As those that may know, going into 20 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: the bye week, we had a lot of expectations. There 21 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 2: were a lot of things on the mind of Cowboys 22 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: fans whenever. 23 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 3: It came to this football team. 24 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 2: And it came to winning games and getting back to 25 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 2: five hundred and trying to write the ship. When it 26 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 2: came to the game that we all love, and we 27 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 2: all know, the expectations of the bye week turned very quickly, 28 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: and they turned very suddenly on Wednesday. Man, it's tough 29 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: to talk about. This is the first time that we've 30 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: been on the mics since the passing of Marshawn Neeland 31 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 2: at twenty four years old here in Frisco, just under 32 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: a week ago. And I know we've each kind of 33 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: done our own thing over the bye week. We've each 34 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 2: had our moments. I know I've shared some with with 35 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 2: my family and with my friends, and we've had phone 36 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 2: calls and text messages, and you check on those loved 37 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: ones around you, and you continuously pour into those because 38 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: of something like this that sends such a devastating reminder 39 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: of how fragile life is and how much those around 40 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: you you care about. And I do want to talk 41 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 2: about it because I think it is something that needs 42 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 2: to be talked about, and I think it's something that 43 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: needs to be shared among those that were within the building. 44 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 2: And I know we've heard stories and opinions on the 45 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: whole thing. Whether whatever it may be, you've heard about 46 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 2: it by now, I think if you're a Cowboys fan, 47 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: But to lose Marshawn Neelan the way that he did 48 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,679 Speaker 2: pass away this past week was devastating to the entire organization. 49 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: Whether you a media member, whether you're a player, a coach, 50 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: a staff member, it doesn't matter. It was pretty devastating 51 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: even to the fans. And I've seen a lot of 52 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 2: the love poured out from the fans this past week. 53 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: But I want to open the floor. 54 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: I'm going to start with you, Patrick, because I know 55 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 2: you were very close with with Marshawn, and I mean 56 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 2: you and I were here the weekend he was drafted 57 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: and we were both really excited about it coming out 58 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 2: of Western Michigan, and and I know you guys had 59 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: quite the relationship as well. 60 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 3: But I'd like to open the floor for whatever you 61 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 3: have to say. You want to go the other way, 62 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: I'll start with you, Tommy. 63 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know it's it's a it's devastating. I think 64 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 5: it brings you back to earth a little bit. When 65 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 5: when when things like this happen. Unfortunately, and obviously thought 66 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 5: some prayers to Marshawn's family, his girlfriend Katalina. 67 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 6: You know, I've only been. 68 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 5: Here for about a year and a half, so I 69 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 5: didn't really know Marshawn all too well. But every time 70 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 5: we spoke to him, he was a pleasure to speak to, 71 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 5: always willing to speak. Probably didn't like the media as 72 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 5: much as some other guys in terms of going and 73 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 5: talking to him, but he was always very kind and 74 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 5: gracious with his time, and you could tell the he 75 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 5: was respected by his teammates and appreciated by his teammates. 76 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 5: Twenty four years old, man, that's it's a tough pill 77 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 5: to swallow. I mean, he's two years older than me, 78 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 5: and so it's I hope that this served, as you know, 79 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 5: for everybody to kind of check on your loved ones. 80 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 5: One phone call, one text. You don't know how long 81 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 5: that can go, how much of a ways that can go. 82 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 5: You never know what somebody's going through. You never know 83 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 5: what people are going through. So it's always it's always 84 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 5: good to lean on the side of just treat everybody 85 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 5: with respect because even if somebody's you know, not the 86 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 5: best person here, might just be having a. 87 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 6: Rough day, and at the end of the. 88 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 5: Day, it's okay not to be okay, Yeah, and it's 89 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 5: okay to talk about not being okay.

He was just 108 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 7: a genuine kid. I mean, he was a kid right 109 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 7: twenty four years old. So to hear all of that 110 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 7: over the weekend and. 111 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: Since his tragic passing. 112 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 7: It just it echoes like you're saying, you know, just 113 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 7: checking on everybody in life and being able to be 114 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 7: there for your friends no matter what your your family. Uh, 115 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 7: that's tough, man. And one thing that I don't want 116 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 7: for this to kind of lead to is people saying, 117 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 7: you know, the expectations of the team going forward and 118 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 7: oh this should light a fire.

I think you know better at home. Uh, 121 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 7: this is something, This is something that is incalculable as 122 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 7: far as a loss goes to those guys in the 123 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 7: locker room and people around the building that knew him. 124 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 7: And not to say that you know that that was 125 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 7: me at all, but just seeing how it affected everybody 126 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 7: is uh. I mean we're still this is our first 127 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 7: time basically in the office since that happened. 128 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 3: So yeah, it's Uh, it's tough. 129 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 7: There are a lot of people in this room, even 130 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 7: that you know, had personal relationships with him. That's tough 131 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 7: to see other people will go through that. The only 132 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 7: thing that I can echo right now is just to 133 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 7: check on your friends, always be willing to have an 134 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 7: open year to that, and toxic masculinity always kind of 135 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 7: gets in the way sometimes of us opening up to 136 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 7: each other and checking on your friends once in a while, 137 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 7: just to make sure you know everything's going okay.

The message that 146 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 9: I put out on Twitter on x last night.

That's the 156 00:08:54,360 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 9: kind of light that he put into the world. 157 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 8: Give me a second. 158 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 9: So that's the light that's now gone from the world. 159 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 9: I have so much to say. Shouts out to. 160 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 8: My wife. 161 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 9: She really helped me navigate as best she could because 162 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 9: in the situation like this, I have so many questions. 163 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 8: And you know, let me also say. 164 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 9: Condolences isn't isn't a word that qualifies for what I 165 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 9: feel for his family and in Catalina. I wish there 166 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 9: was more I could say. I wish there was more 167 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 9: could have done. But that young man was like a 168 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 9: little brother to me. You guys, know, everybody who uh 169 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 9: who has access to the locker room after nearly every practice, 170 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,719 Speaker 9: even if it's just for a couple of minutes at 171 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 9: a time, who am I talking to? 172 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 8: Who's locker am I? 173 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 9: Or if I'm standing in the middle of the locker 174 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 9: room just kind of surveying, who comes up to me. 175 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 8: And starts talking. 176 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 9: And I mean we've talked about things here at work, 177 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 9: we talked about things outside of work. You know, so 178 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 9: many common interests that I swear he just became a 179 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 9: younger brother to me. So this hits on so many levels. 180 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 9: But what I will say is what I can say 181 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 9: as I just have words just and feelings just jumbled 182 00:10:59,000 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 9: in my head. 183 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 8: I'm trying to saw through the mental health. 184 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 9: Anybody who knows me, or has known me, if even 185 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 9: a small period of time, knows how passionate I am 186 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 9: about mental health and mental health advocacy. And the added 187 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 9: layer to losing Marshaan is the fashion in which we 188 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 9: lost him. I plead with everyone if you need help. 189 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 9: I personally know how difficult it is. I sit here 190 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 9: as a and I've vertialized this before. I sit here 191 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 9: as a two time survivor of suicide attempts. I know 192 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 9: how difficult it is, especially as a man, especially as 193 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 9: a man of color, to just say, can I talk 194 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 9: to you for a second, do you have a moment? 195 00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 8: I know how hard that is. 196 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 9: But I can also will tell you from experience that 197 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 9: just saying that simple phrase can save your life, because 198 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 9: a lot of times it's just a matter of opening 199 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 9: the gate and then letting whatever comes out come out. 200 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 9: Don't sit with the demons. They will win. Don't fight 201 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 9: with him in the dark, they will win. The only 202 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 9: way to defeat the demons is to turn the light on. 203 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 9: That's the way to do it. I say the same 204 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 9: thing to every Cowboys player, everyone I see. One of 205 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 9: my favorite phrases to ask is you solid? And I'm 206 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 9: not asking that generically or performatively. I'm genuinely asking are 207 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 9: you solid? On any given day You're okay, That's my 208 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 9: way of saying, if you're not solid, let's talk about 209 00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 9: this real quick. Because as much as God tasks me 210 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 9: with carrying, one of the things I feel that I'm 211 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 9: here to do is to just try to help others 212 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 9: through things that I've been through myself. So, Marshaun, I 213 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 9: wish we could have talked more about your demons, but 214 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 9: in the end, just know that you will not be forgotten. 215 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 9: What occurred with you will serve as that much more 216 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 9: motivation for others like myself and other mental health advocates 217 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 9: to double, triple, quadruple down on their efforts to not 218 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 9: only their loved ones, because obviously, check on your loved ones, 219 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 9: especially the strong ones, the ones that never say anything 220 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 9: is wrong, trust me something's wrong sooner or later, but 221 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 9: also with strangers, those that you don't know, they're just 222 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 9: as important. Never know what someone is going through at 223 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 9: any given point in time, and your empathy should not 224 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 9: be halted by the fact that you don't know them. 225 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 8: Get to know them. If you can. So it's a 226 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 8: long winded way of. 227 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 9: Just saying, Marshawn, I'm blessed to be able to sit 228 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 9: here and tell you that I gave your roses when you. 229 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 8: Could smell them. 230 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 9: I told you I love you when you could hear it, 231 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 9: and his last words to me were, I see you later, Pat. 232 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 8: You will. 233 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 9: It'll be a while, though, because I got work to do, 234 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 9: and that work now includes making sure your legacy continues. 235 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 8: But I see you later, bro, Be at peace. 236 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 3: Love you, buddy. I know that was tough. 237 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 2: We talk about the family a little bit, and we 238 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 2: do it in a lighthearted way on talking, but this 239 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: is where the family turns into family and you guys 240 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 2: share these moments with us, and everybody grieves in different ways, 241 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 2: everybody deals with certain things in different ways whenever they 242 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: are here, and Marshawn is another example of that. I mean, 243 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 2: like all three of these guys said, I mean, he 244 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 2: was a light in the locker room. He always had 245 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 2: a smile on his face, always willing to joke and 246 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 2: talk and be around people. And of course, as much 247 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 2: as we're grieving on the media side, his team is 248 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 2: broken right now. 249 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 3: I mean, his team is broken. 250 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 2: Up about it, and I know this is the first 251 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 2: day Josh mentioned it that we're kind of back in 252 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: the building as staff members. It's also the first day 253 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 2: for the team. It's the first day for this organization 254 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 2: as a whole to come together. And I know there's 255 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 2: going to be talks and conversations about the staff members 256 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 2: and the coaching staff and the player side of how 257 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 2: to move on. 258 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 3: And it's not it's not easy. It's tough. 259 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 2: It really is, because he'll always be there, You'll always 260 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 2: think about him, and and as much as we do 261 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 2: sit up here and we talk about football, this is 262 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 2: bigger than the game of football, and it will always 263 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 2: be bigger than the game of football. 264 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 3: We miss Marshawn. We love you. 265 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 2: Rest easy, ninety four. It's it's it's gonna be a 266 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 2: long time. This one's gonna take a little bit.

Like we said in the opening segment, wasn't 392 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 2: the bye week that I think this team anticipated, but 393 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 2: still an opportunity to be around loved ones and be 394 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 2: around all. 395 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 3: Those that were close to them. This week. 396 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 2: I saw Dak went back to hot and Louisiana had 397 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 2: a field dedication for us with his high school, Dak 398 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 2: Prescott Field, Right, is it just Prescott Field or is 399 00:22:59,240 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 2: it Dak Prescott. 400 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 6: It's just Prescott Field. 401 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 3: It's still really cool, so pretty great. Yeah, yeah, that's 402 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 3: that's awesome. 403 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 2: But yeah he uh, he went out there with the 404 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 2: whole family, got the to see that, and there were 405 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 2: a lot of great social media clips about that, that that. 406 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,479 Speaker 3: He dealt with. Tommy, I'm gonna pass it to you 407 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 3: for some news and noteses. 408 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 2: Not a ton of movement over a week after the 409 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 2: trade deadline and a week off from football action. 410 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 5: Yeah really no, no, nothing particularly uh big new. I 411 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 5: think the last big things happened obviously. Logan Wilson, Quinn 412 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 5: Williams acquired in the trade. Lak Davis was waived and 413 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 5: then brought back on the practice squad. I remember he 414 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 5: came up to the active roster and was Dallas' RB 415 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 5: two in that last game against Arizona, replacing Jayden Blue. 416 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 5: So now he goes back to the practice squad. I 417 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 5: think they still have one elevation left for him. Correct 418 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 5: me if I'm wrong. Fellas like Lak Davis Davis, Yes, okay, 419 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 5: so they've got they've got one left for him if 420 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 5: that is still a competition for that run back to spot. 421 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 5: If memory serves me correct, I think you only got 422 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 5: one carry in that last game, So they don't they 423 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 5: They've they're leaning a lot on Javonte Williams. So whoever 424 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 5: is in that RB two spot probably won't get as 425 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 5: many touches as other second running backs around the league. 426 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 5: We'll get but something to watch and we'll see what 427 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 5: they decided to do against Vegas go hit. 428 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 7: I was gonna say, for anybody that's like curious why 429 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,120 Speaker 7: Malie Davis is getting the reps over a Jaydon Blue, 430 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 7: I would argue. 431 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 3: It's past protection. 432 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 7: I think that's something that you can knock on Jayden 433 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 7: Blue so far in his reps that you've seen so 434 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,160 Speaker 7: far this year. That's something that the coaches are really 435 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 7: emphasizing as far as technique. Why technique whise goes for 436 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 7: Jaydon Blue Whenever that is inconsistent, I think that's when 437 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 7: the coaches are like, all right, let's peel it back, man, 438 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 7: Like you got to remain focused on this aspect of 439 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 7: your game as well as carrying. And while he was 440 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 7: doing he had a few carries, nothing explosive. Quite yet 441 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 7: nothing that you would expect to see out of Jane Blue. 442 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 7: You did expect to see a fumble that did happen, 443 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 7: and that's one of the knocks that you've had on 444 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 7: Jaden Blue. But for me, the reason why he's not 445 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 7: getting those touches is because of the past protection aspect. 446 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 9: I feel like, as the Cowboys try to figure out 447 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 9: their RB two situation, because obviously they have their bellcout 448 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 9: and Javonte like we like, we all know my opinion, 449 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 9: it's time to inject Phil Maffa into the conversation. I 450 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 9: don't know exactly where he is in his recovery with 451 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 9: the shoulder, but we're having this conversation on what November tenth, they. 452 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 2: Haven't activated his one day window hasn't been at if 453 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 2: that's just kind of a red shirt thing he was 454 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 2: dealing with something early. They put him on IR and 455 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: they're saying, let's let's get you through the season, red 456 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 2: shirt almost and then yeah, let's hit this thing again 457 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: next year and see what happened. 458 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 9: I hope it's not something that's severe that requires a 459 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,239 Speaker 9: red shirt. Yeah, especially in the situation where you know, 460 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 9: like we're sitting here talking about so you give Jayden 461 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 9: Blue his shot. He's inactive, he's inactive. He's inactive, he's active. 462 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 9: He's active, he's active, he's an active. Elie Davis is elevated, elevated, 463 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 9: signed to the active roster, waved back on the practice squad. 464 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 9: You're trying to figure all of this stuff out, and 465 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 9: there's this variable in Phil MafA that you haven't test 466 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 9: driven yet. So my simple point is, if Phil MafA 467 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 9: is ready for his twenty one day practice wino to 468 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 9: be activated strategically, I don't see a reason to not 469 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 9: do so. I will say this, I'm not sure because 470 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 9: this is a new situation for me as far as 471 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,959 Speaker 9: covering the team with the loss that we all had 472 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 9: with Marshawn, So not sure how that's supposed to go. 473 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 9: But I will say I hope that they carry fifty 474 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 9: two men for the rest of the season. I don't 475 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,919 Speaker 9: want them to carry fifty three. I want them to 476 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 9: figure out how to get around there. 477 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 8: I get it, I get it. 478 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 9: But if you're talk about honoring someone, that that's how 479 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 9: you would honor him, I don't you know, But that. 480 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 3: Being something I haven't even thought about. 481 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 8: Yeah I would. 482 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 9: I think the highest way for them to be able 483 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 9: to honor him outside of some more you know, just 484 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 9: celebration of life type things. Is just carry fifty two 485 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 9: and leave the fifty third spot vacant because that's Marshawn seat. 486 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 9: Now that being said, work around that and figure out 487 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 9: if film off is is ready for practice. 488 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 8: I think you. 489 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 9: Return him so that you can have a more complete 490 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 9: answer to the question of RB two, not just this year, 491 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 9: but you're dynamic for twenty twenty six as well, because 492 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 9: you don't know if you're going to be able to 493 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 9: resign Javante because his stock is going through the roof right. 494 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 6: Now, I think you make your points. 495 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 5: My only counter to that would be if it feels 496 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 5: like and you guys correct me if I'm wrong. I 497 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 5: feel like every running back behind Javonte Williams, we've said, 498 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 5: all right, we got to give him the shot, right, 499 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 5: we got to give him the shot. All right, we 500 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 5: got to give him the shot. Nobody's really making the 501 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 5: most of their shot. All the shots have hit the rim, 502 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 5: and so with Bhi, well, he hasn't gotten a chance 503 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 5: to take the shot. 504 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 6: You're right, but yet. But my thing with phil is. 505 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 5: Will Mofa is essentially a bigger Javonte Williams in terms 506 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 5: of play style, they're not the same player, is not 507 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 5: what I'm saying. But he's your bigger, stronger kind of 508 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 5: between the tackles thumper guy and Javonte Williams is doing that, 509 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 5: and he Gavontay Williams, gives you a little bit more speed. 510 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 5: But I think why you see Miligue Davis and Jayden 511 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 5: Blue mixed into that RB two equation is because when 512 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 5: they get in space, they can they can be really dangerous. 513 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 5: And Phil MafA just isn't that so if Brian Shoheimer 514 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 5: in this run attack they if they want to make 515 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 5: it kind of like what nobody's going to emulate what 516 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 5: Detroit has with Gibbs and Montgomery. But if they want 517 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 5: to make it your thunder and lightning type of thing, 518 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 5: MafA and Williams doesn't really do that for me at 519 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 5: least I don't think That's why. I think, you know, 520 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 5: you look at okay, which one of Blue and Davis 521 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 5: can give us the best shot, because if they're only 522 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 5: going to get one to three touches a game, then 523 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 5: at that point you're just developing and open one of 524 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 5: them cracks something open. 525 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 7: I would also argue that the coaching staff I feel 526 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 7: like they know what they see in Jayden Blue. They 527 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 7: see the spark there in certain elements. But if anything, 528 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 7: I would see them try to basically do another Miles 529 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 7: Sanders situation, where obviously Miles Sanders is on IR he's 530 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 7: not coming back this season, but I would probably assume 531 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 7: that they would take a look at free agency to 532 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 7: see who else is out there. Looking at it right now, 533 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 7: I really don't see anybody that could make a difference. 534 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 7: Royce Freeman was on the roster last year. He's kind 535 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 7: of saw how that worked out. It wasn't excellent. But 536 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 7: I think a running back with pass protection that is 537 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 7: able to help in other elements outside of just carrying 538 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 7: the ball would be beneficial for this coaching staff. I 539 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 7: assume that's where they would go if the option at 540 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 7: film off is not necessarily this season project. 541 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 9: And I do agree with you, Tommy in that there 542 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 9: is a redundancy there between Phil and Javante, And ironically 543 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 9: that's actually why I want to see Phil. And let 544 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 9: me explain just a little bit. One thing that we've 545 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 9: noticed with this Cowboys team, not just this year, but 546 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 9: year a year prior is the injury bug tends to 547 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 9: have its way with this team. And as it stands, 548 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 9: if you look at the running back room, the reason 549 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 9: we all feel comfortable with it is not because of 550 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 9: the depth. It's because of how just damn good Javonte 551 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 9: Williams is. 552 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 2: When we were sitting here in training camp talking about 553 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 2: this running back room, it was like, oh, yeah, you 554 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 2: got a. 555 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 3: One, A one, B, and maybe a B or a 556 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 3: two somewhere in there. Bell Cow was not the thought. 557 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 3: There was no thought at any point. 558 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 2: As much as we all liked Javonte Williams, I think 559 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: there was still a conversation that it would share a 560 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 2: significant portrait carries, and that was the case for the 561 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 2: first four weeks to the now, it's like, no, don't 562 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: take those carries away from Javonte. Keep him out on 563 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 2: the field in as long as he's gonna stay healthy 564 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 2: and he's gonna run strong like he has been. 565 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 3: And that's that's the big question. 566 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 9: What you just said is something that you have to 567 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 9: plan for logistically, as long as he stays healthy. You've 568 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 9: seen your defense ravaged by injury. You've seen injury bite 569 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 9: a couple guys on your offensive side of the ball. 570 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 9: You would see without CD Lamb for a few games, 571 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 9: one example, your offensive line. You just got them whole 572 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 9: guys back from IR. So I think that you need 573 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 9: to if pil MafA is healthy enough to return, you 574 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 9: need to get that rookie out there so that you 575 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 9: can try to a see what you have from him 576 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 9: for twenty twenty six and beyond. But also in the event, 577 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 9: knock on all the wood, that something were to occur 578 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 9: to Javonte and he would have missed a game or 579 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 9: two or whatever, and we don't we know they were 580 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 9: up against the gauntlet, we know the trades they made, 581 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 9: so I don't know. 582 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,239 Speaker 8: You're so you're telling me there's a chance. I don't know. 583 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 9: But you don't want to find yourself in a situation 584 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 9: where it's week seventeen and you have to, you know, 585 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 9: play for your playoff life and Javonte's not available and 586 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 9: you're sitting here like, hmmm, wish we had Jaden Maleague 587 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 9: or a philm MafA who we've not returned to practice. 588 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 6: Yet, right. 589 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 7: I think that all depends on the availability of film 590 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 7: offa at this point, And because at least with Parion Winfrey, 591 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 7: it was all quiet on the Western front until his 592 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 7: twenty one day practice window was open, So until that happens, 593 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 7: we don't necessarily know his conditioning or right now. So 594 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 7: hopefully if he's, if he is, and hopefully it is 595 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 7: something to where we can see him the season. I 596 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 7: would love to see that as opposed to going out 597 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 7: in free agency, because like I said, they're not free 598 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 7: agency does not look it's not looking good, buddy, But 599 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 7: there are options there. But obviously they like Malik Davis 600 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 7: a lot, and the guy came off the couch and 601 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 7: had a great game in the preseason, so you know, 602 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 7: maybe they're leaning on what he can provide. 603 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 6: And I know they like Jayden Blue a lot too. 604 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 5: And look, there's a reason why I'm sitting here and 605 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 5: I'm not a football coach somewhere, but my. 606 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 3: Suggestion, far from it. 607 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 6: I would be be the worst coach team in history. 608 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 3: You can modo people well. 609 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 6: In terms of x's and o's. 610 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 5: I mean, my quarterback is going to have ten picks 611 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 5: in the first quarter, so it's it's not going. 612 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 8: To go well. 613 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 6: Better decision. I would tell him that needs to still 614 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 6: throw a pick. 615 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 8: Those rushing yards in the league. 616 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 3: We're just handing the ball off every poy No. 617 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 6: But you know, with Jayden Blue, when you look. 618 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 5: Back at his time in Texas, and if it's not 619 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 5: clear to people already, I've watch I'm a big Texas fan, 620 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 5: and what made him special it was what he could do, 621 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 5: thank you, was what he could do in the receiving game. 622 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 5: So you know, we see all these like end rounds 623 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 5: to Ceedee Lamb or screen passes, tunnel screens to Jalen 624 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 5: Tolbert and things like that. I'm still waiting for the 625 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 5: first like jet sweep to Seedee Lamb to actually be 626 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,719 Speaker 5: a big game. Like it feels like every time they 627 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 5: do that, the defense is all over it. I don't 628 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 5: know if that's just it hasn't worked this year for sure, 629 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 5: But if you're going to run a tunnel screen or 630 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 5: something like that, go Jayden Blue in there. So get 631 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 5: him in space. See what you can do if you're 632 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 5: gonna do an end around, see if Jayden Blue can 633 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 5: can turn the corner and move upfield and get some 634 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 5: good blocks down the field too, and see what he 635 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 5: can do. 636 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 6: I think just getting the. 637 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,959 Speaker 5: Ball in his hands and letting him do something with it, 638 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 5: as opposed to all right, let's try to navigate him 639 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 5: through the tackles. Then obviously, as a running back in 640 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 5: the NFL, you have to be able to play in 641 00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 5: between the tackles. But if you don't feel comfortable and 642 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 5: getting him and outside zone stuff, just get him outside 643 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 5: and let him work and send guys downfield. 644 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 6: To block for it. 645 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 5: So that would be what I would want to see 646 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 5: going forward, if Jade and Blue is going to be 647 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 5: your second option. 648 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 2: I think I feel bad for Tommy sometimes because he 649 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 2: tries to give this like legitimate analysis, but anytime it 650 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 2: has anything to do with the Texas play, we. 651 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 6: All roll our eyes. 652 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 3: It was just like it wasn't a legitimate analysis. No, 653 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 3: that's what I'm saying. It is like, but what you're 654 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 3: saying there is true is they haven't put dogs. 655 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 2: Well, we haven't had a ton of them. Now you've 656 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 2: got George Pickens and he's balling out, so you're fine. 657 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,720 Speaker 2: But I think you have a point in they haven't 658 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 2: given Jaden Blue the opportunity to do what he does 659 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 2: best when he's in the game, and that's get him 660 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 2: in space. They've run him in between the tackles, and 661 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,840 Speaker 2: they've run him into the line of scrimmage over and 662 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: over and over again, and then they're like, oh, you 663 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,240 Speaker 2: have your three carries, your three touches. 664 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 3: We're good. Get a little creative there, let's get him 665 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 3: out in space. It's a little bit. 666 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 2: The screen game hasn't worked great this year as a 667 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 2: whole for Dallas, but when it has worked, it sprung 668 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 2: for big games and so and a lot of that 669 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 2: was with Miles Sanders early in the season. It was 670 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 2: with Javonte Williams once or twice, and then we've seen 671 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 2: a couple from a wide receiver standpoint, mostly Turpin. So 672 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 2: maybe you have an opportunity with another weapon like that 673 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,959 Speaker 2: outside to do it.

Fifty to fifty 823 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 9: split would be wonderful for me because I want to 824 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 9: keep the opposing offenses guessing. 825 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 3: One thing. 826 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 7: For me, it's sort of a broad stroke here, but 827 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 7: I really want the turnover margin to start swinging the 828 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 7: right way. 829 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 3: For us. 830 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 7: I really want the defense to be battling for turnovers. 831 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 8: I really do. 832 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 7: Obviously, that's you always expect that, you always want that. 833 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 7: But I think the improvement of your defensive line now, 834 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,760 Speaker 7: the improvement of your linebacker corps, especially with Logan Wilson 835 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 7: who has eleven interceptions on his career already, I think 836 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 7: that's going to be a great addition and going to 837 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 7: get you sort of in the I guess plus column 838 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 7: plus plus probably plus plus in terms of turnovers for 839 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 7: your defense forest turnovers, So you really want to see that. 840 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 8: That would be the. 841 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,280 Speaker 7: Biggest thing for me, and that would help your defense 842 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 7: that is struggling. They're going to give up yards. That's 843 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 7: going to be a sort of recurring theme throughout the season. 844 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 7: But one thing that we've said before and we'll say again, 845 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 7: if you have a ben but don't break defense. The 846 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 7: one thing that really emphasizes that that wins you games 847 00:42:58,760 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 7: is turning the ball over. 848 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 3: Give me that. 849 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 6: I like it. 850 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 2: I'll do you a quick two part if that's okay, 851 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 2: one well, one at a time, and then we'll keep going. 852 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 5: Okay, I'm sorry, I think I think we'll start go 853 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 5: back to defense. I think the Cowboys need to wish 854 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:17,400 Speaker 5: that Savone Revel looks like the first round pick that 855 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 5: he looked. 856 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 6: Like before his injury. I think if that's the case. 857 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 5: Then you think about the future with this Cowboys second 858 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 5: game this season, when you get Trayvon Diggs back and 859 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 5: hopefully he's got his legs back under him, you can 860 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 5: move to around Bland of the slot, and if Revel's 861 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 5: playing at a high level, digs Revel and Bland, I 862 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 5: think that you're looking at a pretty good trio right there, 863 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 5: because I think, look, I'm a big believer in Revel. 864 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 6: I think he's the real deal. 865 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 5: If he's healthy, and you know, you turn on the 866 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 5: tape of him at East Carolina and a guy that 867 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 5: size with that long of arms, you don't really see 868 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 5: that very much the cornerback position. So if they can 869 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 5: capitalize on him and his health and he plays well, 870 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 5: I think that's going to bode really well for this defense, 871 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 5: especially how much they invested in the front seven. 872 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go to the offensive line. I'm gonna say 873 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 2: your offensive line through the first four or five weeks 874 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 2: of the year protected Dak Prescott at a high level. 875 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 2: They were running the ball effectively, at a high level, 876 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 2: and sometime around right after the Jets game going into 877 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 2: the Panthers game, there's just been some uncertainty up front. 878 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 2: Maybe it was the injury to Cooper Beebe. I know 879 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 2: that played a significant factor, but he's been back. Now, 880 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 2: now how do you continue to build on it. You've 881 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 2: got your starting five offensive linemen at this point in 882 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 2: the season, all healthy for the most part. You're coming 883 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,879 Speaker 2: off a bye week, so you're extra rested. I feel 884 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 2: pretty good about that. If you were to tell me 885 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 2: going into what week eleven, that you're gonna have your 886 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,839 Speaker 2: starting five offensive linemen everybody pretty solid up front, I'd say, 887 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 2: all right, this team's gonna be able to put up 888 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 2: some yards, protect Dak Prescott, and have some protection up front. 889 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 2: I want to see solidified confidence in. 890 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:55,359 Speaker 3: Your offensive line. 891 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 2: That's what I wish for over these next couple of games, 892 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 2: because I know injuries are part the game and people 893 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 2: are probably not going to be up there. We could 894 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 2: talk about this in week seventeen or eighteen, and it's 895 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,439 Speaker 2: going to be a completely different story with your offensive line, 896 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 2: But right now you've got them all. Let's see what 897 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 2: this looks like and how you can build upon that, 898 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:14,840 Speaker 2: and that's my wish list. 899 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:15,719 Speaker 8: I'm going to. 900 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 9: Josh, I'll see your takeaways, and I'll raise you penalties. 901 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 9: I need this team as a whole on both sides 902 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 9: of the ball in all three phases. I should say 903 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,399 Speaker 9: just go ahead and throw special teams in there as well. 904 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 9: I need this team to figure out how to not 905 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 9: shoot itself in the foot. Stop killing drives with pre 906 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 9: snap penalties or post snap penalties like holes and things 907 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 9: like that. I get it, you know, some calls or 908 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 9: bogus Every team deals with bogus calls here and again. 909 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 9: But control what you can control. You can control if 910 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 9: you false start, you can control defensively if you're lining 911 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 9: up in the neutral zone. You can control if you're 912 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 9: lined up correctly, if you're a wide receiver for the Cowboys. 913 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 9: So those things have to come to a sea so 914 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:04,359 Speaker 9: or as much of a seat as possible, because again, 915 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 9: bogus cars is going to happen. Okay, fine, nothing you 916 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 9: can do about that. But those pre snaps and those 917 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 9: post snaps that don't involve what we call competitive flags 918 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 9: and things like that, just cut it out. Cut it out, 919 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 9: because you're not doing your team any service. And I 920 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 9: will also add that this is not a team that 921 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:27,879 Speaker 9: can afford to suffer those penalties and still overcome because 922 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 9: they already have so much to overcome as is. When 923 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 9: you talk about the defense being the worst in the 924 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 9: league statistically, when you talk about the offense having it 925 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 9: struggles these past couple of games, trying to figure some 926 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 9: things out, don't compile the issue by you know, false star. 927 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 9: Now you're behind the chains, and now other teams get 928 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:48,479 Speaker 9: to pin their ears back as your offensive line tries 929 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 9: to re solidify, and they're you know, hitting back seven 930 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 9: times a game, sacking and five times like, just cut 931 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:54,799 Speaker 9: out the flags. 932 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,279 Speaker 7: One more thing for me, at least. We're getting into 933 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 7: the holiday season. We're getting about to see a lot 934 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 7: of holiday meals, you know, lots of carbs coming our way. 935 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 7: One thing I need to see a little more of 936 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 7: big biscuits. 937 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:09,919 Speaker 3: Okay, you know what we're talking about. 938 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 7: We're talking about Jake Ferguson, where you been, brother, No, 939 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:16,359 Speaker 7: I feel like over the last few weeks, I mean, 940 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:17,280 Speaker 7: obviously teams. 941 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:20,760 Speaker 3: Are they're taking it. Yeah, thank you, Kyle. 942 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:27,360 Speaker 7: Come on, Tommy, a little creative language, buddy. We're talking biscuits, baby, Absolutely, 943 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:31,399 Speaker 7: let's go big biscuit in fact, biscuits. Well, he's been 944 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 7: obviously he's been schemed up for the opposing defenses. Over 945 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:36,440 Speaker 7: the past couple of weeks, he's been kind of bullied 946 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 7: out there. You see him getting double teamed, you see 947 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,080 Speaker 7: him getting uh flushed out of his routes. And I 948 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 7: missed the Jake Ferguson going up against Seattle and bowing 949 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 7: up to some dudes. You know what I'm saying. I 950 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,880 Speaker 7: missed that big biscuit dude, So please make a comeback. 951 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 7: Get physical out there, fight for those yards. Like I 952 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:55,799 Speaker 7: want to see more yards have to carry for uh 953 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 7: for after catch for Jake Ferguson, I want to see. 954 00:47:59,480 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 3: Well. 955 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:02,840 Speaker 5: Building off of that, I think mister Ferguson needs to 956 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:06,320 Speaker 5: share some of the biscuits with his offensive line. Building 957 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 5: off of Kyle's point, you were talking more about protecting Dak, 958 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 5: I think that the last couple week, not that it's 959 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 5: been bad, but I think early on the season they 960 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,400 Speaker 5: were having so much success moving things around in the 961 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 5: run game for Javonte Williams, and it hasn't been as 962 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 5: successful in the last few weeks. So if they can 963 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 5: get back into a rhythm and sure, they've been separated 964 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 5: for a couple of games because everybody's been hurt. But 965 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 5: now that you're back at full strength, you've got a 966 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 5: bye week to correct some things. This should be a 967 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:38,919 Speaker 5: game where against this Raiders front seven, you can push 968 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 5: things around a little bit, especially in the interior.
