What's your responsibility? Run through that red 57 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: quick like? My name is Nate anyway. But yeah, by 58 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: the way, CJ, you know me. Shannon Kurt Daniels is 59 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: our editor of Star magazine that's on here. And then 60 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: the fat Man and the Big Man is Nate Newton. 61 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: That played with us forever and won three Super Bowls, 62 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: got got elected to six Pro Bowls as an offensive lineman. 63 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: That's who's asking you these very intrusive questions right now. 64 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: What that mean? Well, I'm honored to be talking to you, 65 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: my man. I appreciate you. What's your question again? What 66 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: all I doing supposed to team everything? Walk us through it, 67 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: my friend. UM, I'm the gunner. Uh so you know 68 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: punt I'm the gunner. Um. My main responsibility right there 69 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: when the punt team is to get down there and 70 00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: just disrupt the timing of the of the play. UM. 71 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: Really is to make the tackle every time we pump 72 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: the ball. It's the it's field position. We value feel 73 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: position on this team because we have a good team. 74 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: So you know, every every yard it's a game of inches. 75 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: You know that more than anybody. UM onna kickoff, I'm either, 76 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: I'm in the middle. I mean that the five of 77 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: the four again is to disrupt the timing of the play. Um, 78 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: it's my first responsibility is to make the tackle. If 79 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: I don't do that, UM, I just messed the playoff. Really, 80 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: and on pump return, I guard the gunner. So again, 81 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: it's the disrupt the timing. So like like I said, 82 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: every every inch matters in this game. So if we 83 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: can get the return on a little bit, that's what 84 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: we do. We need a little bit, We need to 85 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: get that a little bit better as well. But then 86 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: don't kickoff return. I just I just block whoever Coach 87 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: Bones assigned me to block. Um. Like I said, we 88 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: value very very much. So value the um, the every 89 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: every yard and in this game god, like I said, 90 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: because we have a good team. What's that like is 91 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: especially on the kickoffs, because it just looks like chaos 92 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: to us. I mean here, you're you know, you're you 93 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: got is especially blocking that maybe got a few pounds 94 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: on you, they're coming at your full speed. I mean, 95 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: what's that like for you? Oh? No, it is chaos, 96 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: but it's it's but there's a round of reason to everything. Um. 97 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 1: We get place, we get placed in certain positions because 98 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: we have certain skill sets, and Coach Bones uh does 99 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: a great job of highlight that for each of us. 100 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: Um all skill sets, I should say, um. And like 101 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm a fast guy, I mean, uh fat uh, boss 102 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: Man number twenty four, we're fast guys on the team. 103 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: So we kind of always in the middle just to 104 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: mess up to play and everyone and pretty much everyone 105 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: else's is a bigger body and they take on the 106 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: bigger blocks to usually they make the tackles, but you know, 107 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: I like to make them all. So what did you 108 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: call jos reason? But it is chaos? What did you 109 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: call Joseph twenty four? What did you call him? We 110 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: call him? We were called him fat, We call him 111 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: boss man, fat name around? I actually forget his name. 112 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: I forgot his name was cal. Thank you for that. 113 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 1: Remember that? So it's it's It seems like on on 114 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: game day, you guys, either you or we'll call him fat. 115 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 1: Since you call him fat, it seems like you or 116 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: him are always, especially on pump returns, always the first 117 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,119 Speaker 1: guys down there. And to me being at field level, 118 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: it seems like the hardest part of that job is 119 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: taking the right angle to the guy and not losing 120 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: your footing because you're going so fast. You're trying, I'm 121 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: assuming you you have like containment lanes. You're trying not 122 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: to let him either get outside of you or inside 123 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: of you, and you're really is the first guy down there, 124 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: just really trying to get there as fast as you 125 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 1: can to make him choose a direction to go or 126 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 1: what's the what's the concept as the as the gunner 127 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: getting down there. The concept of the gunner is always 128 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: make the tackle. It's always stopping wherever because of the ball. 129 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: Making the ball. But um, if we don't do that, 130 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: our job is to take our shot and put him 131 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: on one leg and putty put him on one leg. 132 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: That that determines the directions he's gonna go. Because if 133 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: you're if you're, if your right leg is up, you're 134 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: not gonna go right. Um, So if either me and him, 135 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: if the boss can't either way, we take our shot 136 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: and the other gunn it is supposed to make the tackle. 137 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: Sometimes it doesn't work like that, but most of the 138 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: time we do a pretty pretty good job at that. 139 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: Nice you came into the NFL, you know, practice squad 140 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: and all that in twenty fourteen, I believe, and it 141 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: really twenty and eighteen when you joined Dallas. That's when 142 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: it all kind of came together and clicked. What happened? 143 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: Was it just an opportunity? Did you grow and mature 144 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: as a player? I mean, why why did coming to 145 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: Dallas kind of right raise your game? It was a 146 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: combination of all that. Actually, um, I was. I played 147 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: pretty well at my position in Atlanta, but they didn't 148 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: value what I do as much as coming here. Um 149 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: I've gotten better over the years and they, like I said, 150 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: we really value the special team's aspects here, especially because 151 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: we have coach Bondes now Coach Moons the coach hat 152 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: Um there are two of the most regarded special teams 153 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: coaches in the league. So it all kind of came 154 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: together for me here once they came in. I want 155 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: to give a special shout out to Ko two Keith 156 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: o Quinn because he's the one that really got me here. 157 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: He's the one to let me shine when I got here. So, um, 158 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: it's just a blessing that just to have the opportunity 159 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: to be here and and be valued. You know, my friend, 160 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: I did a little bit of kickoff return back in 161 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: the day when we had when we had to you know, 162 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,719 Speaker 1: you know with that front.

I got it the 428 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: first half, did you. I'm still concerned. Defense, We're good, 429 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: got it solid? Yeah? Good? You had those guys in 430 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: the mix flying all over the place. Looks like a 431 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: top five possibly maybe the best defense in the league 432 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: the way they played this week. But the offense, I'm 433 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: I'm concerned. I still haven't seen a complete game from 434 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: the offensive side of ball. They did enough. Obviously, What 435 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: did y'all talk about yesterday? The defense? How do you 436 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: feel about the offense? Nate? You know, I feel pretty 437 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 1: good about the offense because, you know, and this this 438 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: bothered me. I'm listening to people, you know, talking about 439 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: our offense, and they're talking about the quarterback of obviously 440 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: they're talking about the dolphinessive line. So you know, I 441 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 1: felt that we ran good enough, you know, to maintain 442 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: the offense, you know, some yards, yeah, for thirty five carriers. 443 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: And then Kurt did me a huge favor. He came 444 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: in and got the stat sheet and I said, tell 445 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 1: me every negative run play they had, how many did 446 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: they have? Kurt counting one for zero yards? Yeah. One. 447 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: When you are playing against a stout defense, especially when 448 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: you're playing against two Pro Bowl All Pro type defensive 449 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: tackles and Jonathan Allen and Theron Payne, and you come 450 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: out of a game with thirty five carriers for one 451 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two yards, you did a hell of 452 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: a job. Whether it be Cedee Lamb, quarterback Zeke are 453 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: clements you. And then you tell me that they didn't 454 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: block pass block good enough? Go back and look at 455 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: the film because they they blocked good enough to win 456 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: the game. That your offensive line was not your issue. Now, 457 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: do we need to stop playing lineman back committee, Yes 458 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: we do. Do we need to find us some signature 459 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: runs and signature plays that we can hang our hat 460 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: on like we did. You know where we can block 461 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 1: down on the tackle, or we can block down on 462 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: the end, get around outside so we can take advantage 463 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: of Parlot when he come back or even clements when 464 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 1: to see can he do this? And while we let 465 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: Zeke pound the middle if when we when I played 466 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,199 Speaker 1: and ain't nothing changed in the run game. What you 467 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: don't want to do to your offensive coordinator or your 468 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:55,360 Speaker 1: quarterback is have a negative play. Quarterbacks field, they can 469 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: overcome a second and ten or a second and nine, 470 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: but they don't feel they can overcome that one yard 471 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: second to the level all we ran. We don't have 472 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: no place for that. Hadn't ever been part of the 473 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: problem though here lately is that in the beginning of 474 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: the year they were getting you know, they were setting 475 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: themselves up where they had third and short, and now 476 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: it seems like it's they're dealing more with third and long. 477 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: Is that they're dealing with third and four and five. Fellas, 478 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: if you are an offensive coordinator and you can't and 479 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: I'm coming a quarterback when i'm dealing, I'm not gonna 480 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 1: go just attack Keller and I'm talking about our quarterback. Two. 481 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: When you are a third and four, third and five, 482 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: you with the receiver, we got to say, I'll receive 483 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: us our average, which we don't think so. So if 484 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: you Amari all Pro, if he's on any other team, 485 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: he would be getting eight, nine thirteen targets a game. 486 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: If he's on any other team, you got one of 487 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: the best slot receivers and Ceedee Lamb in the league. 488 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,920 Speaker 1: You got one of the most big, explosive, big play 489 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: players and Michael Gallup on the outside. You mean to 490 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: take between your quarterback and your offensive coordinator and your 491 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: quarterback coach, miss nuts, you cannot overcome a series of 492 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: three and five. Come on, my friend, I ain't having it. 493 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: The offensive line block good enough for us to win 494 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 1: this game. Now, Dak, calm yourself. If you're feeling good, 495 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 1: let it show through your play. Calm yourself, because I'm 496 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: sitting there looking at the film and I'm listening every 497 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: The only problem we have is once Dak settled down, 498 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: we have enough experience in our locker room. McCarthy is 499 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: the offensive minded coach. Doug nut smire is an offensive 500 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: minded coach. Coach Filman, quit playing the rotation of the 501 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,239 Speaker 1: running of the offensive line. That don't work. If you 502 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 1: want Williams, put him in there. If you won't, still 503 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 1: put him in there. Because we were having success and 504 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: we were building off of that. Now all of a 505 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 1: sudden we switching up guys like this a mirror go around, 506 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: and then now you got people believing that's something wrong 507 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: with our offensive line. Our offensive line is okay, except 508 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: that we lost once we get the role and we 509 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: lost the dog. We lost our left tip. But we 510 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 1: we we should be okay. We we have a team. 511 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: If if if we can't figure this out as offensive 512 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: and now I am talking about the offensive coaches. If 513 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: coach Nusmira can't figure out what's in this quarterback head, 514 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: if coach y'all kellum can't figure out how to get 515 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: a signature running play or signature pass play to get 516 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: your guys back in the groove, yeah you do have 517 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: a problem. That means your That means your head coach 518 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: who's an offensive minded coach need to walk in there, 519 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: sit down and say this is what we need to do. 520 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: It's too much experience. Well, how do you like? Jerry 521 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: on the Flagship said that it's fair to say that 522 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: Dak is in a slump. Madam McCarthy said in his 523 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: press conference yesterday he wasn't in a slump, but clearly 524 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: something is off. I mean if it's a if it's 525 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: a mental thing. We don't think he's injured. How do 526 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: you fix it? How can a coach fix that? Quicker passes, 527 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: quicker situations, Uh, don't, don't change plays. The coach got 528 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: to give you something coming from the sideline and you 529 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: got to know how to you know that. He got 530 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: to know how to throw the ball from it, or 531 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: you got to know how to run the ball from it. 532 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: When we play, we had a check with me system too. 533 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: We rarely use that. North Turner will say this is 534 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: the play, something will break open. We had bliss checks 535 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: off of that play, and we had two or three 536 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: defenses that we knew they could come at and we 537 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: would we would we would block these up and know 538 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: how to block them, and we would rally to everything else. 539 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: Let your or the back. However, since hey man, this 540 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: is the play boom, you're saying, yeah, you because you'll 541 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: go to the line with two plays in mind. You 542 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: give him one, just one t get him back on track, 543 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 1: don't you know. Don't give him too much to think 544 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: about if it's not there, get rid of the ball. 545 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: People laughed at me yesterday, but y'all better understand one thing. 546 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: If I had the most the most perfect Dak for me, 547 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: when I the most perfect Dack ever for me was 548 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:35,479 Speaker 1: Rookie Dak, Rookie Dak was not gonna throw something that 549 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: he you know, he had all he had the college mentality. 550 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: If it ain't open, I ain't throwing it. If I 551 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be an interception, I ain't throwing it. 552 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: Rookie Dak played like that. But now we got the Dak. 553 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: I gotta make something happen. Yeah no, you don't. You 554 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: got better receivers, You still got a good offensive line, 555 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: and you're running backs ain't as bad as everybody wanted 556 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: to be. Right, Just do it, Just do it. Every 557 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: quarterback goes through this, I remember, it's a it's a 558 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 1: guy sitting right in case that don't want the super 559 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: Bowl and the lost one, and I think for like 560 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: seven games he was in a funk. He just couldn't 561 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: do it right. He still hasn't returned to what people expect, 562 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: thank thank you. But he's getting better. He's getting better. 563 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: He's boom okay, boom boom, but thank you. By by 564 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: tiny side of the playoffs, he'll be back to that guy. 565 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: But Dak needs to do it. Settle down, Okay, let 566 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: me get the ball out of my hands. I don't 567 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: let me. Don't let me put my offense in a 568 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: bad way. You are the fixer now. I'm not one 569 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: of these people that run out there, hey man, the 570 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: quarterback for us, get all bad days. No, no, no no, 571 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: no no. I've always said, whenever Dak has had the tools, 572 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: he's been great. I ain't never thought he could do 573 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: it with so part guys, But he has the tools. 574 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: Now the coordinator has to get with him with the 575 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: quarterback coach and put up a scheme that pemple and 576 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: to get him back going. That's all you gotta do. 577 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,479 Speaker 1: It's it's easy to say, but when people are like 578 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: the c J goodmen find at you one hundred miles 579 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: an hour, it ain't nice about you, Kurt, You're worried. 580 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure. I mean I think it's kind 581 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: of funny. I mean, going into training camp, we're like, man, 582 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna ride this offense defense. It's flipped and so 583 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: it's really strange. You know, it makes you wonder, like 584 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: you know Parcel's famous quote, you know, by Thanksgiving, you 585 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: are what you are, you know, and I'm a little 586 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: worried that, you know, it's just what we are. We 587 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: keep saying we want to see a complete game, we 588 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: want to see a complete game. Well should we have 589 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: by now? I mean is that we've had one one 590 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: and a half. You know, we had one and a 591 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 1: half what we call six, seven, eight game at which 592 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: you can when I said eight. The thing is, this 593 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: is what I keep looking at and you know I 594 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: call it a few people because I'm like, I'm off 595 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: here and let me go back to look at the film. Okay, 596 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: Olsa bash him, Bohannan Hamilton, others, another Armstrong Hill. We 597 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: had never heard of these guys, but for eight games 598 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: they were our starters. What happened. The only difference is 599 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator along with his assistance, they sat up 600 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: in every meet and say what can this guy do, 601 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: what can this get that guy do? Let's put this 602 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: together and put a package. And they held on all 603 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: our offensers. We got enough offensive experience to say, okay, 604 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: they meet as a group. Offensive line coach, quarterback coach, 605 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. Did you take it to the head coach? 606 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 1: All right, comes from the other way, officers at the 607 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: head coach down to the offensive coordinator. Did you take 608 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: it to your two assistants, and you say, this is 609 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: what we need to do to be successful. You have 610 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: to start getting tuned up for the playoffs. You're nine infold. 611 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: You have to start getting tuned up for the playoffs. 612 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: And we took a bad step backwards with our offense. 613 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: We took a bad step backwards. It. You know, we 614 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: talked about any wins a good win. We've had a 615 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: you know, we'll take an ugly win. Well, we've kind 616 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: of had two ugly wins. Now, yes, sir, Now does 617 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 1: that start to become a concern the thing you got 618 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: to start going forward? Don't don't make an issue. The 619 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 1: issue ain't right now. We ain't running the ball. Well, 620 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: it comes a point where in the playoffs and if 621 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 1: if we're gonna talk playoffs, and I wish my man 622 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: Jesse were here here, because if you're gonna talk playoffs, 623 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: it ain't about how good you run the ball, how 624 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: well you throw the ball. It's about doing what the 625 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: defense really gives you and take advantage of it. What if, 626 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: what if? What if we do have to go to 627 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, think, okay, we ain't. We already said from 628 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: the first game, we ain't gonna run the ball. So 629 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: what you're gonna do Just sit there on your hands 630 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 1: and say, okay, well, what we're gonna do this game. 631 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna throw the daylight side of that thing you 632 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: try to win the game. I'm right, So now it's 633 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: time to get ready to do your thing. That's what 634 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: that's all it's about. Now. That's why I didn't panic, 635 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 1: because I'm like, if we got to throw it fifty times, 636 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: so be it. If New Eengland can sit up there 637 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: and run the ball eighty to five thousand times with 638 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: an average offensive line. They don't have nobody great smoking 639 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: over there, but they ran about fifty sometimes. Come on, now, 640 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: Nate's fired up. Let's let him get his headphones back together. 641 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: Since you ripped the cord out of me, so excited. 642 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,320 Speaker 1: I'm I'll tell you what. I'm going to get straight 643 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: jacket and get all this here.

I mean, 735 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 1: this is a pretty at least two years now. I mean, 736 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: it's pretty much the same group you know you were 737 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: thinking would be you. You have to have you know, 738 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,720 Speaker 1: And I would pose this question to both of you, gentlemen, 739 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: because I talked to Broadest. I said Broadest what he said, Nate, 740 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: They're missing the signature played or two and early in 741 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,240 Speaker 1: the year, you know, we would block down on guys 742 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 1: and pull around down or block down and you know, 743 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: get outside and make some plays like that. And we 744 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 1: would mix it up with Zeke when he was healthy. 745 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 1: We don't have the signature playing anymore, oh man. And 746 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: that's the first thing that was like when we when 747 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 1: when you start jamming us up, we just take j 748 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: and split him out just a touch, putting Moose in 749 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 1: the backfield, putting it behind him. And then all of 750 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: a sudden, me and step on the noose guard, going 751 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 1: up to the mic backer the right, the right and 752 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 1: left right and tacking the right guard. They turning and 753 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 1: going up to those two guys, and whatever you did, 754 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: you was gonna be wrong because Emmett was gonna pick 755 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 1: the hole. And the next thing you know, you're gonna 756 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: find yourself on your back because Moose was leading right 757 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: up either on the middle linebacker depending on how quick 758 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,240 Speaker 1: he came, or the backside backer. We was punishing, folks. 759 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: What is the signature play? Give your offensive lines something 760 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 1: to hang their hats on, give your ride receivers, and 761 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: is the slant our signature kept pass play? Is it 762 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: Amari and the seam and having an option to go 763 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: inside out. What is our signature plays to get our 764 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 1: guys back? We don't care. You you gotta have eight 765 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 1: to nine plays where you don't care if the defense no. See, 766 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 1: everybody think this is a land of deception. This ain't 767 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: the land of deception. Route trees have not changed. You 768 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,760 Speaker 1: may have have different formations, but route trees have not changed. 769 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 1: So you got to have confidence and give your quarterbacks again. 770 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 1: Because if if our friend that can ever get back 771 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 1: have where he got a series or two where he's 772 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: on fire, Yeah, we're gonna be rolling and it ain't 773 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 1: gonna matter how good, how good the offensive line is, 774 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 1: as long as they're not terrible. Yeah, but do we 775 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: have the talent the players? I mean, you guys, we 776 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: have the talent, but they're not showing it. I guess. 777 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 1: I mean we have the talent. We just got to 778 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: make sure the plays are executed. We okay, let's stop. 779 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: Tyron Smith went healthy. He was a number one pick 780 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: left left tackle, right mark two and a free agent 781 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: left guard. Connor Williams was his number two pick. The 782 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: other kid was a number three or four pick. The 783 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 1: other Connor right Nate Newton free agent center Mark Stepnoski 784 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 1: third round pick. Our center is what a fifth to 785 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: six round pick right guard, and I ain't going with before, 786 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 1: I'm talking before lady rounder right guard Kevin Gogan sixth 787 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: round pick right guard, future Hall of Famer right tackle 788 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: was not drafted because he had some issues in Lyo Collins, 789 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:47,919 Speaker 1: but he'd have been a first round or second round pick. 790 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 1: Our right tackle was who at the time bige a 791 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:56,280 Speaker 1: third or fourth round pick out of a division's three school. 792 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 1: Don't tell me about what you can't be or what 793 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 1: you can be. Now you may say, okay, whether the 794 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: talent was evaluated or mis evaluated, or the talent was 795 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 1: worked in according to how we either. It's about your 796 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 1: coaches picking five guys up front, knowing their weaknesses and 797 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: knowing their strengths, and putting a game plan that is 798 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: comfortable to your quarterback, that fits into your run game, 799 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,360 Speaker 1: that fits into your passing game. It all has to 800 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: look the same at some point. But now if you 801 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 1: run it, if you're running the mirror around, or you're 802 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 1: out of Carnival and you're running a little mirror around, 803 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 1: come see the fat man comes the man ride the mule. 804 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: He ain't gonna ain't got no problem.
