1 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 2 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. This he's Talking Cowboys 3 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: training live from the Dallas Cowboys World headquarters at the 4 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 1: Star in Frisco. Stop teaching. Here are Nicky Spagnola, Brian Bronis, 5 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 1: Rob Phillips, and Bill Jones. It's a last Monday, excuse me, 6 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: the last Mamma in August, and it's a day off 7 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: of the players, or maybe it should be a day 8 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: off for me. With that voice coming out of the 9 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: open right there, this is talking Cowboys. There is no 10 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: day off for talking cowboys, right, guys. No, there's no 11 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: day off training camp period. Embrace the grind. That's right. 12 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: We're five days into this thing as far as the 13 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: players schedule is concerned, because they've had four practices, although 14 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: they did have a conditioning test day prior to that, 15 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: so it's we're a week into this thing. This is 16 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: the This is the seventh day that the team has 17 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: been here in Oxnard, California. They arrived last Tuesday and 18 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: this being and on the seventh day they rested the 19 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: players by by NFL rule. That's right, right, right, Not 20 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: that the coaches wanted to rest the player. Ever do 21 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: the Players Association wants them to be rested today? But 22 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: here we are talking cowboys and we've got two padded 23 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: practices under our belt. There's so much to talk about, 24 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 1: not only from the practice field behind us, but interviews 25 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: to go on after practice and so forth. Jerry Jones 26 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: did his car wash last night. We'll get into that 27 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: a little bit over the course of the next hour. 28 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: But do we start things off? The phone number is 29 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: nine seven two four nine seven forty four hundred. Give 30 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,279 Speaker 1: us a call and any questions that you have about 31 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: this team. But you're takeaway from the first weekend of 32 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: training camp. How about we start with the elder statesman down. Oh, 33 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: it would be very nice, but my voice is not cracking. 34 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: You know, you had to work late last Night's right, 35 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: a lot of talking. I think my my initial takeaway 36 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: when the pads came on was just how well the 37 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: UH offensive line UH played. The first team offensive line 38 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: has played. UH. They totally dominated that first pad practice yesterday. 39 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: The defensive UH line did a little bit better. UH, 40 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: they had some moments. But I thought the fact that, um, 41 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: you were integrating a rookie at left guard, and you know, 42 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: we were all wondering how that was going to work out, 43 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: and I thought he held his own against some kind 44 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: of veteran defensive lineman, uh, Connor Williams, and so yeah, 45 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: to me, uh, it was that offensive line, uh, and 46 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: the fact that I was a little roble attest to 47 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: this little skeptical about Cameron Fleming. He just I mean 48 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: when when they weren't in pads, it looked like his 49 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: knees were locked, like he couldn't bend. And then all 50 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the pads came on and they had 51 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: some drills, and he did much better than I expected 52 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: him to do. So that made me feel a little 53 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: bit better about the left tackle backup left tackle spot. 54 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: But I'll reserve judgment on that. You know what, I 55 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: took a closer look at him during the one on 56 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: one pass rushtrills yesterday because of what you said, and 57 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: you're kind of right, like it's not super pretty, and 58 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: he looks like he's struggling for a while, and before 59 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: you know what, the drills over and he's kind of 60 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: locked his man in position. He did that against Coney Eli. Yeah, 61 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: so anyway, I think that's my initial rep. I mean, 62 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: everybody else's and I was encouraged. But what I saw 63 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: from the whole group of wide receivers, the whole group, 64 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: and there's it's a versatile group. They all got some 65 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: assets that I think can help and maybe not as 66 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: bad as everybody was expected. Right, If Reggie Jackson is 67 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: mister October, then Byron Jones is mister training Camp because 68 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: we saw last year what he was able to do 69 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: and we all thought he was off and running. I 70 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: think the transition to cornerback has gone very smoothly for 71 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: him right now. We've seen him be able to make 72 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: a couple of different plays. He had a really nice 73 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: play yesterday in the one on one period where he 74 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: was able uh Lance Lenora tried to hit him on 75 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: a double move and there was some separation there. And 76 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: the way that Byron Jones was able to play the 77 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: ball with his off hand the day before he had 78 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: the interception, so he looks very comfortable. I never thought 79 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: i'd see a day where Cole Beasley would convert a 80 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: third down playing as a wide outside receiver. I always 81 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: thought his work was best in the slot, but we 82 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: saw that a little bit yesterday against a Woozier. So yeah, 83 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: it's there's there's been there's questions. We're a week into it. 84 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: You got two more weeks to really kind of figure 85 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: some other things out. But I think for the most part, 86 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: some of the positions, like Mickey was talking about, you 87 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen at the swing tackle, you know 88 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen at wide receiver. I think for the 89 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: most part, things are kind of running on the tracks 90 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: right now. It doesn't like anything is is really going where. 91 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: It's like, boy that that group is at a hole 92 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: is not looking at I mean, Thompson's making plays. We 93 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: talked about Beasley's making plays. Alan Hearns is making plays 94 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: out here. So I think it boats pretty well because 95 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: we all have a pretty high opinion of what the secondary, 96 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: the young secondary can do, and some of these guys 97 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: are making some plays. I thought Dak Prescott had a 98 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: nice day on his twenty fifth birthday. It was his 99 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: birthday as he was serenaded by the crowd before practice. 100 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: You mentioned Alan Hearns. He made some plays yesterday. Cole 101 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: Beasley has been outstanding the first couple of padded practices, 102 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: and it's you know, through the first week, it's always 103 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: easier to see what the receivers are doing, even usually 104 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: before the pads come on. The fact that he's been 105 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: running all over the place and has been lining up 106 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: everywhere and doing some different things and still being effective. 107 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: I think it's really impressive. And you mentioned what he 108 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: put on the movie. Put on a Woozier. That was 109 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,799 Speaker 1: a realistic route for that drive because it was about 110 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: three seconds ball out of Dak's hand, quick stutter step, 111 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: move inside and he shook the best corner on the team. 112 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: Third and three play, you know, and you've got to 113 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: win on the outside and Prescott. It's funny because when 114 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: you watched the throw, he knew exactly where he was 115 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 1: throwing the football. He did not he did not think about, Okay, 116 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: it's it's third down. Who am I going to get 117 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: going here? He knew that he could throw the ball inside, 118 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: and Beasley's been pretty damn near automatic with on the 119 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: fault except when they miss him. It's not it's not 120 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: now on the flip side of that, though, we talk 121 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: about the wide receivers, and maybe it's one of your questions, 122 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: but I thought it was a really rough day for 123 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup. Yeah, and at the end of practice, even 124 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: when they're running air. You tend to see receivers when 125 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: they're really not feeling it confidence wise. They fight the ball. 126 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: They're fighting it that like, you know, my hands and 127 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: my hands in the right place and all that, and 128 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: I feel like that. You know, He's had some really 129 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: some good moments, but yesterday was one of those days 130 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: where he was probably afterward he was kind of thinking, Man, 131 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: I just wish I could have had that practice back, 132 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: because he did have some some drops that, you know, 133 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: and one of the it started really in the one 134 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: on one drill. He runs a beautiful route to separate 135 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: on a slam. I mean, it's textbook how he gets 136 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: to defend her out of the way and now he's inside. 137 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: All you have to do is finish, and that kind 138 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: of started the snowball rolling down the hill and he 139 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: just could not quite get the snowball to stop. He 140 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: had a day in mini camp where he had some 141 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: drops too, and it's just about finishing plays. And I 142 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: talked to him afterwards and I said, are you are 143 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: you thinking about yards after catch early? And he said, 144 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: I'm just I think I've got it. You know, he's 145 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: thinking about the next move more than finishing the play 146 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: and maybe that's a that's a rookie thing. He has 147 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: a ton of talent and we saw him absolutely padded 148 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: practice day. He had a good day. We had it over. 149 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: They headed over there after when you were talking to him, 150 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: and and uh, that was one of the most impressive 151 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: things about him. What a stand up guy, bad practice 152 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: and he he was accountable. He was And there's a 153 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: lot you know there we've thrown. You know, I always 154 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: say throw them the deep in the pool. He's one 155 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: of those guys you can do that with, I think. 156 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: And they run that drill where they run a slant 157 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: against air. They catch the ball and they're supposed to 158 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: turn up field, and then there's two guys there with 159 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: the blocking pads and they're hitting them. You got to 160 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: run through and you know, maybe he's you know, you 161 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: start doing that and you're getting anxious to turn up 162 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: and it's like the ball first you could see, you know, 163 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: and not that I'm the wide receiver whisper, but you 164 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: could tell when guys are are by the way their 165 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: hands when it looks like say a lot of these guys, 166 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: you know, Alan Hurns makes some really natural looking plays 167 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: in his hand and gallop is. We've seen him make plays. 168 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he doesn't make plays, but when you're 169 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: when you're lunging at the ball, when you're lunging at 170 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: it that you know, I was like, oh man, he 171 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: is fighting it bad right now. You know, he's fighting 172 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 1: it because he wants to And then and it kind 173 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: of double catch, the ball kind of bounces in his 174 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: hands a little bit. You know, Nervousness is not part 175 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: of the voca. I don't think. I don't think it's nervousness. 176 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: I just think he had one of those days where 177 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: you know, he shot sixty four the first day and 178 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: then shot seventy eight the next days of confidence, maybe 179 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: a little bit he had. He had such a good, 180 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: comfortable practice, caught everything, you know, made you know, great 181 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: routes inside. But I focus, you know, and those jobs 182 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: to catch the football. But one of the hardest things 183 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: to do for a young guy in this league is 184 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: separate and he and that's one of the things he 185 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: can do. And in that slant that he ran, I 186 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: mean he spun that. Who he was on? Oh who 187 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: is he running against? You tell about him? One on one? Yeah, 188 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: the one on one. Think it was a lumba. It 189 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: might have been a lumba. It might have been Alma, 190 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right, Well, what did you any tank you had? Well, 191 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 1: what I was going to say, and I mentioned that 192 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup was accountable, okay from from the car wash 193 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: last night, Jerry Jones. Uh, we were not able to 194 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: ask any questions about the anthem, which I was perfectly 195 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: good with because I didn't want to ask any someone 196 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: down the dial wasn't perfectly okay with that, and uh, 197 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: And apparently the NFL has said that they don't want 198 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: any want any NFL personnel talking about it, and it 199 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 1: is a you know, they had meetings on Friday, the 200 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: owners and the players and so this is a very 201 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: sensitive time as far as that goes. And so that's 202 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: I think it's understandable myself. But I was able to 203 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: ask Jerry about Dez Bryant and he's surprised that he 204 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: hadn't hooked on with another team. But after and he 205 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: brought it up himself after what happened on Friday on 206 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: Twitter and so forth. I mentioned the word accountable here 207 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: and I'm said to him that I just love the 208 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: way Sean Lee handled that thing. And he agreed, and 209 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: basically Jerry said, to wrap up his comments on Dez 210 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: and talking about the whole thing, is it was time 211 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: to move on. Yeah, basically, And you know what, I 212 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: like what he said about Sean Lee. He said, well, 213 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: that's the way he deals with the team head on. 214 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 1: He doesn't pull any punches when he's dealing with the 215 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: players in the locker room, when he's dealing with the coaches, 216 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: he will speak his mind like that and he doesn't 217 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: mince words. And you know what, good on him it was. 218 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: But were you a little surprised that he was that 219 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 1: blunt because because I don't think we've ever I've never 220 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: heard him that, not that he missed his words publicly. Yeah, 221 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: but I think he's he's pretty pragmatic throughout his career. 222 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: He was pragmatic on that too. He was he was 223 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: po what was happening and absolutely was It's another yea. 224 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: And I think he found out about it earlier. And 225 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: you know, he wasn't practicing right day, and he had 226 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: he had left the practice field earlier with us helmet on, 227 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: but he was he was obviously was not injured or anything. 228 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: He left and came back trying to say it was prepared. 229 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: I think maybe someone told him about it, because the 230 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: whole thing happened while practice. Travis had no idea, right, 231 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: but but the whole thing happened while practice was starting, 232 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: and so there was no way that anyone And you know, 233 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: Sean Lee's not a guy who's on Twitter all the time. 234 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: He got it. He got a heads up from somebody. Yeah, 235 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: he taking that practice. So I think what happened was 236 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: he went off the field check what was going on, 237 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 1: and came back on the field. He and Steven Jones 238 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: were talking towards the end of practice, uh, together and uh, 239 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: I thought Steven handled it great too as far as 240 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: what he said, and the whole thing should never have happened. 241 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: It always because of an inaccurate quote trolling Dez on Twitter. 242 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: It put doesn't a tough I mean, wouldn't have reacted 243 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: that way if the full quote had come out. Dez 244 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: needs to get into a camp. Yeah yeah, and you know, 245 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: I think, you know, for Jerry Jones's sake, for Sean 246 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 1: Lee's sake, for Dez Bryant's sake, he needs to get 247 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: into a camp and focus on being with a team 248 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 1: and being the best he can at that with with 249 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: that team because the more that he sits out, the more. 250 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: I mean, Dez is one of those guys we all know, 251 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: a very passionate guy. But you can draw Dez off sides, 252 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: you know, and you're right, the the inaccuracy of a 253 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 1: quote drew him off side, just like a good Dan 254 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 1: Marino hard count. He got everybody to jump on a 255 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: play and and you know, so you know Dez is, 256 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: but he he does. He needs to get with a 257 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,079 Speaker 1: team right now. He needs to do it for our 258 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: sake too. Yeah. Yeah, I mean NFL Network shows up 259 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: here and they're doing live things and they're doing it 260 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: about Dez, and it's like you got to come all 261 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: the way because the longer he goes without an opportunity, 262 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 1: the more speculation of why what went wrong here and then? 263 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: And that's what leads to comments and that maybe taken 264 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: out of context, and then he gets more upset. Well, 265 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: they need to go ask somebody else why haven't they 266 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: signed him? So, uh, what do you think that what 267 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: he did on Friday? What on social media? What does 268 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: did how? How does how do other day drew us 269 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: off sides? We're now talking about it? Yeah, how do 270 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: other NFL teams look at that. I don't think I 271 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: reached out honestly to John Dorsey from the Cleveland Browns. 272 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: John and I have said this before. Speculation speculation, Yeah, 273 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: and and John, I don't think John's John's okay, John 274 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: was John. John's trying to find players. That's his idea. 275 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: He goes, I'm just trying to find guys. John is 276 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: a guy that's never been afraid to take a character risk. 277 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: Not to say that as a characterist, but you have 278 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: maybe a potential for some things in the locker room. 279 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: And I don't think that affects him at all. I 280 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 1: don't think it affects a guy like Sean Payton down 281 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: in New Orleans, because he knows what kind of guy 282 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: does Brian is. You know, he Sean follows the Cowboys's. 283 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: He has a relationship with Jerry and Stephen Jones, and 284 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: it might be a situation where they've had some conversations like, 285 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: you know, Jerry, what about des Briant and you know. 286 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: And then I think that the Saints are a team 287 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: that are interested. I think there's teams out there they're interested. 288 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: I just think teams are in this evaluation period. You 289 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: just said it built We're in week one. Now get 290 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: through week two, maybe a preseason game. Then you look 291 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: at your team a different way and you say, we're 292 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: not very good here, We're not very good here. And 293 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: that's where you add an Eric Read or a Dez 294 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: Bryant or somebody to your team that's a veteran player 295 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: to try and help. You know, if Dez will listen 296 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: to what Sean Lee said, Okay, take the emotion out 297 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: of it, sure, and listen to what he said. He 298 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: was said he needed to be more countable and in 299 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: Daz's best interest going forward, and basically what he was 300 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: saying and does best interest going forward, he needs to 301 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: be more accountable and that means with whatever team he 302 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: goes to, that's what he needs to see. This is 303 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: you know what with him? Sorry, I think he needs 304 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: to go someplace where he's not comfortable because I think 305 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: he will mind himself. He won't feel like he has 306 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: the cash aid to speak out. I think you'll see 307 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: a quieter Dez, a more attentive about your business. If 308 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: you think about when Terrell Owens came to the Cowboys, 309 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: you know that first year not bad, right, second year okay, 310 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: then he got his money and he got comfortable, and 311 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: then he got mouthy, and then things went downhill. And 312 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: I think Dez initially will not cause problems with another team. 313 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: Can I have something real quick? Bill? Guys in comment 314 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: if you want, you don't have to, but I'll ask 315 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: the question, do you worry about after when Dez attacks, 316 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: say a Scott Linahan about the offense and you know, 317 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: calls it some things. Do you worry about somebody in 318 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: the organization, off the record or whatever, telling one of 319 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: these national media guys that Peter King, Pete Priscot, you know, 320 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter, one of those guys the real reason why 321 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: Dez Bryant didn't line up at all these positions because 322 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: of this, this, this, and this. Then it becomes more 323 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: of a Then it looks bad, even looks worse for Dez. 324 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: That okay, we wanted to play him at different positions, 325 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: but we couldn't play him at different positions because he 326 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: was incapable of learning. He didn't understand the playbook. You know, 327 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: when you tried to move him around, it was a 328 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: struggle for him. You had to you had to tailor 329 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: the game plan for him. See that's where I worry about, 330 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: you know, somebody, somebody kind of saddling up with one 331 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: of these guys and saying, let me give you the 332 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: real reason why Dez Bryant, we couldn't line him up 333 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: in different spots. Well, that's what. I don't want that 334 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: hard to come out because I think that could get 335 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: nasty too. Here's the other thing that can happen on 336 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: this team is if you get people defending one side 337 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: and posed to the other, and you start putting a 338 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: fraction on this fracture on this team, right that that's 339 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: what Jason Garrett and this coaching staff has to guard 340 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: against and be delirium. Yeah, and that's why, and that's 341 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: why they've got a policy basically focusing on the task 342 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: at hand and uh forgetting about this outside noise. I 343 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: do think that is gonna end up with the team though, 344 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 1: I really do, because because I hate to say, injuries 345 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: are going to happen across the league, and yeah, I do. 346 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: I don't disagree with you all. Yeah, And I just 347 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: worry about I worry about the backlash of when Dez 348 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: is so so violent with his with his words, and 349 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: I worry worry about somebody saying someone takes the high 350 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: road and on the to the media. But then underside 351 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: of it is, hey, let me tell you what I 352 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: really want to tell you here. That's what I worry 353 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: about with that said, I don't want him to get 354 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 1: drug through the mud, you know, for people saying, well, 355 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: des can't learn, that's his biggest problem. He can't know that. 356 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I don't want that to be the 357 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: one thing that you know that people say that's you know, 358 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: could be the issue. All they need to do is 359 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: sign them to a contract and put a clause we 360 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: get your phone. Just take his phone away from him. 361 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: Like he doesn't say those things out loud, he does 362 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: it on Twitter that Jason Witten column, right, yes, right, 363 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: take his phone?

Here, Chris, how you doing? 438 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say how you're doing? Hello, Chris? Yeah, Hello, Chris, 439 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: got a got a question. You know, since we have 440 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: Tavon Austin uh this year, Um, what's so different from 441 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: having a guy like that as opposed to what we've 442 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 1: had the last couple of years And it just didn't 443 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: seem like our offense kind of blended those guys in. 444 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm throwing Lucky Whitehead and then um, the rookie we 445 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: had last year. They just the office didn't seem to 446 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: utilize those guys. So do you see Linahan utilizing Austin 447 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 1: Moore in a different role this year or would this 448 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: be another situation where we got a guy where we 449 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: think we can help out that can help out, but 450 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: it is just not going to be utilized the way 451 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: he should be. Thank you, Chris, and uh and Tavan 452 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: was not utilized with the Rams last year and he 453 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,959 Speaker 1: was fighting through an injury. Yeah, he was the thing 454 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: I've noticed about him. He had fifty eight carries as 455 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: as a running back basically right in LA and I've 456 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: seen him basically only line up as a wide receiver 457 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: here so far. Now that could change. But to Chris's question, Brian, 458 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: you you've said it. The onus is on Scott Lindhan 459 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: to the trade. When they made the trade, Jerry Jones 460 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 1: basically looked at Scott Linehan says, Okay, now you go 461 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 1: figure this out, and Scott Linehan said absolutely, I'll go 462 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: figure this out. I'm with you though about the wrist 463 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: injury was a problem for him. He'll even admit that, 464 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: uh Sean McVay did use him as a running back. 465 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: When I watched the tape of him, there's a lot 466 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: of single back stuff, toss sweeps. They even gave him 467 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: the ball off tackle a couple of times. But Rob's right, 468 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 1: I haven't seen him line up in the backfield yet. 469 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 1: Maybe that's something they're saving for week one, Week two, 470 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: Week three, that kind of a little wrinkle. They don't 471 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: want to show, you know, the media what they got 472 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: with him running the football back there. But yeah, it 473 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: this is on Scotland a hand, and you know, and 474 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: if they don't, if they don't figure out something, then 475 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: the saying is if you if you don't feel if 476 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: you're told to do something and you don't do it, 477 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: they'll find somebody else will come in and can do it. 478 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: So that's that's on a lot of folks to have 479 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: to make that work. Verry sort of alluded to that 480 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 1: in my interview with him last night. He said Cowboys 481 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: coaches are on the hot seat, but they're always on 482 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: the hot seat because yeah, and he went on to 483 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: talk about creativity and the offers and so forth, and 484 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: the things that have happened in the offseason, and I 485 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: think he was talking about the addition of a Tavon 486 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: Austin and how he's implemented as as things go along 487 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 1: throughout this season. The other thing about Tavon Austin that's 488 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: different than those other guys that Chris and Indiana is 489 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: talking about. Tavon Austin was the eighth pick in the draft, 490 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: he's got that kind of talent. Yeah, I mean they've 491 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: got him all over the formation as a wide receiver. 492 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: You see him moving around all over, kind of a 493 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: vocal leader out there too. He's going well even like 494 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: if you remember the play, and maybe I was just 495 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 1: happening to be in the right place at the right time. 496 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: The ball went to Thompson over the top. They didn't 497 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: cover him. They didn't They didn't get a sink from 498 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: the corner to that side. So Thompson catches a ball 499 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: and then he gets hit by Huff and knocked down 500 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: onto his shoulder, and you know, he's kind of gingerly 501 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: getting up and Tavon Austin is halfway to him, like, 502 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: come on, man, get up, get up, we need you 503 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: get up, you know, and you know, Thompson gets up 504 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: and he goes over and you know, gives him a pat. 505 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: And who's the first one they catch a screen going 506 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: out the gate. I mean, they said it up beautifully. 507 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: They get they get Zeke on Zeke on the edge 508 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: and Nixon there, You've got Frederick and Collins and all 509 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: those guys out front. Well, who's the first guy down 510 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: the field? Not even part of the play, running down 511 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: there giving those linemen. I mean, he's hitting all the 512 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: linemen more than he's hitting Zeke as far as good job, man, 513 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 1: good job. What did he get out there? So he's 514 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: kind of been a guy that Yeah, he said that 515 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: in that wide receiver's room, that Tavon came in there, 516 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: and and he's been a leader, veteran leader in that room, vocal. 517 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: And where I was at first most impressed with it 518 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: was within days after the trade, which happened on the 519 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: third day of the trast he was already Briscoe yeah, 520 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: and I was like, wow, okay, so first here, First 521 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: of all, he's a more polished receiver than Lucky Whitehead 522 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: ever was gonna be. That's absolutely And and you know, 523 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: Switzer was a rookie, uh, trying to find his way. 524 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: He's faster than I don't know who was the last 525 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: cowboy receiver who was that fast. Maybe Alexander I was 526 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: talking to doctor Cooper about it. Maybe Joey Galloway. But 527 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 1: it's different speed because his speed he plays sudden. It's 528 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: almost like rocket Ishmael. Yeah, he can kiss the ball 529 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: on the move and there's another gear and he's gotten 530 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: running ability, right, I mean he's got ability of moving. 531 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he's done it all his life. They'll they'll 532 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: use him, don't don't compare. And this whole thing about 533 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 1: not being creative. They averaged twenty eight points a game 534 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: when they went thirteen and three. How'd they do that? Yeah? 535 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,199 Speaker 1: They averaged twenty eight points to first eight games last year. 536 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: How'd they do that? Well? And the one thing last 537 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: night Jerry was most adamant about is he believes this 538 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: defense is going to be improved and that is going 539 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 1: to enable the offense to be a ball control type offense, 540 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: which it what it was two years ago when they 541 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: went thirteen and three, and they're averaging twenty eight point 542 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: it's a game. I guess we gotta wait for that 543 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: improvement until shan Lee gets on the field. Yeah. The 544 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 1: thing that I worry about is usually you're really good 545 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: defensive teams are good up the middle, and I don't 546 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: know if the two of the three spots they're necessarily 547 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: good up the middle. Well that there's a question about 548 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: the tackle depth right now? Yeah, you know, are the 549 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: or are the starters? Yeah? Exactly, Well that too, That's 550 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I mean, the overall I think the 551 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: overall position. Well, late Collins helps when he gets back, right. 552 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: You know, we were kind of high on jod Ward 553 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: and I haven't seen anything. Yeah, this is why they 554 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 1: were interested in Terrell McClain coming back, and he wound 555 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: up in Atlanta and then that they've moved on from 556 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: that obviously, But but that's why they were looking at 557 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: that because of the depth issue. That run defense was 558 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: ranked what two years ago was it eighth? I believe 559 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: it was first in the league? Was it first? What 560 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: was it? What was it overall? What was it overall 561 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: last year? Five? Five? Right, that's what it was. It 562 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: was overall defense was overall against yards. The problem was, yeah, 563 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: we're giving up too many points. Yeah, yeah, Ben a 564 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: lot to feel well those total yards of a lot 565 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: to do with. That Chargers game was god awful when 566 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: you talk about defense, and now they had two really 567 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: bad games big Place, just the Denver game and the 568 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: Chargers game. I think what Jerry's counting on, maybe specifically, 569 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: is the young secondary taking a step forward and Chris 570 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: Richard having that type of impact back there. Maybe that 571 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: can help the front seven. And then look, he's they've 572 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: got some defensive ends who can rush right, and I 573 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: think Tacos looked pretty good here by the way, in 574 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: the first couple of days. Oh, it's good to our 575 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: first Freakas of which, which, as long as he's not 576 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: going up against was it Zach Martin, No, it was LEL. 577 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: Collins yesterday dumped him. Yeah, you know, but you know what, 578 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: he wanted a couple of reps to he's winning more. 579 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: This campaign needs to stay on his feet. I think, 580 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: I think stay on his feet. I think Charles Tappers 581 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: also shown some Yes he has well and you know, 582 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: and now and now it's it's it's it's it's always 583 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: the you know, I always hate this. If you're team 584 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: of hope, you got no hope, you know, I mean, 585 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: you need guys that are going to go out there 586 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: and and and perform. And I you know, I understand 587 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: where both of you going. I thought it was kind 588 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,719 Speaker 1: of a fifty fifty battle with Collins and and and Taco. 589 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: I just feel like that he's more competitive. Last year. 590 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: I didn't think he was as competitive late in the season. 591 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: There were some competitive rushes. Early last season, there weren't 592 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: competitive rushes. Now you're seeing a guy I'm impressed the 593 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: fact that he wanted to take on Lyle Collins because 594 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to mess with Lyle Collins, you know. 595 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: And and they got to go against each other in 596 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: the the compete period, which is you know, right here 597 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: there there, they're one on one, they're kind of going out. 598 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, you're going, whoa, here we go. 599 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: This all be interesting, So do Taco as long as 600 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: he continues the battle, continues to try and prove his technique, 601 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: and Mike Mickey says, stand your feet, he's got a chance. 602 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: Rob Baronelli this morning I heard him on a radio 603 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: show and he was believe he's on the ticket in Dallas, 604 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: and he said that, Uh, the difference in Taco Charlton 605 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,479 Speaker 1: this year over last year. He's hardened his body. It's 606 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: a year and he has a year in that NFL 607 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: weight room conditioning program, and he's he's physically can do 608 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: it better this year than what he was now. And 609 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: once again, we have to remember playing defenses and all 610 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: about rushing the quarterback. You got to play the run. 611 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: And they leak some runs against Zeke both days. Uh. 612 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: And but let's also remember when they go into team 613 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: Sean Lee hadn't been in there, demark. They've been bubble 614 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: rapping DeMarcus Lawrence also by the way, so set out yesterday, 615 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: and Malak Collins is not there yet, and you know 616 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: they just better get used to playing without David Irving. 617 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: But Randy Gregory's on the way at some point. Sean 618 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,479 Speaker 1: in New York is on the way. He's next up 619 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: here on Talking Cowboys. Hello Sean, that's how are you doing? 620 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: How you doing good? Um? I just had a question 621 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: or basically a comment like, I definitely agree with you 622 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 1: guys and show him you got to take accountability for Daz, 623 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: because that's is such a great player, and you know, 624 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: if he would take accountability, he would prove that more 625 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: than what he did. I think the same goals for 626 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: I'm with um, I'm with one of you guys on 627 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: the panel when it comes to Jason Gay as far, 628 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett has a He's been a quarterback. He played 629 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: with the championship team, he was the backup. He played, 630 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: He won a Division A game for US. He wanted 631 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: Super Bowl for US basically because he played a divisional game. 632 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: His father's from Harvard, all he'd know his offense and 633 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: what we've been saying throughout the years of this offense 634 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: needs to change is doing the same thing, and then 635 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: you know we were here and make it defend Jason 636 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: Garrett and his antics. I feel they wasted Tony Romo's 637 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: good years because those eight eight seasons was strictly all Romo. 638 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: Because all I hear when Philip Rivers Drew Brees, the 639 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: first thing they say when they have a bad season 640 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: they have the offensive line, man the receivers. This is 641 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: why they're struggling. But when it comes to Romo, he 642 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 1: makes them paid at eight and the times that we 643 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: could have won back to back games at Arizona back 644 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: in the days Arizona and Baltimore back to back when 645 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: we had nag Yes center. I remember all this because 646 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: I love the Cowboys just like you. What I'm saying 647 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: is Jason Janney to take accountability now all of a sudden, 648 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 1: what we'll be saying for years about the offense and 649 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: play calling has to be true because now everything is now. 650 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: You need true people jobs on the line. I just 651 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: want to talk to that fact. And Desil Bryant got 652 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: too accountability, which we all agree on, and he has ability. 653 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,719 Speaker 1: If you have took if you took accountability. He'd been 654 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: the best test brand that we ever would have seen. 655 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: So just apply the same thing with Jason Garrett from 656 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: being on the boat with Bill Belichick and Jimmy Johnson 657 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: taking in all that knowledge, been on the championship team 658 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: went to Harvard has a great father. They rest in peace, 659 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: and he hasn't created nothing. I think he wasted Romo's 660 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: romoship been won the championship. I'm just a Romo fan. 661 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm a Cowboys fan first. I love what all you 662 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: guys do. And Bran you speak the truth. I love 663 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: you guys, and a Bill Naggie shout out there. Wow. Yeah, 664 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: that was part of the that was part of the issue. 665 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 1: Back then, they were remaking that offensive line and transitioning 666 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: from Gerard and Colombo, and they had a bunch of 667 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: guys that weren't. They weren't what they have right now 668 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: on the mean, the guy that was always in Romo's lap. Yeah, 669 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: that guy, yeah, I you know with the I think 670 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: that you know to me, Garrett knows the situation. You know, 671 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: he mentioned his father and all that. Garrett's ay, it's 672 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: from a football Family's dad was a coach. This is 673 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 1: a business. It's very very results is the key right now, 674 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: and if you know, if the results aren't there, then 675 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: they have to make a determination what they want to do. 676 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: But I'm willing to say, let's see what happens this 677 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: season because I I you know, Mickey and I butted 678 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 1: heads about this before. I respect his opinion about what 679 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: he's saying, and people out there, you know, everybody. But 680 00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: I've said this before every time I wanted to make 681 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: a change, and she win to twelve games, wins thirteen games. 682 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: So I'm willing to give him this season. And but 683 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: if it doesn't, if it doesn't have the success, and 684 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: it might very well not have the success. Difficult schedule, 685 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: questions at certain positions, team young team, it might not 686 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: have the success. But I think that I think the 687 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: Jones family has been more than patient with Jason Garrett, 688 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: and I think he realizes that, and he needs to 689 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 1: find a way to perform, uh, to to get this team, 690 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 1: you know, to be the difference maker, to get him 691 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 1: into the playoffs, to win some playoff games and ultimately 692 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 1: get to where they need to be, you know. Um. 693 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 1: And Jerry says he's got high expectations for this team 694 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, he sure does well. And as I 695 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 1: spoke to this last week or earlier in the week, 696 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,919 Speaker 1: Jerry spoke a lot in the State of the Union 697 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 1: press conference about how much he appreciates this coaching staff 698 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,479 Speaker 1: and believes it and believes that this staff will help 699 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: this young, revamped group rise up right. And that's that's 700 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: also a little bit of a of an expectation I 701 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: think for the coaching staff too, that it's got to 702 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 1: be on them. With as much change and turnover as 703 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: they've had, and as with the youth that they have, 704 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: you've got to coach these guys up well. Garrett always 705 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: talks about continuing to grow as a coach, you know, 706 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: and and I'm You're kind of like, okay, that's good. 707 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 1: You know, it's you're trying. Everybody's trying to grow, trying 708 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: to be better and all that. But there also comes about, 709 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: you know, the results, you know, find a way to 710 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: to be the difference maker if you're going to grow 711 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: and learn. I again, I the Jones have been really 712 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: patient with him. I think they have. They took a 713 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: coach that didn't have head coaching experience, and they knew 714 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: there were gonna be some growing pains there and That's 715 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: probably why you had some of those eight and eight years, 716 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, I mean it was unfortunate that Romo's years. 717 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: I mean I felt kind of felt like Romo willed 718 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: that team to be eight and eight, could have very 719 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: well been a six and ten team if he wouldn't 720 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: have played as well as he did. But you know, 721 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,760 Speaker 1: you get to a point in time where you say, Okay, 722 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: now now think now we have to have results. We can't. 723 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,479 Speaker 1: We can't struggle through another a season or two where 724 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: the you know, the the the the front office thinks 725 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 1: the team is capable of winning and you don't win enough. 726 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: That's that's where they're at. Okay, with all the changes 727 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: in the coaching staff, what are your early impressions for 728 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: each of you on on the coaching staff as as 729 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: a whole. Well, you'll go ahead, and Mickey, I don't 730 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: want to keep talking. I mean, I'm encouraged what I've 731 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: seen from Chris Rochard, Um you know the other guys. 732 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you got a first time linebacker coach, you 733 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 1: got a first time tight end coach. I like special 734 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: teams coordinator, special teams coach, social teams. I mean, I 735 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: I see what Richards adds to the team, and I 736 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 1: think that's good. I see what san Jay Law adds 737 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 1: the team. That's good. You got a first time quarterback coach. 738 00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 1: So how do I know how I'm excited about out 739 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: this coaching staff. Well, I haven't seen him perform yet. 740 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: Rams had a first time a head coach at who 741 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: was hired at age thirty. Right, wow, See that's yeah, 742 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: there's there's there's some things that you know, you look 743 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 1: around the league. I this is just me, but look 744 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: at the Philadelphia Eagles. You know, Doug Peterson goes seven 745 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: and nine his first season, and they turn around, they 746 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: have some some injuries that could have once again made 747 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 1: them a seven and ninet team. He didn't let it happen. 748 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: Team gets on a nice run in the playoffs, they 749 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: you know, they win the Super Bowl. I Mean, those 750 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: are the kinds of things when you're looking around the 751 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 1: league you're saying, Okay, well, how does how's the guy 752 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: who hadn't been an NFL head coach have a have 753 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 1: a rough first season, you know, and then with a 754 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback and then the very next year wins the division, 755 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: wins the conference, and wins the Super Bowl. That if 756 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: you're Jerry Jones a front office and all that. You're 757 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,320 Speaker 1: looking at that and saying, Okay, how how do we 758 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: how do we do that? Where's where's our plan for that? 759 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 1: You know? That's that's where it's rough on this staff. 760 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: I'll tell you. I'll tell you a guy I've been 761 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 1: impressed with, and it kind of an off the path 762 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: guy was is Doug Nussmart with these tight ends Because 763 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: I think the tight ends if you watch what we've 764 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: seen so far from Blake Jarwin, in which you've seen 765 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,879 Speaker 1: a little bit from Jeff Blake Jarwin's open a lot. 766 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: I mean, maybe it's natural ability, but somebody's coaching him 767 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: on routes and techniques and stuff like that and developing 768 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 1: him a little bit. So yeah, you know, and even 769 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 1: Rico Gathers, I mean, I don't know if Rico Gathers 770 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: will ever be the blocker that Brian brought us wants 771 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: him to be, but he'll he'll make a play down 772 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: the field. So obviously, these this tight end group is uh, 773 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,399 Speaker 1: you know, it's no Jason Witten, but you do see 774 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 1: some production during the practice from the guys they do have. 775 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: But I do think that the the new makeup and 776 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: the new personnel on this coaching staff is one of 777 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: the intriguing aspects of this training camp.

How about an injury report from yesterday. Well, 837 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 1: Chaz Green went in with the uh IV He's yeah, 838 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 1: gatorade from the University of Florida, and that's where he went, yes, yeah, 839 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 1: he went, yeah, that's where it was invented resolutely at 840 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: the formula Mickey and the break he did a Harry there, 841 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: how does the guy how does the guy for the 842 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 1: University of Florida get dehydrated? They made they made gator 843 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: The gator man Tacolt has a shoulder and two shoulders. Yeah, 844 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: well the ones not doing very well right now. So uh, 845 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: at least he came after he heard it. He took 846 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: a playoff when they were doing individual the pass rush drill, 847 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: and then he came back and played. So good for him. 848 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 1: But uh, they're they're going to keep an eye on that. Uh. 849 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 1: Subrict Will suffered a sublexation of the shoulder, so it's 850 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 1: like a separation that goes out but it comes back 851 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 1: in on its own. Their concern is he had it 852 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 1: last year in college. Now he played through it. Sometimes 853 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: when those guys do that, and if it's if it 854 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: if it just needs to be tightened down a little, 855 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 1: they'll give him a brace to play through it and 856 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,319 Speaker 1: then do the surgery when the season's over. How does 857 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 1: a wide receiver play with a brace on his shoulder? 858 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 1: They it's done before Isaiah stand back, write him name 859 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 1: from the past, did it for the Cowboys several years ago. 860 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: And then Sean Lee has been getting how that turned out. 861 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 1: He's not with us, he's a personal trainer right now. Worth. Yeah, 862 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: and then Shaan Lee. I think they're being very cautious 863 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 1: with him. Um, he hasn't practiced the last couple of days. Yeah. 864 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: I talked to Lee, you know, because I was we 865 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,759 Speaker 1: had some concerned about, you know, is there's something more 866 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:59,800 Speaker 1: with Sean Lee? And he was he was basically you 867 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 1: He's like, no, no, I just you know, I'm trying 868 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: to get to the point where we start getting ready 869 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: for these games. That's what I want to do. And 870 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: he goes, I, you know, there's a lot going on 871 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks. But he goes, they're being 872 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: cautious about it. I'm okay with that, you know. But 873 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,279 Speaker 1: once we start playing these preseason games and getting it 874 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 1: becomes you know, game week time of a situation, and 875 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 1: it gets into the Carolina week, he goes have a 876 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: full go and all that. But there's nothing, nothing sneaky 877 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 1: going on here. There's no hamstring tightness, there's no neck issue, 878 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 1: there's no concussion issues. They're just being there like saying, hey, listen, 879 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: we're trying to manage him to get him to a 880 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 1: certain point in the season. But we've also kind of 881 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 1: seen this excuse me a little bit with we're starting 882 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,359 Speaker 1: to see a rotation at left tackle though a little bit, 883 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 1: you know, given Tyrn Smiths more breaks that he doesn't 884 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: have to practice the whole practice that you do still 885 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 1: early on, Yeah, you get Cam Fleming in there for 886 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 1: Tyrn goes two plays, Cam Fleming goes a play, goes 887 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 1: a play, you know, back and forth like that. So 888 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 1: anything to do to kind of get these guys through practice, 889 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: you know, healthwise, get him ready for Carolina and then 890 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: take your chances. And they're keeping an eye on a 891 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: Woozier's knee. He banged it the other day and team 892 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 1: and was limping around, came off, and then he went 893 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: back in and played. He was a punt return yes, 894 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: so he was. He was. He was the guy the 895 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: I think he was the gunner. He was either the 896 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 1: gunner or the hold up guy. And he banged his 897 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 1: knee twisted. Yeah. And by the way, Tavon Austin was 898 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: fielding kickoffs yesterday, Yes he was. Yeh. Jason Garrett was 899 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 1: coaching him on it too, showing him how to run 900 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 1: into the ball on kickoffs. By the way, you talked 901 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: about leadership with him, we haven't talked about him like 902 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: you mentioned as maybe a leader for this team. I 903 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,439 Speaker 1: just did a quick count up. There's only eight guys 904 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: on this roster have been in the league longer than 905 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: he has, so I mean he's a he's a veteran 906 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 1: guy who could add something to that room. Three of 907 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 1: them are probably special teams guys. Huh yeah, five positions players, 908 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:56,399 Speaker 1: I guess. Yeah, if you want to count it that way, 909 00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 1: that man maybe it's even more enlightening there you go. 910 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 1: Maybe with his career now too, it's a little bit 911 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: of a sense of urgency. You don't want to be 912 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 1: the guy that was, you know that less Sneed made 913 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 1: a would you say, sixth overall, eight overall. Yeah, you 914 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 1: get a point in time in your career where you're like, Okay, 915 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 1: now I'm on my second team, first round bust. Yeah exactly. 916 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: You know, Cony Eely a little bit of the same 917 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 1: thing too. Coney Eally has been with several teams and 918 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 1: you don't want to get that tag late in your 919 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: career as a guy that all he does is bounce 920 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 1: around from team to team to team. He you know, 921 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 1: he was a bust. Like you said, I think I 922 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 1: think I think Tavon Austin feels healthy. I think he 923 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,840 Speaker 1: feels grateful for the opportunity and he's hopeful that that 924 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 1: they use uh, that Scott Lenahan and those guys use 925 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: him in a way that they can. Like Bill says 926 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 1: that you hand him the football, you throw him the football, 927 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,839 Speaker 1: you get those explosive electric place. We spoke to him 928 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,320 Speaker 1: around the draft, right after the trade went down, and 929 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 1: I to your point, I think he he came off 930 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 1: like he felt he like he got a bad rap 931 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: in LA with the injuries and bad coach through the 932 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,840 Speaker 1: no no, no, no no. He got drafted by the 933 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:08,799 Speaker 1: Jeff Fisher. Oh yeah, okay. You know they went through 934 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 1: all those offensive coordinators. They went with a rookie quarterback. 935 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,800 Speaker 1: You know, they didn't have a quarterback. They went to 936 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,319 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback that was not very good his first year. 937 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 1: So some of his probably good years, he felt like 938 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:23,400 Speaker 1: we're wasted on a seventy nine coach and in quarterback 939 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,279 Speaker 1: carousel there, and then he probably felt like he was 940 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 1: going to get a breath of fresh air with McVeigh 941 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,719 Speaker 1: coming in, and he gets to hurt wrist and having 942 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 1: to play through that. So it hasn't been probably the 943 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:37,479 Speaker 1: best career, and maybe he sees this as o case, 944 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: my one time, I gotta get going and make something 945 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: out of it. Got a couple other guys. I think 946 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:45,320 Speaker 1: Terrence Williams ready to go. Look more full yesterday he was, 947 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 1: he was running hard, Yeah, he was, So he's about ready. MALIEK. 948 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:52,560 Speaker 1: Collins is probably a couple weeks away. Still, they're gonna 949 00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 1: be careful when they need him with that one. And 950 00:48:54,840 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 1: I would imagine Cavan Austin's results. Cavon Frasier, Sorry, his 951 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 1: test on the blood disorder probably comes back today. You know, 952 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,839 Speaker 1: who's ever judging the test probably had the weekend off, 953 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: you know, storrying about football. So and I think the 954 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,800 Speaker 1: the medical staff thinks, I mean, he'll get the okay, 955 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: they'll be able to deal with it. So I think 956 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 1: he's ready to go. And then I'll be interested to 957 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 1: see if Randy Gregory doesn't jump back maybe after the 958 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 1: next day off, give him this week to keep auditioning 959 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 1: and then get him back on the field on Saturday 960 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 1: and start doing a little bit more with pads on 961 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: because he seems to be running pretty well over there, 962 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,799 Speaker 1: but they just don't want to overdo it. All right, 963 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: Ruben and Arlington, you're next up here on Talking Cowboys. Ruben, Ruben, 964 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 1: are you there? Got tired of listening to you? Made 965 00:49:55,040 --> 00:50:00,799 Speaker 1: it through Mickey's minute and injury report? Congratulations Reuben. Yeah. Um. 966 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask a question. I wanted to know, 967 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 1: what are the expectations of the wide receiving Cortinet? Why? 968 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:16,720 Speaker 1: Why are you guys so awful? Excuse me? Awesome? Are awful? Awesome? 969 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 1: Oh every day? Oh thank you, We're just awesome. I 970 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: guess it came out as awful kind of. I was like, 971 00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 1: he could go either way. I admit I have bad day. 972 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 1: It is I admit I have some bad days. I have. 973 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: It was that cell phone in the in the seller 974 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:40,800 Speaker 1: that he was using, uh so wide receiver corps. You know, expectations, 975 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 1: you talk about first week expectation. We've kind of given 976 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 1: a little bit praise to san Jay Lyle for working 977 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 1: without the football yesterday. Uh. You know, guys looked like 978 00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: the routes are a little bit better. They're making some plays, 979 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,919 Speaker 1: even the rookie kids. You know, he started off well, 980 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 1: had a bad damn sure he'll bounce back tomorrow with 981 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,759 Speaker 1: a better day. Um. I think if you if you 982 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,680 Speaker 1: said overall great for the group, I think it's been 983 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 1: the group's been an a I really do. And and 984 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:09,359 Speaker 1: maybe maybe they're gonna prove me wrong at least through 985 00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 1: one week. Uh do they need that a number one 986 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,840 Speaker 1: wide receiver? Do they need Do they need that? Or 987 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 1: can they can they use uh Hearns and Beasley and Thompson, 988 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: you know, can they use and Gallop? Can they use 989 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 1: those guys in a way that that that makes up 990 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:30,359 Speaker 1: for the lack of having at bell cow bell cow 991 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 1: wide receiver that a lot of teams do have, you know, 992 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:38,799 Speaker 1: a hamstring. Yeah, they're down two guys left him off 993 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:41,799 Speaker 1: of that. Also, yeah, they're down to ten wide receivers now, 994 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 1: so you gotta start being careful on numbers. Uh. I 995 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 1: think with the wide receivers, and it's like the fear 996 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,280 Speaker 1: of the unknown because we don't know. But that doesn't 997 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 1: mean they're bad. You know, Brian always talks about, Uh, 998 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 1: did Mike just go? I think I can hear you 999 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 1: a little bit. Okay, Well I hear because you're sitting 1000 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: next to him. Okay, we might have an issue with 1001 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:11,760 Speaker 1: with Mickey's head step. You hear me there. Um. Brian 1002 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,919 Speaker 1: always was like, Okay, throw guys in, Nate Newton, throw 1003 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:16,919 Speaker 1: guys in, And I'm like, well, I want to see 1004 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 1: some proof. Well they're throwing these guys in, and you know, 1005 00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:25,440 Speaker 1: so far, so good, so we'll see. But the wide 1006 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,800 Speaker 1: receiver corps, if you just watch him, it's very versatile. 1007 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:31,279 Speaker 1: And you know, even some of these young guys. You know, 1008 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:36,879 Speaker 1: we don't talk about Lance lenore day yesterday, the other guy? 1009 00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 1: Uh is it McHale? Okay, we have a funny picture 1010 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:46,279 Speaker 1: and I'll post it. He went up in front of 1011 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 1: me and way high to make a catch and I'm 1012 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: standing there and I swear to God his knees when 1013 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 1: he was up in the air or even with my head. 1014 00:52:56,560 --> 00:53:01,240 Speaker 1: It's like him, I really am short. Uh Marchie Murdock 1015 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:04,359 Speaker 1: a little bit. I've seen some stuff from him. Yeah, 1016 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 1: Katie Cannon hasn't been awful. Yeah, I think with it's 1017 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 1: always gonna be with Katie Cannon is running to the 1018 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:13,120 Speaker 1: right route. Well, I understand, no, no, And I wasn't 1019 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,239 Speaker 1: doing that as like as a slam towards you. I 1020 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 1: was just saying that if you ask people who know 1021 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 1: this business, they'll say, Katie Cannon has tremendous talent, but 1022 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 1: Katie Cannon doesn't always know the direction he's going and so, 1023 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 1: and he even admitted it. I think Katie Cannon came 1024 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,880 Speaker 1: out one time and say yeah, he said yeah, he 1025 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,839 Speaker 1: said he oh, he came out and said one time 1026 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:35,319 Speaker 1: he goes, you know, I need to get my head 1027 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,560 Speaker 1: in the playbook a little bit better. And he admitted it. Well. 1028 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:39,760 Speaker 1: And the reason I say that about Baylor is because 1029 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,240 Speaker 1: of their offense, not because oh yeah, yeah, well that's 1030 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:48,600 Speaker 1: that's what. But I expectations for week one. I'm hey, you, 1031 00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:50,920 Speaker 1: I think it's trending. If it's a stock, I think 1032 00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 1: it's trending the right direction. I don't think it's now. 1033 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 1: There's other positions that I'll say this though, if you 1034 00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:59,480 Speaker 1: want to look at another position, it might be trending 1035 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,759 Speaker 1: down a little bit. I haven't seen it from the 1036 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: backup quarterbacks yet. Yeah, I haven't seen it. You know. 1037 00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 1: Mike White has been was my golden boy, you know, 1038 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 1: and through week one, I was expecting a lot more 1039 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 1: from Mike White. I was expecting more from Cooper Rush. 1040 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 1: You know, I've seen some I've seen some throws that 1041 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:19,839 Speaker 1: Mike White's made that It's got me a little bit 1042 00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: concerned about could it be jitters, could it be too much, 1043 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 1: could be trying to learn? And you know, I'm just 1044 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:27,920 Speaker 1: evaluating day to day, week to week. You know. He 1045 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:29,400 Speaker 1: and when we went to get the game and he 1046 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:32,920 Speaker 1: becomes that gamer and he wasn't at Western Kentucky. But 1047 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:37,320 Speaker 1: I didn't expect to see some of the inaccuracies on 1048 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 1: some of the throws. You know, he threw some balls 1049 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: against air where Garrett was basically going get the ball up, 1050 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, his next throw looked 1051 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: like he was the iron Giant pitching machine. You know, 1052 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: back in the day where you know it come over 1053 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: the top, you know that, you know the arm swings, 1054 00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, like that, and and I'm like, well, and 1055 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 1: then and then it went real high. And so now 1056 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 1: he's trying to compensate. Garrett saying, get the ball up. 1057 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 1: And now he's trying to go a little higher in 1058 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: his throwing motion to get the ball to come up. 1059 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:12,160 Speaker 1: And I just I hope they have a crown on 1060 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: the field at Western wo No. He had in team. 1061 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 1: He had a slant route and a guy was wide open. 1062 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: He threw it five yards behind him. Well, but I 1063 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 1: will say this though, he and I wrote about this 1064 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 1: for dallascotways dot com and I'm sure it's up on 1065 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 1: the site. My scouts notes he threw a ball in 1066 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 1: one on one to Jeff Swain with a linebacker, which 1067 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:34,560 Speaker 1: actually was the same It was robertson the safety. If 1068 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,120 Speaker 1: the ball was a footmore inside, it's getting knocked down. 1069 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 1: It was, but it was perfect. So you know, I'm saying, 1070 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:44,399 Speaker 1: I'm just saying one good throw, but five bad throws. Yeah, 1071 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 1: five bad throws. You can't. You can't be that. I 1072 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:51,120 Speaker 1: watch out for Dalton Sturm. I will say this. I 1073 00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:53,440 Speaker 1: thought Cooper Rush made a couple of nice throws. Yesterday 1074 00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 1: he delivered a strike to Terrence Williams with pressure right 1075 00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:59,279 Speaker 1: in his face. I thought he was a little better yesterday. Uh. 1076 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 1: And quickly on the receivers at Dak said something again 1077 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:06,399 Speaker 1: about that number one receiver thing. He thinks game to game, 1078 00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:09,240 Speaker 1: depending on situations, there could be a different guy emerge 1079 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:12,319 Speaker 1: and and because different. If you look down the list, 1080 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 1: all these guys kind of do something, bring something different 1081 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 1: to the table. I think that's kind of what they're 1082 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,920 Speaker 1: banking on. But I still think somebody's got to emerge 1083 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 1: and be a quote unquote kind of go to guy 1084 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 1: and maybe it turns. Let's get to Andrew in England 1085 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,520 Speaker 1: next up here on Talking Cowboys. Just a few minutes 1086 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 1: left on the show. Andrew, you doing your great good. Yeah, 1087 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 1: it's good to be on the show. Was long time listeners, 1088 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 1: A mystery guys on my podcast every day, So thank you. Um, 1089 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 1: I just wanted to you've touched on it briefly to 1090 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:45,320 Speaker 1: be fair going into it, who is looking at taking 1091 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:48,800 Speaker 1: the backup spot for the four quarterbacks? Obviously if we 1092 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:51,320 Speaker 1: want back for as long as possible, but if the 1093 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 1: worst was to happen he went down. Who who we're 1094 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 1: looking at ready to step up forward? Is that an 1095 00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 1: area of concern where we potentially could need some help? Yeah, 1096 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,320 Speaker 1: I think ahead, Mickey, if you got a thought on that. 1097 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:05,360 Speaker 1: If that's yeah, right now, it's Cooper Rush. It's Cooper 1098 00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 1: right right now. It is. And if we remember back 1099 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: to last year, Cooper Rush played well in the preseason 1100 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 1: in the games. Yeah, you know out here, he didn't 1101 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,280 Speaker 1: oppress us, and then he got out there, and that's hopeful. 1102 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 1: That's I'm hopeful, Mike White. That's really what I'm hoping from, Mike. 1103 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 1: I was, I was kind of thinking, again, we got 1104 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: San Francisco, what next Thursday? Week from Thursday. I think 1105 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 1: that that's where this is going to separate. Who the 1106 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 1: backup quarterback is going to be. I think they're gonna 1107 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:32,200 Speaker 1: look at the practices. Both guys have had moments where 1108 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 1: they've been good. But who is able to move the 1109 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 1: team against San Francisco. Who's gonna move it against Arizona, Cincinnati, Houston. 1110 00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 1: Who is the guy that you know when you play them, 1111 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 1: you do see you don't get three and outs and 1112 00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 1: stuff like that. So it'll come down to these preseason games, 1113 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 1: and for what we've seen with Cooper Rush, he's been 1114 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:52,520 Speaker 1: the best of that when he had that opportunity last year. 1115 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 1: And this may go into the season because I don't 1116 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 1: think Rush got the job from Kellen Moore until a 1117 00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 1: few weeks into the regular season. But you talked about 1118 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 1: maybe getting going getting veteran help. I think they're past 1119 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:05,960 Speaker 1: that philosophy. I mean, these guys have to show something, 1120 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 1: they have to have to prove it. But they've tried 1121 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:12,439 Speaker 1: Matt Castle, Mark Sanchez, and when those guys had to play, 1122 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 1: they didn't play well. I think they'd rather go the 1123 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 1: young route and try to develop a guy behind deck 1124 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 1: backup running back Rod Smith. Is that his job to do? What? Right? Yeah? 1125 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 1: I think it's his job. Yeah. Scarborough had a nice 1126 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 1: run yesterday. I'll tell you what. Scarborough showed some nifty 1127 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,800 Speaker 1: feet in these drills. Like Gary Brown does a great job. 1128 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:35,720 Speaker 1: If you're scouting, you want to evaluate vision, feet, balance. 1129 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 1: Gary Brown is like the king of running drills that 1130 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 1: you can go okay eight balance four vision. I'm just 1131 00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 1: giving numerical grades too, but he could. You could get 1132 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 1: a lot watching his drills about seeing where or watching backs. 1133 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,000 Speaker 1: You can see why they were high on keeping him around. Yeah, 1134 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 1: and that was Scarborough. And I need to ask this 1135 00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:58,440 Speaker 1: question to Jason Garrett and hopefully i'll get to it tomorrow. 1136 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: Is the third running back? It used to be the 1137 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 1: third running back had to play special teams? Have we 1138 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 1: got past the point where the third running back doesn't 1139 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 1: play second run pay special teams? Yeah? Yeah, rod Smith, 1140 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,040 Speaker 1: My point is, yeah, since he can play special teams 1141 00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 1: as a third running back. See that's what I think 1142 00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:20,000 Speaker 1: happened last year. I mean, I don't think there's the 1143 00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:23,720 Speaker 1: situation that you got in for Morris. Yeah, al for Morris, 1144 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:26,919 Speaker 1: w wasn't playing special teams and so they kind of switched. Now, yeah, 1145 00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 1: the second time it used to be, I remember Jerry 1146 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:31,720 Speaker 1: Jones philosophy was this, the third back has to be 1147 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 1: able to play special teams. The Philip Tanners of the 1148 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 1: world ard choice. If you were a third back, you 1149 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 1: had to play special teams. And I wonder now if 1150 00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 1: they have a change in philosophy that because you know what, 1151 00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:46,960 Speaker 1: both Scarborough could dress as one of the forty six 1152 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 1: and maybe not even play, you know, maybe not even 1153 00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 1: get an opportunity to play. So you know, we'll keep 1154 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:55,360 Speaker 1: it this coming week to keep an eye on Blake Jarwin, 1155 00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 1: Blake Jarwe Brady and eye tied in Hey. It's not 1156 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:01,920 Speaker 1: only not an off day for talking cowboys, but for 1157 01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 1: cowboys break as well. They are here and they're taken 1158 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 1: over in a matter of moments.
