00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: on their bye week this week, so don't have an

37
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: opportunity to win or lose. They get the chance to

38
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: sit home like the rest of us and watch the NFL.

39
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: I mean week number nine. This week, Nate I want

40
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: to start with you, though, sir. We are at the

41
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: halfway point of this season, Cowboys six and two, second

42
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: overall in the NFC East, one of the best teams

43
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Give me your assessment on the first

44
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: half of this season and what stood out to you

45
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: most about this Cowboys. It's been amazing. It's been amazing

46
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: because we're all gonna say what we saw against Tamford.

47
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: We hey, it was over now, it's been amazing. But

48
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: what I want to say, Drew, what I want to

49
00:02:55,120 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: say chopping Kevin is the consistency of the coach. Besides

50
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: that one time you saw him on TV when he

51
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 1: asked them, uh, the train on TV like his dad

52
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: and the d like he like. Oh after that he

53
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: went to work. Yeah, he adjusted his way, his offensive

54
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: coordinator thought he he gave his defensive coordinator a little

55
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: bit of ball control and they've been winning ever since.

56
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 1: But you know, and so now QB one back were rolling.

57
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: It's been amazing. Man. Chad talked to me about the

58
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: biggest difference you've seen from this team from last year

59
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: that's gotten them to this point at six and two.

60
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not making the little mistakes you know,

61
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: they're not beating themselves. That's the key. When you have

62
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: a backup quarterback playing for half a year or in

63
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: this case, you know, been but sixty percent of the season. Yeah,

64
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: you know, you can't make mistakes and consistently win games.

65
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: And they haven't. They haven't beaten themselves. I was like

66
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: a C student. They're they're they're getting a's right across

67
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: the board. It's it's it's fun to watch because you know,

68
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: all I know is since that, since your team's Nate,

69
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of bad luck and and and

70
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: they've made mistakes themselves, right, And it just feels like

71
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: for the first time like everything's kind of falling their

72
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: way and that you need that. You know, you need

73
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: a little luck along the way if you're gonna win.

74
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: That's right, and they've got it right now. So far

75
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,039
Speaker 1: as you're talking to me about this wide receiver Group

76
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 1: eighty eight club member Ceedee Lamb emerging as a number

77
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: one wide receiver, if you were to talk to him,

78
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: just like you did at that one time where y'all

79
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: sat and Hatch of Holt Lane had a good time,

80
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 1: but yourself and Michael, what advice would you give to

81
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: ceedee lamb about what he needs to do going forward

82
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: for the rest of this season. Here, well, you know,

83
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: I don't watch it as closely that as I used to.

84
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: You know, for the older you get further away from

85
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: the game you get. But looking at CD, I don't

86
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: I don't see him doing anything he needs to do.

87
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 1: Just keep doing what he's doing. Every time he gets

88
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: the opportunity. He seems to be making plays. What he

89
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: had five for seventy seven Saturday, I mean Sunday. And

90
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: you know, back in the day Tony Hill, if we

91
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: had that, we be happy. I'd be like, oh man,

92
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: we're we're rolling. But you know, nowadays, you know, those

93
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 1: numbers seem pedestrian to compared to uh what Amari Cooper's numbers. Yeah, yes, so,

94
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: but you know CD, you know, as long as they

95
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: keep using him, I think he'll continue to step up.

96
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: And I you know, everybody talk about the receiving core,

97
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: I think they're all right gallops you know coming through

98
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: he's he's feeling it now. And as you get closer, uh,

99
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: further into the season, you know, he'll have more confidence

100
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: and Dak will have more confidence to go then and

101
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: more will have more confidence to call his number. Schultz

102
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: is healthy. You see Dak how he uses him. So

103
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: that's all part of the receiving group. Uh. I didn't

104
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: see Noah Browns in his stats as he hurt. Yeah, okay,

105
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 1: but he gets healthy and they got they got a

106
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 1: good core. I'm glad they didn't get that kid coming

107
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: out of Houston. Yea, all, I don't like his attitude.

108
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: If there's a reason he goes from team to team,

109
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: all right, and it's not his ability, So let's not

110
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: you know, bring a guy like Ada and coach through

111
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: the infect the team in a negative way. So but CD,

112
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: just keep doing what you're doing. Man, if you need

113
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: any help, call the regional ad. All you following the

114
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: game a little more close to what you give yourself

115
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: credit for, Nate, When you look at this team now

116
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: on there bye week, what's a player's mentality on a

117
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: bye week? Not just getting you know, the rest and

118
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: the recovery, but what are you doing during this time

119
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: to get away from the game a little bit and

120
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: try to recover a little bit before you get ready

121
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: for this is the deal. They didn't have a bye week.

122
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: We had a bye week that was controlled by your coach.

123
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: Jimmy only gave us a day here Friday at three o'clock.

124
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: We had to be back Monday morning, so we had Sunday, Saturday,

125
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: and Sunday. Now it's mandatory middlem four days. But these guys,

126
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: unlike me, now there there they they they understand taking

127
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: care of their bodies coming back, stand in shape. You

128
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: you've never seen these guys fall out out to a

129
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: bye week. They have always coming back and had some

130
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: type of wind history and be checked the history. But

131
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: now if that had been me, Drew, I mean, it's

132
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: like the local doughnut shop all you can eat we had.

133
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: We had Michael Michael on the show today. We asked

134
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: him what he did to her in his bye week,

135
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: and they said, you don't want to know. That's right

136
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: the shop. What do you want to see coming out

137
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: of the bye week once this team returns and the

138
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: number one thing for you that's gonna be on your

139
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: radar when the Cowboys get back on the field, when

140
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,239
Speaker 1: they take on Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers

141
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: on the road. Well, I want to I was a

142
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: little worried about Mica, whether he's healthy or you know,

143
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: you kind of hit that wall at some point or

144
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: I was worried about that. So I want to see

145
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: the health, but I just want to see to lose

146
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: their edge. You know, like a lot of times I

147
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: wonder if you go to a bye week on a

148
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: hot streak, is that bad? You know? Do you lose

149
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: your edge? If you know, if you're if you're struggling,

150
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: maybe the bye week's good for you. But you go

151
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 1: into the Bay and we've seen a lot of teams

152
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: go the week before the bye and they put up

153
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: a stinker, right and this team didn't do that, which

154
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: I think is a good sign. But I just want

155
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: to see them not lose the edge they've had because

156
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: they've played with they've played physical football, they played football

157
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: that's wide open, and they've been able to win multiple

158
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: different ways. I just don't want to see to lose

159
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: that edge, say, Chop, that's the thing I noticed the

160
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: most they played physical football. They're getting after they are

161
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: playing football the way it's supposed to be played, the

162
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: way Cowboys football is supposed to be played, and it

163
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: is a physical game out there. They better with the

164
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: opponents when they come in here or we go there,

165
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: they better button their kins straps up because we're bringing it,

166
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: and that defensive line is sitting at pace for the

167
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: rest of the defense and you see the results. Speaking

168
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: of physical football, the Dallas Cowboys ran for over two

169
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: hundred yards on Sunday against the Chicago Bears. Tony Polar

170
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: fourteen carries a buck thirty one nine point four yards

171
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 1: per carry. That physical football and that nature that you've

172
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: got Ezekiel Elliott, who's dealing with a little bit of

173
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: a knee injury right now, Drew. If you're Mike McCarthy

174
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 1: and you've got these two backs, how are you handling

175
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: the distribution between Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard once you

176
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: get back onto the field when you take on the Packers,

177
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: just the way they've been doing it. Apparently the guys

178
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: get along with each other. That's the biggest part of it.

179
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: You know, after Butch Johnson was trying to take my job,

180
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: our friendship kind of split retired. The friendship came back. Yeah,

181
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: but the guys seemed to be okay with it. And

182
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 1: you know, running back is that position now in the

183
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: NFL where you need two guys. You know, you need

184
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: two producers there, and not just because of injuries, but

185
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: because you put the pressure you put on the defense.

186
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: There are two different type of running backs, so there's

187
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: two different ways you have to prepare for them. And

188
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: that's good for the offense. And so when they see Zeke,

189
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: I'm in there thinking of one thing, Well, let's do

190
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: something else. Let's surpribe to him with something different. Same

191
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: thing with with Pollard. So as long as they get

192
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: along and there's no issues between them, keep using them

193
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: like you're using them. This This is what I see.

194
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: Every guy that knows football that I've listened to said

195
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: the same thing. He said, said the same thing I said,

196
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: say the same thing, chop he said, this morning. What

197
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: what is the issue here? What is what? What is

198
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 1: the issue? The issue is one thing. Zeke makes twelve

199
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: million dollars. Okay, but if you give Tony Pollock twenty

200
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: five carries touches a game for the next nine games,

201
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 1: I promise you we'll be talking about another guy next

202
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: year saying, hey, he's not the same guy, but remember

203
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: you wanted him to have all these extra games. Zeke

204
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: did this for four years straight. So people a people

205
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: aboutter understand the game. They've been under stand the game.

206
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: But these two guys bring to this game. This guy

207
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: had a chance to the ball this fast game twenty

208
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: five times. They only gave it to him fourteen. That's

209
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: because that's what he is. That's yeah, that's what they

210
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: want to close. If they told us this past week

211
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: what his role is gonna be, there was no Zeke

212
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: and he still only got fourteen carries. Yeah, he's never

213
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: had more than what seventeen in the game, even in college.

214
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: That's right. And it doesn't mean that he can't do

215
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five every now. And that doesn't mean that

216
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: to give n you every time. Yea. Ever, if you

217
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: give him twenty five carries a game like he's over

218
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: the next nine games, you may never see the same

219
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: guy again. That's in effective the way they're using, thank you,

220
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 1: you know. And when he comes in, it's a surprise

221
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: defense and now they don't know where's it gonna go,

222
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: what's he gonna do? And you got the receiving ability,

223
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 1: the running ability, and when he hits that hole, I mean,

224
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: he reminds me of doors set because Dot got in

225
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: that whole back he was gone, gone, all right. He

226
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: got that little slipper of daylight, you know, that daylight,

227
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: that little daylight and then the house. Everybody always trying

228
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 1: to tell me about this. But one thing this office

229
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: Ryan did this week that I hadn't saw. They gave

230
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: him the point of attack entrance. They gave him a

231
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: cutback entrance, and they gave him that deep cutback. A

232
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: lot of people can't get to that deep cutback. Man.

233
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: He came back one time when it was an eight

234
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: man front. But he even fully safety because he went

235
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: up into that point of attack and dropped all the

236
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: way back, left that dude hanging. And so the Office

237
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 1: of Line really put it on this week. Man, go back.

238
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: All these people are here to talk about when they

239
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: call your show. Hey, man, I look at that All

240
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: twenty two? Are you really? You really? Nate can't watch

00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: but I don't know what I'm watching. What you watch.

244
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,599
Speaker 1: You can see it where that hole is open and

245
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: Tony Powder running through for fifty four. Nice to hear

246
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: Nate explain that receiver we don't care about. He's like,

247
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: I'm down and I'm Cardio, but you do knew how

248
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: to open this in his zone? Yeah, I got your time, yea.

249
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 1: Now I want to ask you before we go to break,

250
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: how fun is it you block for running backs like

251
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott and Tony pot were just celebrated the twenty

252
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: year anniversary of Emma Smith breaking Walter Payton's all time

253
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: rushing record there at at and T statum. How much

254
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: fun is it to block for guys like that, knowing

255
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: anytime they get the ball in their hands that's potentially

256
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: hit a home run like Polic It's just sweet, man.

257
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 1: And the thing about it, you don't know when it's

258
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: happening because as office linement, you gotta work mentality. You know,

259
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 1: every every time you're looking at this dude who's athletically

260
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 1: more gifted than you nine times out of ten. So

261
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: you just work it. You just working. I say, you

262
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: hit the crowd you like you know what in a pass?

263
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 1: So you know something, man and Emma used to come

264
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: out of some things. Man, because we never knew Emma Speed,

265
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: We never knew who elucive he will us and so

266
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: we saw I don't fit. We know about Tony Poller,

267
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: we know how devil state he is. We know that

268
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 1: Zeke is a smudge hamlet you so Wow, it's it's

269
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 1: a good fit of men. Almost made me lose a

270
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: pound right here. Shot. What does that do to a

271
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: confidence for a football team? When you see Pollock running

272
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: the way that he is, knowing that anytime he gets

273
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands he could go for sixty

274
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: and take it to the house. It's just another weapon. Yeah,

275
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 1: it's just it's it's what it is. It's another guy

276
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: you have. I mean, you can throw the ball to CD,

277
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: or you go downfield of gallop or as we saw

278
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: this week, which we haven't seen a lot in the

279
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: in recent time, is is Dak using his feet too? Uh?

280
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: You know weapons a little bit. I mean the best

281
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: third and four on this team might be him, you know,

282
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: just taking it and doing something with it, right r Wow,

283
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: it's just another it's another Uh, it's another bullet they've got.

284
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: And and that's that's what you know. Poler does that,

285
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: and and and so to Zeke, I means, like to me,

286
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: Zeke still the best third and one guy you got. Um,

287
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: So they're they're they're just loaded wet weapons right now. Hey, guys,

288
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: I used to run that when I'm a quarterback at Tulsa.

289
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: I used to run that RPO. Yeah, you know, but

290
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: I'd always give it to the back. Okay, I see

00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: the d n crassed. Now I'm gonna go hand and

Speaker 1: Wednesday evening here live at the Star in Fisco at

318
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 1: the Cowboys Club. Gentlemen, I wanted you to think about

319
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: this defense as we have this conversation now, a defense

320
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: as leading the NFL and sax Micah Parsons looking like

321
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: defensive Player of the Year early on this year. Choppy,

322
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: how good has this defense been based on what you've

323
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 1: seen in the value because I know you're diving into

324
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 1: all that twenty two when you're not when you know,

325
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: watching UKNS play baseball and whatnot. What's you've seen on

326
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,400
Speaker 1: film with this defense so far this year? I mean

327
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: it all starts to starting on front. I mean the

328
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,919
Speaker 1: whole to me, everything is based right now with this

329
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: team up the pass rush, they were getting to the quarterback.

330
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 1: They're putting the quarterback back on their heels. They're allowing

331
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: the secondary to make plays. They're allowing the other quarterback

332
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: to make bad throws, which is causing the turnovers, right,

333
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: and they may not be getting the turnovers at the

334
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: same rate they were last year. That was never gonna happen,

335
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: right now, Digs was never gonna get eleven picks again.

336
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 1: That's just like that. That's that's all. That's a career year, right,

337
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: So you couldn't expect that. So you needed the front

338
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,479
Speaker 1: to get to the quarterback and they have. And you know,

339
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: the only thing they can't do is stop the run.

340
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: And in today's NFL when nobody runs, I mean, okay,

341
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 1: I'm I'm fine with that. You know, it's ideal, it's

342
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: not ideal, but uh man, they're they're getting the quarterback

343
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: and they're there. If they're not touching them, they're at

344
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: least getting them back on his heels, and that's being

345
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: more difficult throws. Nate. This is a team that is

346
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 1: third in the NFL and points allowed at sixteen points

347
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: six points per game by the Dallas Cowboys. When you

348
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 1: look at going forward for the rest of the year.

349
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,439
Speaker 1: To Choppy's point about the run defense, what do you

350
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,399
Speaker 1: see that has to get better for this run defense

351
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: at least to be average so that they're not getting

352
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: gas the way that we've seen at times this season

353
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: so far. Well, the first thing that I want for

354
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 1: our defense, it's far offense. And I've asked from this

355
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: from the first show we've done together, because I need

356
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: for y'all to be at least even with time of possession,

357
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: our defense is average. You're playing thirty two minutes a game,

358
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: and you wonder why our secondary is banged up in

359
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: Chicago had thirty six minutes on Sunday. You know, you

360
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: know you have to You got nine games, you got

361
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 1: five of my team a road games. Three things you

362
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 1: gotta take on the road. That's your run game, that's

363
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: your defense. You gotta have tight special teams. So if

364
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: this is the case, you gotta find a way to

365
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: these even it up thirty minutes a game. If you

366
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: get thirty two, imagine if our defense can play on

367
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 1: the twenty eight minutes a game. So as Christons scored

368
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: some more touchdowns every now know you asked about the defense,

369
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,639
Speaker 1: but I'm telling you what can help with our defense

370
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 1: that you will see the turnovers pick up. You'll see

371
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: you'll see that we'll be in more knees and we'll

372
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 1: our defense that is fine as then and then when

373
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: it comes tign to stop that run early in the game,

374
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 1: the late in the game called Philadelphia closed out on us,

375
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: We'll be fresh enough to do it. Drew, what do

376
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: you believe is the ceiling for this football team this

377
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 1: year based on what you've seen and now going forward

378
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: for the rest of the year and what the Cowboys

379
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 1: can achieve possibly, Well, you know, I'm not going to

380
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: get on that bandwagon like a lot of Cowboys fans

381
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 1: and you know, talking about Super Bowl and stuff. You know,

382
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 1: let's just take one game at a time and see

383
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 1: where we are going through the NFC East. Now is

384
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: the Beast again? Yeah? And ain't anymore? Right, So let's

385
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 1: try to have that goal of winning the East at

386
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: least getting to the playoffs and then re established ourselves

387
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 1: once we get there and see if we have what

388
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: it takes to make a run through the playoffs a

389
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: good team. Last year, you know, I was disappointed when

390
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: we hit the playoffs playing a home game San Francisco

391
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 1: you're not up for that. You're not ready for that.

392
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 1: That was a great opportunity for us to win that game.

393
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: Then maybe make a run, you know, through the rest

394
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: of the playoffs. But this team just needs to take

395
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,239
Speaker 1: one game at a time. They're not that They're not

396
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: too many veterans on this team. I'm a young guys,

397
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: you guys, so let's keep them focus, you know, not

398
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 1: looking too far ahead, choppy. This is an NFC East

399
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: that's twenty three and eight since the merger in nineteen seventy.

400
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: This division has the highest win percentage through the first

401
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: eight weeks of the season at a seven forty two clip,

402
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: and one of only two divisions currently the AFC East

403
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: and the NFC East to have all four teams at

404
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: least five hundred or above. Did you see this coming

405
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 1: in the NFC East? With how good the Cowboys have been,

406
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: the Giants, the Philadelphia Eagles, even Washington having won three

407
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 1: games in a row. Did you see this coming at

408
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season. Do you want me to

409
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: lie to you? I want you to to tell me the truth. Chod,

410
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: tell me that I saw the Cowboys running away with

411
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 1: this thing. I didn't see the Eagles being what seven

412
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: and oh yeah, I sure, as you know what, didn't

413
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: see the Giants being at their record at six and two.

414
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 1: And I didn't see even see Washington being a five

415
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: hundred team. I thought it was gonna be the Cowboys

416
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: and then a gap, and then the Eagles and then

417
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 1: a bigger gap and then those other two teams out

418
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: of the bottom. I certainly did not see this. This

419
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 1: is stunning. I still don't buy New York. I still don't.

420
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of their quarterback. I think their

421
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: coach has done a really nice job. But I'm waiting.

422
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 1: I'm waiting for them to go on that five games

423
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: and very unusual ways, like going for two points and

424
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: win in the game instead of in Jacksonville. Yeah, ain't worry,

425
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,640
Speaker 1: interception on the one yard lift, you know, things like that.

426
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,959
Speaker 1: But uh, you know, when you when you see that,

427
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: Nate knows that he's like scared because is that a

428
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,120
Speaker 1: team of destiny winning games like that due the course

429
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: of the season. So you got to be concerned about

430
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 1: the Giants to chop, Yeah, I get it. I just

431
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 1: you know, like that they had no business beat in Baltimore.

432
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: Baltimore was dominating that football game they went up winning.

433
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: I just I can't I can't, like, I can't see

434
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,479
Speaker 1: that team. I'm like, man, I just don't understand how

435
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: they're doing it. I'm gonna have to get past that

436
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,479
Speaker 1: because this em to be here. Philadelphia is scary though, Yeah,

437
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: all right, they're scary. I love their quarterback. I think

438
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is tremendous, getting better and better every game.

439
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: I think he's criminally underrated. I think he's underrated as

440
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: a passer. He's not underrated as a runner, but I

441
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: think as a passer he's massively underrated. And they made

442
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: a move too, Chop brought in the defensive end. Yeah,

443
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 1: as so as he's gonna be he's gonna be satisfied.

444
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: They're still making moves. Nate, where does this Cowboys team

445
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:56,919
Speaker 1: fit in the NFC picture in your mind when you

446
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 1: think about the Philadelphia Eagles, the New York Giants, Where

447
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 1: does this cow team fit with the midst of the

448
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: Vikings and all these teams at the top of the NFC.

449
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: You know, you know, Kevin and I'm being I'm being serious. Uh,

450
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: Let's see, we have had twelve and this win eleven.

451
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: This win tends this win thirteen and three. Yea of

452
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: a sudden the first round were all out ugly, Uh,

453
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 1: weaknesses come out. Yeah, let's let's see. I want to

454
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 1: see because I have never in the last ten years,

455
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 1: have counting Philip count Philly out. It's something about their

456
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: GM and the management team that always seemed to put

457
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: a team together and then they would at the end

458
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: of the year. It's like they fitted played four pass

459
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: seas and they beat them all and they in the playoffs. Man,

460
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: they made the playoffs last year in a rebuild, in

461
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: a rebuild, so you didn't believe that it was gonna

462
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: be good this year. I did. I did, but I

463
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: thought that I was. Yeah, that wasn't a day to

464
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 1: get hurt. You know. I quit doubting them. Yeah, because

465
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: every year we doubt not the Giants. I would talk

466
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: bad about the Washington several names I would talk bad about,

467
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: but I'm always and fellas. Don't forget they ended with

468
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: maybe ten on eleven straight run plays against us. They're like,

469
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 1: we're gonna put our Stamplet approval on y'all. Brow. Yeah,

470
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: they they they stay. Yeah, I remember that, man, But

471
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: Brown ain't Jay Brown. Yeah, I didn't even know about

472
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: this guy until you know Tennessee he was. Yeah, the

473
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 1: Eagles saw something in him. I got the breast of

474
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 1: the league as well. But man, this guy's uh three

475
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: touchdowns on Sunday makes a big difference. And then with

476
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 1: the Demante Smith, uh there so, and they got a

477
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: good tight end. They got a little running game. Yeah,

478
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: they run that a little option at RPO and especially

479
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: around the gold line. They don't settle for field goals.

480
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,199
Speaker 1: They're getting in the end zone. And a lot of

481
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: it is that that pressure hurts were putting on the

482
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: defense when they get into that. We call it the

483
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: plus territory, you know, you young guys call it the right.

484
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: That's a plus territory. And uh, you know, he's a

485
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: threat that on there, and that means the rest of

486
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: the your offense is a threat in that kind of situation.

487
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: They're they're putting them touchdowns and not kicking field. You

488
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,640
Speaker 1: got Jordan Davis, you got Flesher cops, you got Hardgrave,

489
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: you got Brandon Graham. The dudes know how, Yeah, they

490
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: know how to play big boy football. Yeah, and so

491
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: they gotta rent. They gotta deal. Now, we're gonna beat

492
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 1: you down in the first quarter. We're gonna score a

493
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: lot of points in the in the second quarter, and

494
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna make you come get us. Yeah right, that

495
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: is what the Cowboys need to adapt going into the

496
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: second yeah part of the season. That way, our offense,

497
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 1: our defense can stay fresh. And now I'm gonna ride that.

498
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ride that, Drew. Yeah, we don't keep our

499
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: defense fresh when we're gonna I agree with that. You know,

500
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: it's an advantage, you know, that way you get your

501
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: best players down the field and they're not tired because

502
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: and you have a rotation and everything like that, so

503
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 1: you keep your best players on the field if they're

504
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: if you're controlling third down, which will control the time

505
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: of possession. Joelle want to ask you before we go

506
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: to break here, because we feel like this Cowboys team

507
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: has a chance to be special this year. When you

508
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: played and understood what the assignment was for your teams,

509
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 1: when did you know that a certain team was special,

510
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: whether it be something in the locker room, something that

511
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: happened in the game that you remember. When did you

512
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: know that a particular team was special in a particular year.

513
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 1: You know, not to sound arrogant or anything, we always

514
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: felt we were special. Yeah, because when we hit training camp,

515
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: Coach Landry let us know exactly what we had, all right.

516
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,479
Speaker 1: We always just said a reasonable goal, outstanding goal. But

517
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 1: he would never set a goal that he didn't think

518
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 1: our team could achieve. Our goal every year was to

519
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: get to the playoffs. I played in seven Energy Championship games. Yeah,

520
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: so you know we you know, we came to play

521
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: every year. We didn't have that drop off even when

522
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: we went to Super Bowl, you know one that uh

523
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: we thought going into training camp would be a little

524
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: easier and stuff. Yeah, we're the champion. Now he worked,

525
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: it's even harder. So we always had that that goal

526
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 1: to get to the super Bowl. The reasonable goal was

527
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,719
Speaker 1: to make the playoffs. Ways, means and methods to accomplish that.

528
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 1: And then you take those ways, means and method to

529
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 1: the next goal, which is, of course get to the

530
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: UH playoff, but not just to get to the super Bowl,

531
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: but to win the Super Bowl and UH three time

532
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champ. He knows better than me. Coach Johnson

533
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 1: the same way, man, you and he always looked at

534
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 1: players and and I know coach ain't look at us,

535
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: saying he didn't look at where you he always looked

536
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: at what you could be, and so he drove you

537
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: to what he think you should. Yeah, not know, you know, hey,

538
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 1: let's wait on this guy. No, if he believed in you,

539
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: he puts you in there and he let you go. Now,

540
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: he didn't just turn you loose as a starter. You

541
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 1: had to kind of working with you know. It was

542
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: always competition. This is the first time, the second time,

543
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: this is consecutive years that we have had real competitive

544
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 1: guys checking one another. Right, there was the accountability we

545
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: didn't handle. Hey, you you just started the Marcus Lawrence.

546
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: You just started Dak You just no. You look at

547
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: our defense line. We just got rid of decent defense line.

548
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 1: We just released a defense defense linement picked up like

549
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: that because you you you can't flash brother. You got

Speaker 1: the Cowboys this week before they take on Aaron Rodges

582
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 1: and the Green Bay Packers. The trade deadline came and

583
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 1: went yesterday, the Cowboys deciding to stand pat, not necessarily

584
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,439
Speaker 1: making a move on a day where we saw ten

585
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: trades go down in the National Football League. Chop, I'm

586
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: gonna ask you, as you cover this team, talk about

587
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: this team on a daily basis, are they going to

588
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: regret not making a move at the trade deadline? I

589
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: don't know. They get Odell Beckham, there's still the opportunity

590
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 1: for that. He is still sitting out there in free age,

591
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 1: you know, I don't I don't think any team really

592
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 1: unless you unless you don't have a quarterback, you eat him.

593
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: I don't know that how many teams are actually one

594
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,760
Speaker 1: player away anymore? Right, Like you either have a quarterback

595
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 1: that could take you there or you don't. And I

596
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 1: think this team does, and I don't think they're truly one.

597
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: I think they're there. They're ready, you know, like a

598
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: couple of breaks go their way. The NFC is as

599
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 1: wide open as eyes ever I've ever seen it. Uh,

600
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,359
Speaker 1: you don't have to go through Kansas City, you don't

601
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 1: have to go through Buffalo, you don't go about you

602
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: don't have to go through Lamar Jackson. All right, you

603
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about it. You just go through

604
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 1: Philadelphia at San Francisco and you've got the quarterback advantage

605
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,240
Speaker 1: in both of those games. So I'll take my chances.

606
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: I don't think it's worth mortgage in the future. Uh,

607
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: if they wanted to go and give up a that

608
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,800
Speaker 1: what I have done? A second out pick for Chase Claypool. Yeah,

609
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: I probably would have. That's the one that got away. Right.

610
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 1: He's been He's making basically two million dollars a year

611
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: for this year and next year. That's that's free. That's

612
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 1: a free player. I'm sorry, sure, I know back in

613
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:44,919
Speaker 1: your day, it's not today. That's a that's a free

614
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 1: player today. So it's like, you know, I maybe would

615
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 1: have gone for him, But I think they're there. I

616
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: think they're good enough. Wow, right, May I agree, Nate? No,

617
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 1: I agree, I think they're good enough. They put themselves

618
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 1: in a position and you know, to compete, uh for

619
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,399
Speaker 1: that NFC East title in a playoff spot, so let's

620
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 1: see if they can finish the deal. And you know,

621
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 1: they've been through adversity, lost their quarterback and still in

622
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: this position. Other guys like John Madden like doesn't like

623
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 1: to say, but other guys stepped up. Yeah, stepped up

624
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: where they've been. Yeah, you'll need to step up there.

625
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,399
Speaker 1: So you know, the other guys are playing played well

626
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 1: during that stretch, and they got a lot a lot

627
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 1: of guys got experience, more experienced, So you know, they

628
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 1: put themselves in a position to make this run. But

629
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: the next three games are critical. Two on the road,

630
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: Green Bay, then Minnesota. Minnesota's pretty good, y'all. Ye. Then

631
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,719
Speaker 1: they go to Washington, uh this week uh so, and

632
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: then they then they got the Giants at home. So

633
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 1: this stretch coming up is going to be very critical

634
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 1: for this team. Nate, what concerns you most about what

635
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,959
Speaker 1: area I would ask concerns you most about this team?

636
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: As you start looking forward now I just believe this

637
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: right here, that and I time possession, time of possession.

638
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 1: We have to capture that because it's gonna always come

639
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: back to that defense. Your head coach said that it's

640
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 1: a critical point, and I'm beating. I'm just beating on them.

641
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: I don't want it. Yeah, I don't want it. At

642
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: the end of this year, you know. Uh, our guys

643
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 1: are beat up because they're tired, you know, and and

644
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: it ran out of gas. And I've seen it happen.

645
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 1: I've seen it happen to the your Ravens, where their

646
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 1: defense just was a little bit older. This is a

647
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 1: young defense. I ain't worry about running out of youth

648
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: with gas, but just being getting beat up, you know.

649
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: So because the last team forty nine runs, they refused

650
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: to stop running, and that beat our team up. They

651
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,399
Speaker 1: need this, They need this, boy, So that one area

652
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: I worry about it. And then can the office the

653
00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: line continue to stay physical. Can if the office continue

654
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 1: to stay physical and they have some type of balance.

655
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: But I do know, Drew, I do know chopping it's

656
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,879
Speaker 1: gonna come some games. But you're gonna throw that rock.

657
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 1: Oh so yeah, so they're gonna have to be better

658
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: pass blockers in the second half too, don't have to

659
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 1: be definitely better pass blockers. The number is to two

660
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: with two passing touchdowns on Sunday. Dak Prescott now has

661
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: forty five career multi touchdown passing games, which moves him

662
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: past Danny White for the third most multi touchdown games

663
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,959
Speaker 1: by a Cowboys quarterback. When you look at four Drew,

664
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,879
Speaker 1: when you look at Dak Prescott, what impresses you most

665
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: about him and what he is going to have to

666
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 1: do to help lead this football team if they are

667
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 1: to go where they want to go, and that's to

668
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl this year. I guess the number one

669
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: thing is he's a winner. You know, he's got that

670
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,360
Speaker 1: winning attitude. Then you go from there to his leadership,

671
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: and then you go from there to his athletic ability.

672
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 1: You have all those three things going. You got a

673
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 1: pretty good quarterback, you know, running your football team. So

674
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,800
Speaker 1: you know that just continue to improve, get better and better,

675
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 1: and you know he will. You know how conscientious he

676
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:12,399
Speaker 1: is about his position and where he is. He knows

677
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 1: exactly he's the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys and what

678
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: all comes with that, and he embraces that most guys

679
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 1: going one on all that extra so you know that

680
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: they call it distractions, but that embraces that and the

681
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 1: other and the guys on the team listen to him,

682
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 1: all right. They know he's a quality person. And when

683
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 1: you got a guy like that leading your football team,

684
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: you gotta ship you got a chance. What we gotta do,

685
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: like Nate said, protect them, keep them healthy. I think

686
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:46,320
Speaker 1: in situations where you know he might run the football,

687
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: got to get down and stuff, you know, and understand

688
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 1: his value to the team, you know, and uh, continue

689
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: doing what he's doing. He got, you know, from sitting

690
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 1: out all those weeks. And then he plays. You know,

691
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: he played okay when game he came back against Detroit,

692
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: but then the next game he got better. So he's

693
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 1: gonna continue to get better as he plays more and more. Shot,

694
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,319
Speaker 1: we saw last year Matthew Stafford help of talented Los

695
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams team win a Super Bowl? Is Dak Presscott

696
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,359
Speaker 1: good enough? And this version of Dak Presscott good enough

697
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 1: to help this team win a Super Bowl this season?

698
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think he is. I mean, look, I

699
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 1: mean the Rams won three playoff games by nine points total.

700
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 1: You gotta win games like that, man. But I mean,

701
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: how much of like good fortune do you have to

702
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 1: get to win three games by nine points total? I mean,

703
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: things got to go your way. They had to have

704
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 1: a dropped interception in the NFC Championship game to even

705
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 1: make the Super Bowl. Yeah, so you've got to find

706
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 1: ways to capitalize those mistakes that the other team makes.

707
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: But he's absolutely good enough to win the Super Bowl.

708
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 1: There's a dozen quarterbacks or fifteen quarterbacks in the league

709
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:53,359
Speaker 1: that you could say are good enough that. I don't

710
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: mean they're gonna do it every year. Sure, there's there's

711
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 1: there's probably two guys are gonna do it every that

712
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 1: are gonna be the running every year right now, and

713
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: that's Josh and Allen and and Patrick Mahomes and everybody

714
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:03,359
Speaker 1: else is gonna be like, Okay, well, let's have our

715
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: career year, let's have our defense step up that year,

716
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: and we'll take our chances. But yeah, like, there's no

717
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,319
Speaker 1: doubt that in any given year, Dak can lead this

718
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:13,919
Speaker 1: team to a title. I don't think there's any question

719
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: about that. Well, you think about some of these other

720
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: teams and the quarterbacks they're counting on. Yeah, okay, how

721
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 1: about the Jones is uh in New England and the Jets,

722
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: you know they're down. Trevor Lawrence is you know, up

723
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: and down. He didn't look like he's improving much. The

724
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 1: quarterback we played against uh Josh Fields justin fields, justin fields.

725
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: You know, Trey Lance is hurt now. But you know

726
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 1: what I mean, We're lucky to have what we have

727
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: at that position. When you look around even quarterback in

728
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: uh In with the Giants, you know, he's up and down.

729
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. And so look at the Ridskins situation. You

730
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: know they play Carson Wentz. You know, you know you

731
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 1: couldn't start from my grandson's high school teams snap, start

732
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:03,080
Speaker 1: from this grand high school. That's not that's not gonna catch.

733
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: That's Frisco Emerson. I'm gonna shout out. They're only eight

734
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 1: and one in there first year high school football. Okay,

735
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 1: they go and put it out there so far on

736
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 1: the season. But we're blessed to have Dak a quarterback.

737
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: Let's ride him and put the people around him, keeps

738
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 1: arounding him with the quality players so that we could

739
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 1: take advantage of what we have there. We're gonna take

740
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 1: our final break here on Cowboys Cross. I presented by

00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 1: on this evening, Let's catch up with the original eighty eight.

763
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 1: One of the more cool moments I thought of this

764
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: season so far. It happened during I believe before the

765
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 1: season started, maybe a little bit during the season, but

766
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,240
Speaker 1: you had a chance to sit down with your fellow

767
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 1: eighty eight club members in ceede Lamb, Michael Irvin and yourself.

768
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 1: Take us through that moment. Obviously sitting around eating you know,

769
00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:49,960
Speaker 1: burrito bowls and burritos a courtesy a Chipoli. Tell us

770
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 1: about that that meeting in that summit that the Ada

771
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 1: Club had and how special that was for the three

772
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 1: of you. Yeah, that was really special because that's the

773
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 1: first time Bryan let me not forget about Daz, I

774
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: mean not talking about the No, no, no, this is

775
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:05,319
Speaker 1: a bad dude. Yeah he lives up to Okay, forget

776
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,880
Speaker 1: about that. They didn't when he was there and not

777
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 1: not his fault. But anyway, it was the first time

778
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 1: we all got together, the four of us. Uh. When

779
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 1: I you know, when Michael was annointed with that number,

780
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,800
Speaker 1: he said Drew. Uh, they want me to wear the number.

781
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: What do you think? I said, Michael, it's not my number.

782
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: But if you do wear it, don't do well what

783
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 1: I did do more than that, you know. So that's

784
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 1: how we kept passing it on and Dad's come, don't

785
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,400
Speaker 1: do what Michael did or Drew did do more than that.

786
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: Now CD's turn. But we had you know, it's great

787
00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 1: to get together and the fellowship to talk, uh, and

788
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 1: to let CD know what it means to be in

789
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: this special club, uh, the ad a club, and what

790
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 1: it means to wear that number. Now CD admitted it.

791
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,920
Speaker 1: He didn't want that number, Okay, he admitted you know.

792
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 1: But now that he's got it, I think he's embracing

793
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,759
Speaker 1: where he is with it and understands the history of

794
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: it and is trying to live up to what it's

795
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:05,160
Speaker 1: all about. And so but getting together it was great.

796
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 1: The best part, you know, you come up with a

797
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 1: thirty minute, thirty seconds or a minute commercial, you know,

798
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,839
Speaker 1: but the best part was the outtakes and stuff. Man,

799
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:19,400
Speaker 1: we had a ball. We had a blast. They're just

800
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:23,360
Speaker 1: joking and uh, having a good time and fellowshipping in

801
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,839
Speaker 1: all that. So it was good. It was yeah. Yeah.

802
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 1: That one thing is we've come with all eight ese.

803
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:33,520
Speaker 1: They got their money. At the end of the commercial

804
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 1: that seth was cut. Yeah, yeah, don't bounce Mortar. I

805
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:50,879
Speaker 1: made my first three years in the league. I heard

806
00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:53,120
Speaker 1: that greater comes later, Greater comes later, and you got

807
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 1: choice coming. We didn't make no money. We didn't make

808
00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: I did want to ask you before we get out

809
00:50:57,600 --> 00:50:59,799
Speaker 1: of here on this evening too. For those that don't know,

810
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: what does it mean to be an eighty eight? What

811
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 1: is that singular characteristic or mindset that is becoming of

812
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 1: all eighty eights in your mind? Well, there's a lot

813
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,359
Speaker 1: of things. You know, CD showed where that one game

814
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,319
Speaker 1: he came across and dropped that pass, then came back

815
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,439
Speaker 1: later in the game and made the players to help

816
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,839
Speaker 1: us win the game. That's a big part of what

817
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,120
Speaker 1: the ady eights are about. Mental toughness, you know, having

818
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: that heart even if you have a mistake, use that

819
00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 1: to motivate you to come back out there on the

820
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: field and try to do something to help the team win,

821
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: to overcome that mistake. And then you know, just being

822
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:40,640
Speaker 1: a quality individual, a team player and taking advantage of

823
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:44,239
Speaker 1: every opportunity that comes your way, but knowing when the

824
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,759
Speaker 1: game is on the line, you got to be the man,

825
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,479
Speaker 1: all right, that's what it is. You know, we didn't

826
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:53,160
Speaker 1: have no go to receiver back in the day or

827
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 1: number one receiver, and we broke the huddle the defensive

828
00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:58,000
Speaker 1: note if Tony Hill is going to be the number

829
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: one or me or Butch but in that final two

830
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 1: minutes coming ye. Michael Irvin was the same way with

831
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 1: Ady eight and Dad's the same way with the opportunities

832
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 1: he had. But that's what CD has to do. Understand that,

833
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 1: and I think he does. And uh, you know, we

834
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:22,719
Speaker 1: told him, don't be messed up. Don't ain't too many

835
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 1: guys in the league getting commercials at this age, so

836
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 1: you gotta keep carrying. Nate. You obviously played with one

837
00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,839
Speaker 1: of the Ady eights and Michael Irvin. For those that

838
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,640
Speaker 1: don't know, what made Michael special in that locker room

839
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:40,320
Speaker 1: because he could talk to everybody. He had a connection

840
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 1: with everybody offense, line, defens line, quarterback. Why I received

841
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,880
Speaker 1: was a DBS. He could walk into anybody's hotel during

842
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 1: the game and in trically be a part of it.

843
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,480
Speaker 1: He understood the game, He understood the people that he

844
00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:58,080
Speaker 1: was dealing with. Whether it was black, whether his wife hispanic,

845
00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:00,400
Speaker 1: it didn't matter. A woman could have stepped than him

846
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 1: been playing, and Mike would have found a way to

847
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 1: get into her mind, in her heart. That's Mike man.

848
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 1: He was. Troy was the man. He's still back that

849
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:09,440
Speaker 1: he did what he had to do well when he

850
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: came trying to pull everybody together. That was a playmaker man,

851
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 1: which is very interesting because you don't necessarily hear that

852
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,719
Speaker 1: a lot from wide receivers and not to know that

853
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 1: he had that kind of quality to be able to

854
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 1: do so. I was captain. You know, that guy pulled

855
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 1: us together. I know what that situation was. But yeah,

856
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 1: that's part of the club too. CD will be a

857
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:34,359
Speaker 1: captain before he leaves here. We're talking about Mike. Most

858
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: also didn't have seventeen brothers and sisters. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

859
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 1: you've got to know how to deal with I mean, yeah,

860
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,320
Speaker 1: that's seventeen different personality, that's right. And he had he

861
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: has a unic ability. He walks into any room, any

862
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,360
Speaker 1: room in America, and and he is one of the

863
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:52,880
Speaker 1: three owners of that room at point and and and

864
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,640
Speaker 1: so you and so it's dead. That's the way it is,

865
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 1: I mean, and there's a personality that goes with it.

866
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 1: Proud of Mike Man for his wife after football, what

867
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:05,359
Speaker 1: he's doing. I mean, he's really good on TV. He's

868
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,600
Speaker 1: really good and doing a great job and just representing

869
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,720
Speaker 1: the ad eight because every time they see him on TV,

870
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 1: they're thinking about the eighty eight club. Got a couple

871
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:14,960
Speaker 1: of minutes left before we get out here. What are

872
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:17,359
Speaker 1: you up to these days as a Pro Football Hall

873
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,799
Speaker 1: of Famer ambassador to the game of football? What does

874
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:25,480
Speaker 1: Drew Pearson doing these days? Nothing? I feel that waking

875
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,480
Speaker 1: up being doing what just what I want to do,

876
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: being just what I want to be. But you know,

877
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 1: still getting opportunities for personal appearances and things like that,

878
00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 1: and a lot of it came through once you get

879
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:39,759
Speaker 1: in the Hall of Fame. These opportunities come more plentiful, right,

880
00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 1: You get more meaningful as well. You know, I was

881
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 1: able to do something to promote the vaccine for you know,

882
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:49,880
Speaker 1: our race, people of color and stuff like that. The

883
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame was very much behind that. I've had

884
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 1: opportunities to speak to school kids as a Hall of

885
00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:00,120
Speaker 1: Famer with the heroes of the game. Thing that they

886
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:03,320
Speaker 1: got going on so it's it's been a great ride.

887
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:08,400
Speaker 1: All I know is why didn't happen sooner? Ye? Come on,
