Can you believe that 29 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: whether we won, uh for three in a row? Right, 30 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: three in a rows of Buffalo does tonight four out 31 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: of six? Yes, I think Buffalo's got the street guard. 32 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: Come on, man, I mean, let's let's just think about that. 33 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: All the teams that were highly talented they were at 34 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: mid season, all the teams just even two weeks ago. Oh, 35 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 1: there are a lot for the playoffs. And these are 36 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: the guys we have to watch out for. The Browns 37 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: this and and you got all these teams and everybody's 38 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: looking at Pittsburgh Steelers. You know they're gonna be the 39 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: team to be all of a sudden, they're all struggling. 40 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: And the Cowboys right now, except for the Casey Chiefs 41 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: and Buffalo. If I'm not listening, even the Bears. I 42 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 1: think we were like as far as consistency the last 43 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: few weeks, we're the top four teams in the NFL. 44 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: And how about that end considering too, by the way, 45 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: meaning ten. How about how about the other thing? When 46 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: people look at the teams the Cowboys have played did 47 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: in this three game winning streak, Cincinnati, San Francisco and Philadelphia. Now, okay, 48 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: how about this? This bodes very well for Sunday Night 49 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: in Philadelphia because two weeks ago, the Cowboys beat the Bengals. 50 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: What the Bengals do? The following week they knocked off 51 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh They beat not they not only one? They 52 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: won over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Okay, last week, what did 53 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys do? They beat the Niners? What did the Niners 54 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: do on Saturday? They came back and beat the Arizona Cardinals. 55 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: And now the Cowboys beat the Eagles. And what do 56 00:03:55,480 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: they do next Sunday Night? They're gonna beat They're gonna 57 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: beat the Washington team, and they're gonna put us in 58 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Right now, the Cowboys have to do their part. 59 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: We've taken care of that part of it. The Cowboys 60 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: will have to do their part and beat the New 61 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: York Football Giants. Did Cincinnati again and yesterday Cincinnati, what 62 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: did they do? Yester? They were right, yes, yesterday the 63 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: playing they're playing, they played the best team so far. Right, 64 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 1: And how about It's like it's like the you know, 65 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: ever since you talk about the Cowboys being one of 66 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: the hotter teams in the league, two other hot teams 67 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: in the league, all of a sudden are the Bengals 68 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: and the New York Jets. Come on the company that 69 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: this is this is a goofy goofy year. I mean, 70 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: that's the best you can say about it. All. They 71 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: kept talking about it, and they were even this more 72 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: on it. Everyone's joking all the NFC East, they're so bad, 73 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: all these pundits, they're becoming so poetic on how they 74 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: put down the Cowboys and the NFC East. Everyone's trying 75 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: to be so dog gone articulate all of a sudden 76 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: when it comes to how they can down the entire division. 77 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: And then when you look up, if you start talking 78 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: about the power index the last month of this season, 79 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: just the power index, like you just talked about Bill 80 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: teams that are beaten teams and lost to other teams 81 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: and upset other teams. The Cowboys power index is right 82 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: at the top. As a matter of fact, we are 83 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: the NFC East has how can I put it? They 84 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,799 Speaker 1: have affected the playoff picture more than any other division 85 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: I think in the NFL. And with the Cowboys having 86 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: that windstreak going and affecting their own destiny, Man, you 87 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: can just shut up about the NFC East. You can say, 88 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: you can say what you want. In the first part 89 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 1: of the season, especially this last month, the NFC East, 90 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: especially Dallas Cowboys, are relevant. They are relevant and so 91 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: relevant that they got flexed into a prime time Sunday 92 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: night game. Oh boy, bangs, I'm talking about. That's what 93 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. So if you had those we talked 94 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 1: about that changing your airline plans, your flight plans. Someone 95 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: right now is scrambling to change all of their flight 96 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: plans leaving New York City and coming back home. And 97 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: so you know the real reason that Washington in Philadelphia 98 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 1: got flexed to Sunday night of the Cowboys. I mean, 99 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: I'm watching the game last night and it was a blowout. 100 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: The Packers are winning big over the Titans and Al Michaels. 101 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: It was like every time I tuned my ear to 102 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: what he was talking about, he was coming back. Let's talk. 103 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: Let's get back to talking about the NFCS. Let's talk 104 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 1: about how the Cowboys are doing so so there. Take yeah, 105 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: take that, everybody there who are nobody cares about the 106 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: Cowboys anymore? Yes, thank you. The first thing you talked 107 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: about when you started to talk about yesterday's game takeaways, 108 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: how about the takeaways? It's now ten to one over 109 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: the last three weeks, a plus nine. When after those 110 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: first what thirteen games or twelve games, they were minus thirteen. 111 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: They were sitting there after nine excuse me, they were 112 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: two and seven and they were minus thirteen in the 113 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:49,679 Speaker 1: takeaway turnover differential. And then suddenly these last three weeks 114 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: they're plus nine and it just makes such a huge difference. 115 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: We've been talking about it for the last couple of weeks. 116 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: They get two more or picks. How about that, Everson 117 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: Walls two picks and a fumble recovery. Somebody go find 118 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: me and Anthony Brown jersey I'm wearing it all. Next 119 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: number thirty, by the way, in case you need to know, yes, 120 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: number three. I am all on this guy, But then 121 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: just let you know, guys, for real, how the pace 122 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: of the game. If you determine the pace of the game, 123 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: then these kind of fortunate opportunities come to you. I mean, 124 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: if you're offensively, you're gonna be always under the gun. 125 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: You can't run the ball, you're turning it over all 126 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 1: the time. You're putting your defense in bad situations to 127 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: whether it backs up against the wall with the offense, 128 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: the opposing offense in position to score. If you can't 129 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 1: stop the run consistently enough, then you don't have a 130 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,479 Speaker 1: chance to make those turnovers. You can't create your own turnovers. 131 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: If your special team just fumbling the ball, they're not turning, 132 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: they're not contributing, they're not putting you in a positive position. 133 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: I'm I'm going up down the road. I've always gone 134 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: down guys. It takes every fast of the game for 135 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: this team. It's good for every team, but especially for 136 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: this team who really doesn't control things from one unit 137 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: to another. All three units have to come together to 138 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 1: help each other. Don't put a strain on your offense 139 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: special teams offense, don't put a strain on your defense 140 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: by giving it up and putting us in a bad position. Defense, 141 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: try and stop somebody on third down every once in 142 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: a while. Stop the running game from being so prevalent 143 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 1: to where your offense is under pressure when they come 144 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: into the game. We gotta score now. We gotta score 145 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: now because we haven't stopped anybody. None of that stuff 146 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: is happening right now, guys. Offensively, we're moving the ball. 147 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: Time of possession is amazing. We've controlled that. Defensively, we've 148 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: given up some drives, we've given up some big plays. Overall, 149 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: we have made the opposing offense work for every yard 150 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: they've gotten. We've gotten each other bend but don't break defense. 151 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: That's fine. I was all a part of that when 152 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: I was with the Cowboys. You had to make the 153 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: turnovers in order to survive. This is what our defense 154 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: is realizing that they have to do. And offensively, we're 155 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: feeding off of each other. Defense, feeding off the offensive offense, 156 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: feeding off the defense. That's the way you play ball. Guys. 157 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: We don't have the team offensively or defensively that can 158 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 1: counter a bunch of mistakes by the other side of 159 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: the ball. We just don't have it. And I think 160 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 1: we finally realized that, and we're coaching in that manner. 161 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: I like the way offensively, Keller Moore was making sure 162 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: that first down was huge for us. Did you see 163 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: that facts He made sure that on first down we 164 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: were able to work our way up to a short 165 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: and manageable third down position. It happened the entire game. 166 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 1: That's how we control that pace. I love it that 167 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: can wait for us throughout. And then you also see, 168 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: when you get a lead, the other team's got to 169 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: take some chances and they start throwing the ball, and 170 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: that's when you have an opportunity to get some turnovers, 171 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: you get some picks. You forced them out of what 172 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: they wanted to do. I'm not sure that they needed 173 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: to do it as quickly as they did. Right they 174 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: ran the ball right down the Cowboys throat those first 175 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: two possessions, got a fourteen to three lead. Then all 176 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the Cowboys were in the lead and 177 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson said, oh no, we're gonna just throw the 178 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 1: ball with Jalen Hurts, and I thought that was a 179 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: huge mistake. They got away from their read option run 180 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: plays that had been working. But again, you get the lead, 181 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 1: you caused people to do something different. You get the lead, 182 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: and suddenly at the end of the game, you can 183 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 1: run the football because they're taking chances, and all of 184 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: a sudden, those holes that you weren't opening earlier in 185 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: the game suddenly Zekiel Elliott's looking like, whoa, look at there, 186 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,599 Speaker 1: there's no one in front of me. I don't have 187 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: to knock somebody over to get four yards. It's amazing. 188 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: And the offensive line didn't get better, right, but they 189 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: teams have to start taking chances when they get behind, 190 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: and so yeah, all this stuff started to come together, 191 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, And you know, I was just gonna sit 192 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: there and say, yeah, you know. And the Cowboys got 193 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: their three wins and they beat three backup quarterbacks. Well, 194 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: welcome to the Cowboys world, right. They've been playing with 195 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback since the fifth game. The third quarter 196 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: of the fifth game of the season, they've been playing 197 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: with backup offensive linemen, and did so in the middle 198 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: of the game when the one guy that's been the 199 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: standard bearer on that offensive line, Connor Williams, has to 200 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: go to the locker room with a knee injury or 201 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: a knee issue, and they got to shuffle things up 202 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: front again. They did it in the secondary. When they 203 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 1: lost Darren Thompson to the concussion protocol, they had to 204 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: move Jordan Lewis the safety, and they moved Anthony Brown, oh, 205 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: by the way into the slot where he was playing 206 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: when he picked off the pass. So I don't want 207 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: to hear about all these other teams injuries because this 208 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: team has been putting up with this since the beginning 209 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: of the season and now they're sitting there at six 210 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: and nine. Went a chance to go to seven and 211 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: nine and win the division. You know. The other thing, 212 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: and Mickey, you're talking about the Eagles getting away from 213 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: their what was working for them on that first drive 214 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: of the game, running the football with his own reads. 215 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 1: You know. In their second possession, of course, on the 216 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: first play they hit the bomb to de Sean Jacks. 217 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: Yeah right, and got the fourteen to three lead. But 218 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: really credit the Cowboys they as far as the run 219 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: defense is concerned. The next possession for Philadelphia, they were 220 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: three and out and they were all run plays. It 221 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 1: was Sanders for seven. Neville Gallimore stopped a run play 222 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: on second and three for a one yard loss to 223 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: He had a third and four and on the third 224 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: and four they ran it with Sanders again, got stopped 225 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: for two yards and had to punt. They came back 226 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: in the next possession and it was a mix of 227 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: the run. They started with a Hurts run, a Sanders run, 228 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: a Hurts run, and then they threw it and then 229 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: Hurts ran it again. Anyway that the drive ended without 230 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: points being scored, okay. And then the Cowboys come back 231 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: and they made enough place started the second half, which 232 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: was huge. I mean McCarthy talks about the double water 233 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: burger with Cheese scoring the touchdown at the end of 234 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: the first half and then scoring a touchdown on the 235 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: first possession of the second half within the other part 236 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: of that. So the Cowboys went from being down seventeen 237 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: thirteen to being up twenty seven and seventeen. Then the 238 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: defense comes out and the Eagles run the ball with 239 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: Sanders for six yards and then Sean Lee makes a tackle. 240 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown sets the edge on that play for no gain, 241 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: creating a third and four and an incomplete pass ball 242 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: back in the hands of the All Boys, which was 243 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: another scoring drive, a field goal, and you're up thirty 244 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: to seventeen. And it's basically Katie bar the door, which 245 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: is remarkable since they ended up giving one hundred and 246 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: fifty one yards rushing. That's two games in a row 247 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty yards rushing. But as someone pointed 248 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: out to me, I think last week, well that was 249 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: an improvement over the two hundred and some yards they 250 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: gave up the week before. So I was just gonna say, 251 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: as Fays, I'm sorry, I'm not only minting one hundred 252 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: and fifty yards rushing at all. To me, that is 253 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: an improvement. And they were actually looking decent except for 254 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: the first drive. They were giving up some plays. But 255 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: I'd say after that second quarter, the rush situation for Philly, 256 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: even though as Bill pointed out, they still tried to 257 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: run the ball, not only did we stop to run 258 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: with that D line, I thought that they made things 259 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: very uncomfortable for Hurts anytime he dropped that on third 260 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: down in third down situations. That was something that I 261 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: saw was a determining factor in their defensive third down success. 262 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: The fact that we were able to come Randy Gregory 263 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: was playing like a madman. Gallimore did just what we 264 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: talked about before last week, Bill coming in making plays 265 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: in the middle. The linebackers themselves were filling holes well 266 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: enough to where they were causing penalties against that filling 267 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: offensive line because they were able to fill those holes 268 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: that our defensive line was creating for our linebackers. I 269 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: thought they were very coordinated on third down. Guys. It 270 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: was our first, best to me best third down play 271 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: all year long. And Bill, when we come back from break, 272 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: I guarantee you that Jalen Hurts woke up in the 273 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: middle of the night and saw ninety four on top 274 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 1: of them. All right, that guarantee would we come back 275 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: here a moment. Hey, they're Cowboys fans.

We did see the lamb 334 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: on the final touchdown of the day, and not only that, 335 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: but also the first touchdown of the second half. Thank 336 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: you very much? Boy? Did he did he embarrass that? 337 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: I'm learning my notes? I see. First of all, all 338 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: of us were very I'm sorry. We were weak and 339 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: not We just didn't believe. We didn't believe, We had 340 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 1: no faith. We know, and Spats pointed it out. Anytime 341 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys win, they score over thirty points. Right, that's 342 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: been over the last two years, correct, Spacts. They are 343 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: now fourteen wins and fourteen games scoring at least thirty points. 344 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: What did we do, guys? What was our prediction for 345 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: the score? I started off and you guys just fall 346 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: along like some little blind sheep. Twenty four points. All 347 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: three of us guys just twenty four points. Where is 348 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: the faith? Especially you, Bill Spags. We expect that from him, 349 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: but you and I should have known better. I'm so 350 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 1: disappointed in myself. Twenty four seventeen, you got twenty four 351 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: twenty three Spags, So that means Spags didn't really care. 352 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: That was just you know, he rolled that score in. 353 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: You know, Bill, would you have But as we look 354 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: at our picks to click, we did pretty good. We 355 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: did pretty good, Spags said d Larrence, which you know 356 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 1: he was. You know, if it wasn't for Reddy Gregory, yeah, 357 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: d Larrence would have been the great picked the click, 358 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: but Reddy Greggan was going crazy. Sean Lee was benefiting 359 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: off of what the guys were doing up front. Good pick, Bill, 360 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: but hey, Alamore was was was making it easy for 361 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 1: he and and Jaymon Smith. You know that I was 362 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: looking at the day job. It was Cede Lamb. We 363 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 1: missed the fact. My note said, uh, the Cede Lamb 364 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: passed the week before Andy Dalton through that dime. I 365 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: told you how what a dime that was. I don't 366 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 1: know why we didn't talk about that. The wide receivers, 367 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: I said, must win the one on one battles. Yeah, ceedee, 368 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: lamb one his But forget him. We're looking at Coop 369 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 1: had a great day yesterday. We're looking at Michael Gallop, 370 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: who had another great day yesterday. We should have seen 371 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: it coming, man, We should have had We should have 372 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: picked forty points, all three of us. Basically, here's here's 373 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: what happened. I didn't trust the offensive line, and I 374 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: still worry about them. And that's why I said, Okay, 375 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: if they can score twenty four points, they're doing well. 376 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, they it was a mismatch in the secondary. 377 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: And if the offensive line could just have been okay, 378 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: which they were, to give Dalton a chance to throw 379 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: the ball down the field, you can see what this 380 00:23:54,600 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: guy still has all this stuff, Andy Dalton. Yeah, he 381 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: put three hundred and seventy seven yards on the Philadelphia Eagles, 382 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: including three touchdown passed on right and he got a 383 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: little too aggressive when he didn't need to be aggressive 384 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: on that one pass. But other than that, he finished 385 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: with a one thirty four point seven quarterback rating, and 386 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 1: the the rookie Flash ended up with a seventy point 387 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: seven quarterback rating. There you go. I would like to 388 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 1: say one thing about my pick to click Sean Lee. Well, 389 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: I'll say two things. Number one, how about we play 390 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: him a little bit more. He got thirty snaps in 391 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 1: the game, and but the key thing that he did 392 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: was after falling behind team to three. They showed it 393 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: on television. He called the defense together and after he 394 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: chewed their butts out, the defense only scored only gave 395 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: up three points the rest of the game. So I 396 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: credit that to the butt chewing on the sideline from 397 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: Sean Lee. How's that? No? Absolutely absolutely stick to click. 398 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: But I'll give it to you. That's a stretch for 399 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 1: a pick to click. But I'll pick we all should 400 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: have won the game. The pick we all should have 401 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: made was Randy Gregory. Right. He had a sack and 402 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: a half, six tackles, two quarterback hits, one pass defense, 403 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: and forced three fumbles only one of which the Cowboys 404 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: did recover. But he was all over the place and 405 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,919 Speaker 1: when he wasn't recording a number, he was in Jalen 406 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: Hurt's face. He was chasing him out of the pocket. Uh, 407 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: there was a couple I thought he should have got 408 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: called from grounding. I think I think he caused at 409 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: least two false starts. Oh absolutely, Oh that guy. That 410 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: guy got the jitters over there on that side of 411 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: the field. And one of them was a huge one. 412 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: I mean if it was Gregory that caused it, the 413 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: one that uh on the when they were in the 414 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: on the plus side of the fifty and it turned yeah, yeah, 415 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: and um so that was huge. Um. Well, the other 416 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: guy is Michael Gallup. I mean the way Gallup played 417 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: in that first half, I mean it was it was 418 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: almost like a three point shooter in basketball where you 419 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: just want to keep seeing the guy because he is 420 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: hot right now. I mean, and and Dalton kept feeding 421 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: Gallop and it was one after another. Uh and that 422 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: was it was so huge. Uh the way that half 423 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: ended uh to Cowboys on offense, I mean it was 424 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: like they were in the running shoot where where they 425 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: were shooting and scoring. Uh and uh. And Gallup was 426 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: the guy during I mean he showed during that second 427 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: quarter exactly why we've all been talking about Michael Gallup 428 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 1: being a number one receiver in this league. Yeah. And 429 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 1: I want all the people out there and get their 430 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: hands up in the air. They wanted to trade him 431 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: because Cowboys had too many wide receivers. Right, let's trade 432 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup. And I spoke of it last week, and 433 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: once again I speak of it. Molly Cooper just a 434 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: quiet assassin, just as consistent as ever. Did he get 435 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 1: his thousand yards yesterday? Yes, he got his thousand yards yesterday. 436 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: And just think about this, guys, You've gone through four 437 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,679 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and this guy is able to get a thousand yards. 438 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: He did exactly what he was brought here to do. 439 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: No matter what it was going on around him, he 440 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: stayed steady and consistent in what he had to do. 441 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: And when it's all said and done, to me, he's 442 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: the MVP of this team. I really believe that. And 443 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: not only that, he ended up with a single season 444 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: high eighties. He has eighty six catches now with one 445 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,479 Speaker 1: game to go, and he's a thousand yards. He's got 446 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: eleven hundred yards now receiving. So those guys have done 447 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 1: a heck of a job. You know. Everybody kind of 448 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 1: laughed when they said, well he can have three one 449 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: thousand yard receivers, right, Well, they've got one for sure, 450 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 1: and Lamb has eight hundred and ninety two at this point, 451 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: gallops seven ninety four, so in all of them with 452 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,719 Speaker 1: at least fifty five catches. So yeah, these three guys certainly, 453 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: but see that. I mean, look, they ended up with 454 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: five hundred and thirteen yards total offense. If you remember, 455 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: before Dak got hurt, the three games prior to that 456 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: Giants game, they had totaled five hundred yards total offense 457 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: in three games in a row. This is the first 458 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: one since then. So it shows you what this offense 459 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: can do. Zeke with another with his second hundred yard 460 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: rushing performance, you can see what this offense can do 461 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: if the offensive wine will cooperate and not turn the 462 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: ball over. Yeah, he I think he needs seventy seventy 463 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: yards maybe to hit a thousand. That's crazy, that's crazy. 464 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: And so guys, let's just go back to last year 465 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: when everyone was questioning a Marii Cooper's heart. You know, 466 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy was having a great year and 467 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: he had a little little little down down moment there 468 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: and everyone was talking about what's wrong with him? Why 469 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: isn't he playing better? After the Patriots game, everyone was 470 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: on him like he doesn't deserve the status is our 471 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: number one receiver and he never said anything. He has 472 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: never said anything. He's never tried to take up for himself. 473 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: He lets his talking happened on the field, and that's 474 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: just something that, as you look back on, is never appreciated. 475 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: Until you know, people started contemplating what the season was 476 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: all about him, Well, his career was all about it. 477 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: I've got to give him some love. Man. I've been 478 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: kind of down on him myself as far as his 479 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,719 Speaker 1: lack of aggressiveness, and I want him to speak up 480 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: for himself, but this guy refuses to do that, and 481 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: he just does all his talking on the field. I 482 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: really do admire the guy. I thought the neatest thing 483 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: he said after the game, when somebody asked him about 484 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: Gallup's big performance, he said, I just felt it. I 485 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: felt that in the air. I just knew that this 486 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: was the game he was going to dominate. I actually 487 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: wanted him to do a lot more because I just 488 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: think that's what I felt. The guy was holding them 489 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: every play the beginning of the game, and I just 490 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: know Michael and so yeah, I was glad to see 491 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: him go out there and do his think. So he 492 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: would rather talk about everybody else but himself, and that's 493 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 1: kind of the guy. He's kind of like that quiet assassin. 494 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: You don't hear much from him, you don't see much 495 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: from him all the time, and then all of a 496 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: sudden he turns up with leven hundred yards receiving eighty 497 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: six receptions with one game to go. Uh, he's just 498 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: did you spend one? Did you see him break that 499 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: guy's ankle? Him? The guy's legs ended up being prexeled. 500 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's just you know, and he no 501 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: one's gonna mention that. No one's gonna say anything about that, 502 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: just because of just how humble he is. But to me, 503 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: if that was any other wide receiver, if it was 504 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: Tieweik Hill, if it was DeVante Adams, any of those guys, 505 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: if they would have broken down a dB at the 506 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: line of Scrimma is just like that, it would have 507 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: been a top ten. That was the hell of a play. 508 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: And don't you wish the Cowboys would have started taking games? 509 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: And back six weeks ago everyone was talking about let's 510 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: let's go with Garrett Gilbert instead of Andy Dalton. Oh man, bag, 511 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 1: don't don't don't get me started, don't get don't work, 512 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: don't don't gass him up, Bill, Please don't gas him up. 513 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 1: I'm just sitting there thinking, how many people back in 514 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: mid November we're saying, Oh, they're still they're still talking 515 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: about it. They're still talking about it. Oh no, we're 516 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: gonna be drafting seventeenth. You know what, And this may 517 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: be the most unreasonable draft there's been. Right other than 518 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks and a linebacker from Penn State start telling 519 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: me who the top players are. As a matter of fact, 520 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: these teams don't even know because they can't scout these 521 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 1: guys the way they're normally used to scouting them. They 522 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: can't meet with them the way they're normally used to 523 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: meeting with them, and who knows if there's gonna be 524 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: a Senior Bowl or even a combine, or if it's 525 00:32:55,120 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: virtual with nobody's there to talk personally with people. I 526 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: just think and think about the junior outs. If you 527 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: weren't on these guys as sophomores and had all these scouting, 528 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: and these guys became juniors and now you're they're coming 529 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: out and you've had no contact with them whatsoever, this 530 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: makes me the most unreasonable draft there's ever been. So 531 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: why you want to put the premium on a top 532 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: ten pick well. And also now it depends on the position. 533 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: Of course, we can see those that make the catches 534 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: and that make the runs and the passes, but it's 535 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: hard when you're talking about a guy making the tackles. 536 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: So when you're talking about a guy trying to shut 537 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,959 Speaker 1: somebody down one on one, and when you're a D lineman, 538 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, you're you're in that a 539 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: gap and you're that D lineman that's damn good at 540 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: what he does. But it just really doesn't come out 541 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: as much, like you said, when you don't get to 542 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 1: study them, when you don't get to talk to them, 543 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: and you don't get to see them show how they 544 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: play well against the top seniors in the country. That's 545 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: tough deal. Tough deal for guys coming out. And I'll 546 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: throw a couple of these are two very high quality 547 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: people and they're local and but they were the second 548 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: and third pick of the Okay, Luke jokel out of 549 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: Arlington High School and Texas A and M was the 550 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: second pick of the draft and offensive tackle. I met 551 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,479 Speaker 1: him when he was in high school at Arlington High School. 552 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: I said, this guy's gonna be a first round draft pick. 553 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: It was this. I mean, you can tell as he 554 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: was when he was a senior in high school, and 555 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 1: sure enough he was a second pick in the draft. Now, 556 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: he probably had issues whatever in his career, but you know, 557 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: he did not have a great NFL career. He's not 558 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 1: in the league now. Solomon Thomas from Coppelle High School 559 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 1: in Stanford. I mean, you cannot. You cannot have a 560 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: finer human being or a prospect than Solomon Thomas. And 561 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: he still might become a Pro Bowl type player in 562 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: his career, but here in the first three or four 563 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: years of his career, he hasn't for whatever reason, hasn't 564 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: been He's been a rotational defensive lineman for them. My 565 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: point on all that is, you don't you can have 566 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: the second or third pick in the draft and you've 567 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 1: got the most quality human being and prospect that your 568 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: scouts could ever come up with, and you don't know 569 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: for sure that they are going to be, you know, 570 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 1: all pro type players at all. And so the point being, 571 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: play the games, just play the season out, do things 572 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 1: the right way, and those players a Tyring Smith will 573 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 1: fall to you at number nine or whatever wherever he 574 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: was drafted J. J. Watt was a tenth pick in 575 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 1: the draft or whatever. CD lamb Okay is a great 576 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: example where the Cowboys got him last year. There are 577 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 1: players available for you anyway. How about how about one 578 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: more Emmett Smith at seventeen? There you go. How about 579 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 1: Ever Walls at nowhere and z. How about two that 580 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: are going in round and they still wouldn't have picked me? 581 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 1: And ever Everson should be in the Hall of Fame. 582 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: And there's two more that weren't drafted that I want 583 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 1: to draw fame next year where Harrison Drew Pearson. All right, 584 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: that's the pick weren't Yeah, all right, we continue with 585 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: more mix shots, and I gotta hear this about Randy 586 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 1: Gregory and Jalen Hurts.

That's the one. All right, 636 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: What do you guys think of Jalen Hurts or cowboys 637 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: shaking in their boots that Jalen Hurts might be the 638 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 1: Eagles quarterback going forward. I'll allow him being a rookie. 639 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: I understand the things he does, but I didn't understand 640 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: some of the things he did to create the mistakes 641 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: that really cost them the game. You got to be 642 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:57,320 Speaker 1: able to throw passes more accurately when you're throwing the 643 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: seventeen yard out, when you're throw own the ball over 644 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 1: the middle. Look, the easiest pass for rookie to throw 645 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: is a deep pass because generally it's either it's either 646 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 1: a big play. It might be incomplete and no harm, 647 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: no file, And if it gets intercepted, yeah, our pass 648 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 1: interference as we saw on the one, and if it 649 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,359 Speaker 1: gets intercepted, it's like a punt. So to me, that's 650 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: the the money throws. He still got to work on, 651 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 1: and he's still got to be able to stand in 652 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 1: the pocket and not run around and think he's going 653 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 1: to create all the time when you can't do it, 654 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 1: and I think, you know what, I think Kyler Murray 655 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: struggled with that a little bit too. In this last game. 656 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:47,399 Speaker 1: His short medium passes were very inaccurate and that's why 657 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: they were struggling too. And you know, he's a rookie, 658 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: and Bill you talked about it about what the oh 659 00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: you fans remember from the mistakes that he may last week. 660 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: But one thing we did know, he gave them a 661 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,439 Speaker 1: better chance than what costs them wins would have done. 662 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 1: I really would have felt better if Cowsom would have 663 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 1: started that game. And let's be real, we talked about 664 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: this earlier as well. Coach Peterson, for some reason, as 665 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 1: good a coach as he is, I think he really 666 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 1: did misread this game. I think he put his quarterback 667 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 1: in a tough position than tougher position than he should have, 668 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:31,799 Speaker 1: as we talked about I should have. I think they 669 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 1: should have leaned on the running game more against the 670 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense that hadn't really shown it can stop it. 671 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 1: I think he kind of fell in love with what 672 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 1: Hush did the last couple of weeks, thinking it would 673 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: kind of be that simple to develop, and it really didn't. 674 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 1: Just the game itself was different. The Cowboys were playing differently. 675 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:56,479 Speaker 1: We improved, We actually made some adjustments in the second half, 676 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: and really I think the second quarter that I don't 677 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 1: think Peterson really adjusted well too offensively. So to put 678 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: your rookie quarterback who was just starting at his third game, 679 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,720 Speaker 1: when you're looking at defense that they'd been playing thirteen 680 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: fourteen games already, he really tried to he expected too 681 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 1: much from his quarterback, or he expected too little from 682 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense, you know. And I thought that it 683 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 1: still looked back at the key thing was getting a lead, 684 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 1: because then you knew what they had to do right. 685 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: And once they got that lead and they got them 686 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 1: in a couple down in distances, especially on second and 687 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 1: long or third and long, they went to a three 688 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 1: man front rushing the quarterback and brought in six dbs. 689 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 1: One of those was C. J. Goodwin, who was kind 690 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: of hovering closer to the line of scrimmage and just 691 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 1: kind of keeping an eye on Hurts, making sure they 692 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: had somebody there fast enough to kind of keep up 693 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: with them. And I think that's why you saw some 694 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 1: of those runs times outside kind of shut down and 695 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: he wasn't gaining as many yards because I think at 696 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,720 Speaker 1: halftime he might have had the majority of his rushing 697 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 1: yards if I can look this up real quick after 698 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,800 Speaker 1: I said it. But but really, when you when you 699 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: look at the adjustments that were made, I thought that 700 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 1: good were not only spied, but they seemed to take 701 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: liberties and when they would go from spying to just 702 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 1: being an extra rushing because they came late. Sometimes sometimes 703 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 1: Goodman will walk up and he's looking for Hurst to 704 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 1: maybe peek out from the pocket. And but there were 705 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: also times when it seems like he took a chance 706 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 1: and just took a shot at it. And I think 707 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: all of that just confused a young, young quarterback. And 708 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: really at that time we were already in control. And 709 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 1: then for me second week in Ago, I mean, we 710 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: could go more than that. But I thought Keller Moore 711 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: did a very good job of calling plays within himself. 712 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 1: You know, he didn't ask for anyone to do too much. 713 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 1: He didn't take too many gambles. He stayed with within 714 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: uh Dalton's ability to run the team. That play to 715 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:24,240 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, that was really a set up play. That's 716 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: the kind of coaching that I love from offensive coordinators. 717 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb had run that same route over and over 718 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:32,960 Speaker 1: again to where he just went out to the flat, 719 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 1: went out to the flat. Here it is the perfect time. 720 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 1: We're on the other side close for the fifty yard line. 721 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 1: Ceedee faced the out after he came in motion, went 722 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 1: straight up the field. Perfect pass by Dalton. He didn't 723 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,839 Speaker 1: wait too long. He threw it right way and need 724 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: to be simple pitch, pitch and catch and there you are. 725 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,399 Speaker 1: You're looking at what was that a fifty sixty yard 726 00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: touchdown by Ceedee Lamb And to me, that was all 727 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: Keller Moore. He just really did a good job of 728 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 1: making the plays that didn't put our offense and to 729 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: carryous situations. Yeah, and what they did on that plays 730 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 1: they put him in motion left to right and they 731 00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 1: motioned them into the slot and as you pointed out, 732 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,800 Speaker 1: it looked like he was gonna just go up field. 733 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: But basically what he did is he ran a wheel 734 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: route for with a white and he went to the outside. 735 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 1: The outside guy came inside and all that poor as 736 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: Jacque kiss and then occupied the safety. That's what was 737 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: the right The guy inside took the safety out of 738 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:38,359 Speaker 1: the safety so that desk right, kept the safety out 739 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 1: of it, and that's when you hit him right in 740 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: that pocket. And but that was You know, plays like 741 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 1: that they can work on anybody. I don't give a 742 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,399 Speaker 1: dog on who the defensive defensive play there that can 743 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: work on anyone. So you're talking about quality plays to 744 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,319 Speaker 1: quality players. That's what I love about. And that poor 745 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 1: corner he got spun around like he was doing pirouettes 746 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 1: on that figure skating. He got spun around so bad. 747 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: Been there, done that. I know the feeling. And by 748 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 1: the way, Hurts had fifty three of his sixty nine 749 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,800 Speaker 1: yards rushing in the first half, get a lead and 750 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,479 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Okay, all that running's not gonna 751 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 1: not gonna work out. So um, you know, for all 752 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 1: the criticism Mike Nolan has gotten, uh, they adjusted and 753 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 1: thought finally been on his butt. Yeah, absolutely, yes, So 754 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 1: you gotta give him give him credit, absolutely yes. Turnovers, 755 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 1: the turnovers the past three four weeks have skyrocketed, And 756 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 1: I don't care, I've been there, I don't care what 757 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 1: your defense is giving up. If you can make turnovers, 758 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 1: it makes up for all of the yards that you 759 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: gave up. Shocking when you can have your top four 760 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: corners available and at one time on the field at 761 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: all at the same time. Amazing, m interesting. That's right, 762 00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 1: all right, Well that does it for a Victory Monday 763 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 1: edition of mix Shots.
