3: only person that can do that is that guy in Cincinnati.

694
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 3: He seemed to be the only one that could be successful.

695
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 3: Is still get beat up. He the only one that

696
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 3: could do that.

697
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 2: Right.

698
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 3: But when you look at this, I mean, being a

699
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 3: former NFL player, when you look at this roster, dude,

700
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 3: has the Cowboys done a good enough job of formulating

701
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 3: and put putting a roster together that can reach that

702
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 3: championship level?

703
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 2: Not only that, is this roster good enough to compete?

704
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 3: Hell, let's just start in the NFC East, because that's

705
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 3: where most of the problems are. Listen, If you don't

706
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 3: get if they if their offensive line is is good,

707
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 3: is they believe it can be, then I think they're fine.

708
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 3: I think the Cowboys will be fine from what I

709
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 3: see of the offensive line, I don't know that we have.

710
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 3: Those pieces are the continuity to be as successful as

711
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 3: we can be running the ball or protecting Dak Prescott.

712
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 3: I think some of those interceptions that were thrown last year,

713
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 3: they was under some pressure. I think that our running

714
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 3: game when Tony Pouler went out against San fran the

715
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 3: gaps were not being open, right, and that.

716
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 2: Was throughout the entire season.

717
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 3: You brought Jason Peters in at forty and we couldn't

718
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 3: even figure he was a rotating player, Like you just don't.

719
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 3: You don't see that type of stuff in the NFL, right,

720
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 3: So if your offensive line is not up to par,

721
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 3: then you won't be competing against a team like Philly,

722
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 3: maybe not even the Giants, because that is one of

723
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 3: the main points of you paying your quarterback forty million

724
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 3: dollars because you need to give him time to get

725
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 3: the ball to a Cooks of Ceedee Lamb, a Michael

726
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 3: Gallup or to open up those holes for Tony Pouler.

727
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 3: And if you don't have that then then you will

728
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 3: have a hard season. So if they if they as

729
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 3: good as they believe, then I'm all right. But if not, yeah,

730
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be. Yeah, We're gonna be in trouble.

731
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 3: When you look at this roster, what do you what

732
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,959
Speaker 3: do you think? Do you see talent? Do you say, hey,

733
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 3: there's still some holes that need to be filled, or

734
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 3: we're a long way away from making to making it

735
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 3: to Vegas at this point time.

736
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 4: I'm gonna use that word, the word I used to

737
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 4: get this togetherness. Last year, I thought they had a

738
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 4: good locker room and that was minus the wide receiver.

739
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 2: Talent.

740
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 4: Talent was not where we all thought it needed to

741
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 4: be in it and it came back and bitter. If

742
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 4: these guys can figure out a way to play together

743
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 4: and and really get established a better culture. They don't

744
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 4: have a culture of finishing, you know, That's that's one

745
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 4: of their problems. They got to get it togetherness and

746
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 4: the culture of finishing, because what have we seen in

747
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 4: the last two years. They have not finished and the

748
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 4: way they have finished the year has been bad. So

749
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 4: showing you can get this done, the whole roster construction.

750
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 4: Do we have this guy or that guy? I mean,

751
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 4: and I know it's not fair to compare them to

752
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 4: Kansas City, but they had a culture up there that

753
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 4: they just Okay, we're gonna plug people this is your job.

754
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 4: Go do your job, and you go forth from there.

755
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 4: I go back when I watched those NFL films about

756
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 4: you know, your uncle Joe Green, and there was always dudes,

757
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 4: who this is my job, And that's how chuckn No'

758
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 4: had it. Man do come in here, gets your job done.

759
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 4: This is the culture.

760
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 2: This is the standard.

761
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 4: Go get it done. And so to me, I look

762
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 4: at that, that's what these guys have to go do.

763
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 4: Rodney Harrison. When I've talked to Rodney about how they

764
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,720
Speaker 4: got things done in New England, they was always changing

765
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 4: the roster and that was always guys, what does this

766
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 4: guy fit here? Hey, man, this is the standard. This

767
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 4: is what we need you to do. Go out here

768
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 4: and do your thing, and we're gonna trust you do

769
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 4: your job. So the Cowboys can get that. And I

770
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 4: hope that that's where Mike is. I think Mike has

771
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 4: done a really good job in managing this roster. Supposedly

772
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 4: after the first year, keep that going and try to

773
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 4: take that next step.

774
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you one hundred percent on that one. Dude.

775
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 6: When you talk about finishing and you talk about the

776
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 6: last two years when they went into the playoffs and

777
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 6: get San fran I mean, you go in there the

778
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 6: first year, the penalties, you know, hurt this team and

779
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 6: they couldn't finish. And you go into the next year,

780
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 6: you go up to San Francisco. A couple injuries here

781
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 6: and there, but they just weren't They just weren't playing

782
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,799
Speaker 6: their best ball at the right time. And to me,

783
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 6: that comes along with the leaders in locker room, and

784
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 6: I think they have, you know, that great mix of

785
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 6: veteran leadership as well as young talent to go out

786
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 6: there and if they can get that togetherness, like you

787
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 6: just said, if they can bring all that together. They

788
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 6: got the head guy who's he's the head coach and

789
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 6: Colin plays now, so they're kind of under his leadership

790
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 6: as well, and he's done a great job these past

791
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 6: couple of years. If they can get together on that

792
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 6: and just find a way to finish these games, especially

793
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 6: when you look at towards the end of the year,

794
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 6: it's always a many almost lost against Houston or they're

795
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 6: losing these games that they should just demolish these teams.

796
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 6: If we can find a way to finish the season

797
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 6: on a high note, enter the playoffs, you know, going

798
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 6: on a high note, I think that'll prove huge dividends

799
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 6: for this team.

800
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 5: But you've seen the.

801
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 6: Last couple of years, it's always these last you know,

802
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 6: three or four games, they end up losing.

803
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 4: To the Commanders.

804
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 5: You know, going into the playoffs, you can't have that

805
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 5: mojo going in there. You can't limp or walk into

806
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 5: the playoffs.

807
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 2: You got to be riding on a high stream.

808
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 6: And if they're able to do that going into this year,

809
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 6: I think they can make moves in a.

810
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:59,919
Speaker 2: Turn of church Is talking about the AFC Invitational. Goodness great.

811
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 3: As you talk about limping through something, they lived straight

812
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 3: through the AMC and develop.

813
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 4: You got to develop your guys, man. I mean, I

814
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 4: go back to being at that Super Bowl forty five

815
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 4: at Jerry World with Mike McCarthy's Packers. I mean they

816
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 4: lost Donald Driver during the game. They had a good

817
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 4: running back and who's having a Pro Bowl here? And

818
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 4: Ryan Grant who got hurt earlier. I mean, you just

819
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 4: you gonna need dudes, Charles he got hurt me. So,

820
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 4: I mean you just look at the Miami he Tyler

821
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,320
Speaker 4: hero out here's just Ducky Robinson stepping up. So along

822
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 4: the way, you need different dudes and that team you

823
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,399
Speaker 4: played on, Jackson, then you going need some guys a lord,

824
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 4: I mean dron Blair who saw that?

825
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 2: I didn't see that ship? Nah? You mean now?

826
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 3: But you know you bring up you bring up an

827
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 3: interesting point because I'm sitting there watching OTAs and I'm

828
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 3: seeing CD, Cook and MG all together, got their helmets

829
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 3: together and everything, and they walking together, they doing their thing,

830
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 3: and I'm thinking to myself, we are one injury away

831
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 3: from jayling tober to send me.

832
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 2: For Hoko being your third.

833
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's the reality, and that's that's fine.

834
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 4: So you need those guys to do their part every day.

835
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 4: I mean, you two played, but you need these dudes. Hey,

836
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 4: are you serious? Are you going about your job the

837
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 4: way you need to? I mean, what's old boy, Malcolm Butler.

838
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 4: They's a prime example right there.

839
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 2: Man.

840
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 4: Nobody knew who this dude was on game day, okay

841
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 4: when he made the pick, Literally, me and a bunch

842
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 4: of folks over there in the media area because it

843
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 4: held us before they let us go out on the field.

844
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 4: Who where's he from? But they coached him up, and then,

845
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 4: you know, give the player credit. He allowed himself to

846
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 4: be coached up. Knew what he needed to do. Russell

847
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 4: throwde a stupid.

848
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 2: Pick and the rest is what they call history.

849
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 4: But that to me is when we talk about roster

850
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 4: construct because people want to look at names. O, get

851
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 4: d Hot, go get that man. You better start Casimi

852
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 4: Fooko and Jaalen Tober and you know boss Man Fat

853
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 4: Sam Williams, these other guys here at some point time, Man,

854
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 4: they are going to have to make a contribution to

855
00:37:56,280 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 4: your football team. And while Mike McCarthy got right, was

856
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,400
Speaker 4: it twenty first? By that was that coaching ranking crazy?

857
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 4: Mike since he's been here, has done a good job

858
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 4: of developing guy. I mean Terrence Still. Now you got

859
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 4: people using draft picks in the first round to go

860
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 4: get dudes like Terrence Steel, and they've developed them. You

861
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 4: gotta have these guys ready to go. I mean even

862
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 4: the Eagles, mean, I give them credit, they have developed

863
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 4: guys too. You start looking at the teams, who are

864
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 4: who who.

865
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:22,800
Speaker 2: Are who's playing?

866
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 4: Well? They'll tell you people, Man, say whatever you want

867
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 4: about Howard.

868
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 2: They have developed people.

869
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 4: Which is why he's sitting here with two coaches now

870
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 4: that he's hired, in their second years of taking this

871
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 4: team to the to the Super Bowl. We can sit

872
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 4: up here and dislike them all we want to, but

873
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 4: right now you could look, hey, what's the standard at Yeah,

00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 2: And sounds like they forgot him.

957
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 5: They did to me, that's what sound like to mean.

958
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,320
Speaker 2: Hey, bro, listen, drama.

959
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 3: I like this what I want to tell you, bro, Hey,

960
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,319
Speaker 3: just focus on your special Team's role right now, because

961
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,400
Speaker 3: that's that's what they pegged you as at the moment,

962
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 3: right And once you start trying to you know, hey man,

963
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 3: I'm more than this and I need to be on

964
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 3: that's when you start slacking on both, all right. So

965
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 3: make sure on special teams you out there doing what

966
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 3: they paying you to do, which is be a core

967
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 3: special teams player, a gunner or flyer who's gonna make

968
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,200
Speaker 3: those tackles. And when you get your shot to get

969
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,839
Speaker 3: out their defense, then you go out there and prove

970
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:40,320
Speaker 3: your point.

971
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,319
Speaker 2: What happened was you got that option that shot last year.

972
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell y'all what he did, like like I

973
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 3: do with your your tweets, I forgot he probably forgot

974
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 3: to tweet that.

975
00:43:51,000 --> 00:44:02,320
Speaker 2: From now, I'm.

976
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 4: Back in that mode. I was just going through a phase.

977
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 4: We can't downplay God's gift. Time to show I'm really

978
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 4: him after critics, I accept it all back on my dog.

979
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 3: He also tweets, oh goodness, that's what he realized. That's

980
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 3: when he realized he wasn't in the burner. He had

981
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 3: come back home starting he start getting the comments.

982
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, he says, I want to see everybody shine.

983
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 4: If you get yours, make sure I get minds. If

984
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 4: that's how it goes.

985
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: Oh all right, yeah, that's all right.

986
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 4: Now. On May twenty second, he tweeted out, I'm understanding

987
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,880
Speaker 4: it all now, y'all. Finn to be in trouble.

988
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 2: He understanding it all now.

989
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 3: That took it some time, but I guess, you know,

990
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 3: we're glad with his sticky stuff, you know. So if

991
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 3: that's what he's seeing, then that's what's going on. But nonetheless,

992
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 3: I think what Jordan Lewis was trying to say and

993
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 3: what everybody is seeing that the Cowboys have a special

994
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 3: mix of players. If you look at you know, from

995
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 3: JK to bringing in Stefan Gilmore to what we were

996
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:16,920
Speaker 3: talking about with tray Von Diggs, this front line with

997
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 3: Mazi coming in, how special they can be. And this

998
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 3: defense on paper right now has the potential to be

999
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,280
Speaker 3: a very special defense.

1000
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 2: Do you see the.

1001
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 3: Same thing because obviously with Dan Quinn's influence over this defense.

1002
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 3: These guys can be top five in the league. Uh yeah,

1003
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:34,439
Speaker 3: I mean I saw it last year. I've been saying

1004
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 3: that we're gonna be a top ten defense for the

1005
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,400
Speaker 3: last couple of years. And you know, the stats are

1006
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 3: based off total yards giving up on all the other stuff.

1007
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:41,840
Speaker 3: But we can all say with the eye test that

1008
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,400
Speaker 3: when you watch this team play that they are a

1009
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,879
Speaker 3: top ten defense. Like when you go against you say,

1010
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 3: you know what our defense against whatever offense we're playing,

1011
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 3: most of the time you're picking our defense over them,

1012
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 3: unless you're playing Kansas City or sometimes Philly. You know,

1013
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 3: just last year, but our defense has been top notch.

1014
00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 3: And now you just added a steph on Gilmore. You

1015
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 3: got the first round picking Mizie Smith to clog up

1016
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,480
Speaker 3: the middle, which we thought had been the weakness for

1017
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,919
Speaker 3: the last couple of years. So absolutely from the top five,

1018
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 3: top five, Dan quince here.

1019
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 2: Five, I'm with you on that.

1020
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 6: I mean, they got all the pieces, you know, d line,

1021
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 6: they can rush the quarterback, they gut secondary back there

1022
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 6: that can hold her own.

1023
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,320
Speaker 5: So what's not like to like about this this defense?

1024
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,319
Speaker 6: So I can see them being the top five even

1025
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,359
Speaker 6: statistically why I can see them being the top five.

1026
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,480
Speaker 5: But real quick question, did he say CJ's name in there?

1027
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 2: Then?

1028
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 5: Okay, I'm just saying now they don't look at him

1029
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:31,840
Speaker 5: as that.

1030
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 3: Are we a top five defense? If Kevin Joseph was

1031
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:36,520
Speaker 3: out there at cornerback.

1032
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 2: No, I just don't. I don't see it, Persont. I'm

1033
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 2: saying what I've seen.

1034
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 3: But when you when you go across the roster and

1035
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 3: all those people that were named that you got your

1036
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 3: roster out there, any one of those people that Jordan

1037
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 3: Lewis plugged in, you'll be like, you know what, we

1038
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,120
Speaker 3: probably the top five and then you know, so like

1039
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 3: you no offense to the guy just telling like this,

1040
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 3: you know that's what it's go out there and ball out,

1041
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 3: and then that'll changed the conversation.

1042
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 4: When you're talking about that. Okay, Trey and Gilly wanting

1043
00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:03,839
Speaker 4: to Okay, so you know you got dB play that

1044
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 4: he deserves, you know, Okay, you got Jordan Lewis. I

1045
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 4: mean you start looking at you know, you start looking

1046
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 4: at who your your top three guys. He's not in

1047
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,719
Speaker 4: the top three, not in the top four, so he

1048
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:20,879
Speaker 4: can say, don't forget me, Well, you got forgot by

1049
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 4: your teammate play.

1050
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 3: When he got his shot last year. That is what

1051
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 3: got him in the position that he's in now. Can

1052
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:29,040
Speaker 3: he get better?

1053
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,719
Speaker 2: Yeah? But like right now, how is that when Jackson did, yeah,

1054
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,959
Speaker 2: you have to do this?

1055
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 8: Whatever happened, Trevor Lawrens was like, oh, there, there you

1056
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 8: go whatever, big old red blake wherever he was, big

1057
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 8: old red black, Like, they went there and they were scored,

1058
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:52,240
Speaker 8: and he got benched.

1059
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 4: And then he just became full time you know, special

1060
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:55,839
Speaker 4: teams and that in that game, and he played well

1061
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 4: and right in that role. But so when he says,

1062
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 4: don't forget about me, what's the on line? It says

1063
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 4: your action should speak so loud. You don't have to

1064
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 4: say anything.

1065
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 2: Right now.

1066
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 4: What we see on the fields, parcels and all ain't

1067
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:11,520
Speaker 4: go by is what I see. What I see right

1068
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,839
Speaker 4: now is Kevin Joseph is a corner. This is not

1069
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:15,959
Speaker 4: cutting it for a guy who is a second round pick.

1070
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:20,200
Speaker 4: He has been he has been a disappointing player at corner.

1071
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 4: As a special teamer, he has earned his spot on

1072
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 4: the team. You do need him, you need him, he

1073
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 4: does help you. But when you want to say, hey man,

1074
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 4: don't forget me. Go out there and show people that

1075
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 4: you don't.

1076
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 3: Need to be Let me be clear about this too,

1077
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:36,320
Speaker 3: all right, Kelvin Joseph, all right, I've been in your position,

1078
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:36,800
Speaker 3: my brother.

1079
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:38,840
Speaker 2: All right. I was on special team.

1080
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,360
Speaker 3: I got my chance to start and listen when I

1081
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,280
Speaker 3: lost my spot. You ain't see me out there tweeting

1082
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,879
Speaker 3: talk about that. I say, man, I know exactly where

1083
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 3: I need to be at. Bro put me back those

1084
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 3: special teams. Let me go ahead and make my money.

1085
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 3: But some people just can't. They don't understand. Hey, man,

1086
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 3: what's your play. That's how you can shut the naysayers up.

1087
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 3: But your play didn't prove it. So now you got

1088
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,840
Speaker 3: another shot. Maybe, guys, that's gonna be Uh. This is

1089
