Calvin's been around for a 20 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: long time. I know him in New York. We'll talk 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: with him. Cowboys ride high all of a sudden, Yes 22 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: they are. That big win against Philadelphia and another big 23 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: win against the Chiefs. Wow, ain't nobody talking about Jerry Jones? 24 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: Is moron. 25 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 3: We haven't heard that, lady. Yeah, they're just waiting. They're 26 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 3: just waiting for another chance, but right now they cannot 27 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 3: do it. I like the Cowboys right now, I mean 28 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 3: and offensively like. I like them in Detroit next Thursday 29 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 3: against the Line. If they win that one, I think 30 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 3: they're they're gonna run the table. Yeah, I mean, that's 31 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 3: a big game. And the Lions are scuffling a little bit. 32 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: They're gonna be without some of their weapons and they 33 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: can't get any pressure on the quarterback right now. 34 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 3: I'm just Jordan Love had all day he did No. 35 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: The Lions are in trouble. You fall, you fall in line, 36 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 3: and you start losing some of those games you're supposed 37 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 3: to win early, and they catch up to you. 38 00:01:58,720 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: They sure do. 39 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: Also, Fuzzy Zeller, the golfer has passed a where we'll 40 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: talk about his legacy and you know where it fits 41 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: in what should be there, what shouldn't be there. So 42 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: we got a lot of stuff to get to. But 43 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: I mean, talk about a bummer of a game to watch. 44 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: Forget about. 45 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: It wasn't that one of the Bengals to win or lose, 46 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: or the Ravens to win. 47 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 4: Or lose. 48 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: Just was a terrible game from the turnover standpoint, and 49 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: Lamar was awful. Just three turnovers. They lose a game 50 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: thirty two to fourteen. I don't know that a couple 51 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: of touchdowns, taking off the board, fumbles just Lamar tossed 52 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: the ball up at the goal line at the two 53 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: or three yard like like like just kind of flicked it. 54 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: I don't know what it was, but there Baltimore. 55 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: Lost four fumbles, including two by Lamar, and he also 56 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: threw an interception, so he had the three and just 57 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: a really bad game. There's six and six in second place. 58 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: It's to have a chance at it because of course 59 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: Steelers are just one game ahead of them, so and 60 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: they play each other twice exactly, so I have two 61 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: games so it can be decided there or whatnot. But 62 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with you, Carrie. I mean, I'm not 63 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 1: here to defend Lamar, but I'm not so sure that 64 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: it's just Lamar. When I see how bad the Ravens 65 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: are this season. 66 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 3: Yeah it isn't. But this game, I'm putting it on Lamar. Okay, 67 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 3: and you know, you know I'm a big Lamar supporter 68 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: from day one. This is the worst Lamar has played 69 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: since his rookie year. He really looked bad. And it's 70 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 3: not just this game, it's the last three. 71 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: He has no touchdowns the last the last three five interceptions. 72 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 2: Is that it or five. 73 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 3: Turnover five interceptions? Yeah, five turnovers. But this is the 74 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 3: worst he's looked in a while. 75 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 5: Now. 76 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's health, and I'm not going 77 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 3: to even get into that because it doesn't really matter 78 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 3: if you're out there playing I say it all the time, 79 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 3: if you're out there playing your fair game. And so 80 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 3: for him to come out there and be so casual 81 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: and lacks of days ago with the ball and just 82 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 3: loose with the ball like you have to protect the 83 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 3: ball to win, doesn't matter how good you five year 84 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 3: when he was just like he just threw the ball 85 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 3: up like yeah, just it's not it's not sound football. 86 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 3: And that comes to that comes from top. But as 87 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 3: a star player, you got to know that, especially with 88 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens history in these last three years or 89 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 3: so in the playoffs with chances to win, they never 90 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 3: take care of the ball. So to go into a 91 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 3: big game, to go into a big game like this 92 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 3: and you be Lamar Jackson and to go, and it. 93 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: Was a big game. You know what, the Bengals at home. 94 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: You're at home, Joe Burrow's first game back. Some russ 95 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: gonna be on him, but you already know what you're 96 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: at stake. And to lose like they did in that 97 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: fashion to a three and eight Bengals team. 98 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 3: And Rob those games happen, but when you are one 99 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 3: in five, those games can't happen. 100 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 2: You gotta be perfect from here on out. And so the. 101 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 3: Casual nature of the way that he played in that game, 102 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 3: he was missing easy throws, he wasn't on time. 103 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: It did not look good at all. 104 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 3: And so for this Ravens team, I know a lot 105 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 3: of people are gonna try to bury him. 106 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 6: Now. 107 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: Obviously they're six and six and they don't look like 108 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 2: the team we thought. It's not over. But if they're 109 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: gonna win. 110 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 3: When we talked about them having all the success they have, 111 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 3: we give Lamar allow the credit. When they lose this way, 112 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 3: you gotta give him some blame too. And so I'm 113 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: just gonna be on record and say this is one 114 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 3: of the worst performances I've seen of him. 115 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 2: That's fair. 116 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: But I got somebody else on you to heat some 117 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: blame on you got John Harbaugh, because you know why, 118 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: it ain't just about the offense. They couldn't get off 119 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: the field. Defensively, they've struggled. We saw them blow game 120 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: one of the season they had they scored forty points. 121 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: Lamar put on a clintic of course, Okay, yeah, fump turnovers, fumbles, 122 00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: defense couldn't stop the bill. I mean, like, let's be 123 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: it has been an awful year for all facets of 124 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: the Ravens. At some point, can you stop saying, Okay, 125 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: John Harball won a Super Bowl back ten years, eight 126 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: years ago, whenever it was like it was a long 127 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: time ago to me every year since they had Lamar 128 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: and disappointingly when you look at them and go, dude, 129 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: they got everything you should you need and they haven't 130 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: been able to get to that next step. How long 131 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: do you keep doing the same thing with John Harball 132 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: and not trying to make a fix or change. And 133 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you one. And the difference is he 134 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: did win, So I understand that for the first few years. Okay, 135 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: you still believe, well, he won, he got us there, 136 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: let's give him a shot. But you remember in Tampa 137 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: Bay with Tony Dungee couldn't win, like they had an 138 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: unbelievable defense, had everything. Tony Dungee every year couldn't win. 139 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: Finally said okay, they let him go, bought and John 140 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: Gruden and he won the Super Bowl, like like I've 141 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: seen this happen and one guy might be able to 142 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: get you to a certain point. But he had since 143 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: he's had Lamar, they haven't done sloppy play, just mistakes 144 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: in that AFC game championship game wasn't a championship game 145 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: against the against Kansas City in Baltimore was eight flowers 146 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: like fumbled at the like they always make the mistakes 147 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: uh last year against uh the Buffalo Mark and like 148 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: like in their stars, these aren't random players like right 149 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: to them, Like seriously, everybody, owe the throat. No no, no, 150 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: catch that ball. That ball thrown to you, Okay, you're open, 151 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: catch the ball. Like this keeps happening. And you could say, well, 152 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: you you can't blame the coach because the players aren't 153 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: making plays. But let me tell you this, yes you can, 154 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: because when the players make plays, we give the coach credit. 155 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: Oh he got them broughting up, he got them ready 156 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: to play. Right, So we give the coach credit when 157 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: stuff goes good, he gets a new contract, he gets 158 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: a raise, all of this, but when his players aren't focused, 159 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: aren't doing you gotta also give him blame as well. 160 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: One goes with the other. It's not either or unless 161 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: they win the Super Bowl. I would fire John Harball 162 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: at the end of the season. I would I need 163 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: somebody new. I don't want to waste another year with Lamar. Okay, Like, 164 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: don't kid yourself. The Packers didn't do what they needed 165 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: to do during Aaron Rodgers. After they won to twenty ten, 166 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 1: they never got back.

Most people before the 293 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 5: season began would not have seen them playing five hundred ball, 294 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 5: but maybe being in the winning column. 295 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 2: No, no doubt about it. 296 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: Nobody had them might have been the only person in 297 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: America said that the Chiefs wouldn't make the playoffs? 298 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: Am I right? 299 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 5: My favorite joke about it is that I think now 300 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 5: Taylor Swift may be looking to data tight end. 301 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 2: In the Patriots on the bearn Henry's in New England. 302 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 2: That's very good.

It is sad because I saw a 535 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 7: whole dunk and I couldn't buy it. 536 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 2: Come on, you know what, Calvin, always remember this. 537 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: Ducks don't go to college, they don't get married, and 538 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: they don't buy houses. 539 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 2: What else are they here for? You know, they're here 540 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 2: for us? All right? 541 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 1: Anyway, let's go here. And what about them Cowboys? My goodness, gracious, 542 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: what a win against the Chiefs. I mean, that's a 543 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: that's a huge win and a blow to the Chiefs, 544 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: but also a big boost to the Dallas Cowboys. And 545 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: they're playing, well, that's back to back. They're down twenty 546 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: one nothing to Philadelphia. They win that game and then 547 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: they followed that up with a game against the Chiefs. 548 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: Right now, their confidence has to be sky high. 549 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 7: It really is. They've won their last three games. Going 550 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 7: into this stretch, they were like three five and one. 551 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 7: They had not won consecutive games all year. They had 552 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 7: not been the team for a plus five hundred record, 553 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 7: and they've done that. Now they beat the Eagles and 554 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 7: they beat the Chiefs. Two teams have in the Super 555 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 7: Bowl last year. This is the first time they've won 556 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 7: three in a row since the twenty twenty three season. 557 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 7: And they're in pretty good shape now. They still got 558 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 7: a lot of work to do. If they went out, 559 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 7: they have a chance to win the division. That would 560 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 7: give them eleven wins. They can afford one more loss maybe, 561 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 7: but they still got work to do to get to 562 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,360 Speaker 7: the wildcard. But they're in good shape. 563 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: How about I'm going to be in Detroit. You'll be 564 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: there right when they played? Yeah, So I'll see you 565 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 1: in Detroit going to that game. Yeah, I'm going to 566 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: that game. 567 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 2: Say that. 568 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna go there. I want to go to 569 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: the funeral. I mean I want to here we go, there, 570 00:27:58,119 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 1: we go. 571 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 7: Well, you're gonna wear black, you know? Yeah? 572 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 2: There you go. Well, I just want you to know Calvin. 573 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: Before the season started, I did say Lion's no playoffs. 574 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 2: And Chiefs no playoffs. That's not bad. 575 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: Okay, before the season. Before the season anyway, just talk 576 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: about the matchup. The Lions are hurting a little bit. 577 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: They lost. They got a gift from the Giants. They 578 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: should have lost that game too, and they they gotta 579 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: do some winning. This is a huge game in Detroit. 580 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 5: It is. 581 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 7: He didn't say how Dan Campbell was like winter Hole 582 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 7: and I think there's seven and five and he understands 583 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 7: the significance of that loss. That was a tough loss 584 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 7: to have. And now here come the resurgence of the 585 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 7: Cowboys that they have to handle. And the same Brown, 586 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 7: he's got an ankle injury. 587 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 2: He's going to be out for a couple of weeks, out. 588 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 7: A couple of weeks. You know. Ever since he did 589 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 7: that dance, everything's been downhill. 590 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 2: That's right, no doubt about it. We need to make 591 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: sure we put that out. 592 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 7: There out there. But I think the biggest issue with 593 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 7: the Lions is that they lost two of their coordinators. 594 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 7: One is with the Jets, one with the Bears. And 595 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 7: as much as we talk about you losing players, losing coaches, 596 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 7: especially the coordinators. To me, also a detriment to your club. 597 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 7: And I think Dan Campbell still calling the plays. This 598 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 7: is this is still a good game. This is still 599 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 7: a good football team. So let's not make it seem like. 600 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: They're Yeah, but they're now fifteen and two like they 601 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 2: were you that's. 602 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 7: Why not Yeah, they're not. No, but this is like 603 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 7: a playoff game. It has to be. Calvi is fighting 604 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 7: for their lives here and the Lions are too in 605 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 7: a lot of ways. 606 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 3: Calvin, I got I got two things for you. I 607 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 3: want to first talk about the I guess the impact 608 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 3: that Brian Schottenheimer's had there. Obviously, when people heard about 609 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 3: the higher there's a lot of pushbacks saying he was 610 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 3: the wrong guy and so well, a lot of people said, 611 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,959 Speaker 3: I think you were on that train. No, no, But 612 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 3: I want to talk about him and the culture change 613 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 3: within an organization. It looks like the guys are really 614 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 3: buying into what he has to say, and he's been 615 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: masterful calling games as the coordinator as well. Talk about 616 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 3: that part of it. But also I want to talk 617 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 3: about the defensive turned around too. Obviously, this defense was 618 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 3: Abismo to start the season. Right now, seems like they've 619 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 3: gotten the flow and they you know, they've figured out 620 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 3: who they want to be defensively as well. 621 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 7: Bryan Schanhammer has always been a good people person and 622 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 7: he relates well to the players. As you guys know, 623 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 7: his dad was a head coach. He was a players coach, 624 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 7: old school and shot. He's kind of old school for 625 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 7: a lot of new school principles, so he resonates with 626 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 7: the players. He's always been a good play caller. When 627 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 7: he's with the Jets of Seattle, he always knows what 628 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 7: he's doing there. And then he's got two Dynamics deceivers 629 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 7: and George Pickers and city Land to help defensively. The 630 00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 7: trade getting Clinton Williams and Logan Wilson was this. This 631 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 7: was a major boost to the Cowboys and also getting 632 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 7: some guys who were injured back on the field line 633 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 7: back of Tomorrow and Obashan coming back. Getting savonn Revel 634 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 7: who's a rookie in a big corner and you know 635 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 7: you need big corners these days. And they got him 636 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 7: in the third round out of East Carolina, and they 637 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 7: love how he plays, and he finally came back. So 638 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 7: getting some guys back on the field helps the scheme. 639 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 7: They made a little tweak to the scheme. They get 640 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 7: over a five man front. 641 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: Yes, so you got. 642 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:35,479 Speaker 7: Kenny Clark, Quinton Williams and Olsa the Yazoo just rushing 643 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 7: the passer. Normally we say you rush the pastor from 644 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 7: the edges. Right. The Cowboys said, well, we don't have 645 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 7: a good great edge rushers. We got him up front 646 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 7: in the interior and and and they are just it's 647 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 7: been a fantastic turnaround defensively for this team. 648 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 2: Yep. 649 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: And the only issue I have is with the last 650 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: name Shottenheim. Are any big playoff games? 651 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 3: I want you to oh Man trying to make a 652 00:31:58,800 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 3: legacy thing. 653 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 2: What are you doing? He could he could, no. 654 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 7: He could not. He talked about that was his dad. 655 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 7: The Cowboys are going to Denver, uh, and you know 656 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 7: they got they got tore up off the frame in Denver. 657 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 7: And he said, I had some bad memories in Denver. 658 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 7: He meant that with his dad, you know. Yeah so. 659 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 7: But but one of the interesting things about him is 660 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 7: that we were talking to him today and he says, 661 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 7: I can't worry about the past, right, And Kerry knows 662 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 7: this to be played. Just what happened. 663 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 2: He played for the Jets, That's all you need to know. 664 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 2: So he a little too hard. 665 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 3: Calvin Hey, that was from New York too. 666 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 2: He we winning years, guys were all right. 667 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, he didn't play for Rex. Yeah, and so so Shan. 668 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 7: He understands the dynamic of you know what, it's a 669 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 7: one week at a time business. 670 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 5: Right. 671 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 7: But some of these losses that they had early in 672 00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 7: the years, like Carolina and Chicago and even Arizona, and 673 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 7: that was a bad loss. That was a whole in Arizona. 674 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 7: And they don't even have Colin Murray, right, they might 675 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 7: bite them down the stretch. If they would have wanted 676 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 7: these he would have been the Arizona. They're on a 677 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 7: four game one street and they're much better. They in 678 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 7: a much better position right right now. The need a 679 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 7: little bit of help and they gotta win out almost. 680 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 2: All right, last thing, we got less than a minute. 681 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: Uh, Dak Prescott has a chance at the MVP, because 682 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: I expect Matthew Stafford to start hearing that point. At 683 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: some point there'll be one or two bad stakers and 684 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: the Cowboys might run the table. I'm just telling you 685 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: that people are going to look because Dak has played 686 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 1: really well this year. 687 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 7: Yes he has, Yes he has. Only in the year. 688 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 7: I thought he was an MVP candidate. Then he got 689 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 7: slumped off a little bit. I think he might it 690 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,719 Speaker 7: might be more realistic for him to get the Comeback 691 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 7: Player of the Year award and clashes. You know, he 692 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 7: tore his hamshare. He must like the last seven eight games. 693 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 7: But I think he did come Back Player of the Year. 694 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 2: All right, there you go. He would not be winning 695 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 2: the MVP. I'm all right. 696 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 7: Calvin, pray for carry. 697 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: Calvin Wackets of course find Dallas Cowboys beat writer for 698 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:09,359 Speaker 1: the Dallas Morning News. 699 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,279 Speaker 2: Thank you, my friend.

According to a longtime colleague, he was seventy four. 734 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 1: But my point is that was included in the lead 735 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: of his obituary. Yeah, inbounds, out of bounds where you 736 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: want to man. 737 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 3: That thing is very sensitive because obviously we all make 738 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,320 Speaker 3: mistakes and we do things, we say things that we regret. 739 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 2: As a human. That shouldn't be the lead of his obituary. 740 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if that's it's not the it's not 741 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 3: the lead, But you mean so it shouldn't be included 742 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 3: in the lead at all. No, Okay, I don't think 743 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 3: that's I don't think that's in I don't think you 744 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 3: can just say with one moment that that's indicative of 745 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 3: who he is, and so to say that his the 746 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 3: whole arc of his life in his career as a professional, 747 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 3: that being being included in it. 748 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 2: It can be a footnote, I think, but it's bigger. 749 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 2: I'm going to say it's bigger than a footnote. 750 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 1: You think it's bigger than This was against Tiger Woods 751 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 1: at a time where he wanted to make Fried chicken 752 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,439 Speaker 1: and watermelon jokes and whatnot, which was really at that time, 753 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: you got to remember where we were in this country, 754 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: what was going on. Okay, here's this young black golfer 755 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: who is just you know, taking the world by storm, 756 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: and he lost his endorsements. 757 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 2: I mean, he. 758 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 3: Suffered, that's on point.

It says two 784 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 1: times a winner, right, So it's not like that was 785 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: eliminated and the only thing they talked about was Tiger Wood, but. 786 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 2: It has to be included. 787 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,359 Speaker 1: It was such a big deal, such a big uh 788 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: point in his career, and I think what hurt him 789 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: is that he never won again after that, to maybe 790 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 1: have a redemption story and where he's able to be 791 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 1: like who overcame something that could attain it his career. 792 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 3: Do you understand?

I'm just saying not everything, 800 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: like if you had a hiccup or something, sure, but 801 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 1: in that case with Tiger Woods, want goes on to 802 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 1: be one of the greatest callers of all time at 803 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: that at that time, it was such a slap and 804 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,839 Speaker 1: it was just him being racist, like really with the 805 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: fried chicken, Like, look like that was so what like, 806 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: really is that what you're coming with?
