The approved resolution authorizes the league to work 25 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: with the NFL Players Association, the International Federation of American Football, 26 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: and the relevant Olympic authorities to implement rules governing the 27 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: participation of NFL players in flag football, which makes its 28 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: Olympic debut in twenty twenty eight. As you would expect, 29 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: Roger Goodell is feeling goal. 30 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: We're excited to announce today that the NFL owners unanimously 31 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 2: passed the resolution giving every NFL player an opportunity to 32 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 2: play in the Olympics in twenty twenty eight in Los Angeles. 33 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: I think this is news, represents a great opportunity for 34 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 2: the sport, for the NFL. It's truly the next step 35 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 2: in uh making NFL football and football a global sport 36 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 2: for men and women of all ages and all opportunities 37 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: across the globe. We think that's the right thing to do, 38 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: and this is a big step in accomplishing that for 39 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,119 Speaker 2: our players, we think it's a tremendous opportunity for them 40 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 2: to represent their country, Uh, to compete for a gold medal, 41 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: which is the pinnacle of global sports. 42 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 3: Began those you know, three years down the line, and uh, 43 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: they're still planning and who's going to be on the 44 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 3: team and all. But you know, just think about the 45 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 3: chances of you know, playing in Olympics and you know, 46 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 3: getting a gold medal is a dream. So now that 47 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: where we're you know, expanding the game and you know 48 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 3: we're going more globally. 49 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 4: Is pretty cool. 50 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: So who is going to be on Team USA? Tory 51 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: Smith already weighing in saying first selection, Lamar Jackson, start 52 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: finishing out your fantasy flag lineups right now. Kyle Hamilton, 53 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: current Raven safety hosting a South Korean flag, one of 54 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: players with heritage in other countries who potentially could have 55 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: opportunities to represent those nations as well as we bring 56 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: our Steve Whitch into the conversation here just thinking about Korea. 57 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: Judy Kyler Murray, the Arizona Cardins quarterback. I think we 58 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: all look at go that guy's a flag football player. 59 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: That's one of about three hundred players across the NFL, 60 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: as Peter O'Reilly pointed out today, who wear flags on 61 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: their NFL helmets, regardless how the rosters shakeout. And we 62 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: got a few years to figure that. This is a 63 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: big day for the NFL and football in general. 64 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 5: It's a big day for flag football. It's a big 65 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 5: day for football internationally. The NFL has really pushed flag 66 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 5: football as a way to get the rest of the 67 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 5: world in interested in American football, which, as we know 68 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 5: is American football. It has not been played internationally much, 69 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 5: but flag football has been on the. 70 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 6: Rise now for a few years. 71 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 5: The NFL put a lot of muscle behind getting flag 72 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 5: football into the twenty eight Olympics in Los Angeles, and 73 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 5: this is the next step. And let's face it, when 74 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 5: you've got some of the best professional athletes in the 75 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 5: world going to play flag football, as NFL players are, 76 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 5: that is going to attract a lot of eyeballs. 77 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:26,799 Speaker 6: Today. 78 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 7: When they were talking. 79 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 5: About it, league officials, they kept invoking the Dream Team 80 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 5: from nineteen ninety two when you had the best NBA 81 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 5: players in the Olympics and it was quite a show. 82 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 5: There are going to be some restrictions here. We're not 83 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 5: going to have a true Dream Team because it's not 84 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 5: going to be all NFL players, but they're hoping that 85 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 5: what this does for flag football is akin to the 86 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 5: way the Dream Team took the interest in professional basketball 87 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 5: and just exploded. 88 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 7: It, and Judy to dovetail off that. 89 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 8: I mean, you mentioned people like Kyler Murray, you know, 90 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 8: who's got Korean heritage, and some other players with different 91 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 8: heritages from Canada, from from African countries. They're going to 92 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 8: introduce this to their countries, be it American football for 93 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 8: the men's side or the women's side. 94 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 7: Let's not forget the women's part of this. But let's 95 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,559 Speaker 7: look at the NBA. Now. 96 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 8: Some of the biggest stars in the NBA are guys 97 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 8: like Nikola Jokic, Lukadankic, the Greek freak Giannis, You've got 98 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 8: Victor Webbenmeyer. So these are things that the NFL has seen, 99 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 8: the global expansion of the NBA in professional basketball with 100 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 8: international players either you know, playing in the NBA going 101 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 8: back to their countries to compete for them internationally, you know, 102 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 8: in the Olympics and things like this. 103 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 7: So this is a way to spread this in so 104 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 7: many different ways. 105 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 8: But I want to get back to the women's side 106 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 8: of this as well, because remember this is going to 107 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 8: be part of it. We're seeing the expansion of women's 108 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 8: flag football as well, So to be able to have 109 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 8: that along with some big name NFL players again playing 110 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 8: for the United States team, but other countries as well, 111 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 8: this is so that could really take off and help 112 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 8: the global expansion of the game. Help people say I 113 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 8: want my children to play football. So ten years from 114 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 8: now there's this huge global love affair with playing football, 115 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 8: both flag and tackle. This is nothing but a good 116 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 8: day in terms of the expansion that the NFL wants 117 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 8: with its sport. 118 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: You heard justin Jefferson say it's still three years away. Well, 119 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: the qualifying is going to happen in twenty twenty six 120 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: and twenty twenty seven. So the selection process we're talking 121 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: about not just for Team USA, but the other country 122 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: is trying to qualify in the men's bracket. That is 123 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: going to ramp up pretty quickly here on Wednesday. The 124 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: big item on the docket is one that we have 125 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: been talking about now for a couple of months. It 126 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: is a proposal that would ban the tush push and 127 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: beyond the packers filed an updated proposal on Monday night 128 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: that is far broader than the one that they brought 129 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: forward that was tabled at the league meetings back in March. 130 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 1: This more closely mirrors the rule that was on the 131 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: books way back from the start of the league in 132 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: nineteen twenty all the way through two thousand and five, 133 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: and in general, assisting the runner was allowed to happen. 134 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: Once again, there's no pushing and no pulling under the 135 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: proposal now that the Packers are putting forward here, you 136 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: would not be able to grasp a teammate, the block 137 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: an opponent, basically anything that would resemble the touch push, 138 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: not just at the line of scrimmage, but even downfield. 139 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: This would be a dramatic expansion. It remains to be 140 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: see which direction a potential vote on Wednesday will go. 141 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: We do a pretty good idea where the Eagles vote 142 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: is going to be cast. 143 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 9: We'll see that where that goes. It's gonna it's We're 144 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 9: not waiting for very long to figure it out. It's 145 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 9: gonna it's gonna be you know, public tomorrow. And you 146 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 9: know how I feel about it. I think the the 147 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 9: we obviously were at the owner's meetings, we talked about 148 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 9: how we felt about it, and I don't think anyone 149 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 9: could question what my sentiment is on it. So we'll see, 150 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 9: we'll see where what happens with it tomorrow. 151 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: Let's bringing our Brian Baldinger into the conversation. Balding, You've 152 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: had a lot of time to think about this. You've 153 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 1: seen the Eagles and some other teams, but the Eagles 154 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: in particular execute this play at a really high level. 155 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: What more of you learn just in talking to coaches 156 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: and others about this play and the implications if it 157 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: does get banned. 158 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 10: Well, to the Eagles, Tom, and I just saw an 159 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 10: Eagle's prominent Eagles coach we had camp on Sunday. It's 160 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 10: not a gimmick play. It's not a rugby scrum to 161 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 10: the Eagles. In fact, Eagle coaches tell me Tom that 162 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 10: they spent as much time on this particular play as 163 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 10: he do on any play in the playbook. It is 164 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 10: more than just sometimes Friday work on the short yards 165 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 10: goal line. They work on this play around the year. 166 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 10: They talk through it, they walk through it, they film it. 167 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 10: They coach up the individual part of it, where the quarterback. 168 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 4: Is going with the ball. It's game plan. 169 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 10: So this is far more now, I will say this 170 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 10: tom and talking to their offensive line coach Jeff Stotland 171 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 10: years ago about this place, he told me that before 172 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 10: there was a tush push and Nick Sirianni implementing it 173 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 10: into the offense. 174 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 4: When Carson went, who's the quarterback? 175 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 10: They converted quarterback sneaks at a radio thirty six at 176 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 10: thirty eight attempts. Now they worked to a quarterback sneaks, 177 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 10: you know, in their own backyard and on their own 178 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 10: thirty yard line back then, but they still converted. 179 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 4: So they will adjust. Nick will adjust. 180 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 10: But I do think that the Eagles approach this play 181 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 10: differently than a lot of other plays, and the way 182 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 10: that it's described around the league as a gimmick, as 183 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 10: a rugby scrump. 184 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 4: To the Eagles, it doesn't fall into any of those categories. 185 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: The critics of this play back in the discussions in March, 186 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: they brought up that it doesn't look like a football play. 187 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: There were also questions about health and safety, even though 188 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: there's no data to show injuries on the play. It's 189 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: about the posture. All that mass coming together a lively 190 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: debate I would imagine occurring tomorrow morning. Here in Minnesota, Baldy, 191 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: thank you very much. The wait is over. In the 192 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: countdown to kickoff has begun.

George 199 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: Pickens joining Ceedee Lamb in that receiver group four quarterback 200 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: Dack Prescott. Pickens already on the field in his new colors. 201 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: Michael Parson is not practicing, but on hand, coach Brian 202 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: Schottenheimer said that he is pleased that so far Michael 203 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: Parsons has done what he's been asked to do. Welcome 204 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: back to the Insiders, Tom Pelaso, Obrian Baldinger back with us. 205 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 7: Along with Jane Slater. 206 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: Jane, how has Brian schottenheimers so far, from what you've seen, 207 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: put his fingerprints on this team? 208 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 11: You know? 209 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 12: Cowboys Nation is obviously fatigued after last season, lots of injuries, 210 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 12: it didn't go the way they wanted Tom and so 211 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 12: fans I think roll their eyes a little bit when 212 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 12: we talk about, well, it feels like there's been a 213 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 12: culture change in Dallas. The word that was used a 214 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 12: lot today. Something I picked up on was energy. I 215 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 12: say that we've said that about Mike McCarthy before Jason 216 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 12: Garrett's last year. I get all of that, but the 217 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 12: approach from Brian Schottenheimer in his first year seems really 218 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 12: analogous to that of a college football coach. In other words, 219 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 12: he is going out of his way to make sure 220 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 12: he's taking these guys to dinners, and. 221 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 11: He jokes that of course he pays for it. The 222 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 11: menu changes, but it's. 223 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 12: Five or six guys and it's drilling down to get 224 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 12: to know who they are. 225 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 11: He said, right now, based on. 226 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 12: The limitations of OTAs, you don't know what your team is. 227 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 12: But talking to Dak, Prescott, Seedee, Lamb, all of those guys, 228 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 12: they say that he is building the culture from the 229 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 12: ground up. Those little things I mean. He even pointed 230 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 12: out with Javonte Williams got here it was important for him. 231 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 11: To get to know why his name. 232 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 12: He named his dog Kodak it's just those small things. 233 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 12: And then there was a pong table back in the 234 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 12: locker room. Again laugh roll your eyes at that, but 235 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 12: he likes to see the competitiveness brought back. And so 236 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 12: one person I talked to, in fact, it was Dante 237 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 12: Fowler who left and went to Washington. 238 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 11: I said, what does it feel like for you? 239 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 12: He said, it feels a little bit like Pete Carroll 240 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 12: the way that he energizes the locker room, which I 241 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 12: thought was interesting because, as you know, Brian Schottenheimer worked 242 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 12: with Pete Carroll, talked about learned a lot from him, 243 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 12: acknowledged that he. 244 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 11: Made some mistakes. 245 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 12: So I get the sense that he has really used 246 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 12: some of that inside edge that he had already having 247 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 12: familiarity inside the building to really build this culture. And 248 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 12: I think that's why you're seeing the respect that him 249 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 12: and Micah Parsons have throughout this deal. 250 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 11: Micah was not there today. 251 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 12: He's been around the facility, but he's been in close 252 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 12: communication with them. 253 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 11: He understands that this is a business decision, and I 254 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 11: get the sense. 255 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 12: Again that this Micah Parsons thing is going to get done. 256 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 12: As I explained to everyone, his agent also has skins 257 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 12: in this Why is he going to go out there 258 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 12: unless they roll out the red carpet for Micah and 259 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 12: give them a contract that blows away. 260 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 11: Why would they get this done as. 261 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 12: They're waiting for guys like Trey Hendrickson, etc. So there 262 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 12: is a process to this, but I really like the 263 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 12: approach and the way that Schottenheimer is trying to build 264 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 12: this culture in this locker room. 265 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: Baldy, you just saw George Pickens were in that number 266 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: thirteen Cowboys Jersey. You got him, he got CD Lamb. 267 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: What are your expectations? How did the defense stop this? 268 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 4: Well? 269 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 10: I mean Jay can talk about culture and what Brian's 270 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 10: trying to do here and energizing the locker room all that, 271 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 10: and that's all that is important, but they need an 272 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 10: upgrade in town. I mean Ceedee Lamb has been the 273 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 10: focal point of this offense since he got there. Last 274 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 10: year he had one hundred and one catches. The next 275 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 10: coaches receiver was Jalen Tobert with forty nine at receiver. 276 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 10: The year before it was even worse, Ceedee Lamb had 277 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 10: to earned thirty five catches and the number one offensive 278 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 10: football Brandon Cooks, had fifty four. They really have not 279 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 10: had a good ex receiver since Dez Bryant. Was there 280 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 10: somebody that can go attack your corner on the outside 281 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 10: one on ones and win one on ones and give 282 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 10: back that option and then might not take anything away 283 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 10: from CD. He's still going to get targeted a great 284 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 10: deal because of the way they move him around the 285 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 10: matchups that he can win. His toughness in the middle 286 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 10: of field is unquestioned. But they need a guy on 287 00:13:58,360 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 10: the outside. 288 00:13:58,880 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 4: That can win. 289 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 10: And I can take a lot of that away from CD. 290 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 10: And I think you got Jake ferguson a tight end, 291 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 10: you got the backs that could catch the ball. I 292 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 10: think this is an important component to this offense. And 293 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 10: if they can keep you know, sometimes that immaturity comes 294 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 10: out of you know, George Pickens at times. If they 295 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 10: can keep him really locked in, just going me upgrade 296 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 10: for this offense all the way around. 297 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: Jane. Last season was a mess of injuries for the Cowboys. 298 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: We heard from Dak Prescott, he's on track. It seems 299 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: like clear for everything but contact Trayvon Diggs though it 300 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: sounds like is further away. Where do we stand? 301 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 6: Well? 302 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 12: Before I get into Trayvon, there was a funny moment 303 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 12: where he was asked, you know, where are you in 304 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 12: your you know, recoveries, you feel ahead of schedule, And 305 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 12: he dropped a little bit in a f bomb and 306 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 12: he said, well, my season was over early last season, 307 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 12: so my off season started early. 308 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 11: He says, he's feeling really good. 309 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 12: Obviously he can't get into the contact right now, but 310 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 12: I saw him energize just coming off the field, talking 311 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 12: about how excided he was about one particular throw. But 312 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 12: I don't know if I've really seen that side of Dak. 313 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 12: I mean a lot of these guys, I think, because 314 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 12: they weren't in the facility last year, are just excited 315 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 12: to be back in there and playing with their brothers. 316 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 11: Well, let's get into Treyvon Diggs. 317 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 12: Trayvon Diggs entered that leftnee again last year. Remember he 318 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 12: missed most of the twenty twenty three season last year 319 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 12: after eleven games, came out with this one. I checked 320 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 12: in with that this is coming from doctor Sharif Toba. 321 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 12: He is down there working out in Miami, and it's 322 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 12: my understanding. You know, again this is the same leftknee. 323 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 12: They've been really been locked up with doctor Cooper, who 324 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 12: did the surgery. The big thing that they had to 325 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 12: be careful with is you want to protect the healing 326 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 12: of the surgery, but you've also got to make sure 327 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 12: that you're making sure the other me and the other 328 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 12: leg the right side is in balance as you're losing 329 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 12: some of that muscle and the endurance on the left side. 330 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 12: So it's my understanding they've just now been cleared to 331 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 12: do some low intensity work to get back on the field, 332 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 12: some positions, Doyll movements and again closing that. 333 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 11: Gap with the imbalance. 334 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 12: They're doing a lot of band work, they're doing some electricalsulation. 335 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 12: I still get the sense that he's a ways away. 336 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 12: I don't know if we're going to necessarily see him 337 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 12: at training camp here guys, but I think that they 338 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 12: like the progress that they're seeing with him right now. 339 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 12: But I think that's why you're seeing some people out 340 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 12: there say, what are the Cowboys going to do at 341 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 12: the cornerback position in his absence?

First can the forty nine ers do 657 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 5: it again and reclaim the top. Spot let's bring in our, 658 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 5: Guys Steve weish And Brian baldinger to discuss. It all, Right, 659 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 5: WEISH i will hit you with this one. First what division. 660 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 7: Is most of For? 661 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 5: Grebs is it THE Nfc? 662 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 8: West it is THE Nfc, West, judy because, look The, 663 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 8: RAMS i think they're going to be very. Good but 664 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 8: this is a ten win team that had the same 665 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 8: win loss record as The Seattle, seahawks who could be. 666 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 7: Very good as. Well with some of the changes that they've. 667 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 8: Made they feel that their improvements we know The Arizona 668 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 8: cardinals on paper looked vastly improved and they made some 669 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 8: strides last, year. 670 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 7: And then of course they're the forty nine. 671 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 8: Ers, yeah they've got some concerns along that offensive, line 672 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 8: but the rest of that teams still be pretty, good 673 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 8: especially because they've got that. Pedigree SO i think top 674 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 8: to bottom there could be a lot of shuffling going 675 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 8: on in THE Nfc. 676 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 4: WEST i kind of think it's THE Nfc north. 677 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 10: SKY i, mean if you think about going Into week 678 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 10: seventeen last, year The Minnesota vikings In detroit played for 679 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 10: supremacy in The north with fourteen to two. 680 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 4: Records, yeah and The Green Bay packers were right behind. 681 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 10: Them they won eleven, games went To, philadelphia didn't embarrass 682 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 10: themselves In. Philadelphia they had had some healthy. Receivers maybe 683 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 10: they might have pushed them a little bit. Further here 684 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 10: comes back To golden a bunch Of brooks that might 685 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 10: help that. Offense and then we all feel Like Dayleb 686 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 10: williams has got a good coach And Ben johnson and 687 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 10: they should be. Better SO i feel like that division 688 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 10: just be on the success they had a year. Ago 689 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 10: three playoff teams and the records that they, had that 690 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 10: one might be the most up for, grabs especially In 691 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 10: detroit losing their two. 692 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 4: Coordinators. 693 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 5: RIGHT i wrote about this ON nfl dot com this, 694 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 5: week AND i agree with, You.

Trouble they lost all these key 701 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 10: components to the wide receiving. Core all he did is 702 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 10: go out and win thirteen, games and if they didn't 703 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 10: sit their starters last week Against New, england it might 704 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 10: have been. Fourteen they've won the division four years or 705 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 10: five years in a. 706 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 4: ROW i think everybody else is. 707 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 10: Changing coaches and changing quarterbacks and changing general. 708 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 4: Managers trying to catch up to The Buffalo. 709 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 10: BILLS i still see them the heavy favor to win 710 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 10: THE Afc. 711 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 4: EAST i don't know that anybody is ready to contend with. 712 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 10: Them, jeff she had is a vibe for their sixth 713 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 10: straight division. 714 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 4: Title. 715 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 8: Paldy you KNOW i almost went with you as to 716 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,879 Speaker 8: what our old Friend Mike mack would say with the 717 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 8: low hanging. Fruit The Buffalo, bills, absolutely BUT i think 718 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 8: it's The Houston texans. 719 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 7: In THE Afc south as. 720 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 8: WELL i, mean they've made some changes that offensive coordinated 721 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:27,720 Speaker 8: offensive line coach. 722 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 7: To need a changes.

Nfl but then what 725 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 8: else is there in the. Division you've got a coaching 726 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:41,760 Speaker 8: change In, Jacksonville you've got a quarterback competition In, indianapolis 727 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 8: and a rookie quarterback In.

Him the one thing 822 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 16: he noticed is a guy that hasn't played a ton 823 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 16: of football or you, know been out conditioning maybe for 824 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 16: the last two months because he was. 825 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 6: On a little bit of a. 826 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 16: Tour the guy can run. FOREVER i, mean he just 827 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 16: kind of goes runs her out, runs back. RUNS i 828 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:57,320 Speaker 16: mean you could tell he's he's in football shape and he. 829 00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 16: Was you, know he's done a nice, job you, Know, 830 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 16: edgar the, Coaches ron milis those guys have done a 831 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 16: great job of meeting with them when they've had time 832 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 16: to do, so And travis has worked hard at getting 833 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 16: this stuff. 834 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: Right The jaguarder are starting Out Travis hunter a wide, 835 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 1: receiver but they're also integrating him into the defensive, backroom 836 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: which raises this, Question, steve which of all the wild 837 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: types of two way records and otherwise The Travis hunter could? 838 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 1: Break which of? These could you see the number two 839 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:27,320 Speaker 1: overall pick actually? 840 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 4: Breaking? 841 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 8: WELL i Love dante from our research department coming up 842 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 8: with a lot of these great potential. RECORDS i am 843 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 8: thinking in a, game a receiving touchdown and an, interception 844 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 8: whether it's on A Hail mary type of interception or 845 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,840 Speaker 8: whether he's doing somebody. UP i think this is the 846 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 8: most realistic because he's probably is going to be the 847 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 8: number two overall wide receiver on his team because Of 848 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 8: Brian Thomas junior being number. 849 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: One, JUDY i. 850 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 5: Would agree with that, one BUT i would also add 851 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 5: playing twelve hundred snaps in a SEASON i think is 852 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 5: probably within. REACH i don't know if we're actually going 853 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,360 Speaker 5: to get one hundred snaps per, game which he was 854 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 5: doing in, college and he seems to be perfectly happy 855 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 5: to try to do in THE, nfl BUT i think 856 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 5: he could get to twelve hundred. 857 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: Overall, YEAH i did one of those lines on that, 858 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: graphic say start multiple games on both offense and. Defense 859 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: that's obviously even if he's not a full time player 860 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 1: on the, defense he's probably. Starting you're gonna have him 861 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: coming off the bench and being your dime. Corner you, 862 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 1: know if you're gonna put him out, there you're gonna 863 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 1: put him out there early in the. Game so give 864 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,919 Speaker 1: me that. One and, honestly with how Good Travis hunter, 865 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: is maybe like three or four of the, others the 866 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,240 Speaker 1: really interesting thing would, be could you potentially See Judy 867 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 1: Travis hunter being the offensive and defensive working in the. 868 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 1: YEAR i would love.

YEAR 874 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 8: i just don't think he's gonna get that many. Reps 875 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 8: and there's gonna be an edge rusher or somebody who 876 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,719 Speaker 8: could do. It but he could get one of the, 877 00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 8: two maybe the offensive rookie of the. YEAR i can 878 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 8: see that impossible. 879 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,759 Speaker 1: Picks go a long way toward deciding those types of. Wards, 880 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: Judy we've got a lot more to come here from 881 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: the league meeting. 882 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 5: Tomorrow, yes have you heard about the touch, Push, well 883 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 5: we might talk about a toush push. 884 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,360 Speaker 1: Tomorrow we're also going to have a potential vote on 885 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,760 Speaker 1: some tweaks to the onside, kick maybe to raise incrementally 886 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: the recovery.
