18
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: We start?

19
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 2: There are a lot of different things to break down.

20
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 2: We could talk about, Yeah, we could talk about that,

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: talk about Jayalen Carter, talk about a couple couple dropped opportunities,

22
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: a couple of things that slipped right through your fingertips

23
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 2: within spitting distance. If you yeah, all all the metaphors,

24
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 2: all the puns, all the puns. Cowboys fall had a

25
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 2: shot to beat the reigning Super Bowl champions on the

26
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 2: road in Week one. It hurts the fact that they

27
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 2: had a shot and they very easily could have won

28
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: that game with as well as they played.

29
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 5: That shot, And it hurts.

30
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 2: Man. This is just we're on a roll here. No,

31
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: but you had an opportunity late and ultimately just couldn't

32
00:01:58,160 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: get it done.

33
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 3: Listen, you guys know everything about talking cowboys. We don't

34
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 3: do moral victories, no going to do moral victories. But

35
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 3: I can tell you what last night last night, when

36
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: there is no draw, right, win or lose? Right, obviously

37
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 3: you lost. You were going to find out where your

38
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 3: team was. You had you had no idea what your

39
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 3: team was. You literally had no idea that most of

40
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: the guys that were playing last night had not touched

41
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 3: the field in the in the preseason. That's just what

42
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 3: it is. You know what you have now in Cowboys Nation. Again,

43
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 3: I'm going to say there are no moral victories, so

44
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,119
Speaker 3: don't don't at me. However, you should be highly encouraged.

45
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 3: Absolutely you should be highly encouraged as to what you

46
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 3: have for what's transpired with this organization over the past

47
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 3: week in terms of losing your best defensive player and

48
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 3: seeing exactly what your defense looks like now, seeing exactly

49
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 3: what your coverage looks like with Trayvon Diggs coming off

50
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 3: of injury, and you still have other guys that have

51
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 3: to come off the injury report to make contributions, to

52
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,519
Speaker 3: see what your offense looks like. We're Brian's Schoenheimer and

53
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 3: really everybody not even really being utilized last night.

54
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 1: You should be encouraged by the running game.

55
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 3: You had questions and concerns about who was going to

56
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: be able to tote the rock and can you be

57
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 3: effective on the ground with the ground game. You should

58
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 3: be encouraged by your offensive line. How are these guys

59
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 3: going to be able to be able to run block?

60
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 3: Can these guys protect? Can they keep Daka? Is Dak's

61
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 3: hamstring healthy? Can he run? Can he get out the pocket?

62
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 3: All these things. There's a lot of questions that I

63
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 3: don't want to say fully got answered, but you have

64
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 3: a pretty good idea as to where you're at right now.

65
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 3: And again, you just played the Super Bowl champs. Who

66
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 3: returned almost everybody, almost seventeen out of twenty two starters.

67
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 5: Impressive, they returned.

68
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 3: The Super Bowl champions returned seventeen out of twenty two starters.

69
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: And you just went total told with them, and you

70
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 3: should have won. You should have won. You had your opportunities,

71
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 3: absolutely right. So again, no moral victories, but I am encouraged. Right,

72
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 3: I have predicted that they were going to lose twenty

73
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: seven to twenty one, I think, right, just guys like eh,

74
00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 3: I just don't know who they are.

75
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna be able to get

76
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: over to edge. Right.

77
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 3: This was this was a good matchup. And I've gotten

78
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 3: through the first half of film so far. A lot

79
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 3: of things clean up, but all these things that that

80
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 3: you see on film are correctable.

81
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: But again we'll get into the details. I'm highly encouraged.

82
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 6: Is it a lot of things that you think would

83
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 6: have benefited from a few snaps in the preseason.

84
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 3: Yes, very much, so very much. I said it last

85
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 3: night on a post game show.

86
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 2: I was about to say, did you listen to post

87
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 2: game last night?

88
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 5: Yeah?

89
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 6: And then that's kind of why I'm leading into that,

90
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 6: because those are a lot of things and a lot

91
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 6: of fans.

92
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 5: We're kind of saying this too.

93
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 6: You know, it's if you don't have Dak playing in

94
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 6: the preseason at all, getting snaps, getting familiar. That was

95
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 6: the first time we had seen the offensive line play

96
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 6: together as one on the field Thursday Night Football Game one.

97
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 6: That's a crazy that's a tall order if you will,

98
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 6: to serve up for Opening Day. But the Cowboys went

99
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 6: down the field on two drives in a row and

100
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 6: score touchdowns. You have to love that. You have to

101
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 6: love what Brian Schottenheimer came in with. Another thing that

102
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 6: you said on the pregame show was that your coordinators

103
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 6: were prepared.

104
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 5: They got your guys prepared.

105
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 6: I loved that because it was clear, it was obvious.

106
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 6: I don't know that I necessarily loved Matt Eberflus's game

107
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 6: plan when you look at the snaps of like a

108
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 6: Maris lea foul, why he wasn't on the field, why

109
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 6: he wasn't spying Jalen Hurts, Especially after the first few

110
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 6: drives where they went down and scored touchdowns.

111
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 5: Back to back to back. It's tough, but I think

112
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 5: there's a lot to build on.

113
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what.

114
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 4: And speaking to eber Flus really quickly before I get

115
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 4: to some of my key takeaways, because a lot a

116
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 4: lot here, but I'll give as some mestion. But Eberflus,

117
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 4: we talk about culture change. Mazzie Smith was a healthy scratch.

118
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 4: You don't see that under Michae McCarthy. Mich McCarthy is

119
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 4: still in this building as head coach. Mazzie Smith is

120
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 4: not a healthy scratch at any point ever. So I

121
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 4: would like to say that Schottenheimer and eber Flus are

122
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 4: keeping to what they said. They said they want to

123
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 4: see more consistency from Mozzie Smith. Those were not words

124
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 4: at all. Compete every day everything, So so kudos to

125
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 4: them for that. Now, as far as some of the

126
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 4: takeaways from those who did play, love what Isaiah's saying,

127
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 4: love with Josh is saying, and I completely agree. Again,

128
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 4: we will say this, and we will have to say

129
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 4: this a million other times because we already know how

130
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 4: fans are.

131
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: There are no moral victories, zero whatever.

132
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 4: Just as if the Cowboys had won, there would have

133
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 4: been negatives to discuss as far as improvements. Yeah, okay,

134
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 4: just like the Cowboys lost this game, there are positives

135
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 4: to discuss along with the negatives. Yep, that's called football talk. Okay,

136
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 4: there are a lot of positives. Schottenheimer came out his

137
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 4: script was magnificent on that first drive. But then you're

138
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 4: thinking to yourself, Okay, script looks magnificent. First twelve to

139
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 4: fifteen plays cool. Second drive mostly on scripted, still look magnificent.

140
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 4: Oh mind, what are we doing?

141
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 5: Here?

142
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 4: Are a lot there's a lot of pre snap motion

143
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 4: here in that snap motion there, these are a lot

144
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 4: of condensed offensive sets to make things that much more

145
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 4: challenging on the defense for the Eagles. And then you

146
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 4: look at Dak. Granted no preseason, but saw stat yesterday

147
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 4: finished the game with ninety percent catchuple throws ninety percent.

148
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 4: Dak was pristine out there the run game. To Isaiah's point,

149
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 4: we had no idea what this run game would look like,

150
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 4: or this new look offensive line would look like. Man,

151
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 4: I get it. Jay Len Carter got removed, but guess what.

152
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 4: They still have bodies out there like Jordan Davis for example.

153
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 4: Shouts out to Javonte Williams. He was making the best

154
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 4: of every opportunity given to him. In conjunction with the

155
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 4: fact that man, this offensive line was just moving bodies

156
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: they were moving.

157
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: Bodies forward, sideways.

158
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 4: It was a lot of steering going on out there.

159
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 4: So run game looks good. Passing game looked great. Ceedee

160
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 4: Lamb was virtually unstoppable in the first half. You know,

161
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 4: he was approaching one hundred yard game at the half. Okay,

162
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 4: let's see what else I got here. Defense iber Flus

163
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 4: struggled with his initial game plan. Okay, first half did

164
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 4: not look great in the run defense, and of course

165
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 4: everyone include in us, I disagree, didn't look great because

166
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 4: of Jalen Hurts.

167
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 3: Yes, it wasn't because sa Quon was going off doing Saquon.

168
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 2: They bottled him up.

169
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 4: Yes, it was because Jalen Hurts his mobility. But if

170
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 4: you go back and look at the film, as we

171
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 4: do on Talking Cowboy, what you would notice is that

172
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 4: a lot of those runs from Jalen Hurts, none of

173
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 4: them were designed.

174
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: They were broken.

175
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 3: Plays because the covering bridge absolutely down Chef Kiss.

176
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 4: Okay, so at that point, now another positive halftime adjustments.

177
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 4: We saw halftime adjustments from the defense, absolutely.

178
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 5: Oh Man.

179
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 4: One hundred and twenty plus yards on the ground for

180
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 4: the Eagles in the first half, roughly thirty on the

181
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 4: ground in the second half. Three were ties in the

182
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 4: first half, zero offensive touchdowns allowed in the second half.

183
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 4: A lot of positives be taken to be taken away

184
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 4: from here. Solomon Thomas, yes, sir played well, Okay Clark,

185
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: Kenny Clark, sir Osa in the second half, three.

186
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 2: Defensive tackles that did what he's going on?

187
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 3: I did and shout out because I was shout out

188
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 3: to Marshawn.

189
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: Marshawant was not.

190
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 3: Necessarily over the hill for the pass rush, but in

191
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 3: terms of his had two sects physicality. The way that

192
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 3: Marshawn o Sa, Solomon and Kenny Clark came off the

193
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 3: ball that it was so encouraging when watching on film,

194
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 3: like they were firing off the ball. Solomon Thomas is

195
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 3: a madman coming off the snap like relent and he

196
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 3: doesn't just look the part.

197
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 2: You know, it's the second moves too. It was the

198
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 2: fact that he would get locked up on one side

199
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 2: and yeah, yeah, I mean there were so many different

200
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 2: options on the film. When you go back and look

201
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: at it, it's.

202
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: A fun one. It really was.

203
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 2: In the top of that adds to very exciting.

204
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 4: How many times did we see in the past, just

205
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 4: recent seasons, the Cowboys with go to go defense just

206
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 4: basically find ways to partner it see or get bullied

207
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 4: and just pushed into no not not last night against

208
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 4: the arguably the best offensive line in the game.

209
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: It took. For example, one off Jalen Hurts rushing touchdowns

210
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: was because it was go to go stuffed, stuffed and

211
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 1: then he.

212
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 3: Goes to it wasn't easy, right, he goes to roll out,

213
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 3: He's like, Oh, I don't have anyone to pass too?

214
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 4: Why because the coverage is Christine. He rolls out bootlegs

215
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 4: and there you go. So lots of positive takeaways these negatives.

216
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 6: One thing that you just brought up marsh On kneel

217
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 6: and a guy that you've been critical of since for

218
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 6: him to show out like you did yesterday was impressive.

219
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 5: But what did you see? What was different from camp

220
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 5: from yesterday?

221
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: Violence?

222
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 3: You don't you don't get that violence, and you get

223
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 3: that violence in camp. You just don't know. You don't,

224
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 3: you don't don't. You're not tackling it. Even when you

225
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 3: are thudding up, you're still going three quarters. Let's call

226
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 3: it what it is right in training camp and at

227
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 3: the line position because you what are your coach is.

228
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 1: Saying stay up, Stay up, Stay up.

229
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 3: You can't go one hundred percent when you're worried about falling,

230
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 3: you know, not trying not to fall on the ground.

231
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 3: So that's just be really be real, be honest about it.

232
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: The way that he was firing out the ball, even

233
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 3: though I would like to see a I would like

234
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 3: for him to get a bag of pass rushers when

235
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 3: he even when he two gaps, he's powerful and he

236
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 3: pushed Lane Johnson back numerous times into the into the

237
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 3: lap of Jalen Hurts. So those things were very encouraging.

238
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 3: Like I said, there's a lot to go through. But you,

239
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 3: for fans understand you. You won the number of first downs,

240
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 3: you one third down, you one total total yards, you

241
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 3: one average game per play.

242
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: You.

243
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 2: Let me let me add you won the coaching Yeah,

244
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 2: let me let me add to this a little bit.

245
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 2: If you would have told me on Wednesday going into

246
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 2: Thursday that Sakuon Barkley is held to three point three

247
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 2: yards per case.

248
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: Are cool?

249
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 2: DeVante Smith finishes with three grabs for sixteen yards, no touchdowns.

250
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 2: Longest was seven yards.

251
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: I know a J.

252
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 2: Brown one reception.

253
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 1: Well, he was in the building. He was there.

254
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 2: He was in the building.

255
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 1: At the end of the game.

256
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, one reception for eight yards at the end of

257
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 2: the game will at the end of the game. If

258
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 2: you would have told me all three of those things

259
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 2: were true, I don't care what anybody else does. I

260
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 2: think Dallas wins the game. And that's part of why

261
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 2: this one does hurt the way that it does. And

262
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 2: I say hurt with the little emphasis because you talked

263
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 2: about third down. That was the problem. That was the

264
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: problem eight of thirteen and most of those thirteen that

265
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 2: didn't end up on the positive side for Philly was

266
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: late and that was part of the adjustment. In the

267
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 2: forty five seconds that I saw my wife this morning,

268
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 2: we talked to football because that was really all we

269
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 2: had when we get home at two am and then

270
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 2: turn around and get up here at eight am. Yeah,

271
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 2: and that's not even as bad as what Patrick's having

272
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: to deal with and Chris beam are having to deal with.

273
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 2: But for the forty five seconds I saw Laurena and

274
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: I said, you know, I think it boils down to

275
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 2: I loved Schottenheimer's game plan. I loved Eberflus's adjustments, and

276
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 2: that's part of the game. Well, the game plan was

277
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 2: there in the first half from the offense, and the

278
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 2: game plan wasn't bad for Ebraflus in the first half.

279
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 2: They did good things or else Saquon Barkley doesn't get

280
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 2: held to three point three yards per carry. But the

281
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 2: adjustments going into the second half from the defensive side

282
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 2: gave the offense every opportunity to win that game in

283
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 2: the third or the fourth quarter, and you didn't take advantage.

284
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 6: To your point, Iberflus's game plan, I actually think in the.

285
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 5: First half was really good.

286
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 6: We're talking about like shutting down AJ Brown, We're talking

287
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 6: about shutting in down DeVante Smith. That's the Barkley for

288
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 6: the entire game. It was Jalen Hurts that hurt you,

289
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,199
Speaker 6: no pun intended. It was those third down situational things.

290
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 6: It was Dante Fowler not have his best game. It

291
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 6: was the linebackers not cleaning up, you know, the second level.

292
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 6: It was the second level all day because Osa dige

293
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 6: Zoo was in the backfield on every It was insane.

294
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 3: And the reason why I pointed, I'm not pointing fingers

295
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 3: at anybody. We're just no, no, we watch film around here, Okay,

296
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 3: so that's what we do. Talking cowboys. I can't speak

297
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 3: to the other shows. You know, we watched, We watched

298
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 3: film and we.

299
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 2: Talked watched it on the way home last night.

300
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: There was a lot of.

301
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 3: Things that you could point out as every coach on

302
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 3: that staff is going to do. They are going to

303
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 3: dissect it for those that are at home, and when

304
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 3: you're a professional athlete in the NFL, the coaches come in,

305
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 3: they watched the film first. They literally grade every single play.

306
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 3: They give you a plus or they give you a minus.

307
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 3: When you walk into that meeting room that morning to

308
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 3: go over what just took place, you were handed a

309
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 3: packet of every play that was had for your offensive

310
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 3: or defensive snaps, which your grade for that play, whatever

311
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 3: plays you're on, you're graded okay, and you go through

312
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 3: every single play and you talk what you should have

313
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 3: done better, what we could have done better.

314
00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: As a unit. We were talking about.

315
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 3: The d line and how they were firing off and

316
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 3: how they for the most part, had relatively good gap

317
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 3: discipline the linebackers. I know it is going to be

318
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 3: highlighted and Maddiebriflus as his position, so please believe he's

319
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 3: going to correct this. These guys were not playing as

320
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 3: a cohesive unit in the terms of reactionary action, you

321
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying.

322
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: They weren't reacting, they were waiting. There was gaps that

323
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: were there.

324
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 3: That's why Saquan got off and got should have been

325
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 3: negative two, negative three yards a couple times, and he

326
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 3: was able to make it plus four, right, because we

327
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 3: were not shooting the gaps. We weren't seeing ball hit ball.

328
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 3: There's hesitation there, and I think those are things that

329
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 3: you only get by knocking off the rust. Last night

330
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 3: was knocking off the rust. You just wish that it

331
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 3: would have happened somewhere in the preseason or a training camp.

332
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 3: But again, these are all the correctable items, and I

333
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 3: am encouraged by it. Only thing that sticks out to

334
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 3: me had like a sore thumb. The Philadelphia Eagles were

335
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 3: three for three in the red zone. If the Dallas

336
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 3: Cowboys were three for three, Dallas Cowboys win the game.

337
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 3: I'm not pointing saying that was the only thing. Officer's

338
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 3: a gazillion things that took place. The fumble killed it. Yeah,

339
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 3: the fumble killed it. You were in the resid first

340
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 3: of all, should never got to the fumbel because that

341
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 3: was a heck of a blocked up great call by Schottenheimer,

342
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 3: blocked up by the old line and the receivers should

343
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 3: have been a house called, not a house call.

344
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: Who cribs there right, Jade and Blue Jane, Blue cribs

345
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: that understood. I mean it happened one of the few

346
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: coaching It's not.

347
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna.

348
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna. I'm not going to fifty back made

349
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 3: a heck of a player, faulting him for that. But

350
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 3: we're saying because two things can be true at the

351
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 3: same time. It is a hell of a play that's

352
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 3: blocked up wonderfully. Yeah, he executed it wonderfully, and it's

353
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 3: also true that he got dragged down from behind.

354
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 2: But the same thing about Cavante Turpin. Though you can

355
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 2: throw anybody's name in the.

356
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 4: Count on that particular plays Turping, but you can always always,

357
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 4: so that's what I'm saying, But you always look.

358
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: At this player was there.

359
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 3: Blue is faster and in that particular play, all things

360
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 3: being equal, Blue is not getting caught from behind.

361
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 6: To counteract that, though you have Zach Bond in the

362
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 6: backfield that is gone, I mean in the out in

363
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 6: space who cleaned it up?

364
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 5: It was Asle seven. I mean he was clearing up

365
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 5: all day every day. I don't know.

366
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 6: Necessarily that Jayden Blue cribs that the chances are much higher.

367
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: Let's listen, listen, listen.

368
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 3: We can't go down the line and say on this play,

369
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 3: if that's what I'm saying, that player, We're not going

370
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 3: to do that.

371
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: But it was.

372
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 3: A heck of a play by Zach Bond. Heck of

373
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 3: a played on the offense for the Dallas Cowboys. Unfortunately,

374
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 3: you didn't score. You would have liked to score, and

375
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 3: the consequence of that was unfortunately, ball security wasn't there.

376
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: You lost the ball. But we could point to that,

377
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: we can point to the George.

378
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 3: Picktt, you know what I'm saying, which killed you on

379
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 3: your ability to score touchdown on that particular drive. So

380
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,640
Speaker 3: there was a number of things that took place. We're

381
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 3: not pointing fingers. We're just addressing that one stat line.

382
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 3: If you were three for three, you win the game.

383
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 2: Well, turnovers decide games, and that was the only turnover

384
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 2: of the entire game.

385
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 5: And drops and.

386
00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, drops in your quarterback tried to say you even

387
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 4: from that turnover.

388
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,360
Speaker 2: I want to talk a little more offense. Let's talk

389
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 2: about the drops. Let's talk about the significance of Dak

390
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 2: last night, and I thought he had some some ups

391
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,120
Speaker 2: and some downs, but really it was more ups than downs.

392
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,679
Speaker 2: Cowboys lose twenty four to twenty to the Philadelphia Eagles.

393
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 2: Let's talk offense when we come back right after this.

00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: Normally they call it I am smiling.

439
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, there are things to smile about, sure, I'm dead serious.

440
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 2: They call it Black Monday most of the time on

441
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 2: the week after the first game for every NFL team,

442
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 2: because you're either winning the Super Bowl or you're gonna

443
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 2: go oh and seventeen. And I think Dallas is about

444
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 2: as in the middle as possible on that. And of

445
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 2: course it's not a Monday, it's Black Friday, but it's

446
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 2: not Thanksgiving. When you talk about some of the positives

447
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,719
Speaker 2: there for the offense, and we've kind of hit a

448
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 2: couple of these. Dak Prescott finishes twenty one to thirty

449
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 2: four passing, didn't have a passing touchdown, one eighty eight

450
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 2: through the air. One ten of that went to one

451
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 2: guy named Ceedee Lamb. However, even after going seven receptions

452
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 2: for one hundred and ten yards, a lot of people

453
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 2: looking at CD as a microcosm reason, and it's not

454
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 2: the only reason, but it's a big reason that the

455
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 2: Cowboys didn't come up with this. Football is a funny game,

456
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 2: isn't it it is. Football is a funny game. He

457
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 2: had four drops after putting up one hundred and ten

458
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,959
Speaker 2: yards receiving and being the majority of the offensive attack

459
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 2: for the Dallas Cowboys. And at the end of the day,

460
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: you come up just shy on a couple of really

461
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,360
Speaker 2: tough catches and it's still not enough to get it done.

462
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 2: And he said to himself, he said, I gotta catch

463
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: those balls.

464
00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, let's give credit to the maturity of cd Lan. Like,

465
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 3: think about where he came from. He's a captain, he's

466
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 3: not ducking, and he's a captain now right.

467
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 1: I'm the captain now right.

468
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 2: I was hoping to get that reference.

469
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 3: He has taken so many strides towards leadership. Mean, I'm

470
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 3: I you know, I don't have a personal relationship with

471
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,159
Speaker 3: him like that, but I'm proud of his development in

472
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 3: that particular area, coming from where he was even in

473
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 3: the beginning of last year. Go back a year, yep,

474
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 3: where he was throwing tantrums and things like that, And

475
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 3: I think that was kind of his awakening moment to

476
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 3: see himself in the mirror. But like, I don't like that, right,

477
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 3: he made changes to the point where there's nothing negative

478
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 3: that you can say about how he addressed and owned

479
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 3: his drops from yesterday.

480
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 2: He owned that to a t Go watch it on

481
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,360
Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys dot Com. The whole interviews up.

482
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 3: Listen, no excuses, Hey, look no further than me. I

483
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 3: got to catch the ball. All the things like I'm

484
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 3: not looking anywhere else, I'm looking at the man in

485
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 3: the mirror, Michael Jackson style. And that's what I love

486
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 3: about how he handled that yesterday. He said, if you

487
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 3: don't think that I'm gonna come back better than I

488
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 3: was tonight, you guys don't know me.

489
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 1: Love it. Love it.

490
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 3: It happens. Everybody's not under a game every day. He

491
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 3: bought out, he really did. He bought out, But there's

492
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 3: some balls that he wish he would have brought in.

493
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 3: It happens. You can talk about the old line they

494
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 3: bought out for the most part. Yeah, we can point

495
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 3: to the number of blocks that you wish you would

496
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 3: have done better. Yeah, it would have made a difference.

497
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 6: Right, And for any fan that says, you know, like

498
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 6: he's getting up thirty four million dollars, he needs to

499
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 6: make every single one of those catches. There were a

500
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 6: couple of those catches I thought were pretty tough, and

501
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 6: especially if you consider the secondary bearing down on him

502
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 6: in those moments. But for him to outwardly say those

503
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 6: are mine, I need to get those no matter.

504
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 4: Here's the exact quote and quote Ceede Lamb after the

505
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 4: game last night. Man, that was terrible. I can't point

506
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 4: fingers at anybody else. I take full accountability and everything

507
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,120
Speaker 4: else that comes with that. As a player, I've prayed

508
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 4: for moments like that, and for the ball to come

509
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 4: my way to not come up with it, it stings

510
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 4: a little bit. And then he went on to say,

511
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 4: as Isaiah was saying, if you don't think that he's

512
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 4: going to come back basically and cook, then you got

513
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,959
Speaker 4: another thing coming. And I'm standing right there with Isaiah.

514
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 4: I cannot and I've I've said it a million times.

515
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 4: One thing about me is I'm always going to give

516
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 4: roses and kudos to a person who can be accountable. Right,

517
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 4: they're not passing the buck off. He didn't even deflect,

518
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 4: he didn't try to soften the blow. He basically stood

519
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 4: right on the track, right on the tracks, looked at

520
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 4: the train coming and said, okay, this is me.

521
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: Now. Was he the only reason the Cowboys dropped that game.

522
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 9: No.

523
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 4: I mean my prediction was the Cowboys win twenty seven

524
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 4: to twenty four, and damn it, they were right there.

525
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 4: They were right all is in your hand three minutes

526
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 4: to go.

527
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: Got to make the catches, and he knows that.

528
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 4: I think what what highlights the drops is the situation

529
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 4: in which the drops occurred. Absolutely, and the receiver that

530
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 4: dropped the passes. It's kind of a perfect storm of

531
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 4: That's why they pay CD Lamb to me make those

532
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,479
Speaker 4: catches Ceedee Lamb said it himself. He's prayed for times

533
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 4: like that, and in the past he's come up good

534
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 4: for the Cowboys in times like that.

535
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: In the future he will come up good.

536
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 4: For the Cowboys and times like that also true though

537
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 4: those drops were brutal. If he gets just one of

538
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,360
Speaker 4: the final two drops, just one.

539
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 6: That that first or the second to last drop, Jack

540
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 6: the ross deep cross.

541
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: Jack put itam and it tipped up perfect spot.

542
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: Thinks they were both good throws.

543
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 5: They were both.

544
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 1: They were both.

545
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 6: The last one was a little tough, that would have

546
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 6: been yeah, had extension. You had to put it there

547
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 6: with the sat coming over the top and then never under.

548
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 5: But the second to last, Dak put it on it.

549
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 2: I agree with Patrick entirely because the only reason we

550
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 2: have that expectation for Ceedee Lamb is because we've seen

551
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 2: it in the past. We've seen him make those types

552
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,919
Speaker 2: of plays in the past. CD knows he can make

553
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 2: those types of plays. He's paid to make those types

554
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 2: of plays. And at the end of the day, that's

555
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,719
Speaker 2: going to separate Ceedee Lamb from being a great receiver

556
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 2: in this league, of being an elite receiver in this league.

557
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 2: And I do. I've said it before, I've said it

558
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 2: since he was drafted. I think he has everything on

559
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 2: the table to be an elite receiver in this league,

560
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 2: and he has been at different points throughout his career.

561
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 2: He had a chance to become the storyline last night.

562
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,400
Speaker 2: Imagine if he, like you said, grabs one or two

563
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 2: of those four drops that he had on the night.

564
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 2: You're talking about a buck thirty one hundred and forty

565
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 2: yards possibly a touchdown in there. If things continue going

566
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 2: your way and he's the main reason Dallas wins the

567
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 2: game on the road against Philadelphia, that's what's gonna come

568
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 2: with the territory. You ride the highs, you ride the lows.

569
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 2: Just this just happened to be a low for CD Lamb.

570
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: That was evidence of rust.

571
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 3: You think so, yes, because I want you to tell you,

572
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,199
Speaker 3: all right, all right, tell me the last time that

573
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 3: he had to make a catch with that kind of

574
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 3: that kind of coverage and that kind of physicality.

575
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: I get that.

576
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 4: The only reason I'm not making this I'm and reason

577
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 4: I disagree with that is if he hadn't been on

578
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 4: fire the first half.

579
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 1: So if you flip the halfs okay, but think about

580
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 1: the catches, say that, I'm serious.

581
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 3: You think about the catches that he made versus the

582
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 3: catches that he didn't make.

583
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

584
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 3: Right, the last time that he had that level of

585
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 3: physicality was last season. Yeah, this is this is real.

586
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 3: I'm not making an excuse. I'm just saying this is

587
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 3: this is this is real truth. This is the reason

588
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 3: why some teams play some of their guys in the preseason,

589
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 3: whether however long that might be, is because it allows

590
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,399
Speaker 3: for guys to kind of get recalibrated. You're not that

591
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 3: physical in practice. You're not diving for catches in practice

592
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 3: training camp. You're not risk versus reward. Right, did we

593
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 3: see him have to dive? Did he die for anything

594
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 3: in training camp. Now, a you see any of those

595
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 3: receivers outside of the guys who are trying to make

596
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 3: the roster die for anything in training camp.

597
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,199
Speaker 1: No, so what practice would he have at that.

598
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 3: I'm just being real right now, Like, what's the last

599
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 3: time somebody was that physical where you had a guy

600
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 3: that's on your back and the guy's about to hit you,

601
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 3: hit you in your face and you had to focus

602
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 3: on the ball.

603
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 2: Last season, you feel the footsteps coming.

604
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 5: And that's lutting up.

605
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 6: In practice is not the same as life around because

606
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 6: you know that you're safe.

607
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: It's a safe place. So your eyes, it's a safe place.

608
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 3: It's a safe place in practice it is you're not

609
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 3: worried about getting injured by somebody knocking your head off, right.

610
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 3: But now all of a sudden, I'm thrust it into

611
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 3: the game. And again he's paid to do it, he

612
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 3: knows it, own the ship. But again he needed this

613
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,959
Speaker 3: one game to recalibrate himself. Say, we're back playing football

614
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,440
Speaker 3: again and there's a real chance that I can get hit, right,

615
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,919
Speaker 3: So now my eyes, my focus, everything has required to

616
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 3: keep this guy off my back, catch the ball, and

617
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 3: make sure that my eyes are wandering to the cat

618
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 3: that's trying to take my head off. Yeah right, those

619
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 3: are things that I have not had practice on since

620
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 3: last season.

621
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 2: All the separation, sorry, all the separation and the route

622
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 2: running and all of the things that Ceedee Lamb can

623
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,400
Speaker 2: do well in practice. Was fine because when he had

624
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 2: a cushion, it was there. But you go back, you

625
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 2: look at all four drops, like challenge, you go back

626
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 2: and look at all four of them. There was somebody

627
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 2: in the city and this is it was a contestant,

628
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 2: and it wasn't like it wasn't like he didn't come

629
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 2: up with contested catches. He had a couple of those.

630
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 2: But when it came to catches in heavy traffic and

631
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 2: dangerous situations, the dive, the throw over the middle and

632
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 2: the deep crosser, both of those situations were in heavy traffic,

633
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 2: and as a receiver, you know you're about to get

634
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 2: hit even if you catch the ball. Not saying I'm

635
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 2: not saying he's backing down. He had, he had perfect position,

636
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 2: he had an oppertity, but you know as soon as

637
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 2: you grab that ball, you're getting lit up, and you

638
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 2: know what, it is a little bit different.

639
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 3: And on top of that, and again I'm not gonna

640
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 3: go down every dog on the drop, okay or whatever.

641
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: George Pickins forced a pass interference at that I think

642
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 3: the second quarter or some running in my head, George

643
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 3: Pickins makes that catch, even with the flag call, even

644
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 3: with the passage one.

645
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 1: In my head, that's a catch for George Piggins.

646
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 3: He got his hand, he somehow some ways stacked the dB,

647
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 3: got one hand on it, dropped it.

648
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: I know.

649
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 3: I know that George is watching that film sometime today.

650
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 3: It's like, I gotta make that catch.

651
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: But when's the last time.

652
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 5: When's the last time you had to make that catch.

653
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 3: He had to make that physical of a catch, not

654
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 3: in training camp, not in OTA's It hasn't happened. So

655
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not giving an excuse, but what I'm

656
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: saying is be empathetic to the fact that they are

657
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 3: doing a game to get recalibrate. Now, you wish that

658
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 3: they wouldn't have to use a regular season game to

659
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 3: get calibrated, but understand that as a human being, as

660
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 3: a professional athlete, you have to get recalibrated to the

661
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 3: reality and a physicality resport. This is why it's risk

662
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 3: versus reward for guys in the preseason some teams play

663
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 3: their guys, some teams don't.

664
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: Why do some guys play their guys because they want.

665
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 3: That Russ those plays to happen early so that now

666
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 3: when the regular season starts, they're not worried about it. Counterpoint,

667
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 3: Now that I've heard your entire explanation, as I don't

668
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 3: disagree as much right now as I did before you

669
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 3: exprep so credit to you. That being said, I think

670
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 3: we're looking at the angle of rust differently my purview

671
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 3: of rust. If I'm to agree with you that there

672
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 3: was those drops were due to rust, I will agree

673
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 3: that it was in the focused capacity. That much I'll

674
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 3: give to you.

675
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 4: But when I hear ceedee lamb affirm what I was

676
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 4: thinking in my head, what I said out loud in

677
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 4: the press box after the third drop, and then most

678
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 4: certainly the fourth drop, but not necessarily the fourth drop.

679
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 4: I really think that he was he refocused and tried

680
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:12,479
Speaker 4: to get that for it. That's why he laid out

681
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 4: like that, and it just didn't happen for him. But

682
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 4: after the third drop, I said out loud in the

683
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 4: press box, I said something my grandma used to send

684
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 4: my late grandma. I think he's smelling himself. I think

685
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 4: he's smelling himself. It's an old Southern saying that basically

686
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 4: says you're getting too big for your bridges. He had

687
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 4: an outstanding training camp Ceedee Lamb did one of the.

688
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: MVPs of training Best player on the field.

689
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 4: Yep, he's torching these guys seventy six eighty yards. He's

690
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 4: having his way with him. He single back motion out

691
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 4: of the backfield on third down. You know, I mean

692
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 4: like Shody has him cooking. He's cooking, Deck is cooking.

693
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 4: Seedee Lamb is starting to feel unstoppable. He's starting to

694
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 4: feel like, Okay, this might be a two thousand receiving

695
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 4: yard season. And then the focus starts to wane. So

696
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 4: I agree with you the focus Wayne, the question and

697
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 4: the argument, and we'll put it to Cowboys Nation.

698
00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 1: Feel free to engage in the chat with it.

699
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 4: Argument is, do you feel like the focus because we

700
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 4: agree they were focus drops. Do you think it was

701
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 4: due to rust or do you think it was due

702
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,479
Speaker 4: to CD Lamb being too confident that he didn't have

703
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 4: to necessarily like look up example. One of the drops

704
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 4: I think was the second drop. Yes, it's the second drop.

705
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 4: It was going away from the press box. If you

706
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 4: look at that play CD and it kind of goes

707
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 4: to your point a little bit. He started to turn

708
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 4: his head to assess what was coming. Okay, bring the

709
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 4: ball in and then run. You know, that's football all ones.

710
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 3: Last last time he had to worry about getting hit. Oh,

711
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 3: that's why I'm That's why I said, fully disagree. So

712
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 3: when I say the word rust I mean it's just

713
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 3: a calibration. Maybe I should use the word calibration right

714
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 3: wrong with that. He hasn't had to worry about that,

715
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 3: that rusty.

716
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 2: It was just just a timing element.

717
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: And that's it's you don't you don't go off the

718
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 1: way you're calibrating.

719
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 3: It's it's calibrating, recalibrating, bro, Like I for dog on it.

720
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: That's right, I'm about to get dog on a hit.

721
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 3: Naturally for that point zero two seconds, my eyes went

722
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 3: away from the ball because I'm like, oh, it's been

723
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 3: a minute, so that it is a focus drop. But again,

724
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 3: I have to get recalibrated, and I'm about to get

725
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 3: dog on hit. And guess what, that's a part of

726
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 3: the game.

727
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: Dang it. I wish that didn't happen. And it's fun.

728
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 3: The diving catch. Right, I died for the ball. I

729
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 3: haven't done for the ball in freaking six months. Okay,

730
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 3: last time I do for the ball, I tuck my elbows.

731
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 3: This time my elbows were out. Dang it, all right,

732
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,719
Speaker 3: I said something that's easily correctable. I'll tuck my elbows

733
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 3: next time, next time I get the cradle that that's

734
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 3: a catch. I sure wish that didn't happen in the game, though,

735
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, Like, those are the things

736
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 3: that I'm talking about in terms of like recalibrating himself.

737
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 3: And that's why after the game, when you interview ceedde Lamb,

738
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 3: he says, please believe I'm gonna come back stronger. Why

739
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 3: because those are all things that are correctable. I already

740
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 3: know how to correct those things. I just wish that

741
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 3: they didn't happen in Again, you also know what he said.

742
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 3: He said, God has a weird way of hem. He did,

743
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 3: and that was the answer to the question of did

744
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 3: he feel a little over confident then after the first

745
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 3: half that he was having and then his answer was

746
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 3: God has a strange way of humbling you. So that

747
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 3: was him saying that maybe he did get over confident

748
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 3: and he felt confident enough that he can do that,

749
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 3: he can ditch the fundamentals at any get great.

750
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: I agree.

751
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,839
Speaker 3: And now you're saying, here's the ball coming, it's from

752
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 3: deck and let me get back.

753
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: His hands are here, and you're like, no, no, no, no.

754
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 3: No, oh not so fast. My friends see the ball

755
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 3: in and then make the place. And this applies to

756
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 3: all across the bort I know we're talking about CD,

757
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 3: but this was a calibration for a lot of guys.

758
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 3: Jack Sanborn, Seaball, hit ball. There's too much hesitation, Fowler

759
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 3: freaking keep your leverage, working on your passwords. I think

760
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 3: I don't know if they were being told the two

761
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 3: gaps in the first half and not really, we don't

762
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 3: work on one one shoulder of the offensive tackles. But

763
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 3: they were too gapping a lot. They worried it wasn't

764
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 3: much pass rush going on. Uh, Malik hooker wrap up right,

765
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 3: like there's there's We could point to a lot of different.

766
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 1: The whole board.

767
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 3: For guys that have not been playing in the preseason,

768
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 3: this was their calibration and you just wish it didn't

769
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 3: happen in the first game.

770
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 1: But again, be encouraged, be encouraged.

771
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,720
Speaker 3: You just face arguably, and there's no reason to say

772
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 3: anything different until these other teams start playing the best

773
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 3: team in football. They're returning champions from last year. We

774
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 3: returned seventeen starters and added players. Be encouraged. You wish

775
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,800
Speaker 3: you would have won the game. You had opportunities to

776
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 3: win the game. There's things that you could point out

777
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,359
Speaker 3: in the film that you could say, had we made

778
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 3: these plays, have we done these things better? We win

779
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 3: the game? And guess what Philly's saying the same thing.

780
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,359
Speaker 3: Had we had Jalen Carter, we would have won.

781
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 1: Buy more. Had we done these things, we would have won.

782
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 1: Buy more.

783
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 3: Like everybody's gonna do that. But be encouraged with you

784
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 3: have now Cowboys Nation. You have an idea of what

785
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 3: your team is. You have an idea of how impactful

786
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 3: you are without Mike up Parsons. You have an idea

787
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 3: of what your running game looks like. You have a

788
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 3: deal about a lot of things. Now this is week one.

789
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 3: That thought process is we can only get better from here.

790
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 3: That's the thought process. Now we have to sit and weight.

791
00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: They are who we thought they were.

792
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 2: If I've learned one thing in this segment, all the

793
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 2: way through is that Isaiah is trying to talk about

794
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 2: starters in his preseason broadcasts next year, and he's just

795
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,839
Speaker 2: trying to push Brian Schottenheimer to put the starters in

796
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: so he and Bill Jones can talk about him against

797
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,359
Speaker 2: the Falcons next year in preseason Week two.

798
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: That's what yes, flags, Yes, all right.

799
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 2: When we come back, I want to flip to the

800
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 2: defensive side of the football. Mattie Refluse made the adjustments late?

801
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 2: What happened with the container of Jalen Hurts early? And

802
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 2: how can you take steps forward? Plus? Are the Cowboys

803
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 2: good in coverage? Was the secondary good yesterday? When we

804
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 2: come back with more talking Cowboys right after this?

833
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,160

Speaker 1: Now.

838
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:03,719

839
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,359
Speaker 11: real doctor to know that Doctor Pepper is the one

840

Speaker 2: day for a bunch of good ones today. You guys

854
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 5: Zion Childress in the comment section.

855
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 2: There is literally a Zion Childress here. I'm giving it

856
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,840
Speaker 2: to Adam just because it kind of makes me chuckle.

857
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,399
Speaker 2: A second ago, you said I smashed another TV into

858
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 2: pieces last time.

859
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,919
Speaker 1: Oh hopefully it was a old TV.

860
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 2: Old TV. Yeah, don't smash TV's. Don't do that. That's

861
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,720
Speaker 2: what people dress up as cowboys fans that aren't actually

862
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 2: cowboys fans and then throw things at TVs to like.

863
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 5: Go viral anything. You should have smashed a CD player.

864
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 1: Mmm, with the anti skips, that's.

865
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 5: Rough, like a walkman or something that's rough.

866
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 1: It's good. Did you have anti skip?

867
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 9: Oh?

868
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 1: Yeah?

869
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 5: Did you absolutely money? You're all the jogging idea you have, bro.

870
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 3: I used to have a rubber band wrap that thing

871
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 3: around and my pants and it sent up my my,

872
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 3: my my pants and tightened up so that that thing

873
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 3: didn't move. Yep, that's it for all the non anti

874
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 3: skip people I had.

875
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 6: So I kept you from dropping this the cassette and

876
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,280
Speaker 6: like the worst of fanny pack situation.

877
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, with my turtleneck with a big chain like Dwayne

878
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 5: Rock looked like the Rock in the nineties.

879
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: I like it.

880
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 2: Uh, we've talked offense, We've talked a little bit of

881
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 2: the defense. I want to continue with the secondary question.

882
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 4: Mark man Mark who put the question mark in the

883
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 4: teleprocter that you know Kyle will read whatever.

884
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 2: Whatever's on the telepropter. Uh. I liked the coverage.

885
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 3: Yeah you day yea, Yeah, turns pretty much. I thought

886
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 3: a really nice job primarily all is one.

887
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 2: They did a and I was on this show specifically,

888
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 2: I've been very critical of the secondary and how without

889
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,359
Speaker 2: Trayvon Diggs. Luckily he's even partially back in the fold.

890
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 2: Without Trayvon Diggs, I don't know what the secondary is

891
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 2: going to look like. And I said that all off

892
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 2: season long. I feel much better about the secondary just

893
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,839
Speaker 2: seeing what they had out there. Was it perfect? No,

894
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,720
Speaker 2: but again, if you hold aj Brown to one reception

895
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 2: for eight yards, and you hold Devonte Smith for three receptions.

896
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 2: Even Dallas Goddard had seven catches, but he only went

897
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 2: for forty four yards. They limited the passing game entirely

898
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 2: in that even.

899
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 4: Even the deep throw of the Dots and the big

900
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 4: the chunk play, the biggest play of the game for

901
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,240
Speaker 4: the Philadelphia Eagles, that was good coverage.

902
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 1: Elon was right there on his hip. That was just

903
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 1: a damn yeah.

904
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,960
Speaker 4: That was just hurt seeing that the defender was on

905
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 4: the outside hip and the safety had already shaved it,

906
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 4: so he threw to the inside hip.

907
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,240
Speaker 3: And I still think the juries out I'm just being honest,

908
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 3: that's for anything. No, no, no, I'm saying we did

909
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 3: not truly have enough body of work in terms of coverage,

910
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 3: man to man coverage, to really have an understanding of

911
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 3: where you're at with your dB. And I think they

912
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:34,359
Speaker 3: were being protected by ibers in that regard.

913
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: And there's nothing wrong with that.

914
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 2: That's fine. There's nothing wrong with this as long as

915
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 2: it's schemed.

916
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: Up and they're and that's what it was. It was.

917
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: I don't care if.

918
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 2: It's a man's zone, guy by one High, I don't care.

919
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,800
Speaker 1: Guys play zones very well yesterday.

920
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 3: I don't know yet the ability of our DB's to

921
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 3: play man to man for a majority of the game

922
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 3: right now, I don't know. We don't have enough on

923
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 3: film sure to state that. So that's why I said

924
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 3: coverage wise, and and and scheme wise, it was great

925
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 3: for whatever Philly was presenting, right Iberflus had those guys

926
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 3: dialed up, whatever whatever else they were running, there was

927
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 3: somebody in that zone making sure that they were taking

928
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 3: it away. I don't know in terms of ability to

929
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 3: cover yet. And I think with Deron Bland just coming

930
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 3: back with Trayvon Diggs, you know, being on a kind

931
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 3: of a pitch count, I don't think that Eberflus wanted

932
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,799
Speaker 3: to expose them, so that and also maybe Philadelphia's concepts

933
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 3: didn't you know, we're better.

934
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 1: Defended in his zone.

935
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 3: I don't know.

936
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:28,440
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was right, but either way,

937
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 1: they did a heck of a job with coverage.

938
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,800
Speaker 6: Their concepts didn't warrant man de man in the games

939
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,840
Speaker 6: the con it warranted a spy on the quarterback.

940
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 5: That's kind of gonna be my gridge.

941
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 1: You don't get, you don't get.

942
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,240
Speaker 5: Both totally understand totally understandable.

943
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 6: But if you're not putting your most athletic linebacker out

944
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,320
Speaker 6: there the entire game, I don't know what you're doing.

945
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 6: Because Jack Sanmore did not have a great game, did

946
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 6: not have a great one time getting.

947
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,480
Speaker 5: Stiff armed by.

948
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 3: One time I saw foul out there, Lias. I don't

949
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 3: remember what the route was. I think it was a

950
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 3: running back. They tried to shave him up and he

951
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 3: literally was like shadow boxing with this dude, Like the

952
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 3: dude made a move lea foul made a move.

953
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: His footwork was just like a mirror image with it.

954
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 3: I would have liked to see him more, but again,

955
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 3: I'm not sure how he fit into the scheme that

956
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 3: was executed yesterday. If you had to make a choice

957
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:23,399
Speaker 3: in terms of playing lea foul here to scheme him

958
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:27,719
Speaker 3: up to shadow. You know, Jalen Hurts versus have the

959
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 3: coverage that you had last night.

960
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 1: I'm taking what we saw like.

961
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 4: In the coverage because what I would rather limited the

962
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 4: big place, right, Because what I would rather do is

963
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,399
Speaker 4: I hate that Jalen Hurts was able to extend place.

964
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have to say that, but let me say it.

965
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.

966
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,920
Speaker 4: However, if this is to pick your poison scenario, and

967
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,279
Speaker 4: it very much is to pick your poison scenario, would

968
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:52,320
Speaker 4: you rather have Jalen Hurts have the strong ground game

969
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,479
Speaker 4: that he had in the first half, or aj Brown

970
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,359
Speaker 4: and DeVante Smith combined for two hundred yards and three

971
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 4: receiving touchdowns, like I would rather the latter or not

972
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 4: be a thing. That being said, Also to Isaiah's point,

973
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 4: something else to look at positively now that because they

974
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:12,840
Speaker 4: were forced into a zone coverage wisely so because of

975
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 4: the concepts that are run by the Eagles, and you

976
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 4: know their passing attack, you know that up against the

977
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 4: best receivers in the league in zone this, this personnel

978
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 4: can get the job done. Okay, that's with Treyvon Diggs

979
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:32,840
Speaker 4: only playing forty three percent of the snaps. Okay, so

980
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 4: now when they're forced to go into a man coverage

981
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,760
Speaker 4: and Trayvon Diggs now is more time removed from playing

982
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 4: in the rust being knocked off. Now you're looking at

983
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 4: the three pack, You're looking at Elam and Diggs and

984
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 4: Bland on the field at the same time.

985
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 3: You didn't often see that last night. Trevon Diggs didn't

986
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 3: even technically start the game last night. So as he

987
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 3: gets that Russ knocked off. Now you know, can we

988
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 3: go zone against a team that has two right, that

989
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 3: has two arguably elite receivers. Yes, and you can do

990
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 3: it with one of your guys. You're all pro record

991
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 3: setting cornerback playing less than half the snaps, he's going

992
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,840
Speaker 3: to play more than this going festal So man zone.

993
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 3: To Kyle's point with a question mark, the coverage was secondary.

994
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 3: The secondary was good.

995
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:21,799
Speaker 6: And if you're going to do that, though, if you're

996
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 6: going to have zone, you're going to need a cleanup

997
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 6: crew on the second level, and I just don't think

998
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 6: the linebackers were that. And we had talked about how

999
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,839
Speaker 6: well the linebackers were playing up until throughout the preseason,

1000
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,399
Speaker 6: throughout camp, and then in Week one it just wasn't there.

1001
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: They were tasked with play zone. Right.

1002
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 3: Now, you have linebackers, you know, you got two A

1003
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 3: lot of times it was two linebackers, right, Samborne and

1004
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,800
Speaker 3: Murray playing in space, and they're covering so much ground

1005
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 3: where they're responsible for. Aj Brown was running a lot

1006
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 3: of whip routes and hunting short underneath routes. Dotson was

1007
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:52,200
Speaker 3: running across the middle of the field. So you had

1008
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 3: these guys that were literally covering receivers right because the

1009
00:45:56,120 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 3: zone defense demanded that they guard that area, right. So, yeah,

1010
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,480
Speaker 3: there was elements that you wish were different, But again,

1011
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 3: you're in a situation where you had to say, hey,

1012
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 3: we either got to do this and limit limit, you know,

1013
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 3: the big plays, or we got to do this and

1014
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,879
Speaker 3: we're subject to big plays with you know, with guys

1015
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,400
Speaker 3: who necessarily haven't played a lot lately. They have a

1016
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,359
Speaker 3: responsibility to make sure Trayvon was healthy coming out of Again,

1017
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 3: I had a responsibility to make sure that Deron Bland

1018
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 3: was able to do what he needed to do and

1019
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:22,280
Speaker 3: build his confidence.

1020
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 1: So I understand, and I am perfectly fine.

1021
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 3: I am perfectly fine with the scheme that was brought

1022
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,840
Speaker 3: to the game by Matt Eberfleece yesterday. You just would

1023
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:34,839
Speaker 3: love to see them restricted the rushing lanes a little

1024
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:36,319
Speaker 3: bit more. You'd like to see them get a little

1025
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 3: bit better pass rush. These are all things that are correctable,

1026
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,400
Speaker 3: but in terms of what their responsibilities were defensively outside

1027
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,759
Speaker 3: of that front d line, those guys did a heck

1028
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 3: of a job.

1029
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 6: Yes, one thing, one thing, and I want to do

1030
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:48,920
Speaker 6: this probably for the last time.

1031
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 5: I want to bring it out. But this has brought

1032
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 5: up a lot yesterday. It's like Dallas really missed a

1033
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 5: guy like Michael Parsons.

1034
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 2: It's true, it's true.

1035
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,359
Speaker 5: It's no doubt, there's no doubt about it.

1036
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,680
Speaker 1: And you didn't have a guy like them on over shown.

1037
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 5: You didn't have a guy like Kenny Clark out there.

1038
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 5: You did not have a guy huge impact. So if

1039
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:09,359
Speaker 5: you would have had Michael Parsons, you wouldn't MASI would

1040
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 5: have had more yards, had a lot more yards. You

1041
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 5: have had a way bigger issue in the running game.

1042
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: So he got redirected a lot.

1043
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 6: People are forgetting that fact is that the run defense

1044
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 6: would not have been and they weren't terrific yesterday. Granted

1045
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 6: they did hold U s Bark to fifty yards, you

1046
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 6: did not have Kenny Clark before Michael Parks.

1047
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 4: I will honestly say Parson pars with the game. They

1048
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 4: were not terrific in the first half. They were pretty

1049
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:36,880
Speaker 4: freaking terrific in the second.

1050
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 5: They cleaned it up. Yew adjustments.

1051
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 4: Like we said, i'mna lobby right back to k Why

1052
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:45,839
Speaker 4: you could have had if the defensive front would have

1053
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:49,960
Speaker 4: been able to maintain or keep contained on Jalen Hurts

1054
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 4: and shore up that the rushing lanes, you could have

1055
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 4: had three or four covered sects.

1056
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: Last night.

1057
00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 4: They almost got home on him, yeah twice, in particular

1058
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 4: Trayvon Diggs. He had just missed on it and they

1059
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 4: couldn't clean up on the back end.

1060
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 1: First touchdown was coverage.

1061
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, he only reason why he was able to get

1062
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:11,040
Speaker 3: out of the pocket because the fowler went inside. Everybody else

1063
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 3: was covered up in like that. One guy went outside

1064
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,160
Speaker 3: of the scheme and they allowed for Jalen Hurts.

1065
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,319
Speaker 4: If your coverage plays, if your secondary plays, this will

1066
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 4: see fifteen out of seventeen regular season games. Keep in mind,

1067
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 4: you're not going to go against every week or every

1068
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 4: other week a quarterback with the mobility and the talent

1069
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 4: that Jalen Hurts has. Sure, Okay, you will pay off, right,

1070
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 4: So if you get there first playoffs, I'm getting first.

1071
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 1: That's why I said fifteen or seventeen. I ain't in January.

1072
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you, if your secondary, your coverage can play

1073
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 4: like this for the majority of the season, you will

1074
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 4: win a lot more games than you will lose because

1075
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 4: your defensive line will get home a lot more times

1076
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 4: than they don't get home. Because a lot of these

1077
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 4: quarterbacks they have some mobility, but they don't have Jalen

1078
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:58,839
Speaker 4: Hurts's type of mobility. They don't have the what's my

1079
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,399
Speaker 4: guy Josh Allen. They don't have his mobility. They don't

1080
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,400
Speaker 4: have the Lamar Jackson's mobility. You're going to have just

1081
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:08,760
Speaker 4: traditional pocket passers who will see a Sam Williams clapsing

1082
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:12,120
Speaker 4: down and they'll see, you know, mayor Sleafile being sent

1083
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 4: after you. They'll see Dante Fowler come in and they'll

1084
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 4: blink and once they blink, they're down.

1085
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:18,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it.

1086
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 2: There were times where Micah Parsons would have made an

1087
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 2: impact in this game one way or the other They

1088
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,359
Speaker 2: missed him at times, but I also think we've now

1089
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 2: seen that Dallas will survive without him in the full defense.

1090
