Hayley Sudden, Aisha Morrison, 8 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: and Jess Navarrez with you all of us back in 9 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,879 Speaker 1: the studio today. We're hanging out. Life is good. A 10 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: lot of changes for this Cowboys organization that we've kind 11 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: of been charting the last couple of weeks, but it 12 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 1: seems like some things are finally coming into fruition here 13 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: for the team. So we're gonna talk a little bit 14 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: about some of the coaching editions and some coaches have 15 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: recently got some promotions and that kind of thing, so 16 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: we'll talk about that. But the first thing I want 17 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: to start with is this kicker drama. It is very 18 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: apparent and Jerry Jones actually told reporters that they were 19 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: starting from scratch when it came to the kicking position. 20 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,559 Speaker 1: We all know the way this season ended for Brett 21 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: Maher not so much on a high note there. The 22 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys have since taken matters into their own hands. They 23 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: have signed Tristan Viscaino. They signed him late last night. 24 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: We will see if he makes it through training camp. 25 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: I believe this is his second time going through this process, 26 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: but as of right now, he has been signed to 27 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: the roster. A couple of things before we open this 28 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: up for conversation now, he was signed to the practice 29 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: squad earlier this year. Whenever Brett first had those issues. 30 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: We watched him at practice a little bit and he 31 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: wasn't incredibly impressive during the time that we watched. Obviously, 32 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: we know we get limited sessions, so he could have 33 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: obviously turned it up after that and in the week's prior. 34 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: But it'll be interesting to see, you know, is he 35 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: a permanent fixture. Is this they're putting their eggs in 36 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: his basket or they bringing him in as kind of 37 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: a competitor piece. So he'll be an interesting guy to 38 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 1: follow throughout this offseason and then into training camp. But 39 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: a couple of things on Tristan. He was signed to 40 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: the practice squad as I mentioned he was kicking for 41 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: the Patriots last year. He was two of two in 42 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: his field goals three of three on Pats in Arizona 43 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: prior to that, and then before that, he's kind of 44 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: been bouncing around the league. He was with the Chargers 45 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: for six games in twenty twenty one. I had a 46 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: really good season with the forty nine Ers back in 47 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, so he has the ability to kick. But 48 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: we will see, ladies. This obviously means that the Cowboys 49 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: are pretty much out on Brett Maher. Are we happy 50 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: about that? Give me your initial thoughts on no more 51 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: money mahur in Dallas. Go ahead. I noticed. It's my 52 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: bread and butter. You know, I'm so on the fence 53 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: about this because I was really impressed with the season 54 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: overall that Brett Maher had. But again, it is excusable 55 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: the way things kind of ended for him. So I 56 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: do understand the reason in wanting to, you know, maybe 57 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: move on. I guess it's just a It makes me 58 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: so nervous, It really does, because you look back to 59 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: last season and training camp and how all of this 60 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: really came to be, and it's funny how things shifted 61 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: because correct me, if I'm wrong, but Tristan was one 62 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: of the candidates vying for that kicking position back in 63 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: training camp, and it was a mess. I remember a 64 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: kicking situation was a mess. I'm being in Miami and 65 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: just watching it from AFAR and being like, yeah, all 66 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: of the tweets coming out, all of the videos of 67 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: I mean, there were balls going to the side and 68 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: the trees and the stands, like nothing was going through 69 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: where it needed to go through. So it makes me nervous. 70 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: It really makes me nervous because what I've heard of 71 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: Tristan is exactly what you said. It's it's not the best, 72 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: it's not, you know, maybe the most impressive, but light 73 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: at the end of the tunnel guys and some silver lining. 74 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: We were saying that about Brett ma Her last year 75 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: during training camp. Was Hey, this guy gives us a 76 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: little bit of trauma coming back up because of how 77 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: he left the first time and then look at the 78 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: season he had. So I have nothing but faith in 79 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: the Special team's coaching to maybe coach this guy up 80 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: a little bit and where he needs too. So I'm torn. No, 81 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: I agree to like they at least they're starting kind 82 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: of early, you know, as far as like trying to 83 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: figure it out and bringing someone in here that has 84 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: some experience. Like you said, you like, I don't know 85 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: if he Haley, I don't know if he is a 86 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: permanent guy, but he is a gentleman that has some 87 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: experience that is going to push whoever is whoever else 88 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: is going to be in competition. So this this camp, well, 89 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: i'm this training training staff, this coaching staff. Last year, 90 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: they really like competition from other positions. So maybe it's 91 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,239 Speaker 1: just like, let's bring a guy in here that's experience, 92 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: that has competition. And it's weird because when you read 93 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: his numbers and you go look at his numbers, you say, oh, 94 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: this guy's he's been efficient, Like he's been efficient in 95 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: a few times he's kicked, but how obviously you asked 96 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 1: the question of how is he going to be over 97 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:09,559 Speaker 1: prolonged period of time? So interesting, interesting to say the least. 98 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: I'm just again, like you mentioned, we didn't know that 99 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: kicking was We knew it was an issue, but we 100 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: didn't know it was that bad until camp. Ye, So 101 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: at least now they're trying to get someone in here 102 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: and kind of get something established beforehand. Yeah, Yeah, it's 103 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: where I'm at with it. It's just one of those 104 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: things where it's like, dang, you know, because kicking. I've 105 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: always said this, kicking is like the one position I 106 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: think on the field that is unforgivable, yes, right, And 107 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: I think really close second to that is the cornerback 108 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: or the secondary because you know, like you're set up 109 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: for failure in those situations. But when it comes to 110 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: being a kicker, you don't get the chances that a 111 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: lot of these other positions have. You know, like think 112 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: about where Jerry was whenever Brett first missed that kick 113 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: against Washington, Right, Like Jerry already was like, hey, man, like, 114 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: what we're not gonna do? Is this? Yeah? Well, I 115 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: wish I wish you would say that line exactly. I 116 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: would love you say like he was already feeling it 117 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: after one miss kick. And when you think about what 118 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: Brett did for this team, I mean, I was looking 119 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: at his numbers last night. He was ninety point six 120 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: percent made field goals in twenty twenty two, ninety four 121 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: point three percent of those pats. And I'd like to know, 122 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: you know, the numbers even before the last three games 123 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: in the season. I imagine it was up there ninety 124 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: five percent, you know, or higher. So it's just tricky 125 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: when you think about, you know, the work he put in. 126 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: I remember when he was sitting down with us on 127 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: the radio show that I'm now Cowboys Hour. I was like, 128 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: what was that show called? It's been so long since 129 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: we did it. But when he sat down with us 130 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: on Cowboys Hour with me and Brad Sham and we 131 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: were we were talking with him and just the level 132 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: of intensity that he was at then. You know, he 133 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: was talking about how, you know, this was an exciting 134 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: part of his career. He was trying to figure out, 135 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 1: you know, from a family perspective, you know, because his 136 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: family doesn't live here right now because it's you know, temporary, 137 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: you know, so he's trying to figure out, like, is 138 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: my family going to move here? Like am I finally 139 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: in a place where you know, I'm I'm going to 140 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: be a Dallas cowboy for a while. So it's really 141 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: frustrating just from that frame of mind to see where 142 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: he was three months ago even and now when you 143 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: think about he's back job hunting and listen, I don't 144 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: think he'll be you know, for lack of a better term, 145 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: unemployed for very long. I think there's a lot of 146 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: teams in the league that need good kickers. Brett is 147 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: a good kicker, so he'll get picked up and maybe 148 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: he gets resigned again. You know, there's still plenty of 149 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: time to bring him back. He's one of those free 150 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: agents on that lengthy list, so that's really interesting. I 151 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: also thought this was interesting too. This is the second 152 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: straight season where the Cowboys have cut ties with a 153 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: kicker after one year. They did it the year before 154 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: with Greg's urline after he missed six pats and six 155 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: field goals. That is egregious. So I can't believe Greg 156 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: the leg And I did want to correct myself because 157 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: I was going back to look in my notes. It 158 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: was Jonathan Gary Bay and from Hira Lahoo that they 159 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: had in training camp last season, and then Brett Mohurt 160 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: came in and everyone goes, oh no. The world kind 161 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: of stopped for a second when whenever every all the 162 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: Cowboys nation found that out. But I was glad that 163 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: Brett was able to turn that that view of himself 164 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: around throughout the season. But I'm so torn about this 165 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: because you look at the you look at the start 166 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: of the season and Brett Maher's leg was the reason 167 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: really the Cowboys were able to win, especially when Cooper 168 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: Rush was first coming in to be adjusted to the 169 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: offense and then Dak was out. So it's it's just 170 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: it really is not fair to discredit the success he 171 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: had because of how things ended. But I do understandably 172 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: get why they would be quick to be like, Okay, 173 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: you're out. You you didn't do it when it mattered 174 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: the most. Yeah, And I get that. I get both sides. 175 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: It's such a flu sorry, no ahead, it's such a 176 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: fluid thing, like we're gonna look, we're gonna look at 177 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: so many guys and be like he got signed again, 178 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: Like I mean, or you're gonna look at some some 179 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: guys in the league right now that have been playing 180 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: for a while. I think there's a couple of guys 181 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: that have been here for a minute though that exactly 182 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: that are gonna be free agents, and you're they might 183 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: get picked up even after having not such great season. 184 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: It's such a like I said, it's like a fluid 185 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: thing to where a lot of teams are like, well, 186 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: I can just go find somewhere, I can go find 187 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: one somewhere else. But at the same time, it's like 188 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: it's so important, so how can you? But I just 189 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: think that's how the position has kind of been handled, 190 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: and it's kind of like what you say for me 191 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: one time, shame on you for me too, Like it's 192 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: it's it's my favorite. The thing what happened with Brett 193 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: is similar to like the Cowboys saw it the year before, Like, 194 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: well not the year before, but a couple of years ago. 195 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: It was like, he's great, but then you get those 196 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: extra points and it's like he's he's just cocking it 197 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: and he's just like, what are you doing? Like it's 198 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: so weird. It's so weird how it happened for him, 199 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 1: and I do agree that it's I don't know, a 200 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: bittersweeten the sense of like, dang, he has such a 201 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: good season and to finish it like that and not 202 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: just be it is is disappointing. But I guess it's 203 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: just a part of the game because that's what everyone's 204 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: gonna think of him as, right, Like, nobody's gonna remember 205 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: the fact that he banged out back to back sixty 206 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: yards against the Vikings at halftime to put that game 207 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: pretty much to bed. You know, no one's going to 208 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: talk about the fact that he was a perfect four 209 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: for four I believe it was against Washington and helping 210 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: help the Cowboys beat the Commanders in that you know, 211 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: second game with Cooper or a nine of eleven from 212 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: fifty yards or more. Yeah, like basically being one of 213 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: the best kickers in Cowboys franchise. Yeah, and then he 214 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: won the since the game, like, yeah, it wasn't it 215 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: it was, and so he Yeah, he was a huge point. 216 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: But that's another thing too, is like I don't I don't. 217 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how it is in a locker room 218 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: too much, but I do understand, like you also don't 219 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: want the team to lose confidence in the kickery also too, 220 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: because there were instance at the end, you're like, go 221 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: for two, go for two, And that's a that's a 222 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: tough situation to be in as an offensive player. You 223 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: go all the way down the field, you need points. 224 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: Then you're like to stay grounded and he's gonna make 225 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: it next time, he's gonna make an end. Then he's 226 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: not making it the next time. Yeah, there's panic that 227 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: sits in for an offense. I'm sure. So it's like 228 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 1: I streuss bones fossil actually one of the guys is 229 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: actually returning. Crazy. Yeah, look crazy, you know you're a 230 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: look crazy, but he's returning in this year. So yeah, 231 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: the kicker is one of my things I'm really looking 232 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: at in camp because it can make or break your 233 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: team in the playoffs. Clearly, yeah, clearly, there was a 234 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: little bit of optimism. And this is why I say 235 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: I don't see him having any issues getting resigned somewhere else, 236 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: because you know, the extra points were the issue. It 237 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 1: wasn't the field goals, right, He wasn't missing field goals. 238 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 1: He was missing extra points. So I think the silver 239 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: lining in that is at least in that San Francisco game, 240 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: you saw that extra point hooking left. Regardless of him, 241 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: we got blocked or not. That was not it wasn't 242 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: going in, Yeah, but the field goals were going in. 243 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: And if I'm weighing, if I'm weighing here, this is 244 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: a guy where he's going to spend all of offseason, 245 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: I imagine kicking nothing but extra points, getting you know, 246 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: mentally right in that aspect, and at least he's not 247 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: having to worry about the missed field goals. So positive 248 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: for him there. We obviously wished Bratt nothing but the 249 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: best if he's back at some point. You know, obvious 250 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 1: we'll cross that barage when we get there, but just 251 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: some interesting things going on before we get into the coaching. 252 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: I think we're going to do that in the second block. Um, 253 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: But I want to ask you, ladies, obviously that kind 254 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: of feels like a dramatic move almost for a guy 255 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: who was such a contributor on offense and he's not returning. 256 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: Where are some other positions you maybe see on this 257 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: team where you can kind of go, Like, personally, I 258 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: don't want him to go, but maybe for the good 259 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: of the team, we maybe need to do some evaluating. 260 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: Oh god, I know the tough question. Um, I can 261 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: talk about it first if y'all want me to. But 262 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: I just think that there's I've kind of been seeing. 263 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: I was watching yesterday how the Titans were kind of 264 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: operating right, and the Titans are letting go of a 265 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: lot of veteran guys, a lot of couple that I'm 266 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: looking at our contributors. I know, I know, free is 267 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: how many days but March fifteenth, But the Titans are 268 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: an organization where you know, they cleaned house, they got 269 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 1: rid of their GM earlier in the year after they 270 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: got smoked by what's his name? AJ from the Eagles. 271 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: I always get him in AJ Green and a J. 272 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: Brown mix up, but A J. Brown had the Titans 273 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: in a tailspin when the Eagles played them back mid season. 274 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: They got rid of their GM after that game. Now 275 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: they're clearing house, getting rid of veteran offensive linemen. They 276 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: release Robert Woods obviously, but to me, that's kind of 277 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: signs of like they're serious about getting better. And sometimes 278 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: I think that's why I don't envy being in the 279 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: front office, because I'm not the one that's having to 280 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,599 Speaker 1: make those emotional decisions. And I think that there's a 281 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: couple of guys on this roster here that emotionally I 282 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: don't want to see them go right, But maybe for 283 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: the good of the team and looking forward to what 284 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: you need to get to that championship level, you've got 285 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: to make those decisions. Oh yeah, I mean I guess 286 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: you say, like can you get can you get better 287 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: at that position? Like can you get better at certain positions? 288 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 1: And so I don't know, I was going to ask you, 289 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: you know, since you yeah, you know, yo, yo, man, 290 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: It's like a Miami covers guy and everything. Listen, put 291 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: yourself together. I want it is. But I've just been 292 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: seeing a little bit of a conversation about Byron Jones 293 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: possibly being somebody that's going to be a casualty or 294 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: a calf casualty. I don't know from the Dolphins he's 295 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: dealt with, you know, some hip injuries and some injuries 296 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: lately or whatever. However, is he still an upgrade to 297 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: you know, maybe your cornerback three or your cornerback two, 298 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: or just a depth piece that you can bring in. 299 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: That's and I always me personally, I truly wanted to 300 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: see him with this coaching regime, with this with Yes, 301 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: with the Cowboys defensive coaching regime, with the Al Harris, 302 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: with the Joey Junior with them, with the gentlemen that 303 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: were brought in after pretty much after he was gone 304 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: he was gone. Yeah, I would like to see how 305 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: he plays um with them. And then you brought up 306 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: the Titans like my guy Skywalker Steel shout out to 307 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: him as sports he brought up David Long Junior that 308 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: place for the Titans linebacker I Anthony bar I felt 309 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: like what he did here was admir bowls helpful, but 310 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: At the same time, we saw very clearly that in 311 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: coverage that people took advantage of that spot. And also too, 312 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: you want to upgrade at the linebacker position because it 313 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: allows Mica to be free and do what he wants 314 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: to do. Um Late Vander esh is a guy that 315 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: we are very confident and he played well. But can 316 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: you get better there? Can you get I mean because 317 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys could sign him back. Obviously can He's familiar 318 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: with the system and everything. But you know, if you 319 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: can get better there, let's let's do it. Let's you know, 320 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: let's do it. So I'm those are the two spots. 321 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: I guess. I'm like, maybe you can continue to upgrade. 322 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: I haven't seen a lot of offensive linemen, but that 323 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: would be nice. Cool. Yeah, Yeah, let's go ahead and 324 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: take our first break.

And that's how you know if 379 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: they're good when it looks easy, because it is not, 380 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: and it is a sport. Anyone who says it is not, 381 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,199 Speaker 1: m oh, I will I will have a debate about that. 382 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: Well that's not because right not right here, but if 383 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: anybody ever wants to let me. So, we were talking 384 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: a lot about the kicking situation, a lot of changes 385 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: coming to this organization. Of course, those changes started right 386 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: after the Cowboys lost to the forty nine Ers. They 387 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: made six coaching changes before eventually seven with Kellen Moore 388 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: leaving for the Chargers. So a lot of changes that 389 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: have gone around, and they have the Cowboys have kind 390 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: of started finalizing that list. They have added a couple 391 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 1: of new guys on Wednesday that were promoted, so Scott Tolzien, 392 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: he was moved from offensive assistant to the new quarterbacks 393 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: coach Jeff Blasco who was the offensive line assistant coach. 394 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: He is now the running backs coach, which, by the way, 395 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: the old running backs coach to get Pete was hired 396 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: in Tampa, so good for him. Coach Pete was always 397 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: good to us. And then Canon Matthews got promoted to 398 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,719 Speaker 1: assistant defensive back coach. He was doing some quality control 399 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 1: on defense. So just some promotions going on. There, a 400 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: lot of still moving and shaking. I think there'll probably 401 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: be a couple more hires before the end of the week, 402 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,719 Speaker 1: and then we will get a chance to hear from 403 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy for the first time next week at the 404 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 1: NFL Combine. But for the changes that are happening, you 405 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: know right now, and we've talked about this on this 406 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: show before, it really feels like this is a Cowboys 407 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: organization that is ready to get past the hump we've 408 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 1: talked about in seasons past, where it's kind of been 409 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,479 Speaker 1: a lot of talk and not a lot of action 410 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: on the back end. But I feel like Jerry knows 411 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: that that he has something really special here and he's 412 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: got to do what it takes to get them to 413 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: that next level. So I kind of just want to 414 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: talk about some of the coaches who have been promoted, 415 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 1: if there's any guys that stand out to y'all or 416 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: your thoughts just on I know you mentioned earlier how 417 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: they're starting early. You know, what does this kind of 418 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: how does this kind of impact the off season with 419 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: them getting to work so quickly. Yeah, I mean it's 420 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: when you go ahead and get the coach and stuff 421 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: in here. This is similar to it's kind of similar 422 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: to when Mike McCarthy, Dan Quinn, those guys came in 423 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: that off season. It was early, like it was far 424 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: before the draft, it was. And that's partially because that 425 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: allows these guys to get in here. And these are 426 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 1: gentlemen that are familiar to Mike McCarthy as well, So 427 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: these are some of his gentlemen. But they can come 428 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: in here and they can establish like, Okay, so what's 429 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: our identity gonna be? What are we gonna do? And that, 430 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: in turn, to me, is going to trickle down to 431 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: certain expectations of what who's doing what all you know. 432 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: I think Mike McCarthy talked about delegating to you before, 433 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: and I just think it's important for the team but 434 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,479 Speaker 1: also for the coaches, but for the team the players 435 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: as well to kind of know what the expectation is 436 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: and going into the draft having your staff together, I 437 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: think it's power. In my opinion. I think it really 438 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: is power not trying to play catch up after the fact. 439 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: Guys know what their jobs are and what you're going 440 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: to be looking for. How that can impact how you draft. 441 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: So you're drafting the right guys for your locker room. 442 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: And so even with like the most exciting thing for 443 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: me and it maybe not super exciting, but Blastco is it? 444 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 1: How do you say his first name, Jeff Blasco. Just 445 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: they're being a run game coordinator, like there being a 446 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: somebody that is like we're solely and granted, like Joe 447 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,199 Speaker 1: FilmOn was the online coach, but this guy has, you know, 448 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: insight on like how we're going to run the ball. 449 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 1: And we've seen with Mike McCarthy, I think he did 450 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: work with Mike McCarthy Blastgo before all three of those 451 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 1: guys were guys that were with McCarthy. Yeah, so there's 452 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: familiarity there with him, and he's getting guys in here 453 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: that he's comfortable with. I don't know nothing about Scott 454 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: told me nothing, like most of us have been trying. 455 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: Like I knew he was a former player, but we 456 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: don't really know to I don't know what to expect there. 457 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: But the blastgo thing him being our actual run game 458 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: coordinator and a running back coach is interesting to me 459 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: because I know that the emphasis of running the ball 460 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: and running it well is important to this team moving forward. 461 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm interested in what's gonna happen with these 462 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: httleman being here. I like the idea of this Mike 463 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: McCarthy culture spreading. Haley and I were talking about how 464 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: our windshields are cracked and how when when it starts 465 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: to get out, Oh my goodness, crawl that rock that 466 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: it was a rock and you know, I'll tell you later. 467 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: But the point is is when you see this coaching 468 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: reign of Mike McCarthy starting to spread quickly throughout really 469 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: this building, I think what it does for really everybody 470 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 1: has created this Mike McCarthy culture, which you saw more 471 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: of last year, and you've seen on the up and 472 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: up since he came in twenty twenty, which was a 473 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: very weird year. We all know that you can't really 474 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: start your coaching brain in that way, and since then, 475 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: I think Mike McCarthy has taken leaps and bounds to 476 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: establish what he wants and set those expectations and set 477 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: those identities. I also really appreciate a guy who will 478 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: move people up within his own staff to give them 479 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: promotions if you will, where they're deserving, and he knows 480 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 1: their strengths already, as those coaches, those players already know them. 481 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: They're familiar. There's no time to have to sit there 482 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: and kind of play ketchup of oh hi, how are 483 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: you nice to meet you? You're my coach. Now. There's 484 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: already that respect factor there for what they're saying because 485 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: they've been around these guys. So I appreciate that very much. 486 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 1: But I think what you're seeing is you're seeing the 487 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: final seal, if you will, of the Mike McCarthy culture 488 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: in this team, because I mean, he's bringing in guys 489 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: he knows, guys he trust, and to be honest, if 490 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy trust these guys, I do too, and maybe 491 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: that's both to say. But I have nothing but faith 492 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: in Mike McCarthy and how he runs this team because 493 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: it was incredible to watch last year. I can't imagine 494 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: when he has guys that he has full confidence in 495 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: knows can get the job done, It's going to be special. 496 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: Your question when you said you had no idea about 497 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: Scott tolz In, I did a deep dive. I'm currently 498 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 1: on wikipediae Scott tols In. He is a former American 499 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 1: quarterback who is now a coaching assistant for the Cowboys. 500 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: We know he is the quarterbacks coach. He played football 501 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: at Wisconsin, but he was an undrafted free agent. He 502 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 1: got signed by the Chargers back in twenty eleven, and 503 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: he spent time with the forty nine Ers, the Packers, 504 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: and the Colts. It was a two star recruit out 505 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: of Illinois in high school. Reminds me a lot of 506 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore, and I'll be interested to see, you know, 507 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: what his skill said and how he's able to work 508 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: with guys like you know, Dak and Cooper if they resigned, obviously, 509 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: but I'm also interested to see what he works like 510 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: with Will Greer. I know that you know this past 511 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: season was just a learning opportunity for a Greer and 512 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: you know, getting to learn from a guy like Dak 513 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: Prescott or even Cooper Rush. I think that combination is 514 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: really good to kind of pick their brain from. So 515 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: we'll see what he can do with the quarterbacks and 516 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: how he works with nes Meyers or not nes Meyer 517 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: he just left. Who's the new Ocott? Thank you? Yeah? 518 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: Their their last names are kind of tricky boat something 519 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: else that I think. And you're talking in length about 520 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: Mike and um, I get that. I think he's done 521 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: a tremendous job with this organization, but I think this 522 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: also could kind of be a make or break here 523 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: for Mike as well. You know, those conversations have been 524 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: happening for the last two seasons now. The positives is 525 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 1: that he has continued to improve. But again, I think Jerry, 526 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of the leadership guys on 527 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 1: this team are to the point where they're like, look, 528 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: we cannot keep wasting, we cannot keep on saying that 529 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: we're it and then we're not. And so I I 530 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: Jerry I think is finally hearing that. I believe that 531 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: he's kind of like all right, like time to put 532 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: up or shut up and and listen. I don't think 533 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: Mike has done anything wrong. I think it'll be interesting 534 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: to see how he calls plays and how that makes 535 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: things different. I'm actually interested to see if that is 536 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: even something that they continue to go forward with or 537 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: if it's just something where they're saying right now, we 538 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: don't know, but we're going to default to Mike as 539 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: the play caller. Um. I also think, though, as long 540 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: as you're the Cowboys head coach and you're not going 541 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: past a certain point in the playoffs, you're always going 542 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: to be questioned if you're not exactly yeah. I mean, 543 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: how many years with Jason Garrett did everyone sit here 544 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: and say, oh, is his job on the line? Every 545 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: every offseason? I mean, and the day after a while 546 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: lossow the under State Girl and it's why Era, It 547 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 1: was literally why Cowboys fans are? I really do? I 548 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: think that Jason Garrett eric really gay Cowboys fans like 549 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: I need to go see my therapist. But but I'm 550 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: so glad that you mentioned the locker room. I'm so 551 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: glad that you mentioned just like two years in a row. 552 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: It is what it is, two years in a row. 553 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: Your office couldn't get it done, and your defense was 554 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: more than capable, more than capable. And so I am 555 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: one of the people who really think it's important for 556 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: your locker room to stay together, for your offense, for 557 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: you to show the aggressiveness and the want to change 558 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: on the offensive side of the ball. Because it's staggering 559 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: that it's it's similarly happened, similar things happen in the 560 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,880 Speaker 1: playoffs two years in a row. I think it's important 561 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: that they address it and go forward for the team, 562 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: and also just the camaraderie of the team, Like I 563 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: really do, Yeah, they have to, I mean yeah. What 564 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: you don't want is you don't want another stagnant timeframe 565 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: where you look back years later and say, Okay, when 566 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: should I have made this move happen? When how long 567 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: was too long to keep people here that weren't making 568 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: it happen. So what I really appreciate about what we've 569 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: seen so far this offseason is, you know, some of 570 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: these coaching changes may have come to a shock as 571 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: a shock to us on the outside, but really when 572 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: you look at it, it's it's interesting to see who 573 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 1: was on there make it or break it year This season, 574 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 1: you know, I know Kellen was the biggest one that 575 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: we were all talking about, but it's interesting to see 576 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: kind of how quickly that moved along. And what I 577 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: think is a good new pattern to see is these 578 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: things are happening quickly. Like you mentioned to your point, Aisha, 579 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 1: is these are happening. These things are happening quicker than 580 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 1: I feel like they were in past years. It wasn't 581 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: a hold on until the very last second kind of 582 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: thing with Kellen. It was all right, you didn't make 583 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: it happen next and not that brutal. Right, Like, I'm 584 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: sure it was not that brutal. But it's I like 585 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: the speed that they're going with this. They're not wasting time. 586 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: It was very much so turned the page. We need 587 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: to focus and kind of revamp things here. Yeah, speaking 588 00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: of the players, we just got to push alert from 589 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: ESPNU Ceedee. Lamb apparently got a massive back tattoo and 590 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: I'm looking at it. I don't know if we can 591 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: show our viewers though, Like the tat it's pretty intense. 592 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: It looks like he got it done while he was 593 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: at the Super Bowl. Hid. Yeah, that looks like a hurt. 594 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: That's a commitment. Yeah, it is I'm looking at it 595 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: that I'm trying to like to say there there's like 596 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 1: some kind of big cat like a jaguar or a leopard. 597 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: On the left. It's got Kobe Bryant on it top 598 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: of it says my story isn't over Understate forty five 599 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: logo on there as well. There's a Warner Brothers logo 600 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:41,479 Speaker 1: and a Spartan helmet, so a lot of things like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 601 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: So obviously was a guy who's feeling he's feeling himself. Yeah, 602 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: clearly to hear like backstories of tattoos, and even when 603 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: you just see the guys in the locker room, you 604 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: can see some of them and sometimes I'm like, what 605 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: does that one mean? What ye did you get that one? Look? 606 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: Look lighting, look at him become a number one?

There's a saying though for 653 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys is that there's no offseason for America's team, 654 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: which has kind of been true. It's been cabin and 655 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: shaken when it comes. We talked about the coaching changes, naturally, 656 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: some roster changes are coming soon. But the big thing 657 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: right now, franchise tag period has opened. And I kind 658 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: of have to do some digging always when it comes 659 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: to talking about the franchise tag, just because I have 660 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: to like remind myself, like, you know, what are the 661 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: intricacies of it, because it is a little bit difficult. 662 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: And essentially what a franchise tag is is that a 663 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: team can take a guy that they know they want 664 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: on the roster, but they can't quite get to a 665 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,479 Speaker 1: long term, long term deal, so they give a guy 666 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: a franchise tag. It allows them to continue those negotiations 667 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: without having to worry about spending a ton of money 668 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: up front. Dalton Schultz was the guy who was on 669 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: the franchise tag this past season. It is not necessarily 670 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: player friendly because it does not allow those players to 671 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: speak to other teams. Unless I believe that it is 672 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: a non exclusive franchise tag, then players can obviously have conversations. 673 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: There's implications that we won't have to get too much 674 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: into details about, but naturally a franchise tag, typically teams 675 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: are going to do the exclusive tag because they want 676 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: to make sure that they can keep those players on 677 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: their roster at as much of a minimum cost as possible. 678 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: As he mentioned, obviously, Dalton Schultz played on that tag 679 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: this past season. He was making a fully guaranteed ten 680 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: point nine since he made it through the season and 681 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: some of those other checkpoints that he made. And there's 682 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: a couple of guys on this roster that are free 683 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: agents that could hit that free agency tag this year. 684 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz is a guy who could be retagged if 685 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,399 Speaker 1: they get there to it. If they re tag him, 686 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: they would have to sign him at thirteen million. That 687 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: would be his franchise tag cost. Some other guys that 688 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: I'm going to list out and I just want to 689 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: open the floor to y'all and just you know who 690 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: do we think it's that tag? But some other guys 691 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: that have been talked about so far in this offseason. 692 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: Tony Pollard is the biggest one. He is also, for 693 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: lack of better term, the cheapest option should tag him 694 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: at ten point one billion. That's eight hundred thousand dollars 695 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: less than Dalton Scholtz tag last year. Who else is 696 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: on that list? Layton vander Esh. I don't see a 697 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: world in which this happens. If you tag Layton, you 698 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: owe him twenty point nine million dollars, So I don't 699 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: really see that happening. But I obviously see value in 700 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: keeping Layton vander Esh on this roster. So that's a 701 00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: guy to where it's an option, but I don't see 702 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: it happening. And then you have Donovan Wilson, who I 703 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: also think it's an interesting option as well. You tag 704 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 1: him at fourteen point five million, or you can hit 705 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: him with a transition tag at eleven point nine. My 706 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: question for you, ladies, of those four players, who is 707 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: the most important guy that you want on this team 708 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 1: no matter what, and would give that tag to keep 709 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 1: them around for at least one more year. We're not 710 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: talking future long term, but just for this upcoming season. 711 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 1: Who's the guy, if any, that you would tag to 712 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: keep around. I think the obvious answers Tony Pollard. There's okay. 713 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: To me, this is the obvious one. And there's the 714 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: reason everybody's talking about it because logistically it makes the 715 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: most sense. Costwise, it makes the most sense, and just 716 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: the season he's had, the importance he has on this offense. 717 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: I Yeshoua brought this up against the forty nine ers. 718 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: You saw the Cowboys unravel without Tony Pollard. You saw 719 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 1: it with your own eyes, everybody, So you need Tony 720 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: Pollard back on this team. Now. What will be interesting 721 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: is I think it's Tony Pollard or no deal, because yes, 722 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 1: get him his call on track, to get him signed, 723 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: get him back. But if you don't have to use 724 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 1: that franchise tag, then don't I think logistically, price wise, 725 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: if it's not Tony Pollard, don't use it. So I'm 726 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: going Tony Pollard. I'm gonna be basic with that answer 727 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 1: because it just makes the most sense. Bring TP back 728 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,919 Speaker 1: because you need him. You absolutely need Tony Pollard back. 729 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 1: And a lot of people have been bringing up, well, 730 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 1: the ankle injury. Is that going to impact anything? I 731 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: don't think so, because it's not like this is a 732 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: nagging injury that he's had. It's a break. It was 733 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: a bad hit happened once and we've talked about many 734 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,280 Speaker 1: times on this podcast alone, how great this medical staff 735 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: is here to rehabbing players and bringing them back to 736 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: their fullest extent to be healthy. So I'm going TP 737 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 1: or no deal. I feel like I'm playing deal or 738 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: no deal. Now, yeah, I think I would agree. It's like, 739 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: as much as I love Dono, like the Cowboys, don't 740 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: they value safety. Maybe they valued a little bit more, 741 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 1: but I don't know if they valued enough to tag 742 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: him or nothing. And I thought you made a really 743 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 1: good point just of like it's either you tag him 744 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: or you just, you know, just sign him, don't don't 745 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: don't touch the tag if you don't have to, maybe 746 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: you can just come to a legitimate deal. But a 747 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: lot of the things when you bring up Tony Pollard, 748 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,959 Speaker 1: I mean you look at the running back room here. 749 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 1: I mean, Mollie Davis is a guy. I think he's 750 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: he's a guy. He's gonna be a player. But a 751 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,359 Speaker 1: lot of the conversations being like Zeke gonna come back? 752 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 1: Is he not gonna be back? And when you look 753 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 1: at that side of things, to just go into the 754 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: next season, yeah you could draft a running back. Yeah 755 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: you could bring a guy in here, and I think 756 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: you could. But at the same time, just to come 757 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 1: go into next season with no veterans, like, no guy 758 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,439 Speaker 1: that's been here before and done it before. It's something 759 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm like shaky about, but I would definitely say at 760 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 1: this point, I would say it's Tony Pollard. Um, if 761 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,479 Speaker 1: you're gonna do it or not, it's and also too, 762 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 1: he's with Tony Pollard is interesting because all the things 763 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: that you kind of worry about with a running back, 764 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: he hasn't He don't have a lot of tread on 765 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: them tires, but he hasn't played a whole bunch. So 766 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: some of the things you kind of worry about with like, Okay, 767 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 1: if our franchise tag him, is he going to have 768 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: longevity this next three years or whatever the case may be, 769 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 1: feel like it's less of a concern because he has 770 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: not played a craptnel. He has not taken a crap 771 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,320 Speaker 1: to snaps in the NFL. So I'm on the fence 772 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: about do you use the tag or not At this point, 773 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: I think it all boils down to the Ezekiel Elliott 774 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 1: decision right when you If you keep Zeke around, the 775 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: contract is obviously going to have to be restructured. And 776 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 1: I think that's just the reality of the business side 777 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: of this game. He obviously brings value to the field, 778 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: and I believe it's really challenging for people who don't 779 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 1: spend time in this building talking to the guys, talking 780 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,439 Speaker 1: to the coaching staff, understanding the decisions that go into 781 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: keeping both Tony and Zeke. And it's wild because you know, 782 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 1: like I'll have conversations with like random people that I 783 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: see out and you know, they'll they'll ask, you know, 784 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,319 Speaker 1: like what's to do with Zeke? What are we doing? 785 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: And again, like people just don't recognize the value that 786 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: he that he brings to the table. You know, oh, 787 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: he's washed, he's not scoring well actually, like there was 788 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,760 Speaker 1: a streak where he scored a touchdown in ten eleven 789 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 1: street games. And it's not you being a homer. Just 790 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 1: try fact. Yeah, it's just facts. Now, do I agree 791 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 1: he's not the same Zeke that came into the league. 792 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:04,800 Speaker 1: But I think that's the challenging part of being a 793 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: running back in the NFL right now, because you're expecting 794 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,399 Speaker 1: your running backs almost to come in. You give them 795 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,760 Speaker 1: these you know, three three year contracts, these five year contracts, 796 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 1: whatever it is you come in. You absolutely get what 797 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: you can squeeze out of them and then it's like 798 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,880 Speaker 1: all right, onto the next And that's kind of the 799 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 1: way that the NFL is shifting, right, Like you're not 800 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,879 Speaker 1: seeing a ton of you know, long term running backs 801 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: like you saw with like Emmitt Smith or you know 802 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 1: some of these guys who you know were back in 803 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: the day, those Bruisers. So it's challenging because you know, 804 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: I want them both back on the roster again. Like 805 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: I just think there's so much value in having a 806 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: Zeke and a Tony, Like once they started utilizing that 807 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 1: run game, it was Yeah, it was great. It was 808 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 1: a great asset that you didn't see a lot around 809 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 1: the league. It was unique to the Cowboys. The the 810 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: issue that I see with tagging, and I don't know 811 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: the issue is the right word. The issue that I 812 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: see though with Tony is if you don't tag him, 813 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: he's out right like he's gonna go somewhere else, you 814 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Because the Eagles are going to 815 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: see that Tony Pollard available and they're going to go, hey, Tony, 816 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: we'd like to give you this, you know, three year, 817 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars, you know, deal to go to goe 818 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: with DeMarco Murray, right, and it's just always tried to 819 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,400 Speaker 1: be the cowboy. And obviously that's just like it's an example. 820 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: But so it's tricky, right, So if you don't tag him, 821 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,760 Speaker 1: I don't see a world in which the Cowboys would 822 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: match whatever somebody else can offer to bring him back. Now, 823 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: if you do tag him, you obviously run into the 824 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 1: issue of what is he going to be, you know, 825 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: the same guy. I know you talked about the injury. 826 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: The Cowboys have really great medical staff, but a broken 827 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: legs a broken leg, and it's we saw how Michael Gallup. 828 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,879 Speaker 1: It took him all year to adjust and he still 829 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 1: wasn't back to one percent. So now you've got a 830 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 1: guy where, let's say you do eliminate eliminate it's a 831 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 1: horrible word. Let's say you do not resign Zeke right 832 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 1: or restructure his contract or whatever it is. Now you've 833 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: got a guy to where like he's going to spend 834 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: all the offseason rehabbing. I'm sure he'll come back fine, 835 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: but you don't know the mental hurdles or even some 836 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 1: of the physical setbacks that he's going to have from 837 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 1: having that leg. So it's definitely tricky. But I do 838 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 1: like what you said about you know, if you don't 839 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 1: tag him, don't use it at all. Yeah, I do 840 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 1: kind of like that. I would personally give it to 841 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: Donno if they don't do Tony, just because I feel 842 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: like Donna was a really important part of the team. 843 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 1: But all of these guys are guys that I'd like 844 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: to see back here long term. I also think too, 845 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: when you look at how the run game was maybe 846 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: not used to the full extent this season, going back 847 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: to this whole Zeta conversation, it's so frustrating to me 848 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 1: because you don't really know what Zeke is still capable 849 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 1: of because you didn't see the run game when you 850 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: needed to the most. I mean really, there were times 851 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: where yes, you saw the run for a little bit, 852 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: and then the run was gone, and then you have 853 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 1: Dak throwing for how many plus yards over and over 854 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 1: and over and over, and you're relying on on the 855 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 1: pass game more than the run game here. So for me, 856 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: when people talk about, oh, Zeke is washed, get rid 857 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: of Zeke's it's just not a valid conversation because you 858 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 1: really don't know how much he can be utilized. Still, 859 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: you didn't see enough of him this season to be 860 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 1: able to say that. So I'm more excited to see, 861 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: you know, if Zeke does stay, if Tony Pollard does stay, 862 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: how that one two punch can be utilized to the 863 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 1: full extent, and that will trickle back down to Dak 864 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 1: feeling more comfortable with the run game. You're going to see, 865 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:33,400 Speaker 1: you know, that offensive line holding up, which will be 866 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 1: another interesting conversation there as well, and how that's going 867 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: to look next season. But it's a trickle effect, and 868 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: so I think what people fail to realize is what 869 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: you saw from the Cowboys run game wasn't necessarily a 870 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: game plan that was working for the run game. Even 871 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 1: though that was their identity, it wasn't what they were 872 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 1: sticking to for most of the season. So if anyone 873 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: saying Zeke is washed, don't come at me with that, 874 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 1: because I'm really banged up to I mean, honestly, if 875 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: we're being and just completely honest about ze this last 876 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 1: two years in particular, you didn't see him decline and 877 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: play I guess, until he was banged up, until he 878 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: was dealing with knee stuff even last season, like he 879 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 1: was killing it, and then he had the knee injury 880 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: and then this season also too. He it was early 881 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 1: in the season. I'm not mistaking his knees got banged up. Yeah, 882 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 1: the Lions game. And so when you the Lions, but 883 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: when you talk about but but then also to me, 884 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: you talk about Tony Pollard possibly coming back if you 885 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 1: do franchise tack him, if you are trying to convince 886 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,399 Speaker 1: him to come back. I know for a fact that 887 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 1: he is going to hopefully with this new coaching regime. 888 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: Want to know how much am I going to be utilized? 889 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 1: And how am I going to be utilized? Because it 890 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: was criminal that he wasn't used in the passing game 891 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: as much as he should have been. It was it 892 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: was so just the running back conversation is like who's 893 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 1: who's coaching, how are they coaching? How these guys going 894 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: to be active? But to your point with Zeke also too, 895 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: I've seen him he teaches also, like he talks to 896 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: these guys, he's selling them, like even Tony, he's selling 897 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: them like, hey, lean here and this is going to 898 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 1: open up for you here. There's some experience with him 899 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: that I think obviously gets undershadowed, you know, by him 900 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: not playing well in a moment or whatever, but I 901 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 1: do think he has been very healthy for this locker room. 902 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 1: Has been a pleasure to be able to meet him 903 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, he's awesome. He's one of the first 904 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: guys whenever I moved here that was polite to me, 905 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 1: that spoke to me. So again, this is this is 906 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: the hard part of our job is you know, getting 907 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 1: to know these guys on such a personal level and 908 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 1: right and I'm having to say like, yeah, calm down, 909 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 1: pipe down, We understand what you're saying, but pipe down 910 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:43,440 Speaker 1: a little bit. Gee. Yeah, So it will be interesting 911 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 1: to see. Like I said at the top of this block, 912 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 1: the franchise Tag window opened on February twenty first it 913 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: will the deadline two Tag players is March seventh, at 914 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 1: three o'clock, so obviously they have a little bit over 915 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 1: about a week and a half to get some of 916 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: those negotiations and decisions made, so well, continue to monitor 917 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 1: that this will be our last show though for a 918 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Aisha and I are headed to the 919 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 1: Combine next week, so we are so excited to be 920 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: bringing us some cool stories.
