1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: Good morning, Jerry. How you doing, Sean r J? I'm

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: doing great. Merry Christmas. I mean, how can you get

3
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,799
Speaker 1: better than that performance on Sunday night? You got the

4
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: news beforehand that you guys won the division, and then

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: a performance that all of us were looking for, especially offensively. Jerry,

6
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: just recap that game for us through your eyes. Well,

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: I didn't see it coming. We stayed looking for it

8
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: and that could be. But boy, a game that you

9
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: play that well on in all three phases. And it's

10
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: been said many times over the last couple of days,

11
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: but I don't recall one that we have had that

12
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,319
Speaker 1: kind of effort or that kind of execution across all

13
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: three phases. I think it came against a team that

14
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: certainly we recognize that teams have challenges day, but everybody

15
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: has challenges. But there's still some good things. There's good

16
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: things about the Washington team that to give credibility to

17
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: how we were playing out there Sunday night. Jerry, what

18
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: do you think led to that that that explosion and

19
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: difference offensively with Dak and the way he was playing

20
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: compared to some of the struggles of the previous six weeks.

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 1: What was the difference well, I think first of all,

22
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 1: we got it going early. That was and really, when

23
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: you think about it, we were three and out on

24
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: our first series, so you say, well, you had to

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: come back from that. But that early success that we

26
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: had with that big defensive play with Diggs, I think

27
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: really set a tone for the games. I basically sit

28
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: down with coaching, we go over what we think after

29
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: the week's work, the best way to approach the game.

30
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: And one of the things that stands out for me

31
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: is that he really wanted to have a come at

32
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: him uptick uptick tempo, really no huddle, step up, really

33
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: coming at him fast and coming at him. If we

34
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: can keep those drives going, coming at him with a

35
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: lot of quantity, so to speak, and bol we did that,

36
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: and so we right on Q there. I think a

37
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: lot of it just has to do with catching those

38
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 1: balls and making those plays that seemed to have a

39
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 1: few times in the weeks before had eluded us. We

40
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: got him here Sunday night. And Jerry, you won two

41
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: of your titles against a team who was famous for

42
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: no huddle in the Buffalo Bills back in the nineties.

43
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: How often do you think you guys can stick with

44
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: it can it be more of a permanent thing or

45
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: it's just going to go on a case by case

46
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: basis with that up tempo to get Dak in your

47
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: guys in rhythm, Well, I think we've got to look

48
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: at the circumstances there's you can see that our team

49
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: is coordinated in a position to do the up tempo thing.

50
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,839
Speaker 1: I think we've got the depth to do it. It's

51
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: not so much a depth thing on offense as much

52
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: as it is on defense. Boy, our defensive team has

53
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: really got to be able to manage a lot of snaps.

54
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: We do. We've got a great rotation going on out

55
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: there and those front guys and that's very, very important.

56
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: All those guys stayed within a twenty five count of

57
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: snaps and that's an amazing thing for those front guys

58
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: because they expend a lot of energy making those plays,

59
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: and if you can get a rotation going, you can

60
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: have a lot of energy out there all the time. Zara,

61
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: you had said previously that it would be fair to

62
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: say that Dak Prescott may have been in a slump

63
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: based on what you saw on Sunday Night Football. What

64
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: to you was best about his performance and him coming

65
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: out of that soul called slump that he was in

66
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: and what that means for him going forward for the

67
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: rest of the season. What slump? Yeah, exactly exactly, Well,

68
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: of course, Uh, I think the execution says it all.

69
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: And his ability to we just had him going to

70
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: play calling was outstanding. The execution, his reads, his his

71
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: ability to get the ball off, get his feed right,

72
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 1: make those throws, all of that was worked. Uh. It

73
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: it in effect. Uh. I don't know if it opened

74
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: it up the run game or if the run game

75
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: again impacts h keeping it keeping it solid for the

76
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: passing game. But we got the balance going and U

77
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: we were able to really on a variety of ways

78
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: move that football. And we've talked about the numbers of

79
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: receivers that were involved in the game, but we got

80
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: some great runs that involved our offensive line pulling a lot.

81
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 1: To you, it was just obvious to everybody how they

82
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: were able to do. Some of the offensive line able

83
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,559
Speaker 1: to get out in front of those carriers and open

84
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: up get some blocks, open up some holes. All of

85
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: that just set the other part of it up. Jerry

86
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: Jones with us every Tuesday here on Sean and rj

87
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: Um one oh five three. The fan. Amari made some

88
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: headlines on our radio station saying, Hey, I'd like to

89
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: be more involved in third down and red zone, and

90
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: it seemed like there was a concerted effort to get

91
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: him involved with that early production. What can you say

92
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: about that, Jerry, the effect it had on the team,

93
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: in your reaction to Amar's comments and the way it

94
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: played out Sunday. Understand the comments. I appreciate them, we

95
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: all do. And boy, when he's involved again, it opens

96
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: him up. He's a mess and he can really Uh

97
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: he's just as instinctive with the skill and size to

98
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,479
Speaker 1: run routes as I've ever seen as a receiver. And

99
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 1: so when he when when the opposition realizes that he's

100
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: a very integral part of what's happening out there in

101
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: a game, whether it be go tows or what, then

102
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: it compromises that defense. You kids can't let him get

103
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: the ball a lot, and especially get it in good

104
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: situations because he will go to the house. And so

105
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: that just opens it up for the other guys. Those

106
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: receivers were really on point on running their routes. They

107
00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: were proper distances, making the proper cuts at not only

108
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: causes them to potentially be opened better, but it opens

109
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: up for the other receivers, gives Dack a lot of

110
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: opportunity to have a good death if you will, choice

111
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: of where to go with the ball. That just messes

112
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: that defense up tremendously. And every week, k and see

113
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: as you try to guess the next different cowboy to

114
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: score a touchdown, and you got up to nineteen nineteen

115
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: different players a franchise record have now scored touchdowns for

116
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: you all, So go all nineteen jerk see if you

117
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: can name them all you want to. You want to,

118
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: basically me start with the offensive layman first and try

119
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: to work back. But you want to know how to

120
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: have some premier receivers. It's always been said that you

121
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: if you've got more than two, you've got you a

122
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: problem because you don't have enough balls to go around. Well,

123
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: the anecdote to that is just get the to that

124
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: many receivers and get it in the hands of that

125
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: many And that's the perfect way to have harmony on

126
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: a football team. When it comes to the real makeup

127
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: of the team, everybody feeling good about it. I don't

128
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: know that I've been around a team that has any

129
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: more just common with good attitude about the success of

130
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: the other guy than this team. They really are the

131
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: definition of a team at this point. Now, the real

132
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: question leading up to that was would how would offensive

133
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: lineman Jerry Jones have handled the Terrence Steele passing play

134
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: in the end zone? Well, I got mine when I

135
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: was before I became the guard. I was the fullback,

136
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: and the thing that made me the sickest when I

137
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: ultimately ended up with guard was well, first of all,

138
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: those practices are held a lot different. It's one thing

139
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: to be down there day in and day out, but yeah,

140
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: it's another thing to be up there running pass routes

141
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: and practicing your heisman run, and so that's a different world.

142
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: I ought not to call them both the same game

143
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: football between a lineman and a back, and I'm not

144
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: demeaning a back at all. It's just those laeman good

145
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: catch hell in there. But so it's a pleasure to

146
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: get that football, make no mistake about it. And I

147
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: was just elated. I know there was several around the

148
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: league that want to say several two or three that

149
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: we're in it toward the lineman getting a score, getting

150
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: a touchdown, getting an interception, and that's an exciting time.

151
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: Everybody understands these things are won by the big boys

152
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: up front. Speaking of those big boys up front and

153
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: Jerry Tyrant Smith and his availability coming into the game

154
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: against Arizona. Has the plan been to get him prepared

155
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: to be able to play on Sunday afternoon against Arizona.

156
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: What that will look like going forward for him? Well,

157
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: I don't call it a plan. I just call it

158
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 1: a basically assessment of how he's been doing right up

159
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: until let's say the day before the game or game day,

160
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 1: and how he's progressing. In his particular case, we would

161
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: like to be able to have things like judgment that

162
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: would say, you know, we keep him off of it today.

163
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: That means we'll have him all the way through anything

164
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 1: we might do in the playoffs. It's not quite the

165
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: way it works, but he wasn't quite ready or he

166
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: would have been out there Sunday, and hopefully he'll be

167
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: at that point this week. He was close enough that

168
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: that's a pretty good bet that you could see tying

169
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: out there to surprise me if he's not out there

170
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: this week. Jerry Jones here, I want to fire through

171
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 1: the fan. What did you think of the football team

172
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: copying your benches your trend center in many ways, but

173
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 1: didn't know you're a sideline trend setter with visiting team benches.

174
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: What did you think of that move and that big

175
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 1: fight that went viral between their defensive lineman Sunday night.

176
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: Well again, number one, the bench. Uh those benches, Uh,

177
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: I just soon keep them if we can lock them

178
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: down out there and maybe keep them there permanent. That's

179
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: not that's not going to be able to happen. And

180
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: uh Snyder's a good friend and uh so, uh so

181
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: be it. We've had good luck with those benches. But

182
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: then the ben bench story has been kind of one

183
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: that makes me smile a little bit. Uh. The other

184
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: part of it is, uh, look, that's that's like brothers.

185
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: It's all I've got to say. And the guys get

186
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 1: their stuff, but on the team with each other get competitive.

187
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: They were feeling the competition, they were feeling the way

188
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 1: the game was going. And I chalk it off to that.

189
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: I don't I don't make a lot of that at all.

190
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: I don't Jerry, when when you when you have I mean,

191
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: I don't know how to say when you destroy a

192
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: team like that and you're tight with the other owner.

193
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: Is it like friends where you you send a little

194
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: tax a trash talker? Do you give it a few

195
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: days or a few weeks or the next owner's meeting. Well,

196
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: I've never done it. I've never first of all, had

197
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: this type that, this type situation and that kind of

198
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: ball game. But I've in general would just leave it

199
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: be and just not to allude to it or give

200
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: it to make it up topic point when you're next

201
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: time you visit. Now, have you had someone do it

202
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: to you where you are like, this is way too early.

203
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: Don't be doing that to me. It's still too raw

204
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: with a loss as someone else done it to you. No,

205
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: not at all. The one that I like to tell

206
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: is the one I think I've mentioned recently was we

207
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: were going to a rough spell and another owner, not

208
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: one that had beaten us, but another owner called and said, Joyson,

209
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: I know you just might not be welcome with would

210
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: you like some advice? I thought, old shit, here we go.

211
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: Well I listened real closely, and he said, drink a lot. Yes,

212
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones doing us right here on one or five

213
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: through the fan on Sean and r J. Jerry open.

214
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: The window has been opened earlier this year for NFL

215
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: teams without head coaches to begin interviewing potential head coaching candidates.

216
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: And you have two coordinators who have had their names

217
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: mentioned among potentially being head coaches going into next year

218
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: with Kellen Moore and Dan Quinn. What is your approach

219
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,839
Speaker 1: when names of your coordinators come up and what that

220
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: means for those coordinators and how you approach what that

221
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: means going for them As far as the coaching searchers

222
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: are concerned, I would want them to go ahead and

223
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: have any visits they might want and leave it at that.

224
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 1: I would be confident and have headed and they experienced

225
00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: it many many times, and confident that there might is

226
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: on our team and the opportunity we've got. It's in

227
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:09,359
Speaker 1: everybody's best interest to win. When you're in this situation,

228
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: it's in everybody's best interest for the team that you're

229
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: coaching to be winning and executing. As a matter of fact,

230
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: that people look at that when they are looking at

231
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: coaches and see how they stood stood and we're steady

232
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: and steadfast relative to their assignment at hand, which is

233
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: to win right now beat their zone the Cardinals. No

234
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: matter what you're doing with your thoughts of the future.

235
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: I can tell you right now anybody I know that

236
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: have had success, and I'm not just talking about coaches.

237
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: You've got to be able to think about more than

238
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: one thing, and if you that's a big part of it,

239
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: you've got to be able to handle both. Have you

240
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: received a lot of interest or calls on either one

241
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: throughout the league? Again, I wouldn't, but that is of

242
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: very guarded information and you're not allowed to talk about that, Jerry.

243
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: Let's give credit to the main guy in charge. Because

244
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: we do talk about Callum, we do talk about Quinn,

245
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 1: we talk about Fossil. Give the credit to Mike McCarthy

246
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: that he deserves through your eyes for this NFC East Championship. Oh,

247
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: I think Mike has had a To say that he

248
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: hasn't had the kind of input would be a complete

249
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: distortion of what has happened. His time that he spent

250
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: in all the aspects of this team, and not just time,

251
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: but what he brings to the table has been the

252
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: difference maker. He is the difference maker and that needs

253
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: to be recognized and I'm really proud for him and

254
00:15:54,640 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: proud of him, Jerry. Last thing Chris Mortenson's said that

255
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: the NFL and the NFLPA are aware of the new

256
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: CDC recommendations, and it's really fluid and it seems like

257
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: it changes every hour. Where do things stand now in

258
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: terms of the protocols in the league or where you

259
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 1: guys may adjust it coming up here, Well, we're at

260
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 1: the point right now that I agree with and we're

261
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: basically generally, without getting in the weeds with you, it's

262
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: paying a lot of attention to the symptoms, not as

263
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: much attention to the actual factual test result. Mainly symptoms.

264
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: I think we're recognizing that you can have test results

265
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 1: and not be a threat to anybody, including yourself that

266
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: aren't reflected in the test result. The key thing is

267
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: that you're not really the principle is that you're really

268
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: not impacting anything if you aren't showing symptoms. Now, what's

269
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: wrong with all of this is that nobody knows. Nobody knows,

270
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: But you've got to have some system in place that

271
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: allows the teams to relative to each other, be on

272
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:20,199
Speaker 1: the same page, and so you don't have one team

273
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 1: being competitively punished by a rule that probably isn't really

274
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: reflective of where the danger is with the COVID and

275
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: now that's a mouthful and it's hard to say this

276
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: stuff without creating several interpretations. I like where we are today.

277
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 1: It allows us to be, in my mind, show common

278
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:48,239
Speaker 1: sense and how to have our players involved in a

279
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: very safe way. And Jerry final thing. Coach McCarthy said,

280
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 1: the energy Sunday night was probably the best of the

281
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 1: entire season. What did you think of the fans at

282
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: at and T and what do you want to say

283
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: to them moving forward with this Cardinals rematch? Well, they

284
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: made a huge They made a huge difference. Say how

285
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: in the world a little game like that can they

286
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: make a difference. When Diggs made that interception that ninety

287
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: something thousand people, it was like an electric charge went

288
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: into our for our Dallas Cowboys and it was just magnificent.

289
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 1: But it shows me that of course it's there. It's

290
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,479
Speaker 1: there in a big way. And when you put that

291
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:37,159
Speaker 1: kind of crowds and of course we're the leading team

292
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: for attendance in the NFL, and when you put that

293
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: kind of crowd and you put that kind of game

294
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 1: in front of them, they're they're eating the popcorn boxes.

295
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 1: Forget the popcorn. And so it was an exciting time

296
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: It fired me up and I wouldn't have taken anything

297
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 1: for not have been there. Jerry, congratulations, that was an

298
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: awesome performance. We're really excited and looking forward to Sunday

299
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: in Arlington. Thank you for your time. Let's let's get

300
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,239
Speaker 1: what a year we're having and let's have us us

301
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: have a big week as we get into this game. Getst. Arizona,

302
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:18,360
Speaker 1: big game, big game for us, big game for our future. Here, yes, sir,

303
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: thank you, Thank you, guys,
