1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: On this edition of The Booth Review. Well, that was

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: the weirdest game ever.

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 2: That's it. At the noows needs you to say it.

4
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,639
Speaker 1: We're going to review the whole thing, the start and

5
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: the wild finish on the Booth Review. Welcome to the

6
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,959
Speaker 1: Booth Review, brought to you by Microsoft Surface Powering a

7
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: Better Game. I'm Bram Weinstein with Big Fletch London Fletcher

8
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,600
Speaker 1: off of one of the toughest losses I could remember

9
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: in a while. It's the Cowboys. It was a marginalized Cowboys.

10
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: I think we thought it was a get right game

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 1: and then we had what was a sluggish, odd game

12
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,559
Speaker 1: that turned into pure chaos by the end of it.

13
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you when you look at the score and

14
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 3: you see what thirty six twenty eight the final score,

15
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 3: thirty four.

16
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: To twenty six, thirty four, brains are scrammed, right.

17
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 3: You see thirty four to twenty six at the final score,

18
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 3: you think, oh man, this was a shootout, had to

19
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 3: be an awesome game.

20
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 2: That was not the case.

21
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 3: It was a It was a sleeper in the in

22
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 3: the first half, three to three at half time. Really

23
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 3: disappointing loss given where we were and where we are

24
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 3: in our season where the Dallas Cowboys are in their season.

25
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: But I will say this, going into the game, you know,

26
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 3: you look at the records. We were seven and seven

27
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 3: and four going into that game. Cowboys were three and seven.

28
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 3: You cut, you throw records out of the window anytime

29
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 3: you're dealing with division opponents, things like that because of

30
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 3: crazy things happen. These teams are so familiar with each other.

31
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 3: I knew it would be a lot closer game. It

32
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 3: wouldn't be a lopsided game. But for us to come

33
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 3: away on the other side of a victory and with

34
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 3: the defeat extremely disappointed, it is I'll go.

35
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: Through it with you in a moment, but I just

36
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: this one feels a little different than the other two,

37
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: to be honest, absolutely like absolute Going into the Pittsburgh

38
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: Philly week, I think we both knew, and I think

39
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: the team is kind of acknowledged like they really could

40
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: have used the bye, like they really needed it. They

41
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: talked about how they hadn't really practiced as a group

42
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: together in weeks. The schedule just did not line up

43
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: very well for them. Those are two really good teams

44
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 1: that they were facing, and they were very close to

45
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: winning either one of them. But unfortunately they didn't. They

46
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 1: lost by a point to Pittsburgh. And similarly, like this one,

47
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,239
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia and got chaotic in the middle of the

48
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: fourth quarter in a game that was actually very close

49
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: throughout most of it, and unfortunately they were just kind

50
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: of owing to it. I think you and I both

51
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: were like, they got the mini buye. They look like

52
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: they look and feel healthier. They're talking about how they practiced,

53
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: and I think that's what's surprising about this that I

54
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: think we were expecting a win differently than maybe the

55
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: other two, Like I don't ever expect them to lose,

56
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: but I knew that that was a real task. The

57
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh in the Philly game, this one felt like, Okay,

58
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna get right and everything's gonna get back on.

59
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, you definitely felt that way.

60
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 3: The man everything was set up for as your playing

61
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 3: at home electric crowd. I mean, the energy of the

62
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 3: stadium was just outstanding. You got a wounded Cowboys team

63
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 3: that had lost five straight games, a lot of backup

64
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 3: there without their starting quarterback. There's two starting guards. One's

65
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: a pro bowler and one's an All Pro future Hall

66
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 3: of Famer, top tight end, top tight end, top corner

67
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 3: back Ey a lot of missing a lot of Yeah,

68
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 3: so they're missing a lot of pieces we had the

69
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 3: ten days we were healthier. You mentioned a bye week

70
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 3: and needing a buy and all those things. Prior to

71
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 3: this game, our offensive line was as healthy as it

72
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 3: had been in probably a couple of weeks. Jaden, you

73
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: can tell he would look healthier, look refreshed. He wasn't

74
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: running like he you know, in the two games prior.

75
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 3: He wasn't running with the same type of gist and

76
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 3: electricity like he was earlier this season. But in that

77
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 3: game he looked like he had fresh landers, look healthier,

78
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 3: and they come away.

79
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: With the defeat. That was a huge loss.

80
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I want to see how they respond one

81
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 1: more game before the bye, another under five hundred team

82
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: coming in here, who just won against a division leader.

83
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: So you know, take nothing for granted. I think that's certainly,

84
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: certainly you know what one of the lessons learned this week.

85
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: And I think to your point about this rivalry, there's

86
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: so many examples both sides where the team that did

87
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: not look like was going to win that day did,

88
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: like a one in fifteen Dallas team beat a Super

89
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: Bowl Redskins team in the past, a replacement team of

90
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: Redskins players went to Dallas and beat a team where

91
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: all their players crossed the picket line Clint Longley for

92
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: the old people on Thanksgiving the blocked by Troy Vincent.

93
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: That game was wild. So there's a million examples of this,

94
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 1: but this one, it doesn't change the fact that this

95
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: one really hurts.

96
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 2: Really hurts.

97
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 3: And we'll dig into why we came out on the

98
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 3: side of defeat because there is a lot of things

99
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,679
Speaker 3: that happened, especially in the first half of that ball game,

100
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 3: to where that game could have been over at halftimect.

101
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 3: You give the Dallas Cowboys, a team that, as I mentioned,

102
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 3: coming in wounded on a four game losing, five game

103
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 3: losing streak. There was enough things that we could have

104
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 3: done to have them pack it in at halftime. But

105
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 3: we then take advantage of a lot of opportunities, a

106
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 3: lot of great field position, and when you look at

107
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: it and when.

108
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: You up peel it back, we had nobody to blame

109
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: but us.

110
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: I agree like the Dallas coming in not only was

111
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,799
Speaker 1: on the losing streak, but with all the differfferent players

112
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 1: and all the different replacements that were happening. They had

113
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: like comedy of errors in the games leading into us.

114
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: And actually, if you watched the Philly game was actually

115
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: close until halftime and then it spiraled. And the Houston game,

116
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: Houston game got up on them, but they hung around

117
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 1: and then it spiraled. It was these kind of laughable

118
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: turnovers that kind of flipped the game upside down on them.

119
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,559
Speaker 1: That stuff happened early in this game. On them. They

120
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 1: go down the field. I want to credit the special

121
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 1: teams early. They blocked the field goal, gave Washington great

122
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: field position. Washington kicks a field goal. Could they have

123
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: done better there, sure, but they cashed in on it,

124
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: cashed in. Dallas gets the ball back, goes down the

125
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: field again, hits the upright. You caught break number two.

126
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: Decent field position, and this is where I think you're

127
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: getting to your point. Washington needed to get a lead,

128
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: sustain a lead, and I think Dallas would have pass in

129
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 1: and going home. But that's not the game they ended

130
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: up in.

131
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was.

132
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 3: You mentioned the block field goal, get extra get excellent

133
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 3: field goal positions.

134
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, you would love to get seven. Didn't get seven.

135
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 2: We got three.

136
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 3: So momentums in our favor, and it was after Dallas

137
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 3: started the game off moving the football against us moving

138
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 3: then we you know, we we buckled down in the

139
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 3: red area or tightened down a.

140
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 2: Little bit as you know, higher high red area, or as.

141
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 3: They got closer to our end zone, we're able to

142
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 3: force that field goal block field goal, which was outstanding

143
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 3: scheme by special teams coach Larry Izzo, outstanding execution.

144
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 2: By Kwan Martin and Michael Walker.

145
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 3: Knowing seeing some things on tape that the Cowboys showed

146
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 3: how we can we can get get some penetration and

147
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 3: being able to get that block and setting us up

148
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 3: in great field position.

149
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 2: Dallas. The missfield goal you mentioned, it.

150
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 3: Was the one, the one that really out to me

151
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 3: that we didn't take advantage of Bobby Wagner and Johnny Newton.

152
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 3: They forced a fumble. Yep, excellent field goal, I mean

153
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 3: excellent field position.

154
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: Again, this was after Washington had missed after.

155
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 3: Miss, after we missed the fifty one yard after we

156
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 3: decided not to go for it on fourth and two.

157
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 3: We can get into that, you know, we can get

158
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 3: into that as well, mister field goal, I mean we

159
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 3: get the fumble. We went three plays in an hour yep,

160
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 3: that right there, you're able to get points. So let's

161
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 3: say we get three, we get seven, I mean you're

162
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 3: up six zero, six nothing or potentially ten nothing for

163
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 3: a team that has lost five in a row.

164
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 2: They're they're like, you know what, same old story.

165
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 3: Let's let's just get out of DC healthy, you know,

166
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 3: and move on to the Thanksgiving Day. But when we

167
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 3: didn't take advantage of those those opportunities, you let a

168
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 3: team that's struggling, you let them stick around, hole, stand

169
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 3: in the game, stay in the game, stay in the game.

170
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 3: Right before the half, we're up three nothing, give up

171
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 3: an explosive play to the Cowboys against double coverage, and

172
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 3: you know this, this is what happened. Give up an

173
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 3: explosive play. Now instead of being up three nothing at halftime,

174
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 3: they kidd a kick a field goal. It's a three

175
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 3: to three game. The that first half could have been

176
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 3: totally different, totally different. Let them stick around, let a

177
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 3: bad team get confidence, and we lose the game.

178
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: So the game's three three. Dallas had a block field

179
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 1: goal and missed field goal of fumble and a block punt.

180
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah it's three three. This game wasn't lost late, it

181
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 1: was lost early. It was lost early. Absolutely one hundred

182
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,719
Speaker 1: percent agree with that. Hundred percent agree. So I want

183
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: to go back to what you mentioned, the decision to

184
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: not go for it on a fourth and two when

185
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: they tried a fifty one yard field goal. Austin Seibert

186
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 1: had missed a couple of weeks with the hittory A what.

187
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 2: Yard line where we are on a thirty.

188
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: Thirty four yard They'd been aggressive in the past with

189
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 1: going for it on these fourth and shorts. I believe

190
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: they threw on the third and I remember.

191
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 2: Surprised.

192
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: I was a little surprised by that. I mean, this

193
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: is a team that's run the ball very effectively this year.

194
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: It's a bad run defense. If you are thinking four

195
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: down territory and they've been a very aggressive team, you

196
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: would have thought run on third down. But whatever, that's

197
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: just second guessing and right to not go either way.

198
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: I think you were surprised that was a long field goal,

199
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: that was not a chip shot field goal. To not

200
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: go for it on fourth and two, what did you

201
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: make of that?

202
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 2: I was surprised. But then.

203
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 3: When anytime you have a sitch situation where you're thirty

204
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 3: two and you throw the football, maybe you're thinking, hey,

205
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 3: this is four down territory. You've told the offensive coordinator, hey,

206
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 3: you got two downs to pick up the first down.

207
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 2: Obviously that wasn't the case.

208
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 3: I don't Coach Quinney mentioned going into the game they

209
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 3: felt like, hey, this is this is kind of the

210
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 3: target area for for Cyber. We feel pretty good about

211
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 3: him kicking you know, fifty one fifty two yard field goal. Still, yeah,

212
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 3: again as aggressive as as we had been I think

213
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 3: leading to the going into the game we were eleven

214
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 3: for thirteen for fourth thousand.

215
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

216
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean one of the non conversions was the famous

217
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: bad spot on zach Ertz against Pittsburgh NAT conversion.

218
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: To right and then one of Philadelphia, which.

219
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: That's the one where I wanted him to.

220
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: Hey, so that that's probably like, Man, I can't win

221
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 3: for losing what you guys, But I'll say this. I'll

222
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 3: say that you're never gonna make us happy, But I'll

223
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 3: say this, how much of what part of the b

224
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 3: Rob injury played a part in not running the football

225
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 3: in that scenario on third and two, Dallas is are.

226
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 2: Run offense has not been you know, up to snuff.

227
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: It wasn't.

228
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 3: It wasn't what we were growing accustomer from the running

229
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 3: backs the last several games. In that game, Jaden was

230
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 3: the leading rusher seven rushs seven carriage for seventy four yards.

231
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 3: The running backs they didn't have a lot of success,

232
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 3: be Rob getting injured, so you don't have him at

233
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 3: full strength. Did they feel comfortable enough running the football

234
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 3: on that third and two? You don't get it. That's

235
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 3: why you throw it and in at fourth and two?

236
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 3: Are we gonna run it again? Or you know, do

237
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 3: we have a play down up that we gotta have

238
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 3: and we can convert. I think we need to talk

239
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 3: about the offense here, just in general.

240
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: At this point, So Dallas, I thought it was a

241
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: little overrated the way people were talking about their defense

242
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: coming in as it being really poor, like as previously mentioned,

243
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 1: like they have a lot of injuries, and if you

244
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: watch them, they'd actually been very competitive, extremely but these

245
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 1: turnovers by their offense was spiraling games on them, and

246
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the score looks really bad. Meantime,

247
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 1: their defense, Micah Parsons looks like Michaeh Parsons. Like the

248
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 1: last few weeks, he looks like Micah Parsons. This guy

249
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: overshown has really started to flash for them. They've gotten better.

250
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: This is about our offense, not them, really. And I'll

251
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: tell you the thing that really stood out to me was,

252
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: and this is a trend. Do we start talking about

253
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: this few weeks ago the Giants, who actually don't bring

254
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure packages did against Washington. Pittsburgh, who

255
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: does it bring up a lot of pressure packages did

256
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: against Washington. Philadelphia not as much, but we're winning with

257
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: four and Jalen Carter Dallas not surprised, but they brought

258
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: sometimes six, not just five, six free rushers coming off

259
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: the opposite Edgeward Parsons was where all the help's going

260
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: to be. Jayden was vacating and all of a sudden

261
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: there were corners waiting for him. This is troublesome, Like

262
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: what's going on with the offense is It's clearly this

263
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: is more than a trend. These teams are bringing pressure

264
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: packages consistently, often because Washington has not had answers for

265
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: them over the last few weeks.

266
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, absolutely.

267
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 3: And when you're game planning for a particular opponent, whether

268
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 3: you're game planing, you put your defensive game plan and

269
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 3: you're putt your offensive game planning and you're watching let's

270
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 3: call it the previous four games, and you're looking at

271
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 3: things that have caused that opponent problems, and as you

272
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 3: deal with us in our offense, something that has caused

273
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 3: us problems, especially lately has been teams bringing you know,

274
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 3: five six rushers the extra rusher, and we haven't been

275
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 3: able to have answers to those to that pressure, whether

276
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 3: it be wide receivers now you know, guy's not getting

277
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 3: open quick enough, the protection not being exactly what it

278
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 3: needs to be, whether it's you know, the protection going

279
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 3: the wrong way, you guys losing their blocks, losing one

280
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 3: on one matchups. There's been an accumulation of a lot

281
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 3: of different things. It's not one thing that when you're

282
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 3: not performing well, it's that you just can't pinpoint and say, hey,

283
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 3: this is it, because if it was, we can fix that.

284
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 3: Hey we gotta we got to get somebody in there differently,

285
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 3: or this is you know, how we how we combat

286
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 3: what they're doing.

287
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 2: There was also so the pressure practice.

288
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 3: The Dallas they blitzed seventeen times out of the forty

289
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 3: four pass attempts, seventeen and probably it would have been

290
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 3: higher except late in the game they were playing a

291
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 3: little bit will not prevent defense, but they were playing

292
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 3: a little bit safer defense on the back end covers

293
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 3: keeping wanting to keep everything in front of in front

294
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 3: of them Seventeen times out of forty five, that is

295
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 3: a high value of pressure practice. It was almost thirty

296
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 3: nine percent for a team that coming into that game

297
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 3: they were more about thirty one percent.

298
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 2: Yep, blitz blitz Ray So yes, because they have.

299
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: A star pass rusher on one side who wins more

300
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: than anybody but one other player in the NFL. He

301
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: gets a pressure rate of like twenty one percent on

302
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: his own. They don't need to do this is often.

303
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: But this is why it goes back to the Giants

304
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: didn't do it like this. Pittsburgh didn't do it like this.

305
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: Now Dallas didn't do it like this. All of a sudden,

306
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: they're looking at Washington. Guess what this is on Washington

307
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: to figure out answer to this.

308
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 2: That's what Brown.

309
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 3: Tennessee's probably gonna do it like that, And I don't

310
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 3: I even looked at Tennessee. I don't know what they

311
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 3: what they're blitz rate is prior to this game. If

312
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,679
Speaker 3: it's high, it's gonna stay high and may even go

313
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: higher and if it's low, they're gonna they're gonna bring it.

314
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 3: I'll say this is about partss man. The thing that

315
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 3: Dallas does great with him, and we do some of

316
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 3: this with Frankie, is they put him, Oh, they move

317
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 3: him around on the line of scrimmage. You can't you

318
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 3: just don't see him lined up against tackles where you

319
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 3: can chip him with a running back, chip him with

320
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 3: a tight end, where you constantly know where he's at.

321
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 3: They put him up over, They'll put him over guards,

322
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 3: both guards, and he caused problems with both of our guards.

323
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,439
Speaker 3: He they'll rush him up through the a gaps. He

324
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 3: was a nightmare scenario because of his quickness, his speed.

325
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 3: You know, you're not used to that type of speed

326
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 3: coming at you from from the that that interior pass

327
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,439
Speaker 3: rusher and he even when we didn't get sacks and

328
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 3: they and you know Dallas got four. The amount of

329
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 3: pressure that he was able to generate. Guys may have

330
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 3: been open, but Jaden didn't have time to stand in

331
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 3: the pocket and you know find those open guys because

332
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,360
Speaker 3: of the amount of pressure that him in particular, what's

333
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 3: causing him being parsonals.

334
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: I want to go back to this one thing that

335
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: just became noticeable with the pressure packages where Jaden leaves

336
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: the pocket quickly. Yeah, listen, they're outnumbered. There was a

337
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: couple of times free rushers were coming at him. So

338
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: he makes the right decision. He leaves and he goes

339
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: to his right. There's been a tendency for him. All

340
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: of a sudden, here they are bringing five or six.

341
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 1: Why is that cornerback not covering anybody. He's standing there

342
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:45,360
Speaker 1: waiting for him.

343
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 2: They were man.

344
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 3: Probably fire zones or trap cover So you know, there's

345
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,360
Speaker 3: teams where you can bring five, there's coverages where pressures

346
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 3: where you can bring five, and you can play trap

347
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 3: coverage and what not. Being mean by trap coverage, you'll

348
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 3: have your corners playing the flats and.

349
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 2: You still play too deep underneath.

350
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 3: They're trapping any like outside, breaking white, any quick throws,

351
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 3: things like that.

352
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 2: So that's a trap coverage.

353
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 3: It's a fire zone mentality, bring pressure, play zone behind

354
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: it got vision on the quarterback, so you got guys

355
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 3: in position to make make plays on the football. If

356
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 3: the balls in the air, you don't have to worry about,

357
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 3: you know, having to play a lot of man and

358
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 3: man coverage. Things like that now that he also did

359
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 3: play a lot of man and man coverage too, and

360
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 3: we didn't win consistently enough in those situations either.

361
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: Yes, so, all right, so this isn't a different tendency

362
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 1: because these defensive backs were waiting for him leave the

363
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 1: pocket and run to that right side. They were literally

364
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: this is the difference from what we saw at the

365
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: beginning of the year, where he'd vacate all this open

366
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: grass in front of him and he makes this play.

367
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: That's not what Dallas did yesterday. These guys were up

368
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage almost inviting him to run

369
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: over to them.

370
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 3: It's a great scheme, great great defensive game played by

371
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 3: Mike Zammer. He's you know, he's one of the great

372
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 3: defensive coordinators in this game, and he has been for

373
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 3: a number of years. And it's smart by him because

374
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 3: think about how Jaden has heard a lot of teams

375
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 3: who have pressured us in the past. You bring pressure,

376
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 3: he escapes, he finds a crease, and you got everybody

377
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 3: playing man and man. Their eyes their back is to

378
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 3: the quarterback and he's running for thirty forty fifty yards

379
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 3: or whatever the case may be. What's the way to

380
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 3: combat that or good, you know, change up, bring pressure,

381
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 3: plays all behind it smart.

382
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: So let's talk about the receivers then, because let's go

383
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: back to they need to win a little bit more

384
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: one on one. Let me just start with Terry McLaury.

385
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: So he has one hundred yard game. Eighty six comes

386
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: on the play at the end of the game, right,

387
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 1: So three catches fifteen yards off of what happened in Philadelphia,

388
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 1: one catch, ten yards, whatever it was, It's just not

389
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: going to cut it for the number one receiver on

390
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 1: the team. Dallas, on the other hand, I hate to

391
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 1: do the comparison, but they're missing primary targets. Jake Ferguson's

392
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: not playing, Brandon Cooks isn't playing. Their running game is

393
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 1: not something that scares people. Cede Lamb's the player you

394
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: need to remove, but teams can't do that against him.

395
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 1: They move him around here. He has as many targets

396
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: in the slot as he does on the outside. He's

397
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 1: got thirteen, fourteen, fifteen carries this year. I'm not saying

398
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 1: make Terry Cede Lamb, but the point is Dallas seems

399
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: to try to find an active way to get the

400
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: ball in his hands as often as possible. And that's

401
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: not happening here for Terry McLaurin.

402
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 2: That's not there.

403
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 3: That's not our schame, our system, And I don't know

404
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 3: how much of it, you know as a byproduct of

405
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 3: us using the no huddle so much so you don't

406
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 3: want you want to be able to get to the

407
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 3: line of scrimmage as quick as possible. So that's why

408
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 3: you know Terry primarily lines up on the left side

409
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 3: of the of the football field. You know he's because

410
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 3: they want to go fast. Hey, run your route, get

411
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 3: lined up. Do it again. Now, if there are there times,

412
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 3: could you add more to Terry's up plate and bring

413
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 3: him in the slot more, put him in motion, do

414
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 3: some different things on the on the eighty six yard touchdown,

415
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 3: first time he lined up to the right side, they

416
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 3: ran a will wheel route from him. He lined up

417
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 3: inside and ran that wheel against a Cover three defense

418
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 3: against the Cowboys, and they find a find a shot.

419
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 3: So you have to there has to be some adjustments

420
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 3: made to where Terry's two goods only have three catches

421
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:41,120
Speaker 3: for fifteen yards and going in the fourth quarter. That's

422
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 3: I mean you talk about go back to the game

423
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 3: against Philadelphia, quiny Mitchell good good ricky cornerback, but he

424
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 3: ain't good enough to hold Tel the one catch for

425
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 3: ten yards. Well, he needs to be tested here testing,

426
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 3: so you know that that has to be And I

427
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 3: know they'll go to self scout during the bye week,

428
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 3: but these is like, that's figured out ways to get

429
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 3: Terry the football more often, get him engaged defense. If

430
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 3: you see if we going and we see that you

431
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 3: are making a concerted effort to get him the ball.

432
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 2: Now we have to adjust. Now we have to change

433
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 2: some things out.

434
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 3: Now that's going to open up opportunities for the other

435
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 3: guys because now they're like, hey, where's Terry at Terry's

436
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 3: Terry's line up to the right side.

437
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 2: Now, Terry's in the slot, Terry's.

438
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 3: Going in motion, Terry's in the backfield, you know, running

439
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 3: Texas rols. I mean, ceedee Lamb lined up at every

440
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 3: single position in that field yesterday and he has all year. Yeah,

441
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,919
Speaker 3: and they run a jet sweeps with it. They're getting

442
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 3: him the football and the multitude of ways.

443
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

444
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: I mean, interestingly, go look at his stats. It was

445
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: like seven catchers for forty yards. He didn't have any big,

446
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: huge impact plays, but the point is he's a focal

447
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: point of their offense. They naked a focal point. They

448
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: move him around consistently, and.

449
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 3: He had nine He had nine targets in the first

450
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 3: half the trade and how many catchs. I knew he

451
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 3: had five or six to what probably eleven two touches

452
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 3: to reverses in the first half if memory searched me correctly.

453
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 3: He finished with thirteen targets in that game. And that

454
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 3: actually was a down game for I said on the

455
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 3: booth on the on the broadcast, I say, I thought

456
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 3: he was going to have eighteen to twenty targets, yes,

457
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 3: in that game. And they you know, they end up

458
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,239
Speaker 3: getting their run game going, so that probably you know,

459
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 3: they didn't have to throw it to him as much.

460
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 3: And you know, so tight End also made a few

461
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 3: plays here and there for them. So yeah, credit to

462
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 3: them and their creativity. I know this is our system,

463
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 3: but just from my perspective as a defensive guy, when

464
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 3: we have to account for a guy being in a

465
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 3: bunch of differ so we used to call it. Speaking

466
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 3: of Dallas when we played the Cowboys, we would always

467
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 3: wonder where's Witt, You say, where's Waldough? So to speak,

468
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 3: like where's Waldough, Like you needed to know where he's

469
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 3: lined up because that will dictate, you know, coverage adjustments,

470
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 3: all those types of things.

471
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: All, Right, secondary targets, we haven't seen much with Alami

472
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: DA's a kiss. We haven't seen almost anything with Luke McCaffrey,

473
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: at least target wise, it's been very minimal over the

474
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 1: last few weeks. So I know they hit Diami Brown

475
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: for a couple of shots yesterday. He's been targeted a

476
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: couple of times. Noah Brown's become the number two target

477
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 1: at least as a wide receiver relatively consistent. Yes, he did.

478
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 1: But like this goes back to the larger point of Okay,

479
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: like if this is what teams are going to do,

480
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: it's become consistent that this is what they're going to do.

481
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: What are the answers? And I don't know that it's

482
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:01,159
Speaker 1: those secondary targets, but I do know they're not really

483
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 1: finding much room or much space in the game plan

484
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: as it is right now.

485
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:10,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's you know, you talked about the teams pressure

486
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 3: more than they have in the past, and some teams

487
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,400
Speaker 3: playing man and man, some teams playing a little zone.

488
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 3: You know, Dallas played a lot of his own against it. Yes, today,

489
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,640
Speaker 3: but part of part of bringing pressure. If you're bringing five,

490
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 3: you're bringing six. Especially if you're bringing six, you're bringing six,

491
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 3: you're playing man and man on the on the back end,

492
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 3: like it's it's man and man across the board. Do

493
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 3: you feel like their receivers can beat you win one

494
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 3: on one matchups and defensive coordinators are saying, hey, we

495
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 3: don't we feel like over you know, in the course

496
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 3: of a game for four quarters, they're not going to

497
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 3: win consistent enough to keep us and prevent us from

498
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 3: bringing a bunch of five six man pressures where we're

499
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 3: having to play man and man behind it. That's just

500
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: the reality. That's how defensive stink. That's how defensive coordinators think.

501
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: Can they win?

502
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 3: Do they have to represent requisite talent at these positions

503
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 3: to win? Now, guys may have won, but again, quarterback

504
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 3: may not have had enough time, the pressure may have

505
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 3: gotten to him.

506
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 2: So yeah, guys open.

507
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 3: There was a time where Jack Hurts got he got

508
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 3: opened on one of the one of the blisters that

509
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 3: the Dallas brought, but Jaden didn't have enough time. He

510
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 3: had to bail on the pocket before like he was

511
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 3: wide open and he had to he had to vacate.

512
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 3: So that's that's that's also a part of if you

513
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 3: move Terry around, motioning him, lining them up in different places,

514
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 3: doing different things to where now, as a defense, we

515
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 3: going to this game saying Terry McCain is their number

516
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 3: one guy on offense, that we gotta stop you getting

517
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 3: matched up against a lot you you know, just just

518
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 3: pre staff. You'll think somewhere flashed like from a defense light,

519
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 3: Oh shoot, why is he right here? What's the adjustment

520
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 3: we got to make? That's called free Other guys, though, how.

521
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: About the running game, which I've obviously we're very concerned

522
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 1: about this week. Brian Robinson hurt his ankle, didn't play

523
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 1: in the second half. Austin Ekeler, that was scary play

524
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: at the end of the game, and I just hope

525
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: he's okay at this point. But overall, the run game,

526
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: to your point, has not been nearly as effective. And granted,

527
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: the week after week two hundred yard rushing days, we're

528
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: probably not going to continue like that. Had to kind

529
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: of come back to earth a little bit like that

530
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: was extraordinary what was happening early in the season, especially

531
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: on the ground, But this one isn't that anymore? So

532
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: what are you seeing with the run game right now?

533
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 3: I think the games against the Steelers and the Eagles

534
00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 3: you can attribute to struggles to the the run game.

535
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 3: First one, b Rod missed the game against the Steelers,

536
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 3: so you don't have him.

537
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 2: That's a health issue.

538
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 3: But then also our offensive line had been healthy, like

539
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 3: we had well it was wildly missing the game because

540
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 3: of injury. Brandon Coleman has been dealing with injuries, you know,

541
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 3: Beiadis has been dealing with.

542
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: I think three different injuries.

543
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 3: So the health of the offensive line and b Rob

544
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 3: missing the game against the Steelers, I think that was

545
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 3: a part of.

546
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 2: The run game. And also Jade not being being.

547
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 3: Healthy part of our oppotent offense and what really opens

548
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 3: up the running game for the running backs. This is

549
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 3: the threat that you have to worry about Jaden keeping

550
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 3: that football If you know that, you know, especially when

551
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 3: you're running the reaid options and that defensive end has

552
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 3: a decision to make, Hey, I can't crash down because

553
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 3: Jaden may pull that and take off around the edge. Well, Steelers,

554
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 3: they had a great grain plan, not no b robbing

555
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 3: that game. Our again, their game plan was to force

556
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 3: Jayden and had the ball off tj Y Heigh Smiths.

557
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 3: All those guys they were they weren't doing anything, they

558
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 3: weren't reading anything. They was going directly at Jayde like

559
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 3: you're gonna have this ball off and we'll deal with

560
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 3: your running backs.

561
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 2: Not having b Rob being in there, big back.

562
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 3: Falling four for three, four extra yards, putting you in,

563
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 3: keeping you ahead of the change where instead of being

564
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 3: in second and seven, you're in second and five, you're

565
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 3: in second and four. So in that game that that

566
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 3: definitely hurt you. Jalen Carter was the boster of that

567
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 3: game was against us, and offensive line was health. The

568
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 3: game against the Cowboys, we were fairly healthy from the

569
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 3: offensive line. We had we had ten days off. Dallas

570
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 3: defensive front they just they they want them, they wanted

571
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 3: they wanted the trenches.

572
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: Oh Diggy Zoo had a terrific game against them. Partial

573
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: is a monster to deal Bobby Smith.

574
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 2: They won.

575
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 3: They they want the trenches, and you know that was

576
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 3: that's that was disappointed. That was disappointed, especially you mentioned

577
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 3: the Cowboys being well giving up one hundred and fifty

578
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 3: on the ground.

579
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: That's the one thing that carried over like they like

580
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: They were a turnover machine with Dan Quinn and Joe

581
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 1: Witt very good pass defense. He was, you know, throwing

582
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: against them with either whether it was Deron Bland or

583
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: Trayvon Diggs breaking records, you know. But you could run

584
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: the ball on them, like over the last couple of years,

585
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: you could run the ball on them, and that's been

586
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: a carry over here. Now they're marginalized with the people missing.

587
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 3: And let me let me ask you this, Brown, how

588
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 3: much do you think b Rob getting injured in that

589
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 3: game early changed the mindset of you know, hey, we're

590
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 3: going to go into this game wanting to run the

591
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 3: football on Dallas.

592
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 2: But now maybe a pivot.

593
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I think only Cliff can answer that really,

594
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: but maybe that that is part of it. And then

595
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 1: but then all of a sudden, you're just kind of

596
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: leading into what has become the issue that they have

597
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: if you're going to become pass heavy. The teams are

598
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 1: bringing this pressure packages and Washington doesn't have answers for

599
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: them yet. The other part of the field, it seems

600
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: interesting to me, and we'll get to the second half

601
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: because there was a you know, the fumble was a

602
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 1: big turning point in the middle of the field is

603
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: they don't seem to be exploiting the middle of the

604
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: field the way that they were early in the season.

605
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 1: In fact, when you see pass plays, not only was

606
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: Dallas waiting for Jaden to run to certain spots, but

607
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: he had to kind of feather a couple of throws.

608
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 1: One went over zach Ertz's head, but he was thrown

609
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: between three Cowboys jerseys. So they're waiting for balls at

610
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 1: around the numbers or outside the numbers, which also reads

611
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: to me they don't expect Washington to try much in

612
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 1: the middle of the field, and so there's an adjustment

613
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: there too that the middle of the field's being vacated

614
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: by the defense because they don't see a tendency of

615
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 1: Washington to use the field that way.

616
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 3: And those teams, you know, you get your hit charts

617
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 3: of where the balls are going, where the targets are going.

618
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 3: I'm sure if you look at our hit chart over

619
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 3: the last few games, it's gonna be a whole lot

620
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 3: of you know, targets outside the hashes, even outside the numbers,

621
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 3: things like that.

622
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 2: Going back to the run game, and.

623
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 3: Now we'll say this, in the second half, the start

624
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 3: of the third quarter, they went heavy tight end personnel,

625
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 3: three tight ends, thirteen personnel.

626
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 2: Some people call it tray. They run the football, end

627
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 2: up scoring a touchdown. Yep, they ran the ball a

628
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 2: little bit more in the second half. Is that something

629
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 2: that you got to look forward look at, you know,

630
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 2: moving forward, like, you know what, Hey, we're gonna have

631
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 2: to get in bigger personnel, get in three tight ends ats.

632
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't know what they have. Health of our

633
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 3: running backs gonna be this week with Eckler b rob

634
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 3: you know, I can imagine you know, I don't know,

635
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: maybe trying to sign Chris Rodriguez Bak or some other

636
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 3: back Michael Wiley. See, yeah, you know, so that's yet

637
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 3: to be remindined to be seen. But you have to

638
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:21,759
Speaker 3: You can't just ask Jayden to in this office to

639
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 3: throw a forty five times. It's just not that's not

640
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 3: our rest bill. Yeah, that's not our recipe for success.

641
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: I mean at the end of the camp, I think

642
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: we talked about this a lot ago. Look at the

643
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 1: profile of the team and the personnelity team. They're actually

644
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 1: very physical receivers on the outside. They're a run team.

645
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: Like realistically they're a run They're a fifty to fifty

646
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: run team, and when they have been they've actually been

647
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: very successful. Like earlier in the season when they were

648
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: like at about a fifty to fifty clip and they

649
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: were rushing the ball really effectively, they were getting about

650
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: five point eight yards per play, which was among best

651
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Last few weeks, they've either gotten away

652
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 1: from it or haven't run the ball as effect or

653
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 1: maybe yesterday maybe got a little too far away from

654
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 1: it with the b Rob injury. They're around four yards

655
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: per play. It is a massive difference in time of possession,

656
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: in extending drives, in how many times you're gonna punt,

657
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: in how many third and long situations you're in. So

658
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,879
Speaker 1: there's been a shift here. Yeah, and another thing about

659
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 1: the run game. A lot of times it's more about

660
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 1: the volume too. And yeah, you want to be you

661
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 1: want to get four four yards a clip, but that

662
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: doesn't always happen.

663
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 2: One thing about the run game is, especially from.

664
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:37,280
Speaker 3: When you got volume, it wears a defense now, especially

665
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 3: a defense that wants to pass rush.

666
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 2: That was Cowboys.

667
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 3: You look at Okay, how did they get to what

668
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 3: three and seven coming into this to this game. Part

669
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 3: of it is the Cowboys are built to play with

670
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 3: the lead. From a defensive standpoint, they want to pin

671
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 3: their areas back rush to pass her.

672
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 2: That's why they we But their offense was hurting them.

673
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 3: They were turning the ball over at a high clip

674
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 3: twenty twenty turnovers coming into that game most of the time.

675
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 3: For most of the NFL, they weren't able to play

676
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 3: with the lead. So now teams can run the football,

677
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 3: run the football. Running football teams are running for rushing

678
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 3: the ball thirty forty times against them, and that would

679
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,360
Speaker 3: wear a defense down. That's gonna slow down your pass rush.

680
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 3: That's going to allow you to play action pass. Play

681
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 3: action pass is not just about getting linebackers and safeties

682
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,919
Speaker 3: to suck up for the run and creating windows over

683
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 3: the middle of the field and.

684
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 2: On the second level.

685
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 3: It's also to slow down the pass rush because as

686
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 3: a defensive end or defensive tackle, I put that ball

687
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:48,720
Speaker 3: in that running backs belly. You have to You can't

688
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 3: be running up the field thinking it's a pass. You

689
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 3: have to slow it down and then all of a

690
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 3: sudden I pull it. That allows you know, another second

691
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,280
Speaker 3: for your receivers to get downfield. Allowed shots take place

692
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 3: deep over to develop down a field. So that's why

693
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 3: you need you need a higher volume, higher amount of runs,

694
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 3: even if you're not per se getting four yards of clip.

695
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 1: You know, I know that the staff likes the idea

696
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 1: of fifty five what they would call successful plays, which

697
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 1: is either rushes or completions, and that's balanced. Yesterday at

698
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 1: halftime they'd only run thirty plays. They had the ball

699
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: six times, but they only ran thirty plays. So do

700
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: the math on that and how successful the drives were

701
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 1: and how often they controlled the clock, Like, that's not

702
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 1: a recipe to getting where they need to be.

703
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 2: It's not. It's not.

704
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,760
Speaker 3: And you know when you when they look at the film,

705
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,720
Speaker 3: they'll say, Okay, why why did we only have thirty plays?

706
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:51,399
Speaker 3: It's a execution here, it's a not sustaining a block here,

707
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 3: not you know, being off target maybe on a on

708
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 3: a rough play. There was a couple of times where,

709
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,720
Speaker 3: especially on the Rose to zach Ertz down the field

710
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,799
Speaker 3: where Jaden I think felt like Jack was gonna keep

711
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 3: it higher and more run more of a kind of

712
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 3: a corner route, and Zach read it coming a little

713
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 3: bit flatter, So that say, you know, maybe them not

714
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 3: seeing it the same way, and so that's that's something

715
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 3: I don't I don't know the answer to in terms

716
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 3: of what what they're telling those guys, But it was

717
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 3: a couple where they just weren't on the same page totally.

718
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,439
Speaker 2: Because there were big plays to be had there.

719
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 3: But one guy may have read it, you know, run

720
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 3: ham'm and be a little bit flatter. You know, Jade's thinking, hey,

721
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 3: take it a little bit higher, take it, take it

722
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 3: a little bit, you know, come out a little bit

723
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 3: higher on your route.

724
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 2: And it didn't happen.

725
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,320
Speaker 1: So they came out in the second half, they scored

726
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 1: the touchdown, missed the extra point, Dallas turned around and

727
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 1: walked down the field. That was the jail and Tolbert

728
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,879
Speaker 1: touchdown pass, got the lead back, then kicked a field goal,

729
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 1: and then what I think was the turning point. Turning

730
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 1: point was the Bates fumble, Like in the middle of

731
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 1: the field on that play, going back to they hadn't

732
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:04,720
Speaker 1: really done a lot in the middle of the field.

733
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: They finally found something the offense had really in the

734
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 1: second half had really kind of turned a corner and

735
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: we removing the ball. Yeah, that fumble was tough. The

736
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,240
Speaker 1: touchdown on the other end was blown coverage. With scoon Maker.

737
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 2: Right.

738
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 1: I've seen that a couple of times now in the

739
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 1: past few weeks as well. Suddenly it was twenty to nine.

740
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 1: It had spiraled in Philadelphia and the team wasn't able

741
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: to recover from it. In this case, this was different.

742
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 1: I will give them credit here. They turned around and

743
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: walked back down the field and scored again.

744
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you mentioned the fumble.

745
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 3: You know, up to that time, it was a one

746
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 3: score game the whole time, you know, the mainly a

747
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 3: field goal game. That was when up thirteen to nine,

748
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 3: they had just got a field goal, it's what eight

749
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 3: minutes eleven seconds left. It was a nice play call

750
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 3: that the that cliff and offense died up. Actually, it

751
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 3: was a play that Dallas hurt us with earlier in

752
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 3: the game where they faked a toss and uh, the

753
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 3: tight end school Maker got got down the field and

754
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 3: they had a big play. So, hey, what do we do.

755
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,280
Speaker 3: We had that in our game plan. Faked the toss,

756
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 3: hit base down the field. And I'll say this that

757
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 3: that kid think was Donovan Wilson. Yeah, he's he made

758
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 3: He made an outstanding play. He made an outstanding play

759
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 3: punching that ball out of a base's hand like he had.

760
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 2: He had it, you know, covered up.

761
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 3: He didn't have two hands on it, but he had

762
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 3: a tight close to his body and he's running. And

763
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 3: Donovan Wilson did he He he make a made a

764
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 3: heck of a play, punched that ball out.

765
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: He and overshown have been terrific. Wilson's been tremendous in

766
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: these kind of like he fills holes. He's a sneaky blitzer.

767
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: They used him in a lot of really good ways.

768
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: He made this play reminded me when Kwan hit the

769
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 1: ball out on Dallas Goddard the week before. Had we

770
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 1: fallen on that right, even a different outcome in Philadelphia,

771
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 1: had we gotten the baseball back in some way, might

772
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: have been a different outcome again.

773
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 3: And the thing was we because of the formation to play,

774
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 3: we didn't have a lot of our guys around bas

775
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 3: around the fumble. Dallas had I think maybe three guys

776
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 3: around it, where you know, we just had baits yep.

777
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,239
Speaker 1: So so Dallas scores that touchdown. I felt like, and

778
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: this is where things went crazy. Right now we get

779
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: to crazy chaos, right, chaos town, like crazy town. Maybe

780
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: the most unusual fourth quarter I can remember that this

781
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 1: rivalry has ever had. I don't remember anything like this

782
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: that went from there. Washington goes down the field, gets

783
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,320
Speaker 1: the Ertz touchdown, gets two point conversion. Right, nakes to

784
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: twenty to seventeen games completely.

785
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 2: Back that two point conversion we got to talk about.

786
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 1: That two point conversion was terrific.

787
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 2: That was a terrific that play call, Well, you fake.

788
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:55,319
Speaker 3: This z an read and then Eckler serves as a

789
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,280
Speaker 3: lead blocker around the edge, and that was great blocking

790
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 3: on that play. I think Erz had a Earth had

791
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 3: an outstanding block to to seal to seal that edge,

792
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 3: and and then Eckler coming around the edge.

793
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 2: That was an our stand name.

794
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, play call for a two point conversion, got us,

795
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 3: got us within three.

796
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 1: Got us within three.

797
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 2: Then what happened?

798
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:21,400
Speaker 1: Right, But at this point, like okay, things looked lost.

799
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 1: Now it's back in play. They'd scored two touchdowns and

800
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: Baits had a fumble. They were removing the ball in

801
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 1: that drive two, so I'm like, just get the ball back,

802
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: just get the ball back.

803
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 2: To two timeouts. Yeah, and added two minute warner.

804
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 1: Cavante Turpin made a play that was straight out of Madden.

805
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 3: He made what's the what's the button you pressed to

806
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,919
Speaker 3: the B button? That's the spin move. That's the spin move.

807
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 3: How do you know you play mad?

808
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:53,360
Speaker 1: I saw it on Twitter yesterday. My son plays Madden.

809
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,880
Speaker 1: I didn't pay you as a bad guy, and a

810
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,919
Speaker 1: million people put B buttons. Okay, okay, that was, first

811
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: of all, singularly one of the most incredible kickoff returns

812
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,839
Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Unfortunately happened to Washington. There are two

813
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,840
Speaker 1: things here. The coaches will tell you they did exactly

814
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,359
Speaker 1: what they wanted. They kicked what they called the dirty ball.

815
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 1: He fumbled it at the goal line. He's set up

816
00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,280
Speaker 1: to be tackled inside the ten. It's exactly what you want.

817
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 1: But you could also argue, never kick to this person.

818
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 1: He's the best kick returner in the NFL, has been

819
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 1: for a couple of years. Number one in kick returns,

820
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 1: number two in punt returns. He's a dangerous, dangerous player,

821
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 1: and at that juncture of the game, they got burned

822
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: for putting it in his hands.

823
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 3: I understand and thinking and why they kicked the way

824
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 3: they kicked that ball. And I even said, I even

825
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 3: said dirty ball, kick before before the kick was made.

826
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 3: The reason I said that kicking the dirty ball is

827
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:58,280
Speaker 3: because because you're in a field position game at that point,

828
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 3: you want to so went, hey, we're gonna kick it,

829
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:06,439
Speaker 3: hopefully tackle him inside the twenty we have we still

830
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,560
Speaker 3: want to play the field position game. Because we got

831
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 3: two timeouts, two minut and one. All those types of

832
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 3: things forced Dallas to kick.

833
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:14,800
Speaker 2: The ball back to us.

834
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 3: We're in great position to either tie with the field

835
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 3: goal or get a go ahead score or something like that.

836
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,399
Speaker 3: I didn't have a problem at all kicking the ball too,

837
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 3: and we ain't kicked them too. We didn't kick the

838
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 3: ball to him the whole game.

839
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,160
Speaker 2: We tackled him. Tackling them.

840
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 3: Well what happens sometimes though with the fumble. The fumble

841
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,280
Speaker 3: actually him fumbling the ball worked in his favor because

842
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 3: now you can get guys can get a little bit

843
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 3: out of their lanes.

844
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 2: And they didn't get out of their lanes.

845
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 3: So to speak, until he fumbled and he starts and

846
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,360
Speaker 3: then he makes that spind move and Jeremy Reeves, he

847
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 3: you know, he talked about how that was his play

848
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 3: to be made, and I mean, you know, it was

849
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,839
Speaker 3: a that was a tremendous play by the kid.

850
00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 2: It was we did a.

851
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 3: Couple guys, you know, didn't necessarily fish the ball carrier

852
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 3: like you want to. You want to have, you know,

853
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 3: two guys, one on his outside shoulder and the other

854
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 3: on his other shoulder and let's squeeze him and make

855
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:13,960
Speaker 3: the tackle.

856
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 2: There was potential blocking the back that that wasn't called.

857
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 3: But you know that's you don't want to have the

858
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 3: officials be the ones to determine how to come to games.

859
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 3: So I mean, he made it. He made a heck

860
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 3: of a play, like Jeremy Reeves. This this man, I

861
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,839
Speaker 3: know he's beating himself up, but there he's a dog

862
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 3: on special teams.

863
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 2: That that that guy does it all.

864
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's to try to tackle turping in

865
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 3: space like that. And you know he was, he was

866
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 3: on the right proper shoulder. He was exactly where he

867
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 3: needed to be. He was going to make make his playing.

868
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:48,760
Speaker 3: The kid just hit the B button.

869
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 1: He's one of the best kick returners of the last

870
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 1: ten years. It's been in this way with him. He's

871
00:45:55,080 --> 00:46:00,439
Speaker 1: a dangerous player. So the game was over, we thought

872
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 1: at that point, I mean, the airs out of the building,

873
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: the game's over. So I want to give them credit.

874
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: They walked down the field, did the right thing, got

875
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 1: points on the board, got a fifty one yard field goal.

876
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 1: I felt like they should have moved a little closer

877
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: at the time, but whatever, they got it right.

878
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 2: Tom was Tom was too Tom was more important than

879
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 2: it was.

880
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:20,919
Speaker 1: One forty something on the grime.

881
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 2: We only had two time outs.

882
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 1: You got it, you gotta so they had to get

883
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 1: the points on the board.

884
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 3: You got to get the points on the board because

885
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 3: you don't want you want to get the ball back

886
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 3: as quick as possible.

887
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:30,520
Speaker 2: So give them credit.

888
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 1: They got down the field fast, they got the points

889
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: on the board. They had enough time. If they got

890
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 1: a three and out to get a punt, they were

891
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,719
Speaker 1: gonna need a miracle. They got the three and out,

892
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: they got the punt. Anger's punt was good, you know.

893
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,359
Speaker 1: So it forced them in a really tough situation. And

894
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 1: then Dallas, they're the ones we might be shaking our

895
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:51,240
Speaker 1: heads about the turpin play. Their defensive backs are shaking

896
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,720
Speaker 1: their heads about where in the world they were, because

897
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,840
Speaker 1: while that was a great ball like throwing catch, he

898
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 1: should have been tackled at the fifty. The fact that

899
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,759
Speaker 1: he got by four players and then hit the gas

900
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 1: like Turpin. He ran faster than I've ever seen him run.

901
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: He was gone, and then all of a sudden, We're

902
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,800
Speaker 1: in the biggest upside down game I've ever been a

903
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 1: part of.

904
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 3: So not my question is, what's the button you hit

905
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 3: when you want more speed than Madden?

906
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 2: Is that the X button? Or is that the nobody

907
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,279
Speaker 2: here plays mad? So we don't know there's a button?

908
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 3: You outing me, I don't, I don't play. I'm out

909
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 3: of myself too. I don't even know I should know this.

910
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 3: There's a button you hit to accelerate. I think it's

911
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 3: the X button. Maybe I'm wrong. You guys can chime in.

912
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,800
Speaker 3: Somebody hit that X. But Terry hit the X button.

913
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 3: And there was a point where he just like he

914
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 3: took off, took off. And as I'm watching it, I'm

915
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 3: not saying anything. You're doing a great job calling it too.

916
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 3: I'm just like, oh my goodness, what are we watching him?

917
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 3: He is about to score this.

918
00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 1: This has been the most unusual season I think we've

919
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,360
Speaker 1: been a part of by far, and one of the

920
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 1: most incredible ones. You know, to have the honor of

921
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: calling these games. I know this didn't end up right,

922
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 1: but that was the last five minutes were simply unbelievable

923
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 1: and incredible. Yes, and the plays that were made by

924
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:23,960
Speaker 1: these players were stunning. The Turpen one was stunning, the

925
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 1: Terry one was stunning. The ability of this offense to

926
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 1: never quit, to see Jaden make another throw when it

927
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 1: has to be made, and he's cool, calm, collected through

928
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 1: all of it. That was a perfect play. I know

929
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 1: it wasn't intended to do what it did, but it did.

930
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 1: But he still had to make the throw to do it.

931
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 1: He was unrattled by it. That was shocking, like utterly,

932
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: completely shocking and amazing. And what I can't believe that

933
00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:00,960
Speaker 1: we're sitting here talking about is it's a footnote because

934
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 1: it didn't end up tying the game, which I cannot

935
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 1: believe that after that happened, it becomes just another play.

936
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:16,759
Speaker 1: It truly. That was I think the hardest. It was

937
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 1: so hard to walk out of that stadium knowing that

938
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:25,600
Speaker 1: that happened but it didn't do what it was intended

939
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:30,879
Speaker 1: to do, which was be a miracle. Yeah, it's hard

940
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 1: to take.

941
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:32,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it really was.

942
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,839
Speaker 3: And you know, they the momentum shift you talk about,

943
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:39,759
Speaker 3: the the highest of highs when when Terry you know,

944
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 3: gets into the end zone on an eighty six yard touchdown,

945
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:47,160
Speaker 3: and and then the low of lows when the extrappoints

946
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:51,800
Speaker 3: meents like just the all the air left the stadium.

947
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the game was over until they were turning

948
00:49:56,640 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: on sidekick for a touchdown, which Logan said, this is

949
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 1: the best case scenario. We actually get another shot, yep,

950
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 1: And they'd already had one. Hail Mary, Hail Terry, Yep,

951
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,840
Speaker 1: let's have one more. And I'm sitting there going I

952
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 1: don't think my voice is gonna handle it.

953
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 3: But but you're also thinking, like, do you not believe

954
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 3: that they're gonna do it?

955
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 2: I do.

956
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:27,520
Speaker 3: We were just showing at a fifty yard line. I

957
00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 3: can't remember the exact yard line.

958
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 2: You're thinking, hey, we still got a chance.

959
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, any other team in any other year I would

960
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,640
Speaker 1: look at this and go, well, that was that was incredible.

961
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 1: But it's not gonna happen, not this one. They'd already

962
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,880
Speaker 1: done it once thirty seconds ago. They'd already done it

963
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,799
Speaker 1: a second time six weeks ago. Like I put nothing

964
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 1: past them anymore.

965
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 2: Nothing pasted him. I will say this though.

966
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:56,280
Speaker 3: The Cowboys there their game plan. They're planning to stop

967
00:50:56,320 --> 00:51:00,800
Speaker 3: the Hail Mary was much better than the Cago Bears.

968
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:04,280
Speaker 1: None of the corners were waving in our plum crowd.

969
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 3: They had, they brought four guys, they came late, so

970
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,920
Speaker 3: Jaden was not really able to to get set and

971
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 3: throw throw the football like he needed to. Yeah, so,

972
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 3: I mean it was credit to the Cowboys. Man to

973
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 3: the Cowboys, I.

974
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:22,319
Speaker 1: Think after Philly, you know, and I think rightly so

975
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 1: at the time it didn't feel this way, but afterwards

976
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,919
Speaker 1: I heard the criticism of it wasn't urgent enough when

977
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,640
Speaker 1: they were down late and scored and then gave themselves

978
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,840
Speaker 1: a chance. That wasn't the case against the Cowboys. This

979
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,359
Speaker 1: team came back and back and back and back, and

980
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,360
Speaker 1: you know, I know it would have felt like stealing

981
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:43,480
Speaker 1: the win, but they were just about to do it.

982
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 1: And in the end, as you know, don't matter how

983
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: you win, and they almost pulled off what would have

984
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 1: been a second miracle this year. And I just I

985
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,880
Speaker 1: so hard to sit here and go I can't believe

986
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,359
Speaker 1: that play didn't do what I thought it was going

987
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:00,160
Speaker 1: to do for them.

988
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 2: Yeah it didn't. We got to move on, that's right,

989
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:07,280
Speaker 2: and we got to move on to the Tennessee Titans.

990
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,799
Speaker 1: Last thing, just because I love reliving this, because that

991
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 1: was That's a chapter in this rivalry, Like I never

992
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,280
Speaker 1: see anything like that. And well, what do you remember

993
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 1: a boy playing in the Dallas rivalry? Do you got

994
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 1: one that stands out that was weird like that? I

995
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:26,319
Speaker 1: wouldn't say weird like that.

996
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 3: The one that stands out, you know, it comes to

997
00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:35,080
Speaker 3: mind first and foremost is the twenty twelve game seven,

998
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 3: game sixteen of the regular season winner take all in

999
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 3: and for the division that was played at our at

1000
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 3: our stadium. That that game, you know, just because everything

1001
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,720
Speaker 3: is on the line Sunday night football, I mean Alpha

1002
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,840
Speaker 3: Morris rushed for two hundred yards, I mean our standing

1003
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,920
Speaker 3: football game. Defensively, we we put in, uh speaking of blitzes,

1004
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 3: we put in these these blitzes that Dallas had no

1005
00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 3: answer for. I mean we had we had Tony Romo

1006
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:03,719
Speaker 3: on the tremendous arrests that ball game. I think your

1007
00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 3: boy got two sacks in that game.

1008
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 2: But yeah, that one comes to my you know, of

1009
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 2: that rivalry.

1010
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 1: You weren't here for the one where there was the

1011
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 1: block kicked by Troy vill before I ended up with

1012
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 1: an extra play and Nick Novak kicked the field goal.

1013
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,239
Speaker 1: Because that one, that one, that's the only one I

1014
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,839
Speaker 1: can think of in recent times that was I think

1015
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 1: as weird as this one was. At the end.

1016
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:28,799
Speaker 3: I remember the play because it was all over you know,

1017
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 3: Sports Center and Sports Cats, whatever the case may be.

1018
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,839
Speaker 3: But I remember that that that playing I played with

1019
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:38,640
Speaker 3: Troy and Buffalo, so you know, he's my friends obviously, Uh,

1020
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,799
Speaker 3: you know, seeing that play and seeing them seeing that

1021
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:44,440
Speaker 3: happened in Sean Sean Taylor recovering and running and then

1022
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 3: the face mask penalty that uh, you know, gave us

1023
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 3: another fifteen yards. So you know, it's definitely those two

1024
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 3: that I got to think about. The the Monday Night

1025
00:53:56,120 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 3: miracle with Santana Moss and the two touchdowns, which the

1026
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:03,480
Speaker 3: tann will tell you the offense hadn't done anything in

1027
00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:05,200
Speaker 3: the game that that entire game.

1028
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 1: I don't think they had one hundred yards of offense in

1029
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:10,279
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter when those two plays happened. Yeah, it

1030
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:14,120
Speaker 1: was similar where Washington's offense really wasn't doing anything and

1031
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 1: then kind of out of blue in the second half.

1032
00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 1: Wh's lost in this as it kind of woke up

1033
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 1: in the second aff. It's unfortunate that the result was

1034
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:23,240
Speaker 1: what it was. All Right, one more before the buy Tennessee.

1035
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:24,799
Speaker 1: Gonna need it.

1036
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 2: Big game. It is a big game. We gotta get

1037
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:28,640
Speaker 2: it done. You know you can.

1038
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 3: You can't go, you know, for loose, for in a row,

1039
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,399
Speaker 3: three straight at home, that would that would be three

1040
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:38,720
Speaker 3: straight at Hall. Right, just got you whatever you gotta

1041
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,360
Speaker 3: do to get this victory.

1042
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:45,239
Speaker 2: All hands, all deck. Everybody whoever is healthy, gotta suit up,

1043
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 2: gotta get this one, all right.

1044
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,040
Speaker 1: Look forward to doing it with you next week Northwest Stadium,

1045
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:51,360
Speaker 1: Titans Commanders, and we'll talk to you on Monday for

1046
00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 1: the Booth Review.
