Todd Archer breaks it down at six years, 27 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 4: one hundred and four million dollars for. 28 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:35,479 Speaker 1: Trey Bond Diggs. 29 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 4: Bonus twenty one point three I sheuly said, twenty one 30 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 4: point two five million with guarantees. Get up forty two 31 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 4: point three million dollars for a corner that folks have 32 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 4: been looking for since Dion Sanders left here. 33 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: I know there's a bunch of people that wanted Byron 34 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: Jones to get paid. 35 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 4: I was one of those that said, you know, I 36 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 4: like Byron Jones, but you don't take the ball away. 37 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: You pay. 38 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 4: You pay for people to snatch. Snatch that all the way. 39 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 4: That's at a quarterback league. So dig just paid. Let 40 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 4: me start with you your thoughts. 41 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: You know, I think it's well deserved. It's well deserved. 42 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 6: I think they had to get this done because he's 43 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 6: one of the cornerstone pieces of that defense that seems 44 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 6: to just be rising as the years go on and 45 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 6: if we look at his game, you know, his rookie 46 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 6: year gave up a lot of yards. But to me, 47 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 6: what stood out the most is he's coachable because then 48 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 6: that following year he came back eleven interceptions. Out there, 49 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 6: he's taking the football away, just like you said, like 50 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 6: the top corners should be able to do. If you 51 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 6: can take the football away and create offense on your own, 52 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 6: I mean you're gonna be one of the highest paid corners, as. 53 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: We see with Trayvon Days. 54 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 6: And he follows that back up again after the eleven 55 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 6: interception year, he became to me the complete corner because 56 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 6: he was locked down. I mean he went to get 57 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 6: some of the top receivers in the game hit him 58 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 6: to one two catches. 59 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: I think A J. 60 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 6: Brownly had one catch down, So I think it's well deserved. 61 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 6: He's becoming that complete corner. 62 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: And with the addition of Stefan gillwhere this could be 63 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: a dangerous duo. 64 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 5: I mean, look at look at Treylon from this aspect, 65 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 5: he was a second round guy, so he didn't have 66 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 5: the fifth round option. That was the thing that really 67 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 5: made his deal. I have to do situation for the Cowboys. Now, 68 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 5: when you look at where he is. As far as 69 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 5: the contract that they signed, they did not reset the market. 70 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 5: So that's them to this whole deal is that he 71 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 5: didn't want to get paid more than some of those 72 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 5: top guys in the league. And I think with all 73 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 5: of the things that you have coming down the pipeline, 74 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 5: if you're Stephen Jones, he does not want to be 75 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 5: known as that guy that kicks the can down the 76 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 5: road and always gets guys signed late, like he did 77 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 5: with Dak and some other contracts that we've seen, right, 78 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 5: But you had to get Trayvon dis done and that 79 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 5: deal is done now, and I think it's a it's 80 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 5: a team friendly deal that also allows you now to 81 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 5: get some other pressing needs done. 82 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: Somebody's getting the cap, somebody's. 83 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 5: Getting to tag you know they I don't want to 84 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 5: hear that, but I think the deal that they made 85 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 5: happen when Trayvon they had to and he was in 86 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 5: the advance, he had the advantage and he got paid 87 00:03:59,240 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 5: all right. 88 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 4: Todd Archer breaks it down here for by the way, 89 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 4: Todd Archer of ESPN dot Com breaks down the money. 90 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 4: Uh So this year twenty twenty three, one million dollars 91 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 4: twenty twenty four eleven million dollars hit, twenty twenty five 92 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 4: nine million, twenty twenty six fourteen point five million dollars, 93 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 4: twenty twenty seven nineteen point five million dollars, and twenty 94 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 4: twenty eight twenty million dollars. 95 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: So he's got an active roster bonuses. 96 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 4: Totally one million dollars from year twenty four through twenty 97 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 4: twenty eight, and he can make an additional six hundred 98 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 4: thousand dollars per year through escalators. Escalators each year, five 99 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 4: interceptions plus the playoffs is three hundred thousand dollars. Seven 100 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 4: interceptions plus the playoffs six hundred thousand doables. So these 101 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 4: are these are doable things there. And one more thing 102 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 4: we talked about with Diggs while he had that rough 103 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 4: first year. That was with Mike Nolan. Nobody on dealbo. 104 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: You're bringing dan Quinn and and and and there you know, 105 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 4: there you go. So the interesting thing about that go 106 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 4: back to cd Am getting drafted. The Falcons had to 107 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 4: pick before Dallas when dan Quinn was there. They took 108 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 4: corner A J. Terrell and you and I were talking. 109 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 4: We we both said we wanted a corner in the 110 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 4: first round, and we said Diggs Yep, doesn't happen. They 111 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 4: get him in the second round. So here dan Quinn 112 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 4: getting the coaching. And I asked dan Quinn two years ago, 113 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 4: I was like, why did you take him? 114 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: Kind of danced around. 115 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're both gonna be good players. But and I asked, 116 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 4: did you ask him? Terrell really over me? But the 117 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,119 Speaker 4: man's got the bag. So all's well ended well for Diggs. 118 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 4: So I'm with you. This was a this is a 119 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 4: must have going into into you know, because of the 120 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 4: second round, four year contract versus five. You didn't want 121 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 4: to throw a tag. 122 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: On the player. 123 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 4: You didn't, you couldn't, and he didn't want to play 124 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 4: this year anyway, you want to risk it out there. 125 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 4: So I thought that I thought this was a good contract. 126 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 4: I thought when when you know top averaged, you know 127 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 4: top five, and you're not set in the market here, 128 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 4: I thought there was a win for them. Let's get 129 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 4: into Zach Martin. Okay, Cowboys future Hall of Fame guard. 130 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: We can say that with confidence. You look at him 131 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: as an. 132 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: All decade player, the numerous Pro Bowls. When you go 133 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 4: down the list of people at their jobs and what 134 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 4: they do, Zach Martin, if you want to tell me 135 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 4: somebody's better go ahead. 136 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: But he's not a can't see it. He's not a 137 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: camp and he's not happy. 138 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 4: One of the things that I've said to people, Jerry 139 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 4: took care of him in his last contract, made him 140 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 4: the highest paid guard the game. So he was good 141 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 4: fourteen mil. Okay, but the TV contractor has been resigned. 142 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 4: The markets are going up, and so top guard Quentin 143 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 4: Nelson over the Colts former Notre Dame player like Zach Martin. 144 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: Twenty million. 145 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 6: Pizza gap, right right, that's that's a gap, that's a 146 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 6: healthy gap. 147 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: So he's not a camp. The Cowboys, I thought, did 148 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: the smart thing. We're not addressing it. 149 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 4: Never'll talk about go talk about it, because what can 150 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 4: you say. 151 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: There's really nothing. You don't want anything. 152 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 4: Here's a player that you love. Okay, clearly everybody loves it. Yes, 153 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 4: you look at it. Now he's under paid, but this 154 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 4: is what happened. What's what's what's Mahomes now underpaid by 155 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 4: see Justin Herbert get paid Caliber, get paid. 156 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: You Patrick Mahomes. I'm better than him. 157 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 4: So this is this is what the markets do. So heck, 158 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 4: how do you how do you fix this? 159 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 5: You know, I know it's it's It shocked me when 160 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 5: I got the news, first of all, because I think 161 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 5: we already had Trayvon Days, we had CD Lamb, We're 162 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 5: even talking about Micah. 163 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: You know what we're gonna do with him. 164 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 5: The last person that I was thinking that would be 165 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 5: saying it's my time, my turn is Zach Martin. 166 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: And you know, it's really strange. 167 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 5: Because the Cowboys organization has paid him early and often 168 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 5: it seems like they've never been had a misstep with him, 169 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 5: and Zach Martin, to me, is a made man around here, 170 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 5: and people won't talk about them dead players that you 171 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 5: just say, hey, these are made men. Jason Witten one 172 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 5: of those guys are made man. Zach Martin the best 173 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 5: at what he does, made man and the market even 174 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 5: though it's gotten away from the Cowboys, from Quentin Nelson 175 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 5: to his contract when he signed, like you said, I 176 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 5: knew he was the highest paid guard in the league. 177 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 5: But right now this is I don't want to call 178 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 5: it strong arming, but he's working his leverage to a 179 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 5: way that I don't think that the Dallas Cowboys anticipated 180 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 5: him doing it. 181 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: Could have could it. 182 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 5: Have been worked out a little bit more quieter because 183 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 5: who do we need more than anybody on that offensive line. 184 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: I mean, come on that, Mark. 185 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 5: I'm not in a position, No one is in a 186 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 5: position to act like we don't need this guy. This 187 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 5: guy ties tern steel and to be hodish and the 188 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 5: synergy and the way that this whole offensive line works. 189 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: So look, I'm working. 190 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 5: I'm hoping that this is one of those contracts that 191 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 5: they can get done quietly without it seemed like, hey, 192 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 5: he's strong armed, you let him right now, right now. 193 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 5: They in that situation because he is the guy. You 194 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 5: absolutely need him. You can't talk about his age, you 195 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 5: can't talk about his injuries. There's no knock on this 196 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 5: guy because he has been the best at his position 197 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 5: for a very long time. And when he comes knocking you, hey, 198 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 5: you gotta respect it. Even though they don't want to 199 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 5: talk about it. You gotta respect because. 200 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 4: There's there's and this is my opinion, you don't talk 201 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 4: about it because there's nothing you can say. It's gonna 202 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 4: come out good. I mean, yes, he deserves to get paid. Now, Okay, 203 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 4: see you said it. Now you know well, yo, you 204 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 4: kind of contract, you better sign it. 205 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: You better on. There's nothing to say other than to 206 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 1: me the best thing to. 207 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 6: Say, talk about it, and that's true. But at the 208 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 6: end of the day, they gotta pay this man. I mean, 209 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 6: they got to pay this man. He is the best 210 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 6: offensive lineman, not only on a Dallas Cowboys team, but 211 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 6: maybe in the entire NFL. We know he's the best guard, 212 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 6: but his position flex out there. We've seen this offensive 213 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 6: line do musical chairs throughout the years. 214 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: They tackle play tackle. Guy can get play. He probably 215 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: plays center if he wants to. 216 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 6: So, like you said, Knui, I mean he ties everybody 217 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 6: together on that offensive line, an aging offensive line with 218 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 6: some young pieces. They need that guy in there, and 219 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 6: they got to pay him a sap because. 220 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 1: We don't want this thing to stretch out. 221 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 4: You know what if it goes in the week one 222 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 4: and you know we got gotta put ball over there. 223 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:18,599 Speaker 1: At the guard. These are all possibilities, you know what 224 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: I'm saying. You know, we really can't have that back 225 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: there running for his life. So you gotta pay this man, 226 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: and you gotta be as so as a player, how 227 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: do you inform the team? Oh that that's that's for 228 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 1: me personally. I'm agent. You gotta handle that because. 229 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 4: You know he's one of the he's the leader of 230 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 4: somebody to make the we got to make the coole 231 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 4: in there. And do you call the coach. I mean 232 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 4: this McCarthy cay called him up, like, hey, you know, 233 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 4: that's what's going on here. 234 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 6: And I'm sure you know macarthy's talked to you know, 235 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 6: Dak and other leaders of this. 236 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: Team, you know, reach out to Zach. 237 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 6: You don't see what we can get him in here, 238 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 6: just to you know, he doesn't have to practice, but 239 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 6: he can just be around the team. And I'm sure 240 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 6: they reached out to him. But hey, the man, the 241 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 6: man's playing the leverage. 242 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 5: Like you said, he's in a smart movie. It's a 243 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 5: smart move, and I completely understand it. 244 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: From a players standpoint. 245 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 5: They have to be more aggressive about the way that 246 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 5: they get their deals done and the CBA all of 247 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 5: these things that we've seen be narrated through the media 248 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 5: on how guys are. 249 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: Not getting paid. 250 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 5: Zach Martin is not gonna be six million dollars paid 251 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 5: less than a guy that's not even in his caliber. 252 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 5: He's the best interior lineman in the league. You have 253 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 5: to pay him like that. And so that's I mean, 254 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 5: that's just just okay. 255 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 4: So, so here's one thing that I have I had 256 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 4: discussions with people about. 257 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: You know, I'm you know, me and your boy till. 258 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 4: I'm gonna get this story. I'm gonna get this. I'm 259 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 4: gonna get the story. Go back to go back to 260 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 4: his time in Philadelphia. 261 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: After year one, like that's not it got track, not good. 262 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 4: I've out performed the contract, lit up, lit up And 263 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 4: normally when players ask for my money, they get lit up. 264 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 4: Zack Martin is not being lit up. People are understanding. 265 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 4: And it goes back to the line I always say 266 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 4: when I was doing sports radio, it's interesting on who 267 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 4: we choose to condemn and who we choose to forgive 268 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 4: who we provide forgiveness to. This is true because at 269 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 4: the end of the. 270 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 1: Day, it is sign a contract. The team did make 271 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: him the number one guy. 272 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 4: Heckma one thing we know, whatever you signed today is 273 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,959 Speaker 4: going to change because of the way the cap keeps 274 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 4: growing everything else. So you're you know, it's almost like 275 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 4: trying to time it. Well, you can't really time it right. 276 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 4: So but as the team go, how are you supposed 277 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 4: to address this? 278 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 1: And then. 279 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 4: Across the league, if you're Patrick Mahomes, you should be 280 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 4: in there too. I mean, there's certain players in this 281 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 4: leaving that Hey, you the best at what you do 282 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 4: and your spot at Mark's the best of this spot, 283 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 4: Patrick Mahoons's best spot. No, you counsel, you go, hey, 284 00:12:58,160 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 4: we just wanted the super Bowl here you got ridtired. 285 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,959 Speaker 4: I mean you literally can have a line. There's certain 286 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 4: you could have six seven guys in his league lining 287 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 4: up saying you know, yo, wet my beak. 288 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, those guys, I mean they're making a sacrifice. Don't 289 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 5: get me Mahomes. 290 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: And his type. 291 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 5: They're making a sacrifice by not going back to the 292 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 5: well and saying, hey, pay me what these other guys 293 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 5: are getting paid. 294 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: That tight end is just. 295 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 5: As important as any player in the league and what 296 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 5: he does production wise, I'm saying when it comes to 297 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 5: Zach Martin, and I think it's really the dynamic between 298 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 5: the guys that get literally drug through the mud in 299 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 5: the media and the guys that don't. To me, Zach 300 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 5: Martin is the most consistent interior lineman to play in 301 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 5: the NFL in a very long time. 302 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: It's a generational talent holding calls. But I mean these 303 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: are premia numbers are off the charts. 304 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 5: When you there's no narrative that you could write about 305 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 5: this guy other than he's really good. And if you 306 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 5: look at the greatest players of all time, and I'm 307 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 5: not calling them Michael Jordan or anything like that, but 308 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 5: drastically underpaid. But in this market, he has to get 309 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 5: everything that he can. At thirty two years old, he's 310 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,719 Speaker 5: not going to allow for twelve million dollars to go 311 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 5: through his hands, in his family's hands without getting paid that. 312 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 5: I mean, Look, if you ever taken the finance class, 313 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 5: money in the hand is better than money tomorrow. 314 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 1: You had to get to me right now. 315 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 4: I've taken taken more than a few of the financially 316 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 4: called president value versus fellow he need fv Okay. 317 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: So I totally understand it. 318 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 4: But once again, it's the perception in how players freed 319 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 4: it and how we go by it. I remember when 320 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 4: people were having a connection about Dak Prescott, make it 321 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 4: forty million, ah, forty million, I weren't doing that worth 322 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 4: it now?

I always thought Mike McCarthy just okay, they 603 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 4: like him, So I said, yeah, I'd hire him, even 604 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 4: though I don't know him. 605 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: You're buying it. I'm nervous. 606 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 6: I'm not sure about y'all, but I'm a little nervous 607 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,679 Speaker 6: about this about McCarthy going in here calling these plays 608 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 6: for the office. I mean, he has a super Bowl 609 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 6: winning coordinator, or he was the head coach and he 610 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 6: called the play, so I'll give him the coordinator title 611 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 6: as well. 612 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: He was a super Bowl winner, but that was what 613 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: thirteen years ago? 614 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 6: Thirteen years ago, and he had a guy by the 615 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 6: name of Aaron Rodgers at the quarterback position as well. 616 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: Now, Dak Prescott, I'm not saying he's that far beneath 617 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, but I'm. 618 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 6: Not saying he's in the same category as an Aaron 619 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 6: Rodgers as well. And for a guy that hasn't called 620 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 6: plays in five plus years, he's coming in here saying 621 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 6: we're gonna run the football. We're getting back to the trenches, 622 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,719 Speaker 6: We're getting to this ground game. We're gonna get back 623 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 6: to that. 624 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: But what has he done to prove that the action 625 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: speak louder than. 626 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 4: The world he so, heck, can we go back into 627 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 4: this whole we're gonna run the football thing? I never 628 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 4: took Mike McCarthy to say it he's about to become 629 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 4: Marty shotten him and Marty ball it will ground and pounded. 630 00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 4: I took it as him with Kellen Moore saying, but 631 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 4: we need to run the football more in certain situations. 632 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 4: I go back to the Jacksonville game and the Green 633 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 4: Bay game when I was at you have fourteen point leads. 634 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 4: You look it up there he got forty eight second 635 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 4: drive because you went three and out and you're throwing 636 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 4: the whole time. I took it and saying we need 637 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 4: to run the ball more in situations to save our defense. 638 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: That's how I took it. What about you? 639 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 5: Heck, I just I want to go back to your 640 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 5: original question because I no longer dissect whether Mike MacArthur 641 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 5: won it, Kellamore or not, because that's too deep. 642 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: They can try and figure out the truth. Throng, right. 643 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 5: But I think that when you look at this offense 644 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 5: and you look at the production has the numbers that 645 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 5: it had last season, you say, what was wrong? They 646 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 5: are number one point scored. That's the whole point of that. 647 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 5: He has the whole shell of that. Nothing has changed 648 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 5: with the talent that production other than now you don't 649 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 5: have Ezekiel Elliott now you think that you're going to 650 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 5: have a more explosive offense with Tony Pollard and company. 651 00:29:59,120 --> 00:29:59,239 Speaker 9: Right. 652 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: I don't worry. 653 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 5: About Mike McCarthy simply because you said he is of 654 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 5: super Bowl caliber. I think he's had enough opportunity to 655 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 5: figure out exactly who and what his offense should be. Look, 656 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,479 Speaker 5: the only thing I worry about is mistakes as far 657 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 5: as clock management things like that, because he's going to 658 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 5: be so concerned with other things. But as I've known 659 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy, I've known him as the guy with the 660 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 5: laminated play sheet and the guy that was making those 661 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 5: making those calls out to his offense, I don't see. 662 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 5: And the whole assumption that he's going to run the ball, 663 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 5: I ain't. Come on, Man's that's fodder. That's not going 664 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 5: to happen. The NFL has changed so much that I 665 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 5: don't think that Mike McCarthy is unaware of that. But 666 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 5: what I do think that he has to do is 667 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 5: to mitigate the mistakes from Dak Prescott, to mitigate the 668 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 5: guesswork by those wide receivers. And we saw it too 669 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 5: many times. We broke down too much film that saw 670 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 5: these wide receivers didn't know where they needed to be 671 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 5: and it came to the point where some thing had 672 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 5: to be done. They were not just going to stay 673 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 5: the course with Kellen Moore. Still with my dog Camemore, but. 674 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: Stay the course. I keep doing that. 675 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 6: You can't be the number one offense over his time 676 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 6: period as an offensive coordinator. 677 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: And somehow feel like we're gonna get better. Where are 678 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: you getting better at? I guess time management, but we've 679 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: seen a game management. 680 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 6: But we've seen from coach McCarthy that can be that 681 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 6: can be a little bit you know, of a guesswork 682 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 6: when it comes to him as far as game management. 683 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 6: So you're saying that he can become better as far 684 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 6: as saving the defense and making sure we run the 685 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 6: ball when needed. 686 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: So situational awareness is that what. 687 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 6: We're saying he could be better at calling the players 688 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 6: balance while than Kellen Moore. 689 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: I go back to Kyle Shanahan. 690 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 4: That Super Bowl Atlanta, they're up, oh man, Kyle Shanahan 691 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 4: was out there still trying to be aggressive. 692 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: And not running the football. He's up ten points on 693 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. 694 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 4: He stops running football, So you know you got Garmpolo 695 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 4: missing passes in now Kansas City got the ball back 696 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 4: through Boom. It's about the situations and while you get 697 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 4: yourself up the way Shannahan did, go back to Green Bay, 698 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 4: you're at fourteen, and go back to Jacksonville fourteen, it 699 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 4: comes the point in time you got to figure, Okay, 700 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 4: where am I and what do we need to be 701 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 4: doing to make sure we're taking ourselves where. 702 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: You have to think about the defense now. 703 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 4: And I say this because I remember many times talking 704 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 4: to Gary Patterson and TCU and he was coaching over 705 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 4: the defensive guy and he had these air ray brought in, 706 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 4: these air ray guys, and he would literally say, I 707 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 4: have to talk to these guys. 708 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: I need you to run it talking to them things. 709 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 4: I'm telling you what to call, but I want you 710 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 4: to run it because we got a defense here that 711 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 4: needs to stay off the field for a little bit. 712 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 4: And I think, to me, that was what I felt 713 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy was saying. And when he's had the press 714 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 4: conference at the at the owners meeting, when people blew 715 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 4: that one up, Oh he's to be slamming Kellen Moore, 716 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 4: he was a slamming Keller. One of the guy said, 717 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 4: like fifty million nice things about him, But then he 718 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 4: brought the point, Hey, look, I've been in kellen shoes 719 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 4: where I'm an offensive coordinator. I'm trying to score. I'm 720 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 4: trying to run it. I'm trying to you know, I'm 721 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 4: trying to be that guy. He said, Well, I'm the 722 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 4: head coach, head coach, you're trying to win championships, and 723 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 4: you see it differently. It's all about viewpoints. And it's 724 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 4: not that he's saying Kellen's wrong. Hey, I was once 725 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 4: a young play caller. You give me the keys now 726 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 4: were about to about to show you. And he's saying, hey, 727 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 4: as a as a head coach, you're looking for the 728 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 4: whole thing. 729 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: You got to look at the bigger viewpoint here everything. 730 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 4: So Jacksonville, you need to run the ball more, especially 731 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 4: after we saw they got on your man, Kelvin Joseph. 732 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 5: You know on. 733 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: TV it was going, it was. 734 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 4: Going so all right, they got a little momentum and 735 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 4: you play there, Jacksonville. 736 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: They got going here, that football chance coming. 737 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 4: They got going green Bay because that Green Bay game, 738 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 4: they thought they were going to lose all of a sudden, 739 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter, it's down to seven. 740 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: That crowd is jumping and going you needed to help them. 741 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 5: I just go back to the fact that there was 742 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 5: just certain points in the season where the offense just 743 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 5: looked and theft and it didn't matter whether you call 744 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,919 Speaker 5: it the rhythm with Dak because he hurt his hand 745 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 5: or you know those things. I just felt like, going 746 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 5: back to the Green Bay game, there was a bad 747 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 5: interception in the end zone where either CD LAMB should 748 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 5: have ran him more flat, he broke it off and 749 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 5: went over the top of the of the safety and 750 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 5: consequently there was a turn up. We had many things 751 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 5: like that happened within the season where guys just looked 752 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 5: like they were out of place. How many times can 753 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 5: that happen? And you know, Mike McCarthy's walking into that 754 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 5: meeting room and saying, look, these are the things that 755 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 5: just cannot happen. San Francisco, San Francisco. I mean, this 756 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 5: man has a head Demico Ryans has a head coaching 757 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 5: job because of the job that he did on a 758 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 5: lot of these quote unquote big offensive coordinators. 759 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: And he made Kellen Moore look bad. 760 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 4: So you say Kellen Moore, And in conversations I've had 761 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,760 Speaker 4: with people, they've questioned the wide receivers coach here, Okay, 762 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 4: So that's going to be an interesting kind of dynamic. 763 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 4: Is when I go to camp, you know, you talk 764 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 4: to more people, and you talk to you're able to 765 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 4: get to folks a little bit off camera. 766 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 1: That's something thing I'll be interested to see. 767 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 6: I mean, it's wild because you know, you say, you know, 768 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 6: Demico Rians may Kellen Moore look bad. 769 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: Wide receivers aren't running this way. 770 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 6: What does it come down to at the end of 771 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 6: the day, execution, execution and decision making. 772 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, was that ball forced into that that triple coverage? Yeah? 773 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 6: Was that ball forced the second reception of San Francisco 774 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 6: where two defenders could have picked it off but the 775 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 6: linebacker Fred Warner ended up picking up and take. So 776 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 6: my thing is, I just we can't all just put 777 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 6: this on Kellen Moore saying his offense was just all 778 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 6: high powering, say the defense. 779 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a combination of the two. 780 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 6: And maybe you guys are writing a new voice in 781 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 6: dark Prescott's ear could alleviate some of those, you know, 782 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 6: decision making opportunities that he gave the defense. 783 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 5: I agree with you, Barry, I mean, it's all it's 784 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,399 Speaker 5: all going to be on that. That's not even playing 785 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 5: games about it. It's gonna be on Dak. And Dak 786 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 5: has to be better. 787 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:01,879 Speaker 1: He can't play. 788 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 5: He can't have fifteen interceptions in twelve games. He cannot 789 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 5: afford to have a repeat of that. And he's already 790 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 5: said he's not gonna throw ten. 791 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: So okay, no, he's not saying he's going to have ten. 792 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 4: The quote was, we would not have ten tipped interceptions, 793 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 4: which is I'm working with the receivers. So we're working 794 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 4: on making sure your boss, you know that we get 795 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 4: the thing done because that's a lot of. 796 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 1: What we saw Jacksonville game, right, So that's what he said. 797 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 4: He said, I'm not gonna have ten interceptions, not gonna 798 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 4: have tent to the tipped interceptions. 799 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have the tipped interceptions. So that's what they're 800 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: working on it. 801 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 5: But this receiving court, this receiving court has to be 802 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 5: better for dakus. I mean, they can't go, you know, 803 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 5: to the eighth week of the season before they have 804 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 5: one hundred yard receiver. I mean, nor Brown was the 805 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 5: most productive guy they had. And again we can go 806 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 5: back to the Dak injury and all that, but Ceedee 807 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 5: Lamb is going to have to emerge as that playmaker 808 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 5: in this offense, and he's going to have to get 809 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 5: it going early. He can't wait till you know, the 810 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 5: week versus Green Bay to get his game. 811 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 4: Michael Gallup, Okay, Michael Gallup has got to go earn 812 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 4: his dollars. And that's that's just being straight up and 813 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 4: not like Michael Gallup, but that's just hey man, you 814 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 4: got paid. 815 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, time to produce. 816 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 4: Jaylen Tolbert, he was on one O five three the 817 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 4: fan talking today and then trying to flush you know, 818 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 4: last year. 819 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: But Jalen Tolbert, it's a third runner.

But there's still some guys that have 835 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 4: things to prove here and and this is this is 836 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 4: this is the beauty of what football is. You've got 837 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 4: another opportunity. Last year's gone here show what you can do. 838 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 4: But if these guys can play up to the ability 839 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 4: that the organization thought they had when they acquired them, 840 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 4: then you're talking about a really good a really good unit. 841 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 4: But I thought Clarence Hill, the four Star Telegram, had 842 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 4: a great point last year when the cowboy stepped on 843 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 4: the field, almost always they had the. 844 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 1: Worst receiving core than the other two. I have to 845 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,879 Speaker 1: that that cannot be the case this year. No, it can't. 846 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 5: And I really I think the one thing that baffles 847 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 5: me about Ceedee Lamman where he is, even with his 848 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 5: contract negotiation, when you consider or talk about PFF grades 849 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 5: or what they consider to be the top ten wide 850 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 5: receivers in the league, his name is never mentioned. 851 00:38:58,800 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: His name isn't put in that. 852 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 5: If he is, he's nine and he's ten, right, And 853 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 5: so for him, I think the perception around here is 854 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,240 Speaker 5: that he's an elite wide receiver. One hundred and fifty 855 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 5: seven targets last year one hundred and seven catches. 856 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 1: That's nothing. 857 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 5: That's productive. Thirteen hundred yard nine studies. I mean, look, 858 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 5: I'm just saying, Look, I don't want to get misconscrewed. 859 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 5: What I'm saying is I need Ceedee Lamb to be 860 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 5: that early. I don't need him to wait till the 861 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 5: end of the early. 862 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 1: Your point is fair. Your point is fair. 863 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 4: Can we also allow a little bit of grace on 864 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 4: this last year was his first time being the number 865 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 4: one guy. Little adjustment, you know, a little punch in 866 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 4: the mouth here, a little bit, and well he finally 867 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 4: figured it out. So what the ratings are, and it's 868 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 4: like it's like stocks's based off last year's returns. Now 869 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 4: that he knows what it takes, what you have to do, 870 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 4: I think Cee Lambill be fine. I'm not worried about 871 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 4: CD LAB, so I don't worry about their rankings. And 872 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 4: they want to put Terry McLaurin and guys like that, 873 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 4: that's fine. I'm not worried about that. Brandon cooks and 874 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 4: healthy Brandon cooks. On the other side, things get things 875 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 4: can be a lot easier for Ceedee Lamb because you're 876 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 4: a number one guy with no help over there. You know, 877 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 4: the maybe maybe somebody goes to show up over here. 878 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 4: CD and the Maybies, Okay, I think they're gonna be 879 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 4: okay to ship.
