All right, Corel Dave Okay, 12 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: I'm awesome. So we have a lot to discuss, but 13 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: before we get into it, I wanted to touch on 14 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: a few things that um happened last night. Jason Witten 15 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: had his debut as a Monday night football analyst. He did, 16 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: so I wanted to see what you guys. First impression 17 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: of this was, um, I didn't know he was out there. 18 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: I mean seriously, like he he hardly ever talks. This 19 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: is me Like, I didn't realize this was such a 20 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: big deal for Booger McFarland like this, he was his show. Yeah, 21 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: nobody told him to shut the front door. Ever, I 22 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: thought he was really good. Though. I didn't mind that 23 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: he kept talking. That's fine, I guess. I just the 24 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,559 Speaker 1: whole point was, I was literally listening to Jason gonna 25 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: talk because it's just it seemed as though they were 26 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: kind of creating his moments for him talking. He just 27 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: didn't say anything, so I don't know. It was, yeah, 28 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: were you expecting more? Though? Yeah, this was like this 29 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: huge deal that Jason Witten is now, you know, jumping 30 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: into the booth for Monday night football. And then he 31 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: looked like the third guy, you know, like he looked 32 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: he didn't hardly ever talk. I thought. I thought McFarland 33 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: talked the whole time. It felt like Jason was the 34 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: sideline guy exactly. Booger McFarlane was the color analyst. I think, 35 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: unfortunately for Jason, Booger McFarland's got a lot more experience 36 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: doing this than he does, and it showed last night, 37 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: which you'll get better. I'm sure. I didn't think he 38 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: was bad. He did not seem comfortable to me, and 39 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: I don't yeah, like just I mean, I'm not best 40 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: friends with Jason Witten by any stretch, but knowing what 41 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: I know about him, I think that's going to be 42 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: a challenge for him to adapt to what he needs 43 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: to be like to be good at that. I think 44 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: he'll get there. I think it's it's just I mean, 45 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: it's with anything, you go from one career to another one, 46 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: and he's going to have to adapt to the idea 47 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: that he's got to have something to say about everything. Yeah, 48 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: And I don't think that, And he might already and 49 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: he just doesn't know how to, Like he's not used 50 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: to that. He's used to maybe as a player, being 51 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: a little more reserved, but he's got to learn that 52 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: every time there's an opportunity, you gotta jumping half something there. 53 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: I think it was in the first half yesterday, like 54 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: he said something and like it was so heavy in 55 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: football lingo that it didn't even make sense unless you 56 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: really follow football. When Joe Tessitur was like, expound on 57 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: that if you and like he it almost seemed like 58 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: he was like, what do you mean, expound on that? 59 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: Like that's it's football, said it, like, well, you gotta 60 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: do a little bit more for your average Joe sitting 61 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 1: at home, which the audience. Somebody told me a long 62 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: time ago that when you're doing that, you have to 63 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: figure out a way to say the same thing fourteen 64 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: different ways, because if you keep saying it over and 65 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: over like, it'll be repetitive and it won't be good. 66 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: And there was a moment where in the first half 67 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: where he talked about a play. I remember the receivers 68 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: running down the field, and he said the same thing 69 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: three times, and that's kind of his way of describing 70 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: the play. And I just remember thinking that, like, you know, 71 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna have to get better at that. But I 72 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: thought it was just kind of all accorded the way 73 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: that that booger McFarland was talking too much. I mean, 74 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: maybe they just should need to put the three of them. 75 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: Then then it's just fair games. I think that you're 76 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: supposed to view booger McFarland as a third member of 77 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: the booth. He's just doing in the booth. That's like 78 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: their new wrinkle is like, well, he's gonna have this 79 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: thing move. Yeah, he follows the line of scrimmage. Okay, 80 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: so he's sitting above the line of scrimmage wherever it is, 81 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: seeing how he's kind of shaken them. He's on the 82 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: camera card basically is where he is, and he's just honestly, 83 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: that's a great view. I mean, yeah, you get a 84 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 1: better view there probably than they get upstairs. I am. 85 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: I am encouraged by the first. I mean, yeah, Jason's 86 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: gonna he's got some work to do, and I mean 87 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: they all do. But I like the vantage point that 88 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: Booger's got and he offered some insight. And I don't know, 89 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: what do you guys think of the halftime what it 90 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: was they did, like the music with video Tory Kelly 91 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: Kelly and which I love both the ar Don't get 92 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: me wrong, I love boys men, I love Tory Kelly. 93 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: It was just awkward the way they did it. Yes, 94 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: I know entertainment is in their name, but like ESPN 95 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: always tries to do stuff like that, they're trying to 96 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: trick it up a little bit. I didn't stop. I 97 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: remember this was years ago, but like they bait, Like 98 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: when TRL on MTV was at its height, they tried 99 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 1: to like they were like, We're gonna have live performances 100 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: on Sports Center and it's like, no, stop, I want that. 101 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: I'll go to MTV or wherever that is. Just do it. 102 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: Just do sports. It doesn't You don't have to cover 103 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: every Touchdow. You could have given me five minutes of 104 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: analysis on the game and I would have been just 105 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: as happy. Right, Well, let's hope that Jason Waitin thus 106 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: get better as time goes on, as well as well 107 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: we hope with this twenty eighteen Cowboys version. So before 108 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: we move on into that, Jerry talked on the fan 109 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: this morning and touched on a few things. I wanted 110 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: to mention Xavier Woods. He's supposed to be getting closer 111 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: to plane, although his pride to maybe get a little 112 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: limited this week. Randy Gregory seems like he is good 113 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: to go. As far as health concerns and as far 114 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: as the whole suspension thing or drug thing, I think 115 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: that's still in the air. I think you got it flopped, 116 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: which I thought he was good injury wise, and we'll 117 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: see as alway, especially when you're talking about a concussion, 118 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: we'll see that. Jason Garrett said he's feeling better, but 119 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: I guess I gathered that from that and then seeing 120 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: Randy tweet about it saying he was good. But then 121 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: I guess you can't hold waste. Well, the way that 122 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: goes now. Back in the day, if the player felt 123 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: great and he saw that you had two fingers in 124 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: front of him, and then it was like all right, yeah, good. 125 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: But now there's a whole protocol they have to go 126 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: through and and in a lot of instances, the doctor 127 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: is going to be the final person to make that determination, 128 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: regardless of what the player is I guess saying now, 129 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: they could probably say they're feeling off fine and give 130 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: them a great report, but yeah, I would assume the 131 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: test that the doctors do will give him a little 132 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: bit more indication and they'll have to pass that protocol 133 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: in order to get back on the field. But I 134 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: do like what you said there with up in the 135 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: air with the with the league talk, because Jerry Jones 136 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: did go on the radio today and say, you know, 137 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: as far as I know, everything's good, we're all in 138 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: the clear. And that's that's noteworthy. I mean, I mean, 139 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: if Jerry Jones is going to have a better idea 140 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: than we do about what's going on with that, at 141 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: the same time, I'm always I'm taking that with a 142 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: grain of salt basically until the end of time, Like 143 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: that's just the story with Randy Gregory is that I 144 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: don't know that it's I mean, you're never You're never 145 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: just gonna feel great about that, you know what I mean. 146 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: Although I do think it's not worthy that Jerry said, 147 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: as from a league standpoint, he expects him to be 148 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: available Sunday, which is that's news. So but you know, 149 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: Jerry's been saying since training camp that and I think 150 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: people kind of just kind of took it as a 151 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: grain of salt. But he said, Hey, when you're talking 152 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,559 Speaker 1: about these kind of situations where guys, guys are coming 153 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: back from you know, drug rehabilitation, it is a process 154 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: that is not a okay, you're you're now go. It's 155 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: not like a broken bone, like There's gonna be times 156 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: when there may be hiccups, and so as long as 157 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: you know you have the right people around them and 158 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: you're giving them the right support and they're able to 159 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: work through whatever hiccups may happen, I think that ultimately, 160 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: I think if the league is being smart, they will 161 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: factor that in. And that's why they should have medical 162 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: people involved in this so that they can help when 163 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: there is a hiccup, get them immediate help and get 164 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: them back on the right track, because don't I think 165 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: it's foolish to assume that a person that's been addicted 166 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 1: to any kind of substance is just going to at 167 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: some point be whole. Right, It just doesn't happen like that. 168 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: You hear anybody that's been addicted alcohol, drugs, whatever, they'll 169 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,719 Speaker 1: tell you like, this is a this is a lifelong thing. 170 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: Now I gotta deal with this for the rest of 171 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 1: my life because it's now part of my life, right 172 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: which as a member of the media, this whole thing 173 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: with Randy makes me feel a lot of different types 174 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: of ways because I understand the value of reporting, and 175 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: if something's going on that ain't right, like that's the 176 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: media's job, whether it's sports or politics, whatever, there's nothing 177 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: wrong with that. At the same time, this Randy thing 178 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: is really sketchy because basically, anybody in Randy's situation is 179 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: gonna be having There's gonna be a million things going 180 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: on with him, probably for the rest of his career. 181 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: I mean, you're gonna be you're gonna be getting tested 182 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: maybe randomly, You're gonna be having dialogues, You're gonna have 183 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: to be going to meetings with the league, like he 184 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: did a couple weeks ago. That's probably got accountability people 185 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: you're dealing with. As yet, there's just gonna be stuff 186 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: swirling with him, like that's just that's just part of 187 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: his life basically, and it sucks for him. And it 188 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 1: seems really unfair that, you know, whether it's leaks or 189 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: whether it's reporters not being completely responsible, not pointing fingers 190 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: anybody specifically, but just the basic idea of who he 191 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: is and who he plays for. There's people trying to 192 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: pry into that. And I think about it from a 193 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: fans of mindset is like you want it to be 194 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: black or white, like is he good to go and 195 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: I don't have to worry about this or is he suspended? 196 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 1: And its not gonna be that way. And I just think, 197 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: to quote Jerry, you gotta have some tolerance for ambiguity 198 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: with that, and it just sucks you in tolerance for ambiguity, 199 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: you have to have a tolerance for ambiguity that this 200 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: You're probably always gonna have to have some level of 201 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: concern about Randy Gregory. But it sucks for him that 202 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: his dirty laundry, so to speak, is being leaked out 203 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: into the media. In one form or fashion, and it's 204 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: just unfortunate. But you know, for the time being, sounds 205 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 1: like he is okay. Yeah, right, so every week is 206 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: gonna be kind of a pending status for him. But 207 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: from what I'm gathering as of right now, it seems 208 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: that it's nothing major and it should be okay. Now, 209 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: there was a comment that I thought was really interesting 210 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: from part of Jerry Jones and yesterday we talked a 211 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 1: lot about Dak Prescott and yes, and this morning he 212 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: made a comment that he saw in Dak a mixture 213 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: of Jared Goff and Canton. So I wanted to see 214 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: what y'all's opinion was on that. Yeah, I know, I 215 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: got a lot to say, just I don't know where 216 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: to start so much to say, uh you know, I mean, 217 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: I can hear the smart Alec comments about you know, 218 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: Dak's Dak's not accurate, Jeric Goff. Last night, he didn't 219 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: have a great night throwing the ball by any stretch 220 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 1: of the imagination. I think he was about fifty percent 221 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: so and look, I've seen the tape. I know Dak 222 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,599 Speaker 1: missed a lot of throws. I'm not giving him a 223 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 1: pass for that, um, But so yeah, I agree it 224 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: would agree. We know Dak can complete and acceptable percentage 225 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,559 Speaker 1: of passes he and he did on Sunday, although not 226 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: the ones that mattered. The thing for me what jumps 227 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: out to me with that is if Dak has even 228 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: augh iota of the mobility and running ability as Cam 229 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: Newton does, where was it? Well? My question would also be, 230 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: if he does have some of that, then why the 231 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: heck isn't this offensive staff figuring out a way to 232 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: have more calls mind for him to run the ball. 233 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: It's painfully obvious that Cam's ability to run was a 234 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: big part of Carolina's game plan, and they knew that 235 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: they were going to lean on him to do that 236 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: to get past the Stallas defense. Happened with Dak And 237 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: if they know that, and I would hope that they do, 238 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: then that's borderline inexcusable for me that they didn't try 239 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 1: to implement that a little bit more. I don't really 240 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 1: see any kind of cross comparisons between the two. I mean, 241 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: I don't. I think Goff's a different type of player. 242 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: I think Cam is a different type of player. And 243 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: what Jerry wants Dad to be riding between both of them, 244 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't see either of that. What Cam 245 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 1: does best Dad didn't show, as Dave just said, and 246 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: what Goff does best, Dad didn't show and really doesn't 247 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: show that hardly at all. So I think that's the 248 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: ideal to be that type that would be your prototype quarterback, 249 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: if you could be a combination with two guys. Don't 250 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: know what that was. But but can't you Okay, everybody, okay, um, 251 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: but no, I just think overall, I mean, that's the goal, 252 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: and I think he was really far from it. But 253 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 1: you know, this is the biggest issue this team has, 254 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: I think right now, it's just trying to figure out 255 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: is their quarterback good enough to win games? Yeah, I 256 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: will say this, and Dave you kind of alluded to it. 257 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: We went back yesterday and I know I went and 258 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: sat down with Brian to watch a little bit of 259 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: what Dak did in this game, and Nicky came over 260 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: saw some of it as well. There was some significant 261 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: missus in that game. There were some opportunities and you 262 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: want to talk about these wide receivers. Let's not talk 263 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: about the wide receivers right now. And the reason why 264 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: I say that is because there were plenty of opportunities 265 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: in that game. Tight ends included where they had opened 266 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: They had open guys downfield opportunities in one instance with 267 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: Jeff Swain where it was clearly a touchdown and Dak 268 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: for whatever reason wasn't able to get them the ball, 269 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: whether he didn't see it, whether he just didn't pull 270 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: the trigger, whatever the case might have been. But they 271 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: had some opportunities that were left on the table yesterday 272 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: because of Dak's inability to get the ball to them. 273 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: And so I don't want to talk about receivers and 274 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: wide receiver and tight ends for the until we see 275 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: Dak improved there. Then I don't think it's fair to 276 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: criticize this receiving group as we have in the past. 277 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: There were more than enough open men. The Jeff swam 278 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: very obvious touchdown comes to mind. How about and hey, 279 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: if you even if you're gonna say, all right, Dak's 280 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: not a great downfield thrower, don't put that on him. Okay, 281 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: how about the Michael Gallup crossing route seven yards past 282 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, where he had guys down field, 283 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: he had green grass in front of him. It's probably 284 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: at least a twenty five yard if not more game. 285 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: If he just at full speed. It just put it 286 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: where it needs to be instead of two yards behind him. 287 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: Just not a great day at all. The play that 288 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: we're referring to with the Jeff swam he actually pulled 289 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: the ball downs third and nine and it was he 290 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: had to have the play and he ended up rushing 291 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: for ten or a great and did a nice job. 292 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: But I think what needs to be addressed there in 293 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: the film room or whatever is did you see him 294 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: and it looks like he is seeing him? Because what 295 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: is he looking at? It looks like he's seeing him. 296 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if he thinks he can make the 297 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: throw because we see it from up Todd like there 298 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: he is make the throw, but there's a certain type 299 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: of velocity you've got to put on that ball to 300 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: get it there. Yeah, he could, He could get the 301 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: ball to Swain, But is every safety in the league 302 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: gonna run over there and get it by that? Does 303 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: that worry you if he can't make that yet, If 304 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: he can't make the throw, he doesn't need to be 305 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: in the position. And I'm being honest, like that throw 306 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: out there, if it comes down to he really doesn't 307 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: trust himself. That's the job of you're not only all 308 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: you do. I mean, your job is not only to 309 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: hand off the ball to a runner. Your job as 310 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: a quarterback is to throw the ball right. But I'm 311 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: talking about making all of the throws. And yes, if 312 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: nobody's around, everybody can make that throw. It might hit 313 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: a cloud, but you're gonna get it there. He's got 314 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: to get it there on a dime and split a safety. 315 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: That might be but I guess, but I guess that's 316 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: part of the game. I'm just saying, this is what 317 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: we're finding out. Maybe he it's those type of throws 318 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: that you determine you really can't do this job. But 319 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: that's why I think, personally, I think that's not the 320 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: issue because I tend to believe he can make that throw. 321 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: I tend to believe that it was more of a 322 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: situation where he didn't recognize it as it was or 323 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: he felt something was he was he skittish about the pressure? 324 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: Was it? I mean, there was nobody really on him 325 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: at that point, But was he skittish about the pressure 326 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: to where he was like, I'm gonna have to really 327 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: step into this throw. I don't think I can have 328 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: enough time to do that. And that's why, you know, 329 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: he kind of ends up taking off running. I don't 330 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: know what it was. I don't Maybe I'm just giving 331 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: him the benefit of doubt that he can make that throw, 332 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: because that's that's a that's not a tough throw where 333 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: you got a tight end basically around the hash marks 334 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: about twenty five thirty yards downfield. This was after he 335 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: shorted the throw to Jarwin, right yet, So man, Well, 336 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: but I just I will say this, and Brian point 337 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 1: pointed this out on this situation with Jarwin Byron. I mean, 338 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: Brian thinks that what happened there was Dak was expecting 339 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: him to stop, and he kind of kept floating. And 340 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: if you notice, as he was running, he stopped running 341 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 1: full speed. Jarwin did and he was kind of just 342 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: jogging a little bit and then kind of went a 343 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 1: little bit too far. So he thinks there was kind 344 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: of a miscommunication there on what Dak was saying. Not 345 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: that Dak couldn't get it to him, but Dak thought 346 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: he was gonna stop, and he actually just kept floating backwards. Um, 347 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: and that's what made the ball short. That's fine, it 348 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: didn't I mean, it wasn't complete, that's all. I know, 349 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: but and that's what y'all have been talking about, is 350 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: why I said what I says, like, Okay, you don't 351 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: trust yourself to make that throw, which an NFL quarterback 352 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: should be able to make. But let's just even let's 353 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: even just allow acknowledge that, Okay, you can't make that throw, 354 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: make five or six pretty easy ones and the game 355 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: is still probably different. Then there were quite a few. 356 00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: I know there are five or six. There were about 357 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 1: five or six plays at me and Brian walked through. 358 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: He had another one. He had an opportunity to get 359 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: the ball to a guy and he just he missed 360 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: it for whatever reason. I just wonder if he's seeing ghosts. 361 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,640 Speaker 1: Do you think last year from we got six six 362 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: acts this game from from last year from this year 363 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: from you know, does he trust Joe Luni and Conn Williams. 364 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 1: Does he trust Lyle Collins? Does he trust is he 365 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: to pick up his blitz? I don't know. But again, 366 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: I know every game we play, we get further away 367 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: from twenty sixteen. I understand that, but we still to 368 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: quote Jerry again like we've seen him do these things, 369 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: like he's made those types of throws in the past. 370 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 1: He has and that's what makes it even harder for 371 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: me to understand like where it went. And to me, 372 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: that comes back to that says confidence to me, or 373 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: confidence that he can make the throw, or confidence that 374 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: he's you know, is he worried about if he throws picks? 375 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: You know? Maybe is the contract in his head is 376 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. Me and Nick were 377 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: talking about that the game Sunday on another subject, but 378 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: it was the whole idea of when you're when you're 379 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: young and you you don't have much, then you're willing 380 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: to go all out because you don't really you're not 381 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,719 Speaker 1: worried about losing anything, right, because you don't have anything 382 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,199 Speaker 1: to lose. That could be a rookie player, right. But 383 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: then you get a few years in and now you've 384 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: got elect you got something built, you got a little 385 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: something built, and now you're trying to hold on. And 386 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: when you're trying to hold on, you get a lot 387 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: more conservative. And we all do it in our everyday lives. 388 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: Think about how carefree you were when you were in 389 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: your early twenties relative to how you may be when 390 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: you're in your forties and you've got a wife and kids, 391 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: you gotta support, like your chance, your ability, or your 392 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: ability to take chances, or your your willingness to take 393 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: chances decreases quite a bit. And so it could be 394 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: the same thing with a player like Dak where the 395 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: most after you got that success of twenty sixteen, now 396 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: he may not be maybe a little bit more tentative 397 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: because he's like, I gotta make sure I make the 398 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: right decision because I've got something I'm building here and 399 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 1: I don't want to lose what I have. You know, 400 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: all right, Well, let's take our first break and when 401 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: we come back to Cowboys do have to face the 402 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: New York Giants this weekend, So we'll get into the 403 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 1: giants offense when we come back.

Back to the break, all right. 444 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: One of our biggest topic every single show since we 445 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: got started this season, since training camp has been the 446 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: safety position. We've talked about it every single show. Now 447 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: to our surprise, I would say that was one of 448 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 1: the least things you noticed on a negative side watching 449 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: this last game, this first game of the Cowboys, So 450 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: I could say it's one of the positives. Yeah, exactly exactly, 451 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: But when gave you say it was one of the 452 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: positives with an asterisk that they got beat well, given 453 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: the fact that you expected, okay, you have these expectations 454 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: for the offense and stuff like that, and then it 455 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: turns out that right, it was very similar to practice 456 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: with the fact that and I even said this several times, 457 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: like this offense isn't going to be testing these safeties 458 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: up and down the field to be like, wow, you know, 459 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: great job. And I don't think Carolina tested the same 460 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 1: tis vertically down the field where I mean, were these 461 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: guys could have a chance to make make a lot 462 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: of plays good or bad. So it'll get tougher for 463 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 1: Heath and Frasier than this game. But it certainly was 464 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: a good start, and Frasier did a nice job of 465 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: when he was around the ball, he did a nice job. 466 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: But were they not tested a few times from the 467 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 1: standpoint of the running game with McCaffrey getting loose and 468 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: they had to get him, like none of those turned 469 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: into touchdowns, those those plays where Cam got loose, plays 470 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: where McCaffrey got loose, I think from the standpoint of 471 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,479 Speaker 1: just how they played overall, yeah, like yeah, you're right, 472 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: they didn't get tested back downfield and patting the passing 473 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: game because that's not the offense of the Carolina Panthers. 474 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,679 Speaker 1: But they certainly got tested in the running game, I thought, right, 475 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying the running game and the short 476 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: passing game with McCaffrey, you'll be tested even more if 477 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: you're having to play you know, way back like in 478 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: Rowan Oak. You know, when you're trying to play you know, 479 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: when they get to Arlington. Seriously, Carolina, you've be way 480 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: back there. I don't know Winston Salem. I didn't have 481 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 1: a good one for way back in Charlotte. I thought 482 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: Roan was good. Yeah, you're way got the picture, and 483 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, anybody's running. But you will 484 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: play Washington and have you know Thompson that the guy, 485 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: yea Chris Thomps, Thompson, I mean somebody like that. So 486 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: when they and they do have some some little bit 487 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 1: more vertical passing game, But overall, I thought they played well. 488 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: My point though, I'm not one hundred percent sure Woods 489 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: comes back. I mean I don't think Woods start Woods 490 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: was a given starter when we got into the season. Sorry, 491 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: before getting into the season, now, being watching the way 492 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: that Cavon played this in this game, are you guys 493 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: voting for him just to automatically just keep an in there. 494 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be really aggravated if Xavier Woods isn't the 495 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 1: starter when he comes back, because if Cavon freight and 496 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: they're like, oh, he's really more of a box safety, 497 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: but he played well so he can do the job. Well, 498 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,199 Speaker 1: then how come Tyron Matthew's not here or any of 499 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: these other guys. If it's as interchangeable as it's as 500 00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 1: that suggests, then why didn't you do anything before? So 501 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: because the excuse we always are was that's not our 502 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: kind of safety that I hope if it's a column 503 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: if Xavier Woods, if he comes back and they go 504 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 1: with that guy, that's ridiculous. So you're challenging guys. It's 505 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: against Cavon at all. I mea culpa, Cavon, I assume 506 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: you don't listen to the show, but maybe he does. 507 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 1: I doubt it. I've been talking. I mean, I don't. 508 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: We haven't been talking bad, but we've been doubting you 509 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: for months. And I thought he played great. I really 510 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: did for a guy making you know, uh, for a 511 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: guy making his first start. I thought he was really good. 512 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: But Xavier Woods is the free safety with the skill 513 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: set that nobody else has. And so if you just 514 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: automatically pull the plug on that because he missed a 515 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: game or two, that tells me that that was a 516 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 1: crock of crap. So yeah, I hope these other all 517 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 1: these other safeties that weren't scheme fits and all that stuff. Now, 518 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: let me change this up a little bit. Let's say 519 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: I think that our perspective change because there were so 520 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: much negative things coming from the office. Now, had the 521 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: offense played well enough and the offense was moving, now 522 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: you start pinpointing things that stand out more the way 523 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 1: that he played, would it be good enough to where 524 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: you would have still being like, okay, Kevin's good there, 525 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: I think. So I didn't see I didn't see plays 526 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: where Cavon missed his assignment. I didn't see plays where 527 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: Cavon miss tackles. I didn't see plays where Cavon had 528 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: a bad angle, Like I didn't see that. Maybe it 529 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 1: was there and I missed it. I didn't see that. 530 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: So I think he played well. I thought overall the 531 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: safeties played pretty well. Heath had a chance to get 532 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: an interception, it would have been a great play, but 533 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: he had a chance saved a touchdown. Um you don't. Yeah, 534 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 1: I mean he's always around the ball, but you know, 535 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta come up with that play. He 536 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: I thought he played pretty well other than that, but um, 537 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: I thought, you know, the safety were good. They'll be 538 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 1: tested more than they'll be tested this week. Oh yeah, 539 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: more than that time. Oh yeah, because they have a 540 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: runner that you can catch the ball out of the backfield, 541 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: and they've got receiving threats that can go down the field, 542 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 1: and their runner is going to get to the safety 543 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: a few times. Yeah, he'll get there. I got a 544 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: feeling he's going to get to the safety a few times. 545 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 1: And he's big. Yeah, he's a big dude and he 546 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: can run. Yeah. So tomorrow we'll we'll get it deep 547 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: into the Giants Tomorrow. I want Dave to tell me 548 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: whether he thinks after he reviews this team. I want 549 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: him to tell me if he thinks that the runner 550 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: in New York is better than the runner in Dallas. 551 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: I want to know I've already gotten it. Wait, save 552 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: until tomorrow. I've already gotten a john like I'm I 553 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: have started. So I'll let you know teaser times you 554 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: studied him in college soup with the draft shows. I 555 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: just want to I just want to know, like, do 556 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: you think which one you think is? We can get 557 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,880 Speaker 1: into that, but after after having watched the first I've 558 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 1: watched the first half of the season opener, Giants and 559 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: Jacks way more worried about the guys out wide than 560 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: the guy in the ball really yes, well, yes, his 561 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 1: big run came later though, right. Yeah, I hope that 562 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,959 Speaker 1: Zeke is is better at running back because if not, 563 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: and if you're just doing that, you know, checks on 564 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: each side offensive line, Cowboys, running back. I hope it's 565 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: Cowboys right now with Zeke at Barkley Ride receiver, it 566 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: is You're not about to win. The next two is 567 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: not tied end and it's not quarterback. I don't care 568 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: what people just kind of face them Ali man, I 569 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: think it's a push at quarterback. I personally think it's 570 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: a push. I don't know how you can say that 571 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: watching how Eli played last season and how he played 572 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: better than one of them is going to go to 573 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. I know that. I'm saying, how 574 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: can anyone say Dak is better than Eli? Oh? Oh, 575 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm I've just understood you. I thought you were saying 576 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: Dak is better than I think you're both playing. Neither 577 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: one of them is playing. I'm sorry if I said that. 578 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: I'm sorry that Dak is not. He was two years 579 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: ago rookie year looked like, you know, Arrow was going 580 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 1: this way, But no, he's he's not. About two years ago, 581 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: he was playing out a pretty high light. Giants should 582 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: be last year. The Cowboys should be more worried about 583 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: what Eli can do than what that can do. Um, 584 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: definitely throwing the ball. Yeah, I don't know. I think 585 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 1: they got to be worried about what those receivers can do, 586 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: and that that's in some respect has to do with 587 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: the quarterback. But I also think he can get the 588 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: ball out quick, and those receivers can turn a little 589 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: bit into a ton, right, So that's the part I'm 590 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: more worried about, is that receiver. Well, you're stealing my thunder, 591 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: so it's fine. Thanks for bringing it up. Well, both 592 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: teams are oh and one right now, and if you 593 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: were talking yesterday about how important these early games can 594 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: matter when he comes down to later in the season. 595 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: Now both teams and the Cowboys playing at home I 596 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: believe they've maybe beat the Giants the last like four times. 597 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: I think they haven't lost them. Well, they lost to 598 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: him at home in twenty sixteen, and they beat him 599 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: last year, and they beat him in fifteen, and they 600 00:29:54,440 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: beat him in fourteen. But what I'm getting and it's 601 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: like at this point, this whole home field advantage that 602 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: people like to bring up, I don't think that's a 603 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: factor right now with what you have in the NFL 604 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: home field. There's probably two or three stadiums, in my opinion, 605 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: where home field really matters. In my opinion, I think 606 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,239 Speaker 1: by and large in the NFL, it's you get out 607 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: there on the field and it's these teams are very 608 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: adept at being able to be able to operate their 609 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: offense and their defense even when there's noise coming from 610 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: the crowd. You look at some of the upsets this 611 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: last weekend, there was some pretty good home teams that 612 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: got beat So I just I don't believe home fiel 613 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: advantage is it's a huge a deal in this particular sport, 614 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: as it may be another like basketball, I think it's 615 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,479 Speaker 1: a huge deal. I don't think so on football. I'm 616 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: conflicted about that. I think the thing with home field advantages, 617 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: I mean, and you're right. I mean the Saints jump 618 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: right out to me, that is a nice home field 619 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: advantage that was good for nothing on Sunday. Yeah, and 620 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: that's one of the places I would have said and 621 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: the home field advantage actually matter. There were a couple 622 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: of others, But I do think home field advantage is 623 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: in poor but I think it's I think home field 624 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: advantage is what makes things go from bad to worse. 625 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: Like if you're you know, Cowboys, case in point, like 626 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: maybe they play a little bit better at at and 627 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: T Stadium. They might not win the game, but it 628 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: might not be that bad. And you know, the Seahawks 629 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: are the same way. I think when you get a 630 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: good thing role in that crowd helps, you know, like 631 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: it keeps the other team off their game. And but yeah, 632 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: for the most part, I don't think you're going to 633 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: lose a game because of home field advantage. I think 634 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: you can lose a game worse than you should because 635 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: of home field advantage. So right now, at this point, 636 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: we've gotten a chance to watch every team play and 637 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: get a feel of what it is like at this point, 638 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: and based on the results that we saw this whole weekend, 639 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: a lot of ugly games, a lot of disappointment happening 640 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: around the league. I would say, but at this point, 641 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: where do you think the Cowboys stand versus all the 642 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: other teams in the league power rankings? They would be 643 00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 1: in the low twenty, twenty three, twenty four. I think 644 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: they definitely did not put up the worst game of 645 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: the weekend, right, but they are in the running and 646 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: put it that way. I mean, and nobody should feel 647 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: worse than the Detroit Lions today, in my opinion, given 648 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: up fifty at home to a rookie quarterback. Five picks 649 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: from your franchise guy, who I've been a big defender 650 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: of Nick doesn't like him. Maybe he's right because that 651 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: was terrible. Matthew Stafford, who I'm talking about the Saints 652 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,959 Speaker 1: again to bring them up. I mean, ten point favorites 653 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: have not. Here's the I don't think that the Saints 654 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: can look at that game and be like so worried 655 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: because they did they still did put up forty points 656 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: and so offensively they got to feel like, hey, number one, 657 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: we got to tighten up some stuff defensively, and you know, 658 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: we just got to figure out some things I don't 659 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: think they worry as much as like the Cowboys. You 660 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 1: look at the Cowboys, and the reason why I said 661 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: they're probably mid to low twenties is because if you 662 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: go back and look at the problems they've had over 663 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: the last span of games, not just one game, but 664 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: span of games, you start to wonder, is this offense 665 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: gonna find his mojo? And if you can't score points. 666 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: You said this yesterday, If you can't score points, you're 667 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: not gonna win games. Unless you've got a historically great defense, 668 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: the thing not going to win games. And that's the 669 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: part that probably worries the Cowboys more than any other 670 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: franchise right now. There are probably a few other teams 671 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: that are in that boat, but there are a lot 672 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: of teams to score points. This week that lost. Cowboys 673 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: weren't one of them. They lost and didn't score anything. 674 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: One more. I will eats. I will stop bringing up 675 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints for the day after I'm done 676 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: with this. But I think it's pertinent because the stat 677 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: that's floating around right there is if you start owing 678 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: to you know what, like eighty ninety percent of teams 679 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 1: that do that don't make the playoffs. Well the Saints. Well, 680 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: it sounds like I'm defending the Cowboys. The Saints started 681 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: in two last year and made the playoffs. At the 682 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: problem is what the Saints have. They had the offensive 683 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: rookie of the year, their whole I mean, their draft class. 684 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: It rivals the twenty sixteen Cowboys in terms of draft 685 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: class making an impact, and Drew Brees, who was going 686 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame, played the most efficient season 687 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,040 Speaker 1: of his career. Did you see anything on Sunday that 688 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 1: gives you confidence that the Cowboys can can engineer a 689 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: turnaround like that? And yeah, I honestly don't know what 690 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,920 Speaker 1: because I can't remember back to what New Orleans, not 691 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: that I even watch those games. What New Orleans did 692 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: in those two losses. How did they perform? Like did 693 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: they look as bad as the Cowboys offensive? I can 694 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 1: tell you right now that they probably didn't enter the 695 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: season just thinking that Kamara was going to be the 696 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: guy that they have to just lean on or you know, 697 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: profile him that much in the offense. He had done 698 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: some nice things. He has an expanded role. Next thing, 699 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: you know, he is one of the more dynamic players 700 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 1: in this league. So then the question becomes were there 701 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 1: guys yesterday? Did we see things from guys yesterday that 702 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: maybe could give you a reason to believe? I'm sorry, Sunday, 703 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: that maybe gives you a reason to believe. Like, let's say, 704 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: for example, did you see anything from wide receivers and 705 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: tight ends. It makes you say, hey, if this quarterback 706 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: figures out how to get the ball to the right 707 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: place at the right time, you got some some different 708 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: options in the right there. Okay, I like your questions, 709 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: but you guys can answer you when we come back 710 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,279 Speaker 1: from this final break. Okay.

Picking number one in the draft 750 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 1: is a good thing, but picking your weggies is a 751 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: bad piece. So never pick again. I didn't say I'm 752 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 1: talking about last night.

No, the Cowboys won't be picking number 758 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: one in the draft and suck you don't want. Okay, 759 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:41,439 Speaker 1: but before Miles comes back, um, I think that right? Yeah, 760 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: I think this is a pretty big game though, for 761 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: a lot of reasons. One of them is you need 762 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: to decide kind of where you're going to go if 763 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, if there is a trade that they still 764 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,360 Speaker 1: want to make, If you're O and two and you 765 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: lost to the Giants, it changes the course of things 766 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: a little bit now out. I mean, because it's like, 767 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 1: what type of team are you going to have if 768 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 1: this is a if you're going to bring a player 769 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: in that might help you and kind of get over 770 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: the top and fit, you know, fill a hole, that's fine. 771 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 1: But if not, then I mean, I don't know when 772 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: your defense can't do all the work. I honestly believe though, 773 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,919 Speaker 1: that that's the kind of decision that I make after 774 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 1: three or four games. I don't think after two. I 775 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: know what the statistics say, but I'm I still and 776 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 1: again maybe this is just my own personal optimism. I 777 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: don't believe after two games in a sixteen game season, 778 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: anything is determined. So okay, mister optimistic, Yeah, before we 779 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 1: went into break, you post the question of did you 780 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 1: see anything from this team that offensively Yes? Yes, that 781 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:47,839 Speaker 1: will make you feel better going or moving forward into 782 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: the season. Yes, And my answer your own the way 783 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 1: I would answer that question is yes, I did not 784 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,800 Speaker 1: expect that the wide receivers and tight ends would be 785 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: open as much as they were until after the game. 786 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm standing there in the locker room, Cole Beasley is 787 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: talking to the media and says, go back and watch 788 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: the film. You will see that wide receivers were open. 789 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: It made my eyebrow go up because I was like, Wow, 790 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: did he just say that? And then I went back 791 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: and I talked to Brian first because I didn't have 792 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,320 Speaker 1: a chance to watch watch it before he went on 793 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: the air yesterday, and he was like, he's absolutely correct. 794 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: And then after the show I went back and watched 795 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: it and he was absolutely correct. There were wide receivers 796 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: and tight ends open throughout that game. And so that 797 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: gives me, like, personally makes me think, Okay, this is 798 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: not a bigger problem, and it makes me think that 799 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: although I do think I do think offensively they probably 800 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 1: could have done more to create more diversity in the offense. 801 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: It does make me think that even without that, they 802 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: had opportunities. There were plays where they got guys open, 803 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: they schemed guys open on plays and for whatever reason, 804 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: they didn't get the ball. So all I'm saying is 805 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: that does make me feel better. It still means your 806 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: quarterback's gotta be good enough to do it, and we 807 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 1: have to see if he can do that consistent And 808 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 1: and this is one of my biggest pet peeves. I 809 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,480 Speaker 1: always hate it when people just they start off blaming 810 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 1: the quarterback every time when a guy is open every time, 811 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 1: like it's like, well, day's open. But it's like, why 812 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 1: didn't you get him the ball? I mean, you don't 813 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 1: see all the time. You can't see he was running 814 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:20,479 Speaker 1: for his life. You said, for whatever reason it didn't 815 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 1: get the ball. The reason was that the line couldn't 816 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,839 Speaker 1: block him at all. Well, but there was I don't 817 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: think that's the case. I don't think you can say 818 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 1: that every time either, because there were some times when 819 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: he had time, He had plenty of time. There was 820 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 1: nobody within three yards of him, so time, Okay, I 821 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 1: got it, missed, he missed Gallup and met Gallup should 822 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: have made the catch. But he missed Gallup. Gallup should 823 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: have made that catch, though he dropped the ball. I mean, 824 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 1: that's one of the slick conditions. I don't know, maybe 825 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: maybe not, No, he should have made the catch, but 826 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: the way it was thrown, it wasn't going to be 827 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: the game then it right could have been a big game. 828 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 1: And that's what I think receivers do, and I think 829 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,880 Speaker 1: selfish receivers do this. I'm not calling him that, but 830 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: selfish receivers sometimes will do a crossing route. They want 831 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 1: that ball right there, like they're Jerry Rice, so they 832 00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: can go fifty yards with it, which it could have 833 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 1: been a forty fifty yard. That wasn't the case. He 834 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 1: should have stopped completely make the catch and it might 835 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 1: have only been ten twelve yards, but still, you know, 836 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: you have to do that. But that was a horrible throw. 837 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: All I'm saying is is that he was sacked six times. 838 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: If Dak wasn't as big and strong and agile as 839 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 1: he is, it could have been ten. It could have 840 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: been more than that, you know. I mean, Eli Manning 841 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: probably would well, he would have get the ball out 842 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 1: a lot quicker, you know, than that he hadn't taken six, right, 843 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: but he's not taken six. But all I'm saying is 844 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 1: is that they this offensive line. That's where the issue 845 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,879 Speaker 1: was was was the line. So the receiver's getting open 846 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,839 Speaker 1: is a good positive thing. Can they get it blocked. Yeah, 847 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,719 Speaker 1: and I think that the here's the deal. You can 848 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: look at the offensive line. You can say you have 849 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 1: offensive line has some problems. But I think it was 850 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,320 Speaker 1: you or Dave that was telling me yesterday when you 851 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 1: go back and look at it, the rookie actually only 852 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 1: had a few bad plays, right. I know two of 853 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: them turned into sacks, but it was only two or 854 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 1: three where he really had bad plays. That's what can 855 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 1: happen with an offensive line. Two plays can turn into 856 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 1: two sacks, and that means a horrible day when the 857 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 1: fact of the matter is it wasn't as bad as 858 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 1: it may have may have sounded, or may have even 859 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: looked on the field, especially when you're going up against 860 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: a guy like going short. I'm not worried about any 861 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 1: of this. Like the receivers were more open than they 862 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 1: got credit for. Dak had a bad day. I'm not 863 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 1: ready to just abandon all confidence that I had in Dak. 864 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 1: Like I think that's gonna be fine. Can and I 865 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: said this yesterday, but like can Ezekiel Elliott just be 866 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: part the part the part of this offense that he 867 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: needs to be. Like, I mean, did I know you 868 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: did we talked about it already Todd Gurley, which honestly, 869 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 1: like his numbers aren't that much different than what Zeke did. 870 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: Todd got targeted five game, five times in the game 871 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 1: last night, but it was how he was targeted. You know, 872 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 1: they were throwing wheel routes to him down field. He 873 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 1: had he scored a touchdown on a pop pass, which 874 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: is literally like a jet sweep. He goes in motion 875 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 1: and you just flick him the ball and yeah, no, seriously, 876 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 1: he only had twenty carries. He I mean, and they 877 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: diced the Rams defense up. I'm you know, that's a 878 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: different story. I don't want to compare defenses because I 879 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: don't know enough about them. Sorry, but that's that is 880 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 1: what's going to need to happen for the Cowboys offense 881 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: to be successful, is for Ezekiel Elliott to be the 882 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: star of the show and in a variety of ways, 883 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 1: and we didn't see it Sunday. Part of that is 884 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,959 Speaker 1: the defense your plan. Again, it's not time to close 885 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: the book, but it's got to be better. But I 886 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:21,800 Speaker 1: mean that's also a part of if you got a 887 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: stud player, you got to feed him, and I don't 888 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 1: feel like they fed him in different ways, like whether 889 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 1: it's in the passing game like you say yesterday, I'd 890 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 1: love to see them runs that Texas route more frequently. 891 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 1: I think that is an indefensible route unless you're gonna 892 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: zone them, unless you're gonna play zone, which then creates 893 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 1: a lot of other opportunities for you. It is hard 894 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: for for a got to keep up in. What I 895 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 1: mean by Texas route basically, you flare out and then 896 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: you come back in, you get back into the middle. 897 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 1: It's almost impossible to cover that man to man for 898 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: most linebackers or most safeties because of the nature of 899 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: the route. And I just think they ought to use 900 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: it more when talking about what they should use a 901 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,320 Speaker 1: little bit more, When did this team just decide that 902 00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: they don't need a fullback? I mean, the type of 903 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 1: offense that they want to run, why not use a fullback? 904 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 1: And I don't know if Ola wallis the smashmouth fullback 905 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: that they're that they've had in the in the path, 906 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 1: they didn't have it. He's not the same guy as 907 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: Keith Smith. But I'm saying, you know, why does Zeke 908 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 1: have to do all of the work right there? I mean, 909 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 1: it's a different mindset. You want to spread them out 910 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 1: a little bit, but they don't. It'd be one thing 911 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: if they just say, we don't want the fullback because 912 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 1: we want to spread things out. But when Terrence Williams, 913 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 1: who's got zero pancakes probably in his life. He's a 914 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: good blocker, but not to the point where you should 915 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 1: be in the line of scrimmage and blocking. I don't 916 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 1: know why we're not using more of a fullback there. Well, 917 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. Zeke is Zeke gives this offense the 918 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 1: best chance to be very successful, and you got to 919 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 1: do more with him to make that happen. In my degree, 920 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 1: I hope they listen to you. They've so see tomorrow 921 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 1: we will dissect the Giant's offense for real and we'll 922 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: figure out what happens. It's moving on forward for Nick Eedman, 923 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,840 Speaker 1: Derek Galton, David Hellman and member.
