<v Speaker 1>thinking no, that was torture passed the turkey triy. It

0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:57.120
<v Speaker 1>was the game. I took my nephew and his girlfriend

0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:01.120
<v Speaker 1>to the game. She was so giddy and happy. She's

0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:03.440
<v Speaker 1>a Cowboy fan and it's the first time at the

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:06.960
<v Speaker 1>AT and T Stadium. She was just so excited, and

0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:08.800
<v Speaker 1>I just I had a good time watching her. Had

0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:10.760
<v Speaker 1>a good time there. You go, well, good, yeah, we

0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:14.079
<v Speaker 1>we had a ball And then going home, I saw

0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:16.360
<v Speaker 1>my nephew. He had just come in from you know,

0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:19.359
<v Speaker 1>he's like ups pilot and all of that. So seeing

0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 1>him back at the house with his mom and his

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:24.359
<v Speaker 1>brothers and his sister, Man, we had such a good time.

0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.119
<v Speaker 1>Had we acted so crazy and you know what set

0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 1>the tone for the whole thing. The game The Cowboys

0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 1>won't get exactly it makes it makes the whole holiday

0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:38.360
<v Speaker 1>so much better. The Cowboys. It's been a while too,

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:42.800
<v Speaker 1>it has been twenty eighteen. I had a very sports

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:49.720
<v Speaker 1>centric Thanksgiving. Cowboys on Thursday, got to watch Missouri beat

0:02:49.840 --> 0:02:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Arkansas Friday. That went to the Stars game Friday night

0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>and they won that one too. They lost it over time,

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:00.960
<v Speaker 1>but they got a point. Time they got a point,

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>they scored eighteen seconds left. Well, no, they scored two

0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:08.280
<v Speaker 1>goals with two minutes to go. Uh. And then Saturday

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.720
<v Speaker 1>with my good buddy Gil LeBreton and his wife drove

0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:16.280
<v Speaker 1>to College Station for the lsu A and m GAT. Yeah,

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:21.760
<v Speaker 1>but they were measurable. Every time I looked up, the

0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 1>thirteen was chewing the twelve thirteen, whether they man the

0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:30.600
<v Speaker 1>twelth cheer every time, every time, every time I opened

0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:34.480
<v Speaker 1>my eyes, a chain was gaining ten yards. That's all

0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I can here. Was yelling from the from the twelve.

0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.240
<v Speaker 1>He ended up with two hundred and some yards in

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.440
<v Speaker 1>the game. They ran for three hundred. Aggie fans are

0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:47.200
<v Speaker 1>sitting there going, how come we couldn't do this? Had

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback actually looked really good too? And I'm sure

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:55.560
<v Speaker 1>that's what they were. That's crazy, that's crazy. Well, Grambling lost,

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:58.080
<v Speaker 1>but still got my love for my boys, my tigers.

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.320
<v Speaker 1>All right, My daughter is happy because Southern kicked out butts.

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:06.480
<v Speaker 1>They're going to play Dion's Jackson State Tigers. It's still

0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:09.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna be Deon's Jackson State Tiger. Was gonna be Deon Jackson,

0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:12.839
<v Speaker 1>even if he takes another job someplace. When he takes

0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>another job somewhere, that'd be Jackson. Might he was offered

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.520
<v Speaker 1>to Colorado job that going to happen. And I saw

0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 1>the one in ten Colorado Buffalo's right, I saw that

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:28.280
<v Speaker 1>that record. That's horrible. One in ten. That's not a

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:31.280
<v Speaker 1>job that I would want, especially when you can look

0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:34.320
<v Speaker 1>at the makeup of the PAC twelve now with USC

0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and UCLA leaving and who knows what's Well, you might

0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:40.680
<v Speaker 1>have a better chance, you might, Well, yeah you might.

0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:43.040
<v Speaker 1>That's what I say. That's what I say. You got

0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:47.359
<v Speaker 1>a better chance. Yeah, all right, So we start with

0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Thanksgiving Day and go forward. Or I mean, we had

0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:53.920
<v Speaker 1>a nice little NFL Sunday yesterday too something, but it

0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 1>was no Cowboys. There was no cowburry. Yeah, but I

0:04:56.640 --> 0:05:00.680
<v Speaker 1>had Cowboys applications and we got him Monday night game

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:04.720
<v Speaker 1>tonight and a scouting trip for us as we take

0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:08.040
<v Speaker 1>a look at the next opponent, the Indianapolis Colts playing tonight.

0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:09.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, I didn't realize it was a night game

0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:15.480
<v Speaker 1>coming up. Oh yeah, I just I didn't realize it

0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:18.040
<v Speaker 1>was until they said it. Yeah, they said it on

0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 1>the Sunday night game, like, oh yeah, it's a Sunday

0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.320
<v Speaker 1>night game culture. And then they had to have that

0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:26.479
<v Speaker 1>goofy lead in thing with the cowboys and colts and

0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:30.080
<v Speaker 1>the cowboy chasing the colt, and I did not it

0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:32.240
<v Speaker 1>was on them. I wasn't looking at the TV. I

0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 1>just heard it. It was on the post game. I

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:38.359
<v Speaker 1>think that's how they started promoing the Sunday Night next.

0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:40.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, they've got a production crew that works on

0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:44.680
<v Speaker 1>that all summer. They can't they think we're out in

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Wyoming or something like, we got horses running down the

0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:52.080
<v Speaker 1>damn street here. We were called the cowboys. Still, I've

0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:56.279
<v Speaker 1>always hated that, that, you know idea what people pay.

0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 1>The wild West out forced me the cowboy boots when

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I became a player. I hate cowboy boots, but everybody

0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 1>else's well, I let me buy some cowboy boots. O

0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:08.760
<v Speaker 1>the worst decision ever made. I don't like cowboy boots.

0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not a cowboy. I rode a horse once in

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:14.120
<v Speaker 1>my life. I was scared to death, so I don't

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:18.159
<v Speaker 1>depict that at all. I never have had cowboy boots.

0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:21.120
<v Speaker 1>And when I've ridden horses, they didn't listen to me.

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 1>They just had a same here. It's like, all right,

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:28.039
<v Speaker 1>how can this guy's got his horse doing what he

0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:30.679
<v Speaker 1>wants and on the top of the head, the line's

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.240
<v Speaker 1>going through all the trees and the branches hitting me

0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.920
<v Speaker 1>in the head. All right, So take us back to Thursday. Yes,

0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>we all were winners as far as our picks. Yes,

0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:44.600
<v Speaker 1>I was closest. I had a more lopsided win than

0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.360
<v Speaker 1>well I said, I said thirty to twenty. I think

0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:51.440
<v Speaker 1>I said, yep, thirty to twenty. It was twenty eight twenty,

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:55.120
<v Speaker 1>So you're right on. I had it almost perfect if

0:06:55.520 --> 0:07:00.920
<v Speaker 1>Rhett Marred didn't let me down. I had had Williams

0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:06.479
<v Speaker 1>with two sacks, had fumble and thirty one seventeen. I

0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.600
<v Speaker 1>had thirty one. Man, how does he miss forty six?

0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:13.400
<v Speaker 1>He was too close? Too close? Bill, You had Wilson,

0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:16.240
<v Speaker 1>and I stayed with Wilson because he played, he played,

0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 1>he balled out. Oh, he had an interception, he balled out.

0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 1>Your guy took away called for a penalty, and you, yeah,

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 1>I had and I had Gallimore who didn't play. Yeah,

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>and then you said, uh, you know, they were sick.

0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I think I went with Armstrong. I think that was

0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 1>my backup I think I said doing songs, So we

0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:43.640
<v Speaker 1>have to check the text one sack for his fumble

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:50.000
<v Speaker 1>thirty twin. I'm checking the text now. No Gallimore played.

0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Did he play? Yeah, he didn't start, but he played, okay,

0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.920
<v Speaker 1>because but you did change yours to doing What happened

0:07:56.680 --> 0:07:59.720
<v Speaker 1>was after the show on Wednesday, the injury report came

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:05.880
<v Speaker 1>out and both of our picks, Donovan Wilson and Neville Gallible,

0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.720
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden they weren't ruled out, but they

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.720
<v Speaker 1>appeared on the injury report with the illness that's been

0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:15.080
<v Speaker 1>going around and so moved to questionable. Yeah, so they

0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 1>were questionable, and that was the first time they had

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:19.840
<v Speaker 1>been on the injury report. Just so happened. The two

0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:24.600
<v Speaker 1>guys that we pick are as as we're they're they're

0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:27.120
<v Speaker 1>being diagnosed with a sickness as we're picking them as

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 1>the pigs to click. In other words, we picked them

0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:33.719
<v Speaker 1>the picks to get sick. That's right. And uh so

0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:37.360
<v Speaker 1>then we texted and we changed. I changed mine to

0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:41.640
<v Speaker 1>curse and you changed yours Armstrong. And by the way,

0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.319
<v Speaker 1>but since my guy almost had an interception, he did

0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:48.840
<v Speaker 1>have an interception, they got back to Wilson. I shouldn't

0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:54.200
<v Speaker 1>have sanctioned those changes. Yea. So it was an impressive which,

0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:57.599
<v Speaker 1>by the way, which made the victory even more impressive

0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:00.439
<v Speaker 1>that a bunch of those guys played through their illness

0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:05.160
<v Speaker 1>after not practicing all week, which was amazing, and they

0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:06.959
<v Speaker 1>had and if they have the same illness that I

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:10.320
<v Speaker 1>always been battling the last two weeks, then there is

0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:12.680
<v Speaker 1>no way I would have been able to get off

0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:16.680
<v Speaker 1>my sick bed to go play these guys. I mean

0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:20.959
<v Speaker 1>that they had to play without Basham Hankins. They're getting

0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:27.160
<v Speaker 1>a bit more fluid, I am, well, but plus is

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:31.199
<v Speaker 1>up a little bit higher than they're younger. Yeah, that's

0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:34.800
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. That's what I mean. But yeah, they

0:09:34.960 --> 0:09:40.840
<v Speaker 1>played without those guys, and then Gallimore and Wilson uh

0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:42.920
<v Speaker 1>and who was the other guy that was under the

0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 1>weather and he played They played through it. Um, So yeah,

0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:50.840
<v Speaker 1>that was pretty impressive. And none of us picked Ezekiel

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Elliott did we as to pick the click That would

0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:57.319
<v Speaker 1>have been a good pick clicking. It shows just what

0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:00.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, the old hands are talking about. Because some

0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 1>reason this this narrative has started. I think it just

0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:06.520
<v Speaker 1>starts with more than younger people, you know, those that

0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:10.080
<v Speaker 1>really haven't seen that much football to realize how you

0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:13.160
<v Speaker 1>gotta have a combination of running backs, right, and you know,

0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:18.200
<v Speaker 1>for some reason they have this this urge. So you've

0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:21.600
<v Speaker 1>had this conversation maybe with your son and with your

0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:25.600
<v Speaker 1>others of that age, because I've had the same conversation

0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:29.120
<v Speaker 1>with my son in laws that they you know, they

0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:32.120
<v Speaker 1>jump on. And I love Tony Pol. I love everything

0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.360
<v Speaker 1>that I love Tony Pol. But try, you know, but

0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.040
<v Speaker 1>we shouldn't have to say that. I've gotta understand the

0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:43.000
<v Speaker 1>value that Zeke brings. And I always point to the

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I think it was a game before last where you know,

0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:48.040
<v Speaker 1>they were trying to get Poler in this one. Polo

0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:49.840
<v Speaker 1>was had the great game game, Game of the week,

0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:53.040
<v Speaker 1>play of the week, and two times he got snatched

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:54.920
<v Speaker 1>down on the goal line, I mean snatched down like

0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:57.360
<v Speaker 1>a little kid. And so then all of a sudden

0:10:57.400 --> 0:10:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Zeke comes in and it's like a batterman man bom bom.

0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:05.480
<v Speaker 1>And so to me, I don't care who starts, I

0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:08.720
<v Speaker 1>really don't care. But they seems to care more to

0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.440
<v Speaker 1>the younger people than it does to someone like myself. Yeah,

0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:14.560
<v Speaker 1>and as long as you can run for one hundred

0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:17.559
<v Speaker 1>and sixty nine yards and they had over one hundred

0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:20.280
<v Speaker 1>and seventy until they start kneeling down. Yeah, they need

0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:23.720
<v Speaker 1>to put an asterisk, you know. Kneel down you get

0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:29.040
<v Speaker 1>negative yards. Right, and Zeke averages five point eight a carry.

0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 1>All right, he's not old, he's not slow. The guy

0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 1>still has it. And I think I've seen what Tony

0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Pollard's kryptonite is. He's hunting big plays too many times

0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:44.680
<v Speaker 1>instead of hitting the hole because he loves that jump,

0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:48.080
<v Speaker 1>that jumps right to cut back or whatever. He's looking

0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:51.000
<v Speaker 1>for a big place. Sometimes you just gotta get four yards.

0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes he's doing it and the hole is already open, yes,

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.599
<v Speaker 1>and he jumps in it and okay, go Well you

0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:00.760
<v Speaker 1>could have just gone without the hesitation. So yeah, but

0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.000
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter if you run for one hundred and

0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:07.240
<v Speaker 1>seventy yards, you can do business. I'm happy with both

0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:09.800
<v Speaker 1>of them, right, And that's what they need because the

0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:13.720
<v Speaker 1>change up fools the defense they get used to Zeke Zeke,

0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and then all of a sudden, here comes the lightning.

0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:19.080
<v Speaker 1>Here's here's the thing about Zeke, though what I see

0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:22.600
<v Speaker 1>has seems like it's diminished in my eyes, his ability

0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 1>to catch the ball. I just remember when he was younger,

0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:30.280
<v Speaker 1>his his his transition from catching to running was a

0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:34.760
<v Speaker 1>little more subtle. Now it's it's it's more deliberate. And

0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.280
<v Speaker 1>that's the only thing right now that to where you

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:40.120
<v Speaker 1>can can pigeonhold him a little bit, say, okay, well,

0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Zeke's not gonna be running me, squeens. Zeke's not gonna

0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:45.280
<v Speaker 1>be going out of the pass too often. Well, I

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:50.400
<v Speaker 1>think the pass has to be more perfect for him

0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:53.360
<v Speaker 1>to catch him. No doubt, he's not, you know, versatile

0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:57.200
<v Speaker 1>enough to adjust, sort of like say Kwan Barkley trying

0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:01.559
<v Speaker 1>to catch a screen pass falling down. And Zeke has

0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.280
<v Speaker 1>looked like that in the past, trying to catch the

0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:06.160
<v Speaker 1>screen pass falling down, which, by the way, the Cowboys

0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:09.319
<v Speaker 1>run defense for a change held somebody to less than

0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:14.120
<v Speaker 1>one hundred yards, giants to ninety and sae Quon Barkley

0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:17.760
<v Speaker 1>to thirty nine yards. They just couldn't figure out. Some

0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:23.200
<v Speaker 1>guy named Brightwell, how did that happen? It's five carries?

0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:27.160
<v Speaker 1>He was there, Tony Poll, Yeah, I guess so, man,

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:32.280
<v Speaker 1>he was scooting through the holes. I enjoyed that. And

0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:35.240
<v Speaker 1>here's the thing, we're going to give up something so

0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 1>we really concentrate on the run. So all of a sudden,

0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Jones looks a little bit better in the passing game.

0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I gotta give day Ball credit for figuring out, how

0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:48.480
<v Speaker 1>do we compensate for three of our offensive lineman missing,

0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:51.800
<v Speaker 1>And he just started rolling them out, rolling them out,

0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:54.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, and it gets away from that pass rush

0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:58.360
<v Speaker 1>until you know, you can't roll out and you got

0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:00.920
<v Speaker 1>to throw the ball down the field, and the pass

0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:07.199
<v Speaker 1>rush occurs like a person's occurs. Just the man, you know,

0:14:07.440 --> 0:14:10.160
<v Speaker 1>his knack for making a play when he has to

0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:13.679
<v Speaker 1>make it is unbelievable. Like they got the lead. Now

0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:16.320
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, can you stop the giants? And it's

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.960
<v Speaker 1>seconding whatever, And he gets a sack and you can

0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:20.920
<v Speaker 1>feel it. You can feel it, you can feel it.

0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:23.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's like, I mean, even his body language

0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.920
<v Speaker 1>seems a little different. It's like he's standing taller, you

0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:29.240
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. He doesn't get down, it's like

0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:32.080
<v Speaker 1>he can he's it's it's like a takeoff, you know,

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:35.000
<v Speaker 1>on a hundred yard dash, one hundred meter dash nowadays.

0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:38.600
<v Speaker 1>So now I've been very impressed with the timing of

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.320
<v Speaker 1>his sacks. But at the same time, we have the

0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:45.960
<v Speaker 1>depth on this defensive line that allows us to have

0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:48.920
<v Speaker 1>constant pressure. I've looked at some of the games this

0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:51.440
<v Speaker 1>past weekend and a lot of them went a few

0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:54.600
<v Speaker 1>of them went into overtime. And those overtime games, you

0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:59.160
<v Speaker 1>could just see the defensive lineman. We're like, man, I'm done.

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 1>They just stopped rushing. They would just stop rushing. They

0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:04.400
<v Speaker 1>standing there. I hope they can knock the ball down.

0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:08.280
<v Speaker 1>You don't see that without d line. There's always pressure

0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:11.320
<v Speaker 1>because we're always fresh. There were times we got pressure

0:15:11.560 --> 0:15:14.360
<v Speaker 1>without Parsons even being in the game. That's lets you

0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:16.960
<v Speaker 1>know what we all right now as a defensive mind

0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:20.160
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to pressure. But at the same time,

0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:24.040
<v Speaker 1>we put all of our efforts into stopping the running game.

0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.520
<v Speaker 1>And that's the only reason that Jones was able to

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:28.760
<v Speaker 1>get the passes that he was able to get. You know,

0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:32.080
<v Speaker 1>I circled that that series, the Cowboys had just gone

0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 1>up twenty eight thirteen, eight fifty three left in the game,

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:39.120
<v Speaker 1>and the Giants were driving and they ended up with

0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 1>a first and tenant the Cowboys thirty eight, and all

0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:46.800
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, these guys stepped up. Anthony Brown breaks

0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>up a pass on first down, and here second and ten,

0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:55.640
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna have to throw it, and Parsons just smokes Thomas, right,

0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it tested, and it's a sack for

0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:04.160
<v Speaker 1>minus eleven ten or eleven something like that. Uh. And

0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:07.320
<v Speaker 1>then on third down they get a false start third down,

0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:11.440
<v Speaker 1>they gained ten On fourth and nine, Dorance Armstrong hits

0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Jones as he's throwing the ball forces and incompletion, and

0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:18.480
<v Speaker 1>that that was just that was just so significant because

0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:22.120
<v Speaker 1>here come the Cowboys driving right back after they missed

0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:25.880
<v Speaker 1>on fourth down at may who misses the forty six

0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:29.360
<v Speaker 1>fielical I mean that would have just put the game away,

0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:33.600
<v Speaker 1>But then you found yourself, okay, garbage touchdown and now

0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:36.320
<v Speaker 1>I got to recover an on side kick to survive.

0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:39.080
<v Speaker 1>But they did. What was the line on the game?

0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:44.720
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea. I think that that's that's the

0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:48.920
<v Speaker 1>missfield goal because or the late touchdown. I think it

0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:52.880
<v Speaker 1>was nine and a half and they won by eight. Yeah,

0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:58.840
<v Speaker 1>that's why I don't bet that's right. Eight seconds left

0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:02.600
<v Speaker 1>in the game. Eight seconds left in the game, and

0:17:02.760 --> 0:17:05.440
<v Speaker 1>a fifteen point win turns into an eight point win

0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:10.119
<v Speaker 1>and somebody lost, And yeah, I don't know what the

0:17:10.320 --> 0:17:13.119
<v Speaker 1>and maybe in the over under two Oh, that's true,

0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:18.560
<v Speaker 1>went went to forty eight points in there, so there's

0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:22.280
<v Speaker 1>no safe bet. H. Well, I can go back and

0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 1>look right now. It was ten, the line was ten,

0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:28.760
<v Speaker 1>and the over under was forty five and a half

0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 1>and so from ahead, so both of them for eight

0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:38.920
<v Speaker 1>seconds left. It sounds like Chris lost some money. Producers

0:17:38.960 --> 0:17:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Supreme bad the information that it was on bad beats

0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:48.639
<v Speaker 1>all right, we continue with more Thanksgiving talk and looking

0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:53.199
<v Speaker 1>ahead to the Indianapolis Colts in an NFL Sunday, uh

0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:56.880
<v Speaker 1>and some things to talk about from yesterday's games when

<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, totally. Can you pass me a pepsi zero sugar?

0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:43.639
<v Speaker 1>Great job, honey, Oh oh look at that. That's not

0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:47.119
<v Speaker 1>the end, No way. Now it's time for the encore.

0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:50.280
<v Speaker 1>You know what, You're right? Five times not enough times

0:18:50.400 --> 0:18:53.480
<v Speaker 1>for everyone who traded in rock concerts for their kids recitals.

0:18:53.680 --> 0:18:57.280
<v Speaker 1>You've compromised enough. Pepsi zero sugar. That's what I like.

0:18:58.200 --> 0:19:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Nobody protects you from mayhem like all State. You hear that,

0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:07.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm a torrential downpour? Torrential? What's that even mean? It

0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:11.200
<v Speaker 1>means you can't see out of your windshield, and if

0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:13.520
<v Speaker 1>you have the wrong car insurance, you might have to

<v Speaker 1>So that Thanksgiving game, when you look back at that

0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:29.879
<v Speaker 1>game several years from now, what's the one thing you

0:20:29.920 --> 0:20:35.000
<v Speaker 1>will remember from that game? This past game, this went

0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:38.560
<v Speaker 1>over the Giants, everything that happened in that game. What

0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:41.400
<v Speaker 1>is the one thing you will remember from that game?

0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:46.800
<v Speaker 1>That they screwed Cede Lamb out of a touchdown? Oh? Man,

0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:52.000
<v Speaker 1>don't get me started with that. Wow. And then you

0:20:52.080 --> 0:20:54.879
<v Speaker 1>have a guy last yesterday. He gets in with one

0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:59.320
<v Speaker 1>foot and a shin. Yeah, yeah, they they gave him that,

0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:06.200
<v Speaker 1>they would they the shin counts. One shin is a toe, Okay,

0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:08.280
<v Speaker 1>a toe counts is a foot is on the heel.

0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Which was it? Which did they say had to be

0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:17.080
<v Speaker 1>down there? No, foot does not have to be down

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:19.720
<v Speaker 1>You got the toe first. And if it goes toe heel,

0:21:20.040 --> 0:21:24.200
<v Speaker 1>you're talking to cities, cities, the toe counts first. That's it.

0:21:24.760 --> 0:21:29.159
<v Speaker 1>There's no the hole. The entire since when they make

0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:31.280
<v Speaker 1>stuff up as a crazy and then they find some

0:21:32.320 --> 0:21:39.680
<v Speaker 1>seven point three rule that no one's ever seen, that happens.

0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:43.280
<v Speaker 1>I've seen two toe drags in the end zone. Time

0:21:43.359 --> 0:21:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Chris sounds, it's time, Chris, it's time with this bag.

0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:53.120
<v Speaker 1>I promise, I'm with you. But one of the football

0:21:55.480 --> 0:21:57.560
<v Speaker 1>heat in the end zone when you're running, just the

0:21:57.680 --> 0:22:01.160
<v Speaker 1>ball's gotta cross. No, it doesn't. The ball just has

0:22:01.200 --> 0:22:04.000
<v Speaker 1>to tip the tip of line. So why can't we

0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:06.760
<v Speaker 1>tiptoe for a touchdown if we can have the tip

0:22:06.840 --> 0:22:09.320
<v Speaker 1>of a ball. I don't get it. I don't get it.

0:22:09.520 --> 0:22:12.320
<v Speaker 1>Then I saw it in the LSU A and M

0:22:12.440 --> 0:22:14.760
<v Speaker 1>game where the kid caught the ball in the end zone.

0:22:14.760 --> 0:22:16.720
<v Speaker 1>They would have been within a touchdown. They could have

0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.840
<v Speaker 1>on site kicked and they said he juggled the ball. Now,

0:22:20.080 --> 0:22:24.120
<v Speaker 1>unless their big board is not good, he never juggled

0:22:24.200 --> 0:22:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the ball and It's like, how do you come up

0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:29.640
<v Speaker 1>with this stuff. I've got a friend that he goes, well,

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:33.919
<v Speaker 1>you know where these decisions come from. I go where Birmingham, Alabama?

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:37.080
<v Speaker 1>And you know how close that is to Alabama, right,

0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:39.480
<v Speaker 1>and they're trying to figure out a way to get

0:22:39.600 --> 0:22:45.280
<v Speaker 1>them in that playoff because those people all just live. Yeah,

0:22:46.400 --> 0:22:53.320
<v Speaker 1>it was gil, I really m I don't like it

0:22:53.440 --> 0:22:55.399
<v Speaker 1>that we I'm glad that we didn't have to depend

0:22:55.520 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>on that plight. I mean, but it did a lot

0:22:57.760 --> 0:22:59.720
<v Speaker 1>to me. It did a lot for a CD Lamb

0:22:59.760 --> 0:23:03.160
<v Speaker 1>every towards his reputation because at this point, he's really

0:23:03.200 --> 0:23:07.680
<v Speaker 1>showing you what spectacular catch. It's really did everyone a

0:23:07.760 --> 0:23:10.400
<v Speaker 1>spectacular game that he was having. Yeah, and these last

0:23:10.440 --> 0:23:14.080
<v Speaker 1>two games by Ceedee Lamb has shut everyone up, including myself,

0:23:14.520 --> 0:23:17.320
<v Speaker 1>about how he needs to perform game in and game out.

0:23:17.720 --> 0:23:20.600
<v Speaker 1>This is why we drafted from Oklahoma because this was

0:23:20.720 --> 0:23:24.120
<v Speaker 1>the person that we saw. He was not shy about anything.

0:23:24.440 --> 0:23:27.520
<v Speaker 1>He was in the game from the beginning to the end.

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:31.719
<v Speaker 1>There was no mental lapse for Ceedee Lamb at Ou

0:23:32.040 --> 0:23:35.000
<v Speaker 1>and we can't have it here with the Cowboys, especially

0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:39.440
<v Speaker 1>when I see a Marii Cooper still bawling for the Browns. Help.

0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:42.120
<v Speaker 1>He broke that guy's ankle? Did you see that? Did

0:23:42.160 --> 0:23:44.920
<v Speaker 1>you see that? I see. I don't mind seeing a

0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Cooper break ankles as long as ceedee Lamb is catching

0:23:49.119 --> 0:23:52.040
<v Speaker 1>one hand right, So you go tip for tat as

0:23:52.080 --> 0:23:55.440
<v Speaker 1>far as I'm concerned. But show me why we kept you.

0:23:55.640 --> 0:23:57.760
<v Speaker 1>He's been showing that the last two games. Well, if

0:23:57.840 --> 0:23:59.760
<v Speaker 1>CD wouldn't have if they would have made that a

0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:03.360
<v Speaker 1>town for CD, we would never have Whackamo, That's right?

0:24:03.480 --> 0:24:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Which was which was the most memorable thing that we

0:24:10.119 --> 0:24:15.800
<v Speaker 1>will remember, the greatest celebration ever. I enjoyed that Army

0:24:15.920 --> 0:24:19.360
<v Speaker 1>Kettle producer supreme. You know that was where I was going.

0:24:22.040 --> 0:24:28.040
<v Speaker 1>We were thinking of this football who comes with the

0:24:28.080 --> 0:24:32.600
<v Speaker 1>best celebration, which, by the bye way, by just the best.

0:24:33.440 --> 0:24:40.840
<v Speaker 1>That was funny, popping up and down like that, and

0:24:41.240 --> 0:24:43.960
<v Speaker 1>you know that was better. That was better than the

0:24:44.119 --> 0:24:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Vikings bowling wall deal. They make it the Celly this week.

0:24:49.520 --> 0:24:53.280
<v Speaker 1>What's that? There's a sponsorship of a brand that you

0:24:53.400 --> 0:24:56.679
<v Speaker 1>can't say on this air by the NFL called the Celly.

0:24:57.280 --> 0:24:59.399
<v Speaker 1>And you can win like a trophy for having the

0:24:59.440 --> 0:25:01.840
<v Speaker 1>best celebration from the week in the NFL. Okay, I

0:25:02.040 --> 0:25:05.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't know that. Go look it up, and I'm surprised.

0:25:05.480 --> 0:25:10.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm surprised they didn't get penalized. Well, are they gonna

0:25:10.080 --> 0:25:14.800
<v Speaker 1>get Zeke got fine? Well, they also change the penalized

0:25:14.840 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 1>when Zeke threw well, well, Zeke got fine. But yeah

0:25:19.520 --> 0:25:21.359
<v Speaker 1>the first time. Yeah, but then the next year he

0:25:21.480 --> 0:25:25.720
<v Speaker 1>threw Dack in there right and then and then Dak

0:25:25.920 --> 0:25:28.760
<v Speaker 1>after the game said, yeah, that was pretty funny. Dad.

0:25:29.200 --> 0:25:30.920
<v Speaker 1>They got enough people that will pay their fine for

0:25:31.080 --> 0:25:34.160
<v Speaker 1>them also, but make sure you're up by two touches.

0:25:34.440 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 1>He also told them the head of tie makes up

0:25:39.240 --> 0:25:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I as will talk to Schultz after the game. Asked

0:25:41.080 --> 0:25:42.760
<v Speaker 1>him at that, and he was like, He's like, well,

0:25:42.960 --> 0:25:44.639
<v Speaker 1>I told the guys, well I can afford it. You

0:25:44.720 --> 0:25:47.200
<v Speaker 1>guys can't. So we'll probably just pass the tail around

0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:48.720
<v Speaker 1>and we'll get the rest of it taken care of.

0:25:50.280 --> 0:25:53.239
<v Speaker 1>If eighty seven doesn't stop acting like Travis kelcey, man,

0:25:53.400 --> 0:25:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I'm gonna do. This guy's really bawling.

0:25:56.920 --> 0:25:59.879
<v Speaker 1>The jump, the leap over the defensive back. You know

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:01.840
<v Speaker 1>he saw that coming You saw that coming back, yeah,

0:26:02.440 --> 0:26:05.200
<v Speaker 1>coming right. I was I was so excited that it

0:26:05.359 --> 0:26:07.399
<v Speaker 1>did come because at first I didn't think it was

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:10.040
<v Speaker 1>going to come into fruition. And not only did he

0:26:10.200 --> 0:26:13.440
<v Speaker 1>do it, he did it so well. He came down,

0:26:13.520 --> 0:26:16.760
<v Speaker 1>he didn't stumble. He was in a hurdle. He was

0:26:16.840 --> 0:26:19.400
<v Speaker 1>in a hurdle, a steeple chase, and he took off

0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:21.920
<v Speaker 1>after he hit the ground. It was that was no stumble,

0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:24.720
<v Speaker 1>and no, he was. He hit the ground and he

0:26:24.880 --> 0:26:28.399
<v Speaker 1>trucked the guy that was. Yeah, he wasn't gonna get

0:26:28.640 --> 0:26:31.800
<v Speaker 1>a second hurdle. He said no, actually said he was

0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:37.520
<v Speaker 1>too tired to. Plus he had hurt his knee earlier. Yeah,

0:26:38.359 --> 0:26:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Loo looked nothing like that. No he yeah, he And

0:26:41.640 --> 0:26:43.440
<v Speaker 1>as a matter of fact, I wrote that doubt I

0:26:43.480 --> 0:26:46.440
<v Speaker 1>said he trucked the second guy. And so when you

0:26:46.520 --> 0:26:50.159
<v Speaker 1>look at these tight ends, you know, all of them

0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:54.240
<v Speaker 1>adding up to one Kelsey, I'm loving it. And think

0:26:54.280 --> 0:26:57.119
<v Speaker 1>about the draft. I mean, this was a great draft

0:26:57.200 --> 0:26:59.760
<v Speaker 1>for tight ends. And I don't I don't know what

0:27:00.119 --> 0:27:02.760
<v Speaker 1>number how many tight ends went before Ferguson, but he

0:27:02.800 --> 0:27:05.800
<v Speaker 1>went in the fourth round, late fourth round, and oh

0:27:05.880 --> 0:27:08.800
<v Speaker 1>how many tight ends. Yeah, and and Hendershaw wasn't drafted

0:27:08.840 --> 0:27:12.119
<v Speaker 1>at all. And so credit to this scouting department to

0:27:12.240 --> 0:27:16.040
<v Speaker 1>have pinpointed these guys as guys that you could take

0:27:16.280 --> 0:27:18.240
<v Speaker 1>where they took them, whether it be in the fourth

0:27:18.359 --> 0:27:22.320
<v Speaker 1>round or undrafted, and they being able to play them

0:27:22.520 --> 0:27:26.280
<v Speaker 1>in some substantive situation in the rookie year. Rookie year

0:27:26.400 --> 0:27:29.480
<v Speaker 1>and we have they have an entire package now that

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:32.400
<v Speaker 1>they made up for these guys, right, those three three

0:27:32.440 --> 0:27:36.320
<v Speaker 1>tight end package. It is extremely confusing for the defense.

0:27:36.680 --> 0:27:38.640
<v Speaker 1>And if you just take out one of those tight

0:27:38.800 --> 0:27:41.160
<v Speaker 1>ends and put in the wide receiver, you're still looking

0:27:41.240 --> 0:27:44.440
<v Speaker 1>at a formation that Keller Moore has really been just

0:27:44.920 --> 0:27:48.040
<v Speaker 1>playing a round with that have had successful outcomes. Four

0:27:48.240 --> 0:27:53.760
<v Speaker 1>tight ends, that's right, because they've been as a fullback

0:27:53.920 --> 0:27:57.920
<v Speaker 1>and when they when Hendershot scored his touchdown, they were

0:27:58.040 --> 0:28:01.440
<v Speaker 1>in four tight ends. There were no wide receivers on

0:28:01.520 --> 0:28:05.000
<v Speaker 1>the field. Nate Nate from Frisco says credit to the

0:28:05.080 --> 0:28:07.159
<v Speaker 1>tight ends coach. No. I was just getting ready to

0:28:07.480 --> 0:28:10.920
<v Speaker 1>point out Blunda Wells was the guy that was pounding table.

0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:13.720
<v Speaker 1>He's a cool dude. Yeah, he was pounding the table

0:28:13.880 --> 0:28:17.840
<v Speaker 1>to draft Hendershot as early as the fifth round. He

0:28:17.960 --> 0:28:20.680
<v Speaker 1>had some ankle thing going on. I think people that's true.

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:23.760
<v Speaker 1>You're talking about this year. And and but when we

0:28:23.840 --> 0:28:26.639
<v Speaker 1>were in training camp, he kept talking about Hendershot and

0:28:26.720 --> 0:28:28.359
<v Speaker 1>I go, well, I guess I better learn to spell

0:28:28.400 --> 0:28:32.760
<v Speaker 1>to guys, yeah, not misspelling. Yeah, and see what he

0:28:32.880 --> 0:28:36.440
<v Speaker 1>looks like, you know, and uh, yeah, he's he's a

0:28:36.480 --> 0:28:40.200
<v Speaker 1>funny dude. By the way. But both those guys, both

0:28:40.520 --> 0:28:43.680
<v Speaker 1>both those guys were like four year starters in the

0:28:43.720 --> 0:28:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Big Ten. Yeah, And and I think you look at

0:28:46.120 --> 0:28:50.480
<v Speaker 1>that that come draft time, guys that can early on

0:28:50.640 --> 0:28:55.200
<v Speaker 1>in their collegiate career play and start and get a

0:28:55.320 --> 0:28:58.480
<v Speaker 1>lot of reps and then they do it for four years.

0:28:58.520 --> 0:29:00.720
<v Speaker 1>They become leaders on their team, especially at the tight

0:29:00.840 --> 0:29:03.200
<v Speaker 1>end position like that. That's a big When you have

0:29:03.320 --> 0:29:06.920
<v Speaker 1>outlet for a good team, then you're gonna get some

0:29:07.120 --> 0:29:09.960
<v Speaker 1>some touches. And all of those tight ends people are

0:29:10.040 --> 0:29:13.120
<v Speaker 1>realizing the tight ends. Well, I guess maybe Brady show

0:29:13.200 --> 0:29:15.400
<v Speaker 1>them how the Cowboys because have showed them way back then.

0:29:15.920 --> 0:29:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Tight Ends have always been important to a passing game,

0:29:19.480 --> 0:29:22.360
<v Speaker 1>especially when you want to keep it keep it diverse.

0:29:22.440 --> 0:29:25.240
<v Speaker 1>You don't want to be predictable. And we've always done

0:29:25.280 --> 0:29:27.960
<v Speaker 1>that here at the start. And I think McCarthy has

0:29:28.000 --> 0:29:29.840
<v Speaker 1>talked about the fact that the tight end position other

0:29:29.920 --> 0:29:33.360
<v Speaker 1>than the quarterback position. The tight end position is not

0:29:33.520 --> 0:29:36.719
<v Speaker 1>only important, but one of the most difficult to make

0:29:36.760 --> 0:29:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the transition from a mental standpoint because of all that

0:29:39.840 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>you that's required of the tight end, whether it's in

0:29:42.120 --> 0:29:44.080
<v Speaker 1>the run game, the pass game, whatever, A lot of

0:29:44.160 --> 0:29:47.040
<v Speaker 1>tight ends of formal quarterbacks. Yeah, that's right. Do you

0:29:47.160 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>reallyze and this note I would it would have gone

0:29:50.240 --> 0:29:53.960
<v Speaker 1>right by me. Hendershot and Billy Joe Ducree are the

0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:57.360
<v Speaker 1>only two cowboy tight ends to rush for a touchdown

0:29:57.880 --> 0:30:01.320
<v Speaker 1>on an offensive play. Because when we were in the

0:30:01.400 --> 0:30:05.000
<v Speaker 1>press box and it's like, well, Eric Bjornson, Jay Novochek,

0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:09.920
<v Speaker 1>well those were fake I think fake kicks, and they

0:30:10.560 --> 0:30:14.720
<v Speaker 1>that was a staple Billy Joe Duprie on the reverse. Yeah,

0:30:16.760 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, to rush for actually rushed for one um.

0:30:20.960 --> 0:30:23.719
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I mean all right, So now you cannot

0:30:23.760 --> 0:30:26.760
<v Speaker 1>assume that if they go two or three tight ends

0:30:26.880 --> 0:30:29.840
<v Speaker 1>that it's a run play. There you go, right, that

0:30:30.000 --> 0:30:32.720
<v Speaker 1>is going to a running back. And they're becoming better

0:30:32.840 --> 0:30:35.960
<v Speaker 1>blockers too, which is what needed to happen. Last year,

0:30:36.240 --> 0:30:39.400
<v Speaker 1>the blocking at tight end was susceptible with here's the

0:30:39.480 --> 0:30:42.239
<v Speaker 1>beauty of it. If you want to keep this thing

0:30:42.360 --> 0:30:45.600
<v Speaker 1>together next year. I know. The beauty of it is

0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:49.440
<v Speaker 1>the two rookies are not making much money, right and

0:30:49.840 --> 0:30:54.400
<v Speaker 1>obviously Schultz's gonna make a lot of money and similar

0:30:54.440 --> 0:30:57.040
<v Speaker 1>to what he is right now. I think that I

0:30:57.200 --> 0:31:01.480
<v Speaker 1>understand all the salary cap ramification and elsewhere, but it

0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:04.760
<v Speaker 1>is too good of a chemistry in that room and

0:31:05.640 --> 0:31:08.320
<v Speaker 1>on the field. Um that you got to take a

0:31:08.440 --> 0:31:11.560
<v Speaker 1>long hard look at keeping Schultz around here, even though

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:15.000
<v Speaker 1>you got the guys that can you know, take his

0:31:15.160 --> 0:31:17.840
<v Speaker 1>spot or whatever. It's just too good of a mix

0:31:18.000 --> 0:31:20.200
<v Speaker 1>right now that you want to do what you can

0:31:20.320 --> 0:31:22.720
<v Speaker 1>to keep it together, and maybe you can. Maybe Schultz

0:31:22.880 --> 0:31:26.280
<v Speaker 1>understands that too, that hey, I got it pretty good here.

0:31:26.400 --> 0:31:28.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, if they offer me whatever, you know, this

0:31:29.160 --> 0:31:33.280
<v Speaker 1>is working pretty well. Yeah, because think about it. I

0:31:34.000 --> 0:31:38.080
<v Speaker 1>was trying to remember last time they had two productive

0:31:38.680 --> 0:31:42.280
<v Speaker 1>pass catching tight ends. Like the second guy was always

0:31:42.360 --> 0:31:47.120
<v Speaker 1>the Alfredo Roberts right, the blocking type dude. Um, well,

0:31:47.200 --> 0:31:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Schultz was that guy when when when Joe was here

0:31:52.360 --> 0:31:55.040
<v Speaker 1>and Joe was well, Schultz was supposed to be but

0:31:55.200 --> 0:31:59.880
<v Speaker 1>his blocking, yeah, blocking became right. He's been up and down.

0:32:00.040 --> 0:32:02.400
<v Speaker 1>He started off a hell of a blocker and he

0:32:02.520 --> 0:32:04.760
<v Speaker 1>was second. Was a story on him coming out of

0:32:04.800 --> 0:32:07.840
<v Speaker 1>standard and then he became a pass became I think

0:32:07.840 --> 0:32:10.840
<v Speaker 1>he lost weight. He's like, hey man, my mentality is changing. Yeah,

0:32:10.920 --> 0:32:12.840
<v Speaker 1>you know so because he's a Stanford guy, he's smart

0:32:12.920 --> 0:32:15.280
<v Speaker 1>enough to know that the receptions are going to get

0:32:15.320 --> 0:32:17.720
<v Speaker 1>him the best franchise tag. All of a sudden he

0:32:17.760 --> 0:32:20.120
<v Speaker 1>can't block anymore. Last year, like what the hell happened?

0:32:20.160 --> 0:32:22.400
<v Speaker 1>But maybe those years when Witten was here, the second

0:32:22.480 --> 0:32:24.600
<v Speaker 1>tight end knew they weren't throwing it to him if

0:32:24.600 --> 0:32:27.440
<v Speaker 1>they were both on the field, right. The Cowboys tried

0:32:27.480 --> 0:32:31.440
<v Speaker 1>it back in the early nineties when they brought in

0:32:31.640 --> 0:32:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Novacheck and then they brought in Rob a Rob A

0:32:34.760 --> 0:32:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Walt and they said, oh free agents, right, and then

0:32:38.600 --> 0:32:41.400
<v Speaker 1>he got hurt and it never came to fruition. Well,

0:32:41.400 --> 0:32:43.600
<v Speaker 1>I remember how two tight ends worked when I was

0:32:43.680 --> 0:32:47.640
<v Speaker 1>with the Giants and Novacheck, and I believe his name

0:32:47.760 --> 0:32:51.840
<v Speaker 1>was Marsh. He had two tight ends that were really

0:32:51.920 --> 0:32:56.800
<v Speaker 1>good with with Arizona, Oh, with it before Novacheck got

0:32:56.880 --> 0:32:58.760
<v Speaker 1>where he got here, Well A Walt was in there,

0:33:00.160 --> 0:33:02.200
<v Speaker 1>they were that was the other guys where they had

0:33:02.320 --> 0:33:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Marsh as well. That was the veteran marsh as well.

0:33:05.360 --> 0:33:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Came from the Cardinals. Okay, and those those three tight ends,

0:33:09.560 --> 0:33:11.720
<v Speaker 1>they were hard to deal with. I remember Nova check On.

0:33:11.880 --> 0:33:16.720
<v Speaker 1>We get them on side kick and he grabs it

0:33:16.960 --> 0:33:20.040
<v Speaker 1>and this fool almost scores a touchdown. I mean like,

0:33:20.320 --> 0:33:22.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, who is this guy? And as a tight end,

0:33:22.640 --> 0:33:25.040
<v Speaker 1>you didn't really see that, you know. And I saw

0:33:25.080 --> 0:33:27.160
<v Speaker 1>how athletic he was. And when he went to the Cowboys,

0:33:27.200 --> 0:33:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I remember that guy, all right. Okay, So

0:33:29.520 --> 0:33:32.200
<v Speaker 1>here are the tight ends that went before Ferguson compliments

0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:36.320
<v Speaker 1>of the Producers Supreme. Trey McBride was the first tight

0:33:36.440 --> 0:33:37.840
<v Speaker 1>end that went in the second round. I know the

0:33:37.880 --> 0:33:41.240
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys were high on him. They thought about him when

0:33:41.280 --> 0:33:45.160
<v Speaker 1>they took Sam Williams, Jelanie Woods in the third round.

0:33:45.680 --> 0:33:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Who's with Indianapolis. Greg dulcitch Is with Denver went in

0:33:48.520 --> 0:33:53.120
<v Speaker 1>the third round. Jeremy Ruckard from Ohio State went in

0:33:53.120 --> 0:33:56.000
<v Speaker 1>the third round. They thought about trading up into the

0:33:56.080 --> 0:33:58.720
<v Speaker 1>third round and maybe to get a guy like him.

0:33:59.040 --> 0:34:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Kate Oughton went early fourth round of Tampa Bay. I

0:34:02.800 --> 0:34:07.200
<v Speaker 1>think they liked they liked him. And then Bellinger went

0:34:08.560 --> 0:34:12.360
<v Speaker 1>fourth round to the Giants. Charlie Kohler went right before

0:34:12.440 --> 0:34:14.759
<v Speaker 1>Ferguson at one twenty eight and Ferguson went at one

0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:16.839
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine. There were seven tight ends taking before him.

0:34:16.960 --> 0:34:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Isaiah Likely who's with the Ravens, went right after Ferguson two.

0:34:20.840 --> 0:34:22.800
<v Speaker 1>That was how good that tight end class was in

0:34:22.920 --> 0:34:27.600
<v Speaker 1>that second through fourth round. So anyway, they hit on

0:34:27.719 --> 0:34:32.040
<v Speaker 1>those two and hopefully you know, and in fact on

0:34:32.120 --> 0:34:35.480
<v Speaker 1>the Schultz contract deal. You know, with these these guys

0:34:35.600 --> 0:34:37.560
<v Speaker 1>being rookies this year, you can go a couple of

0:34:37.680 --> 0:34:40.800
<v Speaker 1>years with Schultz, you know, making all the money, and

0:34:40.960 --> 0:34:43.759
<v Speaker 1>maybe you give him a multi year deal instead of

0:34:43.840 --> 0:34:48.640
<v Speaker 1>franchising Ryan because I figured out if you had franchised

0:34:48.760 --> 0:34:52.000
<v Speaker 1>him two years in a row, it would have came

0:34:52.080 --> 0:34:58.120
<v Speaker 1>out to the average of what the tight end in

0:34:58.239 --> 0:35:02.880
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland ended up signing for the got franchised. Um, he

0:35:03.080 --> 0:35:05.960
<v Speaker 1>just did something. The joke, yeah, joke, yeah, I want

0:35:06.000 --> 0:35:08.160
<v Speaker 1>to catch he made yesterday? How about that? You see

0:35:08.200 --> 0:35:12.359
<v Speaker 1>that one? Wow, that was c Lambs catch right there.

0:35:12.600 --> 0:35:16.080
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what if you're a receiver tight end, now,

0:35:16.200 --> 0:35:18.919
<v Speaker 1>if you can't catch with one hand, I don't watch

0:35:18.960 --> 0:35:21.640
<v Speaker 1>you get out of here. That's right, you got that

0:35:21.840 --> 0:35:24.520
<v Speaker 1>CD said, they've been holding my one arm the whole time,

0:35:24.600 --> 0:35:27.240
<v Speaker 1>so I caught it with yeah, the other way. He didn't.

0:35:27.280 --> 0:35:28.920
<v Speaker 1>You want to do it. If you can't catch with

0:35:29.080 --> 0:35:30.480
<v Speaker 1>one hand or do the whack a mole in the

0:35:30.520 --> 0:35:32.560
<v Speaker 1>red bottle, then we don't want You're out of here,

0:35:32.600 --> 0:35:35.640
<v Speaker 1>all right? We continue with more mix shots in a moment.

0:35:36.760 --> 0:35:40.160
<v Speaker 1>We paid how much for those lessons? She's doing great?

0:35:40.520 --> 0:35:43.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, totally. Can you pass me a pepsi zero sugar?

0:35:46.680 --> 0:35:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Great job, honey, Oh look at that. That's not the end,

0:35:51.680 --> 0:35:55.040
<v Speaker 1>No way. Now it's time for the encore. You know what,

0:35:55.120 --> 0:35:58.399
<v Speaker 1>You're right? Five times not enough times for everyone who

0:35:58.440 --> 0:36:02.160
<v Speaker 1>traded in rock concerts for their kids recitals. You've compromised enough.

<v Speaker 1>recipients at the game on Sunday night. I'm looking for

0:38:52.400 --> 0:38:54.160
<v Speaker 1>the email right now and I'll get the details for

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:59.160
<v Speaker 1>you when I find it. But great, great thing that

0:38:59.239 --> 0:39:01.360
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys in the NFL are doing this weekend is

0:39:01.440 --> 0:39:04.800
<v Speaker 1>salute to service, which, by the way, the Medal of

0:39:04.920 --> 0:39:09.200
<v Speaker 1>Honor Museum is on the way right in Arlington. Got

0:39:09.360 --> 0:39:13.080
<v Speaker 1>rid of the Little League ballpark and the starting construction

0:39:13.160 --> 0:39:17.880
<v Speaker 1>of the museum next to or I guess just before

0:39:17.960 --> 0:39:26.400
<v Speaker 1>you get to at and T Stadium. And let's see,

0:39:27.040 --> 0:39:33.280
<v Speaker 1>I got a little more information on that. The national

0:39:33.400 --> 0:39:37.760
<v Speaker 1>campaign to build the museum in America's heartland in Arlington, Texas,

0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:40.200
<v Speaker 1>and a monument in Washington, d C. And recognition of

0:39:40.239 --> 0:39:44.799
<v Speaker 1>the service and sacrifice of America's Medal of Honor recipients

0:39:44.960 --> 0:39:47.520
<v Speaker 1>was part of that too, So very good. I didn't

0:39:47.560 --> 0:39:49.960
<v Speaker 1>know we were the heartland. We are the heartland of

0:39:50.000 --> 0:39:54.400
<v Speaker 1>America right here. I thought that was more like Kansas City, Braska.

0:39:54.640 --> 0:39:58.160
<v Speaker 1>But I guess it's stretches. Yeah, it stretches like the

0:39:58.280 --> 0:40:02.759
<v Speaker 1>tackle box does in college football. Oh, something happen in

0:40:02.800 --> 0:40:07.839
<v Speaker 1>the Missouri game the Kentucky game. Oh hey, so when

0:40:07.880 --> 0:40:11.640
<v Speaker 1>the snap went thirty five yards over the punter's head

0:40:12.080 --> 0:40:14.840
<v Speaker 1>and he recovered it at the three and the Missouri

0:40:15.280 --> 0:40:17.719
<v Speaker 1>special teams guy's going to make a tackle and he

0:40:17.800 --> 0:40:21.120
<v Speaker 1>gets the punt off and they roughed him. You only

0:40:21.160 --> 0:40:26.879
<v Speaker 1>get one rants show? Never mind, I think we've talked

0:40:26.880 --> 0:40:29.440
<v Speaker 1>about this on the show before, and we have. They

0:40:29.560 --> 0:40:32.200
<v Speaker 1>just have a short memory. All right, Well that's because

0:40:32.239 --> 0:40:37.040
<v Speaker 1>we didn't care. Now, I got my own problems at

0:40:37.080 --> 0:40:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Grand Selected. You got your problems with grandmlin I got

0:40:40.680 --> 0:40:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I met o you. So you going to bowl game?

0:40:43.560 --> 0:40:45.239
<v Speaker 1>As a matter of fact, we're are going to a

0:40:45.280 --> 0:40:48.359
<v Speaker 1>ball and Missouri is too because they beat Arkansas. All right,

0:40:48.480 --> 0:40:54.880
<v Speaker 1>where do you go? Uh? Moving on? Now? You mentioned

0:40:54.920 --> 0:40:58.400
<v Speaker 1>an overtime game that you watched yesterday in the NFL.

0:40:58.600 --> 0:41:01.279
<v Speaker 1>What else caught your eye yesterday in the NFL? What

0:41:01.480 --> 0:41:03.919
<v Speaker 1>else called my eye? What else should kiss my eye?

0:41:04.160 --> 0:41:07.120
<v Speaker 1>Talk to me? Well? The Eagles? The fact that the

0:41:07.200 --> 0:41:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Eagles ran for three hundred yards. Can somebody tell me

0:41:10.400 --> 0:41:14.239
<v Speaker 1>where the Packer's defense was yesterday, especially on on Jalen

0:41:14.320 --> 0:41:16.360
<v Speaker 1>hurt scrambles. I don't think they got the memo that

0:41:16.480 --> 0:41:20.640
<v Speaker 1>he's good, he can run, tuck it and run, I mean,

0:41:20.800 --> 0:41:24.319
<v Speaker 1>and that they'll call that place even even Dak could

0:41:24.360 --> 0:41:28.239
<v Speaker 1>have gone that length with a bad leg that the end.

0:41:28.320 --> 0:41:30.400
<v Speaker 1>Do you think they what? What wasn't it? The Colts

0:41:30.480 --> 0:41:33.120
<v Speaker 1>game when he ran it in for the winning touchdown

0:41:33.320 --> 0:41:36.360
<v Speaker 1>at the end right, and it was like last quarterback

0:41:36.480 --> 0:41:39.640
<v Speaker 1>draw where the red Sea party in the middle. It

0:41:39.719 --> 0:41:42.680
<v Speaker 1>was beautiful. Yeah, so you would hurt had one hundred

0:41:42.719 --> 0:41:45.480
<v Speaker 1>and fifty seven yards rushing on seventeen cars in the

0:41:45.560 --> 0:41:47.840
<v Speaker 1>first quarter. He had one hundred and twenty. Yeah, he

0:41:47.960 --> 0:41:50.320
<v Speaker 1>had more rushing yards than he had passing yards. He

0:41:50.360 --> 0:41:54.879
<v Speaker 1>had one fifty seven rushing, one fifty three passing. And see,

0:41:54.960 --> 0:41:58.440
<v Speaker 1>that's that gives me. I see, I'm watching them now,

0:41:58.800 --> 0:42:03.839
<v Speaker 1>and I'm watching the nine and last year I had

0:42:03.920 --> 0:42:07.480
<v Speaker 1>my doubts going into the playoffs because they looked more

0:42:07.520 --> 0:42:09.879
<v Speaker 1>confident than the Cowboys. This year, I don't. I don't

0:42:09.920 --> 0:42:12.279
<v Speaker 1>feel that way. I don't care who comes here, I

0:42:12.320 --> 0:42:16.000
<v Speaker 1>don't care where we go. Actually, I dare say, because

0:42:16.040 --> 0:42:18.839
<v Speaker 1>I would compare this Cowboys team to that team they

0:42:18.880 --> 0:42:24.000
<v Speaker 1>went to Philadelphia and with Kmart Kelvin Martin and returned

0:42:24.040 --> 0:42:28.920
<v Speaker 1>that return from touchdown. That team, to me, it reminds

0:42:28.960 --> 0:42:32.120
<v Speaker 1>me of this team. They're right there on the verge.

0:42:32.160 --> 0:42:37.239
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember that team until they beat Washington was

0:42:37.360 --> 0:42:40.359
<v Speaker 1>six and five, and then they won the final five

0:42:40.480 --> 0:42:46.240
<v Speaker 1>games and with Steve Burline coming in in the second

0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:50.000
<v Speaker 1>third quarter of the Washington game. I guess he gets

0:42:50.040 --> 0:42:54.120
<v Speaker 1>a save because Troy had him in the lead with

0:42:54.360 --> 0:42:57.520
<v Speaker 1>the hill Mary at the end of the half, which

0:42:57.600 --> 0:43:00.920
<v Speaker 1>Aikman hated having to throw those because they always get

0:43:01.000 --> 0:43:05.120
<v Speaker 1>intercepted and it ruins your quarterback. Rady, and he was like,

0:43:05.560 --> 0:43:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I guess at halftime he went in and told Jimmy,

0:43:07.880 --> 0:43:10.439
<v Speaker 1>he goes, you know, maybe the worms starting to turn here.

0:43:10.760 --> 0:43:13.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, we actually completed one y because he hated

0:43:14.080 --> 0:43:15.440
<v Speaker 1>when they did it at the end of the day,

0:43:15.440 --> 0:43:17.480
<v Speaker 1>and it gave them a spark. It gave them a

0:43:17.520 --> 0:43:21.160
<v Speaker 1>spark and came Mart ended that with that point return. Yep,

0:43:21.560 --> 0:43:23.640
<v Speaker 1>and that wasn't an easy point return. He got here

0:43:23.680 --> 0:43:25.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of times and he thanks straight up the

0:43:25.680 --> 0:43:28.719
<v Speaker 1>middle and thanks to my man with the block. And

0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:32.879
<v Speaker 1>I said, he was the funniest dude. Whatever, I swear

0:43:32.920 --> 0:43:36.120
<v Speaker 1>that's your favorite. I think he's your favorite. I loved him.

0:43:36.239 --> 0:43:39.440
<v Speaker 1>He was great. So this this team once again, this

0:43:39.640 --> 0:43:42.880
<v Speaker 1>team is reminded me of that to where you know

0:43:43.080 --> 0:43:45.520
<v Speaker 1>last year, well, you know, we just really crapped the

0:43:45.560 --> 0:43:49.520
<v Speaker 1>bed against the Niners. I just don't see us even

0:43:49.600 --> 0:43:52.120
<v Speaker 1>after writing the ship this year. What we have done

0:43:52.160 --> 0:43:55.000
<v Speaker 1>the same thing this year, just giving up unnecessary yogis

0:43:55.000 --> 0:43:58.520
<v Speaker 1>while against the run. I think this team has figured

0:43:58.560 --> 0:44:01.720
<v Speaker 1>it out. We've never made the adjustment once we started

0:44:01.760 --> 0:44:04.960
<v Speaker 1>giving up running yardage. We never made the adjustment last year.

0:44:05.640 --> 0:44:08.239
<v Speaker 1>This year, I see us making the adjustment, and just

0:44:08.480 --> 0:44:10.600
<v Speaker 1>in time. As far as I'm concerned, I think this

0:44:10.719 --> 0:44:14.440
<v Speaker 1>team is more apt to be the team that carries

0:44:14.680 --> 0:44:19.320
<v Speaker 1>the boom box on their shoulder teams, which is what

0:44:19.440 --> 0:44:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Debo did last year. And but we well we might

0:44:22.000 --> 0:44:23.960
<v Speaker 1>not have it, but we have it here, and we

0:44:24.040 --> 0:44:26.160
<v Speaker 1>got it here. I truly believe that that's what this

0:44:26.239 --> 0:44:29.759
<v Speaker 1>team has and and they've been what the word says

0:44:30.120 --> 0:44:32.600
<v Speaker 1>coming out of the locker room resilient. Yeah. I mean

0:44:32.640 --> 0:44:35.359
<v Speaker 1>they're losing this game thirteen to seven a halftime, right,

0:44:35.719 --> 0:44:40.520
<v Speaker 1>two interceptions, and they overcome the two interceptions, They overcome

0:44:41.000 --> 0:44:45.400
<v Speaker 1>the deficit, they overcome the illness and the fact that

0:44:45.560 --> 0:44:49.640
<v Speaker 1>you're playing for four days later, and that when you

0:44:49.719 --> 0:44:51.560
<v Speaker 1>asked me, what do I remember about the game, That's

0:44:51.640 --> 0:44:54.399
<v Speaker 1>really what I was going when you said earlier, that's

0:44:54.480 --> 0:44:58.360
<v Speaker 1>really what I remember about the game is us overcoming mistakes.

0:44:58.880 --> 0:45:02.359
<v Speaker 1>Those two interceptions last year, those two interceptions, We're gonna

0:45:02.360 --> 0:45:05.160
<v Speaker 1>lose that game, right. We're not doing that this year because,

0:45:05.320 --> 0:45:09.400
<v Speaker 1>first of all, our offensive line, they are handling and

0:45:09.680 --> 0:45:14.000
<v Speaker 1>controlling the pace of the entire game. Our offensive line

0:45:14.160 --> 0:45:17.640
<v Speaker 1>is that good, and our defensive line and linebackers with

0:45:17.880 --> 0:45:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the ability to stop the run these last couple of games.

0:45:22.080 --> 0:45:24.560
<v Speaker 1>To me, that gives me a lot of confidence in

0:45:24.600 --> 0:45:26.319
<v Speaker 1>this team. So who is the player of the game

0:45:26.360 --> 0:45:32.799
<v Speaker 1>on Thursday. That's an easy call. It's Parsons. I can't

0:45:32.840 --> 0:45:35.719
<v Speaker 1>go past anyone else, I mean, unless you want Cee

0:45:35.960 --> 0:45:39.759
<v Speaker 1>Lamb showing his butt. How about Dak Prescott. He was

0:45:39.840 --> 0:45:42.840
<v Speaker 1>ten of sixteen for one hundred and sixteen yards. I

0:45:42.920 --> 0:45:45.160
<v Speaker 1>think the first half. Let me see, I got it

0:45:45.320 --> 0:45:51.280
<v Speaker 1>right here. He was ten of sixteen, one sixteen, two interceptions.

0:45:51.440 --> 0:45:54.920
<v Speaker 1>He finishes the game twenty one of thirty for two

0:45:55.120 --> 0:45:59.239
<v Speaker 1>sixty one two touchdowns and still the two interceptions. So

0:45:59.440 --> 0:46:02.239
<v Speaker 1>despite the interceptions, he ended up with a ninety one

0:46:02.400 --> 0:46:07.880
<v Speaker 1>point nine one quarterback rating. He was awfully good the

0:46:07.960 --> 0:46:11.879
<v Speaker 1>second half. And you know, like I said, those two interceptions,

0:46:13.520 --> 0:46:17.360
<v Speaker 1>don't it didn't really bother? Yeah, it wasn't really to me.

0:46:17.600 --> 0:46:21.600
<v Speaker 1>I felt that even with those two interceptions. Not just that,

0:46:21.800 --> 0:46:26.200
<v Speaker 1>but this entire team was still feeling really good about themselves.

0:46:26.280 --> 0:46:30.040
<v Speaker 1>It was almost like I got this idea that they

0:46:30.120 --> 0:46:33.440
<v Speaker 1>had scored forty points the game before, and it was

0:46:33.560 --> 0:46:36.800
<v Speaker 1>like they were in a hurry to score forty again

0:46:37.560 --> 0:46:41.399
<v Speaker 1>and they were not willing to kind of grind things out,

0:46:41.600 --> 0:46:44.480
<v Speaker 1>which you have to do on Thanksgiving, right because you're

0:46:44.520 --> 0:46:47.719
<v Speaker 1>playing in just four days later. And he tried to

0:46:47.840 --> 0:46:52.960
<v Speaker 1>hit some perfect passes that you know they worked perfect. Okay,

0:46:53.600 --> 0:46:58.279
<v Speaker 1>my MVP. It's the same as I haven't don't give

0:46:58.320 --> 0:47:01.160
<v Speaker 1>me mess whack of moles. Oh no, no, it's the

0:47:01.280 --> 0:47:07.560
<v Speaker 1>same as a message I just got from Zeke is

0:47:07.640 --> 0:47:12.320
<v Speaker 1>the MVP with the defense. Zeke is the MVP with

0:47:12.480 --> 0:47:15.400
<v Speaker 1>the defense in that game. That's right. I could take that.

0:47:15.520 --> 0:47:19.120
<v Speaker 1>And it's those long, punishing drives and he was he was.

0:47:19.520 --> 0:47:22.560
<v Speaker 1>He's the representative of that the offensive line that you

0:47:22.680 --> 0:47:24.719
<v Speaker 1>talk about and everything, and the way he ran the

0:47:24.800 --> 0:47:30.000
<v Speaker 1>ball and Pollard too, But that that's seventy five yard

0:47:30.120 --> 0:47:32.800
<v Speaker 1>drive to start the third quarter. Take command of that

0:47:32.960 --> 0:47:36.720
<v Speaker 1>game after a ninety three yard drive earlier and another

0:47:37.239 --> 0:47:41.000
<v Speaker 1>long eighty yard drive later when you had the defense,

0:47:41.120 --> 0:47:45.480
<v Speaker 1>they were they were controlling things, not with lucky plays.

0:47:46.200 --> 0:47:50.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, they controlled it with consistency. You know, they

0:47:50.560 --> 0:47:54.400
<v Speaker 1>they played they almost forced the Giants to do what

0:47:54.520 --> 0:47:56.840
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys wanted them to do. And when you have

0:47:56.960 --> 0:48:00.279
<v Speaker 1>a defensive line, defensive front, I'm counting those linebackers as well,

0:48:00.320 --> 0:48:03.600
<v Speaker 1>that whole front seven. To me, they never seemed out

0:48:03.640 --> 0:48:06.319
<v Speaker 1>of sorts at all doing the ball game right. There

0:48:06.400 --> 0:48:08.400
<v Speaker 1>was never any time, well man that gashness and make

0:48:08.440 --> 0:48:10.920
<v Speaker 1>what's going on and we're confused? That was never that

0:48:11.080 --> 0:48:12.480
<v Speaker 1>moment doing the ball And you know they had a

0:48:12.560 --> 0:48:15.399
<v Speaker 1>couple of guys make plays that don't play that much.

0:48:15.880 --> 0:48:20.200
<v Speaker 1>When jay Ron Curse went out, they threw right at

0:48:21.080 --> 0:48:25.240
<v Speaker 1>mcquamu and he broke the ball up. And then because

0:48:26.520 --> 0:48:32.320
<v Speaker 1>before and because of the illnesses and things, uh Nashan

0:48:32.440 --> 0:48:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Wright was active, Kelvin Joseph was down with the illness

0:48:36.520 --> 0:48:39.319
<v Speaker 1>and he made a special teams play and I said, wow,

0:48:39.480 --> 0:48:41.560
<v Speaker 1>we hadn't seen him play hardly at all, and he

0:48:41.680 --> 0:48:43.759
<v Speaker 1>stepped up and made a play. So they had some

0:48:44.000 --> 0:48:49.560
<v Speaker 1>young guys doing things and Armstrong continuing to continue. But

0:48:49.680 --> 0:48:52.840
<v Speaker 1>I had a mail bag question about you know, you

0:48:52.920 --> 0:48:57.759
<v Speaker 1>know you always mentioned Bill Parcels after Thanksgiving. So what

0:48:57.840 --> 0:49:00.320
<v Speaker 1>do you think of this team and what's the difference

0:49:00.440 --> 0:49:03.480
<v Speaker 1>between last year? And I said the offensive line is

0:49:03.560 --> 0:49:07.480
<v Speaker 1>playing better. They are. They were having problems last year

0:49:07.600 --> 0:49:12.520
<v Speaker 1>protecting and running the football, and this year we've seen

0:49:12.640 --> 0:49:15.840
<v Speaker 1>them grow to the point now where all right of

0:49:15.920 --> 0:49:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Tyring comes back, okay, and we got room for him.

0:49:20.000 --> 0:49:25.200
<v Speaker 1>But the offensive line is playing really well right now? Okay,

0:49:25.760 --> 0:49:28.840
<v Speaker 1>where it's twelve forty nine, No way, it's we're in overtime.

0:49:28.920 --> 0:49:31.319
<v Speaker 1>How did that happen? We went to overtime, extra time,

0:49:31.600 --> 0:49:35.600
<v Speaker 1>extra time, all right, but we knew it in that game.

0:49:35.719 --> 0:49:38.640
<v Speaker 1>You never know how much more you'll welcome to overtime,

0:49:38.680 --> 0:49:42.040
<v Speaker 1>all right, So it's time to move on from talk

0:49:42.160 --> 0:49:45.240
<v Speaker 1>at you again tomorrow here on Mick Shot Joe Cowboys.

0:49:45.920 --> 0:49:48.560
<v Speaker 1>This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

0:49:48.840 --> 0:49:50.839
<v Speaker 1>and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
