Yes, 25 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: that being real, I'll tell you right now, that's happening 26 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: if we if we take care business weekend, this is 27 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: going on the helmet. It's been a lot of wins, 28 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: and so there's a lot of stickers. That sticker is 29 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: gonna Yeah, we're gonna have to find a space for 30 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,119 Speaker 1: it because that thing is huge. Oh man, that that's 31 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: pretty funny. Gosh. I'm looking ahead, guys to this Texans matchup, 32 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: and I couldn't help but think about what we talked 33 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: about yesterday, and I hate how confident this team is, 34 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: or not this team, but like this team as an 35 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: in the building with talking cowboys, these these three right here. 36 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: I hate how confident we are in the fact of 37 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: this is just gonna be another game. It's no there's 38 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: there's no such thing in the NFL. But then a 39 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: couple of things continue to kind of come down yesterday. 40 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: These are toilet thoughts, Yeah, a little bit, just flush 41 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: them away. Seventeen point favorites the most, the biggest point 42 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: spread in the n FELL this season. Cowboys lead the 43 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: NFL and point differential and toward the bottom of that list. 44 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: Guess who's there, the Houston Texans. Then you look at 45 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: the injury report yesterday, Patrick No C. Walker and the 46 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys had a couple of guys sprinkled on there. However, 47 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 1: Tyrn Smith back at practice, you had James Washington in practice, 48 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: and then the Texans it's DMP, DMP, DMP, DMPDMP. It 49 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: doesn't look great for the Houston Texans. I don't. I 50 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: don't know if it's tanking or not. I really don't. 51 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of quarterbacks coming out right, 52 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: A couple of guys, c J. Stroud got Bryce Young, 53 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: two guys at the top of the list. We're not 54 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: accusing them of tanking. I don't think we're saying that. Um, 55 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: you know it's convenient that guys separated. Have they had 56 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: a buy this is uh? I don't think so. If 57 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: they're one ten and one, that's twelve games, So yeah, 58 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: they have had a buy Yeah yeah. Um uh. I 59 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: was want to say, let's let's use that to sega 60 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: to it and we will do it on the inverse. 61 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: Houston Texans, ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourself, um, because this 62 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: is what their injury report looks like. All right. Mario Addison, 63 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: dealing with the knee injury, did not participate. Malie Collins, 64 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: who you guys and gal should all know well from 65 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: his time with the Cowboys. Um, he did not practice, 66 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: but his was a rest day, So Malie Collins looks 67 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: like he will play. Nico Collins foot did not participate, 68 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: Brandon Cook's calf did not participate, and it goes down 69 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: the list from there. Derek Stangley, the defensive back, did 70 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: not participate. Jerry Hughes, his was a rest day, did 71 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: not participate, and we'll talk about him momentarily because he's 72 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: the team leader in sex. Kurt Hennish, I mean, it's 73 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: it's like I summed up in the tweet yesterday for 74 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: the injury report, kind of laid out the Cowboys injury report, 75 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: which is short, and we'll get to that in a 76 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: quick second. But then when it came to breaking down 77 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: the Houston Texas injury report. Just yikes. That was my 78 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: professional assessment of their injury report. Just analysis, yikes. Cowboys wise, 79 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: Quentin Bohannah was limited with a knee injury. Doesn't seem 80 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: like there's any major concern there. However, he was inactive 81 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: last week, so that is something to keep an eye on. 82 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: Good news is he's back in practice and he is 83 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: working through it. But we'll see if the Cowboys activate 84 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: him this week or if they give him another week 85 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: of rest on that knee. Jonathan Hankins he did not participate, 86 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: but his was due to a personal reason, so he's 87 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: expected back in practice today. Hopefully the personal issue isn't 88 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: anything major, but if it is, prayers to him and 89 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: his family. Kelvin Joseph and Sam Williams. After the press 90 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: conference yesterday, head coach Mike McCarthy said that there were 91 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: a couple of guys that were quote unquote under the 92 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: weather injury report comes out, and those guys are Kelvin 93 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: Joseph and Sam Williams, both tagged with the illness designation 94 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: they did not participate last week. It was Treyvon Diggs 95 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 1: and Michael Gallup. Both of those players did were active 96 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: very much so the game against the Indianapolis coach. So 97 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: we'll see how it goes with kJ and Sam Williams. 98 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: kJ specifically because he is tabbed as the front runner 99 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: to replace Anthony Brown, so this game is one of 100 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: the first key games for him. And then from there 101 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: you have j Ron Curse with the shoulder and DeMarcus 102 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: Lawrence with the foot. Both of them were limited. Both 103 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: are expected to practice today Tomorrow, Saturday, and beyond the 104 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: field on Sunday. So that's the injury report between both 105 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: of them. Cowboys looking fairly fairly good, assuming that Kelvin 106 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: and Sam, you know, rest up and recover in time. 107 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: But the Houston Texans, my word, so kind of on 108 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: the reverse end of injury talk. I mean the fact 109 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: that a couple of guys were in there yesterday and 110 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys were indoors yesterday. It was a little nasty 111 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: outside and so they worked inside the Ford Center. Tyrn 112 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: Smith was out there. You and I both gotta look. 113 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: I thought he looked great. I thought the movement was there. 114 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: He didn't look like he was limbering, laboring, nothing of 115 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: the sort. What was your assessment of Tyron? Same and 116 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: This is something that just carries over from what we've 117 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 1: been seeing, you know, in the open portion of practice 118 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: over the past couple of weeks or so, he has 119 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: been moving extremely well. And there was one one point 120 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: in practice I think was might have been last week. 121 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: It shouts out to Haley Sutton. She was standing there 122 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: next to me, and he been Tyrann. He went through 123 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: a full drill with brit on the in the rehab 124 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: chords and it was full speed and it included cuts 125 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: and change changes of direction, and I am in awe 126 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: at how someone that side can move that freaking well. 127 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: So when I saw that, I literally was taking a 128 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: back and I looked at Haley. Now it was like, 129 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: holy crap. That again my professional assessment. Yikes, of in 130 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: a good way, in a good way. This is a 131 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: guy who had his hamstring torn off the back of 132 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: his knee the same day. He walks out of the 133 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: out of the facility without even a minor lump, and 134 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: you know, a couple of months later or so, here 135 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: he is out there running, you know, full speed. So 136 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: yesterday was just to carry over from me. I didn't 137 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: expect to see anything um lesser than what I had 138 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: seen over these past several weeks with Tyrono Smith. He's back. 139 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: So when the Cowboys say, um, there's a chance that 140 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: he will be on the field against the Texans, believe it. 141 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: Believe it. There is a chance. Do you think there's 142 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: a chance he's there this week, Guysaiah, just based off 143 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: of the injury and the timetable and what you've heard 144 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: from the front office, or is it more of just targeting. 145 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 1: I don't think next week's out of the question at all. 146 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: I think that's really the fall before Philadelphia, correct, So 147 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: I think the chances are it's a dumb and dumber chance. 148 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: Dumb and dumb saying there's a chance, Remember that I 149 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 1: got that one, You got that one? Didn't give a 150 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: night at the Roxbury people. Sorry, people are really upset. 151 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch it. I need to get the log 152 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: in for the service. Yea, that service, Yeah, whatever it 153 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: is of your Yeah that that that that nobody's watching. Yeah, 154 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: but but yeah, no, I haven't gotten to watch it yet. 155 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: I'll watch it soon. But yeah. So, I mean there's 156 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: a chance. I don't see it happening, But I don't 157 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: know his health in terms of you know what they know. 158 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: So I can't speak on it, but you obviously you 159 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: guys say that he had a good half and half 160 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: practice and we'll see how the rest of the week goes. 161 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: I guess really today and then yeah, no shells all week. Right, 162 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: there's no shells, just walk throughs. But I think what 163 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: you could do he needs to he needs to contact, right, 164 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 1: I would say he needs game. Put him out there, 165 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: let him start um ten to fifteen snaps without shells. No, 166 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: I mean he needs some shells, Okay, but yeah, I'm 167 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: talking about if there's a likelihood of him playing. Yeah, 168 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: of course it's the Texans. You put him out there 169 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: as a starter, you give him ten to fifteen snaps, 170 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: you pull him, you let you know. Tyler and Jason 171 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: Peters finished the job at left tackle against the Texans. 172 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: But you start the ramp up process, which is basically 173 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: what you just did with Anthony Barr, which with a 174 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: much lesser injury, but none the less, wrap ups need 175 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: to happen, especially when you're out for such a period 176 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: of time as Tyron was. So is that a question 177 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: for McCarthy maybe today is with the lack of pads 178 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: in practice this week, and he made it known he 179 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: said it in this press conference that he's not putting 180 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: the guys in pads. It's a scheduled thing. It's not 181 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: because they're playing the Texans and they're taking the Texans lightly. 182 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: I think it's it's just a day off, couple couple 183 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: of days. I think it's too important to see him 184 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: with that full resistance. Yeah, you know, you think he 185 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: needs some guys, like we talked about, when he comes 186 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: back and needs some guys getting after him, right, whether 187 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: it's Mica Dlaw, Sam Williams, whoever you want to throw 188 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 1: over there, Tach, don't do tac. Tach might be a 189 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: little bit too much. But yeah, you know, I mean 190 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: throwing you mean got waves, right, those some guys out, 191 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: I mean, do some one on once. He needs to 192 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: feel that that contact. You just can't when you're when 193 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: you're not in shells. And for people that don't know 194 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: what shows are, it's you're wearing all football pads from 195 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: the from the waist up right, so he shoulder pads, helmets, Okay, 196 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: that's shells. If you're not wearing that, then you just 197 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: have helmets on him. You're not getting anywhere near the 198 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: amount of contact that you would typically get, which means 199 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: that he's not facing that real resistance. Then hasn't faced 200 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: that real resistance since he got injured. Right, So if 201 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, and typically they have a pretty robust 202 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: practice on Saturday, um, if they have a if they 203 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 1: change up and then go shells on Saturday, then that 204 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: increases the likelihood and the chance, I should say, of 205 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: him taking the field against the Texans ums a day 206 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: before the game. But not for a twelve o'clock game. 207 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: This is a new game. This is a neon game, 208 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: because it's it's difficult to remember that his team gets 209 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: neon games. This game, the next two or noon games 210 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: game a lot of new games to Kyle's points. So 211 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: if if you know seven to seven isn't out there 212 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: on Sunday, then I think it's as close to one 213 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: hundred percent chance as you can get that he'd be 214 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: out there against the Jaguars. So it's really sad that 215 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: you don't get the experience of donuts that we have 216 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: here in the studio on twelve o'clock games. I mean, 217 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: you get the experience of game Ie the l and Kyle, myself, 218 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: Barry I gets we're sitting here just in a it's 219 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: pretty good. I get the mac and cheese. Mac and 220 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: cheese is pretty fire. Yeah, you didn't get the smoked 221 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: mac and cheese though, didn't get that one. Uh. Kind 222 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: of continuing with this conversation, not the food conversation, the 223 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: offensive line conversation, Kyle trying to push bass that trying 224 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: to Yeah, no, no, not for me. So I originally 225 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: wanted to talk about wide receivers, and we'll talk about 226 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: that a little bit later on the show. But since 227 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: we're talking about offensive line initially, how exciting is it 228 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: because we talked about good problems on Monday? Right? Who 229 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: do you put at left? Card? Connor McGovern, Tyler Smith. 230 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: By the way, the overwhelming majority of my Twitter poll 231 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: was in agreeance with Patrick. But I think I'm in 232 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: agreeance now with Isaiah. I think you keep it the same. 233 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: I think you keep it at Connor McGovern. Connor McGovern 234 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: hasn't lost that job. He's played really, really well. Just 235 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: want you to have a friend. I'm right there, I'm 236 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: right there, But the fan poole got it over there. Yeah. 237 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to make another debate, We've already thrown 238 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: that out there. But how exciting is it to not 239 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: have a lack of offensive linemen, but have a surplus 240 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: this time around, because that's a huge piece of this 241 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 1: puzzle moving forward that you didn't necessarily you think going 242 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: into the yof season that you had. Front office has 243 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: done an amazing job they have over the last two seasons. 244 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 1: They've been they've been lights out and I'm not talking 245 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: about Sean Merriman and they've been they've been killing it 246 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: in regards of like completely changing this defense personnel wise, 247 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: completely changing the scope of this office in line. Both 248 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: of these areas have been concerned, right, They've been huge concerns. 249 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: You know, you look at the kicker situation. We thought 250 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: that was going to be a complete wou right, it 251 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: was bad. Right, So every issue that has been presented 252 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: in terms of potential downfall at positions, they've addressed it. 253 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: And the more incredible thing, and I think this also 254 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: gives credit to the coaching staff. I mean give the 255 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: flowers to the coaching staff too, because every and we 256 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,839 Speaker 1: talked about it on this show Week one against the 257 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a nineteen to three loss, we came 258 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: back into this studio and we said everything that was 259 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: a question mark reared its ugly head against Tampa Bay 260 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: so and then you lost your quarterback. So at that point, 261 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: Hope looked lost. The fact that all those question marks, 262 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: Twitcher's offensive line, special teams, and a little bit of 263 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: the defense in terms of stopping the run, all of 264 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: those things were just torn apart. And so was your 265 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: secondary in that game too. But with that being said, 266 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: that's not a question anymore. I mean, these are all 267 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: things that have been checked up, checked across the board, 268 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: been addressed and been addressed since that point going into camp, 269 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: Like you said, one of the biggest questions, hands down, 270 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: was the depth at the offensive line position, just as 271 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: a unit. And here we are in, you know, mid December, 272 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: and we're talking about you know, unfortunately you loosed he 273 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: Round Smith at credit the front office, Will McClay, Stephen Jones, 274 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones. You got Tyler Smith, much to the chagrin 275 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: of a lot of Cowboys Nation. Tyler Smith comes in 276 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: and pops right out the left tackle, which is what 277 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: he played at Tulsa, and he has acquitted himself very 278 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: well as a rookie. Obviously, you're gonna have your rookie hiccups, 279 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: and they've been the penalties. But for the most part, 280 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: based upon expectation in the situation he was thrust into. 281 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: You could not have asked for much more from Tyler 282 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: Smith and big fellow. Right, and you pick up Jason Peters, 283 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: you lose Matt will let's go. You lose Matt Farniac too. 284 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: You can't protect right, No, so you lose. My point 285 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: is you lose these two players which you were hoping 286 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: to get some contributions from as early as this season, 287 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: and your offensive line doesn't lose a step, not a 288 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: single step. And that is before seven seven gets dropped 289 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: back into the mix. It's just it's phenomenal kudos across 290 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: the board, front office, coaching staff, and of course we 291 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,119 Speaker 1: have to specifically mention Joe philbin in his his offensive 292 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: line assistant. They've just been phenomenal. So bouquets of roses. 293 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: Scouting department too, Yeah, to the scouting department. That's where 294 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: really that's boots on the ground right there. So when's 295 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: the last time you had this much confidence in the 296 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: offensive line. It was it the Travis Frederick Beard was here, Yeah, 297 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: it was it was the fred Beard fred Beard tyron 298 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: Zach error and then toss in some Ronald Leary for 299 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: those that might have forgot about big Ron right, you know, 300 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: um that was also when you know Lyle Collins was here, 301 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: but also challenging Leary for positions and then you had, 302 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: you know that that situation. But as far as depth 303 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: and talent goes, it was that it was that error, 304 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: not since that error. I'm looking at Tyler Smith's numbers 305 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: compared to Tyron Smith's numbers as a rookie in twenty eleven, 306 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: Tyrone had over a thousand snaps, he had eight sacks 307 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: allowed and thirty pressures given up seven penalties totals, so 308 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: numbers that aren't necessarily great numbers, especially for Tyrant Smith. 309 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: I mean, he got better as his career got along, 310 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: of course, But then you look at Tyler's numbers. He's 311 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: had seven hundred and eighty snaps. He's allowed four sacks, 312 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: which is half of what uh Tyrn did in his 313 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: rookie season with about three quarters of the snaps, and 314 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: he's allowed twenty five pressures, which is pretty high for 315 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: that number and relative at that point too. I mean, 316 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: the fact of the matter is when this season comes 317 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: to a close, Tyler Smith at left tackle in filling 318 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: into a position, that he wasn't anticipated. I'm just saying 319 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: he wasn't anticipated to play left tackle this year. He 320 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: was anticipated to play left guard, came in, struggled there 321 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: in the off season, went right back out the left tackle, 322 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: which was his position in the future. And he's having 323 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: comparable numbers to Tyrant Smith whenever they're both in the 324 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 1: rookie seasons. There's a chance. There's a chance he's your 325 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: left tackle of the future, and he's shown that the 326 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: way that you wanted it to be sure, But anything 327 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: can happen either way, is what I'm saying. That's why 328 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 1: it's always a chance. I mean, it's not foregone conclusion 329 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: that he's going to continue to have the trajectory the 330 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: Tyrants in. It's a foregone conclusion that they're looking to 331 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: him to be absolutely I agree with that. Now will 332 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: that manifest itself? Time will tell. Yeah, trajectory says yes, 333 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: but time will tell.

They just breeze by. 400 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: It's a stop. It's a stop on a tour, you know. 401 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: But they just walked right by. I didn't know we 402 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: were taking shots of people. Shots kind of a listener. 403 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: RPG's babies, Yeah, says rocket launch freaking go huh, all right, 404 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: camping on the roof, scoping bang, Absolutely, Isaiah. Are you 405 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: a fan of cryptic tweets? Cryptic? Yeah, like like mysterious 406 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: no tweets? No, Patrick, are you a fan of you? 407 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: Gotta understand. I grew up into my Space era Yeah, okay, 408 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: my Space, Black Planet, Christian Mingle, all that stuff. The 409 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: farmers with Facebook. I was with Facebook when you had 410 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: to have a college you're gonna have a college email address. Okay, 411 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: that's where the era I come from. We didn't throw 412 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: cryptic stuff out there. Cole. You wanted to say something, 413 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: you said it with your chest. Now everybody sits behind 414 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: their little computers or their cell phones and sends out 415 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: whatever they want to either draw attention or the throw shade, 416 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: or to act like they can say, so we'd act 417 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 1: like they got their chests puffed out when they really 418 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: wouldn't say it in person. The world's a different place now, Kyle. 419 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: So now people say things cryptically to try to get 420 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: some attention. Say what you don't on chess. I'm just 421 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan, and we will talk about really 422 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: quickly what we're talking about specifically, but it's not exclusive 423 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: to this individual, just period across the board. I do 424 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: not like cryptic tweets like I'm with Isaiah, say it 425 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 1: with your whole chest. I think it's corny, it's I 426 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: think it's it's a looking. I think it's just a 427 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: corny thing. That term was around your generation. It's cringey. Yeah, 428 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: that's that's better. Corny is the older term. Cringey is 429 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 1: the curtain current. I guess that's what I can't say. 430 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, well that's too. There is a certain 431 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver that yesterday put out a quick cryptic tweet 432 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: following the news starting to trickle out that Dallas Cowboys 433 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: have cooled on talks with Odell Beckham Junior. Cool cooled. Yeah, 434 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,120 Speaker 1: not corny, not cringey, but cooled. There's still quote unquot 435 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: working on it at you know, Jerry Jones, but I 436 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: think cooled an. The reason why is not because the 437 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 1: meetings went poorly. No, everything was great. Actually from what 438 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: we have heard that the players that hung out with 439 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: him at the game, Treyvon Diggs, Michael Parsons were great. 440 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: The conversations he had with Mike McCarthy went swell, Dak Prescott, everything, 441 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: Steven Jerry all of that. Check check check check check. 442 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 1: But then you get into the injury talk. That's where 443 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: the hold up is, and that's where the hold up 444 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,880 Speaker 1: is league wide right now. I think, isn't that why 445 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: he's not on a team? Correct? Absolutely correct? Is the 446 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 1: injury timetable you were thinking here, we are thinking maybe 447 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: next couple of weeks he could come in and play. 448 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 1: Two or three weeks down the road, maybe that Philadelphia game, 449 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: he's there and ready to go and help the team win. 450 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons gave us a little insight that Odell Beckham 451 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: told Micah yesterday. Here, I guess a couple days ago, 452 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: but he said this yesterday five weeks five weeks out, 453 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: which would put him at right at the tail end 454 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 1: of the regular season. So best case scenario week eighteen 455 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 1: final game against the Washington Commanders or the wildcard round 456 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: second base best case scenario, realistically, you probably wouldn't see 457 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: him as a full, fully engulfed part of this offense 458 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: until the divisional round or the championship round. It's like, 459 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 1: like I said earlier this week, the conversation moved to 460 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three as it relates to Odell Belcam Jr. 461 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: Because you simply don't know, based upon, you know, the 462 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: medical situation with his knee, if he'll be able to 463 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: take the field in twenty twenty two. Because consider this, 464 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 1: if he did, in fact tell Michael Parsons that he's 465 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: five weeks out from well this week because they met 466 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: earlier this week, if he told him he's five weeks 467 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: out from this week, players will always tend to lean 468 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: towards optimism, right, best case scenario. So if O'Dell's best 469 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: case scenario was five, that means realistically same right, a 470 00:25:55,359 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: seven or eight right, which again, some things are just 471 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: absolute in the world. Yeah, death Texas and the ability 472 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: of the Cowboys medical staff to do their jobs right. 473 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: So if the Cowboys medical staff is looking at his 474 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: his you know, Mr, and looking at his reports and 475 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: they did the physical, the one over and they sit 476 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 1: back and they say, is this the same medical staff 477 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 1: that found the issue with Damon Clark? It is still 478 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: drafted them anyways because of the plane not a red 479 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: plane and making an impact just for the people that 480 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: were going to tweet something best for the same medical 481 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: staff that you know, for those that are saying, Jalen 482 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 1: Smith wouldn't take another snap in football? How's that nerve doing? 483 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: So again? Death Texas Cowboys medical staff best medical staff 484 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: in the league in your opinion. You worked with them 485 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: straight up, and you worked with multiple You were with 486 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: the Giants, the Jags, Patriots, the Cowboys. The Giants have 487 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: a really good staff at the time. Jacksonville had a 488 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 1: really good staff. Um. But yeah, Dallas to me as entirety, 489 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 1: I think Dallas has us. Was it like was it 490 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: close or was it like blow him out of the 491 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: water sort of at your time, And it's the same 492 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: staff now that I think I was spoiled. So let's 493 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: just say that I was spoiled and I spent too 494 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: much time with all my medical staff. But I don't 495 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: know if that's yeah, that's not a good thing. I'm 496 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: saying the Organizationally, I was spoiled. I was. I played 497 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: for some really good organizations, but Dallas holically, when you 498 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: start looking at Jim, you look at Britt, and you 499 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: look at Greg. Those guys, the three of them, plus 500 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: they're the people that they bring on those that's a 501 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: that's a trifecta. Yeah. Yeah. Again, if O'Dell is saying 502 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 1: five weeks, players will almost always go to the to 503 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: the shortest window, which means realistically probably looking at seven eight. 504 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: So then the question, because it's very telling, are you 505 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: willing to sign and stash because that's basically what you'd 506 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: be looking at. I knew this conversation would go one 507 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: way or not. This conversation, this debate will go one 508 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: way or another. Once he got into building, because because 509 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: of the medical staff, Yeah, it was gonna the deal 510 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: was either gonna get done really quickly because they said, yeah, 511 00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: I knew, I knew it, Like we could talk about 512 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: it all leading up to it. But as soon as 513 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: he got in the building and didn't get their hands 514 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 1: on him and get up there their medical staff and 515 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: MRIs and all the other kind of jazz. I'm not 516 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: sure all that took place, but I would assume all 517 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: that took place. It did. He was either gonna get 518 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: done immediately or not at all. And there there's something 519 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 1: to be said for those that are saying, well, you know, 520 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: sign Stash and while you because you still have James 521 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: Washington ramping to come up as well, um and get 522 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: old and the old Dale Bell can j You're in 523 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: the building with this outstanding medical staff that we're talking about, 524 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: so that he can finish his rehab here and that 525 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 1: might just expedite the process there. I don't think they 526 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: wanted to commit to him. I don't think they wanted 527 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: to commit to him beyond this year. Truthfully, that's my belief. 528 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: I think they wanted him run his impact, right. I 529 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: think Jerry wanted him for this run. That's if it's 530 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: not this run, we'll wait and see what we look 531 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: like next year. Do you think you blame him for that? 532 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: Though not at all. It's a great business in my opinion. 533 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: If he's not ready to play, then don't mess with it. 534 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: We'll see it in the office. And to answer your cohon, No, 535 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: the Wide Receiver Corp. Doesn't need him right now, but 536 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,479 Speaker 1: you do need some insurance now that might come by 537 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: way of James Washington, who hopefully can get on the 538 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: field and make an impact. But being James Washington or 539 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Junru, you would like to believe or like 540 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: to know that you're going into the playoffs injury proof 541 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: at the position because if player X or player Y. 542 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm not going to say the names because I don't 543 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: want to. I'm superstitious like that. If they one of 544 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: those players go down, goes out with an injury, and 545 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 1: you don't have someone that is ready to step in 546 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: and step up at a high level, you're going to 547 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: be in very real trouble. But that being said, all 548 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: insurance isn't the same James Washington, albeit not the player 549 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: that Odell is. He's ready to get on the field 550 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: Asaph Odell, you could. You could sign that insurance policy 551 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: and you still might not see it payout in twenty 552 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: twenty two even if you need it. So so many 553 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: layers to this, but yeah, Jerry Jones wants present tense 554 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: to impact now because he wants to make the and 555 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 1: now and he wants Odell Bill comp Juny to be 556 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: the additive now. If Odell and his team are saying, well, 557 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: there's a chance, but we could definitely make sure that 558 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: you're good in twenty twenty three. Then I guess the 559 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: question for Jerry becomes with and what concessions are you making, 560 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: because you're going to have to make a lot of 561 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: concessions for me to eat that. Yeah, no, I completely agree. 562 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: I think the conversation is completely turned. It's not the 563 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: same as what it was a week two weeks ago. 564 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: And it's also a conversation I'm tired of having. I did. 565 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: There's there's some locker room fatigue with this year. Yeah, 566 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence said it yesterday. I'm tired of talking about it. 567 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: I'm sorry we had to hit it because Mike had 568 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: talked about it yesterday, and then the timetable is termed. 569 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 1: The decision is different. This is the last time I 570 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: will talk about OBJ until the pin hits the paper, 571 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: whether it's with the Cowboys or not. So that's the 572 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: last time we're talking about OBJ. I want to shift 573 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: that conversation into the Wide Receiver Show because, yeah, with 574 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: an the way that this team has built momentum, it's 575 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: been in a different way than they've done it in 576 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: the past, but it's been in a way that both 577 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: I know Isaiah standbacks talked about before. Patrick nose Walker 578 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: has talked about before, and that's by running the football 579 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: and being physical. So when we come back on Talking Cowboys, 580 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: the run game is setting up the pass much like 581 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: it always should have been. Where is the credit going 582 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: to go? Is it going to Kelly Moore? Is it 583 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: going to the running game? Is it going to the 584 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: wide Receiving Corps? For being consistent and reliable? I'll mention 585 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about when we come back right after 586 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: this on Talking Cowboys. Todd thought it would be secure 587 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: to jog in the Cheetahs Savannah. Todd believed the big 588 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 1: Cat repellent he bought online was reliable, and now Todd 589 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: is trying to be faster than this cheetah that can 590 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: run eighty miles per hour. But the good news is 591 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: Todd has AT and T five G. It is fast, reliable, 592 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: and secure, and he learned the best thing to do 593 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: is stop running and toss her the backpack with the 594 00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: beef stew At and T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, 595 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: It's not complicated. Five G requires compatible planning device.

Run the ball, run the ball, run 652 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: the ball, and then throw it. It needs to be 653 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: a run first offense. Does the fact that there's some 654 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,800 Speaker 1: confidence around not only the offensive line, but the ground 655 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: game in general with the one two punch of Tony 656 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: Pollard so much so that it's opening up the passing 657 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: game and these wide receivers are getting better separation and 658 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: benefiting from it. Absolutely, this is the key to success 659 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys offense. And you're absolutely right. We've 660 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: talked about the extensively on this show and it works. Yeah, 661 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 1: Lauren Hole, Kellen Moore has matured and graduated himself up 662 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: to what I consider an elite officers a coordinator. I 663 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: think he was a really good coordinator before. But as 664 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: long as he knows that this is effective, as long 665 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: as he commits to it, you're you're elite officer a coordinator. 666 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: You don't have to throw your way into the category 667 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 1: of being an elite officer a coordinator. Your job as 668 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: officer a coordinators to put your guys in position to 669 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 1: be successful and score points, whether that's on the ground 670 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 1: or whether that's in the air. Some teams evolved differently 671 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 1: depending on what you have available to you. Yeah, the 672 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: identity of this team is just that run the freaking ball. 673 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 1: You got a two headed monster in the backfield. You 674 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: got a great office, a line that's doing really well, 675 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: scoring you touchdowns at the top of the league. Okay, 676 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: they're protecting your quarterback, Kate, do what you have to 677 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: do to be a successful. Don't do anything outside of that, 678 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 1: because when you get cute, you become the ugly duckling. 679 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 1: I like it. I like that. I mean, at the 680 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: end of the day, the scientists right there in front 681 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 1: of you, killing Moore, continue to consistently commit to the 682 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: run to set up the pass because there are times 683 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,439 Speaker 1: where you've gotten away from it and it's come back 684 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: to bite you be it in the micro and you 685 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 1: know certain situations or in the game overall, as far 686 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 1: as the outcome is concerned, more often than not. In 687 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 1: the three losses, well, week one was such an aberration. 688 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: I try not even mention that because it was just 689 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:28,720 Speaker 1: such an operation. But in the other two losses, those 690 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 1: are hanging on your head because you got away from 691 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: the run. You were up, and we don't want to 692 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 1: talk about Green Bay, but one of the reasons for 693 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 1: that collapse was you got away from the run and 694 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 1: in which case you were up by fourteen points. You 695 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: should have used the clock as the twelfth defender and 696 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 1: just ran it down their throat, which you did. But 697 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 1: it looks like we're back to Kellen Moore understanding the 698 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 1: level of commitment that is required to the run game. 699 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 1: When you have two dynamic running backs keep the ball 700 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 1: in their hand two further notice, and then you have 701 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 1: an elite quarterback you can allow to play off of that, 702 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: and it just completely keeps the opposing defense off balance. 703 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 1: And that's how you're going to continue to win games 704 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: going forward. So with that question, Beer, that that being 705 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: the case, I've got a question on the back end here, 706 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: which one do you want to utilize more against the Texans? 707 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: Do you want to allow it to get your wide 708 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: receivers a little bit of extra pub you get him 709 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: some some airtime, maybe liftoff since we're playing Houston, or 710 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 1: do you run right at this this Houston Texas team 711 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 1: and just continue to wear them down. I think you 712 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 1: do what you've been doing right, don't change a thing, 713 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: don't change anything. I want more of? Is Malik Davis? 714 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: M Really? Yeah? Why is that? Because I want to 715 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 1: beat a team? You know? That would be fun because 716 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: Damian Pierce and Malik Davis were one two on the 717 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 1: depth chart at Florida together, so then you can kind 718 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: of duel each other out a little bit. Speaking of rookies, 719 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: I want to see them go at Jalen Petrie a 720 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: little bit in coverage he's been suspecting coverage all year long. 721 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 1: I was watching til him yesterday. He was a big 722 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,800 Speaker 1: time draft pick. I wasn't very high on them in 723 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,280 Speaker 1: the draft. Actually got in an argument with with Brian Protis. 724 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: They did. Yeah, he's ranked eighty five of eighty eight 725 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: safeties on Pro Football Focus right now. And like I said, grades, 726 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,320 Speaker 1: I really don't pay attention to. But I mean eighty 727 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: five of eighty eight, that's the bottom four. That's just 728 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,359 Speaker 1: something to keep in mind. I want to see them 729 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: attack the air a little bit. I agree with you 730 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 1: don't change anything, continue to run the football the way 731 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: that you have, and then you can open it up 732 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,959 Speaker 1: a little bit. I want to see him take those 733 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: mistakes away in the early parts of the game. That's 734 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: a big thing too, And I agree. And I think 735 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 1: that you will see the receivers Ceedee Lamb, Michael Gallup, 736 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: Noah Brown, the tight end crew. And I think this 737 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 1: is a good game to get Jake and Peyton involved 738 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, I think you'll see them, you know, 739 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 1: make a big play respectively. One we used to call 740 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,359 Speaker 1: the Dallas defense the Duffel bag boys. Every time I 741 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 1: hear about those two, Jake and Peyton I think of 742 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:04,919 Speaker 1: the Deffel bag boy is there too, But yeah, I'm 743 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: with Isaiah and that this freaking the month of December. 744 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,919 Speaker 1: You experiment where you need to experiment office and line 745 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 1: rotations because you got Tron coming back, cornerback opposite Trevon 746 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 1: Diggs and outside of darn Bland because you lost Anthony Brown. 747 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: But this is also where things are set as far 748 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,879 Speaker 1: as schematics go. You you've determined that your better run 749 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 1: first team used to play action off of that. Start 750 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 1: refining that, start sharpening that more and more, because not 751 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: to look forward, but you kind of got to peek forward. 752 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 1: Massive game coming up on Christmas Eve. The playoffs are here, 753 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: not long thereafter. December needs to be where you're hitting 754 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,640 Speaker 1: your stride, refining everything that needs to be refined, and 755 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 1: everything that needs to be experimented with tweaked that you know, 756 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: get that worked out. So don't go into this game thinking, Okay, 757 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: well yeah it's the Texans and we can throw it 758 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: all around the field. It's true you probably can, and 759 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 1: the science says you can. Right keeping out on Jerry Hughes, 760 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 1: I mean that guy has eight, so contain him and 761 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: then everything else falls into place. Um, but I mean 762 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 1: get in there, punch him in the mouth. Take whatever 763 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: hope they have going into this game away immediately, immediately, immediately, 764 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 1: because this is a team, this is a team in 765 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,800 Speaker 1: the Texans that you can, you can break their heart 766 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: and their emotions and their hope in the first quarter 767 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 1: because they they're getting paid to do it. But they 768 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: I don't think at this point one ten and one 769 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 1: in Cowboys, Chiefs, Titans or the next three opponents, these 770 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 1: guys are ready to take to take the January. They're 771 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 1: ready for some some vacations. Were they're ready for some vacations. 772 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: Were you ever on a team that had a season 773 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: like that where it was one two wins? I didn't 774 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: think you were. What was the worst season you ever 775 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: went through? Regular season one? I don't remember the record. 776 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,280 Speaker 1: It was Jacksonville for sure? Was it? Yeah? It was. 777 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 1: Was there a pride issue at the end or was 778 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 1: there was there a fatigue? Was it more a pride 779 00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: of we want to we want to keep our jobs. 780 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 1: You're counting down vacation where you realize what I'm saying, Okay, boy, 781 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 1: you're looking at you like what I got five weeks? Okay, 782 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: they've been eliminated from playoff contingent effective last week. Now 783 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: you're going up against the Cowboys, and then the Chiefs 784 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: and then the Titans. Those guys, they're calling them the 785 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: travel Planners. They're just they're ready to get up out 786 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: of here, so you know, make it easy for them 787 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,800 Speaker 1: about putting them in a coffin early. Yeah, they are 788 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 1: currently the number one pick, but that's no surprise at anybody. 789 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: They've lost seven straight games. That's first in the league, 790 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,760 Speaker 1: most in the league in terms of a losing streak, 791 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: so it lost seventh streight. They trying to get up 792 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,359 Speaker 1: for these games. Not enough, You're gonna lose draft status. Yep, 793 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: you're gonna drop. They've got the thirteenth pick two from 794 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 1: Cleveland for the Deshaun Watson trade, so that pick is 795 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: even looking better and better. They have no incentive to 796 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:50,399 Speaker 1: really the only and I mean the only incentive they 797 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,799 Speaker 1: have is to try to beat the in state big brother. Yeah, 798 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: that's that's all they got. Everybody gets up to play them. 799 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: I mean it's still especially when they're good in state 800 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: big brother. That's the only movation for the Texans. But 801 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: you know, punch him in the mouth. Early with Zeke 802 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 1: and Pollard. You know, break him in the first quarter 803 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: and this game will get away from the Texans very quickly. Guys. 804 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,839 Speaker 1: You want to see shoulders start to slump. Heads are 805 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: going to drop. The players are just going to get 806 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: bigger and bigger. And if you think fifty four against 807 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 1: the Coats was something, if you break the Texans will early, 808 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 1: this could absolutely be a sixty steak two and fourteen. Wow, 809 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 1: that's pretty bad. That's really bad. That is bad. But 810 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,359 Speaker 1: you were counting down vacations. Yeah, you weren't the only one. 811 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 1: And that lock him out of New York. Who's your quarterbacks? 812 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:40,879 Speaker 1: Sharon Brochure, Dad Lane was really d Blaine. Chad Henny 813 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 1: still in the league. Where's he at? He's backing up 814 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 1: my homie? Is he really? I did not know that 815 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: he's been doing it? I did, Oh, I didn't know that. 816 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 1: You and I were in Inglewood in that hotel lobby 817 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: and we were watching the Chiefs play and Chad Henny 818 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: tried it out there. He's been doing every year. I 819 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: remember that. That's pretty funny. I should have learned how 820 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: to play QB. Yeah right, that's a mistake. Yea. I 821 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 1: should have never left, should have never left. Drafted in 822 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. Wow, he's still sticking around. Good 823 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: for him. They drafted after me.
