Did Billy he's the one Yeah, I think 49 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: he's the one person that's allowed to do that. But Isaiah, 50 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: how are you doing today? I'm good, ma, I am good. 51 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: I feel good. You know, back back on the grind, 52 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: at the work, both both jobs. They're in here. Nice 53 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 1: sounds good? Yeah, right back at it. And of course, 54 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have one more regular season game to go to, 55 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: and that's the Philadelphia Eagles on the road Saturday night football. 56 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: Hey HONEYESPN, So they flexed it to Saturday. Short week 57 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys, short or week. It's not a short week, 58 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: I guess, no Thursday game. Think goodness. But Rob, I'll 59 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 1: start with you on this. What goes into the decision 60 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: to switch it to Saturday? Why? Why are the Cowboys 61 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: being pushed up a day? Is it solely based on 62 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: TV or is there something else that's kind of lined 63 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: up with it. Well, first of all, I feel like 64 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: the kid at dodgeball that just got Blast to be picked. 65 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm I feel left out today. I'll be back with 66 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: you guys soon. Yeah. I think it's about TV. And 67 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: actually I was kind of surprised. Mike McCarthy said he 68 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: talked to rich Dalrypple, VP of public Relations, and they 69 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: kind of weighed in on the on the press conference 70 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: yesterday that they knew that this might be coming five 71 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: six weeks ago. Wow. So I think it is all 72 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: TV related and flexing things and finding games that have 73 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: more you know, playoff implications. In a way, this is 74 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: kind of a boring matchup, I guess for the networks 75 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: in a wave and though even though it's the Cowboys Eagles, 76 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: because both teams are in and it's just a matter 77 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: of seating. So but I was kind of surprised that 78 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: they thought this possibly could have been coming as early 79 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: as November apparently, and just in conversations being had yesterday, 80 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: it also sounded like it may be a possibility to 81 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: play on Saturday during the Wildcard round, maybe not for 82 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, but also for the Eagles. It could be 83 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: either one of those sides. Do you see that as 84 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: a possibility as well for Dallas? I know the Eagles 85 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: could certainly be put in that regard too, But do 86 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: you see that as something that could be he talked 87 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: about later. Yeah. Absolutely, that's the other side of it too. 88 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: And I think, you know, if you're gonna have a 89 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: short week, you'd rather have it this week than play 90 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: on Sunday against Philly and then turn around and play 91 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: Saturday night against Philly. I don't think. I think, yeah, 92 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: that's a possibility to now. Look, they're either play Saturday 93 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: or they'll play Sunday with that home playoff game. So yeah, 94 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: I think it's kind of a two prong thing. But 95 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: but we've seen the league flex these games down the stretch, 96 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: and for this particular week, I don't think it does 97 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: them a lot of favors in terms of preparation having 98 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: to play on a short week. But hey, they're gonna 99 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: play everybody, right, They're gonna load up and play. Isaiah, 100 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: you're shaking your head. I just don't. I mean, it 101 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: is what it is. It's a business, you know, it's 102 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: a business, and unfortunately the league can just pull this 103 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: pull this string whenever they feel you know, at the 104 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,239 Speaker 1: dismay of the players unfortunately, but you know, you're you're 105 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: a constant professionals. So the guys they'll obviously figure it 106 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 1: out and no make it happen. But it's a lot 107 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: of demand on your body, man. How But that's the 108 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: other thing though, is like how much of a difference 109 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: this one day A lot? I get a Thursday to 110 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: a Saturday or Thursday to a Sunday break, But it 111 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: is that much of a difference one day, absolutely, there's 112 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: that's another day that you don't get treatment as another 113 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: day you don't get to sit in the hot selves. 114 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: Another day you don't get stretching by by professional or 115 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: get a massage, just recovery, acupuncture, you know, whatever it 116 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: may be. Then in your typical regiment, that's one less 117 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: day or you know that you get for that potential weekend. 118 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: It's at the end of the season when you need 119 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: it most, you know, when your body's most beat down. 120 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: So I like, again, the league has a has a 121 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: job to do. There's a business. They got to get 122 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: their TV money. You know, I have to do what's 123 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 1: best for viewership. But at the same time, it's at 124 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: the dismay of players. Well, they took care of the 125 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: decision for the Cowboys on whether they were going to 126 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: rest their players in the final week, So there it is, 127 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: you know, And I think that with with Mike McCarthy 128 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: in the press conference, he even voiced like, um, he 129 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: just said, you know, they knew five weeks in advance 130 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: that they had an opportunity possibly to play in this game. 131 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: So you know, look, that's why they no matter what 132 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: they say, Yeah, we're going to play all of our 133 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: guys because you have to because you're now you're in 134 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: on a short week, and how imperative that day off 135 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: is two professional athletes. But you know, I just think 136 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: I look forward to this matchup, especially with everything that 137 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: happened versus the Cardinals. We want to try and get 138 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: this offense back going and this is the week and 139 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: you and that was going to be one of my 140 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: questions to you man. It's just you know, after the 141 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: week that we had with the offense looking dysfunctional, is 142 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: this imperative that you see as even like looking at 143 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: it from a preseason game kind of situation where at 144 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: least the starters play the first half and maybe backups 145 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: coming in second half. I think you play your guys 146 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: to the point where you feel like you've accomplished whatever 147 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: goal that you set out for that week. And I 148 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: think you need to have a sense of confidence. I 149 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: mean your team if that happens in the first quarter, 150 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: happs in the first quarter, if that happens at the 151 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: end of the game, at the end of the game. 152 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: But I think you need to obviously take care of 153 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: your guys, but you can't go into it scared, right. 154 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: I know, that's probably the mentality that most people pretty 155 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: much have going into this matchup. You want to ensure 156 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: that you come out of it healthy, but at the 157 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: same time, you need to ensure that you come out 158 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: of it with confidence as well and feeling good about 159 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: your game plan, your execution, um, you know, and obviously 160 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: you guys, you know, feeling good about their play and 161 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: kind of going along with that. I mean, Philadelphia is 162 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: a team that's dealing with a bunch right now also, 163 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: so you could get it get to that level in 164 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: the first quarter, first half. Did you guys see the 165 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: list of masses that were placed on the COVID massive 166 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: you want to see you, I'm gonna read them out 167 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: because they're big names too ready, Jenard, Avery, Fletcher Cox, 168 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: Marcus Epps, Dallas Goddard, Nick her Big, Jordan Howard, Jason Kelsey, 169 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: Avante Maddox, Rodney McLeod, Boston Scott, Alex Singleton, Jack Stole, 170 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: all on the reserve COVID nineteen list, Randall Cunningham, Bryan Dawkins, 171 00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: Michael Vick, Torell oh, Michael Vick naw, they're all coming crazy. 172 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: It's crazy, have you. I know, we've been through this 173 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: already and we've seen the COVID reserve list play its 174 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: impact on games like this. But I mean in terms 175 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: of key starters losing, I mean, I don't know if 176 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have faced a team yet that has lost 177 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: that number of starters yet, Robin, Is there any way 178 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: that they get back with this new rule because of 179 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: the five days because even though it is a short week, Yeah, 180 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the thing is with the five day 181 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: rule and testing on Monday and having these positive tests 182 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 1: come back for Philly, that's that's part of the new 183 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 1: protocol where now it's an opportunity for guys to come 184 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: back Sunday, And you know, I think maybe with this 185 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: new variant. You're seeing guys by and large, it's not 186 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's not for everybody in the population, but 187 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: people who are lssarly who are vaccinated or clearing this 188 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: overcron quicker, you know. And I think that's so that's 189 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: part of the thinking is that maybe the Eagles could 190 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: get a large number of those guys back by Sunday. 191 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 1: We'll see. I mean, in the past, with that delta 192 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: varya end, I'm thinking probably I'm putting on my virology 193 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: hat here that passed with the delta varia. You know, 194 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: if a guy got if a guy got the guy COVID, 195 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 1: you're you're at I mean, we saw it with the 196 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 1: Cowboys earlier season. You're out for that week for sure. Um, 197 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, there's less it seems like there's more of 198 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: a chance that you could get back sooner. So you know, 199 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: we'll see. But I mean, that's tough for Philly. They're 200 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: lucky that they clinched and took care of business last week, right, Yeah, 201 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: that's huge if if any of those guys are missing, 202 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 1: they're gonna be missing them. I mean, you talk to 203 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,239 Speaker 1: talk about your starting center. You're a starting guard. You 204 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: your best defensive player and Fletcher Cox, guy who had 205 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: to pick last week against Washington. So yeah, it's all huge, 206 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: But let's let's keep talking about this Cowboys loss in Arizona. 207 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: We've got Twitter questions coming up here on the other segment. 208 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: You can still keep sending those in. We need a 209 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: couple more on Kyle underscore Yeomans on Twitter. But Hackman, 210 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: when you take a look back and you've now watched 211 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: the film a little bit more and you've seen and 212 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 1: dissected what happened on Sunday, does anything else stick out 213 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: to you that we didn't necessarily hit yesterday? You know, 214 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: I tell you what. I was in the stadium watching 215 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: the game, and a man at and T Stadium was 216 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: on fire again and it was rocking, And you know, 217 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: so different, man, when you're at the game versus watching 218 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: the copy on television, you know, and going back and 219 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: watching the game again. I think one of the things, 220 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: you know, much has been said about the referees from 221 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: the team, from coaches, from people in general in the media. 222 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: One of the things that I noticed right away, and 223 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: I you know, I've always talked about how I felt 224 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: like establishing the line of scrimmage for offensive line was 225 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: so important. But the Cardinals did a wonderful job. Their 226 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: defensive line did and where they got away with some 227 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: things was holding up our offensive line and preventing them 228 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: from getting to the second level. Those were calls that 229 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: didn't get made, and typically defensive holding at the line 230 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: of scrimmage is one of those hard ones to catch. 231 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: They don't call it a lot, but and that's why 232 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: you know Vansh Joseph obviously the DC probably planning for 233 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: it to not allow Connor Williams or Zach Mardin to 234 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: get to the next level. To get on Isaiah Simon 235 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: is to open up some of those running lanes. And 236 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: so those were some of the things that I saw. 237 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: But all in all, Man I still stick with what 238 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: I said yesterday. It just looked like this offense was 239 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: out of rhythm. The penalties is really what costs them. 240 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: It just negated any motive, any anything that they had 241 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: as far as offensive synergy in that game. Greg zero line, 242 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: That was it, Greg zero line. This is something that 243 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: has to be shared up. The last concern that you 244 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: want to have going into the playoffs is worried about 245 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: can your kicker make a kick? Once you get across 246 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: the forty. It's not the concern that you want to 247 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: have teams that have that confidence in their kickers going 248 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: into these and going into this part of the season, 249 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: into the playoffs. You feel good? Didn't you play with Venitary? 250 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: I did not have Venitary? You didn't okay Sskowsky? Okay, 251 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: I had Gotskowski, which is he's a pretty dag going 252 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: good too. Yeah, yeah, but yeah, I mean you you 253 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: want that confidence because you know these games are going 254 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: to be close. It's just it's playoff football is competitive, 255 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: it's fast, it's furious, and it usually comes down to 256 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: a driver or two. And you want the confidence knowing that, hey, 257 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: if as long as I can get to that forty 258 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: yard line we had, we can put points on the board. 259 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: And I don't think that that Dallas Nation has that 260 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: confidence right now and their kicker. I mean we lost 261 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: by how much? Three? Three? And he missed how many kicks? One? Yep, 262 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: it's exactly. You're exactly right, leaving points on the board. 263 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: It's why you lost Week one against Tampa Bay as well. 264 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: I mean he left points on the board. He lost 265 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: by two. I mean that's just plain and simple. That's 266 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: something that's cut and dry. You could say the same 267 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 1: thing for the interception from Jay Ran Kurs would to 268 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: knock three points off the board, but that's not as 269 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: cut and dry as literally kicking in and having three 270 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: points or not having three d J. So having that 271 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: that sort of security would be nice in a kicker. 272 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: But that's also why NFL kickers stick around for so 273 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: long if they are automatic, and for the most part, 274 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: Greg's urline has been automatic throughout his career. Yeah, I 275 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: wouldn't necessarily say he's been that. At least this year 276 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: he's been good. He hasn't been automatic. There's a difference. 277 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: What do you call it? What have you done for 278 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: me lately? League? That is? And I want to go 279 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: back to the penalties that you had. I saw this 280 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: this stat from Jeff Cavanaugh actually on Twitter, and he 281 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: said Cowboys first four drives driving stalled after a holding 282 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: call from Tyrant driving, then stalled after beatish false start. 283 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: Dak then had that miss over the top to Cooper, 284 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: drive stalled, and then Lyell was a hold I mean 285 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: stalled that drive as well, and then the touchdown drive 286 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: on the last one. Whether it didn't have any penalties 287 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: in the first half, So that's I mean, that's about it. 288 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: Penalty wise, Where does this Where does that come from? 289 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: And I asked you this. I believe I'm the postgame show, 290 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: but where do you Where does that start? Does that 291 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: start with the coaching status? To start with personnel? It's coaching. 292 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think most problems started with the coaching 293 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: staff and again as being being able to position your 294 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: guys to be in the best spot possible to handle 295 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: their assignments correctly without being compromised. And I think what 296 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: happened this past game was a lot of guys were 297 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: positionally compromised um and kind of put in bad situations 298 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: to where the recourse is gonna be holding, right, you're 299 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: gonna end up holding, You're gonna end up getting these penalties. 300 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: Not pre snap penalties, that's something totally different. But when 301 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: it comes to these holding penalties though, that was an issue. 302 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: When you look at the defensive side of the ball 303 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: and you look at you know, the special teams national right, 304 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: that's face guarding, right, some of those things that I mean, 305 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: it's just blatant plays. And that's why I don't allow 306 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: guys to just say, oh, we were playing two teams 307 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: in the BS you know, you didn't. You didn't put 308 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: yourself in the right position. You were Hey, Tyrn Smith, 309 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: you were holding right, your your feet were a little slow, right, 310 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: you just got back. We get it. But it was 311 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: a holding right lyle called us holding right. Be honest, 312 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: you're out of position right, Your leverage is bad. All 313 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: these all these guys that were that had blatant penalties. 314 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: You can't point the finger, ask somebody else and say hey, 315 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: whoa me? And that's and that's kind of where I 316 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: come out with that. You want toss it? Yeah, Rob, 317 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: what you got on that? I totally agree. It's probably 318 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: not a popular opinion among Cowboys Nation. But I just 319 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: watching that game, and I watched it on TV as well, 320 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: and like I didn't I didn't get the sense that 321 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: the officiating was reminiscent of Thanksgiving, where it was just 322 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: like my goodness, you know, like the game moved along. 323 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: I know, Mike McCarthy, I know yesterday said herky jerky 324 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: about ten times. Yeah, the penalty stall drives. I mean, 325 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about it. But I do think Isaiah's right, 326 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: like there was there were some clear calls that I 327 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: don't think you can debate those that look they missed, 328 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: they missed the fumble at the end. That was a 329 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 1: huge miss, no question about it. But again I said 330 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: this yesterday. They have been one of the leading penalized 331 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: teams in the league this year. It's been a problem, 332 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: and it's not just the referees. It's something they've got 333 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: to correct. One more thing on zero line. Jerry was 334 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: on the fan this morning and said he was asked 335 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: about his miss in the game and said, I think 336 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 1: the most important part of a kicker is consistency, and 337 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: it's not consistently missing. And that was the end of 338 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: So they need more from Greg's airline. But you know what, 339 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: at this point the season, like, who's a better option 340 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: right now? The guy's been the league for ten years. 341 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: You just want him to turn it around in playoff time. 342 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: You should see the reaction from Isaiah in studio right now. 343 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: That's not just the general manager, that's the owner. That's 344 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: that's a hot seat. Yeah statement right then, Yeah, kind 345 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: of reminder. Did you see what Mike Zimmer said about 346 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: Kellen mon after So, Yeah, that was that was harsh. 347 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: It was savage see him every day. That hurt me. 348 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: That hurt me personally. Oh yeah, m kellen mon, that's 349 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: my guy. Yeah. Yeah. Basically they lost thirty seven to 350 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 1: ten because Man had to start in front of Kirk Cousins. 351 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: I don't think Kirk Cousins could have saved them in 352 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: this game anyways. But they asked the reporter asked Mike Himmer, uh, 353 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 1: would you like to see a wilk at Kelly mom 354 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: next week? And he goes not particularly. They were like 355 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 1: wait why not? And he was like, I see him 356 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: every day. Damn yeah, that's every day after this week, right, 357 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: Man's that was tough. It was um, but just picking like, 358 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: I got a different view than you guys about the 359 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: whole game and the officials and all of that. I 360 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: just feel like, look, if you play football long enough, 361 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: you know that they could call holding on every play. Okay, 362 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: you could call leading with the helmet on every play, 363 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 1: and there are some obviously, you know, holding it doesn't 364 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,439 Speaker 1: always have to be egregious, just like PI, you know, 365 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: not getting your head turned around. It's it's all subjective 366 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: to what the referees are seeing where the ball is. 367 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: I mean, there was some there was a Mark Cooper 368 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: in the end zone where it was clearly a PI 369 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: that didn't get called the situations like that where these 370 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: guys are giving it their all for one hour and 371 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: they come back and they've played this game and they 372 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 1: they've been in situations where they've seen that particular play 373 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: be called has pass interference and they don't get it. 374 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: That I just said talked about the defensive lineman holding 375 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: the offensive lineman up. That holding call isn't called the 376 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: one on Lael Collins dog. They have been worse holding 377 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 1: penalties called in the league. And that was like, you know, 378 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: you just did one to ten, that dude, that was 379 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: a one, a negative three, you know, but they call 380 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: it anyway. And and what it does is it's stemings 381 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: where your drive and it makes it takes a third 382 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: and short now to a third and long, and it 383 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: takes you out of position. They have legitimate gripes, as 384 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: does everybody that say, you look, you can't be pissed 385 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: off about where what the referees did, but there's a 386 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: point in the game where you look at it and 387 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 1: you go with them. We go back to what Rob 388 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: was talking about in the Las Vegas game, where you've 389 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: seen this thing cost you a game and penalties being called, 390 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: and then it always seems to go against you. So 391 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: that's just frustration boiling over from these guys. Yeah, yeah, 392 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't disagree real quick, like sorry, go ahead, 393 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: I there, sorry you good b. I was gonna piggyback 394 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: on what heck said. I think there's another game too 395 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: that they won, the Patriots game, where it was like, man, 396 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: nothing's going their way with some of the calls and 397 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: and it again, there's no conspiracy here, but I understand 398 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: why players get frustrated because I think that's probably three 399 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: games now where they're like, God, can we catch a break? 400 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: But the bottom line is like, ultimately, you gotta play 401 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: well enough to take it out of the officials hands. 402 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: And that's all I was saying about, you know. And 403 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: I think, as I said a postgame, like, if you 404 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: don't think yourself a hole early in the game, you 405 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about the reps being human and 406 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: missing a call late. That's all. This is not who's 407 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 1: the Saints playing a couple of years ago in the playoffs? Rams? Yeah, 408 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: Like it's not that that level of you know, like 409 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: it's not like that that that was blatant, like come on, 410 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: like what the heck? Like you just cost us the 411 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: ability to go to the dog on Jeff, you know, yep, 412 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 1: it's not that level. This is like you said, heck, 413 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: play you could throw a flag on every play. You 414 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: literally can throw a flag on every play. Referees are 415 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: calling what they see. The penalties are pretty dog on 416 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: even you know, it's just that it just you didn't 417 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: come out the victor. That's what the that's what the 418 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: issue is. You didn't come out the victor. Nobody's complaining 419 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: about the referees in the Washington game or the New 420 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: Orleans game and stuff like that. And I know that's 421 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: that's a little tongue in cheek. Don't worry, Cowboys Nation. 422 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm not necessarily saying that's an award statement, but it's true. 423 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: If you don't put yourself in that position, it's a 424 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: non topic going into Week seventeen or Week eighteen, you 425 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: don't have to have this conversation. But certainly it's something. 426 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: If you're the most penalized team in the league. And 427 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: I said this earlier in the year, if you're the 428 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: most penalized team in the league, that's got to be 429 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: for a reason. There's something there. It's it's not a 430 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: one week at a time. Deal is every week there 431 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: is something going on.

That's a great yes, don't the vaccination 483 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: car Yeah, don't hold it, don't yeah, do it all? 484 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: Get it done. That's funny. He goes, he gole test 485 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 1: that spring the first thing to go. That's somebody can 486 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: put it. Oh. Then all right, second segment here, Talking Cowboys. 487 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: We've got some Twitter questions to answer to Twitter day, 488 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: and we're gonna start with Christian Paul. Really good question here. 489 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: I'll start with Rob on this one. What can the 490 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense do in the coaching staff do to help 491 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 1: the confusion for Dak Prescott on defensive pre snap coverages. 492 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: Is there something that he just needs to overcome due 493 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: to a lack of a run game. So it's kind 494 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: of two questions in one, but ultimately it's what do 495 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: you do to allow Dak to be more successful? Rob 496 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: Well Jerry was asked kind of that question this morning, 497 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: and he talked about the route running. I think he said, 498 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: you know, the route running can get better. I think 499 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: we've talked about the communication between Dak and the receivers. 500 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 1: I think that's probably something that can can continue to 501 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: get better. Look, I mean, I don't think this is 502 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: something Dak is now ever seen before, you know, I 503 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 1: think I think you kind of the fan kind of 504 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: answered his own question. I think the lack of the 505 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: run game has really made it difficult for Dak in 506 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: the passing game. I mean, I'm not absolving Dak of everything. 507 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: I mean I think they're Look, you go back and 508 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 1: there's miss throws that he made, especially early in the game. 509 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: But I think when they are totally one dimensional, it 510 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 1: allows the defense to do some of those things and 511 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: kind of dictate the flow of the game. And until 512 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,479 Speaker 1: they can get the run game going, whether it's just 513 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 1: hey getting better production or not having those penalties that 514 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: Heck's been alluding to that's wiping out some of those plays, 515 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: they have to get some some balance back in their offense. 516 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: And I'm not looking and I'm not just looking towards 517 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,239 Speaker 1: the wild card game, because you know, if they can 518 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: get past that game, you're probably going to Green Bay 519 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be twenty degrees or snowing or something, 520 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 1: and you have to be able to run the football. 521 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: So even beyond if they're able to get past the 522 00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: first round, at some point, the run game has to 523 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: get going. Yeah, I think that with all of that, 524 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 1: what we've lost is our physicality at the line of scrimmage. 525 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,199 Speaker 1: And when you when teams come into a game and 526 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: they recognize that you're gonna we can easily get you 527 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 1: out of your running back package by being physical what 528 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: you've then hell, we win. Um dan Quinn has definitely 529 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: almost gotten Defensive Coordinator of the Year because he's made 530 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: forced teams to become one dimensional. Um doubts it is 531 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: just like you. You talked about this yesterday and you 532 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: really made a valid point about Kellen Moore's inability to 533 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: stay with the running game. The first opportunity to get 534 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: out of the running game, he out of there. And 535 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: so this is a situation where like like he is 536 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: talking about where you're gonna need the running game in situations, 537 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: especially when you know, we talk about football so much 538 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: from offenses, defenses, and special teams, but we don't talk 539 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: about the elements. And now you're getting into that point 540 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: where hey, if you go to Green Bay and it's 541 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: two degrees, hey man, that ball don't don't float the 542 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: same in two degree weather, so you're gonna have to 543 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,399 Speaker 1: run it in They definitely have a running back that 544 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: can does green Bay that can two running backs that 545 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: can run it. Agreed on both points. You guys did 546 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: a great job raw Pe to your point. You know, Dak, 547 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: I don't think Dak's confused. I think Dak is perfectly 548 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: fine at the line of scrimmage. But I think that 549 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: Kella Moore has to put him in better situations to 550 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: be able to easily audible out of certain place. Right, 551 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: give yourself a two A two play. Look, they need 552 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: to go back and look at the analytics of what 553 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: it is, based upon their personnel, based upon their formation. 554 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,679 Speaker 1: Give dak a two play a call, going to the huddle, 555 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: call and walk up to the line of scrimmage. If 556 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: play A looks good, roll with it. If not, alert, alert, 557 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: We're on to the second player. We're not having to 558 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: go up there a change a bunch of different protections. 559 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: You have a good idea of what's being presented. I 560 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: mean that takes a lot of data, a lot of research. 561 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: So and to the other point that you made, you 562 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: know the running game teams, teams aren't. We're not. We're 563 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: not able to run the ball right now. And to 564 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: your point, heck, team, when's the last time teams feared 565 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: this office a line? They don't It's been a minute. 566 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: There's been a minute. Probably the New England game, right, 567 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: didn't fear them? Fear at one point in time, this 568 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: offensive line was feared. Yeah, it wouldn't be that game, 569 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: for sure. It wouldn't be twenty twenty one. No, it's 570 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: not twenty twenty one, all right, This offensive line is 571 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,479 Speaker 1: no longer feared. So when you don't fear an offensive 572 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: line and their ability to move you off the line 573 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, what do you do? Apply pressure pressure, burst pipes. 574 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: So that is what you're starting to see right now 575 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 1: with the Dallas Cowboys. It's teams don't respect this offensive line. 576 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: So you gotta get that nasty back. You have to 577 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: get that that dog back, and they have to re 578 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: establish their intensity level at the line of scrimmage and 579 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: start moving some guys off the ball. Because when a 580 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: team decides, when we talked about this yesterday, when the 581 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: team decides to walk all their guys up to the 582 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, you should be it should be a 583 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: dog on magic school bus. They should just be moving 584 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: those guys back five yards deep or at least popping 585 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: open one scene right and so that one guy can 586 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: get loose. It's kind of like when Heckman does push 587 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: ups when it tries to wear bututting up shirt. It 588 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: doesn't work because that top buddy, don't that tap? Will 589 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: you just provide you just provide a magic school bus 590 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: reference in Heckma's top button reference in the same sentence, 591 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: did you really just do that combination? I will have 592 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: you know that my top button is button a lot easier. 593 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: Although I can't breathe now, No, it's popping off for 594 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: a different Oh man, that's crazy, all right. Kind of 595 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: along the same lines, though, I'm trying to get this 596 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: match of school bus back on track. John John asked, 597 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: kind of along the same lines, but it's more so 598 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: towards the coaching. Why not established the run early in 599 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: the first even if it's not quote unquote working, keep 600 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: at it by the third and the fourth it's sure 601 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: to be working effectively, same situation, why not get Coop 602 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: involved early? Amari Cooper stick with it if it's not 603 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: working early, And he said, as his example, look at 604 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: Green Bay against Minnesota on Sunday night football, So kind 605 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: of along those same lines, why not are they abandoning 606 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: the run too early? Yeah, and look it, Rob, I've 607 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: already said it, and Rob backed it up before you know. 608 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: It's just those penalties that negate those long runs. You're 609 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: looking at over one hundred yards of rushing if you 610 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: get those penalties back, right, But look, if it's a 611 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: fifth we all be drunk. And I'm not trying to 612 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: be drunk at nine o'clock in the morning. I just 613 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: want as I am. I just look, I just feel 614 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: like it's as far as the game playing is concerned 615 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: going into the playoffs. We've got to find a way 616 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: to get our playmakers the ball. That's just what it 617 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: is right now. Amari Cooper isn't being He isn't. He 618 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: hasn't been highlighted in our offense, and he just seems 619 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: like a cog in the wheel. But he ain't. He's 620 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: a difference maker out there. So its Cede Lamb and 621 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: you heard him after the game of Mark Cooper talks 622 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: about how the communication needs to be better. I don't 623 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: know if that was an indictment on where they are offensively. 624 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: Maybe they're not getting enough time time to be together 625 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: to talk about these things. But I see it seems 626 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: like to me this is too late in the season 627 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: to you know. And I guess communication can always be 628 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: better on both ends. But that kind of threw me 629 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: off that come in about communication from Amara Cooper. Yeah, 630 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: he slid that up in there. And if the thing 631 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: is the reality is Cowboys Nation. Kelly Moore doesn't want 632 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: to run the ball. That it's not it's not a 633 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: natural instinct for him to call a run play. He 634 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: wants where does he come from? Passing freaking passing background. 635 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: He wants to throw the ball. There's no question about that. 636 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: Right air raid offense. He wants to throw it around, 637 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: so it's not a bad thing. He runs the ball 638 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: because he has to run the ball. But when he 639 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: comes down to him being in the groove of things, 640 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: he's going to call a pass. And that's the end. 641 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: If there's no if there's no resemblance of a consistent 642 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: running game at all, and there's no control the line 643 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, what is he going to revert back to 644 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: throwing the ball? That's his comfort zone. So that's the reality. 645 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 1: People acknowledge that. And then additionally, when did we force 646 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: feed Amari Cooper? What did it for us for Dallas 647 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: and force feed to Marit coup for him to say 648 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: that he's frustrated for him to come out publicly and say, 649 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: I'm frustrated one point one million dollars a game. You're 650 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: throwing the ball at me four times per game until 651 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: I complain about it, and then I get it four 652 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: times in a first drive. But what happens to the 653 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: next game goes back away, goes right back away. So 654 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: it's not natural for Keller Moore to run the balls. 655 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: Not natural for Keller Moore to force feed his playmakers. 656 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: He has to make these changes. This is not solely 657 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: on Dak. This is a killer Moore issue. I mean, 658 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: earlier in the season, the conversation was that Dak Prescott 659 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: was the extension of the coaching staff. Where has that gone, Rob, 660 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: Because that's my biggest thing is early in the year, 661 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 1: it was it was Dak Prescott would trot out on 662 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: the field and everything was clicking so seamlessly that you 663 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: felt like Kellen Moore was just in his head all 664 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: the time. I mean, I mean, of course they have 665 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: the connection and whatever, the communication, but you felt like 666 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: there was just an extension of the coaching staff on 667 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: the field and Dak Prescott. So I still think there's 668 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: got to be blame considered for both sides. Well, yeah, 669 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 1: for sure. And I mean I think you go all 670 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: the way back to the Denver game, and that's kind 671 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: of where you saw a shift in terms of defenses 672 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: adjusting to what they were doing well early in the season. 673 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: And so you've got it's a chess game. You've got 674 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:19,760 Speaker 1: to be able to counter that. We've seen them counter 675 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: that at times in matchups down the stretch, these last 676 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: eight games, whatever other times they haven't, and they didn't. 677 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: They didn't adjust well enough to what what Arizona was 678 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: doing on Sunday. And one more thing on the run 679 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: game is is you know, is is there enough confidence 680 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: that they can win the line of scrimmage like you 681 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: guys mentioned and just and pounded up between the tackles. 682 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: I think at some point you just have to keep trying. 683 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,439 Speaker 1: But I think, you know, sometimes sometimes Kellen will try 684 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: to and we've talked about this going all the way 685 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 1: back to the Tampa game and the opener. It's kind 686 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: of a surrogate running game where he'll try to do, 687 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: you know, a quick screen game, quick game stuff to 688 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:56,879 Speaker 1: the outside and that kind of serves as a quote 689 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: unquote run and they try to do that early in 690 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: the game and Buddha Baker almost took it to the house. 691 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 1: I mean he read that play to CD so quickly 692 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: and so that you know that that wasn't going well 693 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: for him and all those backs to the line of scrimmage, 694 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 1: I mean, Arizona was just everywhere. So give them credit 695 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 1: for being around the football a ton in that game Sunday. Yeah, 696 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 1: and have to give them credit. And that was my 697 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: point that I was gonna make Rob was was. You know, 698 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 1: they did a really good job at Van Josephine as 699 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,800 Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator. He's one of the best in the league. 700 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,799 Speaker 1: And these guys watch a ton of film on you. 701 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: They study your tendencies to death. They know what you 702 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,880 Speaker 1: want to do. When Buddha Baker saw Connor McGovern go 703 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: out there and cover he man, he he didn't even 704 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: think about it. I don't even know if he was 705 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: supposed to be in the two safety eye, but as 706 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: soon as he saw him go over there, three automatically 707 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: came that way. And that's one of those plays I'm 708 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 1: talking about. Throw that whole play away. Don't use that 709 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: one again. But you know, I think we talked about 710 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: without giving credence to the offensive line shuffles and things 711 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: like that, where the running game hadn't got gone. We 712 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: see what kind of success that can have once he 713 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,439 Speaker 1: has a running game that is going. You talk about 714 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 1: him being an extension of the coaching staff and the 715 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: way he is, you know, he's seeing things on the 716 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: field and they've given him autonomy to be able to say, hey, 717 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 1: you know what, I don't like that play kill, kill kill. 718 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with something different. So, look, you can't 719 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: you can't have it both ways. You still got to 720 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: allow your playmaker and the guy that you've paid a 721 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: ton of money to be the guy that he is. 722 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: You gotta still allow him to be the leader of 723 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 1: your offense. And it's got to start this week, I 724 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: think against Philadelphia, right because they got to find a 725 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,919 Speaker 1: way to get back in rhythm. And I mean, like 726 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,839 Speaker 1: Isaiah said in the first segment, whether that's the first quarter, 727 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 1: second quarter, third quarter, if it takes to the fourth quarter, 728 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: it takes to the fourth quarter, and you gotta get 729 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: a rhythm back with Dak Prescott at this offense and 730 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,840 Speaker 1: everything in between. When we come back, we'll answer a 731 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: couple more Twitter questions, including one very fiery one.

You have to choose your opponent. 781 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: Is it going to be a lion, a grizzly bear, 782 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 1: or a silverback gorilla?

And I chose a grizzly bear. 789 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: I chose a gorilla. Rob chose a lion. I've chosen 790 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 1: he is sound right? Chose a lion too? Yeah he did? Yeah, yeah, No, 791 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 1: everybody knows. I'm not going in with the bear there. 792 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,879 Speaker 1: It's just not gonna happen. Um. And I'm not gonna 793 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,800 Speaker 1: chose for the same reason, just because I want a 794 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: quick death. She's done. I want to live.

This is from Zesty, and this is a 805 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 1: Zesty question. Yeah, um, do we have the worst blocking 806 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,839 Speaker 1: tight ends in the league? Why does Kellen Moore cant 807 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 1: then you rely on them to block in the run game? Yeah, 808 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 1: Like I said, man Chandler Jones was a problem for Dalton. Uh, 809 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: we can't. We can't do that again. But can you 810 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: really truthfully expect him to actually hold his ground against him? 811 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,320 Speaker 1: I mean one of the best wrests. Look on the 812 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 1: one that that, especially when he got to Zeke on 813 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,399 Speaker 1: the back side, like there was plenty of opportunity there, 814 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: I mean all we needed. It wasn't one of those 815 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: things where Dalton needed to just like Pancake block him. 816 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 1: He just needed to hold up, just be there, just 817 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 1: be there and kind of like the first half of 818 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 1: the season. Oh God, Rob, what you got man? I 819 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 1: say something wrong? No, Zesty what you got? Married? Zesty? 820 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 1: Did y'all did? Y'all? See Dan Orlovsky just get killed 821 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 1: on Twitter for saying that, you know, part of their 822 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 1: problem is Blake Jarwin's been out and and he's been 823 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 1: the key to their blocking game. This It's like Dan, 824 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 1: that's that's not right. Not Blake's strength. Look, yeah they are. 825 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 1: They're both guys. I mean, look that passing game is 826 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,800 Speaker 1: both their strength. And by the way, that there is 827 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: good news that Blake Jarwine is on his way back, 828 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:18,759 Speaker 1: maybe not this week, but maybe in time for the playoffs. Um, 829 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 1: I don't know about the worst because I can't. I 830 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: haven't been able to analyze the rest of the tight 831 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,320 Speaker 1: ends in the league. But I can say that the effort. 832 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 1: I can say that the effort that shows gave him 833 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 1: the first portion of the season. Maybe I've been the 834 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: first half. Maybe if I know for sure the first 835 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:33,400 Speaker 1: quarter of the season he was, he was giving a 836 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,719 Speaker 1: lot of effort. Now was he always the best. How No, 837 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 1: he's not. That's not his strength. But again, all you 838 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:41,919 Speaker 1: can do is ask for somebody's best. I don't feel 839 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: that same energy in the second half of the season, 840 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: and obviously Kellen Moore is still calling plays as if 841 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: he's taken that same approach that he did early in 842 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: the season and is ineffective. Yeah, it just hasn't been 843 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: working the same way. Final question though, before we wrap 844 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,320 Speaker 1: up here on talking Cowboys. Do you think the injury 845 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: to Michael Gallup potentially open the door for him to 846 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 1: return to the Cowboys next season? And I mean I 847 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: tweeted this out yesterday just rewatching the game. It makes 848 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,320 Speaker 1: me sick every time you think about it for Michael Gallup, 849 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: for the person, the player, the leader, the locker room presence, 850 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 1: the weapon on the field. I mean, everything is gonna 851 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: be missed about Michael Gallup. And of course with it 852 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 1: being in a contract year, it makes it that much worse. 853 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: So Rob, I'll ask you on this one because you're 854 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: usually our contract expert, but do you think that this 855 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 1: is an open of the door, opening of the door 856 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 1: for him to come back? I know they've they've done 857 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: that in the past. One of the guys who's on 858 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 1: a lot of our shows. Barry Church had a similar 859 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,360 Speaker 1: situation during his contract year. But do you think this 860 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 1: could potentially see Michael Gallup return once he's healthy. That's 861 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 1: a great question. I don't know that. I mean, I 862 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 1: think I think Ian Rappaport made a good point yesterday 863 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: when he said there's a couple of guys in the 864 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: league that have had acls and still gotten there. You 865 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: know they're due in terms of market value on a 866 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 1: new track. That's Bud Dupree and Alan Robinson. So you 867 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 1: know you hope that from Michael. Honestly, I mean, it 868 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 1: just sucks it happens, and it happens this late in 869 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 1: the season. I know the Cowboys want him back. I 870 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 1: think it was always going to be a challenge from 871 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 1: a salary cap perspective, and so does that change in 872 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: terms of in terms of salary, It's just gonna have 873 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: to be remains to be seen. The one thing I 874 00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 1: do want to say is not only did he make 875 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 1: that incredible catch, as he felt a pop before as 876 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: he was going up to make the play, all you 877 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:31,920 Speaker 1: need to know about Michael Gallup is watching his reaction 878 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,839 Speaker 1: as he went to the locker room with Britt Brown 879 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 1: after the injury, smile on his face. His attitude is 880 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,640 Speaker 1: that's why, that's why the whole team loves him. That's 881 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,320 Speaker 1: why he's such a great teammate, his attitude and everything, 882 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 1: and so he's brought that to this team, even more 883 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 1: so than his talent level. So you hope he gets 884 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,839 Speaker 1: back and makes full recovery, and I'm sure he will. Yeah, 885 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: And you just see the love that his teammates have 886 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 1: for him, you know, Cowboy Nation has for him where 887 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 1: he was drafted from Colorado State and everything that he's 888 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: done so far. Unfortunately, this is a business and the 889 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 1: business aspects part of it is gonna take over in 890 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: the offseason, and just to keep it real with you, 891 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 1: I mean, when it comes down to the salary cap 892 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 1: and where we are right now, this team is gonna 893 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 1: not It's gonna be some some moves being made all around. 894 00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: So you know, obviously you'd like to have Mike g back, 895 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,800 Speaker 1: and especially looking at the beginning of the season and 896 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 1: what him CD and Amark Cooper we're gonna do together. 897 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 1: It just sucks to see him go out at this point, 898 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: especially with the Cowboys looking to make a run in 899 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Yeah, you hate it for him, and it's 900 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 1: it sucks. It's it goes into the injuries, the business 901 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 1: and it's it's all awful. And of course, like Mike 902 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 1: or like Rob said, we hope the best for Michael Gallup. 903 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: We hope he gets the big contract. We would love 904 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: for it to be with a star on the side 905 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 1: of his helmet again. But like you said, with the 906 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: salary cap and some of the stuff that's coming up 907 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 1: this offseason, there's gonna be a lot of conversation and 908 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 1: decisions to be had. But that's gonna do it for 909 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,799 Speaker 1: us here on Talking Cowboys.
