Gentlemen, where do we start? 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:07.800 We start? 0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:10.479 There are a lot of different things to break down. 0:01:10.600 --> 0:01:13.959 We could talk about, Yeah, we could talk about that, 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:19.080 talk about Jayalen Carter, talk about a couple couple dropped opportunities, 0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:22.720 a couple of things that slipped right through your fingertips 0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:29.080 within spitting distance. If you yeah, all all the metaphors, 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:32.679 all the puns, all the puns. Cowboys fall had a 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:35.040 shot to beat the reigning Super Bowl champions on the 0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:39.399 road in Week one. It hurts the fact that they 0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:42.200 had a shot and they very easily could have won 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:44.560 that game with as well as they played. 0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:49.920 That shot, And it hurts. 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:54.600 Man. This is just we're on a roll here. No, 0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:58.160 but you had an opportunity late and ultimately just couldn't 0:01:58.160 --> 0:01:58.560 get it done. 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:02.480 Listen, you guys know everything about talking cowboys. We don't 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:04.880 do moral victories, no going to do moral victories. But 0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:08.280 I can tell you what last night last night, when 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:11.000 there is no draw, right, win or lose? Right, obviously 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:13.959 you lost. You were going to find out where your 0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:18.040 team was. You had you had no idea what your 0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:20.880 team was. You literally had no idea that most of 0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:22.720 the guys that were playing last night had not touched 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:24.840 the field in the in the preseason. That's just what 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:29.640 it is. You know what you have now in Cowboys Nation. Again, 0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:31.880 I'm going to say there are no moral victories, so 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:36.119 don't don't at me. However, you should be highly encouraged. 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:39.400 Absolutely you should be highly encouraged as to what you 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.520 have for what's transpired with this organization over the past 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:47.639 week in terms of losing your best defensive player and 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:51.120 seeing exactly what your defense looks like now, seeing exactly 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:53.640 what your coverage looks like with Trayvon Diggs coming off 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:55.160 of injury, and you still have other guys that have 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:58.240 to come off the injury report to make contributions, to 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.519 see what your offense looks like. We're Brian's Schoenheimer and 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:04.880 really everybody not even really being utilized last night. 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:06.799 You should be encouraged by the running game. 0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:09.200 You had questions and concerns about who was going to 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:11.120 be able to tote the rock and can you be 0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.320 effective on the ground with the ground game. You should 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:15.960 be encouraged by your offensive line. How are these guys 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:18.080 going to be able to be able to run block? 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.560 Can these guys protect? Can they keep Daka? Is Dak's 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:23.160 hamstring healthy? Can he run? Can he get out the pocket? 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.560 All these things. There's a lot of questions that I 0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:28.800 don't want to say fully got answered, but you have 0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:32.919 a pretty good idea as to where you're at right now. 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.360 And again, you just played the Super Bowl champs. Who 0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:40.520 returned almost everybody, almost seventeen out of twenty two starters. 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:43.120 Impressive, they returned. 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.200 The Super Bowl champions returned seventeen out of twenty two starters. 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:48.040 And you just went total told with them, and you 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:50.680 should have won. You should have won. You had your opportunities, 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:54.560 absolutely right. So again, no moral victories, but I am encouraged. Right, 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:56.240 I have predicted that they were going to lose twenty 0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.480 seven to twenty one, I think, right, just guys like eh, 0:03:58.520 --> 0:03:59.440 I just don't know who they are. 0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:00.600 I don't know if they're gonna be able to get 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:01.280 over to edge. Right. 0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:04.800 This was this was a good matchup. And I've gotten 0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:07.760 through the first half of film so far. A lot 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:10.160 of things clean up, but all these things that that 0:04:10.200 --> 0:04:11.640 you see on film are correctable. 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:14.320 But again we'll get into the details. I'm highly encouraged. 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:16.480 Is it a lot of things that you think would 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.720 have benefited from a few snaps in the preseason. 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:22.159 Yes, very much, so very much. I said it last 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:23.080 night on a post game show. 0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:24.560 I was about to say, did you listen to post 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:25.280 game last night? 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:26.040 Yeah? 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.120 And then that's kind of why I'm leading into that, 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.480 because those are a lot of things and a lot 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:30.920 of fans. 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:32.200 We're kind of saying this too. 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:34.480 You know, it's if you don't have Dak playing in 0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:37.040 the preseason at all, getting snaps, getting familiar. That was 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:38.880 the first time we had seen the offensive line play 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:43.920 together as one on the field Thursday Night Football Game one. 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:48.160 That's a crazy that's a tall order if you will, 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:53.160 to serve up for Opening Day. But the Cowboys went 0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:56.640 down the field on two drives in a row and 0:04:56.720 --> 0:04:59.320 score touchdowns. You have to love that. You have to 0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.159 love what Brian Schottenheimer came in with. Another thing that 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.200 you said on the pregame show was that your coordinators 0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:04.720 were prepared. 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:06.000 They got your guys prepared. 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:09.560 I loved that because it was clear, it was obvious. 0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:12.240 I don't know that I necessarily loved Matt Eberflus's game 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.320 plan when you look at the snaps of like a 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:17.240 Maris lea foul, why he wasn't on the field, why 0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:20.080 he wasn't spying Jalen Hurts, Especially after the first few 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:23.560 drives where they went down and scored touchdowns. 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:25.840 Back to back to back. It's tough, but I think 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:26.880 there's a lot to build on. 0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:27.800 I'll tell you what. 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.760 And speaking to eber Flus really quickly before I get 0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:33.480 to some of my key takeaways, because a lot a 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:37.640 lot here, but I'll give as some mestion. But Eberflus, 0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:41.320 we talk about culture change. Mazzie Smith was a healthy scratch. 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:44.720 You don't see that under Michae McCarthy. Mich McCarthy is 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.560 still in this building as head coach. Mazzie Smith is 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:52.400 not a healthy scratch at any point ever. So I 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:55.880 would like to say that Schottenheimer and eber Flus are 0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:57.680 keeping to what they said. They said they want to 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.479 see more consistency from Mozzie Smith. Those were not words 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:05.200 at all. Compete every day everything, So so kudos to 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:07.600 them for that. Now, as far as some of the 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:11.359 takeaways from those who did play, love what Isaiah's saying, 0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:14.839 love with Josh is saying, and I completely agree. Again, 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:16.400 we will say this, and we will have to say 0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:19.039 this a million other times because we already know how 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:19.600 fans are. 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:22.920 There are no moral victories, zero whatever. 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:26.120 Just as if the Cowboys had won, there would have 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:29.120 been negatives to discuss as far as improvements. Yeah, okay, 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:32.120 just like the Cowboys lost this game, there are positives 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:36.960 to discuss along with the negatives. Yep, that's called football talk. Okay, 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:40.320 there are a lot of positives. Schottenheimer came out his 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:43.920 script was magnificent on that first drive. But then you're 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:47.760 thinking to yourself, Okay, script looks magnificent. First twelve to 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:54.320 fifteen plays cool. Second drive mostly on scripted, still look magnificent. 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:55.880 Oh mind, what are we doing? 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:56.040 Here? 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:58.760 Are a lot there's a lot of pre snap motion 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:00.960 here in that snap motion there, these are a lot 0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:04.080 of condensed offensive sets to make things that much more 0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:07.680 challenging on the defense for the Eagles. And then you 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:12.239 look at Dak. Granted no preseason, but saw stat yesterday 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:16.800 finished the game with ninety percent catchuple throws ninety percent. 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:21.120 Dak was pristine out there the run game. To Isaiah's point, 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:24.120 we had no idea what this run game would look like, 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:26.400 or this new look offensive line would look like. Man, 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:29.040 I get it. Jay Len Carter got removed, but guess what. 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.520 They still have bodies out there like Jordan Davis for example. 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:34.720 Shouts out to Javonte Williams. He was making the best 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:38.200 of every opportunity given to him. In conjunction with the 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.040 fact that man, this offensive line was just moving bodies 0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:42.680 they were moving. 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:44.080 Bodies forward, sideways. 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.600 It was a lot of steering going on out there. 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.800 So run game looks good. Passing game looked great. Ceedee 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:53.640 Lamb was virtually unstoppable in the first half. You know, 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.800 he was approaching one hundred yard game at the half. Okay, 0:07:58.360 --> 0:08:01.640 let's see what else I got here. Defense iber Flus 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:05.840 struggled with his initial game plan. Okay, first half did 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:07.880 not look great in the run defense, and of course 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:12.720 everyone include in us, I disagree, didn't look great because 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:13.960 of Jalen Hurts. 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:18.400 Yes, it wasn't because sa Quon was going off doing Saquon. 0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:20.000 They bottled him up. 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:25.360 Yes, it was because Jalen Hurts his mobility. But if 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:27.480 you go back and look at the film, as we 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:31.040 do on Talking Cowboy, what you would notice is that 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:33.600 a lot of those runs from Jalen Hurts, none of 0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:34.480 them were designed. 0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:35.640 They were broken. 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:41.560 Plays because the covering bridge absolutely down Chef Kiss. 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:47.040 Okay, so at that point, now another positive halftime adjustments. 0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.920 We saw halftime adjustments from the defense, absolutely. 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:50.920 Oh Man. 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:53.560 One hundred and twenty plus yards on the ground for 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:57.520 the Eagles in the first half, roughly thirty on the 0:08:57.520 --> 0:09:00.760 ground in the second half. Three were ties in the 0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:04.280 first half, zero offensive touchdowns allowed in the second half. 0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.000 A lot of positives be taken to be taken away 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:12.560 from here. Solomon Thomas, yes, sir played well, Okay Clark, 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:18.280 Kenny Clark, sir Osa in the second half, three. 0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:21.680 Defensive tackles that did what he's going on? 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.520 I did and shout out because I was shout out 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:25.920 to Marshawn. 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:29.640 Marshawant was not. 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:33.440 Necessarily over the hill for the pass rush, but in 0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:37.480 terms of his had two sects physicality. The way that 0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:43.040 Marshawn o Sa, Solomon and Kenny Clark came off the 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:47.000 ball that it was so encouraging when watching on film, 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:50.120 like they were firing off the ball. Solomon Thomas is 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:54.320 a madman coming off the snap like relent and he 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:55.280 doesn't just look the part. 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:57.400 You know, it's the second moves too. It was the 0:09:57.400 --> 0:09:59.439 fact that he would get locked up on one side 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.760 and yeah, yeah, I mean there were so many different 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:04.480 options on the film. When you go back and look 0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:05.240 at it, it's. 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:06.480 A fun one. It really was. 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:09.439 In the top of that adds to very exciting. 0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:11.800 How many times did we see in the past, just 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:14.520 recent seasons, the Cowboys with go to go defense just 0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:17.560 basically find ways to partner it see or get bullied 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:21.040 and just pushed into no not not last night against 0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:23.320 the arguably the best offensive line in the game. 0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:26.520 It took. For example, one off Jalen Hurts rushing touchdowns 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:31.920 was because it was go to go stuffed, stuffed and 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:32.439 then he. 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:34.880 Goes to it wasn't easy, right, he goes to roll out, 0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:36.679 He's like, Oh, I don't have anyone to pass too? 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.960 Why because the coverage is Christine. He rolls out bootlegs 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:43.800 and there you go. So lots of positive takeaways these negatives. 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:46.040 One thing that you just brought up marsh On kneel 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:49.360 and a guy that you've been critical of since for 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:51.440 him to show out like you did yesterday was impressive. 0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:54.840 But what did you see? What was different from camp 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:55.679 from yesterday? 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:56.160 Violence? 0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:00.320 You don't you don't get that violence, and you get 0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:02.800 that violence in camp. You just don't know. You don't, 0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.160 you don't don't. You're not tackling it. Even when you 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:08.360 are thudding up, you're still going three quarters. Let's call 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.360 it what it is right in training camp and at 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:12.240 the line position because you what are your coach is. 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:13.960 Saying stay up, Stay up, Stay up. 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:16.600 You can't go one hundred percent when you're worried about falling, 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:18.280 you know, not trying not to fall on the ground. 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:20.880 So that's just be really be real, be honest about it. 0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:23.280 The way that he was firing out the ball, even 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:25.760 though I would like to see a I would like 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.520 for him to get a bag of pass rushers when 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:31.960 he even when he two gaps, he's powerful and he 0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:35.760 pushed Lane Johnson back numerous times into the into the 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:40.040 lap of Jalen Hurts. So those things were very encouraging. 0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:42.360 Like I said, there's a lot to go through. But you, 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:48.160 for fans understand you. You won the number of first downs, 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:54.000 you one third down, you one total total yards, you 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:55.679 one average game per play. 0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:56.800 You. 0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:59.080 Let me let me add you won the coaching Yeah, 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:00.680 let me let me add to this a little bit. 0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:04.280 If you would have told me on Wednesday going into 0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:08.200 Thursday that Sakuon Barkley is held to three point three 0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:11.439 yards per case. 0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:10.640 Are cool? 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:15.600 DeVante Smith finishes with three grabs for sixteen yards, no touchdowns. 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:17.480 Longest was seven yards. 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:18.520 I know a J. 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:20.440 Brown one reception. 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:22.080 Well, he was in the building. He was there. 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:22.920 He was in the building. 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:23.680 At the end of the game. 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:25.680 Yeah, one reception for eight yards at the end of 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:27.880 the game will at the end of the game. If 0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:29.640 you would have told me all three of those things 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:32.959 were true, I don't care what anybody else does. I 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:35.880 think Dallas wins the game. And that's part of why 0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:39.720 this one does hurt the way that it does. And 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:42.320 I say hurt with the little emphasis because you talked 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.719 about third down. That was the problem. That was the 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:48.160 problem eight of thirteen and most of those thirteen that 0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:50.880 didn't end up on the positive side for Philly was 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:53.240 late and that was part of the adjustment. In the 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:55.520 forty five seconds that I saw my wife this morning, 0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:58.080 we talked to football because that was really all we 0:12:58.120 --> 0:12:59.960 had when we get home at two am and then 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.319 turn around and get up here at eight am. Yeah, 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.160 and that's not even as bad as what Patrick's having 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.160 to deal with and Chris beam are having to deal with. 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:08.240 But for the forty five seconds I saw Laurena and 0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:11.400 I said, you know, I think it boils down to 0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:17.320 I loved Schottenheimer's game plan. I loved Eberflus's adjustments, and 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:20.640 that's part of the game. Well, the game plan was 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:22.280 there in the first half from the offense, and the 0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:25.160 game plan wasn't bad for Ebraflus in the first half. 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:28.040 They did good things or else Saquon Barkley doesn't get 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:30.200 held to three point three yards per carry. But the 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:33.559 adjustments going into the second half from the defensive side 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:37.360 gave the offense every opportunity to win that game in 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:40.120 the third or the fourth quarter, and you didn't take advantage. 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:43.880 To your point, Iberflus's game plan, I actually think in the. 0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:45.360 First half was really good. 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:48.880 We're talking about like shutting down AJ Brown, We're talking 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:52.160 about shutting in down DeVante Smith. That's the Barkley for 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:55.160 the entire game. It was Jalen Hurts that hurt you, 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:58.199 no pun intended. It was those third down situational things. 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:00.920 It was Dante Fowler not have his best game. It 0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:04.720 was the linebackers not cleaning up, you know, the second level. 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.120 It was the second level all day because Osa dige 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:10.000 Zoo was in the backfield on every It was insane. 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:12.400 And the reason why I pointed, I'm not pointing fingers 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.920 at anybody. We're just no, no, we watch film around here, Okay, 0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:17.040 so that's what we do. Talking cowboys. I can't speak 0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:19.640 to the other shows. You know, we watched, We watched 0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:20.120 film and we. 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:21.640 Talked watched it on the way home last night. 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:22.320 There was a lot of. 0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:24.840 Things that you could point out as every coach on 0:14:24.880 --> 0:14:26.920 that staff is going to do. They are going to 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:29.080 dissect it for those that are at home, and when 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:32.560 you're a professional athlete in the NFL, the coaches come in, 0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:36.720 they watched the film first. They literally grade every single play. 0:14:36.720 --> 0:14:38.720 They give you a plus or they give you a minus. 0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:41.480 When you walk into that meeting room that morning to 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:44.200 go over what just took place, you were handed a 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:47.520 packet of every play that was had for your offensive 0:14:47.600 --> 0:14:51.440 or defensive snaps, which your grade for that play, whatever 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.440 plays you're on, you're graded okay, and you go through 0:14:54.520 --> 0:14:56.760 every single play and you talk what you should have 0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:58.040 done better, what we could have done better. 0:14:58.080 --> 0:14:59.960 As a unit. We were talking about. 0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:01.800 The d line and how they were firing off and 0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.160 how they for the most part, had relatively good gap 0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:07.520 discipline the linebackers. I know it is going to be 0:15:07.600 --> 0:15:10.440 highlighted and Maddiebriflus as his position, so please believe he's 0:15:10.440 --> 0:15:13.240 going to correct this. These guys were not playing as 0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:17.120 a cohesive unit in the terms of reactionary action, you 0:15:17.160 --> 0:15:17.600 know what I'm saying. 0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:20.800 They weren't reacting, they were waiting. There was gaps that 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:21.240 were there. 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.640 That's why Saquan got off and got should have been 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:26.080 negative two, negative three yards a couple times, and he 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:28.280 was able to make it plus four, right, because we 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:30.600 were not shooting the gaps. We weren't seeing ball hit ball. 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:33.000 There's hesitation there, and I think those are things that 0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:36.080 you only get by knocking off the rust. Last night 0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:37.960 was knocking off the rust. You just wish that it 0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:40.720 would have happened somewhere in the preseason or a training camp. 0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:44.760 But again, these are all the correctable items, and I 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:47.400 am encouraged by it. Only thing that sticks out to 0:15:47.440 --> 0:15:50.440 me had like a sore thumb. The Philadelphia Eagles were 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:52.840 three for three in the red zone. If the Dallas 0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:56.360 Cowboys were three for three, Dallas Cowboys win the game. 0:15:56.400 --> 0:15:58.800 I'm not pointing saying that was the only thing. Officer's 0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:03.240 a gazillion things that took place. The fumble killed it. Yeah, 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:05.040 the fumble killed it. You were in the resid first 0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:06.960 of all, should never got to the fumbel because that 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:10.320 was a heck of a blocked up great call by Schottenheimer, 0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:12.480 blocked up by the old line and the receivers should 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:14.360 have been a house called, not a house call. 0:16:14.560 --> 0:16:17.080 Who cribs there right, Jade and Blue Jane, Blue cribs 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.200 that understood. I mean it happened one of the few 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:20.320 coaching It's not. 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:21.000 I'm not gonna. 0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:24.240 I'm not gonna. I'm not going to fifty back made 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:26.160 a heck of a player, faulting him for that. But 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:28.040 we're saying because two things can be true at the 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:29.960 same time. It is a hell of a play that's 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:34.360 blocked up wonderfully. Yeah, he executed it wonderfully, and it's 0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:37.800 also true that he got dragged down from behind. 0:16:38.080 --> 0:16:40.840 But the same thing about Cavante Turpin. Though you can 0:16:40.880 --> 0:16:42.040 throw anybody's name in the. 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:48.360 Count on that particular plays Turping, but you can always always, 0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:50.280 so that's what I'm saying, But you always look. 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:51.960 At this player was there. 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:56.000 Blue is faster and in that particular play, all things 0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:58.600 being equal, Blue is not getting caught from behind. 0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:00.600 To counteract that, though you have Zach Bond in the 0:17:00.600 --> 0:17:03.840 backfield that is gone, I mean in the out in 0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:05.520 space who cleaned it up? 0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:08.200 It was Asle seven. I mean he was clearing up 0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:10.359 all day every day. I don't know. 0:17:10.320 --> 0:17:15.760 Necessarily that Jayden Blue cribs that the chances are much higher. 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:19.040 Let's listen, listen, listen. 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:21.960 We can't go down the line and say on this play, 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:24.960 if that's what I'm saying, that player, We're not going 0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:25.320 to do that. 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:26.320 But it was. 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:27.680 A heck of a play by Zach Bond. Heck of 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:30.000 a played on the offense for the Dallas Cowboys. Unfortunately, 0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:32.280 you didn't score. You would have liked to score, and 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:35.080 the consequence of that was unfortunately, ball security wasn't there. 0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:37.040 You lost the ball. But we could point to that, 0:17:37.280 --> 0:17:38.760 we can point to the George. 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:41.480 Picktt, you know what I'm saying, which killed you on 0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:43.639 your ability to score touchdown on that particular drive. So 0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:45.640 there was a number of things that took place. We're 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.919 not pointing fingers. We're just addressing that one stat line. 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:50.800 If you were three for three, you win the game. 0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:54.880 Well, turnovers decide games, and that was the only turnover 0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:56.080 of the entire game. 0:17:56.160 --> 0:17:57.320 And drops and. 0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:00.480 Yeah, drops in your quarterback tried to say you even 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:01.680 from that turnover. 0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:03.360 I want to talk a little more offense. Let's talk 0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:05.760 about the drops. Let's talk about the significance of Dak 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:09.320 last night, and I thought he had some some ups 0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:12.120 and some downs, but really it was more ups than downs. 0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:15.679 Cowboys lose twenty four to twenty to the Philadelphia Eagles. 0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:17.919 Let's talk offense when we come back right after this. 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:23.600 AT and T has a new guarantee. Because most things 0:18:23.640 --> 0:18:27.520 in life are not guaranteed, like getting through self checkout by. 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:31.119 Yourself warning, each item must be placed in the bagging area, 0:18:31.520 --> 0:18:35.439 not guarantee.

You depend on deals you 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:43.280
