On another victory Monday. Gosh, that's 0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:16.319 so good to hear. Oh there's the music again. We 0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:20.200 always are celebrating a Cowboys dub, especially in a year 0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:23.880 like last year, where it took you until what week fourteen? 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:26.680 Week fifteen to get your fourth win, and the Cowboys 0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:28.560 are now four and one and we've only had to 0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:31.200 deal with it for five weeks of the year. Feeling good, 0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:37.320 Billy Ray, Feeling good, Billy Ray. Wow good, what a weekend? Yeah, 0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:41.080 what a weekend. You're on a specific high, aren't you. Yeah. 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:44.360 You made me choose between the what's the better crowd pregame, 0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:47.080 Ray Carpet, Kyle Field or at and T. What am 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:49.600 I supposed to say? Did you start the field? Did 0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:52.120 you store in the field? I store my living roommate. Yeah, 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:55.720 I stormed that living room. I love it, man. I 0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:57.280 was looking for you. I was looking for you us. 0:01:57.320 --> 0:01:59.920 I had no peas out there somewhere, but it was 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:02.520 in the stadium yet. But he's gonna get in there somehow. Man. 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:04.680 It's just been a crazy weekend of sports. I mean 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.080 from the Texas OU game, which was nuts and I 0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:09.880 didn't even get to see the end of it because 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:15.080 at another game. But then the fight. Did you did 0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:17.720 you get Chancy the fight? Did you? Oh? Man, what 0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:21.360 a fight Isaiah did? What a fight? It was? Tyson 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:26.240 Fury had a couple of fights on the field days. Yeah, 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:28.639 that was That was a And then you know, obviously 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:33.440 Sunday was just cowboys were just it was a taking 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:35.800 care of business sort of day. Yeah. I mean it 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:38.560 didn't start off great. You had a couple of hiccups 0:02:38.600 --> 0:02:40.840 early on. You were able to right the ship and 0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:43.079 then just put them away. I mean that was kind 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:47.639 of it was almost step for step the same analysis 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:49.519 that we would have had on a Carolina game where 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.000 Carolina came out punched him in the mouth. I wouldn't 0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:53.880 say it was really a hiccup from the Cowboys in 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:55.560 that game. I think that was more of Carolina being 0:02:55.600 --> 0:03:01.320 a better team than New York early on, whereas you 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:03.160 kind of shot yourself in the foot early and well 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:05.679 after they lose to the to the Eagles. I don't 0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:08.360 know if that can actually be said anymore about Carolina, 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:10.079 but good point. I mean, but you're right. I mean, 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:12.400 they faced adversity in both of these games, and I 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:14.440 think the turnaround from last year to this year is 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:18.919 how they in turn throw another blow. So I think 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.320 that's that's again, that's the biggest difference from last year. 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:23.639 I'd love to see it in every level that we have. 0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:26.800 I mean, the offense had some let downs, had some turnovers, 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:29.079 defense held up the end of the bark and got 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:32.120 those guys the ball back. And man, this Dak is 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:34.520 balling right now. He's balling it and it may not 0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:37.200 have started out that way. But really I wanted to 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.520 ask you about the interview yes, last last night from 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.880 Dak and just admitting, you know about his nerves. Yeah, 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:45.760 I know Chris is looking for that cut. We'll see 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:48.440 if we could get it. But he was blatantly honest 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:52.240 about you know, I said, I wasn't thinking about the 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.839 injury from last year, but once I got out there, 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:56.800 it was in the back of my mind. I saw 0:03:56.840 --> 0:03:59.520 the cart when se Quon Barkley gets carted off, and 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:01.360 I'm like, get that thing away from me. I don't 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:03.280 want to look at it. I don't know. I mean, 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.000 I think he was downplaying it during the week, but 0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:07.080 I wonder if you get into that situation, you get 0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:09.520 on the field and you realize, WHOA, this is kind 0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:11.160 of eerie. I mean, because we were talking about it 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.800 all week, and there's times when he gets hit and 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:17.359 somebody's down around his ankles. I mean, I ye, I 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:20.520 kind of blink, you know, and so you can imagine 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:24.400 what he's thinking. So that was pretty candid from a 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:27.760 big time player to say I had a mental fog 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:29.599 early in the game and I had to snap out 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.720 of it, and maybe he can finally bury this thing, 0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:34.560 like he said during the spring, like just finally it's 0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:38.719 over now let's just move forward. What do you think Isai? Yeah, 0:04:38.720 --> 0:04:40.200 I mean I think it was pretty apparent that he 0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:43.200 wasn't on his game early on. I know, Kylin never 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:47.160 arguing about it in the studio. From from a player's perspective, 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:48.760 I could tell that he was just wasn't there. Now, 0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.320 I didn't know what the reason was, but his decision making, 0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:53.200 his release points in terms of where he released the 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:56.200 ball at all, those things just weren't on point early on. 0:04:56.240 --> 0:04:58.080 But then you know Tagan's point, he figured it out 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:01.640 and got things rolling. If that was what was bothering him, 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:03.719 then I'm glad that he buried that and got it 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:05.320 out the way. I mean, obviously, you're coming up with 0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:08.480 one day out from exactly a year from the previous 0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:11.240 injury sae quon bar. You know, Barkley getting taken out 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:14.279 on a cart, guys grabbing his ankle on him sitting 0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:15.640 up there, you know, trying to throw the ball. I mean, 0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:17.760 there's a lot of things that kind of make them 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:20.320 have flashbacks. He lit with a little pts in terms 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:21.840 of as an injury, but um, you know, at the 0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:23.240 end of the day he showed up and played the 0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:24.760 rest of the game and played it well, and we're 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:27.880 three hundred and sixty five days today. I mean, it 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:32.200 happened October eleventh, twenty twenty and here we are October eleven, 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:34.880 twenty twenty one. And maybe this is the chance, maybe 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:36.720 now that it's come full circle, you've made it past 0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:40.120 your game. The Cowboys not reporting any new injuries following 0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:43.359 last night's win. So maybe this is the chance for 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.240 it to come full circle and to move on and 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:49.080 to continue his I mean magnificent season. He threw what 0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:52.719 nine in completions, ten in completions and three touchdowns. Again, 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:54.919 he's thrown at least three touchdowns in four of the 0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:57.520 five games this year. It's hard to play ball better 0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.880 than Dak Prescott is playing ball right now. Yeah, it is. 0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:03.120 And I just think that one interception, man, that was 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:05.599 a hell of an athletic play by the defensive the 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:09.200 linebacker for the Giants, you know, and you gotta give 0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:11.640 credit where credit is due, but again that through I 0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:15.760 want to go the throw to CD. That was a boy. 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:18.040 He couldn't have walked that ball up and handed it 0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:20.560 to CD in and better. That was just awesome and 0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:23.600 also really good to see CD get back in the 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:27.080 groove of things for the offense costs for a while. Obviously, 0:06:27.120 --> 0:06:29.480 Amari Cooper, they're gonna be rolling coverage his way to 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:31.839 try and take nineteen out. But just good to see 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:37.320 eighteen get his and Cedric no, well, what Cedric Wilson 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:39.880 is balling out too? Yeah, I think there were three 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:41.800 throws in that ball game that stuck out to me. 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.919 One was the Cooper touchdown in the middle where he 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.039 kind of fitted in between two guys. The other one 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:49.680 was Ceedee Lamb of course over the top and like 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:52.040 you just said, man, that was a dime. And then 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:53.800 the other one was the throw to Cedric Wilson on 0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:56.320 the sideline where Wilson made a magnificent grab, but that 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.120 ball could not have been placed better from Dak Prescott. 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.400 I mean, he's dealing it. But now we're starting to see, 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.720 especially with guys like Lamb getting more involved and then 0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:06.800 Wilson coming in and making a couple of plays, the 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:08.720 depth of the wide receiving corps that we knew was 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:11.559 there already. Yeah, there's gonna be a robust free agent 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:15.600 market for Cedric Wilson spring. I think he's gonna have 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:18.400 opportunities as an undrestricted free agent, if if, if the 0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:21.360 Cowboys let him get there. You mentioned the throw to 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:24.960 Amari Cooper as well, that he threaded that in there 0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:27.880 on a nice kind of double move there. But yeah, 0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.720 Michael Gallup's not even back yet, and we're talking about 0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:33.560 the production of this offense. Putting up forty four points 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.520 despite and five hundred yards and five hundred yards it 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:39.120 felt like a college game. It really did. And that's 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:42.240 with turning the ball over twice in your first three drives, 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:46.000 and then the second drive of the game, Dak hits 0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:48.200 Dalton Schultz right in the hands in the end zone 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:51.240 and he drops it. So three points out of those 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:53.679 first three drives. They very easily could have topped fifty 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:56.400 points in this game. And you mentioned the five hundred 0:07:56.480 --> 0:08:00.120 yards the interception with Dak he kind of telegraphed, did 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:01.960 I mean he was staring down Zeke in the flat? 0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:04.400 And it actually Pat Mahomes had the same pick last night. 0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:06.480 You know where you're trying to you know, you're trying 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:10.520 to get it over an athletic defensive lineman, and then 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:14.320 you know the snap exchanges haven't been consistently great, and 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:17.360 that might have factored into the fumble. As well. But 0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:20.280 when you could do what they did despite those mistakes, 0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:23.240 and I know the Giants are not on their level, 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:26.680 the record shows it, but that's still impressive, really really 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:28.480 impressive the way they're playing right now. I want to 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:30.640 go back to the interception because Isaiah, I remember you 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.240 saying something about this yesterday. But who do you fault 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:36.880 on that interception? Is it Dak Prescott for looking down 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:38.760 a receiver or do you chalk it up to just 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:41.000 a defender bank and a good play. Yeah, it's straight mechanics. 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:43.240 There's a combination of both. I mean, obviously just the NFL. 0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:45.240 So you know, everybody can make a play, but you 0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:47.520 know you have to allow for defensive linement to make 0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:50.880 play sometimes when you give them that opportunity. His footwork 0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:53.640 was bad, he was drifting away, he threw it, you know, 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:55.720 he obviously was staring him down. All those things playing 0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:57.360 to a party as to why the ball was the 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.240 way it was, I would chalk it up if he 0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:02.160 didn't do it again, And it was almost he almost 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.240 had two of the same type of plays. Um, so 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:06.079 it was it was just bad mechanics. And again he 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:09.719 ready admitted his mentally, wasn't there so he'll sure that up. 0:09:10.320 --> 0:09:12.959 But you know, those are plays when that you can't make. Obviously, 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:14.880 you as we look down the road and as we 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:17.120 raise their expectations for the for the team in the organization, 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:19.760 those are plays that you just can't make that you 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:21.840 need to make those corrections now against these teams that 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:24.320 we're playing against, because the teams that come down the road, 0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:26.320 it would be a little bit more difficult and they 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:29.840 would take advantage of those. Ain't it amazing how quarterbacks, 0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:32.440 each quarterback, those top tier quarterbacks is so different. Aaron 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:35.480 Rodgers made a throw in overtime to the Randall Cobb 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.960 backing up, falling back. It makes that throw, and you know, 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:41.920 nobody's talking about how technical he is or isn't. He 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:44.920 just gets it done. And so like I'm not gonna 0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:48.280 psy psycho analyze the dub we dubbed it, you know. 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:51.200 And the great thing about yesterday, we've been talking about 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.640 the one two punch of Tony Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:56.960 and we saw it on full display. And I've said 0:09:56.960 --> 0:09:58.880 it before, you know, and we talk about the money 0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:01.439 that Zeke has made and this one two points. As 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.840 long as Zeke is the knockout blow which you saw yesterday, 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:06.640 and he just pretty much sealed the deal. I love it. 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:10.280 Back to back one hundred yard games ties Mike Levin 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:13.240 for forty seventh up on one hundred yard games as well, 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:15.439 So I mean all of that is big time. Man. 0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:18.200 He's in great company and just seem to be getting 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:21.480 going as you see his reps are, his carries go 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:24.600 up after each and every week. That confidence of that 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:27.560 offensive line is skyrocketing right now. I mean you saw 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.160 it early in the game. You saw it throughout the game. 0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:33.280 You see Cedric or excuse me, Connor Williams getting in 0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:35.719 a little bit of a scuffle here and there. I mean, 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:37.800 they have each other's back, and you can see that 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:40.840 confidence growing, especially when you run for two hundred freaking 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:44.240 yards again. Yeah, and he saw the athleticism of the 0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:47.120 old line too, Connor Williams pulling to the right. They 0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:50.680 ran right a lot, which says something about Terrence Steele 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:55.040 and the way he's blocking. Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.200 both over five yards of carry and I don't know 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:59.000 for the for the season what it is, but they're 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:02.800 both close to that average. It's it's ridiculous right now, 0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.600 the way they're running the football. Yeah, and you know, 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:08.800 you guys asked me in pregame kind of what the 0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:10.520 approach should be, and I felt like it was a 0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:13.520 cop out, but it's it seriously, is like when when 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:17.000 the Giants play back, just run at him, and that's 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:18.600 what they did, and they tried to mix up their 0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:20.400 coverages a little bit. They would stack the box. And 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.640 that's one thing Mike McCarthy liked out of this game 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.040 was they knew we were going to run it, they 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:27.319 tried to fit it that way against it, and we 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:29.439 were still able to run with success. So that's encouraging 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:31.319 going forward too. Can we give a shout out to 0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:35.080 Dalton Schultz, Yes, definitely. I think he's obviously put all 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.640 his firepower we have. He's being overlooked. And the other thing, 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:42.160 just in retrospect, he's balling. Dalton Shorts is balling, and 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:43.880 not only in the stat sheet, but the things that 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.160 he's doing also in a run game, he's blocking his 0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:48.760 butt off. He's obviously he's under he's under size in 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:50.800 terms of the ability to block somebody's defense alignment, but 0:11:50.840 --> 0:11:53.120 he's given it a one hundred percent effort, the things 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:55.760 that he's doing in terms of taking coverages away from 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:57.880 guys and allowing other guys to get plays. And then 0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:00.320 he's been almost averaging six dog on catches a game. 0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:02.880 And one game he didn't have six catches was the Chargers. 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:05.079 He had two catches. Every other game he's had six catches. 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:08.160 He had six for seventy nine yesterday leading receiver. Yeah, no, second, 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:10.760 leading the second leader eighty four. I'm sorry he had 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:12.520 the most catches, yes, correct, but I mean he I 0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:15.679 mean six six catches a game almost on average. Um, 0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:17.640 you know, he has three touchdowns in these five games. 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.400 This dude is bawling. Shout out to Linda Wales, Linda 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:22.640 Wales in the tight end room of the coach forgetting 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.400 this dude turn around. Jarwin is is present, but I 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:27.680 think obviously now when you look at some of these 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:30.760 more in dire passing situations, it's shots out there. It's 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.240 not Jarwin, and I think you talk about it. It's 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:34.680 just the things that doesn't show up on the stat 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:37.280 sheet for Schultz, you know, taking that coverage where they're 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:39.960 having to honor him, but also his blocking that dash 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.600 refreshing because we didn't feel like we had that and 0:12:42.920 --> 0:12:45.080 you know we were looking to Sprinkle and other guys. 0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:46.840 But when you can, you don't. You don't have to 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.360 trade out your guys, especially on running players. And Scholtz 0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:52.480 it's handling business like man eighty six he bawling. Yeah, 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.800 he's And he's become such a security blanket for Dak 0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:59.640 Prescott that it's it's uncanny. It's almost every time Prescott's 0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:02.280 in trouble and he's seeing that clock tick tick tick 0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:04.400 tick in his head. He looks over and there's eighty 0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:06.880 six open ready to catch a football. And that's why 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.600 he gets those grabs every game and he has six 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:12.439 catches along the way because Dak knows he can have 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:16.040 a guy like Dalton Schultz to rely on. Additionally, I 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:19.280 mean he's such a success story from a guy who's 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:22.360 just worked hard. I mean, he came into this league 0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:25.679 as a mid round pick, somebody that at least at 0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:28.079 the early parts of his career did not live up 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:32.679 to expectations. And you ask anybody in the locker room, 0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:35.520 first guy in, last guy to leave, I mean Dalton 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:37.760 Schultz is right in that group of names that would 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:39.880 be said there. I mean, we see it every time 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:41.559 we're allowed to watch practice, he's out there on the 0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.280 jugs machine, far after everybody's already gone back into the 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:46.719 locker room. So kudos the Schultz to be ready for 0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:49.000 an opportunity like this and really carving out a role 0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:51.360 in an offense that, at least going into the year, 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.439 we thought it would be kind of hard to carve 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:57.240 out a role in. Yeah, well, Jarwin obviously last year 0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:01.240 and the injury versus the Rams, everybody was kind of 0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:03.520 thinking what are we gonna do? Because Schultz was just 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:06.679 an unproven commodity on this offense. He showed last year 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.560 what he could do. He was that guy last year 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.600 and this year he's just a continuation of it. Obviously, 0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:14.200 you talk about this coach and just instill those great 0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:15.920 things that you're starting to see. I just love to 0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.800 see our young guys take that curve, that learning curve 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.000 and just run with him. That's what he's doing right now. 0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:23.840 So can't fault him for being who he is. But 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:25.480 like you said, man, all the things that are not 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:27.840 showing up on the stat sheet, eighty six is doing. Yeah, 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:30.000 he's already. I'm just a man. He's already at forty 0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:33.480 five percent of what the yards said he got last year. Already, 0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:37.480 he's already of the yard he had gained last year. 0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:41.240 Pro Bowl, Yeah, he was in the conversation last year. 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:46.600 Don't be surprised, exactly conversation right now, he's definitely the 0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:51.120 best in the NFC West. He's sorry, and he's well, 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:53.120 I'm trying to think of an NFC tight end that 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:57.200 would be better specifically right now. I mean, Gronk is fantastic. 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.040 He's also been banged up. He not available to a 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:05.600 couple of weeks kittles her yet. I mean, I'm not 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:07.640 saying he's a better player, but in terms of the 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:09.760 production he's had, it's hard to argue. But he would 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:11.280 be a Pro Bowl tight end at this point. And 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:14.000 when you're in an offense that's leading the league in scoring. 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:15.840 They're up to thirty four points a game. Right now, 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:19.680 everybody gets more attention, yeah, more, Yeah, more opportunities for 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:22.400 him and he I'm not comparing him to Jason Witten, 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:24.200 but it is kind of Witten like right now what 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:28.200 he is for Dak, especially the way defenses are playing. Uh, 0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:30.520 some of that shell stuff and that underneath stuff is there, 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:33.440 and and credit to him for finding spots, you know, 0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:35.840 getting open. It helps when like you said, it's it's 0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:39.040 receivers running certain routes to get guys open. They're scheming 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:40.880 it well too. Yeah, And to your point, you know, 0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:43.560 the more success your team has, the more attention that's 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:46.480 on the organization, especially when you're the Dallas Cowboys. Um, 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:48.000 but there's gonna be a lot of guys. I feel 0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:49.480 like if we stay on his track that will make 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:51.480 the Pro Bowl. I remember back to our first year here, 0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:54.760 we had thirteen guys post seven. Yeah, yeah, thirteen guys 0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:56.600 go to the Pro Bowl. Everybody was on a dog arm. 0:15:56.680 --> 0:15:59.360 Pro Bowl. Thirteen wins, thirteen Pro Bowlers. Yeah, that's what 0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:01.840 it was. Yeah, and they're at least at this point, 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:04.120 it's hard to argue they aren't going to get close 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:06.360 to that with the offensive lineman playing well and every 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:09.080 skills position player you can really look at. And then 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:12.200 Trey Von Diggs on the defensive side of the football, 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:14.640 who's that guy. We'll talk about him. How about that 0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:16.400 when we come back on the other side of the break, 0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:21.200 we talk defense on talking Cowboys. Honey, big news, Gary, 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.520 Are you okay? Oh I'm not Gary anymore. I'm Jackie Flash. 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:27.240 What see?

Yeah, yeah, 0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:51.719 I did it earlier. Man, Isaiah came in. Hey, Alicia 0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:53.959 got here? I mean what was it like two minutes? Like, yeah, man, 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:57.359 that light got me today. Yeah, the boys were moving 0:18:57.359 --> 0:19:00.879 a tree and Tostito's plaza. There was a huge forklift 0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:03.160 that was moving literally picked a tree out of the ground. 0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:04.919 It was back and up. I'm like, really, as I'm 0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:06.479 resting here, that's what you wanted. That's when you went 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:08.080 to back in running me with a tree. I thought 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:10.200 you were about to say they were putting up the tree. 0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:13.520 No Christmas, they had pulled a tree out the ground. 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:15.639 I guess it died. Gotta have the best until ce 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:19.160 those planets. You can't have that happen though. Well, about 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:22.879 five weeks of that Christmas spectacular though, wow, yeah wow, 0:19:23.240 --> 0:19:26.200 Ted's already around getting ready for it. I feel like 0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:28.760 he works eight months of his year on that Christmas. 0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:31.000 But we were just outside in the in a you know, 0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:33.720 the mobile home. Yeah that was a year ago. This 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:36.480
