Yeah, yeah, 11 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 1: let's do that. Let's go ahead and do that. You 12 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: predicted a thirty eight thirty two Cowboys win. So you 13 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: had the Cowboys winning by for the high scoring game, 14 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: very close, very very close. I had a more lower 15 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: scoring game. I had the Cowboys winning by two twenty 16 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: three to twenty one. And um, somebody had picked the 17 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons to win by three twenty four twenty one. 18 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: That would be the man from Houston, Danny mccreg so 19 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: places for you. Yes, you appreciate that, man, You know 20 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: I appreciate it, just you know a little bit. You know, 21 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: I had to put my GM skills on there. I 22 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: had my coaching skills and predict this. I knew it 23 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: was gonna be a high scoring affair. Um, and you know, 24 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: just listen to Church. That's it. That's all you gotta 25 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: do on the it'll be you'll be be perfect if 26 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: you do that. Mccraig, you can apologize. I think on him. 27 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: I think that, I think that this. I think this 28 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,279 Speaker 1: is hilarious. I've never been so happy to be wrong. 29 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: But as we get into this show, y'all can sit 30 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: here and act like y'all thought this was gonna happen 31 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: all y'all want to. But that first quarter opened and 32 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: I was on y'all text line and we all had 33 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: the same thought. This was ugly. I was right. I 34 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: take that out. What I predicted Barry Church thirty eight 35 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: thirty two Cowboys victory, a high scoring affair, and um, okay, 36 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: you were four point. You picked a four point when 37 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 1: I predicted a two point when in Church, Um, we're 38 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: right there, You and I, You and I believed that 39 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: the Cowboys could come out and get this thing done 40 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: and Dan even cray. I'm gonna tell you this all right. 41 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: What I did do after the onside kick, I immediately 42 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: because I'm sitting in the press box, I immediately went 43 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: to Twitter and look back on every bad thing I 44 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: said and deleted. I had what I always said, this 45 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:58,679 Speaker 1: is over over there. Then it was another one I 46 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: put out there, like, oh the crop the crowd has 47 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: done with this team. They know us, they know us, 48 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: So I cover my track. Man, My boy knew he 49 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: was tearing up all the receipts. Man, because I'm telling 50 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: you I was looking for all right. I was, oh, 51 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: a right, man, Hey, hey, your on your on your 52 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: stuff new he come on, man, don't don't be that 53 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: guy go in on that you said it said it 54 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: on it that guy. That guy be that guy. It 55 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: was rough man. It was rough U. Look the Cowboys 56 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: um are now one and one and they're tied for 57 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: first place. And that was an unpredictable scenario as we 58 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: looked at the first quarter. So let's dive into this 59 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: right here on the Players Lounge, brought to you by 60 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: Hotels dot Com. Uh. It was disgusting to see the 61 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: way the Cowboys are shooting themselves in the foot with fumbles, 62 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: fake punts. They did not come out ready to play. 63 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: And I'll be the first guy that meant. I used 64 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: to nail Jason Garrett all the time, but man, what's 65 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: your team doing? Watch your team ready to play? The 66 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys were not ready to play here. And one of 67 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: the things I couldn't wait to talk to you two about, 68 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: because you guys made the Cowboys is undrive the free 69 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: agents because you're on special teams. CJ's a good one. 70 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: Is a guy first ever guess we had on the 71 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: players lads last year. He was right there, slipped, could 72 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: not catch the ball. And then Chris Jones, it was 73 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: almost like he tried to aim the football there. So 74 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: what goes into a fake pump? Call here and talk 75 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: to me also about the second fake pump that they 76 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: ran on the fourth and five? How did those things 77 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: work on special teams? Start with you mccraig. Yeah. So, 78 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: so usually you know, the coach will watched the film 79 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: and they'll see a certain way, Like on the one 80 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: with CJ. Goodman where the past was short, you will 81 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: watching and you will see the corner or the guy 82 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: who was covering him bailing right, so you'll see him 83 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: bill all the time before the ball was snapped, and 84 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 1: you see that on film and you say, all right, 85 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: this is a chance for us to get a fake 86 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: pump because you know, no matter how he plays it, 87 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: he's going to be five or six yards away from 88 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: the receiver. And you know, they got the look that 89 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: they wanted. And you know, unfortunately on that one, you know, 90 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: Chris just short short of the short of the throat. 91 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: On the second one, usually it's hey, it's the same 92 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: as a defense right offense, you say, hey, if we 93 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 1: got we got a box where we have more guys 94 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: that can block that they have that can come make 95 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: the tackle, then that that's a favorable look for us, 96 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: so we'll running. You know, Unfortunately, on that one, I 97 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: think the defense had more guys in the box than 98 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: we had, you know that that we could block, So 99 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: it didn't work out for us. But it's really just 100 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: all based on looks that you see throughout you know, 101 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: that coach's career or what they've done in the previous games, 102 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: you know, to give you to give you the mindset 103 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: to go in and run those plays. Yeah, these these 104 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: both of these calls were headscratching calls for me. I mean, Danny, 105 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: you put it right on and you put the nail 106 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: right on the coffin when you said about the technique 107 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: and how each play is pretty much developed and what 108 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: makes them go for the call. But on both of 109 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: these instances, if I'm not if I'm not, um, it's 110 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: incorrect here they were both on the Cowboys side of 111 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: the fifty yard line. So it was just kind of 112 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: head scratching that you would make a gamble like that. 113 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: I understand that your defense wasn't stopping anybody all gang 114 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: leading up to those points, but to give him a 115 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: short field that was a little bit of head scratching 116 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: to me. But for me, I'm surprised that Chris Jones 117 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: wasn't able to make that throw. I mean, for those 118 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: who do not know, Chris Jones was one of the 119 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: most athletic guys on the team. I mean, he's always 120 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: up for that, you know, offseason award for being able 121 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: to stand it or be able to be a skilled 122 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: position as a special teams player. So I was surprised 123 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: he wasn't able to make that throw. But the most 124 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: head scratching thing about at all, and Danny you can 125 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 1: attest to this is that gut call up the middle 126 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: where they run, where they snapped into the PP and 127 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: he's up the middle. That's usually reserved for like a 128 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 1: two to three yard you know, cloud in the dust 129 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: type type situation. They had about four or five yards 130 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: that they had to get here, and you're snapping it 131 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: back to the PP, who's five yards and you're snapping 132 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: it back to the PP who's already and for those 133 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: who don't understand PP as a personal protector, yeah, and 134 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: he's already eight yards back. So that to me, that 135 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: was a bit of a head scratcher, Danny. I mean, 136 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: I know, you know just what I'm talking about here. 137 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 1: I thought that that gut call should have been more 138 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: of a two to three yard our fourth down conversion 139 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: instead of a fourth and five. So that was they 140 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: were both head scratchers to me. Yeah, I don't, I don't. 141 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: I honestly don't think they shouldn't run either one. I 142 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: think they had more of a chance on the first one, 143 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: you know, because it was earlier, and it was perfect, right, 144 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: they lined up perfect, they read at that cornerback and 145 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: he always did the same thing, and he did it 146 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: on that snafter the play was just short after that, 147 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: pack up your bags, man, and and all right, we 148 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: tried it, you know, and let it ride. Right. You 149 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: tried it, it didn't work. You come out there and 150 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: do it again. I remember I text you guys, and 151 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: I was like, man, these coaches must be like, hey, 152 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: they walked into mccarthur and be like, hey, I'm running 153 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: a fake point right here, right cool? And then it 154 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: didn't walk off because it doesn't sound like yeah, no, nothing. 155 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: It was just like we were trying this on this 156 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, well, what are we doing? But we get 157 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: it too, But it was it was It was a 158 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: lot of you know, head scratching calls and choices that 159 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: were made from the coaching staff that we, luckily you know, 160 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: overcame just by the talent and play of our quarterback 161 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: and our skill bus position players. Stand on the point there. 162 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: What you said, Danny was it was almost as though, hey, 163 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: they're no bad ideas, guys, Fine you want to do 164 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: let's do it again. Let's do it again. What was 165 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: head scratching about the fourth and five? And I talked 166 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: about it on NBC five last night is Jacques Taylor 167 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: brought up a great point says, if you're gonna go 168 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: for it with five yards to go, don't put a 169 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: bunch of special teams guys out there. This is and 170 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: give the ball to dari and Thompson. And this isn't 171 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: what he does. Go give the ball to the sixteen 172 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: million dollar running back, or give it to the thirty 173 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: one million dollar quarterback, or throw it to the twenty 174 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: million dollars receiver. You know, put it on the guys 175 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: you are paying money to get these kinds of yards, 176 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: not put it on these other guys here with a trick. 177 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: So that was an interesting thing. And so Barry, I'm 178 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: gonna start with you on this and Danny follow up. 179 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: Has Mike McCarthy gun two overboards with the analytics here 180 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: who we're looking at the fake punts, deciding the Rams 181 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: game not to kick the field goal, deciding in this 182 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: game against Atlanta to go for a two point conversion 183 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: and leave your team down two scores. Has he gone overboard? Barry? Yeah, 184 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: I think he's gone overboard. I mean, like I said, 185 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: both of those scenarios where the fake punts and all 186 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: that stuff was going down on fourth down, they were 187 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: both in the Cowboys territory. So like, like like I 188 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: said earlier, you're leaving this defense who's already shorthanded, they're 189 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: down to their third middle linebacker. You're leaving them with 190 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 1: a short field. I mean, I just didn't understand that, 191 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: and I think they were getting a little bit too 192 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: cute and deciding how to go for it. I think 193 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: you you made a great point there. If you're fourth 194 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: and five, don't leaving in the hands of like you said, 195 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 1: special teams unit leading it, leaving in the hands of 196 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: the guys who do that for a profession. You're quarterbacks 197 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: to thirty one million dollars like you said, and down 198 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: the line. Let those guys get that fourth and five 199 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: for you. That's why you pay them, that's why you 200 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: invest in them. But to get back to the point, yeah, 201 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: I think McCarthy got a little bit too cute. I 202 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: think he's going down the line of where he doesn't 203 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: want to be considered like a safe guy, like how 204 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett was who high fourth and inches. I don't 205 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: know if I want to go that. So he's he's 206 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: looking like he's want to be like a riverboat raw 207 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: and type of guy and and go down swinging. But 208 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: this could have cost this team in a long run 209 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: for sure with these uh, these head scratching moments. Yeah, 210 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lot to you. I think analytics was 211 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: out the window. I saw a straight panic the game, 212 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: the game was getting the game was getting ugly, and 213 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: it was like, we got to do something to turn 214 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: this around. And the first fake pump was was evidence 215 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: of that, and it could have worked, you know. You know, 216 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: sometimes the good call is the good call les it 217 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: goes wrong. And then we tried for the second one, 218 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: so you know, I saw a panic and I thought 219 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: it just didn't make sense because you already had your 220 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: defense out there on you know which short feels, you know, 221 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 1: from the beginning of the game, from the turnovers. And then, 222 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: like we talked about with special teams, what you want 223 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: from your special teams is okay, every once in a while, yeah, 224 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: you can run a fake punp make that splash play, 225 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: but you want it to be successful. But you want 226 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 1: your special teams to put your offense or defense in 227 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,839 Speaker 1: position in the best position to have success, and giving 228 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: them the ball in their own territory is not a 229 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: good plan for success. And we did that twice and 230 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: after the first time, I'm like, hey, man, just just 231 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 1: move on, and we just we just didn't do it. 232 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: So to me, it didn't make sense. You know, how 233 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: your defense is playing, you know, you've got some injuries. 234 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: You know, you've got some young guys out there. Helped 235 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: these guys out, and you know at that point in 236 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 1: the game, special teams did not do that. I went 237 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: and checked out the stats because I like to kind 238 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: of pour over a couple of things after the games 239 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: to see, Okay, hey, what certain certain stats can really 240 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: tell the story of a game. And last week, one 241 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: of the big statistics I thought that told the story 242 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: of the football game for the Cowboys was in the 243 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 1: red zone. You know, they were two for four and 244 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys needed to improve upon that. And so 245 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,599 Speaker 1: you look at the game and the stats where it 246 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: goes in the red zone. Cowboys five or six in 247 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: the red zone in Atlanta two or four, score more touchdowns, 248 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: you win the football game. Cowboys win it by a 249 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: point forty to thirty nine. And then looking at the 250 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: second half possessions, the Falcons defense did not stop Dallas 251 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: at Cowboys scored on five or six possessions and the 252 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: only time they didn't score was on the when they 253 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: turned the ball over all downs, but they were a machine. 254 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 1: It was truly a tale of two halves. And to 255 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: me once again that the Cowboys can figure out how 256 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: to you know, make these stop kicking field goals and 257 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: score touchdowns, they're going to have an opportunity to win games. 258 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 1: Mccrack uh. You know, listen, we won, right and and 259 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: and I'm happy that we won. And I'm still gonna 260 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: sit here and say, look what we expected to happen 261 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: with Atlanta's defense happened, all right. So yeah, if we 262 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,959 Speaker 1: could get it together and we could call some players 263 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: and we're going down the field and we and we 264 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: get it rolling. How we got a rolling against Atlanta. Oh, 265 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 1: we can definitely win some games, but we gotta come 266 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: out and we gotta start faster than we started this 267 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: week and last week, because you know, the competition that 268 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: we have coming up is if we start that way, 269 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: you know, we're not gonna get any wins. But I 270 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: did like the way that the offense started rolling in 271 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: the second half and we started getting some of our 272 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: playmakers involved, and that was very positive to see because 273 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: I've been on the play calling for while. So hopefully 274 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: Hopefully we continue that and that just wasn't our. You know, 275 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: we we have nothing to lose, so let's try to 276 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: catch up and run everything we had got. Hopefully that 277 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: is the game plan moving forward. Look, I will give credit. 278 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: I have to give a little bit of credit to 279 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: Kelly Moore and Mike McCarthy because they did not give 280 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: up on the run. I mean, the twenty down twenty points. 281 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: They could have simply said, you know what, thoo running 282 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: back out the backyard, let's put this all on dak 283 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: arm But they didn't do that at all. They kept 284 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: with the run. They gave him twenty It wasn't flashy 285 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: or anything like that. They gave him twenty two carries. 286 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: I think he had around eighty nine or ninety yards. 287 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't too flashy. But what I think it did 288 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: was he pounded and consistently pounded this Atlanta defense. And 289 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: if you saw in the second half, there was a 290 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: lot of mistackles on that Atlantic side, and I think 291 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: a lot of that has to do with the pounding 292 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: that Zeke was able to put on these guys. If 293 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: you saw that that goal I run, I think it 294 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: was like he ran smooth through Demante CAZy. He wanted 295 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: no part of the rest of the game. I think 296 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: after that, and I think his pounding to that defense 297 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: had a lot to do with their second half success. Hey, listen, 298 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 1: question because I may have missed the beginning of the game, 299 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: but I think did Tony Pauler start the first series 300 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: the first two stories? They put them? Okay, they put 301 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: a bull again, put the both of the game, and 302 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: they gave Tony the first two carries and he fumbled. 303 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: He fumbled the second. Yeah, yeah, okay, because because we 304 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: were talking about head scratch and stuff. You know, I'm 305 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: just trying to I'm just trying to, you know, level 306 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: it all up, make sure I got it all listed out. 307 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: Because I was watching the game and once again the 308 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: dudes on my fants team, and I was like, what 309 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: the is going on? It's another another one of those 310 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: secretive things. Right. They probably showed that in practice, right, 311 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: and they didn't want somebody's practice it, Like, hey, hey, 312 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna come out and the way that we're really 313 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: gonna fool Atlanta is we're gonna give TP the ball first, 314 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: and look, I'm gonna give him some advice.

Look? It was it was 329 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: a like you said, man, it was a tailor two half. 330 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: When you're looking up in a dictionary, this film should 331 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: be this game's film should be on there.

They had a patchwork offensive A B minus. 335 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: I gotta do it, man, just because it was at 336 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: the tailor two halves, just that first half it was atrocious. 337 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: I mean it was the decision making. The decision making 338 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: was downright awful. I understand that. But the way they 339 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: were able to patchwork this offensive line together and get 340 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: the second half rolling, I can't say that it was 341 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: just all terrible. I mean, those three first quarter turnovers 342 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: so terrible. I'm least giving them three nights. Let me 343 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: tell you something. Let me tell you something, full or 344 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: y'all argument, the best thing that could have happened, for 345 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: the best thing that could have happened for our old line. 346 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: It is the injury towards attack that got hurt. But 347 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: that that was the best thing that that had nothing 348 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: to do with coaching. He was a waring the offensive 349 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: lie out before he got They didn't fast together nothing. 350 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: I'm giving them. Listen, d's get degrees, all right, so 351 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: we got the win. So they're getting a straight D 352 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: for me, all right? They getting the D. It was, 353 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: you know, whatever, be a gambler do all this from 354 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: bringing out all every single one almost of the kickoffs 355 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: and get tackled inside of twenty five, to the fake 356 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: punts to going for two to run and Tony polar 357 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: at the beginning to it's a honey, things right that 358 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: they could have cost us to lose the game. Thankfully, 359 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: we were playing Atlanta twenty eight three and they're and 360 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: they're known for this, and they gave us the game back, 361 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: but they got to get a D for us. One man, 362 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: it was just so many things that they did wrong, 363 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: so many like just bad calls, like stuff that make 364 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: you wonder, like where have you been? You know, like 365 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: have you really been studying since you were off? It 366 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 1: just I just didn't understand it from a Super Bowl, 367 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: from a super super Bowl coach. And of course, of 368 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: course he's gonna get better. I mean, actually, let me 369 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: not say that. We hope that he gets better, you know, 370 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: in making these decisions, and he kind of, you know, 371 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: tell these coordinators, you know, this is what we're gonna do. 372 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: And when they start saying, hey, we're gonna run a 373 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: fake punt every time, tell them no. But they get 374 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: a D for this one. And Atlanta saved us. And 375 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: you know that played great. We came back, but Atlanta 376 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 1: saved us. We got up too early. I mean, they 377 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: got up on us too early. They took the foot 378 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: off our throat and they and they couldn't put it 379 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: back on after after we started rolling, I got to 380 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 1: take a break out to hear that from your church. 381 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: I gotta recover on on real quick, on on before 382 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: you go, before you go, we got it, before you go, 383 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: do it real quick, real quick, Cowboys Nation.

These 385 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: are the same two people that said Dak Prescott is 386 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: not worth forty one forty two million dollars. If it 387 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 1: was up to them, they would go ahead and sign 388 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton for a lesser deal and let him see 389 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: what he can do with this talent. So before y'all 390 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: go ahead, listen to what you guys remember backtrack a lot, 391 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: they backtrack.

We gotta 392 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: address this when we come back because Church been over 393 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: there putting words in the mouth out of context all is. 394 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: But that wasn't what I say it on Friday. That's 395 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: not what I'm confused. I don't know, I don't know. 396 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 1: If we have we had to take a break here. 397 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: We will set Barry Church straight because his listening skills 398 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: are not right there.

I was at the game last night, 443 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: and we bring in Danny McCray and Barry Church, two 444 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: former Cowboys players. Now, let's pick up on the slander 445 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: that Barry Church through at us last segment towards McCray 446 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: and I talked to press. Okay, so so McCray, I'm 447 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: gonna let you go ahead and an address Barry right 448 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: here before. So so let's start off with what Barry 449 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's interpreting, misinterpreting because what we said 450 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: was if that does not make a deep playoff run, 451 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: the Cowboys will likely not pay him over forty forty 452 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: million dollars and they probably shouldn't if he doesn't make 453 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: a deep playoff run, and they could go in another direction. 454 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: Knew he said Andy Dunk could be an option. I said, 455 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: we don't know who will be available, but if somebody 456 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: else is available, for cheaper, like you know there's a 457 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: quality quarterback, then yeah, they'll probably make that decision. We 458 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: didn't say that. You know, that's what they should do today, 459 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: all right, And to come on, come on, come on, 460 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: come on, come on, Church. You you watched, you watched 461 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: the same season as I did last year and you 462 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: saw listen. As a matter of fact, as the first 463 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: quarter was going on, I got a phone call and 464 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: the dude who called me had Dak on his team, 465 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: and I was like, hey, bro, don't worry. You know, 466 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: Dak gonna get these trash yards anyway. All right, this 467 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: is this is known. This is known. It's like if 468 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: versus anybody else, those are trash yards and not a loss. 469 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: Versus Atlanta, that's a hell of a comeback. And more 470 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 1: credit to him for doing it because he does make 471 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: it happen. But if you do that every game and 472 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: you lose, and you and that comes with six thousand 473 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: yards and forty touchdowns and you don't make the playoffs, 474 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: you ain't getting forty five million. I still believe that. 475 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: So that that's why I met with that. It was 476 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: a great It was a great game. He played an 477 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: amazing game, amazing comeback taking nothing away from him, but 478 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: that playoff run is still necessary for him to get 479 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: the money that he wants. Okay, Okay, it's political season, 480 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: and what you just did in that last segment, Barry 481 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: is aching to you. Turning on the television and you 482 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: hear Nui and Danny hate Dak Prush Scott. They never 483 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: they don't want to play. In fact, exact, they want 484 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton to get all the cash for funny Barry 485 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: Church in twenty he scored. That's that is what you 486 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: threw out there, miss representing the facts. And it's okay, 487 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: It's okay. My shouldiers are big enough to take it. Okay. 488 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: But what Danny said it's totally different than what you 489 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: interpret it. But that's okay, that's okay. What I am 490 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: happy for Dak Prescott. Let me make sure I run 491 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: off the numbers for the folks out there. Thirty four 492 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: forty seven, four hundred and fifty yards through the air, 493 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: one touchdown pass, three touchdown runs. First player in NFL 494 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: history have three touchdown runs and over four hundred yards 495 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 1: passing in this game. Dak Prescott, in my opinion, for 496 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: the second straight week, took the Cowboys down the field 497 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: where you wanted them too. Last week, that catch that 498 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup made was nullified. Okay, but he went deep 499 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 1: may make that catch, and I know you two agreed 500 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: with the p I call. I didn't. But the Cowboys 501 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: are right there and arranged to kick a field goal 502 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: to take it to overtime, if not possibly try and 503 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: throw to the end zone and win the game. And 504 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 1: then here he is again. Second half. He had a 505 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: fun by the way which led to an Atlanta touchdown 506 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: the first quarter, but the second half five or six touchdown, 507 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: five or six scoring drives for the Cowboys. He led 508 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: them to the win. He did what you want him 509 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: to do. He did what a guy who's asking for 510 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: and wants to have one of the better contracts out there. 511 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: And I tell you what, because we were all watching 512 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,479 Speaker 1: the Cowboy game, and I was kind of peeking out 513 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: of my side eye watching the Rams game because I 514 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: had Tyler Higbee on my fantasy team. Did anybody look 515 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: at Carson Wentz. Carson Carson Wentz is the last thing 516 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: he is is a franchise quarterback. The way he's two 517 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 1: costly interceptions, one in the end zone, and how many 518 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: times I can't tell you how many times I do 519 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: these interviews with NBC Philadelphia during Cowboys during the Cowboy Week, 520 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: and it's always who's better quarterback? Dak? Who's better quarterback wins? 521 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: And I'm like, yo, you guys took this dude second 522 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: overall and made all that ALEI a trade up to 523 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: get him. You gave him one hundred and twenty seven 524 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 1: million dollars, and let's be honest, this is a guy 525 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: who's not played well since Frank Wright left the building. 526 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: So many people or who picked Philadelphia this year, We're 527 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 1: putting it on Carson Wentz. Pete Prisco CBS Sports dot Com. 528 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: He said that Carson Wentz was going to have an 529 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: MVP like season this year, as he picked Philadelphia to 530 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 1: win the East. You didn't see anything in MVP the 531 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: past two games. This was a game in which the 532 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: Rams came out, beat him up over their head, Philly 533 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: made a comeback and Carson Wentz threw him out of 534 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: the game. Then I bring that up to say, you 535 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 1: go back and look at Dak Prescott. People said this 536 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: guy not worth the money after Game one. He put 537 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: on a performance and for some folks out here in 538 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys Nation, you're still down on Dak Prescott t about 539 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: his empty calories that you know, hey, it was garbage toot. 540 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: He won the football game, he got the win. Nobody 541 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: called Tom Brady's went over the Atlanti Fils in Super 542 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: Bowl garbage yards. Nobody called it empty calories. You know 543 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: what they called it. They called it a victory, and 544 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: they called it a Super Bowl win. This isn't a 545 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: super Bowl win, but they won, and they're now tied 546 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: for first place versus being oh and two getting ready 547 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: to go to Seattle. Dak Prescott should be the NFL 548 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: Offensive Player of the Week in my opinion, I don't 549 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: know how anybody else beat him for what he did. 550 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 1: As his team was down twenty points, they come back 551 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 1: get the victory, so boom, yeah, Simi piece, yeah, it's 552 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: it's it's only garbage. It's only garbage yards if you 553 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: if you lose or if you're not playing Atlanta. You 554 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: know all last year that they were garbage yards. This 555 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 1: this this one wasn't. And and like I said, shout 556 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: out to deck Man. He played his butt off and 557 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: got him to win. One of the best comebacks I've 558 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: ever seen it my entire life. And I'm sure a 559 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: lot of people feel the same way. So I'm not 560 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: I'm not down on deck, but if he doesn't make 561 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: a playoff run with all this talent that he has, 562 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 1: it'll be some people that's down on him. Yeah, I mean, 563 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: like I'm obviously I'm huge on deck right now. You 564 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: know the guy did. He went out there and played, 565 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 1: He played his hard on, led his team back into 566 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: the into the game. And it's to your point, knew 567 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: he with this division. I mean, I think it's it's 568 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: between It was at the beginning of the year. I 569 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 1: thought it was a two race. I thought it would 570 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,719 Speaker 1: be between Dallas and I thought it would be between Philly. Now, 571 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: the rash of the injuries the Philly faced on that 572 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: offensive line, you could tell right now it's it's starting 573 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: to rear its ugly head. But even with those guys healthy, 574 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Carson Winston, I just don't know if 575 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: he has it right now. So to me, I'm thinking 576 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: Washington they even look better than Philly right now. Dwayne 577 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: Haskins looks like he's doing a little bit better of 578 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: a job than wins right now at the quarterback position. 579 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: And we can't sleep on Washington's defense at all, but 580 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: for right now, after week two, I'm saying, right now, 581 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: the division, it's kind of up in the air right now. 582 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: But I gotta give it to the Cowboys for a 583 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: slight edge over Washington. But Philly they just looked down 584 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: right disgusting right now. I got yeah, I got you. No, no, Danny, 585 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: go ahead, no, no, I I still got us first 586 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: in Philly. Second. You know, they played the Rams who 587 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: played well against us last week, and then they ran 588 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: into the Washington you know front seven who will see 589 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: and we'll see, you know how good they really are. 590 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: So I don't think they had you know, easy game 591 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: so far. And what we do know about Carson Winson 592 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: the Eagles is they can start off whenever they want 593 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: too bad or good, but they know how to get 594 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: some gags rolling together. So I'm not gonna count them 595 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: out yet, but I do think that we are the 596 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: team to be in the division. Philadelphia's talent, in my opinion, 597 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: has been a little bit overrated. They thought that, Okay, 598 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: we've got these weapons now because they were saying in 599 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: the off season, Okay, what you have to do is 600 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: get Carson some speed down the field. Okay, So Deshaun 601 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: Jackson's back after being hurt last year, they draft Jalen Rager. 602 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: I'm not seeing it right now, and I'm also not 603 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: seeing them control the line of scrimmage. The Rams came 604 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: out there basically did to Philly even worse what they 605 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: did in the Cowboys, and they punched him in the 606 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: mouth with the run, and then they attacked them over 607 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: the middle of the defense. That's where Hippy was sitting 608 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: up here making three touchdowns and living on it. So 609 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: Philly's got some words that they've got to cover up. 610 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: And then on as far as the outside goes, fine, 611 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: you got Darius Slay who's good on the outside, but 612 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: they're in the middle. The middle area is soft and 613 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: you can attack Philadelphia there. They've got some warts and 614 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: we'll see if Doug Peterson can cover them up. But 615 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,239 Speaker 1: one of the biggest things Doug Peterson can't go out 616 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: here play for Carson Wins. He's got to be better. 617 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: You cannot throw a pick in the end zone. You 618 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: just can't do it. And I think it was Fuller, 619 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: the kid that ended up making that play on CD lame. 620 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: When the Cowboys went forward on fourth and three in 621 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: city kick in the field goal to make it a 622 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: twenty twenty game. He made another group another good play. 623 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: I think he was the one who made the interception 624 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: in the end zone. No, no, it was a different play. 625 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: It was a different player. But look, the Rams are 626 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: playing good football, and maybe we wrote the Rams off 627 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: too quick, and you start looking at that NFC West 628 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 1: right now. I picked Seattle to win the division. They're 629 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: two and oh. They get the Cowboys this week. The 630 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: forty nine good. Yeah, Arizona is two and o looking good. 631 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: They beat the forty nine ers week one, then they 632 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,479 Speaker 1: beat Washington. Then you've got San Francisco who lost Week one. 633 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: Arizona they beat the Jets, but boy, they lose Nick 634 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: Bosa to injury. Raheem Moster's gonna miss a couple of weeks. 635 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,239 Speaker 1: They're saying Bosa's probably gonna be out for the year. 636 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo's got a high ankle sprain. They've already had 637 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: some receivers here who are damned. So the forty nine 638 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,479 Speaker 1: ers are gonna they're having some issues, like they had 639 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: to pass last year they didn't have any, but the 640 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: previous two seasons before injuries really hurt them. So the 641 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: Rams in Arizona and by the way, I picked Arizona 642 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: and make the playoffs. The Rams and Arizona could be 643 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: in this thing, and who knows where the Niners fall 644 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: depending on where they're going. So and we got another 645 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: playoff team this year, so it's gonna be real interesting 646 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: on how that NFC West shakes out here. After two games, 647 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys look as though like last year in terms 648 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: of if you do your part, you should win the division. 649 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: They didn't do their part last year, but with everything 650 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: that's going on here, they should. They should win this 651 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: division if especially if they can get some guys healthy. 652 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: In my opinion, hey, let's take another break. We'll take 653 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: our final break here and want to get back into 654 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: one of my unsung heroes of the game. I got 655 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: three guys I want to talk about who I think 656 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: are unsung heroes of this football game that we kind 657 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: of didn't talk about that we need to and we'll 658 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: look ahead in the Seattle Seahawks, Louis Scrugs, it's Barry Church, 659 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: Danny mccraig, you're listening.

All right, Um, three guys that to me 712 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: were unsung heroes. I mean, obviously we know about Dak 713 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: Prescott and what he did, but just you know, in 714 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: the course of a comeback like this, Um, there's guys 715 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: doing some things and they're doing their part. Adalt Schultz 716 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: the tight End, set a single game and career best 717 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: in receptions with nine receiving arts eighty eight, also recording 718 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: his first ever touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter. 719 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: And then I think about the tackle right tackle Tarrance Steal, 720 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: the rookie making his second start for the Cowboys. And 721 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: then on the other side, he had Brandon Knight starting 722 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: at left tackle for the first time the season in 723 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 1: the in the second overall NFL start for him in 724 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 1: his second in his two years in the NFL. These guys, 725 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 1: especially once tack McKinley went out, were able to help 726 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: keep Dak Prescott clean. They the Atlanta only had one 727 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: sack and four quarterback pressures. So what those guys did 728 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,240 Speaker 1: on the offensive, lind I can't say enough of because 729 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,439 Speaker 1: I remember what happened last year in the Jets game 730 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: when Lel Collins and Tyres Smith missed that game and 731 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys were not able to get themselves a victory. 732 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: They were able to get themselves a victory on Sunday. 733 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: So I look at those three guys and I just say, hey, 734 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: very good job, unsung heroes. As the Cowboys come back 735 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: and win forty to thirty nine, who do you guys have? Yeah, 736 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and piggyback on that man, because 737 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: both Dalton Shots and those those two guys, I mean, 738 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: they played phenomenal. I'm gonna be honest. After that first 739 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:49,839 Speaker 1: fumble from Dalton Shots, man, I was the first one 740 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: out there talking about, oh, this guy's trash, get him 741 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: off to Phil and he can't do nothing out there. 742 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: But I mean he showed up the plane. Like you said, 743 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: nine receptions eighty eight yards and a touchdown. He showed. 744 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,319 Speaker 1: He showed that he had the same type of grit 745 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: and scrap that the rest of his team had. Especially 746 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 1: with the injury to Blake Jarwin. I mean, we finally 747 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 1: had a tight end that can threaten the scenes, that 748 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,240 Speaker 1: can be a mismatched nightmare. And then who was supposed 749 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: to be a big weapon for us this year, but 750 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: we lose him for the entire year. All Dalton Shows 751 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 1: did was you know, the first game, man, he had 752 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: a couple drops and then he fumbled this one, so 753 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 1: he could have easily mailed it in, but he went 754 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: out there got nine catches eighty eight yards and the 755 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: TV and I think, if I'm not mistaken, he was 756 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: one of the top three leaders in the receptions and 757 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: yards for that game. And then you mentioned the two 758 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: tackles out there. The two young guys, I mean one 759 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: making his second start and I think the other one 760 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 1: was making his first start, but earlier in that game, 761 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: I mean they could have mailed it in as well. 762 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: The edges were under attack, I mean, tacking Achilley on 763 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: one side, Dante Fowler on the other side. They were, 764 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 1: they were having Dak Prescott out there running for his life. 765 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,280 Speaker 1: But like you said, it was a tail of two halves, 766 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:50,919 Speaker 1: and in the second half they were able to bounce 767 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: back and pretty much short up that offensive line to 768 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: give Dak the ability to attack Atlanta downfield. So all 769 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: three of those guys, I mean, they played heck of 770 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 1: the game. So hopefully they'll be able to get that 771 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: throughout the year. Yeah, and I agree with y'all. So 772 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 1: I don't want to I don't want to say the 773 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,439 Speaker 1: same people. So what I'm gonna do is I believe 774 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 1: it was Neiah Brown with a big catch, catching run 775 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: that was That was a big play. When your number 776 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: is called, sometimes you just get one opportunity. He got 777 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 1: his opportunity. He made the most of us, So I'm 778 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: gonna give him that. I also, man, listen, the defense 779 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: gave up thirty nine points. But I think they played 780 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: way better than they played last week. I think they 781 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: made some huge plays. They stopped the run. I agree. Uh. 782 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: You know these linebackers, they got in there and they 783 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: did what they had to do. Jalen Smith made a 784 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: good play in the past game. They did some stuff 785 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: you know that they didn't do that. They didn't show 786 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: the first week that they could build off of the 787 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 1: young secondary. You know, they battled, they fought, you know, 788 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: they gave us some catchers, but they showed that they 789 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 1: had no quit in them and they and they they'll fight. 790 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: Scratching claw and my third one, it's gonna go to 791 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 1: the Great dan Quinn Man. He told Mike McCarthy, Hey, 792 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:59,439 Speaker 1: hold my beard. Hope you think you're doing something, Hold 793 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: my beard. Let me let me show you how to 794 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 1: really do this. So he's an awesong because because what 795 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: without him, what they say, Without him, none of this 796 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: would be possible. The Great dan Quinn Man, the ultimate 797 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 1: folder man. Dan Quinn was like, no, no, no, I'm 798 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 1: special with this. This is what I do. This is 799 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: what I do. Okay, let me show you. Let me 800 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: show me. And literally Jeff Jeff Schultz, who writes for 801 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 1: the Athletic Um down in Atlanta. He's covered Atlanta sports 802 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,800 Speaker 1: for a long time and he wrote a column and 803 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: the basic thing he wrote in the column is this 804 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 1: feels like this is really the end. And and you're 805 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: going back and looking at and you know what they've 806 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: done since the Super Bowl? He put their record out. 807 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: I think it's like ten and twenty something. But the 808 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: bottom line is dan Quinn is done much in the 809 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: same way that Mike Smith was done. You know, you 810 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 1: reach this point, you get here, and once you don't 811 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: break through, you just kind of keep on falling down. 812 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 1: And so they were given the opportunity to come back 813 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 1: and try and do it one more time. And look, 814 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: they can say all the platitudes and we've got to 815 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: just go back and do the work. But it's not working. 816 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: They're not going to be better this year than the Saints. 817 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: They're not going to be better this year than Tampa. 818 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,439 Speaker 1: And Rich McKay, who's now overall, he's over the GM, Thomas, 819 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: Jimmy Troup and Dan Quinn. But McKay is gonna tell 820 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 1: Arthur Blank fire him. So right now, I'm telling you 821 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: there's gonna be job opening in Atlanta, and it's gonna 822 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: be a job opening in Detroit because GM, Bob Quinn 823 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 1: and Matt Patricia are terrible. He fired Jim Caldwell. Bob 824 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: Quinn said nine and seven is not good enough. Matt 825 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: Patricius now in his third season with Detroit, he's only 826 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,840 Speaker 1: won nine total games. They can't even get the nineties. 827 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: Lucky if they could get the seven and nine. So 828 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some jobings. And you know what I'm 829 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 1: gonna tell you right now, I'm gonna give you a 830 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: name of a guy who I could easily see being 831 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: the head coach in Atlanta, Jason Garrett. Jason Garrett was 832 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: offered the job from Arthur Blank, which he turned down 833 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,800 Speaker 1: to stay with the Cowboys, and they ended up hiring 834 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,959 Speaker 1: Mike Smith for that job. So I think, if given 835 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 1: an opportunity, I think Jason Garrett could very well be 836 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: the next head coach in Atlanta. He's already gone through 837 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: the process with Rich McKay and Arthur Blank. So keep 838 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: in mind, you hurt it, you hurt it here, You 839 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: hurt it here. First, baby, listen, question real quick. Let 840 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: me ask you a question. So what what do y'all 841 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 1: think that says about the coach and staff. I mean, 842 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,800 Speaker 1: like there's two huge just comeback victories and then that 843 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 1: special teams that on side. How do you not jump 844 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 1: on the ball? I mean, I know the rules are 845 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: that you know, you got it has to go ten 846 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: yards before the kicking team can jump on it. But 847 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,919 Speaker 1: what goes through their mind right there? Maybe Danny, maybe 848 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: you can attest that, But to why they wouldn't want 849 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,439 Speaker 1: to jump on that, I just let it just blew 850 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 1: my man on that one. Yeah, So so let me 851 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: let me dissect that for y'all. Man, let me dissect 852 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: this onside kick, because this is this is the play 853 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 1: that's worked on. It's worked on about once a week, 854 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 1: right on Saturday. If you get out there and this 855 00:41:58,400 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: is where you do the onside kick, you're bringing them 856 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,280 Speaker 1: out there and you're getting ready, right. So I'm blaming 857 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 1: this The first person I'm blaming this song is Julio Jones. 858 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: The second group of people and I'm blaming this song 859 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 1: are the people who's supposed to be blocking for him. 860 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: And if you look at it, we actually did everything 861 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: wrong and so did the Falcons. Right. The people who 862 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: are who are on the line, what you're supposed to do. 863 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 1: This is why they call it the most dangerous playing football, right, 864 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: because if you're the kicking team, you're supposed to go 865 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 1: take out everybody that's across from you and let a 866 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: guy run behind and kept and scoop the ball, right, 867 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 1: So you supposed to eliminate everybody in front of him. 868 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 1: We didn't touch a soul. If you're the other team, 869 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: you're supposed to clear the way for Julio Jones to 870 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 1: be able to make a clear catch. So you're supposed 871 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,399 Speaker 1: to run up and you're supposed to hit the opposing team, 872 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: clear the way and let Julio do what he does. 873 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: Neither team touched anybody, right. Everybody just kind of looked 874 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,800 Speaker 1: and CJ was the guy who was supposed to be 875 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: going to battle with Julio, and CJ just be Julio. 876 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: But Julio is just sitting there waiting like his main 877 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: job because what you told the front line is don't 878 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 1: worry about the ball. We got somebody with hands who's 879 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,359 Speaker 1: gonna sit back catch the ball, right, So Julio's only 880 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: job was to scoop the ball, and the people in 881 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: front of him job was to go hit the people 882 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: that played for the Cowboys. Nobody did any of that. 883 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,320 Speaker 1: And the reason they didn't get the ball is because 884 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: usually when that thing rolls like that, uh, it doesn't 885 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 1: go ten yards nine times out of ten when that 886 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 1: ball is rolling, it goes about seven and then it 887 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,959 Speaker 1: dies and the nation's an easy play. They were waiting 888 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 1: for that ball to die, and it never died, and 889 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 1: it bit about. That's what happened. May my boy HOULI 890 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: my boy, Julio, I can't put My boy made a 891 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 1: business decision, man. He was like, hold on my handstrains 892 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: are already hurting. I got these line packers running at me, 893 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: running four fasts, running at me, about to blow me up. Man, Hey, 894 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: y'all take care of that. Y'all handle that man. Church. 895 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,799 Speaker 1: But Church, you see, if you see our squad bro, 896 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,320 Speaker 1: we didn't want to touch nobody even Oh yeah, no, 897 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 1: Archie didn't do nothing. I think that was I don't 898 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 1: know what number it was, but he screened past everybody 899 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: the ball the Atlanta Front seven. Julio, he ain't touch 900 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,359 Speaker 1: a soul in there, and then turned around and look 901 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: that nobody had the ball yet. And he was just like, man, 902 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 1: I guess I'll standing around with the rest of y'all. 903 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 1: So that was terrible. I sack it was all it 904 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:15,959 Speaker 1: was all wrong. It was all wrong on both sides. 905 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,399 Speaker 1: It worked out for us, but we didn't touch a soul. 906 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,399 Speaker 1: They didn't touch a soul, We didn't clear the lane 907 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: for nobody, and we just ended up getting the ball first. 908 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 1: It was It was bad, but it worked out for us. Somebody, 909 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,280 Speaker 1: somebody was sending that home with that Buffalo wild Wings button, 910 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,719 Speaker 1: except it was they gonna keep hitting that button to 911 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: the Cowboys win. So they made they made the ball, 912 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,799 Speaker 1: you know, bounce a certain way. They made Atlanta dude 913 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 1: dump stuff, and they just kept hitting the buttons to 914 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 1: the Cowboys one and we made it happen. So good 915 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: for us, but that was horrible execution. I was one 916 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 1: of the luckiest games I've ever seen in my life. Man, 917 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: for somebody to take I don't know if y'all Olympic, 918 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 1: but for somebody to get a curling you ever seen 919 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: curling in the Olympics. How they shoot that, I don't 920 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,040 Speaker 1: know how they made a football act like that, but 921 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 1: it was the same thing. It was just slowly, just 922 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 1: matriculating this way until across the ten. Man, I've never 923 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: seen anything like and you don't tell us. Listen, listen 924 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: if Joe, if Joe d Commissa's in their room, everybody 925 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 1: cursed out. Everybody. If you cursed out, you just get 926 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,399 Speaker 1: called all type of week whatever, because your main goal 927 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,280 Speaker 1: is to go out there and be a football player 928 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 1: and hit the guy that you were siding to hit. 929 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: And I didn't hear a pad smack at all that 930 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:34,360 Speaker 1: it was. I'm gonna in the show at this. It 931 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,280 Speaker 1: was a good point made by former Dallas Cowboys Scott 932 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 1: Brian brought us where he said the Cowboys were very 933 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: smart to make sure they kicked that ball towards their 934 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 1: side of the field versus Atlantic side, where the Atlanta 935 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 1: coaches could have yelled at their own players, get on 936 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: the ball, get on the ball.
