79
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: Don't you wear get that bigness.

80
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 4: So Russell Wilson one year deal to go to the Steelers,

81
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins.

82
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: So the free agent tampering.

83
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 4: Period at noon gets rolling, so you can officially tamp

84
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 4: they have been tampering. So it's about Kirk Cousins going

85
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 4: to Atlanta, talk about possible forty million dollars and Baker Mayfield,

86
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 4: Congratulations the baker.

87
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 2: Baker's back with the Bucks, got himself a big old deal.

88
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 4: They took care of that. They took care of receiver

89
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 4: Mike Evans. Congratulations to him. So moves are being made here.

90
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: And if kirk Cousins gets forty million dollars, I really

91
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 4: don't want to hear any Cowboy fans start morning and

92
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 4: growing because guess what, Dak Prescott's gonna get his money.

93
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 4: And if it hits up into the sixty million, it's

94
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 4: going to hit up in there. It is now there

95
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 4: are no cheap quarterbacks in this league, guys.

96
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 2: Russell one team, yeah, somebody else is bearing the bill

97
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 2: on rush.

98
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 5: So yeah, Russ pocketing thirty nine.

99
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 4: But at the same time, Russ is sitting here in

100
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 4: that point where Baker Mayfield was last year. Okay, you're

101
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 4: leaving a situation it was kind of cloudy, so you're

102
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 4: doing that one year kind of pillow deal. It's all

103
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 4: a baseball pillow deal. You fall right here for a

104
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 4: year and then get back in the market. So if

105
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 4: Russell Wilson has a good year, boom, he can get

106
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 4: right back in here and start start dealing. But I

107
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 4: just keep laughing as I read social media of fans

108
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 4: who want to get mad at Dak Prescott and Dak's money.

109
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 4: This is what the market is, and you're mad at

110
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 4: the player, when essentially you should be mad at the

111
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 4: team because the team gave the player all the leverage,

112
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 4: so the player's gonna use it.

113
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, listen, I think we all talked about it with

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 5: four years was it four years ago when for your

115
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 5: franchise and we sitting there saying, hey, man, go ahead

116
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 5: and get it done. Then you put the franchise tag

117
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 5: on it, so that kind of pushes it to where

118
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 5: you are now.

119
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 2: So I mean, as a former player, I'm.

120
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 5: Like, hey, hey, somebody got to figure out a way

121
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,479
Speaker 5: to get it. I think Dak Prescott has put itself

122
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 5: in a a in a position to where he's coming

123
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 5: off of MVP type year leading the league in touchdowns,

124
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 5: interceptions are down. And you look at it and you say,

125
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 5: when you look at a Baker Mayfield or whoever else

126
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 5: is getting paid, I want to be higher than them

127
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 5: because this is what I did in.

128
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 2: The previous year.

129
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 5: So this is the Cowboys fault that then in the situation,

130
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 5: And to me, I think the strangest thing about it

131
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 5: is you have a couple of three players on your

132
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 5: team that you're going to be resetting the market with.

133
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 5: And I guess that's a testament to the way that

134
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 5: you draft. You're going to reset the market at wide receiver,

135
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 5: You're going to reset the market at the linebacker position.

136
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 2: Is it lineback is a defensive end or is it linebacker?

137
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 3: It got classified as a defensive end.

138
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,679
Speaker 2: Better if you want that money because it.

139
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 5: But I think under the fifth year option, isn't it

140
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 5: lower as being a defensive end as it was a

141
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 5: line Either way, it is.

142
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 4: Lower, it is, but he's that But that distinction thereamer

143
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 4: Todd Archer had had had a long thing he rode

144
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,359
Speaker 4: up there available on social media. But bottom line is

145
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 4: he is classified defensive end. Would have made more as

146
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 4: a linebacker, but.

147
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 2: In his in his fifth year option, he would have

148
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 2: made more.

149
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 3: Well, just the the tag linebacker was more.

150
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 5: But in his in his contract negotiations, when he's negotiating

151
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 5: as a defensive end versus the linebacker will to be higher.

152
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: Here's what I think.

153
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 4: At the end of the day, when he negotiating, it's

154
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 4: gonna be what's the highest number.

155
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 2: Band he gonna the defensive end is one? What's your one?

156
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 2: I mean.

157
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 5: But but the distinction itself as it came down, I

158
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 5: thought when I when I saw it, it's like, what

159
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 5: are the Cowboys doing? But then then as it was

160
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 5: explained to me, it's not the Cowboys that make that distinction.

161
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 5: It's the players Association that that does that. And so

162
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 5: look again, looking over the league, there's so many moves

163
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 5: being made and the ones that you were just talking about,

164
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 5: especially at the quarterback position. With Russell going to Pittsburgh,

165
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 5: it was a no brainer in our group chat, I

166
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 5: said Pittsburgh online one because it was a natural fit

167
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 5: for me, and I look at their coach and I'm

168
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 5: like look, man, that that was the guy that you

169
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 5: needed to bring in that hopefully can get your offense going.

170
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 5: If I'm a receiver at Pittsburgh, I'm thanking God that

171
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 5: we finally get a quarterback at Russell Wilson's arm hasn't

172
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 5: diminished that much that he still doesn't have anything on

173
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 5: the deep ball, intermediate routes. Maybe that deep out he

174
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 5: can't put that thing on the rope like he used to.

175
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 5: But other at the same token, when you turn over

176
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 5: to my guy Raheem Morris kirk Cousins, you know, in

177
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 5: that situation, if I'm Rohie Morris, like, do me a favor,

178
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 5: don't do me no favors right now, just to get

179
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 5: things started here. And look, you have enough talent around

180
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 5: and I do believe in the running game. I think

181
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 5: that running game is going to be sufficient enough to

182
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 5: support which whoever comes in there and plays quarterback. But

183
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 5: we got to get talking taking care of cowboy business.

184
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 5: You have to get Dak's deal done if you're going

185
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 5: to have any luck in free agency period.

186
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 2: You're correct, You're correct, And.

187
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 4: Once again I go back to just the way quarterback

188
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 4: contracts are set up. And then also you have to

189
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 4: talk about the agent. Here this game of agency. When

190
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 4: we talk about agents, you keep your job by being

191
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 4: able to go tell other free agents look at what

192
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 4: I do, and it gets used against you if you don't.

193
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 4: So when you look at Justin Herbert Fuller of fifty two,

194
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow high right now fifty five, it's an agent.

195
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 4: If you can't get those things beat, it gets used

196
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 4: against you. So the Cowboys got that working get against them.

197
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 4: And once again I go back to a guy like

198
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins. If you're gonna pay forty million dollars for

199
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins and we know his what he produces for you,

200
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 4: which is disappointment. And I say disappointment for the stairpoint

201
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 4: that they had went to the NFC Championship game with

202
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 4: Case Keenum and their whole thing was thanks Case, But

203
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 4: we need to go next level. We need a guy

204
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 4: that can get us over the hump. They never got

205
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 4: over the hump. They never got back to where they

206
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 4: were a Case Keenum. So maybe keep your own guy.

207
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 4: And here's the problem. I think about Atlanta. For forty

208
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 4: million dollars, you could have Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson was

209
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 4: available last last year and the owner said, well, we're

210
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 4: worried about him getting hurt.

211
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 5: But that was the weirdest negotiation of any player that

212
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 5: I've ever seen. Last season, when Lamar could, teams would

213
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 5: not touch Lamar.

214
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 2: So go back to what that was.

215
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 4: Remember, DeShawn got all that guaranteed money from Cleveland and

216
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 4: the owners were hot.

217
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 2: They were hot in the hasls, like he what are

218
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:12,679
Speaker 2: we doing here?

219
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 4: We're not doing this, and so it's kind of said,

220
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 4: not said that, hey man, nobody, don't nobody else go

221
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 4: do this? And so Lamar has any smart player, Oh

222
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 4: he's getting that. I want that too, And it was

223
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 4: almost as though, hey man, nobody give this guy that.

224
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 4: But eventually he signed a contract. He didn't get the

225
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 4: guarantees like Watson did.

226
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 2: He didn't get them in that collusion.

227
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 6: In that collusion we had to prove it was said, Okay,

228
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 6: this man looked. I'm just saying, if Deshaun Watson was

229
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 6: able to walk away with the bag like that, and

230
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 6: then you have an MVP in the league that's a

231
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 6: free agent, has an opportunity to have to reset the market,

232
00:10:58,600 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 6: and we're.

233
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 5: Still in a situation with Deshaun Watson. Is what is

234
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 5: still at the top of the food chain. Why why

235
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 5: is there even any discussion when we talk about dak

236
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 5: in restructuring his deal, And that's that's that's where I

237
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 5: have a disconnect in all of this.

238
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 4: You're you're correct, But it's the it's the fan base

239
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 4: and the fan base in general, and then of course

240
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 4: those fans who are anti Deak.

241
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 2: Okay, so you got that out there.

242
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 4: But just overall, when I think about Atlanta, what you

243
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 4: could have had in Lamar Jacks.

244
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 3: You about to pay forty you about to pay forty

245
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 3: million dollars.

246
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 4: For a guy that is who he is coming off

247
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 4: an injury that Oh, by the way, your team is

248
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 4: letting you go.

249
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 2: We'll miss you.

250
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 3: Thanks Kirk, good luck. Yes to me, that's that's wild.

251
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 3: And Dak Prescott, as we all saw.

252
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 4: Had a career year, second team All Pro last year.

253
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,959
Speaker 4: So in the first year of the offense, so I

254
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 4: just this is the business. Then the Cowboys and put

255
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 4: themselves out.

256
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 5: I think that's the saving grace, like first year of

257
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 5: the offense, because outside of that, I think some of

258
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 5: the frustration goes of the performances in the playoffs.

259
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 2: Oh man, So I think.

260
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 5: It's if Dak was able to turn what he's done

261
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 5: in the regular season into a couple.

262
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 2: Of playoff wins.

263
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 5: I don't think you will be getting as much pushback

264
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 5: for a sixty million dollar contract when the recency thing is, okay,

265
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 5: sixty million for what we just saw over the last

266
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 5: three years going twelve and five. It doesn't add up

267
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 5: in some people's eyes. But it's not even that. It's

268
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 5: more of this is the situation you put yourself in

269
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 5: as an organization because of how you did him on

270
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 5: his first contract.

271
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 2: So that is the issue. Do I have an issue

272
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 2: with them paying it.

273
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 5: I don't, But as I'm looking at it as a

274
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 5: Dallas Cowboys fan, I'm still saying the same thing some

275
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 5: of those fans are saying. I'm like, hey man, it's

276
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 5: three years of twelve and five, and we need this

277
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 5: type of performance in the playoffs in order for me

278
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 5: to feel comfortable with you moving forward for the next

279
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 5: four or five years. Because if I got to look

280
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 5: at that for the next four to five twelve and

281
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 5: five and then expect to be out in the first

282
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 5: round of playoffs, then I'm not seeing the sixty million

283
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 5: dollar work.

284
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 2: ROI I get it. I get it.

285
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 4: But it becomes two situations where playoff playoff production, and

286
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 4: I would put Lamar Jackson was he.

287
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 2: Two and four?

288
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 4: I think of the playoffs in two and five, So

289
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 4: so you know, money, playoff production. But then you're just

290
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 4: that whole contract thing. That's almost that's a separate deal.

291
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 4: It's a separate dealer. Fans don't see it that way,

292
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 4: but but you truly have to when you do this.

293
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 4: Michael Gallup, by the way, the team apparently reportedly said, hey, man,

294
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 4: go seek a trade.

295
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 2: We talked about it right here on the playoffs.

296
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 3: Liane probat to buy two Stevens.

297
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 4: Michael Gallop a guy we like, but thirteen million dollars

298
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 4: last year and you were if we include Jake Ferguson

299
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 4: as a target, you were target number four.

300
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 2: You can't do that. No, paid him way too much money.

301
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 5: And I think coming in the expectation for him coming

302
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 5: off of the a cl Andrew Will two years removed

303
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 5: from the ace Yell injury, we just never seen. We

304
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 5: never got that Mike g from before, and the expectation,

305
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 5: the money and all of that. You know what that's

306
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 5: gonna It's gonna be your undoing here and being the

307
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 5: fourth target at thirteen million dollars is a cush gig,

308
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 5: almost like a.

309
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 2: Back you know.

310
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 5: I mean, And I went way out on the limb

311
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 5: with that right there, right just saying I'll take it.

312
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 5: You know, I'm sure all year he was looking at

313
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 5: his chake like, you know, they really shouldn't be giving me.

314
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 5: He never said that, by the way, but I just look,

315
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 5: I wish him luck. I think that, you know, hopefully

316
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 5: there's maybe there's a way. But I think going forward

317
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 5: for the Cowboys, they have to find a guy at

318
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 5: that position. We've gone over that agnolzium, but they're just

319
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 5: basically talking about needing that guy playmaker, a difference maker

320
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 5: behind ceedee Lamb.

321
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 2: We just didn't get it.

322
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 5: And we can try and put three guys in a

323
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 5: barrel to be that one guy if we want to,

324
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 5: but we understand and when you go into the playoffs,

325
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 5: we did not have that secondary target that we could

326
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 5: rely on. And look, it's just Cowboy fans, you know,

327
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 5: I being amongst them, just feeling like like, man Dak

328
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 5: needs more from these guys. When it gets to playoff time,

329
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 5: they do.

330
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 2: Listen.

331
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 5: At some point, it's gonna be hey, you at some

332
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 5: point it's gonna say, man, because you are who you are,

333
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 5: this gotta be enough. At some point, I do agree

334
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 5: that we need that second guy outside of CD Lamb

335
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 5: to be more productive than we had in the previous year.

336
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 5: But it's just hard when you looking at sixty million

337
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 5: dollars and I know Patrick Mahomes is an outlier of

338
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 5: like you can look at what they have on offense

339
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 5: and you say, well, he can get it done. But

340
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 5: at some point I'm looking at that and I see

341
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 5: him play through the regular season, I'm saying I believe

342
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 5: that he can still get it done with the players

343
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 5: that he has on the squad. Like I think that

344
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 5: Ceedee Lamb, Ferguson, the emergency of Ferguson last year, had

345
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 5: at Zeke and Tony Poller, Like, you've had opportunities where

346
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 5: you had enough weapons to at least get further into

347
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 5: the playoffs, and we still haven't. We haven't seen And

348
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 5: it's the performance that he puts out there in the playoffs.

349
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 5: It's not like those other guys not showing up. It's

350
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 5: some of the things that are on just on him.

351
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 4: Quarterback, the quarterback Brandon cooks his resume and what he's

352
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 4: done in his career. Last year there was a disconnect,

353
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 4: and I've got to come back in here to the

354
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 4: coaching staff. You had a player who's been putting up

355
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 4: a thousand, thousand and thousand, and been putting up a thousand.

356
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: With some Jag quarterbacks.

357
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 4: So I look at that last year as a failure

358
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 4: of the use of the player overall, because the player's

359
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 4: resume shows you he can he can perform, and there

360
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 4: were times where we saw Brandon Cook's perform.

361
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 3: So I'm not as sold as.

362
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 4: I say some people talking about a wide receiver and

363
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 4: second to third round for the Cowboys, like, I really

364
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 4: don't think that's the issue to me. To me, the

365
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 4: issue still on the front lines. You you you can't

366
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 4: stop them running, okay, And what do we keep seeing

367
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 4: in these playoff games, these teams bullying them. I mean,

368
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 4: I go back to when Jason Garrett was here and

369
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 4: they went out to Los Angeles and the Coliseum and

370
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 4: they got two dudes rushed for one hundred and ten

371
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 4: on them. I mean, just this thing's been You've been

372
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 4: getting bullied up front for ages, San Francisco, Green Bay.

373
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 2: They just we're gonna run on you and cut your heart.

374
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 4: Out, Yeah, this is and and so that so, so

375
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 4: follow that up with your offensive line issues.

376
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,479
Speaker 3: Too, So we can talk all day long about a receiver.

377
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 4: To me, that's one of the last things I'm gonna

378
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 4: fix at address here. If I come back with Lamb

379
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 4: Cooks Ferguson, I'm gonna try to find somebody.

380
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 2: I got told bon I'm gonna try and.

381
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 4: Find somebody at that level because I think they've got

382
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 4: enough here.

383
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 2: You gotta fix these You got to fix it up

384
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 2: front now, I mean absolutely, I absolutely agree with you.

385
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 5: I think the conversation just evolved around gallop in the

386
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 5: way that the offense was last season. But when you

387
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 5: go back to the Green Bay Law, it was I

388
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 5: put that in the lap of the defense. I think

389
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 5: your defense lets you down in so many ways. The

390
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 5: ball game was out of control before you even could

391
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 5: get your offense in any rhythm. They had twenty one points.

392
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 5: So let's just I mean being realistic about it. I

393
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 5: don't think that a big time wide receiver is going

394
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 5: to fix all of our problems. I think a running

395
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 5: back is going to fix your problems. That's what that's

396
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 5: So let's let's let's take a break and hit on that.

397
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 4: Okay, let's take a break hit on that and I

398
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 4: We'll start with a free agent and somebody of the

399
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 4: Mavericks game hit me up with this Derrick Henry. So

400
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 4: when we come back, I want to get your thoughts

401
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 4: on Derrick Henry, who I did not know.

402
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 2: Liz it right here in Dallas for worth. So let's

403
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 2: talk about.

404
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 4: Roll time when we come back here and other running backs.

00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 5: She said, don't go picking on the little people. Pick

472
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 5: on somebody on size. Angel was walking the other ways.

473
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 5: She's not scared of that.

474
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 2: She was. She was like, you saw what her tweets said.

475
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 2: The person my status, she said, She said her ankle

476
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 2: was hurt. A person of her status, she said, person

477
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 2: of my status is not going to get involved in that.

478
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 2: I do not I do not indulge.

479
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 4: But the black dudes jumping out the stands, over the

480
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 4: scos table onto the court.

481
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 5: It's it beyond people sometimes what do we do? Saw

482
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 5: the women's basket, but he saw how big.

483
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 2: Hole girl was.

484
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 3: Over there and just saw how what just hers a

485
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 3: whole like there's a whole budget.

486
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 5: You know, sometimes you could do something so stupid and

487
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 5: when you do, it's just like I'm dumb.

488
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 2: Like I'm here now. I didn't think about it all.

489
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 5: The way through.

490
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 3: With the police officer right here too.

491
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 2: Man, the police was right on the man.

492
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 3: That's a tough go LSU South Carolina.

493
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 5: That was a great game, by the way, both times that.

494
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 2: Was overshadowed by that event.

495
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 5: And I'm tell you what, women's basketball is taking a turn.

496
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: Boy, Kayla Clark.

497
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 5: You don't want to give her the credit for the

498
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 5: magnetism and the eyes that she's brought to women's basketball.

499
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 5: But I think just with the way that South Carolina

500
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 5: Don Staley is doing an amazing job.

501
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 2: LSU was always there, man.

502
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 5: So I mean, I'm looking forward to that just as

503
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 5: much as I'm looking to looking forward to.

504
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:47,959
Speaker 2: The men the tournament.

505
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 5: It's gonna be a good tournament with the talent that

506
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 5: you had there, and especially teams that are allowed up

507
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 5: at the top too. So it's gonna be a good tournament.

508
00:23:55,720 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 4: Last year's final four at the American Airline Center in Dallas, uh,

509
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 4: I really feel fortunate to have gone to that. I

510
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 4: went to the practice they had, but the practice was full.

511
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 4: Iowa fans came out last year. That was my first

512
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 4: time just kind of seeing the whole Caitlyn Clark mania

513
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 4: of what that was South Carolina. The it was watching

514
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 4: down Staley reminded me of watching President.

515
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 2: Obama when he was running.

516
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 4: The way people treated her superstar and then of course

517
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 4: l SU all the fans who came out there for that.

518
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 2: It was a party. And poor Virginia Tech. How did

519
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 2: we get here? It was the ye you know, but

520
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 2: they got the brother head coach. Everybody good to see you. Yeah.

521
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 4: But but but that was that was a heck of

522
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 4: a heck of a run in Dallas and the second

523
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 4: time they've had the Final four of South Carolina ended

524
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 4: up winning it over Mississippi State a couple of years ago,

525
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 4: and missisps State had that great shot when they.

526
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 2: Beat you can't.

527
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 4: So I look forward to maybe four or five years

528
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 4: until it comes back to Dallas Fort Worth again, another

529
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 4: soul out arena.

530
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,479
Speaker 3: But yes, this final four here could be pretty good.

531
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 5: But I want to ask you this a sports journalist,

532
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,479
Speaker 5: You've seen a lot of great women basketball players and

533
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 5: watching Caitlyn Clark, and I know it's this argument on

534
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 5: social media that makes no sense because you go back

535
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 5: to Sheryl Swoops and Miller all of that. Right, she

536
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 5: is a phenomenal basketball player.

537
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 2: I saw swoops.

538
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 5: I saw swoops too, That's what I'm saying, Like, I mean,

539
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 5: you saw soweps.

540
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 2: What playing?

541
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 5: Oh, I think you said you saw I hated the

542
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 5: other day, No hat she was hating, but I didn't

543
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 5: see she was hating.

544
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 2: Busy and was wrong. But you know what a lot

545
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 2: too loud and wrong.

546
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:48,479
Speaker 5: She said, Kaitlyn Clark doesn't deserve whatever she gets because

547
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 5: the person's record that she was breaking only played four

548
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,439
Speaker 5: years and Kaitlyn Clark had a COVID year, so she

549
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 5: had more time, which is wrong.

550
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 2: Katevin Clark's in her fourth year. Yeah, she didn't have

551
00:25:59,520 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 2: a COVID.

552
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 5: Sometimes, I mean a lot of people, a lot of

553
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 5: people call themselves coming from off the top rope. And

554
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 5: Cheryl Schill, she's gonna be wrong about she can. She's

555
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 5: the one player that could be wrong, loud and wrong

556
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 5: because of the kind of player that she was. I'm

557
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 5: just saying when I watched her play, it's just her

558
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 5: game is so dynamic, h that it's just it's something

559
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 5: to watch. And so that's what That's what I was

560
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 5: asking you, man, what do you you know, what do

561
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 5: you think about her game?

562
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 4: What when I saw her play in the suits, hitting

563
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 4: these shots and just the way the crowd was, uh,

564
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 4: it was it was fun. That's the one thing I

565
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 4: think about just she was fun to watch and then

566
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 4: her teammates fent off of her. The whole thing was

567
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 4: just fun to watch. And I go back to the

568
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 4: skin pul virginny Tech, nothing against you, but all the

569
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 4: other three teams were fun to watch. The way South

570
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 4: Carolina play, the way they went about it. LSU would Angel,

571
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 4: I mean they I mean that in that championship game,

572
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 4: man and the girls come off the bench.

573
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 2: Man, she was nail in a couple of three. I

574
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 2: mean it was. It was really good basketball.

575
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 4: And the way all three South Carolina LSU, they all

576
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 4: had a Player of the Year, all three.

577
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 2: Of them had legit like this this star.

578
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 4: Right here and other players who fed off them, and

579
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 4: the coaches who understood how to use them. But home

580
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 4: girl was hitting some shots and was balling. I don't

581
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 4: have an issue. And this is what happens.

582
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 2: Man.

583
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 4: People want the sport to get more publicity, then there

584
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 4: becomes an issue of who gets more publicity than the

585
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 4: Angelice was at the podium talking the other day about

586
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 4: one of her teammates so and she said, hey, give

587
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:40,880

00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 3: I'm not here without her.

589
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,439
Speaker 2: It is what it is, man. And when you.

590
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 4: When you get a player like Caitlin Clark balling like

591
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 4: she's balling, and she's a fantastic storyline, and people have

592
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 4: written it's going to get out there, some people gonna

593
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 4: have issues. We don't like that, and we know what

594
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 4: some of the underlying issues are.

595
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:12,119

597
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 4: And when she gets drafted by a w NBA team,

598
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 4: whoever gets the number one pick, that team is going

599
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 4: to sell out. When when wherever she goes, when she

600
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,359

628
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 5: the cloud to us are falling forward, I think he

629
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 5: would have got three four more carriers. But I think

630
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 5: that's something you get when you when you have a

631
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 5: Dereck Henry, especially when you're trying to close a game out.

632
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 4: That's a commitment, and they made a commitment to him

633
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 4: in Tennessee. We are a run team. If I'm going

634
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 4: to sign Dereck Henry and pay the man, you have

635
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 4: to make that commitment.

636
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 2: How did it go for Tennessee? Mike's never made that commitment.

637
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: They would they wouldn't. They got fuller than us.

638
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 5: A championship win with Derrick Henry. No, no, I'm talking

639
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 5: about what version of Derrick Henry are we getting. I'm

640
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 5: not opposed to it, no matter what. When I look

641
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 5: at free agency and my and my expectations in free

642
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 5: agencies is low low, Okay, then all I'm saying is

643
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 5: we've we've gone out and we've gotten a Rico Dado

644
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 5: kind of guys in the past. How is that work?

645
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 5: Because we're not getting a difference maker at the position.

646
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 5: We went into the draft, we got deduced fun that

647
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 5: we still didn't figure out a way even how to

648
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 5: make that work throughout the season. It is incumbent upon

649
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 5: this team, this organization to find a way to get

650
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 5: a running game that is effected throughout the season. We

651
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 5: went eight nine games without one hundred yard rusher and

652
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 5: not even combined in situations, and we tried to figure

653
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 5: out ways and throwing the ball. I'm calling the sweat myself.

654
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 5: I'm just saying that there has to be a difference

655
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 5: in this running game because we were never a threat

656
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 5: at all. There were no eight man boxes. So are

657
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 5: you saying that Derrick Henry is a difference maker or not.

658
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 5: I don't know what version of Derrick Henry we're getting.

659
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 5: I'm saying over the last couple of years, I saw

660
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 5: the dimension returns on Derrick Henry, and I think if

661
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 5: Derrick Henry agrees to come here and say look, I'm

662
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 5: gonna come off the bench, I'm you know, it's gonna

663
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 5: be a thunder and lightning kind of deal.

664
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 2: Who's the thunder and who's the lightning? You know?

665
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 5: I just I want to and then how much of

666
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 5: this changes our offensive line philosophy because and it seemed

667
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 5: like to me we were doing those outside zones where

668
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 5: you know, this Tony Poler was getting out of space.

669
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 5: He was more effective on the outside, but then we

670
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 5: were using him as a battering ram in other situations.

671
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 5: So I mean, we never had any true flow to

672
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 5: our running game at all, and so I don't know

673
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 5: how Derrick Henry, how effective he can be in this offense.

674
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 2: That's it.

675
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 5: We do we have true flow to our renting game.

676
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 5: When we had Ezekiel Elliot and Tony Pollard the previous

677
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 5: year was it was it pretty much known that thunder

678
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 5: and lightning when you know what you were gonna get,

679
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 5: and you know what type of runs Ezekiel Elliot was

680
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 5: gonna get. And then when you had that change the

681
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 5: pace when you put a guy like Tony Pollard in,

682
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 5: we knew what our renting game is. Yes, yeah, I

683
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 5: think I think what a Derrick Henry dependent on the price.

684
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 5: I think everything to me is dependent on the price.

685
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 5: Like I'm not gonna go pay him Christian McCaffrey type.

686
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 5: So anyway, that's that's all I'm gonna I'm just the

687
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 5: thought of like, okay, we because we all talked about

688
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 5: red zone, like what do you do when you're on

689
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 5: the goal line? Like that is an instant solved to

690
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 5: the issue that you were talking about. And then also

691
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 5: Derrick Henry what we saw last year because he was

692
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 5: coming off of injury the year before. I believe, Yes,

693
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 5: it's the longer, the further the season got going, he

694
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 5: still got the speed to be able to break away

695
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 5: and get those fifty yard runs if he needs to.

696
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 5: But the most important part of it is when you

697
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 5: get into the second half, or you get into the

698
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 5: second part of that third quarter.

699
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 2: Has he punished you in the first and second to.

700
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 5: Where you could tell that the defensive linement and defensive

701
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 5: whoever don't want.

702
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 2: To tackle him.

703
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 5: That's consistent with a guy like Derrick Henry. It's consistent.

704
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 5: Has he had games to where you like he's not

705
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 5: doing much? Most people have except for Christian McCaffrey. But

706
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 5: I think Derrick Henry here as the thunder. I think

707
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 5: I don't think you lose with that one.

708
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 4: So if you pay for Derrick Henry is thunder.

709
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 3: What you just said, how do you how do we.

710
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 4: Reimagine the running game to take advantage of him?

711
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 2: Because this is.

712
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 4: Not something we've seen. Have we seen a bull like

713
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 4: this from Mike McCarthy. Had Ryan Clark year, I mean

714
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 4: Ryan Grant one year and on the Super Bowl season

715
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 4: then he got hurt, but we haven't really seen him

716
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 4: do that where they line up Dak just handed off

717
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 4: and didn go.

718
00:33:58,640 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 2: We haven't seen that.

719
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 4: If you get Derrick Henry, I'm imagining at this point

720
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 4: because McCarty s they want to Pollard back, so you're

721
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 4: saying goodbye to Pollo.

722
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 2: So we get Derrick Henry. Are you now going.

723
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 4: Into the draft on Day two or three looking for

724
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,720
Speaker 4: enough because you need to get someone.

725
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 3: Right, two compensatory picks.

726
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 4: So to me, I think you got to go back

727
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:23,919
Speaker 4: skip Pete gave them what they need.

728
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,399
Speaker 2: You need two backs. Yes, the goal line is.

729
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 4: An issue, but I just don't notice Derrick Henry fit

730
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 4: the kind of run game that we've.

731
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 2: Seen from Mike McCarthy. Biggest questions is it more Brandon Jacob.

732
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 2: I'm not Brandon Jacobs, Josh Jacobs for the Raiders.

733
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 4: Who's free that fits a little bit more of what

734
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:47,240
Speaker 4: they're going to do obviously costs is their Sequon Barkley

735
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 4: another guy that make you hear people talk about.

736
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 3: But my issue with Barley.

737
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,320
Speaker 2: Has been healthy is healthy that's the scary part. But

738
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 2: he proved last year.

739
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 5: He didn't he prove it last year that he can

740
00:34:58,440 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 5: stay healthy.

741
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 2: I think he's he's still end up getting banged up

742
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 2: last season, but yeah, he did. He did play a

743
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 2: healthier season, but he still ended up getting banged up.

744
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 2: Very DeMarco Murray is to me.

745
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 4: And when I think of DeMarco Murray, he was always

746
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 4: hurt and even the last year when he won Player

747
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 4: of the Year, he hurt his hand.

748
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 2: He was hurt.

749
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:18,279
Speaker 4: And so for me, Saquon had to win name and

750
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 4: last year everybody, everybody will take it up.

751
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: Go I could go soldier.

752
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 3: I mean that's because you're trying to get paid.

753
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,840
Speaker 4: I but his cost is of all the backs that

754
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 4: are out there, I think Saquon is going to be

755
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 4: the priceest and I just don't think the Cowboys are

756
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,799
Speaker 4: going to get into the point of pricing themselves. You

757
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,840
Speaker 4: paid ten million dollars for running back last year, and

758
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 4: I'm not mad at Tony Pollard.

759
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 2: They put that attack them, but you had a lot

760
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 2: of money.

761
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 4: Think about between Tony Pollard and Michael Gott that's twenty

762
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 4: three million dollars.

763
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 2: So.

764
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,320
Speaker 4: Of dudes who just did not give you what you needed.

765
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 4: I just don't see any I don't see it. First

766
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 4: of all, none of these guys getting ten million, I

767
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:03,439
Speaker 4: don't see it. If you get six if a group,

768
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 4: if these guys get six, that might be high.

769
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 3: I mean prices are dropping again here back.

770
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 5: To what you were talking about in this when we

771
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 5: were talking about Dak, and you know how everyone wants

772
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 5: to have a conversation about receiver. I think the way

773
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 5: that you preserve Dak is through the running game. It

774
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 5: has historically been the case, especially when you talk about Zeke.

775
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 5: And this is the part that we missed last season,

776
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,359
Speaker 5: and especially in those games where teams were just playing

777
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 5: hot and seek against US and San Francisco game. Look

778
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 5: no further than that, we just did not have an

779
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,320
Speaker 5: effective enough running game. Then let's go to the playoffs.

780
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 5: Look at the teams that had success in the playoffs.

781
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 5: What did they do. We always talk about Patrick Mahomes

782
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 5: and how great he is during the playoff time, but

783
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 5: it was Pacheco that really made defenses kind of have

784
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 5: to sit in that box because of how effective the

785
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,720
Speaker 5: running game was. We cannot negate this and start talking

786
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 5: like fantasy football owners.

787
00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 2: I know that's you, guys, but I'm just saying to

788
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 2: think that football.

789
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 5: Still isn't fundamentally played, you know, in between the tackles.

790
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 2: We were not good at that at all.

791
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 5: And that's argument deck hearing, especially when you're saying six, Yeah,

792
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 5: what I loved about what you said was in goal line.

793
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 5: And I've said I'll keep repeating you go back to

794
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 5: the Miami game. We win that game if you can

795
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 5: score on the goal line, Philadelphia, if you can score

796
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 5: on the goal line, and we just we were not

797
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 5: effective in that way. And to try and rewrite the

798
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 5: narrative that oh we just need that, No, we need

799
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,280
Speaker 5: other guys to contribute ceedee, Lamb was balling on a budget,

800
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,360
Speaker 5: all right, But then you you did not have a

801
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 5: running game that was effective.

802
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 4: And there was some misfires between Dak and CD and

803
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 4: in that game early on here they.

804
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 3: Were they had their own Yeah, yeah, they together were good.

805
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 4: But I agree, I go back to Dak and Lamar,

806
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 4: and I'm putting these two guys at the hip right

807
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 4: now in the terms of the playoffs because they basically

808
00:37:58,880 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 4: have the same playoff record.

809
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,400
Speaker 2: Neither team ran the ball effectively to help the quarter which.

810
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,359
Speaker 5: Is crazy for Baltimore. Though it's crazier for Baltimore than

811
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 5: it is for us.

812
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know what. I don't know what in

813
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 4: the world they came up with. During the week they

814
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 4: said this is gonna work. It was terrible. But I

815
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 4: just think if you're going to help them, that's the

816
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 4: best way to help. Tony Romo's best year was when

817
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 4: they gave a ball. DeMarco Murray, I agree with you,

818
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 4: and so yes, that has to be fixed. It's got

819
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 4: to be I don't know how they do it. You

820
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 4: got to fix the offensive line. Let's take our last

821
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 4: break here. Let's talk about the defensive line. I want

822
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 4: to give you a name of a free agent that

823
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 4: I think the Cowboys should really look at since Chris Jones.

824
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 2: Ended up going they was gonna sign Chris Jones movie,

825
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 2: but had a dream.

826
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:39,520

Speaker 5: That's true. No, no, no, that's other people to get an overplay.

898
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 5: It's some guys looking at that saying, oh the Chris Christian.

899
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 4: Wilkins, Christian Wilkins in miamis looking at Jops and just saying, oh,

902
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 5: Five now, Christian Williams, the Christian Wilkins. That's a good

903
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 5: player coming out of Clemson. I love him as a player,

904
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 5: but he he ain't that I mean, Aidan Hutchinson's gonna

905
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 5: be open with year. They be talking to him about

906
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:26,879
Speaker 5: it soon.

907
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 4: Hutchinson will be a guy that franchise, you know. But

908
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 4: but so for me, the guy I look at and

909
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 4: I just say, hey, hey, hey, Leonard Williams Seattle, that

910
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 4: was with the Giants before. There's there's a defensive lineman

911
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 4: that I that. You know, Hey, Jerry, go get that guy.

912
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 4: But Leonard Williams, I think I think you help your

913
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 4: football team.

914
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 3: No he's not. He's not Chris Jones, not Aaron Donald's

915
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 3: not Wilkins.

916
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 2: But play for sure.

917
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 4: He's a player, and that's what you need right now.

918
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 4: You need a player. Got to stop the run. They're

919
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 4: not Teams are just running on you. The big Fangio

920
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,320
Speaker 4: blueprint is still out here, is still effective, It's still working.

921
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 4: So guys, how do you feel about Leonard Williams.

922
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 2: I like it. I just.

923
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 5: The where I'm torn at is the most important part.

924
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,439
Speaker 5: Like I wanted to be interior. I know they still

925
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 5: gonna try to give Mazi. I know they're still gonna

926
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 5: try to give Maziri.

927
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 2: Hankins.

928
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 5: My fear is linebacker almost more than defensive defensive line

929
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 5: at this time, just because when you look at the

930
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 5: position and you look at Overshan who will be coming

931
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,359
Speaker 5: off a big time injury. You look at not having

932
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 5: Lane Vanderish, Michael Parsons is not playing linebacker. You're looking

933
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 5: at Marquis Bell going back to safety. What do you

934
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 5: have there outside of the mont Clark Yeah, that you

935
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,919
Speaker 5: feel comfortable about because when you look at defensive line,

936
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 5: for whatever we feel about Mazi and whatever, that's the

937
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,439
Speaker 5: first round pick who's going to the second year, who's

938
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 5: going to get an opportunity if you have to plug

939
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 5: in Hank's there and then you still have an opportunity

940
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 5: to figure it out. I'm not saying don't worry about

941
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 5: the defensive line, but when I look at the second level,

942
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,560
Speaker 5: that like, that's where I'm like, that's what we need

943
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,160
Speaker 5: to find out. Two or three guys I like Leonard Williams.

944
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,280
Speaker 5: I think that'll be an amazing addition to the squad.

945
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 5: But linebacker, to me is where I'm just I'm ultra

946
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,760
Speaker 5: focused on how do we got a guy.

947
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,399
Speaker 2: Got a dream? Have a dream guy?

948
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,319
Speaker 5: Yeah got look at I didn't need to see how

949
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,919
Speaker 5: Shack played last year? Was Shack Beary Checkberry. I didn't

950
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 5: see how he played last year. But I'm just looking

951
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 5: at names, and I'm saying what we needed the position.

952
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,279
Speaker 5: We need a leader at the position when somebody's gonna

953
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,919
Speaker 5: wear that green dot, somebody who has experience of being

954
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 5: in there on those type of teams where they know

955
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 5: what it looks like, know how to communicate that, and

956
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 5: I think we need a.

957
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 2: Guy like that I had.

958
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:43,839
Speaker 5: I didn't watch Shack, but that's just the name where

959
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 5: I'm saying well, I mean, I know what I saw

960
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 5: him do in years past. We've had plenty of opportunity

961
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 5: to go out and get guys. I think of the

962
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebackers Devin White and the other the

963
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 5: other guy. I mean they We've had opportunities to bring guys.

964
00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 5: In Chicago Bears traded a guy to Baltimore. It had

965
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 5: an opportunity to get him, we passed on him. We've

966
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 5: always had this mantra that we've believed in our guys.

967
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 5: But I'm with you, Danny, it's these are just blaring

968
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 5: needs at the linebacker position. And if you can bring

969
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 5: in a Pat Queen, a player like that that can solidify,

970
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 5: be that green dot guy, but also be a calming

971
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,280
Speaker 5: force in the middle of that defense, we haven't. I'm

972
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 5: with you. I think Leonard Williams is one of those

973
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 5: guys that could, you know, to gap run support type

974
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 5: of a guy. Look, Mazi, we're gonna give him grace

975
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,799
Speaker 5: from last season. He's got to come in and be

976
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 5: two times better than what he was last season. And

977
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 5: having a coach like Zimmer that and I didn't think

978
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:46,239
Speaker 5: that dan Quinn was pacifying him at all. But you know,

979
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 5: that Zimmer's gonna be all up in his stuff and

980
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,120
Speaker 5: he's gonna have to make some changes to his game.

981
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,799
Speaker 5: He can't be as easily moved as he was last

982
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 5: season and the guys around him, which were lighter defensive

983
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 5: line guys, And so I'm looking at zimmers defense and

984
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 5: I'm sure from what he understands, the priority has to

985
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 5: be trying to get that three tech, that big guy

986
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 5: one tech, that big guy in the middle that can

987
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 5: stop the run. But just as important as that, the

988
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 5: linebacker position. You had no one that could step up

989
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 5: and plug those gaps and stop the run. And you

990
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 5: can go back as far as Arizona to see that

991
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 5: it was linebacker play that really hurt us.

992
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 4: So just just pulled up just a couple of linebackers

993
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 4: of free Patrick Queen Baltimore Price Pro Bowler last year,

994
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 4: Miami's Jerome Baker, free agent linebacker out there, Carolina Panthers

995
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:46,279
Speaker 4: Frankie Louvu twelve and.

996
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 2: A half sacks the last two years.

997
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:53,959
Speaker 4: Jordan Brooks Seattle, twenty six years old for a first

998
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 4: round pick, Levonte David Tampa Bay.

999
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:57,439
Speaker 2: I'm not bad.

1000
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 5: I'm thinking about Leon, Yeah, him and Devin White was

1001
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 5: out there thirty four. Yeah, yeah, I mean no matter.

1002
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:08,479
Speaker 2: Okay.

1003
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 4: So so that is one. And this is the interesting

1004
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,839
Speaker 4: thing I would say about about the line back. This

1005
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:16,839
Speaker 4: is a this is an interesting Zimmer type call, Mike,

1006
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:18,240
Speaker 4: what what is it you need?

1007
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 2: You know, what what is it you want? What is

1008
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 2: it you need? I agree with you. In terms of

1009
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 2: looking at.

1010
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 4: A linebacker in free agency, my biggest thing is if

1011
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 4: I even want to help the linebacker, A guy like

1012
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 4: Leonard Williams.

1013
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 2: Is gonna help your linebacker absolutely, So I'm trying to.

1014
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,479
Speaker 4: Pluck that thing in there first, because if he's taking

1015
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:36,200
Speaker 4: up some space and taking up some tackles, and then

1016
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 4: put him next to somebody like, oh so Diggy's now

1017
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 4: now my linebacker, and go get get work done. You know,

1018
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,319
Speaker 4: ray Lewis was always able to do such great work

1019
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 4: because it was a Sam Adams and Tony Sarah Goose

1020
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 4: in front of me.

1021
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 2: He had guys with boom he could get there.

1022
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 4: So if I'm gonna help my linebacker, you know, I

1023
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 4: ain't gonna help my linebacker if I got slim fast

1024
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 4: MASI out there.

1025
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,000
Speaker 2: That's my point. You don't have no who you're helping.

1026
00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 2: You ain't got so.

1027
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 4: I think it's kind of as it's a two full problem.

1028
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 4: You know, it's not like it's not one or the other,

1029
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 4: it's yes and yes day.

1030
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 5: I mean, And that's a hard comparison when you say,

1031
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 5: I mean, because that whole defense was molded around the

1032
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 5: way that Ray played and you had the I mean,

1033
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 5: you couldn't get but a four hundred pound guy in

1034
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,960
Speaker 5: each one of those guys to allow Raid to scrape

1035
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 5: and run the way just our defense design wasn't like that,

1036
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:27,799
Speaker 5: and I just felt it.

1037
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,080
Speaker 2: It felt at times we got exposed.

1038
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 4: But now with Zim, it's going to be a different

1039
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 4: d just based off what you're saying, because what does

1040
00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 4: he have of Minnesota got big boys and so that's

1041
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 4: where he had your Kendricks is out there and bar

1042
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 4: those guys. So that's that's where it's going to be

1043
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 4: different than DQ. And that part of it is where

1044
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 4: I think free agency has to play a part. You

1045
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:48,719
Speaker 4: just can't wait on the draft. Some of these guys

1046
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 4: you got to get in here, plug him in. Maybe

1047
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 4: there's a barget basement prices like Lindel Joseph is available

1048
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,359
Speaker 4: played for Mike. Yes he's older, but that's where I'm

1049
00:48:58,360 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 4: going to be very interested to see where they go

1050
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 4: and how they decide to get so.

1051
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:04,320
Speaker 2: Much a free agency.

1052
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 4: To make it work has to be about how do

1053
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,279
Speaker 4: you use the player? People want to just look at

1054
00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 4: a player, now, how does that player use how does

1055
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 4: that coach use him?

1056
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 2: So I kind of go back to dere Derek Henry

1057
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 2: or Mike Mike McCarthy.

1058
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 4: Is he gonna use him the way you're gonna come

1059
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 4: and say, oh my gosh, you got Derrick Henry?

1060
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 2: Are you using right just as well? And I know

1061
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 2: your frustration. Okay, Brandon Cooks.

1062
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 4: Was Brandon Cooks used the way Brandon Cooks has been

1063
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 4: using his screer? No, that's the problem with all free agencies.

1064
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,120
Speaker 4: Hey we signed so and so and such and such. Yeah,

1065
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,359
Speaker 4: but he ain't doing what he used to do. That's

1066
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 4: what you gotta do. So for Mike Zimmer, as he

1067
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,440
Speaker 4: looks at this defense, it's not what DQ's running.

1068
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,400
Speaker 2: How do they give Mike the pieces?

1069
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 4: And we know Mike likes big defensive lineman because he's

1070
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 4: gonna try to stop them.

1071
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,719
Speaker 5: And you may lose guys like Doriance Armstrong also a

1072
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,399
Speaker 5: guy that was a tweeter that gave you some flexibility,

1073
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 5: and so I mean it's still there's still a lot

1074
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 5: of movie pieces, so you may be feeling these gaps

1075
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 5: solely based off of necessity.

1076
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 2: It's gonna be work. It's gonna be some work.

1077
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a lot of fun as they try

1078
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 4: to figure out these pieces. And that's why we we

1079
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,040
Speaker 4: cover this and it's gonna be a great time. So

1080
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:15,439
Speaker 4: everybody enjoyed the league year coming up and what these

1081
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,840

00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:18,920
