Cowboys get a big win yesterday, 11 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about it. They went forty three 12 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: to three to the Atlanta Falcons at home. That's so 13 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: just hearing that score. That's incredible. And I've Nick as 14 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: soon as we finished with the Denver game, his first 15 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 1: words were, first, don't even know if the game was over. 16 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: You were like, I know, who was gonna get their bus? 17 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: Whoop Atlanta? And you clearly put that target on them, 18 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: and Cowboys showed up and showed up. Nick. Nick, you 19 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: deserve some credit, my man. I mean, this is this 20 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 1: is the NFL, and I take I took issue with that. 21 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: I was like, you don't just get to decide that 22 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: they're going to whip somebody's ass, like if they get 23 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: paid too, That's that's how this works. And not only 24 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: was he right about that, he was also like, and 25 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: then Philli will probably turn around and kicked Denver's asses 26 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,199 Speaker 1: and here we god' you know, maybeat Denver by seventeen points. 27 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: So no, no, don't be raising your arms over there, 28 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: because you were after that game when we came back 29 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: into the office, you were saying, well, I don't know 30 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: about this team. I have my doubts. Now he did, Now, 31 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: I said, I did say that. I just said we'll 32 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: find out this week. Like if they go and they 33 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: lay an egg against Atlanta, now we're gonna find out 34 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: what they are. But I did I thought they would 35 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: kick their ass, and not so much about the Cowboys 36 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: doing it. I just thought the Falcons would come back 37 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: to earth a little bit a combination of everything. Dan 38 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: Quinn was not gonna let that happen, and that was 39 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 1: that was clear, and you could see with the game 40 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 1: ball and all that stuff like it mattered to him. 41 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: So I just hundred percent, I just that's amazing. Because 42 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: I mean I picked him to win by eleven points, 43 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: which is covering the spread. Well, that's it's a dominant 44 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: win in the NFL forty points. Yeah, you just don't 45 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: see that. You just don't. I mean, they from the 46 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: from the coin flip to the into the third quarter, 47 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: they just the Falcons didn't look like they belonged on 48 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: the same field. Probably the most complete win that I 49 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: can remember the Cowboys having, and I mean for a 50 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: long long time now when they beat Jacksonville if you remember, 51 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: like that was like three or four years ago, eighteen 52 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: yea seven maybe it was. It was that was surprising 53 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: because we thought Jacksonville was good. What's going on here? 54 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: We thought Jacksonville was good? Um, but just from everything, 55 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: the defense was dominant, the special teams was special. Again, Um, 56 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: they actually blocked upon that way, you know, like the 57 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: right way. What talking about that? That is unbelievab What 58 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: are the odds that they would do it in back 59 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: to back games? Get it right this time? And oh 60 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: speaking of right, right, Nishan right who scores the touchdown 61 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: after bobbling the one last he's so he's so awesome, 62 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: Like get to interview him after the game and give 63 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 1: him credit. Last week, he comes in there, he did it. 64 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: He talked about the play and all that. This week 65 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: he comes back and he's like, he's got this grind. 66 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: You know, he reminds me of Bryce Butler. He's got 67 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: this you know, big smile. He's like, he's like, I'm back. 68 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: You know. It's like, and it's better this week. You know, 69 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: he was all excited about it and and is like, 70 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: of course he scored the touchdown. You know, that's why 71 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: I love full circle. Yeah, everything about this week seemed 72 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: like it was full circle. Cowboys needed this kind of 73 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: You just you don't get to write narratives like that 74 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Like, we had a bad setback, so 75 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: not only are we gonna win, we're just gonna obliterate 76 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: the other team. The rookie that had the terrible mistake 77 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: is gonna get He's gonna get his touchdown. What else happened? 78 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: Dak played his first game, so it was gonna play 79 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: his best freaking game. Mike McCarthy, I mean they didn't. 80 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: He didn't have his team ready to play. He had 81 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: some he had some fourth down calls in there that 82 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: backfired on him in that particular game. He didn't change that. 83 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: He stayed with the fourth quarter I mean fourth down gambles, 84 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: you know, he stayed with that. And he also switched 85 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: it up and said we're taking the ball, which I 86 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,119 Speaker 1: didn't like that. I never liked it, but I would 87 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: always always differ. But it worked this time because they 88 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: got the ball, they scored, and then in the third 89 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,239 Speaker 1: quarter it didn't matter. It didn't, I mean, nothing matters 90 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: except for when am I gonna write my story? Was it? 91 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: Was it just me? Or did the whole game actually, 92 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: from beginning to end seem just kind of effortless, like 93 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: they weren't in there and we're just having fun. It 94 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: wasn't like, oh, we're battling and really trying. It's just 95 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: like they're out there playing having fun. Yeah, getting things. 96 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: One of the things I said to you was like, okay, 97 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 1: this is all good. It felt like a like a 98 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: maddened game where you're like, okay, I gotta get everyone 99 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: some stats here. I was like, I just hope Diggs 100 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: gets to pick I'm just changed this narrative around for 101 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: him and get an interception. It seems like a type 102 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: of game where he would and he did, and he 103 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: made one of those digs plays where it was like 104 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: off his head. Every interception that was made was a 105 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: great play. Yeah, I mean he caught one off his 106 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: head and that was the third best one because Jordan 107 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: Lewis had a good one, and then Anthony Brown that 108 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: was the best one. That might have been one of 109 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 1: the better ones of the whole season. That was an 110 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: amazing interception. I'm in awe. I'm in awe of that performance, honest, 111 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: And I mean, the Falcons aren't world beaters. I get it. 112 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: They I doubt that they actually make the playoffs, even 113 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: though that they were in a wildcard spot yesterday. But no, 114 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: they're they're no, They're absolutely alive. It's we're seeing it. 115 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: There's like there's three or four fire breathing dragons in 116 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: the NFC and then a bunch of I mean, the 117 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: sixth and set, the fifth seed's gonna be a great 118 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: team and the six and seven seeds are probably gonna 119 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: be pretty mediocre. Here's here's what's interesting. And I'm not 120 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 1: sure what the Rams have done, but but they're not 121 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: even winning their division right now. So of the of 122 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: the division with leaders, all four of them have a 123 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: terrible loss, right Like you would think Dallas had a 124 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: really bad loss in the Denver Tampa yesterday. What was 125 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: they were on there? The Cardinals yesterday and then they 126 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: didn't have their quarterback or their top receivers. So okay, 127 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: that factors in. Yeah it does. And you know, we'll 128 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: see what Cam's doing there in Caroline and all that. 129 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: But Blade Bay got murdered in their opener to the Saints. Yeah, 130 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: so and we know the Saints they're there, so they're 131 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: one of the teams. Is very hard to figure out 132 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: who they really are. Yeah, But I mean, overall, I mean, 133 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: it was just a fun it was It was a 134 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: fun game, and in a game where you know, it's 135 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: like okay, all right, if there was any doubt, and 136 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: there was, I mean there was a little doubt because 137 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: you want to see, okay, is this who they are 138 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: or not? Well, I thought they sent a message to 139 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: the league of like that's when we're playing our game, 140 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: this is what can happen. Yeah, and they weren't shy 141 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: about saying either. A lot you get a lot of 142 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: questions after a forty point went about like did you 143 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: make a statement? And Zeke Elliott was like, yeah, we're 144 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: that team. If if, if if we're if we're on 145 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: our p's and q's, we're that team. And then Michael 146 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: Parsons was even better. He was like, uh, he was like, 147 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: I don't want to curse here on the microphone, but 148 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: we're not trying to be fed with right now, like 149 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: talking talk that trash, Michael, Let's go go. You know, 150 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: I thought about this a couple of times, and I 151 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: was gonna maybe say this in the you know, um 152 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: on the press box, but I'm like, oh wait, Jason Garrett, 153 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: like that was it was. It was fine for you know, 154 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: but it went for a decade and you could tell, 155 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: like you could just kind of sense it was. It was, 156 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: it got stale and then this isn't a bash him. 157 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: It's just that that's his. It's the most happens. Yeah, 158 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: and it's just refreshing to see different plays, different things 159 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: that we've never seen before, you know, just like, yeah, 160 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: let's keep doing this McGovern thing and he's gonna get 161 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: the ball. Its point. I thought it would be yesterday, 162 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: but you know, and let's do different things. Let's do 163 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: different things all right around, you know, and and the 164 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: way they do things on special teams and letting Fossil 165 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: do some of his things. I mean, it's just different stuff, 166 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: and it's it's fun to see. Yeah, it's always something different. 167 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: I think most games this year. You do look at 168 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: something that they did different. Yesterday, the I don't know 169 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: if what you can call it, the handoff to Zeke 170 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: and Zeke kind of it wasn't a loaddle like a 171 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: handoff that past pass. Yeah, first it was just it 172 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: was just it didn't go anywhere, but it was still 173 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: just different. It's something different than you you know, some 174 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: of some of the ways that Kelle Moore utilized my 175 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: government yesterday. There were things that I was like, I 176 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: didn't even realize you could even do, you know, because 177 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: I started following the NFL with Jason Garrett here obviously 178 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: focusing mainly on the Cowboys and everything. So now seeing 179 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: some of those things that he's coming up with that 180 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: is so creative to me, I'm like, oh, we can 181 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: do that, Well, why haven't we ever done that before? 182 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: So it's just it's really refreshing and very very exciting. 183 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: Like Nick just said, I'm glad Nick brought this up 184 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: to because I love the way that they didn't they 185 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: didn't blink, you know, the game went South last week 186 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: in part because they get they missed those fourth downs 187 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: gave Denver spark. They don't care. They didn't go for 188 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: it on fourth on the opening drive like they did 189 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: last week, but two of their three fourth down attempts 190 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: were on their second and third possession. One of them 191 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: was a fourth and five. It's not even technically like 192 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: a close just they don't care. Twenty one yards the 193 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: CD finish that drive with a touchdown, then the next 194 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: one fourth and three. Don't care. We're not even We're 195 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 1: screw the sticks. We're going to the goal line. We're 196 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: throwing at twenty three yards to Michael Gallup. And I 197 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: don't think it's Yeah, I don't think it's a lack 198 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: of respect for the Broncos or the Falcons for that matter. 199 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: It's just look at us. We're the Cowboys. We got 200 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: these guys. We should be going for it. We should 201 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: be dictating the game. And you basically you put the 202 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: game out of reach right there because you whimp around 203 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: and kick a field goal and it's ten three, or 204 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: now it's thirteen to three, and oh it's thirteen to 205 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: six before the half. That's whimp football. They're like, no, 206 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: we got studs, we're gonna go score touchdowns and make 207 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: this twenty one to three. And I love it. I 208 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: absolutely love it. And when it was thirty five to three, 209 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: it was about to be thirty five to three on 210 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: an extra point, and they have a penalty with you know, 211 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: on Atlanta to get the ball down to the one 212 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: they just take. Instead of just declining it and taking 213 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: a thirty five to three league, they said, no, we're 214 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: gonna take them off the field, put the offense back on, 215 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: run the ball, get two point conversion and be up 216 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: thirty six to three. I don't think a lot of 217 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: coaching staffs would have done that, you know, going back, 218 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: I'm so bad at math, but that makes it a 219 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: five score game instead of a four, right, So there's 220 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: like a mathematic thirty four point. Yeah, there's a mathematical 221 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: reason to be doing that, yeah, which is yeah, Yeah, 222 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: I love it. I absolutely love it. Going back to 223 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: the fourth downs, do you think in any way that 224 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: what they did yesterday on fourth downs, because there were 225 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: some of those situations, I think, and I know for 226 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: a fact the second one. The first one was a 227 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: little outside or maybe I have him back with side. 228 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: It was a little outside of field goal range, but 229 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: maybe would have been How much you think their their 230 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 1: decision making yesterday was a reflection of the fact that 231 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: they didn't have Zirline. I don't know. I really don't 232 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 1: know how what they what they liked from him in 233 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: the pregame warm ups, if they if they were you know, 234 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,599 Speaker 1: comfortable or not. Um. You know, we noticed it in 235 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: an extra points he's got a different kick than than 236 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: than Zerline and it's it's more of a line drive. 237 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 1: It may and that that means he may get some 238 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: more more blocked one longer field goals. I don't know that, 239 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: but it's an interesting point you made too during the 240 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: game as to why you thought maybe that was. Yeah, 241 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: maybe from Canada, where you may have to kick into 242 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: heavy winds, maybe it's makes more sense to kick just 243 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: drive that thing through because it's a different kick. He's 244 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 1: just driving the ball. Uh, you wonder what it looks 245 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: like on forty fifty yards. But they never had to 246 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: kick a field goal. And you interviewed him, I did, 247 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: nice guy. Yeah, I didn't know. I didn't know what 248 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: to ask him. I was like, I was like, I'm 249 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: I'm kidding when I ask you this, Like I'm not 250 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: being serious, but like you get kind of disappointed when 251 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: you start trotting toward the field and they tell you 252 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: to turn back around. Question. Yeah, because it happened to 253 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: him yesterday. And he's like, no, I mean the goal 254 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: is to the goal is for the team to win games. 255 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: So you know, I got to play my part with 256 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: the extra points or whatever. And that's he made a 257 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 1: really good point. There's so much stuff that goes into 258 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 1: that that you don't think about. And he made the 259 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: point that we're talking about the kicker who didn't kick 260 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: in the first segment. I love it. That's how dominant 261 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: this game was. But he's like, you know, they got 262 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: they got like a Hall of Fame caliber return man. 263 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: Like a big point of emphasis was to not let 264 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: him really have a role in the game, and they didn't. 265 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: That's a credit to him. I think the first one, 266 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: maybe fourth and five. It's a longer distance than what 267 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: we're used to. It would have been a fifty yard 268 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: field goal, and it's early in the game. That could 269 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: be asking a lot. Second one, no chance in hell. 270 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: I mean that's a forty two yard field goal. Indoors, 271 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 1: roof and doors were closed. I just think they trust 272 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: their offense. And by the way, if they didn't kick 273 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 1: the first one because of Lerium, just keep him on 274 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 1: the team. I'm sorry, Greg, like, I'll sacrifice that if 275 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: it means that we're making the right decisions on these 276 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: fourth downs. I don't care. Doors were open, right, I 277 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: thought they were close open, doors were open. I missed that. Sorry, Sorry, 278 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: it was a nice day. It felt it probably felt 279 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: the same, you know. Um. You know another thing too 280 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: about that first one. I don't think you decide to 281 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 1: take the ball and and to go get a three 282 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: nothing lead, you know. I think I think that that 283 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 1: mindset was we're going to score. We're going and so 284 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: I don't think it would have to be fourth really 285 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: long for them not to do that. The mindset was 286 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: to go get a touchdown. And they were also aggressive 287 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 1: on those two plays. I mean, they got twenty one 288 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: and twenty three yard games like they weren't. It wasn't 289 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: like they were just trying to pick it up with 290 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: a little dump off into the flat. I just the poe, 291 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 1: the poetic, the symmetry of it all was just amazing. 292 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: Like they might have scored a touchdown on the one 293 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: to Cedric last week if Dak Puts throws a better 294 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: ball like he threw an awful ball, and then this 295 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 1: week that is a that is a tough throw and 296 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: tough catch like it's a corner route. The coverage was nice, 297 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: Dak had to put it exactly where it needed to 298 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: be not to see on the first one. And gallop 299 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: throw was a nice one too. They were both. They 300 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: were both nice. But at least you know Gallops breaking 301 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: back to the ball. You've got to you've got his 302 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: body to target. But you put it in right there 303 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: where he lived at the toe tap right. But the 304 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: Lamb one, you're just throwing it into space. You're dropping 305 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: it into a bucket in front of him. It's gotta 306 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: be right there or it's not going to be complete. 307 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: To have the faith to throw that route on fourth 308 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: and five and to just hit it beautifully. Just that 309 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: was that day. A chef's kiss. Why is that what 310 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: we're doing? Though? All right, you guys are so old. 311 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: I like it. That's awesome. Okay, that's awesome. It's internet, Internet. Yeah, 312 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: that's that's a meme. We eat you guys on that. 313 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: That That was That was all you I was. I 314 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: was with it. Nick was with it. I think it 315 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: was with it all right. We're gonna take our first 316 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: break when we come back. We got more to talk 317 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: about with this game. We might have a little time 318 00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: to talk about with another game as well. But what 319 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: do that one? All? Right? Back? This is Das Cowboys 320 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: dot Com Radio. Before there was a draft, you could 321 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: size up a cowboy by three simple factors. The crease 322 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: at his hat, the bend of his brim, and his 323 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: unbending attitude a man. Stetson didn't just protect him from 324 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: what life through at him.

See Mortgage 375 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: Studios at the start, Nick, real quick, we never got 376 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: to a sixty one. You want to give me a 377 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 1: sixty one for today's episode? Yeah, Well, you know, there's 378 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: always the right answer and then there's always my answer. Ye, 379 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: both sixty one. Yeah. Nate Newton, our dog, he's best 380 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: friends now again or friends every day. People were asking 381 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: me like, because I was just like what you stared at, 382 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: because he was he didn't like. He didn't like the 383 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 1: whole bad loss. There's no such thing as a bad loss. 384 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: And I didn't say it was a bad loss. All 385 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: I said it is when you're on the radio. Yeah, 386 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: I said, you can learn from a game like that, 387 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: because they've been getting by with these bad first first 388 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: half and maybe you can say, all right, if we 389 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: have a bad first half against ever, we're not always 390 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 1: going to come back, so you better not have a 391 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: start like that, and so maybe you could just learn 392 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: from a loss. That's kind of what my point is being. 393 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: Was I love Nate sixty one? There's only one sixty 394 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: one and there might be some others, but I think 395 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: he's the best. He's the best. This job puts you 396 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: in some we'll acknowledge this in a second day.

And like 398 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: the fact that I just take it for granted that, 399 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: like I got high five Nate Newton every day on 400 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: my way through the hallway. It's just the like, yeah, 401 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: that is pretty The coolest you know, when you realize it. 402 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: When you realize is when you're talking to your friends 403 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: and you're just kind of talking about random stuff and 404 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: you mentioned somebody and they're like, wait, hola, what did 405 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: you just say. It's like, what are you talking about? 406 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 1: You say Nate and they're like, wait, are you talking 407 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: about Nate Newton? Like, yeah, perennial pro bowl er Nate 408 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: Newton gives me crap about my sneaker collection. Yeah he does. No, 409 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: It's it's actually pretty fun. That's what I love about 410 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: it because he's he's like one of us. He has 411 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: in his mind, but he's not really you know, he's 412 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 1: but he is, but he's been in his mind. He's like, hey, 413 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: he's one of us. He's the jokes laughed, you know, 414 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: he'll talk to you know, Amber, Bob Kickers, and he'll 415 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: talk to everyone. He's got a thing for everyone. But 416 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: you know, he's a six time pro bowler. That should 417 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: be the ring of water. I'm like, let's not forget 418 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: that truth all right now, Dave. Uh, we got the 419 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 1: elephant in the room, or more like that razor back 420 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 1: in the room. Yeah, which you want to tell us 421 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: how every there's there's I just know there's gonna be 422 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: like at least five people who didn't see me wearing 423 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: the jersey in the first segment and just ran to 424 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: Twitter just like, oh you patience is a virtue. Okay. 425 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: We didn't want to lead off with college talk after 426 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: a forty point win. Okay, we actually thought about moving 427 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: it to tomorrow, and Day was like, he was like, non, 428 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: have to deal with all that. I am a man 429 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: of my word. I think anybody can relate to this. 430 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,479 Speaker 1: We trick ourselves as fans. I went into you know, 431 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: we played well against Alabama. I was like, seasons lost. Anyway, 432 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: this is a bad LSU team. We got nothing to lose. 433 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna play Doug nust Meyer's kid. This will be fun. 434 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,959 Speaker 1: News flash. It wasn't fun, and I like, I thought, like, 435 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: because you make a public bet like this, you're just 436 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: thinking about that in the back of your mind the 437 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: whole game. And I just we've you were busy, you 438 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: and I know you don't care. But we made Arkansas. 439 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: I had like five yards of offense the whole first half, 440 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 1: an LSU just could not capitalize, Like we could not 441 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: couldn't put punt, We turn over in the red zone. 442 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 1: So it's ten to three at halftime. Should three who 443 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: LSU should have been? Should have been at least seventeen 444 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 1: to three, if not more. And I just remember sitting 445 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: there at half to I'm just like, we're gonna I'm like, 446 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to wear this jersey, Chris, keep your 447 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: finger on the bar. I was like, I'm gonna have 448 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: to wear this jersey because we ran a wildcat in 449 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: the red zone for the first time this season. And 450 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: lo and behold, kJ Jefferson turns into freaking Johnny Manzelle. 451 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: He must have slipped six sacks in this. I'm not exaggerating. 452 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: He must have slipped out of six sacks like you 453 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: showed me. Yeah, yeah, he looks more like Nate Newton 454 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: than Johnny many. Honestly, he reminded, I thought I was 455 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: watching good Lsu JaMarcus Russell. That's what I was, just like, 456 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: we can't we can't bring this guy. I thought it was. 457 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: I told Nick, I was like, that's that's Matt. That's 458 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: a Matt Matt Jones. Matt Jones. Yeah, well that's that 459 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: big guy that could run. And you don't think he's 460 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 1: as fast as he is until he's striding down the 461 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: feet like that. Well he wasn't. He wasn't even killing 462 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,239 Speaker 1: us with his feet. So, I mean, he he had 463 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: some nice runs, but he'll just he'll take a blitz 464 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: and linebacker shake him off like he weighs one hundred 465 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: and twenty pounds and then sort of dance out to 466 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 1: the sideline and throw it to a wide open receiver. 467 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: Matt Jones by far my favorite player to ever play 468 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: at Arkansas because he was his Yeah it is no 469 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: but but he came back and won the next year. 470 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: But but Matt was. I mean, he was just this big, tall, 471 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: white kid that was faster than everyone thought. He could 472 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: play receiver, could play quarterback, played basketball, He was a 473 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: great dunker. He just he was he was awesome. Yeah, 474 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: it's fitting that I'm wearing his jersey because it's also 475 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: John Stephen Jones, true Gary's grandson. Third stream quarterback Matt Jones. 476 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: He tortured us for like it felt like five years 477 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: the Hail Mary game and Little Rock and and LSU 478 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: had an what I think, we won six in a row, 479 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: and so it's fitting they they tortured us on Saturday. 480 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: But the gut when it gets over time, I mean 481 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: just like we were saying over time's terrible. But um 482 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: but we you know, through an interception and then our 483 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: freshman kicker makes the kick and then I didn't realize 484 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: that this was an LSU dance. Yeah, I just thought 485 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: it was like the new popular dance that all the 486 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: kids are doing. But it's an LSU dance. Yeah, yes, 487 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: it's the gritty Jamar Chase and Justin Jefferson made it 488 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: a thing during the National championship season. They danced in 489 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: the ends and well they so our kicker, who looked 490 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,959 Speaker 1: more like, yeah he did our dance on our field. 491 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: After he walked off like it, I like, hey, that's 492 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: almost I can't act like I don't like I'm the 493 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: kids that dude get the get like this song, y'all 494 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: play somebody did that like earlier this year. Yeah, after 495 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: they beat we've freaking birl If they beat beat LSU, 496 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: We've lost like five games, six games. I can't keep 497 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: track of it anymore, but it's I'd do it all 498 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 1: over again for the twenty nineteen season. But it's been 499 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: rough times for the Fighting Tigers and all all credit, 500 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: all all credit to the hog fan. They played a 501 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: better game, and I love you know this. I love 502 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: to LSU loves to act like Arkansas is kind of 503 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 1: beneath them. We don't really treat them as a rivalry. 504 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: But I don't like it when they have the boot. 505 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: I don't like it at all. But no, I'm like, 506 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: as soon as Arkansas breaks the streak, I'm like, I'm 507 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: gonna need that back not to get caught. I was 508 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 1: gonna ask for someone who has an LSU logo tattooed 509 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 1: on his arm, how does it feel to wear an 510 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: Arkansas jersey? I mean, I don't like it, but I 511 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 1: would feel worse fields Obama jersey. No, I'm like, you know, 512 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: I just said I want to beat them. I definitely 513 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: don't like that they have the boot, but like Arkansas's 514 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: fourth or fifth on my on my to do rivalry. Yeah, 515 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: just so we know, just so, I mean, as I said, 516 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: I'm trying to sweep the floor here this year, and 517 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm talking about you haven't had a year 518 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: and it's never happened. But when I'm in the floor, 519 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: I'm talking about upstairs where we work. Because Texas, Derek 520 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: out A and m Rob finally out LSU and then 521 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: Mickey Missouri, We're coming for you and that will be 522 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: man and will Yeah, that will be the game. I 523 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: didn't say anything about Alabama this week. That's fine, true, 524 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: we don't have we don't have many Bama grads. Bet 525 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: with Mickey, Mickey, I'll try to. I'll try to real 526 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: quick to tie this back into any Sure, there's playing 527 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: a cowboy fans that don't care about college football. But 528 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: I was thinking about cowboy fans on Saturday night again. Well, 529 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 1: she was awful by our standards, and I went, I 530 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 1: was like, we're playing with house money. This is gonna 531 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: be fun. And by the second quarter, I was like, 532 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 1: I'm not having fun. I hate how much I want 533 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: to win this game. I feel and it reminded me 534 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: of last year where it's easy to just write it 535 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: off and be like, oh, we suck. I don't care. 536 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: But every weekend you're still sitting there on the couch 537 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: just exactly why am I so invested? It's ridiculous. I 538 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: did that in the in the Region final Arkansas Baylor. 539 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 1: We'd already won three games to almost get to the 540 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: Final four. Baylor so good, We're not gonna be Baylor. 541 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 1: It's fine, I'm not I'm fine. Whatever happens happens. I 542 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 1: broke my remote when they got down five to nothing, 543 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: five to nothing, I broke the remote. Batteries were flying 544 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: all over that all. I was like, I can't do it. 545 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: You can you say that you you're good, but you're not. 546 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: You wanna talk about your team, Well, it's the exact 547 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,479 Speaker 1: same thing. I couldn't turn it off this weekend. And 548 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: I was like, before the game, I told myself I 549 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: had plans, we were going out to dinner with friends. 550 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm just not tuning in. I'm not 551 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: gonna let them ruin my night. And I'm at dinner 552 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: with my freaking phone out turning game, like I can't 553 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 1: believe we're battling against freaking one in eight Kansas and 554 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: they're kicking our butts and then we pull back and 555 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:52,360 Speaker 1: get to overtime and losing overtime. It's a it's a disease. 556 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 1: I love it so much. I say this all the time. 557 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: You hear you, hear me make this speech all the time. 558 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: And it happens with Cowboy fans that are listening to you. 559 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: Don't choose to be a Texas fan or an LSU fan, 560 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: or Arkasas fan or a Cowboys fan. I mean, it 561 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: chooses you. It does. It chooses you unless you spend 562 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: a lot of money there and then it becomes a 563 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: choice that they made for you to something that's true. 564 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: But but to be a fan. Yeah, it's not a 565 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: it is it's it's it ropes you in. If you 566 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: have the choice to take it or leave it, then 567 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: we're not for you. This is just this show. This 568 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:27,639 Speaker 1: show is not for you us. Saturdays are great. I 569 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 1: never get anything. You should leave it that way. Yeah, 570 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: I'm kind of vious. Don't le anybody rope you into college. Else. 571 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: I sit there on Saturdays with like a bourbon in 572 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 1: my hand. I'm like, I could be out, I could 573 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: be out at dinner, I could be seeing friends. But 574 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: I'm letting a bunch of teenagers dictate my happiness of 575 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 1: my life choice that is that is absolutely ridiculous. All Right, 576 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: all right, that's enough for college football, because I really 577 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: don't want to talk about college football anymore, all right, 578 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: So let's get back to the Cowboys. Michael Gallup returned yesterday. 579 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: He three catches for forty two yards, including that big 580 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: fourth down reception we talked about. Talk to me about 581 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 1: like how that all played out from standpoint of him 582 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: coming back and Cedric Wilson, who has been kind of 583 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: the guy that has stepped up in his absence and 584 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: played really well, they kind of went from one end 585 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: the spectrum to the other, like he didn't play. I 586 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: think he had one snap yesterday. Is it the injury? 587 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: Maybe that's going on with him, and I have to 588 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: think that, yeah, I mean, because he was banged up 589 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: and they just didn't need another guy out there to 590 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: I mean, they probably was like a wait and see, 591 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: see how you feel. And but yeah, he didn't return 592 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,239 Speaker 1: punts early like early in the game, he didn't even 593 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: go out there to return punts, So I was thinking 594 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: maybe he was going to be inactive, so they just 595 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: didn't have to press it with him. Yeah, I think 596 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: because if you look at it, it's not even Yeah, 597 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: Michael Gallo came back and had a nice game, but 598 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: Noah Brown got snaps, Turner got snaps. I think he was. Yeah, 599 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: he was targeted in the end zone. Um, so they're 600 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: never just gonna be a team that we have three 601 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: guys and only three got no they rotate everybody. So 602 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: I think it was he is not all the way 603 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: healthy and we definitely don't need him if we're scoring 604 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: twenty nine points in a quarter. One thing that was 605 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 1: surprising to me yesterday in this game was Cowboys win big, obviously, 606 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: but the running game didn't seem to have the yards 607 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: you would normally see in a blowout. Zeke Whin fourteen 608 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: carries for forty one yards a two point nine average, 609 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: not great according to his standards Pollard Win eleven carries 610 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: for forty two yards three point eight average, again not great. Well, 611 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: you got surprised at all that they didn't get much 612 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: out of their running game yesterday in a game that 613 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: was a bit of a blowout or not a bit 614 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: of a definitely a blowout. I have a few thoughts. 615 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: You can go ahead a few yeah, yeah, I was 616 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: a little surprised too when in our view of how 617 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: Atlanta plays their safety so far back and so they 618 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: weren't like really really loading up to stop the run 619 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: because they were making sure they didn't get beat with 620 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: deep balls. You didn't see a lot of that either, 621 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: so it was kind of an odd defense. And when 622 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: you think of the score and all that stuff, yeah, 623 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: you would have thought a little bit more rushing yards. 624 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: The stats were a little weird for a forty point 625 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: game like that. They weren't as gaudy as you would think. 626 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: I think Dave makes a good point. They pulled the 627 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: starters in the middle third quarter, so that that that 628 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: helps some of that and plush when your when you 629 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: get eight points just from block punt and a touchdown, 630 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: I mean that that adds to it. That doesn't show 631 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 1: up on stats. On top of everything about that is right, 632 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: the passing game was just working early on. And again 633 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: that goes back to and I don't I haven't watched 634 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: the tape. I don't know how similarly they played it, 635 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: but that goes back to Dak and Mike McCarthy's point 636 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: of like, yeah, please play us that way, Please play 637 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: us the way that you think is a blueprint to 638 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: stop us. We can throw on you if you if 639 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: that's what you want us to do. So I think 640 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: it's a combination of that. I think it's worth pointing 641 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: out probably thirty rushing yards got called back by holding penalties, 642 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: whether they were bogus or not bogus, So Tony Pollard 643 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,719 Speaker 1: had at least two nice runs get wiped out by calls. 644 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: And then not only do you pull the starters, but 645 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: you're running the ball all through the late game just 646 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: trying to get out of there, a lot of it 647 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: being Corey Clement running behind backups, which is gonna kill 648 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: your average. So I think that three point three average 649 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: by it. And then and then also to Nick's point, 650 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,959 Speaker 1: anytime you get a like I don't want to call 651 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 1: it a game swinging touchdown, but the punt block just 652 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: kind of sealed the competitive part of the game, right, 653 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: And that requires no there's no drive there, there's no offense. 654 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: So that's a whole point swing that's taken away just 655 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: by a special team's play. So stuff like that kind 656 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: of makes the box score look quonky. Sometimes it was 657 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: nice watching the game and being like, you know, because 658 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: a lot of times before we watched the game, we're like, 659 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: why are they not running the ball? Run the freaking ball? 660 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 1: And it wasn't one of those It's just like where 661 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: that just became a secondary thing in the back of 662 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: your head. I did, It didn't even come to my mind. 663 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: So actually you're saying that, I'm like, oh, okay, I 664 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 1: didn't even realize that. That's just how well the passing 665 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: game was working. That's just how well they were utilizing 666 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: all their different weapons to the point where you weren't 667 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 1: even upset at them not running the ball as much, 668 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: not utilize and Zeke as much. I think he did enough. 669 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: He did what he needed to do. He got in 670 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: the end zone too, So it's like it was just 671 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: working and it's just going to happen that way sometimes 672 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: depending on who the opponent is. I do also, I 673 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: remember it feels it's completely irrelevant and feels like ancient history. 674 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: But in the early part of the game, when it 675 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: was still in doubt, I remember being like, oh, they're 676 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: running on first and second and long a lot, and 677 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: I don't like it with how the pass is working. 678 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: So and they're gonna tell you you still have to 679 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: establish that and that's part of balance. I get it. 680 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: But one thing was working really well, and that's I know, 681 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: running the ball is always conducive to success, but whatever 682 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: I mean, if the pass is working, take it. I 683 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: don't care for your thoughts on the offensive line yesterday, 684 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: Conna Williams continues to have some issues with regards the 685 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: penalties and what were your thoughts overall if you're looking 686 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: for a negative from a lady point when that's probably it. Yeah, 687 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: I mean monro the old off the offensive Connor Williams, 688 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: to be clear, and I'm not trying to pick on 689 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: the guy, but I think he got flagged three times yesterday. Yeah, 690 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: one wouldn't call it back, but I mean it was 691 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: a touch was that the touchdown? It was a fumble 692 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,959 Speaker 1: on Zeke Um declined fumbled at the end of the run. 693 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: Was gonna he was gonna wipe out that play too 694 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: if he didn't wut the penalty on the touchdown. The 695 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 1: play we're talking about earlier where Dak at the I 696 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: mean Zeke passed it no brown brown down the field, 697 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:31,719 Speaker 1: but he I think there were it was two holdings 698 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: in a chop block like that call. It was two 699 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: holdings in a chop block on the same play. No, No, 700 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: Connor got flagged for two holdings in a chop block, 701 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: and I think one of the holdings was kind of bogus. 702 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: Sorry and got away on the on the chop block, 703 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: I mean, because I heard this in the press block, 704 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: it just kind of fell he kind of he fell 705 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: down like that there down to press box. Yeah, I mean, 706 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: I'm the Dallas Cowboys have never committed a penalty in 707 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: the eyes of Mickey Spa. And the thing about Mickey's 708 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: got his headphones on right because he's watching the game 709 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: and it's just always gonna be louder. So he's just 710 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: you know, he's just like, I don't realize he has 711 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:08,879 Speaker 1: a hit phone done. I guess. I don't know if 712 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: he was doing that bad call refs he fell down 713 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 1: or he fell down, you know, I don't know what 714 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: it was, but like he was frustrated with him for 715 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 1: falling down or whether it was the rest Yeah, yeah, 716 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: but Connor heard it. You know, he turned back and 717 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 1: he was like, you can you can nitpick it all 718 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: you want. Maybe maybe he should have only been flagged once. 719 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: He got flagged three times. I think so that I 720 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: think that puts him at twelve on the year's let's 721 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: talk about this, can he I mean, clearly they would 722 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: put Connor McGovern in there if they thought he was better, right, 723 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 1: because Connor McGovern's under contract, he's probably gonna be here. 724 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: Connor Williams is probably not going to be here. I 725 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: don't I don't think. You know, somebody brought this up 726 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: yesterday and I kind of just dismissed it. But I'm 727 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: starting to wonder if maybe there is something to it. 728 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: Is the sub package that they use for Connor McGovern 729 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: the reason maybe why they're not willing to do that 730 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 1: because they see value in what they're doing with him 731 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 1: there fifty over ten though. I mean, I said, I 732 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 1: get it, and you're right, That's why I dismissed it. 733 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: But then after I was doing it later, I was like, 734 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: but there's it's hard for me to believe McGovern is 735 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: not as at least as good. And if he's the 736 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: guy you think maybe here longer, why wouldn't if he's 737 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: not trying, you know, he's worse. He got a penalty too. Now, 738 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: let don't forget he got in there and second he 739 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: played for Zach and he got a penalty. But let's 740 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: don't underestimate what's happening with McGovern because this is not 741 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:36,320 Speaker 1: a fun, cute thing that Kellen Moore's doing. This is 742 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 1: a needed thing. They need a fullback, they need short 743 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: yardage running, and he's providing that. He's a big body guy, 744 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: bigger than any fullback, but agile enough to get I 745 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: mean that's one thing. Get your ass up there. I mean, 746 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: like get off the ball because Zeke and Poller are 747 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: coming quick. So and he does that. He's doing a 748 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: really good job. That's blocking in space because a lot 749 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 1: of times, you know, a big guy like that, I 750 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: mean Micah Parsons is showing on the other side, he 751 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: can like slither past you and stuff like that. So 752 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: it's not as easy as you think just to block 753 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 1: in space for a big guard like that. I think 754 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: he's doing a great job. I think it's needed and 755 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 1: it's helping these red zones. So I don't want to 756 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 1: take that away. But something's got to happen to left guard, 757 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: can't I mean, couldn't you teach Connor Williams to do that? 758 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: I think you could do it. I don't a good point, 759 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: I just I mean, what we've always heard about him 760 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 1: is that he's athletics more than strong tackle. Not trying 761 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: to take away from Connor McGovern, but I just got 762 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: to imagine you could that that's not a skill set 763 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: that no one else has. That's all I'm trying to say. 764 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: That's a good point. Um, Yeah, I think so, I think, 765 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: and you you hear whispers of this around the facility. 766 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: It's it's different right now because Tyron Smith is hurt, 767 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: and I think they don't want to mess with the 768 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: continuity or just the vibe while they're arguably best linemen 769 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: or at least one A and one B with Zach 770 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:53,720 Speaker 1: while he's out. But when Tyrone's back healthy playing left tackle, 771 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 1: I think, I think that job's up for grabs, honestly, 772 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: and I don't They might not ever make some big 773 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: announcement about it, but that gives you the two Connors 774 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: and depending I just assume Terrence Steele will move back 775 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: to the right tackle when Tyron's healthy. If that's the case, 776 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: then throw a Lyle Collins in there and between the 777 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: three the way back up. You said you think still 778 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: will go back to right tackle. I think so, Lyle. 779 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: I think so. Really, that's that's kind of that's not 780 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: something we've really talked about before they did it. They 781 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,760 Speaker 1: already did that when Lyle came back from his suspension. 782 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 1: They were like, no, Steal's good here, Steals good at 783 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: right tackle. It wasn't that also because of the continuity, 784 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: the continuity, and I thought we'd even talked about it 785 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: last week that you know, maybe the reason why you 786 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: move Steele is because you're thinking, hey, we want to 787 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,520 Speaker 1: get we want to get a Lyle back into shape 788 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: so that when Tyron comes back, he's in his normal spot. 789 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: I can't predict to a certainty what they're gonna do, 790 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: and Lyle played really well yesterday, but I don't. But 791 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: you think, again, left guards your problem spot. Else is 792 00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: another guy that can play left guard. If you're trying 793 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 1: to fit that, moving Steel to right tackle gives you 794 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: as many options as I could see that scenario. Yeah, 795 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: I could see that. That's that makes not an issue 796 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: of Lyle being not as good at right tackle, but 797 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: give you the most position playing. I understand that. And 798 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,879 Speaker 1: if it's a situation where they moved in the guard, 799 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: that makes sense. If you're saying Steel moves back and 800 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: Lyle goes to the bitch, I have a hard time 801 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,720 Speaker 1: seeing that. Yeah, I don't see that either. And I think, honestly, 802 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: I think if they would have decided to put Steele 803 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 1: to replace him at right tackle when Tyrant comes back, 804 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 1: I feel like they just would have put Tyrant. I mean, 805 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: I like all over there. Yeah, but I really like 806 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: that left guard spot. Now I think I think, yeah, 807 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: I think that might need to be the it happens. 808 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: It's it's a really interesting conversation because and I'm the 809 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: one that just said, you moved Steal back to right tackle, 810 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: but Tyrant getting hurt is maybe a blessing in disguise 811 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: in the sense that you don't technically have to bench 812 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 1: Terrence Steele. You know, you didn't want to pull him 813 00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,439 Speaker 1: off after he played so well and be like sorry, kid, 814 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: but now he had to switch jobs and the old 815 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: starters back in his old spot playing well. It's a 816 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,879 Speaker 1: little smoother of a transition than just yanking the guy 817 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 1: out of the lineup. So there's a lot of interesting 818 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 1: stuff they could do. Point being, trust me, the Cowboys 819 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: have left guard circled as a concern, and once Tyron 820 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: Smith is back healthy, I think it's at least something 821 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: that they're going to look at I don't. They don't 822 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: have blinders on about this. Especially they already knew penalties 823 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: were a problem, and he just got three more. I 824 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,839 Speaker 1: mean you can't ignore that. Ye all right, we're gonna 825 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: take our final break. When we come back, we're gonna 826 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about the defense. There are some 827 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 1: big plays and some some players that play really well 828 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: yesterday on defense.

What he 902 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 1: said in the press conference, I'll never forget to call 903 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 1: it a press conference, is not a press conference. And 904 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 1: he sat at his locker, facing into his locker. Oh yeah, yeah, 905 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't turn around to like, you know he said that 906 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: was Mo. Yeah, you know. It was his second year 907 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: in the league. Um, He's just like, I do it again. 908 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: That's the way I play like. It was third and 909 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,240 Speaker 1: eight and it was like a slant for three yards. 910 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:07,959 Speaker 1: I mean, catch the ball, tackle him and you punt 911 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys have a chance to win this and 912 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: he just dove on the guy pi first down. Game 913 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: was over and he was like, that's I would do 914 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 1: it again. And we were lolling, really because if you 915 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 1: did it again and you can't, oh okay, as it's funny. 916 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 1: And then I called I can't believe I said Mo yesterday. 917 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: I was doing that all day twenty four. I was 918 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 1: like Mos out there and who Kelvin Joseph hey Lsue cornerback. 919 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 1: Is it funny that Mo goes and wins a championship 920 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: with Kansas City? Then, I mean just letting you know. 921 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,439 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to die. Yeah, he wasn't like a 922 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: major player or that team he was on. He was 923 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 1: on the one hundred and thirty pounds. Yeah. I think 924 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: about that, And the answer Chris is no. I think 925 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,439 Speaker 1: about that all the time. Like Anthony Hinchins has gone 926 00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: on to great success with the Chiefs. He won a 927 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 1: super Bowl with them, and people are like, oh see 928 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 1: what happens. I'm like, no, the Cowboys played that perfectly. 929 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,240 Speaker 1: Like and by the way, people are killing him absolutely. 930 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: Who bands are killing him? Right? They have? They have 931 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:12,879 Speaker 1: a few guys, don't think I know Blake Bells back 932 00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 1: with them, back with Casey. I believe Charvarius Word is 933 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 1: still there. Um, that was a weird one. By the way, 934 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: Damian Wilson left, He's not there anymore. Remember him, Charvarius 935 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 1: were we could talk about? Oh well, actually tomorrow it's 936 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 1: cruel tomorrow. Tomorrow we got one of our old lunch 937 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 1: breaks coming back through for a little visit. Miss Dio 938 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: Wall who is now a news reporter, like she's big 939 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,280 Speaker 1: time now, she's a news anchor up in Kansas City. 940 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,439 Speaker 1: She's going to be joining us tomorrow talk a little 941 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 1: bit of Chiefs with her, what her thoughts are on 942 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,320 Speaker 1: that Chief's team and what it's like there the city 943 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 1: following the Chiefs. So we'll do that tomorrow. It'll be fun. 944 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:51,839 Speaker 1: That sounds cool. Yeah, I mean we'll get a chance 945 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:53,879 Speaker 1: to catch up with her a weekends. It's fun because 946 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 1: I just said, like, I mean, this is gonna be 947 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: must CTV. Some mahomes and dak and all that stuff. 948 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 1: But even after this raid is when I assume everybody 949 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: in case he's still kind of hanging out on the 950 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,879 Speaker 1: ledge just like we thought. We thought we were gonna 951 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 1: be ten to know what the hell is going on? 952 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 1: You know what was interesting and it's rare to happen. 953 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,479 Speaker 1: You know, you have a noon game, you go home, 954 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 1: you watch the game, and I bet I guarantee a 955 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 1: lot of the Cowboys coaches are watching it. Because if 956 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 1: we think about it, and the next ten days, right man, 957 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 1: the next eleven days and the next eleven days, you're 958 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 1: both teams. You've got both these teams because you got 959 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: so I mean, you're studying. It's good opportunities to look 960 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: at both of these teams, and I think I think 961 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 1: the Raiders game is going to be tough. I honestly, 962 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: if the Cowboys can get two and one out of 963 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 1: these next three, that will be huge for them because 964 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 1: I mean, these next three games are gonna be tough, Chiefs, Raiders, 965 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 1: and then Saints on the road. And say what you 966 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 1: want to say about those teams and how they're performing 967 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,480 Speaker 1: this year, they still are going to be tough. And 968 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: I think before the season we all circled this three 969 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 1: game stretch it's in. This might be the mediest part 970 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: of their schedule, and I think it still is. Regardless 971 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: what you think of their records right now, I would 972 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: which first of all, I think they have the potential 973 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 1: to win all three of course, yeah, yeah, yeah, I would. 974 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 1: Even one and two is fine as long as the 975 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,439 Speaker 1: win is New Orleans. Again, the AFC NFC thing, I mean, 976 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 1: you would prefer that not to happen, but you can 977 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:19,880 Speaker 1: serve so what you would be eight and four and four? Yeah, 978 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: and you did the thing about is both both NFC 979 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 1: team eaton NFC East teams that played yesterday One you 980 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 1: didn't expect them, either of them to win, but they 981 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 1: both won, so they're kind of hanging around there. Somebody 982 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: on Twitter said to me, like, go, like, I don't 983 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 1: even know, Like, congratulations Cowboys. You beat a five hundred team. 984 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: You know. Great. I'm like, well, that's good because that's 985 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: about all that's left on the schedule, right, that's the 986 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 1: That's what the NFL is. I mean, the teams you've 987 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 1: got on the schedule, including the Chiefs. What are they? 988 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 1: They're six and four? Now, yeah, so I mean Raiders 989 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: are right there above, and the Saints are a little 990 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: bit above, and you know, Arizona is good, but I 991 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: mean some of these other ones are down even lower 992 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 1: than that. So that that's what the NFL is. So cool, 993 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: I mean, if you you know, and that's such a 994 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 1: dumb argument too. You beat a team no, no, no, no, 995 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 1: you annihilated a team like that. You annihilated a the 996 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:11,800 Speaker 1: seventh seed in the playoffs. You annihilated them by forty 997 00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,879 Speaker 1: points because you were pissed off. Can't stress enough how 998 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:18,840 Speaker 1: rare that is forty points or you know, it works, 999 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,799 Speaker 1: It always goes this way. The Carolina game is a 1000 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:25,320 Speaker 1: perfect example. You go up big, you pull your guys, 1001 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 1: you kind of take your foot off the gas, and 1002 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,919 Speaker 1: the final scores eight points because they pay their guys too, 1003 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,839 Speaker 1: and they're gonna keep trying. And then you're questioning whether 1004 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: dig should have come out, Like that's the NFL. It 1005 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 1: is not normal to go up forty and stay up forty, 1006 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 1: like even when the starters come out, you're still in 1007 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 1: the third quarter, right right, This was one of those 1008 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: you saying bolts like killing everybody in running and all 1009 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden the end, he's kind of like waving 1010 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: already and blowing kisses and all that, you know, like 1011 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: the last yeah, yeah, the last two or three. Right, 1012 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 1: It's like that's that's what that was. I mean, that 1013 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 1: was forty points off the gas for the final. We 1014 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 1: didn't even talking about the defensive line, No they did, 1015 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: We didn't. We haven't said the name, like I on 1016 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 1: what was it Friday when we were talking about the 1017 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 1: game and all that, Like, I personally thought that this 1018 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,360 Speaker 1: defense wouldn't be able to piece it all together without 1019 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory in the lineup. So I really thought that 1020 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 1: him missing that game was going to affect the defense 1021 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: overall in all three levels. So and they didn't, and 1022 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,799 Speaker 1: a guy like Dorian's Armstrong surprised me. He did an 1023 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: extent been of a surprise, right, I mean, this is 1024 00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 1: kind of oh, this is kind of who this guy 1025 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 1: has been through training camp all this year, going back 1026 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 1: to training camp, he's been as solid as you want 1027 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,840 Speaker 1: from that position, and he had another solid game. But 1028 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 1: he stepped up this game like a game, you know, 1029 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 1: sometimes it happens where you need a guy to step 1030 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 1: up and then they just don't come to play because 1031 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 1: he's giving more. He has more on his shoulder, right, 1032 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:56,359 Speaker 1: so he has more responsibility in the game and there 1033 00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 1: sometimes they don't show up to that level. But he did. 1034 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 1: And then you we talked about Mica Parsons that we 1035 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 1: were trying to figure out what they we're gonna do 1036 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: with him, Well, he worked out pretty well. And then Mica, 1037 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 1: I mean he again was able to rush the passer 1038 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,320 Speaker 1: and do all that while he needed to get done. 1039 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 1: So to me, I can't believe we won this long 1040 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 1: we talked about every time. I can't believe we got 1041 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: fifty minutes in before we said the name Dorian's Armstrong 1042 00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 1: and that's not okay, which bringing us back to football, yeah, 1043 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 1: and Cowboys. Hey, when we go got college football, Amber's 1044 00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:33,799 Speaker 1: gonna be like, I'm out on this conversation. It's I 1045 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,279 Speaker 1: like my Saturdays. I'm not gonna I can't go there 1046 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 1: with you just be I say it all the time. 1047 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 1: I don't care what you do in training camp. I've 1048 00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 1: been burned too many times by that. And it's not 1049 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 1: it's not all Doran's his fault. He twisted his ankle, 1050 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 1: he was out for a while. McCarthy said yesterday he 1051 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 1: was kind of he felt like he was knocking the 1052 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 1: rust off against Denver last week. But this is still 1053 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 1: I think he had two and a half career sacks 1054 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 1: coming into this game, so he gets twenty thirty percent 1055 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,879 Speaker 1: of his career total just by getting one and then 1056 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 1: adding a pump block to it. That's what we've always known. 1057 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 1: He's a special team's beast and to show up that 1058 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: way and create a touchdown. Can't get over that stat 1059 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: you know, I'm a stat nerd of course, I just 1060 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: can't get over the fact that the last player that 1061 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: did that in the NFL blocked a punt and sacked 1062 00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: I got a sack in the same game was Terrell 1063 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 1: Basham for the Jets, so the guy on the left 1064 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:24,960 Speaker 1: side of the line. Then the last defensive end to 1065 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,800 Speaker 1: do it was Robert Quinn, who also played for the Cowboys. 1066 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 1: To it just shows a sense of versatility that to 1067 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 1: do that and you don't see guys that are that 1068 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 1: are you know, the best pass rusher on the team 1069 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 1: for that game also, but he's staying on special teams. 1070 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure Bones was like, no, we still 1071 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 1: need you yeah on there, and Derek, you and I 1072 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: actually both called that, And then that's rare because we 1073 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 1: were always thinking like, well, probably don't want to rush 1074 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 1: the punt here, but the score was out of hand. 1075 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 1: Literally right before happen, We're both like, yeah, yeah, go 1076 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 1: for it. I would go for the block, and You're 1077 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: like yeah, you know, like you're probably only gonna get 1078 00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:59,200 Speaker 1: a five yard and You're like, I don't care if 1079 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 1: you get fifteen, go rush it now the black part 1080 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 1: touch down. I had a moment last night where I 1081 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:09,720 Speaker 1: realized that I'm already taking Micah Parsons for granted, because 1082 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 1: we huddle after every game and kind of talk about 1083 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 1: what needs to be written about what the major storylines were. Yeah, 1084 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: basically I was halftime I was like, y'a so. I 1085 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:23,400 Speaker 1: think Nick was like yeah so, and then Mica obviously, 1086 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:26,920 Speaker 1: And in my head I'm like, really, like, Mica, you 1087 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:29,440 Speaker 1: do that much. This is just in my head. I 1088 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:33,160 Speaker 1: go home and start watching you know, highlights and press 1089 00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 1: conference clippings. I'm like, oh, yeah, he had another sack 1090 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:41,239 Speaker 1: and another tackle for loss, and kind oh yeah, I mean, 1091 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 1: it was an absolutely phenomenal play. He's got what six 1092 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 1: on the season. Now, just get him on the field. 1093 00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,319 Speaker 1: I'm tired of arguing about what to do with them 1094 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 1: and all that. I just think, you know, and I'll 1095 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:53,879 Speaker 1: say this people that still want to say that, this 1096 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 1: isn't the year for it. This isn't the year. He's 1097 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,120 Speaker 1: a linebacker. You hope to get these two defensive ends back, 1098 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,360 Speaker 1: and you're gonna be great now next year. If you 1099 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,440 Speaker 1: want to make him a rusher, that's fine. He won't 1100 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 1: be a pass rusher with Gregory Andy Law. I mean, 1101 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,719 Speaker 1: because someone's gonna have to give there. I could see 1102 00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:11,239 Speaker 1: if they want to make that move, but I think 1103 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,359 Speaker 1: for right now, where this team is, I think he's 1104 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 1: better as a linebacker. And then rush him all over 1105 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 1: the place, you don't sure where he's gonna line up 1106 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 1: at times. It's funny. I thought about this this morning too. 1107 00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 1: When you're good, you're going to be in line for 1108 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:26,399 Speaker 1: a lot of awards, right, Like DA's in the MVP race. 1109 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 1: We have no idea if he'll win it. We won't 1110 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 1: know that for a long time come back Player of 1111 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 1: the Year, come sure, Absolutely, Treyvon Diggs, he's gonna be 1112 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,359 Speaker 1: in the chase for Defensive Player of the Year. But 1113 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett's having a hell of a season. Like they're 1114 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,400 Speaker 1: all these variables. I'm telling you right now, Mike is 1115 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 1: gonna win Defensive Rookie of the Year. I don't have 1116 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:46,760 Speaker 1: a question. I can't imagine a scenario where he doesn't 1117 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 1: unless he gets hurt, which knock on wood, Like it's 1118 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 1: not even close. Like Patrick Surtan's having a nice season, 1119 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,399 Speaker 1: but he doesn't have the stats that I mean talking 1120 00:53:56,440 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 1: about a guy that plays linebacker that's got six and 1121 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: a half sacks, right, that's is that the number six 1122 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: at six six six oh No, six six sacks, six 1123 00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,319 Speaker 1: sacks at the halfway point of the season, to go 1124 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:13,200 Speaker 1: with like twelve tackles for loss, and he's gonna finish 1125 00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 1: with north of one hundred tackles, like, just send it 1126 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,040 Speaker 1: to him, got to be historic. Send it to him now. 1127 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:21,000 Speaker 1: And there's no competence. More than anything, it's just the 1128 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,839 Speaker 1: fact that he has the ability to do all of 1129 00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:25,799 Speaker 1: that stuff as a rookie. They're putting all this on 1130 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:27,920 Speaker 1: this plate to be able to learn this. And that's 1131 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 1: why running backs typically do a pretty good job as 1132 00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 1: rookies because they come in and they know what they 1133 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 1: gotta do. They run the ball, corners, same thing, cover 1134 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:38,319 Speaker 1: your guy, but linebacker to do all these things. Ever 1135 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,279 Speaker 1: since they took the Green Dot off, he has been 1136 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 1: even better, Like he has at the Green Dot yesterday. 1137 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 1: Because I noticed Jeffer Curs only had seventy well I 1138 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: don't he only had like seventy seventy percent of the plays. 1139 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 1: It made me think that somebody else may have had. 1140 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: Curse made a great play, by the way, because not 1141 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 1: only did earlier in the game, not only did he 1142 00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 1: knock the guy the ball away, but he was the 1143 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:01,799 Speaker 1: only one that knew it. Like he turned around and 1144 00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 1: he was like challenging challenges, that awesome challenge, and he 1145 00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 1: I think he saw it hit the ground, yeah, or 1146 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 1: heard it maybe even maybe How do you miss that. 1147 00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 1: All these refs out there, don't get me started. That's 1148 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 1: a lot of eyeballs. And I didn't see that it 1149 00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 1: is I saw it from the press. Can we just 1150 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: mentioned Jordan Lewis's name. I was actually would let me 1151 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 1: get to him. This is what we get for doing 1152 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,959 Speaker 1: twelve minutes on college football. That's true. Sorry, talk about 1153 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis man yesterday he had I thought early in 1154 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 1: the game it seemed like they that was their wal 1155 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,120 Speaker 1: though they were going after him. They wanted to challenge him. 1156 00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 1: They thought he was the weak link, and he was 1157 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:41,080 Speaker 1: play after play, making plays on the ball and making 1158 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 1: sure they weren't completing passes. Probably from the time I 1159 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:47,439 Speaker 1: saw the scene in All or Nothing four years ago 1160 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:51,960 Speaker 1: when Jordan Lewis as a rookie just took it to 1161 00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:55,799 Speaker 1: Deaz at practice just basically got in a fight with him, 1162 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,040 Speaker 1: like had called the whole team out and went one 1163 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 1: on one. I was like, I of this guy. I 1164 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: like everything about him. I like the tenacity, the swagger. 1165 00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 1: He's not a Pro Bowl cornerback, he's five ten. That 1166 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't matter. I mean he he got a break 1167 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 1: up on Kyle Pitts yesterday, and that is about as 1168 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 1: much of a mismatch in terms of size as you 1169 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 1: can find in the NFL. A pro maybe five nine cornerback. 1170 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:28,320 Speaker 1: They skying up on a mutant, a six six freak 1171 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:31,959 Speaker 1: of an athlete, and he's just uh he he, I'm sorry, 1172 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:35,800 Speaker 1: I'm rambling. He just everything about the way Jordan Lewis 1173 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:39,920 Speaker 1: approaches the game. I love. He's the swagger, the nacity, 1174 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: the can do attitude. Love it. The best thing that 1175 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey does. They're not the best thing, but one 1176 00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:49,880 Speaker 1: of the best things for him is Tyreek Hill, you know, 1177 00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 1: because you can't just put the best corner back on 1178 00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:56,200 Speaker 1: Kelsey Atlanta. I'm telling you now, they got to get 1179 00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,239 Speaker 1: Riddley back. Hopefully he's he'll be fine, and that that's 1180 00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:01,759 Speaker 1: a you know, big story for him. Hopefully he gets back, 1181 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:04,359 Speaker 1: you know, for him for his sake. But also they 1182 00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 1: need another playmaking receiver because if they don't, then you 1183 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 1: will just continue to put corners on Kyle Pitts and 1184 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 1: the Tree be a big old receiver that he probably 1185 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 1: won't be special until unless he's a tight end. You 1186 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 1: gotta give him some help so he can create more 1187 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 1: mismatches because as it stands right now, you're just not 1188 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: as worried about the other guys, but that you're right, 1189 00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:25,880 Speaker 1: You're totally right. But that's what's so amazing is like 1190 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 1: Trayvon digs On Kyle Pitts is at least a fair fight. 1191 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:32,840 Speaker 1: You know, Trayvon's a big, long guy. He can go 1192 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:35,520 Speaker 1: up and get the football. Jordan Lewis has just giving 1193 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 1: up so much side height and weight to that player 1194 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:42,240 Speaker 1: and to be able to defend him anyway incredibly impressive. 1195 00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 1: The ball wasn't high enough. Thing it needs to be, 1196 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 1: you know, fair. I mean, I mean rebounds, big guys 1197 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 1: get it, loose balls on the ground, little guys get 1198 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 1: it so that that that ball's got to be up higher. Yeah, 1199 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 1: but that Ryan definitely didn't have his best day, and 1200 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 1: it goes back to he goes we were talking about 1201 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:00,600 Speaker 1: on Friday. You know, maybe there was some thing too 1202 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:02,840 Speaker 1: how Quinn knows him and knows him really well that 1203 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 1: he created situations that maybe he knows he doesn't doesn't 1204 00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: choose to be in buss you that he doesn't choose 1205 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 1: to be in and he doesn't play his best in 1206 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:13,600 Speaker 1: So all around, I just think it was a really 1207 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 1: really well coached game and a really really well played 1208 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,800 Speaker 1: game for the Cowboys. This isn't it's not important toward 1209 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 1: like the success of the team or any of that, 1210 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 1: But just on a personal I'm so happy that Jordan 1211 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 1: and Anthony Brown both are getting picks, basically because so 1212 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 1: much goes into cornerback play that you never get credit for. 1213 00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:36,520 Speaker 1: People really only want to look at your picks or 1214 00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 1: what you're giving up. That's It was so amazing when 1215 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,640 Speaker 1: Byron Jones was named All Pro with like one interception 1216 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 1: in twenty or zero. I'm sorry, yeah, that's that's incredible. 1217 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:49,200 Speaker 1: It doesn't happen because the position is judged by picks. 1218 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 1: So both of those guys get like they're not going 1219 00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:53,439 Speaker 1: to get named to the Pro Bowl. But they're having 1220 00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: really solid seasons and are They are contributing to the 1221 00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:01,000 Speaker 1: success of this defense in a real way, and it's 1222 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 1: nice for it to pay off for them. With the 1223 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: stat line that makes people notice, Like we notice because 1224 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 1: we are paid to watch every down. But now you 1225 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,360 Speaker 1: look at it, you're like, damn, Anthony Brown's got three picks, 1226 00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:14,479 Speaker 1: that's a career high. Jordan Lewis has two picks. That's yeah, 1227 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: he only had five or four on his career coming 1228 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: into the year, So I mean, so it's just nice 1229 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:22,680 Speaker 1: to see them getting rewarded for hard work that would 1230 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 1: otherwise be going unnoticed. All Right, we appreciate you guys us. 1231 00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 1: We'll be back tomorrow. We'll start talking Cowboys versus Kansas City. 1232 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 1: As I say, we'll have Dea wall On joining us tomorrow, 1233 00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about those chiefs to then for 1234 00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 1: Nick Eatman, Dave Helmet, and Amber Garcia.
