Everson has his game day attire on 0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:38.040 here on a Thursday edition. Mix Shot got leaves on today. 0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:40.800 It's like he looks like he was once to sell 0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:45.440 some merchandise. I feel like I'm on DC right, that's right. 0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:49.120 You're inside the s WBC podcast studio at the Star 0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:51.680 in Frisco, and the Cowboys have just come off the 0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:55.960 practice field their biggest work day of this week in 0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.880 anticipation of a trip to Kansas City to take on 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:05.039 those resurgent Chiefs at three twenty five on Sunday afternoon. 0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:07.199 And Mickey can't wait to tell us what he saw 0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:09.920 the practice field this afternoon. And I can tell you 0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:15.200 I'm very glad to be inside the FWBC podcast studio 0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:21.319 because our little half hour out there watching practice was 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:23.920 pretty chilling. In the shade. Were in the shade, No, 0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:26.440 we were in the sun. And it didn't make any 0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.800 It didn't make any difference because that wind was blowing 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:32.759 pretty hard. So, uh, they've got they got a little 0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:35.039 taste of maybe what Kansas City is going to be 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:37.960 because it was in the low fifties out there. When 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:41.600 it's sixty one. Now, well it wasn't sixty win you're 0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:45.399 saying the wind chill way down there. Absolutely there's Kansas 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:47.840 City weather. There was no sixty one when we were 0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:50.240 out there. I guarantee you you needed a jacket and 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:52.720 you needed a hat on two by the way. So 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:55.960 but they did decide to go outside. We were speculating 0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:59.560 yesterday that perhaps they would take it indoors. But that's 0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:03.000 the experience that Mike McCarthy has, having been on the 0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:06.120 coaching staff with the Chiefs back in the nineties. He's 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.360 gonna be out in the elements. You know. I didn't 0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:11.560 realize he was there six years. He started as a 0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:15.440 quality control coach and then he became an offensive assistant. 0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:18.760 So yeah, he spent six years there. So when he 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:24.760 tells you Arrowhead is noisy, it's noisy, right, Hemius, I'm 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:28.400 gonna talk like you guys, what was the auditory? Is 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:33.640 that auditory elements that they faced out there today, like 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:37.280 sound you know, noise, cloud noise. You know, at one 0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:41.520 point they played they played some music, but I still didn't. 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:44.000 And you know what, when they play music out there 0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.960 and it's real loud, you hear it twice because it 0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:50.799 bounces off the building and it comes back at you. Right, 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:53.480 But that could be effective if I don't know that. 0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:56.440 I heard usually when they're playing crowd noise, we can 0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:59.560 hear through the wind, right, But I didn't really hear much. 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:02.320 Maybe it was and we just didn't. Maybe this is 0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:09.320 not the day or special win. Was the winds blowing 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:15.799 like they're not blowing. That's Hurricane win And if they're 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:17.600 going to play it, today's to day to play it. 0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:20.080 It's to day out there tomorrow, right, Yeah, And I 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.440 think there, I think there was, I think there, and 0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:26.560 then they'll be Saturday when they go inside. Yeah. Then 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:30.040 Saturday they'll go inside and that's when they'll really turn 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:33.320 it up. So um, but yeah, Mike said, you know, 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:37.120 when they play in Minnesota, the decibels are one twenty 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:41.320 and he hears that when you go at Arrowhead it's 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:50.040 one forty decibel level, so noisy, hey at stadium. I 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.800 don't know where we hit, but we're pretty good. Yeah, 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:56.000 when the boys get going and the crowd gets behind them, 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:58.280 we can be pretty loud. Have we ever imagined it 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:00.760 at all? I don't know that they have. Yeah, I mean, 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:03.080 come on, it is with a mess. We need some decibel. Yeah, 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:06.880 come on, I like to. Zeke was trying to. They 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.120 kept asking Zeke. I think he got tired of the 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:12.520 question about the noise and and and they said, well, 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:14.600 what's it like? And he goes, well, let me tell 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:17.080 you what it's like. He goes, when you when you 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:21.400 gotta bend down and you can't hear the quarterback giving 0:04:21.440 --> 0:04:24.000 you the call, that that's a problem because I gotta 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.960 know what I gotta do, right. It was pretty funny, 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:31.720 but he was getting irritated by the questions about that 0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:35.080 and about how important this game is. I was asking 0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:39.039 Bill about the show, the Mike McCarthy show. Indeed, all 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:41.320 the coach is not gonna tell you much, ain't telling 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.640 you mine gonna tell you much about just don't know 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:45.240 how to pull it out of him. You know, you 0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:49.440 got you gotta ask piercing questions. But you gotta realize 0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:53.800 to show it is coaches show, and it's whether he 0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:56.359 or not he wants to reveal things. You gotta step 0:04:56.360 --> 0:04:58.720 over the line, Bill, you gotta step on just just 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:01.040 just put a toe in there, man, but over the line. 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:06.520 See what happens. Take it from me, I stepped over? 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:12.720 How many times he stepped over the line? Well, so 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:14.440 I don't want to. I don't want to wind up 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:21.560 in any New York that's a shot. Uh So, But 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:25.840 I can't Yeah, I can't tell you. I can tell 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:28.919 you from the practice that Tyrann Smith was out there. Okay, 0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:32.160 he was in pads. He's probably going to be listed 0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:35.560 as limited from what we could tell how much he 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:43.120 was participating in the uh positional drills, in the individual drills. Um. 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:47.400 Yesterday he didn't do any team So we'll see. But 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.280 I'm sure they're going to list him as limited. Um 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:55.599 and I would imagine if he's limited, probably means he 0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.640 didn't take all the snaps. Now I don't know, uh 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.800 and I imagine they got to have Terrence Steele ready 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:07.320 to go, right. It can't just assume, Um, so who's 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.720 the who's the who's the right defensive end for the Chiefs? 0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:12.920 And well, where are they going? What are we looking 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.839 at it? See? I think they moved. They moved Chris 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:21.640 Jones inside defense Chris Jones. So that's uh, I don't 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:23.919 know how good that is unless he's over Zach Martin. 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:26.880 If he's over Zach Martin, I'm now they'll move him. 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:31.800 Leave the other white wasted time. And by the way, 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:36.360 judging from some of their um like three man drills 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:40.320 and whatever, um, it looks like they might have some 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:43.360 competition going on at that left guard spot. Okay, by 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:55.159 the way, so they mean the Chiefs, No, what is Mickey, 0:06:57.120 --> 0:06:59.840 I'm just saying I think that what you're saying competition 0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:08.719 there with Whnor McGovern, Connor Williams. Keep an eye the 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:11.520 two Connors, the Battle of the Connors. So which is 0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:17.080 their competition at the fullback position. Maybe they in the 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.160 jumbo pack. Maybe they bring up Nick Ralston. You never know, 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:24.360 he's not as big as those other guys. I would imagine. Uh, 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:28.560 They've got Chris Jones listed as their starting left defensive end, 0:07:29.320 --> 0:07:32.360 but from what I've read that they've kind of moved 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:36.480 him inside. He's a he's a beast in there. Yeah. 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:41.640 The right defensive ends Frank Clark, Um Farmer, Seattle, Seahawk, 0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:45.200 Right Michigan and they list. This is funny because he's been. 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.480 He's every time I hate a team. I'm thinking eighty 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:54.240 two was seventy two? He's been. I'm thinking Frank Clark. 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:58.000 Wasn't it like a Cowboys? Yes, Frank Clark receiver seventies, 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:00.160 wasn't it? No? No, I'm talking to his numbers? Is 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:03.880 he no? Not the year? Like? Oh no jersey number? 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:12.720 All right, show again, great player. And then the other 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:16.680 pass rusher is Melvin Ingram and they've not listed as 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:20.760 third team. That ain't right. He's been playing a lot. Uh. 0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:25.680 Just is he impactful? Yes? Okay, yes he's playing well 0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:30.120 he uh, let's look up, but he's going to look up. 0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:36.920 How impactful he's been here? Well in the meantime, Well, 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:40.440 that's the stuff doesn't just pop? Right? That was really 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:45.800 good at that stuff? You take too long? Yeah, he's 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:49.880 it's done. You know what I'm saying. Well, vamp, while 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:53.080 you're looking, Oh, he only has tackle on each of 0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:56.040 the last two games, so he caught you on that 0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.920 one he had he being double team. He had twenty 0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:04.200 one snaps last game and one tackle. Yeah, yes, okay, 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:07.280 oh right, But the guy you got to look out 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:09.960 for is Nick Bolton. No, I'm looking at it. What's 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:13.040 up with Nick? He leads the teams, the rookie out 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:22.280 of Missouri and Crisco lone star star. Now he only 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:25.440 had nineteen snaps last week. He gets the Raiders, well, 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:30.040 now is here done? What give me the scouting report? 0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:33.280 The Raiders were so far behind, they were all I 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:37.000 saw wide and they took the middle linebacker off the field. 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:39.720 He leads the team with seventy five tackles, ten tackles 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:42.839 for losses. That ten tackles for losses. Pretty impressive there, Yes, 0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:45.560 in ten games, that means he's got twice as many 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:48.920 tackles for losses. So now anybody else that that means 0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:54.160 that ten games, ten tackles for loss So I mean 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:58.600 we reading co Football Reference, I mean you know, he 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:00.360 could have played a game that he did, can get 0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:04.800 the tackle lost. It's just those are those are his numbers. Okay, 0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:07.920 just checking modern Day. I gotta check you guys. As 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:10.040 much as I trust you guys, I still have to 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:14.760 check you whenever the stat is one per game to 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:18.800 make sure. Yeah, if we're doing the game by game 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.600 on it and it wasn't targets either, by the way, Yeah, 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:24.920 that's the other part. So here's why he has so 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:32.640 many tackles for losses. Okay, against Washington he had four. 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:38.520 The next week against the Giants. Wait, let me make 0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:42.760 sure he had four tackles. No, no tackles for losses 0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:48.040 against one team, that's Washington. Against Washington the next week 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:53.120 against Tennessee had five. That's what the that's what their 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:58.240 status sheet before you come in here putting this stuff 0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:03.640 on the age. Okay, oh wait, wait the four four 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:08.640 the Giants. No, he had four against Tennessee. Tennessee for 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:12.200 five yards. Okay, all right, we want me to read them. 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:18.760 One against Cleveland, one against Baltimore, two against Buffalo, one 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:22.800 against Washington, four against Tennessee, and one against Las Vegas. 0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:26.200 Still very so what's your point? So it's ten still 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:30.800 very tread, which we established off the four against the Titans. 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:33.320 What was going? Yeah, what's up with Derek you Derrick 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:36.160 Henry that game was playing? That he was playing? That game. 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:38.400 I looked it up because I was taken aback by 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:40.959 the four tackles for loss He only had eighty six 0:11:41.080 --> 0:11:43.880 yards on twenty nine carries. I believe I'm confirming that 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:47.280 must have been one of those ye eighty six yards 0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:52.400 twenty nine carries, so that is less than check out 0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:55.800 this math, less than three yards of carry. There you go, 0:11:56.040 --> 0:12:01.720 that's easy and two point nine you can go. Now, 0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.679 come on so much twenty nine times three twin lives 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:11.120 hose three that would be uh seventy eight seventy eighty seven, 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:13.160 and he had eighty six yards, Chris, That's how I 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:15.800 figured out it's less than three yards. Again, Chris Jones 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:21.240 has three sacks. Okay, but those three three tackles for losses. 0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:24.079 I'm sorry, that is extremely impressive. Ten. He must have 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:26.080 known something and I'd like to know who the heck 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:28.199 he was going up against on those plays. Yeah, he 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:32.840 had four in that game against Tennessee. That's crazy. He's 0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:36.000 fine final rookie. He's not gonna win Rookie of the year, 0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:38.400 defensive rookie of the year, but he's a fine player 0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:43.320 that maybe from the KFC. Okay, so he's he's very improved. 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:50.040 Who would you say is the most improved? He checked 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:53.280 his one? Yeah, hey man, yeah, Chris will cut me off. 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:58.959 Now we have time to get Chris will sit back there. 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:04.439 They're going into another subject. Most improved so far on 0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:08.240 the team this year. Yeah, let's go defense in offense, 0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:13.840 Let's go defense. Most improved from last year or last 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:19.120 year from last year? All right, from last year? I 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:20.880 got I mean, you got one of them. It's obvious. 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:23.080 Were really two obvious ones to me. But the third 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.400 is a little bit well, you know Diggs for sure. 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:30.040 Of course, from like eighty percent to twenty percent. You know, 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.640 as far as the percentage as far as up quarterbacks 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:35.959 versus him, that's a huge drop, by the way, even 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:37.719 though he's giving up big play. Still, you know a 0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:41.679 few Michael Parsons, he wasn't your last year most improved. 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:45.559 He was improved because he didn't play last year. He 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:48.440 played no football last year. Oh that's true. I mean 0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:54.480 with the Cowboys, be most improved from last year for 0:13:54.640 --> 0:14:03.439 those that signed with the Cowboys. Did not narrows the 0:14:03.520 --> 0:14:05.760 field down because there were so few who were on 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:10.120 the Cowboys last year and so many of them were hurt. 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:12.880 Come on, man, yeah, well I'm yeah, that's true. Anthony 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:16.280 Brown missed half the season, right now, that's a good one. 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.880 I didn't think of Anthony Brown that he's improved. That's 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:23.800 a good one. And of course that's an obvious more 0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:28.400 by the way, he the other obvious one you had. Yeah, 0:14:28.680 --> 0:14:30.760 and he's been on the did not think Anthony Brown, 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:33.000 which should also be obvious. So he has to miss 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:41.440 one more game. Uh oh, fucking defense. True. We need 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:43.360 to ready to get this shot. I was ready to get. 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:47.480 I was ready to get. It's not like we've set 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.880 a high high level. Okay, so this is pretty much 0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:54.360 profit of course for us. Let's just be real. Let's 0:14:54.440 --> 0:15:00.360 just be real. Layton Vanderish what very good, but he 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:03.760 was good less but he was hurt twice. Yeah, yeah, right, 0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:06.880 And we have been sleeping on him. We have not 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.280 talked about him and stats. We'd have him talked about 0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:12.120 his snaps, about how important he's been to not just 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:16.280 FoST down but third down success. I know the interesting 0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:19.720 thing about him, and I don't have his snaps from 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:22.720 last year, but his snaps are down this year, and 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:26.360 I think it's been by design, not only with scheme 0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:32.280 but also preserving him. Right. Yeah, he's fourth on the 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:37.680 team with forty seven tackles, Anthony Brown second with forty nine, 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:40.120 So he's one of the tackle leaders because the next 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.720 person is thirty one. You don't want to you don't 0:15:42.760 --> 0:15:45.600 want to cornerback to be Wait, you got two cornerbacks 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:49.600 that are what fifth and six in tackling on the team? No, 0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:52.680 Jamon Curse, not a corner but the safety kind of 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:55.960 slash line said, has fifty five curse we're here last 0:15:56.080 --> 0:16:00.520 year improved and Anthony Brown has forty nine. M hm. 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:05.400 So that's a lot of tackles. Two of the of 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.720 the top five are cornerbacks. A lot of that means 0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:11.520 they're a lot of completed passes and a lot of 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:15.240 deep running plays into the second day. Yeah, you don't 0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:16.560 want to have to put your head in there like 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:19.080 that all the time. See the scary thing about the defense. 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:24.000 You got to go down to number nine to find 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:30.400 a defensive lineman with twenty tackles? Is it scary or 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:34.000 does that mean they've been rotating? That could be. That 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:37.160 could be because they're rotating them, but no one has 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:42.160 really you know stood out. Look number eleven with nineteen 0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:49.400 tackles is still Jalen Smith. That is funny. I was sorry, 0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:56.800 So wait, you know what you're saying, you want I 0:16:56.880 --> 0:17:00.520 could I could say that this this defense is definitely 0:17:00.600 --> 0:17:04.280 designed for the linebackers and the second day to make 0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:07.240 some of the plays, you know, to make most of 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:09.960 the plays. It seems like the defensive ends, the defensive 0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:16.200 lineman the mate for for harassment, clearing the way for 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:19.840 those linebackers, almost like the flex. Terrell Basham has nineteen 0:17:19.920 --> 0:17:24.480 tackles and OsO Diggi Zoo has eighteen. All Right, how 0:17:24.480 --> 0:17:28.200 about this, if we were going to look at I 0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:31.240 should have made sure I had the numbers in front 0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:33.560 of me before I brought it up. Snaps is what 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:36.000 you know I've got. I'm looking at snaps and I 0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:41.159 need to go career snaps the snaps for vander esh 0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:47.320 As opposed to his past seasons. All Right, this year 0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:50.520 the last game, because the way the game played out, 0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:53.440 he only had twenty snaps in the game against Atlanta. 0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:58.600 The previous week he had fifty one against Denver, only 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:05.520 thirty three defensive snaps against Minnesota, twenty eight against New 0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:10.800 England and thirty one against the Giants. That is markedly 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:13.159 down from what he has been in passion. So what 0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:17.680 you're saying, tackles per snaps, he's pretty high, That's what 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:24.840 I'm saying. But exactly because if we're looking at curse Um, 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:30.320 he's played many more snaps he's played ninety one is 0:18:30.320 --> 0:18:32.800 it ninety one? It's hard to read all the way across. 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:37.240 I think of the snaps. I'll give you an idea 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:42.200 last year, h Vander esh Had. I'm just going through 0:18:42.240 --> 0:18:46.560 his game log last year. He had one, two, three, 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:52.400 four games with sixty or more snaps last year. Yeah, right, Well, yeah, 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:54.800 because they didn't they didn't play it the same way, 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:58.600 totally different. And I do think that there's probably part 0:18:58.640 --> 0:19:02.080 of the mindset and putting him in and as they 0:19:02.160 --> 0:19:05.600 put this team together with the acquisition of Kean u'neil 0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:08.520 and what dan Quinn wants to do, part of it 0:19:08.760 --> 0:19:11.760 is preserving him as well. And there was no Michael 0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:14.800 Parsons last year, right, let's face it, right, but Jaylen 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:17.920 was playing those snaps last year? Was Jalen was not 0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:22.640 coming off the field last year? Yeah, for some whatever reason. Yeah, 0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:28.840 So all right, we continue with more. It's guided we're 0:19:28.880 --> 0:19:31.639 gonna I guess we need to look at the offense, 0:19:31.760 --> 0:19:34.160 the most improved on offense when we come back here 0:19:34.240 --> 0:19:39.919 on mix shots.

I don't know what 0:22:06.560 --> 0:22:13.360 that was, it says broadcast voice. That's an ugly past. Hey, hey, 0:22:15.160 --> 0:22:19.640 anybody who atturned to practice, they did? Greg zerline is off. 0:22:20.920 --> 0:22:24.119 COVID saw him kicking field goals. They'd had a field 0:22:24.119 --> 0:22:28.040 goal session today and running backs coach Skip Pete back 0:22:28.119 --> 0:22:32.600 Pete practice, the brother of Rodney Pete. He was out 0:22:32.960 --> 0:22:37.720 for a week and missed the game with COVID. Skip Pete, 0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:40.760 who in of course, in his second tour of duty 0:22:40.840 --> 0:22:43.440 with the Cowboys as a running backs coach, also was 0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:47.199 first under Wade Phillips and then Jason Garrett from over 0:22:47.280 --> 0:22:51.880 seven to two thousand a twelve and then hired last 0:22:51.920 --> 0:22:56.359 year on Mike McCarthy's staff. And uh, it's interesting because 0:22:56.400 --> 0:22:58.720 he had been with the Rams by the way, he 0:22:58.840 --> 0:23:01.080 had been with the Rams the last four seasons in 0:23:01.200 --> 0:23:04.600 Chicago prior to that. The interesting one of the interesting 0:23:04.680 --> 0:23:08.080 things that it's timely his him coming back this week 0:23:08.119 --> 0:23:10.920 because he's going back to Kansas City. He went to 0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:13.680 University of Kansas to school and his dad was a 0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:16.680 long time scout Willie Pete for the Chiefs. I knew 0:23:16.720 --> 0:23:22.320 there was something wrong with him. Kansas. He was an 0:23:22.400 --> 0:23:27.199 all Big eight wide receiver for the Kansas Jayhawks coach Pete. Yes, 0:23:27.320 --> 0:23:30.440 coach Pete was. And of course everyone knows also that 0:23:30.640 --> 0:23:34.960 Skip's brother, Rodney was half the years he was at 0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:39.360 Kansas nineteen eighty five. He was all all Big eight 0:23:39.800 --> 0:23:43.600 wide receiver in nineteen eighty five. That's crazy with the Jayhawks. 0:23:43.680 --> 0:23:47.840 Did not know that. Yep, Okay, here we go, here 0:23:47.920 --> 0:23:52.960 we go. The connection between Skip Pete and Mike McCarthy. 0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:56.200 What do you think it goes to? Maybe when Mike 0:23:56.359 --> 0:23:59.560 was in Kansas City. Nope, you're going prior to that. 0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:02.640 I just noticed it just on his bio right here. 0:24:02.840 --> 0:24:06.520 It just occurred to me. First job Skipped Pete had 0:24:06.640 --> 0:24:09.400 was as a graduate assistant at the University of Pittsburghers 0:24:09.520 --> 0:24:11.680 nineteen eighty eight eighty nine, and he was a wide 0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:14.440 receiver's coach at pitt in ninety before he became the 0:24:14.520 --> 0:24:17.119 running backs coach there ninety two. And that would have 0:24:17.160 --> 0:24:19.840 been the time frame that Mike mccarthurs a Pitt before 0:24:19.880 --> 0:24:22.080 he went to the Kingsas So, you're in Kansas and 0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:27.280 you're all big eight wide receiver wide receiver, and you 0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:29.800 don't get a shot in the league. You're at Kansas, 0:24:30.400 --> 0:24:32.960 but he's all big eight. But he's at Kansas. But 0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:36.120 to be all big eight at Kansas at that time, 0:24:38.000 --> 0:24:41.399 that's a good segue into Dorance Armstrong and there you go, 0:24:41.640 --> 0:24:45.560 you all big twelve as at Kansas. And look what 0:24:45.680 --> 0:24:48.879 he's doing now you think he had at Kansas? Or 0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:51.879 points per game? I should say how many catches? No? 0:24:52.040 --> 0:24:55.240 No points per game? Oh, you're talking about basketball. I'm sorry. Football, 0:24:55.240 --> 0:24:58.960 I'm sorry, Yeah, we're talking football. But this show is 0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:03.840 when Chris Joe.

Okay, Tyrant Smith was limited and everybody else 0:25:56.720 --> 0:26:01.600 was full. And Mike McCarthy was asked, so did full 0:26:01.720 --> 0:26:04.879
