Mickey, 15 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to start with Everson. Everson seemed alarmed when 16 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: he saw us that we both have well we're not. 17 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: There's not jackets that I have.

Oh, 22 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: terms of some reason I got I got that terminology 23 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: from from Gene Stallings, right, and for some reason we 24 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: saw always chap his ass.

So I we've missed 26 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: you just the same Everson, he was away for months. 27 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: For two days, two shows in a row, he realized 28 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: how good he had it, you know, Yeah, how that go? 29 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: He hanging out with those young guys.

Uh well, mickey, 33 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: you have a good bye. A weekend I did actually 34 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: went uh two days in a row without really doing 35 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: any work, uh and not shaving. I thought it was 36 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: a yeah, that was like it was about that was 37 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: that was a bonus, right. I was any different than 38 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: the other week here because I gotta because you gotta 39 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,839 Speaker 1: work at least on Sunday on those other weekend days, right, 40 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: if you can call it work. Yeah, well that's true too. Yeah, 41 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: you're supposed to look good. I guess trying to love 42 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: not having the pressure of watching the Cowboys. It's just 43 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: so nice to relax and watch games as opposed to 44 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 1: sitting there just biting my nails put them for these Cowboys. 45 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: So a very relaxed weekend for me, I must well. Ever, 46 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: somewhere you are rooting for the Giants to beat the 47 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: Eagles yesterday. I was, and I was not disappointed. I 48 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: love the fact that the Giants won. You know, I 49 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: keep looking It's a personal thing. I keep looking at 50 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and I keep trying to compare him to 51 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, because that's always the comparison, you know, And 52 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: how would one work with the weapons that he has 53 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: versus what the weapons that he has? And so I 54 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: think that that comparison always boes well and favorite. I 55 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: think people are used to try and compare, and I 56 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: know that that I do like Carson Wentz guts. I 57 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: love how he never gives up, But I don't I 58 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: think Dak has always played with less desperation and even 59 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 1: with the mistakes as he's made his career, Carson Wentz 60 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: has made so many more mistakes. So just on a 61 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: personal note, I was comparing as I was watching the 62 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: game Mickey, always your takeaway from Sunday. You know the 63 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: good part about the Cowboys not playing as you sit 64 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: there and you watch other teams suffer, you know, you 65 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: see them have to grind away, and you know other 66 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: teams make mistakes too. The other teams don't sometimes play 67 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: as well. Although I don't think I've ever seen anybody 68 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: get more lucky than Arizona in my entire life, by 69 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: the way, and those things don't seem to happen to 70 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. That's Kyler Murray for you. Bag. Yeah, yeah, 71 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: let your luck is made and you throw the ball. 72 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: Some skill involve there, Mickey. Yeah, and throw the ball 73 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: as far as I can in the air and then 74 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: have my tall receiver go up with the greatest hands 75 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: ever and make a catch with three guys hanging on him, 76 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: just the way Kyler planned it, right, Yes, of course, 77 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: well it was he. It was No, it was the 78 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: way the Arizona GM Steve Kim planned it when he 79 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: worked that trade in the offseason. Playmakers make plays like that. 80 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: It's also the way. It's also the way the Cardinals 81 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: organization made the decision when they hired Cliff Kingsbury, and 82 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: Kingsbury said no, I'm I want to draft Kyler Murray 83 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: number one, and he knew what kind of player he's 84 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: got there. I mean that was those were not slow 85 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: footed guys that Kyler Murray was a looting on that play. 86 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: That was Ed Oliver man that was coming and Ed Oliver, 87 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: as Baker Mayfield can attest because he faced him in 88 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: college at the university when when when oh, you played 89 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: the University of Houston and let owe you up? And 90 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: they in fact that was with Greg what a quarterback 91 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: for the Houston Cougars then. But the star of that 92 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: game was the freshman defensive lineman Ed Oliver, who everyone 93 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: was going, who the heck is that guy? Well, Ed 94 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,679 Speaker 1: Oliver in that game the other day, he's pursuing Kyler Murray. 95 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: He's got to have an up speed. That wasn't a rollout. 96 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: That was a run for your life. Create enough time 97 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: when you get to the sideline you're going left, create 98 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: enough time you get to the sideline where you can 99 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: plant and throw it fifty yards downfield. And oh, by 100 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: the way, find Hopkins, the guy that you want to 101 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: throw it to, and throw it where he can catch it. 102 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: That was the only place you can throw the ball. 103 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: He was running out that room. But no Everson, Everson, Everson, 104 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: that was all. That was all luck. That was all luck, Everson. 105 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: I understand Bill Spags has never seen one that's his 106 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: hype accomplishing so much. I think that's what it is. 107 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, DeAndre Hopkins is probably a foot taller than me. No, 108 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: I mean kind of murder. But let's not forget who 109 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: made the play, Okay, Everson. I gotta tell a story 110 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: from I all who been about sixteen years ago now, 111 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: uh with Cowboys TV, we did a Mickey and I 112 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: broadcast high school football playoff game at Texas Stadium. It 113 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: was South Lake Carol against Stent' Ryan or somebody. I 114 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: think it's didn't Ryan. Anyway, Mickey goes down on the 115 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: field before the game because Chase Daniel is the quarterback 116 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: for South Lake Carroll and he had committed the University 117 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: of Missouri, and he had to go down there and 118 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: compare his hike with Chase daniels hike in pregame warm ups, 119 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: trying to determine if this guy was tall enough to 120 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: play a quarterback at the major college level at the 121 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: University of Missouri. And Mickey had turned out he could right, yeah, 122 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: and he wasn't much taller than me either, by the way, 123 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: So when he's still he's still drawing a paycheck in 124 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: the NFL. So when he got when he got here, 125 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: he had his first charity, a golf tournament, and they 126 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: asked me the MC so I basically told that story 127 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: about it. And he's standing next to me, and I 128 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: cracked everybody up. And he stands next to me. He 129 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: gets on his tippy toes so he can see over me, 130 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: by the way, too, so he remembered, here, am I 131 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: tall enough? Now? Well, they've gotten shorter SAgs. Kyle Murray 132 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: is shorter than Chase Daniels, but they got faster than 133 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: no kid. But okay, so how about that game though, 134 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: Arizona and Buffalo. This just goes to show you how 135 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 1: things can change. And this is at as far as 136 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: the playoff picture is concerned for both those teams. All right. 137 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: First off, Trayvon Big Trayvon diggs older brother Stefan makes 138 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: the touchdown grab with thirty four seconds left it Oh, 139 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 1: by the way, whoever the announcer was on that game 140 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: at the time that he made the reception, Trayvon Diggs 141 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: is playing better than any ride receiver in the whole 142 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: National Football League this year. Stefon Diggs is and uh yeah, 143 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: and uh I wonder if Hopkins was listening to the 144 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: TV broadcast. He said, oh, yeah, he's playing better. But anyway, 145 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: beyond that, all right, if Buffalo wins that game, they 146 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: are sitting there at what at eight and two? I 147 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: guess two, and they've got lead of more than a 148 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: game over Miami in the East whatever, a game and 149 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: a half, whatever would be. Arizona was staring at five 150 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: and four. Okay, by virtue of Murray making that play 151 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: to Hopkins, Arizona is now six and three. They're tied 152 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: with the Rams and the Seahawks for first place in 153 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: the NFC West, and Buffalo's in a dogfight. There were 154 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: a half game lead in the AFC East. One play, 155 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: does that? Yep? And that's how that's how that's the 156 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: difference in this league. A lot it ends up being 157 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: one play. And we've seen that hit the Cowboys many times. Right, Well, 158 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: I think I think what it's not just that, it's 159 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: all the things that are going on, not just this Sunday, 160 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: but laying up to it, because the storyline was Seattle 161 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: was five, and oh, I mean they were they were rolling, 162 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, And all of a sudden they've 163 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: lost I think three out of the last four. They're 164 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: sitting there at six and three now, So yeah, so 165 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: you're looking at them running away Russell Wilson. Every year, 166 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: I was fussing with my son. Every year they try 167 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,839 Speaker 1: and put Russell Wilson in the MVP race, just like 168 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: after week four. He's always the guy that they say 169 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: he's running away with it, and you know it's up 170 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: for everybody else to catch up. And then just like 171 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: true Russell Wilson, Nope, well maybe a fault of his own, 172 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: but just as his nature, he gambles so much that 173 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: he gets himself into a lot of trouble. Happened last year, 174 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: happened the year before that. That's his m So you 175 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: have to catch him on the downslide because otherwise he 176 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: will eat your part. As the Cowboys can stay and 177 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: he's not playing with a good defense, so he's kind 178 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: of like the Dak Prescott thing, always forcing it. So 179 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: now they've lost three. Now you're looking at Buffalo, who 180 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: was gonna have a chance to put Arizonne even further behind. 181 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: Now they're in first place. Here's Miami with two of 182 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: two is lighting it up down in Miami. Great move 183 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: by the coach, by the way, because everyone's thinking Fitzpatrick 184 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: was really misused abusing that manner. Now we see why 185 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: two was a starter. And you're talking about the East 186 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: in the AFC, and I think it's the West in 187 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 1: the NFC. Everything that that that weekend yesterday made everything 188 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: even more convoluted than him with him all right, let 189 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: me let me break in with some breaking news. I 190 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: got some breaking news for you. Ed Warder is reporting 191 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: this and he's pretty connected with that Saints organization. In 192 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: Sean Payton. Saints quarterback Drew Brees has multiple rib fractures 193 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: on both sides of his chest and a collapse lung 194 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: on the right side. According to Edward, the collapse lung 195 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: just just breaking right now. Multiple rib fractures on both 196 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: sides of both side and the collapse lung. How do 197 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: you get him on both sides? That's what That's what 198 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: happens when you're playing over forty years old. Was a 199 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: bunch of twenty year olds, you know. And that's fun 200 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: because I got you about one hundred pounds. Did you 201 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 1: did you hear in Sean Payton Sean Payton's interview after 202 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: the game when they asked him could when did you 203 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: know that Drew Brees couldn't go? And he said, well, 204 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: at halftime he came up to me and said, you know, coach, uh, 205 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not sure I can I can go. 206 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can do well enough. Couldn't 207 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: do well enough. You got multiple crack ribs and a 208 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: collapse lung, and it's like, I don't know, coach, I 209 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: don't know if I could go or not Golee and 210 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: he's still on the sidelines and yeah, oh yeah, you 211 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: know he I think he should have been in the 212 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: hospital somewhere taking care of myself. Well, you remember that 213 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:54,719 Speaker 1: happened to That happened to Tony Romo, the ribs and 214 00:13:54,800 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: a collapse lung, and you know, I don't know, be petty. 215 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: But then I guess I am bad call on the 216 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: sack itself. I believe the guy was penalized just because 217 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: the sack was so violent, but it was it was 218 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: within the realms of a regular quarterback sack. But he 219 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: was actually penalized because he hit he hit Drew Brees, 220 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: so hard and I'm just reading further on I'm reading 221 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: what Ed is just now. I guess he reported that 222 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: on ESPN and he just now tweeted about it. Here's 223 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: what his tweets says. Results of medical evaluations performed today 224 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: on Saints quarterback Drew Brees revealed that he has multiple 225 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: rib fractures on both sides of his chest and a 226 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: collapsed lung on the right side, injury suffered over two weeks. 227 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: It is uncertain how much time he might miss. So 228 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: it's not just one. It wasn't just the sack that 229 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: did it. It's been multiple hits over the course of 230 00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks here. So now you're looking at 231 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: the Saints at seven and two after winning over San Francis, 232 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: you know, and everyone's making a big deal in the 233 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: off season because Taysom Hill had the gadget plays and 234 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: he was being used as a in a unique way 235 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: by Sean Payton, and they paid him some money and 236 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: uh and then oh, by the way, they went ahead 237 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: and signed Jamis Winston just to just to have him there. Uh, 238 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: and who do they go to? They go to Jamis 239 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: Winston instead of Hill. When Breeze gets hurt well there's 240 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: another quarterback that he took a chance to go somewhere 241 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: to be the backup, and never you know, thinking well, 242 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: if I get a chance, I can reprove myself and 243 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: it falls in his lap, and just like Andy Dalton, right, 244 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: you just never know when you're gonna get that opportunity, 245 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: and you better be ready, I'll tell you what. It 246 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: also kind of put a little kebosh on the touchdown 247 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: race between Brady and Drew Brees because they were really 248 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: going at it. You know. It was something that really 249 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: no one talked about, how he was kind of evolving 250 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: as the season went on, and they're going back and 251 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: forth with each other, or they were. I think they 252 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: are actually tied right now in touchdowns. Brady may have 253 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: gotten them by one because he finished the game, but 254 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: that kind of I think that may damage the race 255 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. That that was a nice little side, 256 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: a little side hustle that I was looking at. I 257 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: thought it was very interesting, too old dude steal bawling 258 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: and still putting on. If Drew Brees comes back anytime 259 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: soon from multiple fractured ribs on both sides of his 260 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: chest and it collapsed. Lung good love making tom Brady's 261 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: taking a pretty good lead in that race right there. 262 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: All right, Mickey, you alluded to Andy Dalton. I guess 263 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: we need to figure out who's gonna be starting at 264 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: quarterback for the Cowboys this week against the Minnesota Via Kings. 265 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: And I've got some very positive news to pass along 266 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 1: for Cowboys fans coming up later here on mix shots 267 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: as we start another week.

That Washington football 304 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: team which lost on a last second field goal in 305 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: Detroit yesterday, fifty nine yarder by Matt Prater. And they're 306 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 1: not feeling so good about Chase Young about now in 307 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: Washington after the penalty audium that put the Lions in 308 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: position for that field goal. But they're two and seven 309 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys are two and seven right now, but 310 00:19:54,440 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 1: that is about to change. Mickey Spagnola, Well, and one 311 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: of the things I was getting ready to say before 312 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: we went to break, I wanted to point out, so 313 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: we were talking about Seattle in the situation they got in. 314 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: You look back at that Cowboy game against them, they'll 315 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 1: rue the day that they lost that game on the road, 316 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: knowing that with just less than four minutes to go, 317 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: they had a thirty one thirty lead in that game. 318 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: And for some reason I decided to go back last 319 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: week to look at what happened in that game. Remember 320 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys put up five hundred and twenty two total 321 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: yards in that game, and that was the first time 322 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: they were without their top three offensive lineman Tyrann Smith, 323 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: Leale Collins, and Cam Irving, along with two of their 324 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: top three cornerbacks. That's Chitabeoose was out, Anthony Brown was all. 325 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: And remember these things in that game, and this is 326 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: why you can't us drop a game like that when 327 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: you should win. You remember Tony Poller's fumble on the 328 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 1: kickoff that he muffed recorded at the one yard line, 329 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: ended up in a two point safety. Zerline missed an 330 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: extra point and had one blocked. There's four points there. 331 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: That's a huge difference. And then the first play of 332 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: the second half on a blitz, the Cowboys missed a 333 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: block sack fumble on Prescott. Seattle recovers at the Cowboys 334 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: five and they scored a touchdown. They gave them eleven 335 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: points in that game, eleven and even if they had not, 336 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: even if they'd done that with the touchdown and not 337 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: giving them those four points. Do you remember they drove 338 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: down to the Seattle twenty two with twenty six seconds 339 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: left to go, and it had those four points, not 340 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: been part of that game, they would have had a 341 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: chance to kick a field goal and send that game 342 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: into overtime. So when you are away a game like that, 343 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: those things come back to haunt you and that team 344 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: could be beat because I'll tell you what, the last 345 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 1: few times I've watched Seattle play boy, they're lost. They're 346 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: absolutely lost. Their defense is terrible, and I think that's 347 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: leading to Russell Wilson taking us undue chances to try 348 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: to score points and zing the ball around. Boy, they're 349 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: a mess right now. Hey, Mickey Nicky, did you mention 350 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: the interception at the end of the first half too, Yes, yes, 351 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: I mean the Cowboys are trailing sixteen to fifteen, and 352 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: that interception came with thirty six seconds left in the 353 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: first half, and we talk about you're talking about Russell 354 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: Wilson slinging the ball around. I mean, there are certain 355 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: times in a game where you gotta even, Okay, you're 356 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: sixteen fifteen, you're down by a point, you're thirty six 357 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 1: seconds left in the in the half. Okay, there's certain 358 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 1: times you might want to just go ahead and take 359 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: it to the house. If you're you're fine, sixteen fifteen, 360 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: Because sometimes some bad things can happen when you're backed 361 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,959 Speaker 1: up in your own end of Bill. So there's not 362 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 1: only yeah, that interception, which, by the way, they could 363 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: have stopped him and held him to a field goal. 364 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 1: They got a touchdown on that change of possessions. And 365 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 1: so I mean with that pick and then the turnover 366 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: to start the third quarter on the first play, I mean, 367 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,479 Speaker 1: that's a fourteen point swing right there. Yeah, you're exactly 368 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: the odds of that happening. And then throw in the 369 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 1: other four points. That's eighteen points they basically gifted Seattle 370 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: in a game they ended up losing thirty one. Yeah, 371 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,439 Speaker 1: you talked about the odds of things happening, Bill. If 372 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: I would call the dB that got the interception was Griffin, 373 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,479 Speaker 1: and we had been teasing about how he was getting 374 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: toasted the year before by all of our live receivers. 375 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: That was his first interception, I think they said, in 376 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: like a year and a half. So the odds of 377 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,880 Speaker 1: it happened, you don't think of very good. But then 378 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: here we go, this guy finally gets an interception after 379 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: being torched by several teams for several games. Each time 380 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 1: you look at the NFC East and you look at 381 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: the failure of our teams. They're not losing by much. 382 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: It's always the same story with the Cowboys. That was 383 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: a pivotal point in the game. What things just kind 384 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: of get out of control. You talk about Chase Young, 385 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: that's just the bone hit player. Successful teams don't make 386 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 1: those kinds of mistakes. Well coached teams, players that have 387 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: the heads up they are not that they don't private 388 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: themselves to those kind of mistakes. The Cowboys that have 389 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: been doing it all year long, there's always something there 390 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: to where you you know, Jaylen Smith, I've been talking 391 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: about just certain things good teams don't do. The NFC 392 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: East is full of them, of players that make those 393 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: mistakes cost them wins. Being one of them just continues 394 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: to put the pressure on himself by making bad mistakes. 395 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: Now he feels like he has nowhere to go. But 396 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: our teams still end up fighting through all of that 397 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: and making a game of it between other divisional division 398 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, other conference rivals sometimes. So when you see 399 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: these games and you see the NFC East, we talk 400 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: about the futility, what you see is just one play here, 401 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 1: one bone head play there. You're looking at a whole 402 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 1: different record for the NFC e's and and that's my 403 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: good news, man, Mickey, I know you know where I 404 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,239 Speaker 1: was going. No, you're not gonna say a bit now. 405 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 1: That's that's my good news. Is you're looking. If you look, 406 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: let me tell you. If you're at the rest of 407 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: the NFC eas with seven games to go, here, I'm 408 00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: telling you the Cowboys not only have a girl eight chance, 409 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: you can make the case that they are. They are 410 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: in the driver's seat to win the NFC East. I 411 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:12,440 Speaker 1: am ashamed to say that. I believe you, Billy. I'm 412 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: ashamed to say I am on your side. They are. 413 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: The Cowboys are in the driver's seat to win the 414 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: NFC East. If you just look at the r first place, right, 415 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: they could be the Cowboys by two weeks from tonight. 416 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: They are liable to be in first place in the 417 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: NFC East. All right, Oh god, Now, obviously, obviously, obviously 418 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have to take care of their own business 419 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: and maybe learn from some of those mistakes they've made 420 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: that Mickey talks about in the Seattle game, you talk 421 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: about in the Pittsburgh game last week. They gotta win 422 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 1: at Minnesota, which is Minnesota's record is what three and 423 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: five right now, they're playing tonight, they could be three 424 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: and six by the end of the night. They're playing 425 00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: at Chicago tonight, and then Washington comes in here two 426 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: and seventeen. Okay, let's just say the Cowboys win those 427 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: two games, and so the Cowboys would then be four 428 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 1: and seven. What does Philly have. They play at Cleveland, 429 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: which has six wins, they're six and three, and then 430 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: they come home and they play I believe Seattle, yep, Seattle. 431 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a Monday night game against Seattle. So 432 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: by Monday night two weeks from those could easily be 433 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: two losses for the Eagles. Cowboys would be in first place. 434 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: Giants are off this week. They're a game ahead of 435 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: the cowboyor a half game ahead of the Cowboys right 436 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: now at three and seven. They're off this week, then 437 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: they're at Cincinnati. That's a toss up game. Giants could 438 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: easily lose that games pretty good. Yeah, but let's even 439 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,199 Speaker 1: said they Let's even said they win that game, and 440 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys and Giants then would be tied for first 441 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: place at four and seven at the end of Thanksgiving weekend. 442 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: I mean literally, I think if the Cowboys go five. Okay, 443 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys record. The Cowboys schedule the rest of the way, 444 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: as we all know, they only got one team on 445 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: their schedule that has a winning record lot right now, 446 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens. And did you see that run defense 447 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: last night against New England? Okay, I didn't see it. No, 448 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 1: I didn't see it, not at all. Yeah, exactly, there 449 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: was no run defense last night, and against a team 450 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: that you gotta be geared up to stop the run. 451 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: Cam Newton hadn't threatened anybody this year, and it's in 452 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: a driving rain storm. So anyway, if the Cowboys go 453 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: five and two the rest of the way, they might 454 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: win this division going away the way going exacting at 455 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: seven and nine, that could be winning going away. Literally, 456 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: they can win it by going five and two the 457 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: rest of the way because the Eagles, I don't see 458 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: them going any better than three and four the rest 459 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: of the way. You know that might with anyone hear 460 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: the Eagle go ahead, give me the rest of hear 461 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: the Eagle schedule? Yeah, it's pretty high Eagles. The Eagles 462 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: are at Cleveland, a six win team, Seattle a six 463 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: win team right now at green Bay, which is seven 464 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: and two New Orleans seven and two. Now New Orleans 465 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: just lost Drew Brees and then at Arizona six and three, 466 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: and then they closed with Dallas and Washington. So the 467 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: next five opponents for Philadelphia all have six or seven wins. 468 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: You know what, maybe that's why Carson Wentz kind of 469 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: got into my dream last night. I woke up and say, 470 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: why was I dealing with Carson Wentz? What'd you eat before? Oh? 471 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: And by the way, before we get away from this, 472 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: it's on my mind. Did you see Jalen Ramsey try 473 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: to pull that same move in the game yesterday when 474 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: I think it was DK Metcalf beat him. It was 475 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: a it was a deep ball and they were fighting physically, 476 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden when when he kind of 477 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: got an elbow from from Metcalf, he kind of fell 478 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: off and he threw his hands up in the air. Well, 479 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: guess what this time? No call? How about that? He 480 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: dried the pull the same thing, all right? And I 481 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: saw others. I saw other dbs doing that spags. That's 482 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: a thing. Now, he wasn't the only one I saw 483 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: do that yesterday. Everyone's doing it now. They're carrying it 484 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: out like soccer players are NBA players, and I have 485 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: to put this note out there. I know we have 486 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: to go to a break soon. Jeff Heath, Jeff Heath, 487 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: Jeff Jeff Heath pulled Jenobli on the holding call, right, 488 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: he sold it big time. So what two plays will go? 489 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: He sold it, which stopped the scram before touchdown, and 490 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: I think the next play he ends up getting the 491 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: interception to save the touchdown, to defend it the touchdown, 492 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: and then it's Hattime. I'm pretty sure that's how that 493 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: sequence went. And it was just kind of good to 494 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: see him making some plays. Everyone was saying we shouldn't 495 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: have got rid of them. I still disagree. And before 496 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: we go to break, here's the here's the Giant schedule 497 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: the rest of the way.

Yeah, Mike McCarthy press ofference at four forty five. 557 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: It'll be on Dallas Cowboys dot com. I haven't seen 558 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: any any activity from players so far, so I'm not 559 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 1: sure if they're back in or you know what. Since 560 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,399 Speaker 1: he's at four forty five, they've got to be having 561 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: some sort of meeting. I don't know if it's gonna 562 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 1: be virtual, because remember they kind of finished last week 563 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 1: in intensive COVID nineteen protocol, and I would think we'll 564 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: find out a couple of things. Number one is Andy 565 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: Dalton cleared his two protocols because remember as we left off, 566 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: he was probably still in concussion protocol and then COVID 567 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 1: nineteen protocol. We'll find out the status of Tyrone Crawford, 568 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 1: and then maybe we find out what's up with Chitube 569 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 1: Awuzier because remember his twenty one days to get off 570 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: of IR ended last week. They did pull him off, 571 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: but then he didn't play in the game, so we'll 572 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 1: see what sort of physical where his physical status is 573 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: heading towards the Minnesota game, who which, by the way, 574 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: plays the Monday night game, So we'll get a good 575 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: look at those Vikings that have won their last two 576 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: games in a row, by the way, scoring twenty eight 577 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: and thirty four points in those wins. With the running 578 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: game with a we'll find out if they fixed this 579 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: rush defense with Delvin Cook coming up. So but anyway, 580 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 1: Bill Day Tuesday. Normally, when you come off a bye, 581 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: even though you had all that time off, Tuesday's usually 582 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: a day off and then you get back into practice 583 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 1: on your normal schedule Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. So basically the 584 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: last time the Cowboys were on the practice field was 585 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: win so it had been the Friday Saturday before the 586 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 1: last Saturday before Saturday Pittsburgh game, Saturday before the Pittsburgh game. 587 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 1: That's right, So it's been a while. Yea, it will 588 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 1: be yes, So it will be seven, eight, nine, ten 589 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: days in between, assuming they can get on the practice 590 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,720 Speaker 1: field on Wednesday that they get out of this intense 591 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: COVID protocol, it will be ten days in between practices 592 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: for this team. The better they better store it up 593 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 1: because once they get into the Minnesota game, they're gonna 594 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 1: end up playing three games in eleven days, so there 595 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: won't be a lot of practicing going on after that 596 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: Minnesota game. Here we go. This is that time of year. 597 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 1: We can make a break our season. Ye can? I 598 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: love it? Okay, So we expect to get an update 599 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: on Andy Dalton at four forty five this afternoon from 600 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: the coach and of course, at last report he was 601 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: still in COVID and concussion protocol and when asked last 602 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: week who his starter would be Dalton or Garrett Gilbert, 603 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy said that it would be Dalton if he 604 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,359 Speaker 1: is healthy, So we will anticipate that his answer has 605 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 1: not changed on that. What do you think of this 606 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,760 Speaker 1: debate out there that they should go with Gilbert instead 607 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 1: of Dalton. Well, it seems like everybody's in lockstep on 608 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: Dalton because Jerry Jones answered the question the exact same way, 609 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: and so did Stephen Jones. Uh so uh they seem so. 610 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,760 Speaker 1: I mean the debate amongst the members of the media 611 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: and fans not just letting you know what the people 612 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: that important people in the decision have had to say. Hey, 613 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: I've never known a reporter that hates all other reporters 614 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: only spags. He gives them no credibility whatsoever. Mix Shots 615 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 1: is never about the team and the players. It's always 616 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 1: about how these idiots are covering the cowboys. I like it. 617 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: I like it, and it's not love it to death, buddy. 618 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: And I don't think you've seen any reporters saying that 619 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: they should start Gilbert. It's talk radio in the fall. Oh, 620 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: I don't know about that. Who you got, Bill got Bill? Oh? 621 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: I've had a had a couple of debates here with 622 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: with a few reporters about it, and they think that 623 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 1: to go with Gilbert, but don't use the word like 624 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: the ones. It's almost like the ones that want to 625 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: go for Gilbert, they're kind of considering writing off the season. Yeah, 626 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: you know those that want to go with Gilbert, we're 627 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 1: also the ones that want a top five pick. You're right, Glad, 628 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,360 Speaker 1: And you know, man, people start talking about this tanking 629 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: and all of that. That is to me, that's the 630 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: ultimate sports sin. I really believe that. I think it's 631 00:39:55,760 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: just the loophole that has found in the system itself, 632 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 1: and to use it in that manner. It affects everything. 633 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it affects a person's status as far as 634 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,399 Speaker 1: let's say you've got to play on your squad. He's 635 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: good enough to say, have Hall of Fame aspirations. All 636 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're shutting a season down and that's 637 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 1: affecting his post career popularity or whether whever you want 638 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 1: to call it. You could be talking about a player 639 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 1: who's trying to make make a headweight and go to 640 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: another team, you know, build his numbers up so it 641 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: can look good in the off season, and you're taking 642 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 1: the season and now I can't get my numbers out 643 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: there as a wide receiver or a linebacker or even 644 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,280 Speaker 1: the running back. Just the small things that go along 645 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 1: with taking a season. I I just it's it's Sully's 646 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 1: the whole system, and I never did like it, and 647 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: I hate when people start talking about it because now 648 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: the whole season is compromised, not just yours, the whole 649 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: NFL seasons compromise. So I agree, I agree. So ever 650 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: ever said in nineteen eighty eight, Tom didn't come to 651 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 1: you and say, hey, Cubby, just back off a little 652 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 1: bit because we're gonna get the first pick of the 653 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: draft and we're gonna get Troy eighth. Hey, let me 654 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: say this. In nineteen eighty eight, he didn't have to 655 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 1: tell everything because I was playing like crap, just like 656 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,879 Speaker 1: the rest of the team. So yeah, he he didn't 657 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 1: have to say anything. We all, we all played like 658 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: crap in herschell. Quit try anything on VP of the league. 659 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 1: Just back off, right right, back off, you know the 660 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 1: other thing on you know, and take nothing away from 661 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 1: Gary Gilbert. He did a terrific job against Pittsburgh, But 662 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: the bar was set so low as far as the 663 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: quarterback with for the Cowboys going into that game, after 664 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,720 Speaker 1: what we had seen the previous week and playing against 665 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers, the bunted, unbeaten Pittsburgh Steelers coming in here. 666 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: If he completed a couple of passes, it was going 667 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: to be a victory. And then when he completed a 668 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: touchdown pass. But when you go back and look at 669 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: his game, and let's say Andy Dalton had the same 670 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 1: game that Garrett Gilbert had, people would be sitting there 671 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: looking at that, going, well, we got to find a 672 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: better backup quarterbacks. We can't have a quarterback he throws 673 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 1: and then a section in the red zone. You know, 674 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: I went back and looked at on the first drive 675 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: of the game, Amari Cooper's lined up in the slot 676 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 1: and he makes a great move. And I don't know 677 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 1: enough about playing quarterback. It's so easy to do it 678 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: from two hundred feet up in the air. I don't 679 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: you know, Gilbert, he's facing the sun field. He may 680 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: not his vision might have been blocked by a defensive linement, whatever, 681 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 1: but it didn't look like he looked Cooper's way At 682 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 1: first pre snap, it looked like this is the matchup 683 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: you want. You got Cooper in the slot and he 684 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,479 Speaker 1: made a great move as he is so wont to do, 685 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: and he's wide open, and safety went the other way. 686 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 1: I mean it was right there for him. Well, they 687 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,439 Speaker 1: he checked down and went underneath whatever. But a play 688 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 1: like that, you know, if it's dark, he's going to 689 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 1: Cooper there. I guarantee you. You know, Dalton might have 690 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: to I don't know. Yeah, yeah, but a more experienced quarterback. 691 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: I mean, and again, given Gilbert credit, he just does 692 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: not have the experience. But I do think if Dalton 693 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 1: played the same game, we'd be saying and I he 694 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,399 Speaker 1: wasn't there very good, you know, But with Gilbert playing 695 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 1: the game, oh wow, we found something here. You know. 696 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: At this point, you're talking about fans and puntents as well. 697 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 1: I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt 698 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,280 Speaker 1: and say that they want for the Cowboys so much 699 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: that the frustration kind of sets in and then we 700 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 1: just say, yes, just blow it all up. I'm so frustrated. 701 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 1: I'm pulling for these guys. I got my emotions behind it, 702 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: you know, and they just give up. And then you've 703 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 1: got the other side that's saying, you know, like me 704 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 1: and Bill, we're saying, hey man, we still got a chance. 705 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 1: We can win this going the way. Professional optimists, that's 706 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: what we are. But you know, like you said, those 707 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 1: guys that want Guilbert to stay in they don't want 708 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 1: to see any more Andy Dolphin because they don't want 709 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 1: to see us trying to salvage this season. And everyone's 710 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: always looking forward to the draft. Who the hell do 711 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 1: you want? I mean, yeah, we can get sunshine. We 712 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 1: can get sunshine. We're gonna know what the heck's gonna 713 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: happen with Dad. We can get sunshine. But I'm not 714 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:42,479 Speaker 1: gonna force an issue that's not there yet. And we're 715 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: more than mathematically still in it, which is a shame 716 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 1: to say. Not my fault, not Bill's fault, but we 717 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: are more than still mathematically in the race for the 718 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 1: NFC eason. That's just a shame that it is. But 719 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: don't give up now. And you can find a player 720 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: with the seventeenth pick just as easily as you can 721 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,240 Speaker 1: find a player with a seventh pick in the draft. Boy, 722 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 1: And we played against some low round draft picks that 723 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 1: I'm coming here and kick the butts a whole group 724 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 1: of all. Like I said last year, you don't need 725 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 1: a team for the Superstars to beat a team for 726 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 1: the Superstars. You just need some damn good coaching and 727 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: a good team unit. So we're all in agreement, right, 728 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: We got it. Figured out. We got out, all right. 729 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: I'm glad to hear that. Get Andy Dalton out there, 730 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm glad. I'm ready to go. That's why you made 731 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: that deal, That's why you brought him here. And I'll 732 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: let him go do what he needs to do, and 733 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 1: for God's sake, protect the guy well. And I mean, seriously, 734 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 1: all you gotta do is look at the resumes. I 735 00:45:56,040 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: mean you no, no, unless the coach less there's some 736 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:04,359 Speaker 1: physical ailment that we don't know about. With the more 737 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 1: experienced quarterback. I mean, you're talking about a quarterback who 738 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: is a three time Pro bowler, who was I mean, 739 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 1: going back to college, was the winning is quarterback in 740 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 1: TCU history. Let not go back, No, Garrett Gilbert wins. 741 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 1: If we go to high school, Garrett Gilbert wins, he 742 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: won two state championships. Falton laws. Yes, we know, yes, 743 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: we know, all right, but that's the last thing Garrett 744 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: Gilbert did. That's the problem, all right, that doesn't for 745 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: mixed shots. Time to go. Chris Beam says, it's time 746 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 1: to go, and we will have more information for you 747 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: and Mike McCarthy meets with the media at four forty 748 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:50,880 Speaker 1: five this afternoon.
