That Cowboys are getting set to take on 6 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,919 Speaker 1: the Raiders for Sunday night football. But before we get 7 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: into all of that talk, how's everyone doing today? Good world, 8 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,520 Speaker 1: Tay doing good. Yeah, you have a good birthday. Yeah, 9 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 1: it was really good. Thank you recovered? Yeah, ready to roll, 10 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 1: ready to go. Told you like twenty five years ago 11 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 1: it had probably been a little different, but right now 12 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: we're all right, little tamer right, Yeah, that's good. Back 13 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: in the day it wasn't so much team. But hey, 14 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: you know, the coolest thing is that when he did 15 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: have a birthday four years ago, somebody gave you a 16 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: very special cake. Yeah, Sean Lee cake. That was funny. 17 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: That was nice of everybody to do that. Shaun Lee 18 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: showed up in his fifty is jersey my fiftieth birthday 19 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: with a fifty cake and so yeah, it was one 20 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: of the it's one of the great things that's ever 21 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: happened to me as far as like you talk about 22 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: surprises and stuff like that. I was just sitting down 23 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: in a desk all of a sudden Sean like, hey, 24 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: I heard it was your birthday. He had this cake 25 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: with the candles litting everything. I thought that was really cool. 26 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,479 Speaker 1: Sean Lee, what a great guy. He is a great guy. 27 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: Maybe Jalen Smith, you know, we could maybe ja Yeah, 28 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: you know, maybe not Jalen because I said they shouldn't 29 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: have drafted him. So he's probably not too happy. We've 30 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: taken that back sense that I've I've made some mistakes 31 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: in my day. Yes, Well, the Cowboys will get set 32 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: to play the Raiders this week. And before we get 33 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: into that, Rob, you know, you were in coach Garrett. 34 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: He was giving a lot of updates on some of 35 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: the injuries we'll be watching throughout the week. Yeah, it 36 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: sounds like Orlando Scanders making some progress that he would 37 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: be involved at least in some individual type stuff today 38 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: and see if he progresses from there. Doesn't sound like 39 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: David Irving will practice today, maybe do some stuff on 40 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: the side coming off the concussion. But that sounds encouraging 41 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: as well. So maybe as the week goes on, you 42 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: might see him come back as well. And by the way, 43 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: the two starting tackles, Tyran and Lyle, will not practice today. 44 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: They've been managing their workload, especially on Wednesdays. But it 45 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: sounds like Lyell will be back at practice on Thursday, 46 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: which means he's doing better with the back that has 47 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: sidelined him the last couple of weeks. Yeah, did you 48 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 1: guys get a chance to hear him on Cowboys Hour 49 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: this week with Bradsham No? I did not, Yes, Yeah, yeah, 50 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: you know, I think Lyle Collins has such a great 51 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: attitude about most things. He's a really personable guy. If 52 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: you've ever had a chance to be around him, you know, 53 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: it's just funny. They kept teasing him the whole time, 54 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: like you don't practice. Yeah, it was just pretty funny. 55 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: And yeah, obviously that hasn't been an issue, you know 56 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: in the past two games. No, it hasn't. And that's 57 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: you know, I to be honest with you. You know, 58 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: as we coach Garrett always talks about he wants this 59 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: guy's to practice, and that's first and foremost. But it 60 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: has been really unique that he's been able to miss 61 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: his much. I mean and you don't see busts, you 62 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: don't see problems with you know. And maybe that's because 63 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: Zack Martin is so good at his job that she 64 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, you kind of got a guy. 65 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: If that was somebody, a rookie player, they had a 66 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: lesser player than Zack Martin there, I think that you 67 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: would be pushing for Lyle Collins to practice, you know, 68 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: and just because you know that that with Martin, you 69 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: can get away with a lot of things over there 70 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: because he'll clean up some of your mistakes if you 71 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: have some tug rob one of your Twitter polls last week, 72 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: and I think Mickey and Brian agreed. Craig may have 73 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: been wrong, but that Lyle Collins is one of the 74 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: most improved players this season. Yeah, I think he won 75 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: the poll. He did. And when you consider what Brian 76 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: just said in terms of the quality of pass rushers 77 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: he's faced the last two weeks when he has not 78 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: been one, Ryan Kerrigan, Preston Smith, JPP, all those guys, 79 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: that's some of his toughest challenges of the season, and 80 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: he's played arguably his best. Fool. I'm glad you brought 81 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: up that David Hellman. He put together a list, he said. 82 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: Lyle Collins draws Khalil Mack this weekend in Oakland, which 83 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: is just the latest elite pass rusher he's had to face. 84 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: The list of Collins matchups features twenty three combined Pro 85 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: Bowl appearances, nine first team All Pros, and a defensive 86 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year. Of course, Jpp is on that list, 87 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: Von Miller, Connor Barwin, Claim Matthews, Ryan Carrigan, Preston Smith, 88 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: Justin Houston, Brandon Graham, Vic Beasley, Melvin Ingram, Joey Bosen. 89 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: Of course Livia Vernon last week. Yeah, welcome to right tackle. 90 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: You know, I mean, I thought that was supposed to 91 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: be the easy one. Yeah, that's what they say. Yeah, 92 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: you know, it's funny that you say that. But nowadays 93 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: teams and this is I believe the fourth game in 94 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,119 Speaker 1: a row that they've played against a team that has 95 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: two quality rush ins. That's a good point. Yeah, you know, 96 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: I mean Livier started on the Yeah, I mean opposite 97 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: him last right, you could go, you could go. I 98 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: mean people would say, okay, well what about Vick Beasley 99 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: after Atlanta? Think about all the matchups that they had 100 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: where they had two legitimate pass rushers on the end. 101 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: And you know, Bruce Servant is no slouch the for 102 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: the Raiders this week. So there's another team that will 103 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: have two guys that they can interchange. Sometimes you catch 104 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 1: a little bit of a break if they try and 105 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: flop guys around, but in this case, Bruce Servan will 106 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: go over to his side a little bit and you know, 107 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: and try and give him a couple of rushes there. 108 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: Now you mentioned Scandrick. He's out there in his pads, 109 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: so I don't know how much he's gonna do, right, 110 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: but he had his shoulder pads on. Durant had his 111 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: shoulder pads on, so you know, maybe they've just out 112 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: there to do their rehab work like they're going to practice. 113 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: But at least that's a good sign. And the other 114 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: guy was doing rehab stuff. And I know it's too late, 115 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: but Charles Tapper was out there on the chords right, 116 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: so he's been at least cleared to do that stuff, 117 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: although they told him he wouldn't be ready until another 118 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: another month. When he finally saw him back in the 119 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: locker room. Charles Tapper is another one of those I know. 120 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: I'll just spend a minute on it You're seeing so 121 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: many young guys play right now, and so many young 122 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: guys have some success. It would have been nice to 123 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: see if Charles Tapper could have been that kind of 124 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: guy too. You know, they've thrown the defensive backs out there, 125 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: you know, and asked them to play, and they, for 126 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: the most part, they've done a really nice job. It'd 127 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: been nice to see if Tapper and Taco and those 128 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: guys who who could have been maybe of those two 129 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 1: who the Taco and Tapper who had been the guy 130 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: that Hey going into twenty and eighteen, but you can 131 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: really count on this guy to be your guy. And 132 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately another injury robbed him of that. Yeah, 133 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: you know, as we talk about guys who are returning 134 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: from injuries. Obviously it was Chaun Lee's first game back 135 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: last week, and you know we've we've discussed on here 136 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: about the fact that he was taking some plays off, 137 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: you know, kind of just in caution bringing him back 138 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: in easing him back, And do you think that will 139 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: still be the plan this week? I could see that 140 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: I did he take more like a series of yeah, yeah, 141 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: it was full block planic when it happened. Yeah, And 142 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: that was a plan yeah, because when he goes out 143 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: like he went out in Atlanta, and it's like, oh, well, 144 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: he still got his helmet on because he's so that 145 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: doesn't mean with him, it doesn't mean anything. I think 146 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: he had his helmet on the whole time against Philly 147 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: last last year when he didn't play a single snap, 148 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: you know, and he knew he wasn't gonna play. So 149 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: that's a good point to you. I mean, I could 150 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: see them trying to just manage him a little bit, 151 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: give him a little break here and there, because it's 152 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: it is an injury that he's dealt with twice now 153 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: this season. I think they've allowed him to do that 154 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: because Jalen Smith's actually played better. You know, maybe that's 155 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: a little bit of a thought that, you know, what 156 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: we can give him. We have a little bit more 157 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: confidence in Jalen Smith, if you know. But you got 158 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: Hitchens who can play either side. I mean, you can 159 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: kick Hitchens out to the outside. And now that Jalen's 160 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: playing a little bit better, you know, maybe makes you 161 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: maybe makes you think, okay, we can get away with 162 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: stealing maybe a serious here or too. Maybe two Also 163 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: though they felt like the Giants, I mean even though 164 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: they had their first drive was huge and a lot 165 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: of plays, but they really struggled after that to really 166 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: kind of get anything going. So you kind of, you know, 167 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: a little bit of an opportunitist. Okay, maybe we got 168 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: him backed up. We can we can take Sean Lee 169 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: out here for a series and then get him back 170 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: in when we need to. Yeah, I suggest they take 171 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: them out when Oakland has the ball at their own 172 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: ten yard line. That you don't like that at all, 173 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: do you? But if you can find a no that's 174 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: serious right about I thought you were tongue in cheeking 175 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: it because yeah, all those guys, yeah yeah, but this time, 176 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: if they can't give them a chance to rest, then 177 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: that's where I want him resting. I don't want him 178 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: resting at the fifty yard line. Yeah. So if they 179 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: crossed the fifty and he's back in, yeah, you're you're 180 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: you never want Slee. Yeah, but but that he Mickey's right. 181 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: I think we all see that too, when those you 182 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: see like Ash and those guys go out there and 183 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, and all of a sudden, then the ball 184 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: just gets advanced to the forty two yard line and 185 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 1: you're like, well that worked out real well, and then 186 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: here it comes to the reinforced everybody, and then yeah, 187 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: then they got thirteen men on the field. I'm trying 188 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: to get guys off and on. Absolutely. Yeah. Well, Bryce Butler, 189 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: he spoke yesterday in the locker room and he's obviously 190 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: very excited to return to Oakland, his former team where 191 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: he first started his NFL career. Right, is his foot 192 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: going to be an issue moving forward or we don't 193 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: see that. It didn't sound like he was going to practice. 194 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,719 Speaker 1: He's out there in pads, but it didn't sound like 195 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: he was going to practice. Yeah, so they would probably 196 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: give him another day with that foot. You know what, 197 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: the way things worked last week and we talked about 198 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: defense and numbers and all that. I know he had 199 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: the foot, but this might be a little bit more about, 200 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: you know, we want to get some other guy. I mean, 201 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: we need defensive guys. So it might not be Bryce 202 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: Butler getting in there. And you know, we'll see tomorrow. 203 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: I mean, Mickey always makes a good point about Wednesday practice. 204 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 1: Kind of take it for what it is. Thursdays and 205 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: Fridays are the ones where you're gonna, Okay, the guy's 206 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: gonna play or not. If he's limited tomorrow, then this 207 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: might be a situation again where they just say, you know, 208 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna dress all the defensive players. We're okay with 209 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: Switzer dressing what he needs to do and then just 210 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: go to the battle that way. Yeah, Garrett said he 211 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: would do something tomorrow. Yeah, so he's just looking good today. Yeah, 212 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: and of course what we're gonna say. No, it's a 213 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: good point by them. I think Brian Noah Brown has 214 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: You've seen his snaps go up incrementally on offense even 215 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: when Bryce has been healthy. So his special team's ability 216 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: is kind of like Rod Smith. That enables him to 217 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: get to the game. And maybe, you know, you got 218 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 1: to make a decision with Bryce if he's not one 219 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: hundred percent. In a class where so many rookies are 220 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: playing and playing significant roles on the team, having starting roles, 221 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: where do you rank Noah Brown. That's a good question 222 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: because I think there's some things that Noah Brown does 223 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: on the positive side. When you really sit down and 224 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: watch the team, you watch the All twenty two, you 225 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: see him as the point of attack block or you 226 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 1: see him they try to get him the ball in 227 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: the waggle one time. You know, when they fake like 228 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: he's gonna block, and you know Mickey is right about 229 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: this too, is well, we tend to bring that guy 230 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: inside and it draws another guy in the box, and 231 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: if you're not a good enough blocker, that's a detriment. 232 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: But he is a good enough blocker. On the crack 233 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: toss they scored on the other day, it was him 234 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 1: and Jeff Swain that really set the edge. And you know, 235 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 1: you gotta be a powerful guy. You can't get driven 236 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: back in to a pulling Travis Frederick and a pulling 237 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: Tyrant Smith. So as far as is he making a 238 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: huge impact like a Woozier and Lewis and Woods, No 239 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: he's not. But is he doing everything that they've asked 240 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: him to do? Yeah, I think because his blocking has 241 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: been very good. From that aspect, he was He's found 242 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:44,719 Speaker 1: a role seven six seven. There wasn't a sish and 243 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: then they went up to go get Xavier Wood. There 244 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: you go, there you go, Hey, thanks for paying attention 245 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: to the draft. I need to do a better job. 246 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: You really, you need to get better on the draft. 247 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,199 Speaker 1: Get better on the draft. On it. Just focus on 248 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: the draft. He's played his most snaps the last two games. Yeah, 249 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: he had sixteen against Washington and twenty four or this 250 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: last game. Now, Butler was out the last game, right, Uh, 251 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: those were the two most snaps he's had since San Francisco. 252 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: Has he bothered you as being an I mean, it's okay, 253 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: I just I mean I was just always surprised that 254 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: everybody was all over this guy when they drafted him 255 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: and he was only a seventh round pick. Like this 256 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: guy was going to be the savior of the wide 257 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: receiver corps, right like that he was gonna put Bryce 258 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: Butler on the street. Yeah, he's a seventh round pick upside. Yeah, 259 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: and let's you know when he's he's made a role 260 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: for himself. More hype s more hype him? Or or Switzer? Yeah, 261 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: definitely Switzer, Yeah, Switzer. Yeah, but only because Beasley was 262 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: hurt during OTAs and Switzer got all the snaps with 263 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 1: his spot. And I think between okay, I guess my 264 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: question needs to be between Switzer and Brown, who would 265 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 1: you have thought would be in the most best contributor. Definitely, 266 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: I would say Switzer just because you were looking for 267 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: a punt returner that could do something, yeah, kick returner, 268 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: and to see him have success there. We blew smoke 269 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: up his rear. I'm guilty of that Switcher. Think you 270 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: gave him too much? Oh yeah, I gave him too much. 271 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: Because Mickey's right. We looked at the Ota stuff. We saw, hey, 272 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: look and he could do the things that he could do, 273 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: the things that U that Beasley can do so fast. 274 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: Time a slot receiver was picked in the fourth round, 275 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 1: well well they turned guy. Yeah, they were gonna see. 276 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: They were trying to draft the pump free kid from 277 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: San Diego State who led the nation in rush I 278 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: mean yards turn yeah, I mean Philadelphia went up and 279 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: got him, and so you know that was that one 280 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: kind of kicked him a little bit in the butt. 281 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: You know. They were looking for a guy that they 282 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: could be the runner, the change of pain, the guy 283 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: that Mickey Mickey talk about, Mickey Mickey's guy. Mickey Pumphrey 284 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: was the guy at San Diego State, and the Cowboys 285 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: were listening to Mickey because they saw it. They're saying, Okay, 286 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: let's get this Pumprey guy. All of a sudden, now 287 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 1: kind of word gets out, whoa hey, the Cowboys are 288 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: at these workouts. Pumphrey was a guy they were talking 289 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: to bull next thing, you know, hey, let's go up. Yeah. Yeah, 290 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: but that's that. I think that. I think that that 291 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: I and I'm I'm guilty of this. If what I 292 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: saw from Switzer Switzer's college tape at North Carolina was 293 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: not bad at all. And you're watching Mitch Mitch Trubisky 294 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: play at North Carolina, You're seeing him throw the ball 295 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,719 Speaker 1: a lot to switcher and throwing the ball down the 296 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: field more than what we've seen from um when Beasley, 297 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: So it made sense. It's like, Okay, go get this 298 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: guy that's got no fear. We've seen some really positive 299 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: things from him running the football. I mean when it's 300 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: as far as uh, as far as some of the 301 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: return stuff. Yeah, I like the fact he takes the 302 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: ball and goes forward and it might be ten yards, 303 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: it might be twenty six yards, but he's he's taking 304 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: the ball and going forward with it. I disagree with 305 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: you a little bit on Noah Brown. I don't think 306 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: anybody thought he was gonna save the wide receiver corps, 307 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: especially not this year. I don't know. We were worried. 308 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: Go ahead, No, I'm sorry, but we were worried. I 309 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: think though that Noah Brown not to your point, I 310 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: think we were thinking Noah Brown when the no umbers 311 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: we didn't know they were going to carry six receivers. Yeah, 312 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: we were trying to figure out how they were going 313 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: to get him on the team, and the obvious spot became, oh, look, 314 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: he has a similar build to Bryce Butler, and he 315 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: was gonna he was gonna put Bryce Butler on the street. 316 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: I never felt that way because we've seen Dez miss games, 317 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: and if Dez missus games, he hasn't this year. I 318 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: don't think you got Bryce who has proven he can 319 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: step in and do it. You need a veteran behind him. 320 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: But when you're in the seventh round, you know this. 321 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: I mean you're looking for traits and he's a big 322 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: bodied receiver paying attention who can get up and you know, 323 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: be physical and make plays. And I think people saw 324 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: that oh you game and thought, oh this guy's you know, 325 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: he dominated Oklahoma then and everything went downhill the next 326 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: twelve games. But for the seventh round, I think, upstand, 327 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: but I didn't think he was going to come in 328 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: and take Bryce Butler's job, and vice Butler lets you 329 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: know during training camp in preseason, you're not taking my job. 330 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: He had a really good camp. The guy, Oh he 331 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: was good. You're right about that. He's got four catches, Okay, 332 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: so his value has been teams and coming in as 333 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: a blocker when they go three or four. While you know, 334 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: it's sad now about these some first round receivers don't 335 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: have that kind of production treadwell. Yeah, well, well look 336 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: at the kid that Cincinnati took, the kid from Washington 337 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: that was that Ross did. But everyone kind of knew 338 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: that was all say, yeah, but he was an injury dude. Yeah, 339 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: he was an injury dude. But I'll tell you what 340 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: they're You know, there was a lot of receivers that 341 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: were picked in the top ten to actually two of 342 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: them that haven't had nearly. Receivers a very very difficult 343 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: position to come into and to be a contributor. I meanial, 344 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: I know people out there are going to cite guys 345 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: for me, but I'm just telling you though, that's one 346 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: of the things when you're looking at the second and 347 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: the third year of where the development really really is, 348 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: you've got to learn how to assist. What was his pick? 349 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: Obviously it was the first round guy back. He was 350 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: thirteen overall with thirteen giants. Yeah, I think I'm right 351 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: about that. Why is it a tougher adjustment than other positions. 352 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: I think what happens to these receivers is they the 353 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: route running is so it's different than in college. You know, 354 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: you get guys that are that are good route runners. 355 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: They develop, they developed the ability you can be quick 356 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: and escape. And that's the problem that a lot of 357 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: these college receivers have is they don't play against defensive backs. 358 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: Unless you're playing in an Ohio State or somebody like that, 359 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: that Alabama that's got quality defensive backs. You don't see 360 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: a high level of defensive backs against. And all of 361 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: a sudden, you get in the NFL a guy that 362 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: might not be, you know, an elite or a Pro 363 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: Bowl corner, it can still be effective against you. If 364 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: you don't know how to escape and you don't know 365 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 1: how to run routes. Well, if you go watch you know, 366 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: go watch college, go watch the offense. Those receivers are 367 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: running to a spot. They're not running a pattern and 368 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: adjusting to the defense they see right, and then they 369 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: get here and it's like, oh, I'm not running spot, 370 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: turning around and looking at the quarterback. Huge problem for 371 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: Dez Bryant throughout his career. One of the things when 372 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: Derek Dooley came on board was I've got to develop. 373 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: I've got to make them a better route runner. You know, 374 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: we've seen when des can escape initially, then he can 375 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: develop into or out. But that's a big, big problem 376 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,919 Speaker 1: for a lot of these college college receivers that come 377 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: in the league. And again it's just not Noah Brown, 378 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: it's it's anybody that's been coming in. I mean, we 379 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 1: we've seen that kind of play out throughout history. That's 380 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: why it's hired on the quarterbacks too, because they're not 381 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: running routes. They'll run into a spot and you just 382 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: look for the spot and that's where I'm going to 383 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: throw the Well. Look, look what's going on with with 384 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: with Dak. I mean, you know, if Terrence Williams and 385 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 1: Dez and those guys don't run good routes, it's a 386 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: guy like Beasley. Beasley had so much success last year 387 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: because what was he doing. It's a little, good little 388 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 1: route runner. He knows how to get open. You know, 389 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: they try and they're doubling him now, which has taken 390 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: away a lot of his ability. But last year when 391 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: they were playing with single coverage. You know, he boom 392 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: boom boom. He know, you know, he knows how to 393 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: shake me. Yeah, he shake loose all of a sudden. 394 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 1: That's they say, it's very quarterback friendly when you play 395 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: with a guy like that. Yeah. Absolutely, Well, let's take 396 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: our first break here in the SWBC Mortgage studio.

We have to force him to hold the 455 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: ball uh longer uh uh than he wants to. And 456 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: before I go, I just want to say that we 457 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: we as fans, have absolutely no right to throw anything 458 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: at players, coaches, or anybody uh uh for that matter, 459 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: and anybody who who uh who who chooses to do 460 00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 1: those things uh should be banned from all NFL stadiums. 461 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: Take care, thanks for being patient with me, and have 462 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 1: a great week. By thanks Nebbi. Great points he brought 463 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: up because of the fact, you know, I've heard in 464 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,479 Speaker 1: Coach garrets press commence. I think it was Dave asking 465 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: Coach Garrett what he thought about Derek Carr, Yeah, you know, 466 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: and what he'd seen from him, and he mentioned a 467 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: lot of what Nebby just brought up. So really good points, yeah, 468 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: really really good points. Yeah. And this is going to 469 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: be a difficult game from the aspect of the pass 470 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: rush because what's going to happen is that the Raiders 471 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: very similar to the Cowboys and their way of protecting 472 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 1: the quarterback. It's a big offensive line. It's I think 473 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: Rob talked about it almost like in the nineties when 474 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: they had those, with the exception of Mark Stepanowski. You know, 475 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,239 Speaker 1: Huts in the center though, is a very athletic guy 476 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: likes But they've got some very big guys and you 477 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: know it'll be uh, you know. The matchup though. The 478 00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: good matchup though, is with Marshall Newhouse at that right 479 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: tackle spot against Lawrence. Now, what will happen is I 480 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: don't see the Raiders just allowing Lawrence to play against 481 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 1: him one on one. I think they're gonna put somebody 482 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: over there. I think they're gonna chip him. I think 483 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: they're not. They're not gonna let him rush. Be nice 484 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: if David Irvin could play in this game, because these 485 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: guys they'll struggle with movement and I want a little 486 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 1: bit better movement from my defensive line in this game. 487 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: Make these guys have to chase you a little bit, 488 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: and that's what they have. But if you rush these 489 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,360 Speaker 1: guys down the middle, Derek Carr will have all day 490 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: to throw the football and even though the receivers have 491 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: had problems catching it, they're capable of making plays down 492 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: the field. He's only been sacked seventeen times. Yeah, so 493 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: they've done a good job. They're getting the ball out 494 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: or protecting him. He was saying, they don't have a 495 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 1: prolific passing attack, but got the ball out. Yeah, yeah, 496 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: they'll They'll see what happened last week the Giants did 497 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: to DeMarcus Lawrence. There was a couple of times they 498 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: had two offensive linemen him, like he couldn't spin inside 499 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: because the guard was picking them up. Yeah. So Carr 500 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 1: hurt his back in week four, got that old dreaded 501 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: transverse process. Yeah, fracture. That's not a product of poor 502 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: protection up front. You still see doing a pretty good job. Yeah, 503 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: I think that overall, like Mickey said the seventeen you know, 504 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: I watched the last two games. Kansas City, you know, 505 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: can put pressure on you, and I thought they did 506 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: a pretty good job of holding up overall in that. 507 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,479 Speaker 1: You know, the Giants got nothing really on him as well, 508 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: and they've got a couple of good guys. So yeah, 509 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: it's a it's a it's a difficult task to have 510 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: to deal with these guys because they are so big 511 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 1: and they lean on you. The whole game is lean 512 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: on you, lean on you, lean on you. So again, 513 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: keep guys moving that's where when they're reaching, is when 514 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: they get in trouble, when everything is over extended or 515 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: off balanced. That is when they're at their worst. And 516 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: he's right about throwing stuff at people. Yeah, good point. 517 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 1: Now I'd send them guys into the stands after him. No, 518 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 1: we don't want violence. We don't want we don't want 519 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: that type of behavior either. You know. But if we 520 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: want to stay on the topic of controversy, and we've 521 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: been talking a lot about officiating this week, of course, 522 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: this is the first time that the Cowboys will be 523 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: seeing Gene Sterator I always pronounced can never say right. 524 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: He'll be officiating the game on Sunday. And if you 525 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: guys don't know his name, I'm sure you do if 526 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 1: you were watching the twenty fourteen playoff game when, of 527 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: course the catch no catch decision was called the game. 528 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: He was a guy guy, He was a guy, and 529 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: and Jeane's an interesting guy because he's very much a 530 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 1: He's very much a you know, they'll be wearing long 531 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: sleeves and he pushes up his sleeves so you know, 532 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: you got hockey will just go short. Sleep well, Gene 533 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: is like a very much push up to sleeve and 534 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: he's kind of a no nonsense guy. He's one of 535 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: these you know, you have the call, he's kind of 536 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: holding offense. He's like, you know, let's get to the line. 537 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 1: Come on, you know, he's one of those let's keep 538 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: it going. Yeah, let's keep it going. But you're absolutely right. 539 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: He was. And I want to say this is I 540 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: want to I believe I'm right about this. He was 541 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: a referee in the Seattle Jacksonville game last week. He 542 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: got out of hand. And a weird thing is is 543 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 1: they only called three holding calls. Yeah, yeah on the 544 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: offensive lineman. No, So it doesn't sound like they're big 545 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: on holding. No. But he's very much a kind of 546 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: a no nonsense he's a he's a he's a brass 547 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: tax kind of well, he's a basketball official too, so 548 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: he's used to getting yelled at. You know, he's one 549 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: of those guys. He wouldn't mind adjecting Lebron James. No, 550 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: he probably he had no qumps. But yeah, he's a 551 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: college basketball official when he's not doing NFL game okay, 552 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: and so he but he Yeah, he refereed the Jacksonville 553 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 1: game last week, which got out of hand at the end, 554 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: and then again, Tay's right, that playoff game at lambeau Field, 555 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: he was part of that, but he was referee in 556 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: an all star crew, so it wasn't his crew that 557 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: was causing all the mayhem. I think he got influenced 558 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: on that decision by New York. There's no doubt about it. 559 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: Because we were standing on the sidelines and when because 560 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: right across the field from us was the replay boot 561 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: or the replay box or whatever they would call that 562 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 1: thing now, and he walked the ball was right in 563 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 1: front of us, and he walked right back to where 564 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: the ball was thrown on fourth down. And I when 565 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: I saw him walk that way, I knew. I looked 566 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: at Helm and I said, you're right, we're not going 567 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: to get this one. And sure enough he you know, 568 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 1: and that was the only challenge that Mike McCarthy won 569 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: all year. Yeah, well, you know, we bring up the 570 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: holding because he knew who it was in New York. Yeah, 571 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: we know, we bring up the offensive holding calls. The 572 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: Dallas defense has drawn this season seven in total, four 573 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: of those in September. Yeah, so it's pretty crazy. Obviously, 574 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 1: they went three weeks, they've gone five weeks to stretch 575 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: where they haven't had any and I'm gonna say this, 576 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: they haven't played offensive lines that are that great, you know, 577 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: great good enough to say, Okay, this line is just 578 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: so good they're not going to hold you. Yeah. Sometimes 579 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: sometimes you play the Cowboys, I mean, you know, when 580 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: they get a holding call. You know, when a Tyron 581 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: Smith gets a holding or Zach Martin or Fred whoever 582 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: gets a holding, you're kind of like going, k really 583 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: that okay, that is holding. Yeah, But you know, I mean, 584 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: generally you're not gonna when you play a team it's 585 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: got really good lineman, you're not gonna get holding calls. 586 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: But I think a lot of these teams have not 587 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: had really good offensive line. You have three All pros 588 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: on your offensive line and they're getting called from our 589 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: holding calls than you know, than yeah, the other team. 590 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense. Uh. And on top of that, 591 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: you have a defensive line that has gotten pressure this yeah. 592 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like they've struggled getting into the 593 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: past or you have the second leading sacker in the NFL. 594 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: So it is. It is surprising, and I'm sure you know, 595 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have talked about it with the league trying 596 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: to get them to take a closer look at it. 597 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: You think only two holdings in ten games is not equitable, 598 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: I would say, seem that way. You got a theory 599 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: for it. You know, I don't subscribe to your conspiracy 600 00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory, but I think it's incompetency. Sometimes. I think 601 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: what happens as you go along in the season, these 602 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: referees try to let the games be decided by the players. 603 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: I think the last three weeks, the next, the next 604 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: three weeks, the Cowboys are probably not going to get 605 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: any holding calls. But then again, I don't think holding 606 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: is gonna be called on them either. You know, I 607 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: might be totally wrong about it. I mean, we'll see, 608 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: You've got a couple of games here. You've got good 609 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: pass rushers here against Oakland. You've got good pass rushers 610 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: in Seattle. And of course we'll see what happens in 611 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: Philadelphia with that game if they play them. Yeah, but 612 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: I have a feeling what happens when it gets down 613 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 1: to the end of the season. My experience has been 614 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: that these officials, like Gene, I think they'll stay out 615 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: of this game. I really do. I think they just 616 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: want to move the game along. Let the players decide it. 617 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: If if there's something egregious that needs to be called, 618 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: call it, you know. But they they will let some 619 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: things go in these games. But the problem for the Cowboys, 620 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: it's been going on all year and now get ready 621 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: for you know, the official Yeah, I don't think the 622 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: officials want to insert themselves in these games now when 623 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: it means you either win or you you win or 624 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: you go home. I don't think they want to be 625 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: a part of that. That's the that's the league just 626 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: doesn't want it. What were you going to say, Rob, 627 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: I agree with that. It's just if it's blatant, call it. 628 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: I mean, there's no doubt a lot a lot of 629 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: this is subjective. But if you see a guy taking 630 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: somebody of the ground, I mean you have to call 631 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I don't care, I'm going to 632 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: get picky on you. Okay, his hands were outside on 633 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: the shoulder pads, they weren't inside. But when you start 634 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: grabbing guys around the waist, you gotta call it, and 635 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: especially from behind, gotta call it. I mean, it's exactly 636 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: what happened in the playoff game last year against Green Bay. 637 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,239 Speaker 1: David Irving's gonna sack Aaron Rodgers, right, and a guy 638 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: the center guard grabs him from behind and tackles when 639 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: it goes beyond the fifty fifty. Hey, you could call 640 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: holding here. Yeah, let's see it once again. It's a 641 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: playoff game. Yeah, I don't care. That's and I don't 642 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: care if it was the last game of the season. No, 643 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: and you're and you're right and that. But that's the 644 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: experience that we've had. I know, my experience is it 645 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: tends when it gets to the end, these officials trying 646 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: to stay out of it. You know, it's it's like 647 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: it's not as it's not as bad as hockey playoffs. 648 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: Hockey playoffs is the best when it comes to you 649 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: basically have to take your stick and just smash somebody 650 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: in the face with you to get a call. NBA's 651 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: like that too. You get to a game seven and 652 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: they just they yeah, but we're we're talking whistle, we're 653 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: talking ten games, we're talking it's open. Yeah, we're over 654 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: We're over that. I mean, you're not, but you're not. Don't. 655 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: Like Rob says, if you see it, they're gonna call it. 656 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: But I just don't have a feeling it's gonna be 657 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: with with so many games, now you might get a 658 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: game where two teams it doesn't matter it, the game 659 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Okay, you get your but but the league knows. Okay, hey, 660 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: it's now win or go home for these teams. So 661 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: let's make sure that we're not affecting the way the 662 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 1: game goes one way or another. One of the reasons 663 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: why Seattle has been successful in playoffs they let their 664 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: dbs get away with murder. Well, that's New England was 665 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: the same way for years. New England in that Ram 666 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifteen years ago, was hey, we're gonna have you, 667 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: and we're gonna dare you to blow the whistle and 668 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: throw the flag down every time. And if you didn't, 669 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: if you if you got away with it. Yeah, if 670 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: you see them not making calls, is Gene stairs stores 671 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: stairs from his crew doesn't make calls, then play go, 672 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,719 Speaker 1: play going. But if you're the Cowboy rushers right now, 673 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: you know you're not going to get calls. You cannot 674 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: let that affect you going into this game. You're playing, 675 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: gets a really good your player gets a good offensive line, 676 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,719 Speaker 1: protection wise, you better, you better find a way to win. 677 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: On your technique because you're not going to get it. 678 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: Let's go to this just don't go don't hold them either. Yeah, 679 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: let's go to the phone lines. Now we have Ray 680 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: from New Orleans. What is your question? Heywall doing doing great? 681 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: Thank you. We had a great time in New York. 682 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: We went to the game. I'm just riding this way. 683 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens coming up. Yep. I guess my 684 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: question would be when Zeke comes back, do you guys 685 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: think he'll be like five carries a game or do 686 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: you think that would I'm sure it's got to take 687 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: some time. And then maybe um our kicker Dan Bailey 688 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: and he struggled this week, but maybe they're still a 689 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: lingering a lingering of injury there. I'll just call and 690 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: talk a little cowboys and say hello, and we had 691 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: a great time with the game. And my out of 692 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: all the scenarios, thinking to the playoffs, you guys are 693 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: talking about yesterday and fans are looking at the schedules. 694 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: Also the Lions, man are the ones that worry me 695 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: the most because they only play I think Sea Cincinnati 696 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: and they may they may win out. That's my biggest 697 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: spear right there. The Lions schedule. If we can win 698 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: our games, thank you. I think the Lions are at 699 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: least of their worries. Yeah, don't they play the Packers though, 700 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: I mean, yes, Packers finish up the year with the Lion. Yeah, 701 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 1: they do, they do. You know, I think it's exciting 702 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 1: and every year you look at that Week seventeen schedule 703 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: and it's obviously all divisional games, and it's it's always 704 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: fun to see and makes a huge difference. Yeah, it does. 705 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,439 Speaker 1: Lions got Chicago at Cincinnati and Green Bay, but they're 706 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 1: they're it can't be better than the Cowboys. No, so 707 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: if we know, the Cowboys gotta win out, so they 708 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: would both finish at ten and six. Yeah, so I 709 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 1: just then it comes down to the tiebreaker. I have 710 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: a feeling, actually you would like to get in the 711 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: tiebreaker with Detroit in a three way, right because because 712 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 1: then that would throw away the head to heads the 713 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: head stuff, right. Yeah. See, that's the thing about it is, 714 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 1: though you have to figure out, you know, with the 715 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: with the way the situation, I think the fifth seed 716 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 1: in this tournament is going to be the second place 717 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: team in the NFC South. I think it's either gonna 718 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: be Atlanta Carolina or the Saints. Yeah, it still could 719 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: be the West. Well, I don't know. I have a 720 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: feeling though, because if you could take care of you 721 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: beat the Rams, the Rams, the Rams could beat I 722 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 1: think you need the Rams to beat the Seahawks myself. 723 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: I think you need the Rams to win that division 724 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 1: because they've already beaten you. Am I right about that? 725 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, just so, yeah, so you get them 726 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 1: out of the way, let them take care of Seattle, 727 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: get them another loss, and then you take care of 728 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,800 Speaker 1: them next week and they play this Sunday, Yeah, and 729 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: then get ahead of them. That's that's how you have 730 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,959 Speaker 1: to do that, you know. But I think a rant 731 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,919 Speaker 1: a Seattle victory there, I think is not good for you. Yeah, 732 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: but but I think the fifth the fifth seed and 733 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: the Sea Now you're playing for the sixth seed. Okay, 734 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: Now who that's gonna come down to? Who that's gonna 735 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: come down to? Seattle's in that spot right now? Am 736 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: I correct about that? Right? Okay? We need to get 737 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 1: Seattle out of there. Actually, Atlanta's I think just above them, 738 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 1: are they? I thought for some reason that that seat 739 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: I thought Atlanta was still sitting in the in the Carolina, Atlanta, Seattle. Okay, five, 740 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 1: six and seven right now? Yeah, okay, there you go. 741 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: You need you need you need some help from Tampa too, 742 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 1: and that's who knows. Yeah, you're not luck with them. 743 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: Yeah you've I've asked for help then the last couple 744 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: of weeks and it just hasn't. I don't think they 745 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: I don't think Zeke steps right in and they give 746 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: them twenty five carries. I think they'll do something closer 747 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: to what they did with Sean Lee and give them 748 00:36:56,200 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 1: a series here in a series there to sit out. Yeah, Rob, 749 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: I saw you posted it about Dan Bailey earlier today 750 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: and coach Garrett gave an update there for Ray. Yeah, 751 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 1: it doesn't. They don't believe it's it's a lingering thing 752 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: with his with the growing injury, growing hamstring, whatever you 753 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: want to call it. Tough day at the office. I 754 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: think that's that's kind of what happened and extremely rare 755 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 1: for him. I think they fully expect him to bounce back. 756 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,800 Speaker 1: And again, I mean those were a couple long field goals, 757 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,879 Speaker 1: tough place to kick. It's the extra point that kind 758 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: of puzzles you a little bit. But as the poll 759 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 1: will show, potentially next segment. I mean, he's arguably the 760 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: most steady guy they got.

Bailey's 822 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 1: an option LP latticer long snapper Sean Lee and I 823 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 1: didn't know how to separate these three all pro linemens, 824 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: so I put tyre In, Travis and Zach all together. 825 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: Guys got a choice.

I mean, 827 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: don't you don't think about that pro bowler. I mean yeah, 828 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: former deep snapper myself. He's had a couple of wayward ones. 829 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: You know, if you have a couple of wayward ones year, 830 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 1: you're not deep long Yeah, yeah, yeah, right.

Right. 834 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: There was a time last year actually was it was 835 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,280 Speaker 1: the same time that the Cowboys were playing the Giants 836 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 1: last year, so Week fourteen, and it was very odd 837 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: because they had a Sunday night football game and all 838 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: these different long snappers were going out in games. Yeah, 839 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: and I remember thinking, okay, well who's the cowboys backup 840 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: long snapper? Yeah? And obviously, you know superstition, you never 841 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 1: say anything. The special teams called oh did you ask? No? God, 842 00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: I did. I got ripped you did before? Oh, I 843 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 1: know this is a this was a preseason game I 844 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: was doing. This was probably three years ago. And I 845 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: asked Bisaccia, like, I know, I was super I was doing. 846 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 1: I was doing the game on the radio with Brad, 847 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: and I asked I was on the field. I go, hey, 848 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: Rich who, by the way, who is your backup long snapper? 849 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: You know, just trying to have knowledge, Yeah, just trying 850 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: to in case something happened, you know, or question. I'm 851 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 1: doing the game. I don't want to get caught, you know. 852 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 1: Brad some well, Brian, who do you think you know? 853 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean I I so he looked at me, 854 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,919 Speaker 1: and I mean like F bomb after f bomb after 855 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 1: I'm like, just I just go, hey, I'm doing the 856 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: game on the radio. He goes, I don't give up, 857 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 1: and then and I said, okay, I got I walked away. Homenger. 858 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: We found out that it was Emmett clearly because actually 859 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 1: in that game why I said that. You know, I 860 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,919 Speaker 1: was thinking this before the game. I'm like, well, who cares. 861 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: LP's always always good. The very end, final quarter he 862 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,800 Speaker 1: banged up his knee a little bit. Yeah, and it 863 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 1: was out for one series, I believe, but it didn't matter. 864 00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: Didn't matter. Yeah, Well, I would say I think man 865 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,760 Speaker 1: Sean Lee's a tough one too, because every time he plays, 866 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 1: you know, good things seemed to be and he plays 867 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 1: so many snaps Anthony Hitchens now yeah, yeah, four and 868 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 1: out of the season with him and Hitch together, Yeah, 869 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,360 Speaker 1: and everything he's asked to do in terms of you know, 870 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,640 Speaker 1: he's kind of the point guard quarterback of the defense. 871 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: So what do you got? Mickey's he's studying, just doing 872 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 1: some studying here for my poll? Huh for your poll? Yeah, 873 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: where you got? You gotta write in or you gotta know. Okay, 874 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: who you got? Who won? We're not gonna say, You're 875 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:36,919 Speaker 1: not gonna give a guess. We only have an hour 876 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: on this show, all right. The winner of today's pole 877 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: is LP lattice Er thirty eight percent, Dan Bailey right 878 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: behind it, thirty five special teams. They just stay consistent 879 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 1: and I think you could even have put Chris Jones 880 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,839 Speaker 1: in there. Absolutely, Yeah, gotten better and better since he's 881 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 1: been here. I was counting up the kickers that have 882 00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 1: had at least twenty extra point attempts, okay, and six 883 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: of them are perfect. Yeah, there's forty two listed here everybody. 884 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: But of the guys that had at least twenty, six 885 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 1: are perfect. So Dan Bailey's one short of perfect for 886 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: the first time in his life. Oh jeez. And it's 887 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 1: not a chip shot anymore either, by the way, So 888 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: you were saying Dan Bailey, dan Bailey was your consistent guy, 889 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: then yeah, I don't just you know what I mean. 890 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 1: I that was a really good pull because I was 891 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 1: thinking a lot of sore. We don't nearly talk about 892 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: him nearly enough shot. Yeah, and you know, and then 893 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: Dan Bailey though, other than the miss, that's the one 894 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 1: that bothered me. The two fifty yards goals didn't bother me. 895 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: The extra point miss, extra point from thirty three yards. 896 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,320 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, don't let me have to kick one of 897 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,359 Speaker 1: those thirty three yard field goals and have a miss. 898 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 1: I think he made an overcorrection, maybe because the win 899 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: was playing with the long field goal. Real quick story, 900 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 1: real quick calling, a high school game, state playoff game, 901 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,800 Speaker 1: We're gonna overtime. Kids. Made one hundred straight extra points 902 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: for Copell, and then he missed and they lost it. 903 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 1: They got knocked out the state playoffs third round on 904 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 1: a missed extra point. Made one hundred straight and that 905 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 1: that stright. Oh yeah, I mean that. But you think 906 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: about the kicking, the kicking, you just you take so 907 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: much for granted with Dan Billy. And then he makes 908 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: misses a field goal. He missed it hits the upright 909 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: and you're going, oh, okay, yeah, okay, it's fifty three yards, 910 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 1: tough chance. Then he has the ball just blow completely 911 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 1: to the right on the fifty yard and you're going, okay, 912 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: something's not right here. And then all of Saden well 913 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 1: cowboys go up. Everybody's cheering, cheering, cheering, extra point, no 914 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 1: good man, time out on the field. You're going, he 915 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 1: just missed an extra point. Okay, yeah, that doesn't happen. 916 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 1: What's And everybody just kind of goes in to the 917 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: refrigerator and gets a sandwich, you know where Nate and 918 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 1: I were sitting there like did he just miss another? 919 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: Did he miss an extra point? Yeah? And then it 920 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: became well, something's not right with this, but he made one. 921 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: He did made one field goal? Was it twenty one yards? Yeah? Hey, 922 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:11,320 Speaker 1: second most accurate kicker, Now that's right. Who's he behind 923 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 1: the Tucker? Oh no, And Tucker's got swacked. And that's 924 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: the one thing I really like account Dan Bill. He's 925 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 1: got some swack. I just don't think that he had 926 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 1: like Tucker kicked. I think it was Tucker's performed in 927 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: front of the opera. Go. He had something where he 928 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: did you know, he had a very long field goal, 929 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 1: might have been sixty yards something like that, and he's 930 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 1: had sixty yards before and he kicks it and he 931 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,480 Speaker 1: goes in and he does like you know, he's a 932 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 1: performer aladiator. Yeah, yeah, he's kind of a yeoman. Yeah, 933 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 1: he's a showman. Grammatica, Mickey. What's my guy's name at Philadelphia? Elliott? 934 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 1: Is it Elliot? Way to go? Tay to know your players? Right? 935 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: The other day in Los Angeles, he makes a sixty 936 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 1: two yard fuel goal. Oh yeah, we were all watching 937 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 1: that on the plane and they took they took it 938 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 1: off the board. They had they had a leverage call. 939 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 1: That that's something that you don't always see. They made 940 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 1: a leverage call and gave him fifteen yards and the 941 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: Eagles took the ball and just kept driving. Yeah, but 942 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 1: here this guy kicks his sixty two yard field goal 943 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 1: and you will take that off the board. That's okay. Well, 944 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 1: and you look when Dan Bailey was had his Pro 945 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 1: Bowl season two years ago, when the team was four 946 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:20,439 Speaker 1: and twelve. You look at that and you think, okay, 947 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 1: four and twelve. But really there were a few games 948 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 1: that season that they actually relied on him a lot. 949 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,799 Speaker 1: Of course, the big win in Washington. But I'm trying 950 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 1: to think. I think I as Joe Trehan, this the 951 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:34,840 Speaker 1: other dairpr in RPR department, and he said, you know, 952 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 1: he couldn't really remember exactly which game was the last 953 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 1: one that they relied on Dan Bailey. He thinks it's 954 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:45,439 Speaker 1: the Washington Redskin and he's had ten in his career. Really, 955 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 1: see there you go. I mean, he's as respected as 956 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 1: anybody on the team, so he should have won the pull. Well, 957 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:53,800 Speaker 1: he was right there. He was right there with his 958 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 1: fellow Operation kicker guy. Yeah, so that might be a 959 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 1: thing where the people take him for granted. Again, I 960 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 1: know I said that when he got hurt, because it's 961 00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:06,759 Speaker 1: like then you bring in Nugent, who's a solid kicker 962 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: but has struggled in those forty something yard kicks, and 963 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 1: Dan has always been completely money from there bouncing him 964 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:17,240 Speaker 1: off the upper right right. You know. Yeah, so the kicker, 965 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: I mean the kicker, the deep snapper, so brought us 966 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,839 Speaker 1: can be an expert on this. You don't have any 967 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,759 Speaker 1: any elements of conditions there to affect your deep snap? 968 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 1: Do you will the wind take a deep snap? You know, 969 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: it might move it, Yeah, it might move it like 970 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,840 Speaker 1: that you see. But you know the biggest problem I 971 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,399 Speaker 1: had One time, guy was throwing grass on my hand. 972 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 1: Who was down? You're down on the ground, I was. 973 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:47,360 Speaker 1: I had my hands went there there, look down and 974 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,400 Speaker 1: the guy I was throwing grass bits in the stance 975 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,759 Speaker 1: on the top of my hand, like real grass, real grass, 976 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: like picking the like in the stance. He's picking the 977 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 1: grass up and he was throwing it on the top 978 00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:00,120 Speaker 1: of my hand. What team was this? MISSI state? What 979 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: you do? After the game, I went up to him 980 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,200 Speaker 1: and I go, I've never had anybody do that to 981 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,359 Speaker 1: me because I try and mess with people all the time. 982 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: I seriously when I was laughing, Oh yeah, we were 983 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,920 Speaker 1: both laughing. But I had never had somebody throw grass 984 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,959 Speaker 1: on my hand before. Now you can pick up the dirt, 985 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: the pellets, pellets, the pets. It was because I was like, 986 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 1: I was there and I looked down, I looked up, 987 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 1: look down, and also I feel like bits I look 988 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:25,800 Speaker 1: up again and then I looked down. I'm like a snap, 989 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,759 Speaker 1: and I'm like and he kept doing it. Yeah, it 990 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,239 Speaker 1: was one of those things that it was just trying 991 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 1: to be every time or just one time, just trying 992 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 1: to be irritating. You didn't go Jacksonville on him. No 993 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 1: unsportsman like conduct. There's things, there's all kinds of things 994 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 1: you will do to people. Oh and it worked after 995 00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 1: the game. Can you tell a guy's name? Darren Woodson 996 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 1: did a great feature yesterday on NFL Live. I don't 997 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 1: know if you guys were able to catch it, but 998 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 1: go look for it. He he interviewed Jalen Ramsey and 999 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,720 Speaker 1: a majority of their interview was talking about how Jalen Ramsey, 1000 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 1: just a second year guy, has had so many trash 1001 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: talking stories. Oh yeah, you know, and what he does 1002 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 1: to getting guy's heads as far as covering big time receivers, 1003 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 1: and it was very interesting. I thought, you know, of 1004 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: course Darren is such a great guy to do that 1005 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 1: because he's such a nice guy. But oh, Darren will talk, 1006 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 1: will talk some trash too with you now, yeah, you 1007 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 1: will talk some trash, yes, in a in a good way. 1008 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: It was great. Let's go to David from Texas. What 1009 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,719 Speaker 1: is your question? David? Hello, I want to say hid 1010 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 1: everybody's my first time to call in. I listen to 1011 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 1: you all when I walk. I walk twenty thousand steps 1012 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:27,919 Speaker 1: today and I listen to you all all the time. 1013 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,560 Speaker 1: So I appreciate that. Thank you, thank you, and try 1014 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: to get our steps. Glad we could help you out. 1015 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 1: Absolutely well, thank you, Mickey. I've been listening out for 1016 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: so long. Listen, Brian, I got a question for you 1017 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 1: every part to pick your brain about this for so long. 1018 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: Can you explain please about zone blocking and what the 1019 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,919 Speaker 1: opposite of that is, because I remember y'all talking about 1020 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 1: how Darren McFadden did not really fit into that pattern, 1021 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:57,320 Speaker 1: and I wondered if if that was why we couldn't 1022 00:50:57,320 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 1: score touchdowns with him. But I just wanted to know 1023 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,400 Speaker 1: if you could blame the offensive line blocks, Yeah, what 1024 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: we use and how that works supposed to whatever else thereis. Yeah, well, 1025 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,840 Speaker 1: the difference is the course. The difference is zone blocking 1026 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,840 Speaker 1: man blocking. Man blocking. Zone blocking is you take a 1027 00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 1: read step and then if if that, if the man shows, 1028 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:20,320 Speaker 1: and usually your step is based on the guy's knee. 1029 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 1: If the knee comes to you, he's your guy. If 1030 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 1: the knee goes away, you go up onto the second 1031 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,799 Speaker 1: level or you go up on your path. So that's 1032 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 1: kind of the zone blocking. Man blocking is Okay, that's 1033 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,759 Speaker 1: your guy, no matter what. You know, you're responsible for 1034 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: the center's responsible for the nose, the backside guards responsible 1035 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:42,800 Speaker 1: for the linebacker. So that's really really the biggest differences. 1036 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 1: It's just about the alignment of where guys are, and 1037 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 1: it's about the technique that you use. So you say, okay, 1038 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 1: where a zone blocking team man comes to you, he's yours. 1039 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 1: That's why you Sometimes you'll see like Frederick will pass 1040 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:58,640 Speaker 1: the guy off to Martin behind him and then they'll 1041 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: just go up to say because you'll have two guys 1042 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 1: a response like the center of the guard a responsile for, say, 1043 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,360 Speaker 1: the nose and the backside linebacker. And so that's what 1044 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:10,920 Speaker 1: they do. It's it's a two on two block and 1045 00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,279 Speaker 1: it just happens to be. If the guy appears into 1046 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 1: your area, that's you take him, and then I'm going 1047 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:17,320 Speaker 1: up on the second level. So you have to have 1048 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 1: a lot of coordination between the two on how you 1049 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:24,200 Speaker 1: do things. So it seems like if if you had 1050 00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 1: guys who were out for a while or new guys 1051 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: coming in and like we had to deal with this year, 1052 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: that would present more of a problem. I think that's 1053 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 1: probably why our running game stalled so much the beginning 1054 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: of the year. Yeah, I won't take up anymore of 1055 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,280 Speaker 1: your time, guys. I'm home sick today. I'm a teacher. 1056 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm home sick today. But I'm a huge Romo fan. 1057 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 1: But I love Dak too, so I'm really glad. I 1058 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,280 Speaker 1: think the future is bright. Y'all. Have a merry Christmas 1059 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 1: in a happy year. Thank you, Thank you. Sounds like 1060 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 1: you would be a great teacher. Thank you, David for 1061 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:55,719 Speaker 1: teaching absolutely so. In this zone blocking you got to 1062 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:57,440 Speaker 1: have a lot of trust for the guy next to you. 1063 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 1: Let a guy go and say okay, yeah pick you know, 1064 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:04,239 Speaker 1: and again, like I say, most most guys will teach 1065 00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 1: it as if the knee comes to you, it's yours. 1066 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 1: If the knee goes away, you're up and then you 1067 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 1: trust the guy and you trust and you trust. And 1068 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:18,840 Speaker 1: that's why sometimes you'll see some guys backdoor plays and 1069 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,719 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, the guy can't get over. 1070 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 1: That's why cut off blocks and stuff are so important. 1071 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 1: You'll see Travis, You'll see a Tyrn Smith and he 1072 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 1: does this great. He actually gets when he's cutting guys off, 1073 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:35,719 Speaker 1: he will get depth like he's pulling. I mean he 1074 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,839 Speaker 1: instead of going flat or inside to cut off, he'll 1075 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:43,879 Speaker 1: he'll take a deep drop and then he's so good 1076 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 1: at turning the corner that the guy, I mean he 1077 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 1: cuts the guy off before he gets to And what 1078 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 1: he does by doing that it allows when Elliott they 1079 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,759 Speaker 1: take that ball and they'll push it and then they'll 1080 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 1: come back because he's just such a great wall. Him 1081 00:53:57,640 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 1: and Ron Larry were really good at that. I mean 1082 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:03,279 Speaker 1: Larry Larry would throw more memory throw with the cut 1083 00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 1: block more where Smith would stay up on his feet. 1084 00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 1: But that's yeah, that's that's really how that zone block 1085 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 1: and stuff the work you do. You gotta have a 1086 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:13,440 Speaker 1: lot of trust that the guy next to you is 1087 00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 1: this reads it the right way. By the way he's 1088 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 1: on I R two. Yeah, I saw that. See that 1089 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 1: on Larry Yeah yeah, back back, Yeah, I hate that 1090 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,919 Speaker 1: for him. I'm a big ron Larry fan. Great guy. Yes, 1091 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,920 Speaker 1: are you headed to later today? I'm headed to Los Callinas, 1092 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 1: probably thirty minutes from here, going to the Four Seasons. Yeah, 1093 00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,680 Speaker 1: the spot.

The uh it's it's a restaurant on 1098 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 1: the green is what they can think that they call it. 1099 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 1: It's actually got a really good burger in there. If 1100 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:53,480 Speaker 1: you want to go ahead, IM go. Yeah, I'm gonna 1101 00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 1: enjoy burger by myself.

What are you expecting 1107 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,440 Speaker 1: to hear from Jerry out there? Well, I just imagine 1108 00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 1: every reporter from every walk of the country is going 1109 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 1: to be wanting to talk to him because you know 1110 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:19,759 Speaker 1: the storyline about Roger Goodell's contract and Jerry's you know, 1111 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,239 Speaker 1: thoughts on it, and you know, it's the first opportunity, 1112 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:23,840 Speaker 1: I think since it's been done for all the owners 1113 00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 1: to get together and it's Jerry's Jerry's backyard. So yeah, 1114 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 1: sometimes while I'm getting ready in the morning, I'll listen 1115 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:33,960 Speaker 1: to YouTube videos or whatever, you know, just kind of speeches. 1116 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,160 Speaker 1: I like to hear speeches, and Jerry Jones Hall of 1117 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:38,560 Speaker 1: Fame speech came up. Of course, this was back in August, 1118 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: and what he said about Roger Goodell back then was 1119 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:42,920 Speaker 1: a little bit different than what we've heard lately, and 1120 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,320 Speaker 1: it was very neat. Though. You know, I think I 1121 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 1: think Jerry just wants a good NFL. I he dies, 1122 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:53,320 Speaker 1: all he wants is the NFL to sustain and have 1123 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,480 Speaker 1: a bright view. He's trying to pass it on to 1124 00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 1: somebody else, you know, and he's always talked about that 1125 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,280 Speaker 1: that you know, the owners up the cowboys and stuff. 1126 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:04,560 Speaker 1: But he's I don't disagree with him about Roger Goodell. 1127 00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: I really don't. I feel like, you know, what you know, 1128 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,480 Speaker 1: to me, if they've got the compensation where it's now 1129 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 1: down to you have to get certain bonuses and so 1130 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 1: you have to obtain certain goals. I'm all for that. 1131 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:20,959 Speaker 1: But he's right, He goes, why are we jumping into 1132 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,960 Speaker 1: this now? You know? Why? You know what? He I 1133 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:27,399 Speaker 1: think he was eighteen months They don't. Yeah, so you're 1134 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 1: basically giving him a whole another year's salary, a year 1135 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:34,360 Speaker 1: and a half of you know, extra salary, you know, 1136 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 1: and and why you know? I don't. To me, I don't. 1137 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:40,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it's I don't think it was the 1138 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,560 Speaker 1: right thing to do. I think that I think Jerry's 1139 00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:45,520 Speaker 1: absolutely right. Don't. Let's let's let's look at what we 1140 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,319 Speaker 1: have ahead here, you know, let's let's you know, let's 1141 00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: let's sit down with the commissioner and say, hey, this 1142 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:53,360 Speaker 1: is what we don't like, you know, this is what 1143 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 1: we're doing good, but this is what we don't like, 1144 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, instead of just saying, okay, it's rubber stamp, 1145 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:01,839 Speaker 1: let's move on. You know. I think there's some real 1146 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,800 Speaker 1: issues that took place this year. There's some new challenges 1147 00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 1: that have cropped up in the league, and it's not 1148 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 1: just handling issues of alleged to domestic violence, which is 1149 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 1: what you know. Obviously, that's what the Cowboys have been 1150 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 1: involved in with Zeke. And you see what happened in 1151 00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:19,240 Speaker 1: Houston the other day with that concussion thing. Yeah, oh, 1152 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 1: Tom Savage, Yeah, come on, really that too. I mean, 1153 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: you know, let's let's talk about that. Let's let's sit 1154 00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:27,560 Speaker 1: down and talk about discipline, like you said, you know, 1155 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,960 Speaker 1: let's talk about concussion. Let's talk about some of the 1156 00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 1: benefits for me, for older players. I mean, let's kind 1157 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 1: of figure this out instead of just saying, okay, well, 1158 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 1: here's here's the NFL manual operating manual for twenty eighteen, 1159 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: and here's the one for twenty nineteen, and here's the 1160 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:46,120 Speaker 1: one for twenty twenty. That's the way that that program 1161 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: tends to run. You know. I always make fun of 1162 00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 1: it that they all know the train schedules going home 1163 00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 1: to Connecticut, you know, but they're not thinking about you 1164 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 1: and I down here in this office. I think a 1165 00:57:56,120 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 1: lot of people don't have the constitution Jerry he has 1166 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,840 Speaker 1: for the unknown. Yeah, and so it's like, if you 1167 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 1: don't have Goodell as your commissioner, they get scared. Yeah, 1168 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 1: what are we gonna do. Who are we gonna get? 1169 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:12,400 Speaker 1: The game is already suffering, right, The game is suffering. 1170 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 1: And you know Jerry, he he doesn't want to see 1171 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 1: suffer and he loves that. He loves the underone to 1172 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:21,880 Speaker 1: operate in the unknown. Are sure, and he's not afraid 1173 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, if you have to make change, you 1174 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 1: go back to what they did with the TV contract 1175 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 1: right when they got Fox involved. But he else was like, oh, oh, 1176 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 1: we gotta give money back, money back. We can't do that. 1177 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:34,880 Speaker 1: Who's gonna take you know? And then all of a 1178 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,160 Speaker 1: sudden Fox pays more. Yeah.
