All I 42 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: have to do is work out once and sweat and 43 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, I'm gonna tranquilize you in shaving myself. Well, 44 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: anything happened since we last convene? Less well for Robin 45 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: I last. I'm trying to think, Yeah, we talked. Notice 46 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: I've got my super Bowl cap. On the road to 47 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: the super Bowl starts now. Dallas won the super Bowl, right, 48 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 1: super Bowl that Dallas did wear the super Bowl. That 49 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: was dad joke prediction in past week. Ye. And by 50 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: the way, this is my CBS super Bowl cap. Next 51 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: year's Super Bowl is back on CBS in Tampa. Tampa. 52 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: Great moments for me. I'll be there, Yeah, a few 53 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: but still tamp Do they have enough hotels? No? I 54 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: didn't think so, because the last time I covered the 55 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: Super Bowl there, we ended up staying about ten fifteen 56 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: miles north of the city. You were blessed. Yeah, that 57 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: was good. That's and it was one of those hotels 58 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: where the door opens on to the to walk away 59 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: through it's raining hard, then put the towel down in 60 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: from that was a strange trip. So you have a 61 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: pretty good memory from that Super Bowl. I do I do. 62 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: First thing I did was dice and I we got there, like, 63 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: hey man, forget these guys. They've been to the Super 64 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: Bowl before. Let's go check this out. Man. We went 65 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: to the stadium. You know, it was closed, of course, 66 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: it was like got like eight o'clock at night, maybe later, 67 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 1: and I talked to Guarden to letting us on the field, 68 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: and you know, we went out there and just started 69 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: just reminiscing. Man, you know, like, hey man, we finally 70 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: made it here. We were on a sorry Dallas Cowboys 71 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: team and years was two and fourteen last year. I 72 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: went through that season and then the one in fifteen, 73 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: three and three and three and thirteen, and we had 74 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: four games, about four games and two years. Yeah, and 75 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, you know, here we are. 76 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: And he had gotten there first. So you know, we're 77 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: just realizing just how unless we were to be where 78 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: we were. And he just looked at me and said, 79 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: hey man, don't you screw this up? Okay, So what 80 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: are what are the Kansas City Chiefs feeling right now? Man? 81 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: They're feeling so good. They're feeling so good, especially after 82 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: fifty years of not even being in a Super Bowl, 83 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: and now here you are. Not only did you win it, 84 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: you went you wanted with what second African American quarterback 85 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: in history, right on the heels of God, the long 86 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: heels of Doug Williams. And then you had a comeback. 87 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: You both came in comeback fashion. Doug had to come 88 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: from behind against the Broncos in a major second quarter 89 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: of like four touchdowns and Timmy Smith running all over 90 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: the place. Timmy Smith, I remember that guy. Oh. I 91 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: was there when he tomorrow's national signing Day. I was 92 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: there in Hobbes, New Mexico, and Timmy Smith signed his 93 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: letter of intent with Texas Tech Us. Now were not 94 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: to be Hobbs with Mexico. And go back to the 95 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: beginning of football, and we'll see Bill sitting there leather 96 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: helmets or no helmets. And Timmy Smith, by the way, 97 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: we're talking Cowboys, he was at Dallas cow here's the 98 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: story about Timmy Smith. Okay, Timmy Smith did not have 99 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: an academic scholarship to Texas Tech. Okay, Okay, it was 100 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: definitely a football scholarship, all right. Well, when he was 101 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: with the Cowboys, my brother in law who's a Texas 102 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: Tech grad. Okay, it was. He was down in Austin 103 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: at training camp. He was just uh, guests for the 104 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: day whatever, and so he's sitting there watching the running backs. 105 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: He wanted to check out his Texas Tech guy, Timmy Smith. Well, 106 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: Joe Brodsky's a running backs coach, and my brother in law, 107 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: Billy Breedlove to this day, still tells the story, says, 108 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: I can just remember that coach barking it Timmy Smith 109 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: saying Timmy, this is your left and this is your right, 110 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: almost Super Bowl MVP, right, and disrespecting him. And that 111 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: was after he had played in the Super Bowl too, exactly. Yeah, 112 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: we had one of those running backs in high school. Oh, 113 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: we've had a bunch of running backs like that here 114 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: and not just had to take here, had to take 115 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: which was which? All right? So what was your takeaway 116 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: from the Super Bowl? I think, speaking of my homes 117 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: was he not? I think I saw this stat the 118 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: first quarterback ever to overcome three straight double digit deficits 119 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: in the playoffs on the way to the Super Bowl. Interesting. 120 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: I think I think I saw that. I think you 121 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: didn't make sense. It's incredible. It's increat he has something 122 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: else and he's twenty four years I think he has 123 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: thirty six starts in his NFL career, and he's a 124 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: Super Bowl MVP already, And the thought is this is 125 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: the first of many, but this is always like the 126 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: first take reaction the day after the last couple of years. Oh, 127 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: the Eagles are built for the long haul or the rams, 128 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: or they'll be back. Aaron Rodgers hadn't been back in 129 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: ten years, so you just never know, so you got 130 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: to take care of your opportunities. When you got him, 131 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: I thought it was just so weird because you've got 132 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: a player that really, I thought was an average defense 133 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: and you don't really win in the Super Bowl with 134 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: an average defense unless you're quarterback in your offense is 135 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: really clicking. And for them to be able to overcome 136 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: that lack of defensive assistance and with twenty four year 137 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: old that to me, that that that's what really spoke 138 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: volumes for me in the Super Bowl was just how 139 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: much poise he had in one of the games where 140 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: most people just choke and even down ten, Okay, you're 141 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 1: down ten with seven minutes left in the game and 142 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: you're facing third and fifteen. I was how at least 143 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 1: he opened? How is he How do you let that happen? 144 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: How is he open? He's wide open. He's not just open. 145 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: But that's when you realize, as a safety, you'd better 146 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: have some cornerback skills, because that was especially drawn up 147 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: for that safety to attack it isolated one right away. 148 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: Here he's thinking he's comfortable fifteen yards back in his 149 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: in his position, in his lineup. As the ball snap, 150 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: that gap was closed on him so fast and now 151 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: here he is isolated basically one on one coverage. I 152 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: think it was an option route. If he would have 153 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: covered him to the outside, they were gonna throw the post. 154 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: He covered him to the inside. And what pressure that 155 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: that guy failed at that time? Thank god, thank god. 156 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: The past wasn't that good. Otherwise he was running with 157 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: it and and he got and Mahomes got hit. He 158 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: was after he delivered. That's the thing with Mahomes. Mahomes 159 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: has such a strong arm. You know, he's starting the 160 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: shotgun and he he dropping further back, and it just 161 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: by being having a strong enough arm where he can 162 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: throw that pass. And when he got strength, that was 163 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: timing as well. Yeah, because he didn't wait to throw 164 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: a hard he had he knew when to throw a hard, 165 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: so you he knew as he was retreating, the best 166 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: time for me to throw this is now or never, 167 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: because he has a strong arm all you want. If 168 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: it's not on time, then he's still gonna be picked off. 169 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: And so fluttered up there. That's why Tyreek had to 170 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: wait for it to wait. But that's how wide open 171 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: he was ye to trade. So what about the corner underneath? Okay, 172 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: he took the um the underneath guy and uh there 173 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: there was some criticism on him that he should have dropped, 174 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: but I don't know what coverage they were. Well, it 175 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: was thirty fifteen, So yeah, you need to go. You 176 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: need to start back. Mentally, you need to start back 177 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: and then work your way up. Prioritize why and he 178 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: could I don't think mentally he was at the sticks, 179 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: so he was you know, they ran and who he 180 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: was taking. He ran across almost a bunch route mentality 181 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: had one across, one out, and of course you had 182 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 1: the iso from the guy in the middle, and so he, 183 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: like you said, we could have gone either way. But 184 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: they designed it. They designed it where they could be 185 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: isolated on that safety. So if it whether it's in 186 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: man to man or zone, the safety is now in 187 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: the man to man position. Cornerback is the one with 188 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 1: the least amount of pressure on him. So yes, it 189 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: would have helped if he could have dropped back, played 190 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,599 Speaker 1: more conservatively third and fifteen and that flutter, Yeah, that 191 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: would be away for him to make the play, probably 192 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: of his entire career. That's why the Chiefs deep I'm sorry, 193 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: that's why the Chiefs of the Ninets defense is known 194 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: for being the best defense in the league. They don't 195 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: make those mistakes in the seasons. Why the Super Bowl 196 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: creates pressures, as you know, best pass defense in the 197 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: league and make a simple mistake like that on third 198 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: and fifteen, and that's that's when it's made to make tunnel. 199 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: Oh right, I was salivating when it was thirty fifteen. 200 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: I might get a duck. Just give me a duck. 201 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: I'm going to pick it off. That was one four 202 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 1: and then they didn't take advantage of it. Best quarterback 203 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: in the league, one out, best best pass defense. Because 204 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: of that front, they put pressure on quarterbacks and then 205 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, in the last seven or eight 206 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: minutes they couldn't get to him. But for three and 207 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: a half quarters they that's why they were struggling. You know, 208 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: I kept hearing, well, my home's not playing well. No, 209 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: he's not playing well because he's running for his life 210 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 1: too many times, and they would get they were coming 211 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,599 Speaker 1: after him. Yeah, they couldn't get to him. Right, So 212 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: that's the difference. He was able to make the escape. 213 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: That's when the quarterbacks escapability, that's when that X factor 214 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: becomes very important doing the game like this. But then 215 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: the Kansas City defense steps up. Where did that come from? Right? 216 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: Last last day in the league? Now, last day I 217 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: supposed to be the best by the way I saw 218 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: this quote from Andy Reid. It was Monday morning after 219 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: the game. He goes, this is our first year with Spags. 220 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: He's a creative mind as anybody I've seen. So I'm 221 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: cousin Steve right, that's right. Well, mister Walls was one 222 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: of the fastest people in the world. Is it ever soon? 223 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: A hooky? Kay? You know I was coming back from 224 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: the past, rob you know of herky Walls right over 225 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: my head. Okay, you only explained to everyone else who 226 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: herkey is. Well, my second cousin, and he was God 227 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: could have made the Olympic team. I think that's what 228 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: I remember. He was left fourth in the Olympic trials 229 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: behind Carl Lewis. The entire Houston track team beat him. 230 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: Lee Burrell Bwell was second, Herky Walls was in first 231 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: place in the two hundred meters and boy, they sucked 232 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: him up like this one. The baby drawed him. But 233 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 1: he was almost there. Oh man, Texas, he's a long horn. 234 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: His nineteen his senior year in nineteen eighty I believe 235 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: he scored eleven touchdowns for the long Lost Bias. Eighty 236 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: two was his last year. I'm looking at his Wikipedia now. 237 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: He was a seventh round draft pick the Oilers in 238 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty three. I had to guard him in preseason. Yeah, 239 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: he had me too. One Moon missed him. You guys 240 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: playing Olympic speed huh? You guys played at Philadelphia. It 241 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: was around eighty five, eighty six, somewhere in there. And 242 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: my other cousin, Spagnola, the tight end for the Eagles. 243 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: He was having a big day the first half. Yes, 244 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: you remember him, Yes, And so just so happened. Our 245 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: sports editor was on the trip with us, and he 246 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: comes up to me at halftime, he goes, okay, Philadelphia wins. 247 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna have your name in the headline and the byeline. 248 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: You do a story on that night.

I had the forty nine 330 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: ers because I thought top the autumn they were a 331 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: more complete team, even though Mahomes is just out of 332 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 1: this world and he proved he's out of this world 333 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: at the end of you thought you thought so. He 334 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: thought the team that went four and twelve last year 335 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: was going to win the Super Bowl? I did. What's 336 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: wrong with that? Okay? Come on, they was good. They 337 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: had he didn't say at the beginning of the season 338 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: after improving, Jimmy, I don't know. He's not saying. He's 339 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: saying that he picked him on Monday. Have been listening 340 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: while you're on the slopes, you know what. It occurred 341 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: to me for about five seconds. Then I saw what 342 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: time it was, and I said, nah, they're on their own. 343 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: Almost got Wally pipped last week because Kyle Yeoman's was 344 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: a terrific replacement for you, Mickey, How do you know 345 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: he wasn't replacing Everson because he was sitting there Jack Blackery. 346 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: He did the Jack, Yes, he did the Ready. It 347 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,719 Speaker 1: wasn't as good as Mickey's though, but and I sent 348 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 1: it to you guys, and when he said it wasn't 349 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: as good, I was thinking bad. It was right, it 350 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: wasn't as Channing. Right, Yeah, that's right. I got one 351 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: more thing about the Super Bowl. This can tie back 352 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: into the Cowboys. I guess. I just got curious and 353 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: I counted it up. Since Brady won his first Super 354 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: Bowl and that's about twenty seasons ago, how many quarterbacks 355 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: have won a Super Bowl in this league since then, 356 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: in the last twenty years? Oh wow? Not many? If 357 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: we if we eliminate Brady's well, count Brady. Count Brady. Oh, 358 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: count Brady because he's won multiple He's just won. Not 359 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: how many he's won, but how many different quarterbacks have 360 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl? Can you want to run him down? Roethlisberger. 361 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: I could be wrong here, but let's guess him. Let's 362 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: guess him. Okay, okay, I'm not naming the Brady, Brees, Rogers, Roethlisburger, Wilson, Wilson, 363 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: there's five right there. I can't believe Eli Manning, Yeah, 364 00:21:51,600 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 1: Peyton Petting, Nick Foles. Yep, Brad Johnson got one former 365 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,959 Speaker 1: Cowboy and Pat Mahomes. So there's ten. There's ten over 366 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: twenty years, over twenty years. And how many of these 367 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: guys are going to the Hall of Fame? Pretty much 368 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: all of them for Folds probably, and they're not Brad 369 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: Jones and Pat Mahomes as well. On his way and 370 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: it is over and well I started it season after 371 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: when when Brad started his runk over since Okay, it's 372 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: a eighteen years. Probably not Flacco either, probably not Flacco. 373 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 1: But it is a man, is it a quarterbacks league? 374 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: Russ Wilson's going to Hall of Fame? I think, so 375 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: you got to have a great one. And they're already 376 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: touting the Philadelphia Eagles and costs them wins? Am I 377 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 1: missing something? They're they're not winning the division. They're looking 378 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: for them to go to the Bowl. They're not going 379 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: to fifteen years with you, William, trust me, I'm with you. 380 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: But this is amazing how this is the same thing 381 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: that happened last year. They would think Couston wentz the 382 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: whole time. I mean, he hadn't even had come off 383 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: of an injury. Still they had confidence in he in 384 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, not just him, but how this team 385 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: was built. They are already tulling them as the new 386 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions for twenty twenty one. I just think 387 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: that is just sounds thirsty. You know, It's like somebody 388 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: just loves Philadelphia so much. Not somebody somebody E'SE. You 389 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: guys are out there and that John, What the heck 390 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,239 Speaker 1: is going on out there? Why they Why do they 391 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: feel this way? I haven't I haven't gotten that sense, 392 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: but I'm sure. I'm sure it's out there, because there's 393 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: no doubt it's out there. Yeah. Well, they took a 394 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: step back a year ago, but then they kind of 395 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: withstood them things this past year and and made a 396 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: run to the playoffs. So you're always looking for that 397 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: next team to welling the Cowboys what they're doing. Reason 398 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: why Steve Atwater can go to the Pro Football Hall 399 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: of Fame and Deverson Walls or Woodson think about that. 400 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: Steve Atwater. It was a box safety. More safeties are 401 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 1: getting in now, though, Cliff Harris, I'm still man. Brian 402 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 1: Dawkins beat me out when I was there, so we 403 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: gotta get over. You can keep on going, I mean, 404 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: we can keep on going, not just me, I mean 405 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: all the other dB they thought the Brian Dawkins before 406 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 1: Cliff Harris. Yeah, let's think about that. I mean, come on, 407 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: how many free agents are in the Hall of Fame. 408 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: I deserved to be in the Hall of Fame. He 409 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: sure did. Brian Dawkins was no free agent, been tuted 410 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: his whole career. No surprise that he did well. Yeah, 411 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: Cliff Harris, now that that's a story. Six Pro Bowls. 412 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: Come on, this guy, captain Captain Crash took this long, 413 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 1: took this long. Yeah, took the extra ten guys. Okay, So, Rob, 414 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: you said that the quarterback Super Bowl thing might tie 415 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: into the Cowboys Wayne, because you've got to have am 416 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: I making your prediction right now. You've got to have 417 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: a really good to great quarterback. I think that's obvious. 418 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 1: You got to have players around him. I think it 419 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: just speaks to the Cowboys. They are sold on Dak Prescott. 420 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: I know he hasn't been signed to a long term 421 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: deal yet. I think everybody feels like eventually it will 422 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: get done. I think it speaks to once again, why 423 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy's the new head coach here, because they are 424 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: sold on Dak and they found a veteran coach who 425 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,640 Speaker 1: has been around Hall of Fame quarterbacks and they feel 426 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: he can help elevate Dak to another level. That's that's 427 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: a big reason why McCarthy, who was also sold on 428 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: Dak in the interview process. Yeah, Stephen said that he 429 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: had a video reel of Dak going back to his 430 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: combine workout when he met with the Joneses on that 431 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 1: Saturday and throughout his career and showed the progression and 432 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 1: where how he's evolved in this league. And I'm sure 433 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: that that played a huge role as well in them connecting, 434 00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: you know, absolutely. So the Sunday big news drop on 435 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: Super Bowl Sunday was well, looks like Cowboys are gonna 436 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: be franchise tagging y Yeah, if I see that one 437 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: more time, it's fired up. It's like, of course they're 438 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: gonna If they don't get them signed, they're gonna franchise him. 439 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: And then there's the crawler every day and every day 440 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: I'm on vacation, I said, oh, I guess I missed something. 441 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: So that was are they going to sign him? Well, 442 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: if they will if they don't have a contract. But 443 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: they don't have a contract. I mean, what are the 444 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: odds of them going franchise versus you know, signing him 445 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: to this big deal. Well, you can start franchising guys 446 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: on February twenty fifth, and I think you have to ten. 447 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, if it doesn't get done by them, they'll franchise. 448 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: And there has been rumors out there saying, well, Dak 449 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: wants more, the Cowboys are really holding out. What is 450 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: the truth is he does he want more than what 451 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: the what's offered on the table? Is that to hold up? Well, 452 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: if you listened to what Stephen Jones said, dude and 453 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: mans they were going to put they they said and 454 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 1: I didn't have to come out and say it, that 455 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,640 Speaker 1: they were going to make him a top five paid 456 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: quarterback and it wasn't enough. But what you haven't heard 457 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: is what they're asking for. That's one thing, and we's 458 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: been out of this whole narrative. What are they asking for? 459 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 1: It must be crazy because it seems like they had 460 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: an impass right and even more so now when Dak 461 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: basically spoke up at the Super Bowl well basically saying yeah, 462 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: go ahead, Mick. What he told the morning he sounded 463 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: you know a little frustrated this hasn't been done. And 464 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,919 Speaker 1: the question was to Dak, what would you show up 465 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: for the voluntary program without a deal, and he said, 466 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: we'll just cross that when we get to it. But 467 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: also and so they also said it's time for them 468 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: to pay me and you can print that. Wow. So 469 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: so you get away from the from the comfis you 470 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: know what happens. Number one, there's an agent telling you, Okay, 471 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: here's our stance. At number two, the NFLPA puts pressure 472 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: on you to make sure you don't give a hometown discount. 473 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: And so because they want to see everybody making it 474 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: much and you reset what the quarterback market is. So 475 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: he has an obligation to all other players to get 476 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: as much right he can get in the NFL. And 477 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,719 Speaker 1: you know, you're there with all the NFLPA guys at 478 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl and specifically all other quarterbacks. He has 479 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: that r yeah and looks so you know, the last 480 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: four years and the Cowboys know this, he's been one 481 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: of the best bargains in the league in terms of 482 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: his salaries a fourth round rookie contract versus what he's 483 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: done in the league. The Cowboys want to get him signed. 484 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: The report came out ever since I think Sunday morning 485 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: ESPN saying it's likely heading that way towards the tag. Well, okay, fine, 486 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: but there are still six weeks weeks until they have 487 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: to make a decision whether the tax. You know, so 488 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: six weeks to try to get something done, A lot 489 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: can happen. And it reminds me a little bit mick 490 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: of the DeMarcus Lawrence thing last year, where we felt 491 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: like players don't like the tag. Okay, they don't want 492 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: to be tagged, they want the long term security. That's 493 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: that's fair and natural. And we thought, we sat here, 494 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: and what if they don't get this thing done with 495 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: the Marcus He's got to have shoulder surgery, all stuff. 496 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: It got done, and it got done, and the deadline 497 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: on that was basically when they got it done, because 498 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: he had to have that surgery in order to be 499 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: ready for the start of the season. Yeah, by the draft. 500 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: He basically had to have that thing done otherwise, you know. Yeah, 501 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: and even after you tag him, you still got five 502 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: months to get him signed or you can't sign them 503 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: to then of course, you know, but again the voluntary program, 504 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: you got a new coach and a tweaked offense, and 505 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: that's where than normal because it is a new coach. 506 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: So then who's in the driver a seat? Then? Yeah, 507 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: because based on bad information right there, then you would 508 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: say that's in the driver seat if he wants to 509 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: go that route, which is a route he has never 510 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: been shown to take. Right. He's always been the company 511 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: man when it came to the kneeling and the Black 512 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: Lives matter. You know, he was in lockstep with Jerry Jones. 513 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: The entire team was so man, this is different for 514 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: me to hear him being so bold and sounded like 515 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: Everson Walls or somebody. Right, I love him, you know. 516 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: And it's not the Cowboys fault that he got drafted 517 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: in the fourth round, right, that's sort of you know 518 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: the argument. So you were gone Alexander Wright from the 519 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: Cowboys draft wide wide receiver nineteen ninety and he was 520 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: a twenty eighth pick in the draft, but there was 521 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: only twenty seven picks in the first round, so he 522 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: was technically a second round pick, right, And his agent 523 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: was saying, no, he's a first round pick. You got 524 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: to get paid like a first round pick. And the 525 00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys like, sorry, it says second round here first pick, 526 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: and that he didn't go to training camp along with 527 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 1: Emmett and he signed first, and then Emmett got done 528 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: the week of the season, but he missed because that 529 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: was their argument. So you're I think the dilemma now is, Okay, 530 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: if we go down this franchise tag route, will Dad 531 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 1: be that guy? Will he be the one that choses 532 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: to be defiant? And even if he does, and they 533 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: still don't get to sign him and he's he has 534 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: to play the tag out for the whole season. I 535 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: really don't think it makes that much of a difference. 536 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: Twenty seven million guaranteed for the one year tag. Yeah, 537 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: but I mean he wasn't gonna do come in and tank. 538 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: He's gonna do yeah right. I mean I'm not saying 539 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: that he's stuck. I'm saying that's just how he is 540 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: as a player. I'm not gonna come in and let 541 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: my team down because I got tagged. No, I wouldn't 542 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: think so either, And so to me, as much as 543 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: we want to see him get I want to see 544 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: him get paid. I think it would be only fair. 545 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: You can look down, you know, Bills probably can look 546 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 1: up and see some stats on all the amazing stuff 547 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: that we could say that, Dak, did you know that 548 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: would gold well in negotiations. You know, it really doesn't 549 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: matter when it comes down to it, whether he's tag 550 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: or not, you're going to see the same Dak Prescott. Yeah, 551 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: I don't think it matter. So I don't think it's 552 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: going to impact the season none whatsoever. Whether he's on, 553 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: The only thing it'll impact is him not being there 554 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: in the offseason if he chooses not to be there. Right, 555 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:32,479 Speaker 1: But you get tagged and you go to training camp, right, 556 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: you got to make up for lost time.

I got my cousin, jim 622 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,320 Speaker 1: I got yeah, Jimmy, Jimmy at one point after his 623 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: first year a second year and was like, well, this 624 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,479 Speaker 1: guy doesn't catch the ball very well. He goes, well, 625 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: you know what, with his speed, they got to cover 626 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: him because you never know when he might catch it. 627 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: I was kind of a book on Bob Hayes when 628 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: he first came here too. Yeah, he turned the other round. 629 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: Ye all right, Um, why else on the Cowboys? What 630 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: are you thinking? Um? Trying to think? What other days 631 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 1: to the next other? Jason Witten saying at the Super 632 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: Bowl coming back, don't please don't. You can start resigning 633 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: players with expiring contracts on February eleventh. So is that 634 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 1: before we do the next show? Or what are we at? 635 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: The third? Fourth? Fourth? So next Tuesday, Next Tuesday, you 636 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: can start signing guys with expiring contracts. Two guys. Why receivers? 637 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: Cooper a right number two priorities behind Randa Randall. Cob 638 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,720 Speaker 1: You gotta get him signed. You gotta get him signed 639 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 1: unless you're sitting creating the draft and you got one 640 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: of these studs whide receivers coming out that you can 641 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 1: really count on. I say you stick with these guys. 642 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: I think Cobbs more likely to come back because of 643 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,320 Speaker 1: McCarthy here, I am. Yeah. I think. I don't know 644 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: if it's I don't know if you're probably a tip 645 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: him over Cooper, but yeah, I think if he was 646 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:07,840 Speaker 1: leaning towards leaving now he's he's running towards stage not 647 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 1: just leaning to McCarthy might have a saying it too. 648 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: It's like, of course I want because because not only 649 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 1: did he want his own assistant coaches, he probably wants 650 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: somebody that has been loyal to him in that locker room. 651 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 1: And when when you think about it, Jason Witten's return, 652 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 1: if if it's a return, would clearly affect Cobb's output. Yes, yes, 653 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,439 Speaker 1: and and that is not good because I'm pretty sure 654 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,280 Speaker 1: last year there were many times when Kyle was saying, 655 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: come to me, it's my this is my time of 656 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: the game, and we were not because we were trying 657 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: to get it to one of our tight ends who 658 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 1: just happened to be a former commentator. Which, by the way, 659 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: you know, Jarwin's restricted, so they've got to give him 660 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 1: a tender at some point. And you would think of 661 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: all the time you've spent developing him, you want him 662 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: back and say he Wit did the media car wash 663 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: at the Super Bowl, and I think one of the 664 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 1: things he said to one of the state maybe Rich Eisen, 665 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: was you know, I understand there's a new coach and 666 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: we've got to have open discussions, and you'd love to 667 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,800 Speaker 1: end it here as a player, but it may have 668 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 1: to be somewhere else. You never know, so I don't 669 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,720 Speaker 1: really know where it's going to be exactly. I gotta 670 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: say he's you know, just form a player's opinion. I 671 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 1: guess I'm a pundit now. I just I think if 672 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: he's going to come back at all, it would have 673 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: to be under a player coach type of situation. I 674 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 1: just don't see how he can help this team going 675 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 1: forward when we need to start thinking of getting younger 676 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: and have more consistency. I think if he's going to 677 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: come in, it should be clearly to just be just 678 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: in the mentor type of status for these two really 679 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:07,280 Speaker 1: upcoming tight ends that we have in Cheltzon and Jawin. 680 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 1: I think those two guys are NFL. They're ready to 681 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: be NFL capable tight ends. They are ready now. Okay, 682 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: So Jarwin a restricted free agent, if you don't have 683 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: a deal done with him, what kind of tender would 684 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: you give him? First round? Second round? Or he's a 685 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 1: free agent, so the low tender I think the second 686 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 1: second he was he was a college free agent and 687 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 1: were undrafted. So if you don't, I mean so. And 688 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 1: the way that works is if a team were to 689 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: sign him. They would not if if he does not 690 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: have a first or second round tender, that team can 691 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: sign him without giving up a draft conversation, whereas if 692 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 1: it was a second round tender, that team would have 693 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 1: to pay the Cowboys a second round pick. I'm thinking 694 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: way back here, but I think like when Miles Austin 695 00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: was coming up and they wanted to keep him, but 696 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 1: he hasn't had been really established it, I think they 697 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 1: put the second round tam. I mean that that kind 698 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: of adequately scares teams off. I feel like from I 699 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: think if you if you really like a guy, because 700 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: it's basically a one year deal and I don't know 701 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: the second what it's going to come to. Probably last 702 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 1: year and a half million or so. Last year, three 703 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: second round tender was three point one million, first round 704 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: was four point five million, and the low tender was 705 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 1: two million. Yeah, so you got to do the second 706 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: and I'm sure this year if it was that three 707 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: over three, then probably getting closer to four and a 708 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:32,399 Speaker 1: half something like that. But it's going to be your 709 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 1: starting tight end. When do they have to make that? 710 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:36,880 Speaker 1: Is it by mid March? They have to make that decision? 711 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 1: Restricted qualifying offers. I think it's by March eighteenth or 712 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: something like that. Right, well, start which is the eighteenth 713 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 1: or so, you can start doing it at some point 714 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: this month, right, you have to have it. No one 715 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 1: can give him a bid, like I think it's like 716 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: within two weeks of the draft, right, that's on the 717 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 1: back end of it establishing the tenders. So you have 718 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: to do it. Yeah, by time free and they've got 719 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 1: a couple other guys, right, I think Cooper Rush is restricted, 720 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 1: but yeah, jar one's the one that really stands out 721 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: what they do there, got a lot of work to do, 722 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 1: a lot. We look at all the free agents, I mean, 723 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 1: Everson named Randall Cobb, Maury Cooper, that's I mean, that's 724 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 1: just scratching the surface. You look on defense. Let's get 725 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: into Byron Jones, Link Collins, Everson, Everson on the Year 726 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: in Special. I was thinking about that coming in Burry 727 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: Church and it's you can watch it online. It's in 728 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: bits and pieces on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. The Year 729 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 1: and Special with Michael Irvin and Everson and Burry Church, 730 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 1: and we were talking about free agency and then the 731 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: needs and Burry Church said that secondary was the biggest 732 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: needed upgrade and they started talking about safeties and Everson say, well, 733 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: say what Biban Jones to safety? I said, and your 734 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: Church went off because he's experienced that. And then I 735 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 1: just start talking my way at cornerback. You've got your 736 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: best corner that I think, I said, can't catch a 737 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: cold in Alaska with ice cubes in his pockets or 738 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 1: something like that. And I want to say more because 739 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 1: of course I think we've all heard it before. The 740 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 1: ice cubes can go anywhere on your body and much deeper, 741 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 1: and that would be a little bit more graphic, but 742 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 1: either way, I still can't catch it. So that's kind 743 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: of where we had. So you had a governor on you, yes, so, 744 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 1: and you know, I think, and I still think this 745 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: guy's I think Biben Jones, but at his experience now 746 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: based on his experience with Barry Church because obviously they 747 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 1: had a big impact on Barried Church in the psychic 748 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 1: because he went off. When I suggested that you put 749 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 1: Bivan Jones at safe, I actually retweeted that, and as 750 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: I quoted, you said, your best quarterback, I can't catch 751 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 1: a cold in Alaska with ice cubes in his pot 752 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 1: He can't, he can't, And we're real about this guy 753 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 1: when the last time Byrn's got an interception of his career, 754 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 1: and he had he had had two in the last 755 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 1: two years. But when you're talking about the person who 756 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 1: was so athletic coming out of the combine, it's not 757 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,799 Speaker 1: hard to take it from cornerback who it's a very 758 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 1: demanding position in regards to immediate contact with a wide 759 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: receiver to where you're going back ten yards back from 760 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Now you can use that intellectual 761 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: and that athletic ability to read plays, sniff out bad passes, 762 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 1: and make more of an impact in the ball game. 763 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 1: We have not had a safety that can do that 764 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 1: for us. Heath was doing his best. Heath is about 765 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: to come out with both arms typed behind his back 766 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,319 Speaker 1: next year because that's the way his labors are going 767 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 1: to have him feeling. And now you're talking about needing 768 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: someone physical, you need someone intelligent in that defensive secondary 769 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 1: and the safety by and Joe to be the guy. 770 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,399 Speaker 1: He had Jeff Heath playing for them, that Sorensen. When 771 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 1: one Thornhill went down, then Sorenson got the opportunity and 772 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 1: that would be the role that you would be looking 773 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 1: forward for Jeff he but Byron Jones had that role, right, 774 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 1: and he didn't do anything. And that's what that's why 775 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 1: Barry Church went off on him. Yeah, and Mike don't 776 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,360 Speaker 1: do that. And let's consider this, Mike Nolan when he 777 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,840 Speaker 1: was asked about cornerbacks, he's or dbs, he said, I 778 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 1: want ball hawking defensive backs. And when Jones did this 779 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,400 Speaker 1: his rookie year, right, it was his rookie year, did both. 780 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,759 Speaker 1: But I'm saying he played safety his rookie Yeah, he 781 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: dabbled at corner, but I think he was mostly a safety. 782 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 1: He's got to be having more experience. Now you're telling 783 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 1: me he didn't learn from his years. He's gonna be 784 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 1: the same guy that he was his rookie year, maybe 785 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: second year too. But it was a better cornerback than 786 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: he was a safe. But here's no doubt he can cover. 787 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: But I'm talking about making plays on the ball. And 788 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: Al Harris, you put him in the position of that 789 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: number twenty for the Cassidy Chiefs last night. I'm sorry 790 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,319 Speaker 1: for the forty nines last night. Right, you can't him 791 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 1: on the wide receiver like that. You're getting the different 792 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: UH outcome as opposed to a safety back, then what 793 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 1: do you need that ability to cover? Yeah, in your 794 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: second day. Here's the thing though, he's he's unrestricted and 795 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 1: usually corners make more money. Does he He has the 796 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 1: option to go somewhere and play what he wants to play. 797 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 1: Now we'll see what is what his market value is 798 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: if he tests the market, if he's a game change 799 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 1: of safety, he can he can make all the money. Okay, 800 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: he may not, he may not want him place. You know, 801 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 1: he's true. You know he kind of had his coming 802 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,359 Speaker 1: out party as a corner. Here's the bottom baking. Either 803 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 1: I wanted to sit back there and look pretty at cornerback, 804 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: but you can't do at safety. You gotta go out 805 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: there and make some plays. And now that's what you 806 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 1: had to do. Here's the bottom line on him. Because 807 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:50,399 Speaker 1: everybody's saying the Cowboys can't afford to resign him, Well, 808 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 1: my next question is why can't they afford to resign him? 809 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:58,479 Speaker 1: Because if other teams are looking at what you just said, 810 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: why are they going to pay so much money more 811 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,720 Speaker 1: than what the Cowboys would offer him? Because he's still 812 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: two interceptions, right, But the problem they look at him 813 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 1: but a Pro Bowl, I mean you use that reference. 814 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 1: Was your analogy was Terrence Williams a couple of years 815 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 1: ago where it felt like, oh they Cowboys can't resign 816 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 1: Terrence at wide receiver. Well the market cooled and they 817 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 1: brought him back. It is different, I think with Byron 818 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,359 Speaker 1: because he has proven to be a Pro Bowl caliber player, 819 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:28,400 Speaker 1: but he's the interceptions are still the same. Right at corner, 820 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: at corner, at corner, you put this man at safety, 821 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: he can roam, he has the ability. Guy. You remember 822 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: when he came out, he was the best thing the 823 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:41,800 Speaker 1: Combine had seen in years. Amazing athlete, amazing. Everything he 824 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 1: did was was jaw dropping. Well then if if they 825 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,400 Speaker 1: do that, then you're in the market for a cornerback 826 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 1: because I ain't trusting Jordan Lewis out there for sixty 827 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 1: plays a game. Have you ever heard of before they 828 00:47:56,239 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: before we saw Minnesota, before we played Bfalo, maybe you 829 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 1: guys had I had never heard of any of their cornerbacks, 830 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: not one of them. And man, which seems Buffalo Okay, 831 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,879 Speaker 1: you can go, Well, I got kid from LSU White 832 00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 1: at corner. Yeah, you got You had guys back there 833 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 1: making plays not just on the Cowboys but against the Patriots. 834 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 1: I mean, the a formidable secondary. These are not big 835 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 1: names back there. You just gotta go find some dogs, man, 836 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:33,280 Speaker 1: they don't have to be names. Just go find some dogs. 837 00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: And that's what being the defensive back is all about. 838 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: A guy that's determined. Not necessarily the best playmaker, but 839 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 1: you got to be determined and put me behind a 840 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 1: good defensive line. And you're talking about a guy not 841 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,799 Speaker 1: just I'm not just talking about basement bogging basement things. 842 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: I'm talking about guys that can make plays that you 843 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 1: can depend on. That's all I'm talking about. Al Harris, 844 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 1: I guess in his interview when I went back and 845 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 1: listened to it yesterday, said I'm big on touching the ball, 846 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:07,279 Speaker 1: touching the ball every day. So well they judge what 847 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 1: they're looking for. I know. I mean, they drilled the 848 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 1: hell out of no he means in the game and well, 849 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,400 Speaker 1: of course, but somebody that can do it. That is 850 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 1: the biggest thing holding this defense back my opinion, they've 851 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:21,440 Speaker 1: been middle of the pack to lower pack. Taways always good, right, 852 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 1: yeah for you. I mean they've been top ten I 853 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 1: think in total yards and all that stuff, but they 854 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 1: haven't impacted the game takeaways. Here's you mentioned Indevius White. 855 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 1: I know for a fact the Cowboys love Tredevious White. 856 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 1: They did, Okay, Taco Charlton in that draft in twenty 857 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: seventeen was a twenty seventh pick. Tredevious White was taken 858 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: by Buffalo one pick ahead of them. Second round, the 859 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys took Cheetawawoozier, and then they took Jordan Lewis in 860 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 1: the third round. I bet you if Tradevious White had 861 00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 1: not been taken by Buffalo one pick ahead of Taco Charleton, 862 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 1: the cow Boys would have taken Tradevious White there. Yeah, 863 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 1: And that's just kind of the way things work. And 864 00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 1: I'll take it a step further. I also know they 865 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 1: love Juju Smith Schuster, Okay, and who was taken right 866 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:19,320 Speaker 1: before Juju Smith Schuster in that draft, Cheeta A. Woozier. 867 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:24,840 Speaker 1: So let's let's say Buffalo doesn't take Tradevius White, the 868 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,399 Speaker 1: Cowboys take Tradevius White. So they've got their cornerback right there, 869 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:30,280 Speaker 1: and then they can and then they could have taken 870 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 1: the wide receiver Juju Smith Schuster in the second round. 871 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,760 Speaker 1: I've talked to guys scouts before, not about those guys particular, 872 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 1: but just you can play that game. Yeah, I know, 873 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 1: and it can drive you crazy if you do it, 874 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 1: because you could just go back for years and it's always, 875 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: you know, there's a clump of guys and you're not 876 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 1: you know, but we know that they because they had 877 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 1: them in for visits and they love those guys and 878 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 1: it's interesting. Yeah, things could have played out well if 879 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 1: you go back to was it twenty fifteen when they 880 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 1: took Martin was a twenty fourteen fourteen fourteen mark, right, 881 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 1: so you know who they wanted. They wanted the linebacker 882 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: that Pittsburgh right, try Shasier, Shasier and it was like, oh, now, 883 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,839 Speaker 1: what do we do? Pittsburgh took Shasier and that's when 884 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: the whole thing with the A and M quarterback came 885 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:24,000 Speaker 1: up and then it was like him, yeah XFL quarterback 886 00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,960 Speaker 1: l is he in? The L is not now? But 887 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:31,279 Speaker 1: by the way, anything, guys going to the game next. 888 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:33,320 Speaker 1: I'm not going to the game, but I'm gonna watch it. 889 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 1: As the Dallas Renegades opened the XFL season at four 890 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 1: o'clock on Sunday, Coach Bob Bob stoops coach fifty yard 891 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:50,479 Speaker 1: line seats, not you know, very healthy enough, to start 892 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,720 Speaker 1: the first game. I don't. I don't think that Landry 893 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,879 Speaker 1: Jones is healthy enough talking to renegades here. Maybe try 894 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:03,040 Speaker 1: Land stud Yard playing by the way, talking an interview 895 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:10,439 Speaker 1: with Lance Dunbar. He's got some dreads working night. Okay, okay, yeah, 896 00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 1: do they make him cut their hand before the game? 897 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 1: Can talk? If you do todos for years and years? Okay. 898 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 1: So here's how nerdy I a might look at the 899 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 1: schedule because I don't. I don't think I'm gonna be 900 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,799 Speaker 1: back in time for that game on Sunday. But uh, 901 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:29,879 Speaker 1: they're on the road the next two weeks, and then 902 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 1: the next game they're back at home. I'm gonna go, yeah, 903 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 1: sit and stands. Hey, there's there's guys on these rosters 904 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 1: that I've heard of, which is different from that Spring 905 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 1: league last year. The Alliance of American Football, and of 906 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:47,439 Speaker 1: course Darryl Johnston is the director of player person Get ticket. 907 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,319 Speaker 1: You can get some tickets here? Yeah, I try, all right? 908 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 1: I think that does it? Yeah, Okay, that do it? 909 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: We talked cowboys, so who else? So last week I 910 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,839 Speaker 1: had to bail out early other free agents, other free 911 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,239 Speaker 1: agents that we need that we really need. Well on 912 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:07,839 Speaker 1: the cornerback front. Anthony Brown is a free agent. Would 913 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,920 Speaker 1: he be a priority to kind of protect yourself for? 914 00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,399 Speaker 1: He missed half the season and I can't imagine he's 915 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 1: got much market value. It's just hard because with a 916 00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:21,520 Speaker 1: new staff, what they're looking, don't know what they value. 917 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: And when we talk to him last week, I know, 918 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:25,680 Speaker 1: skip pizza. This is about the running back. So I 919 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 1: love Zeke and Tony Pollard. But but I was going 920 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,280 Speaker 1: to say, but we haven't really gotten into the personnel 921 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 1: side of things as of last week. It's more talking, 922 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:37,320 Speaker 1: you know, philosophy and so good. He's under wrapp. We 923 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 1: have no problem with him. Yeah, now, and then on 924 00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 1: the defensive line, you got MALIEK. Collins and Robert Quinn. 925 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:46,800 Speaker 1: Can you get one of them back? I gotta have 926 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 1: Quinn back, right, Michael, And I'm restricted, I think restricted 927 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 1: thirty five, going on thirty six, maybe retiring. Do you 928 00:53:55,719 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 1: think so at thirty four? He turns it turned thirty five? Yeah, 929 00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 1: I don't care how I'm looking at the outcome. I'm 930 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: looking at what he did. I don't really care about 931 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 1: the age itself. If that's right, Brady should have been 932 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,359 Speaker 1: gone a long time ago. I'm talking about if you're 933 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,000 Speaker 1: talking to the age. Yeah, that's one thing. If you know, 934 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 1: I'm not saying retire him. He may have that in 935 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 1: his mind, is what I'm saying. Well, I hope not. Yeah, 936 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 1: I hope. I hope that he feels rejuvenated with a 937 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 1: new coach. Sometimes that makes a big difference. And you 938 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,240 Speaker 1: guys are thinking one thing like, okay, if Jason Garrett 939 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:25,799 Speaker 1: comes back, man, a lot of you, you know, right, 940 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: you're thinking things like that. Then all of a sudden, 941 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,240 Speaker 1: you got a new coach come in. Oh hey, guys, 942 00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 1: you know you just thought to feel a little different 943 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 1: about your chances, and you say, why not roll the dice. 944 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:39,240 Speaker 1: Here's your defensive line free agents. Michael Bennett, Malie Collins, 945 00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 1: Christian Covington, Kerry Hyder, Robert Quinn, Daniel Ross is restricted 946 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,240 Speaker 1: and Antoine Woods is exclusive rights, which means so everybody, 947 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:52,239 Speaker 1: he's not going anything everybody. It's a long way. And 948 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 1: then you gotta add, will Tyrone Crawford come back after 949 00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:00,040 Speaker 1: dual hipster? No? Yeah, I don't think so. Yeah, I 950 00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 1: promise you. I'm still a worried about Vandress, I really am. 951 00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 1: And Crawford has a year left, it's at a high number. 952 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 1: But if he can be if he comes back, he's 953 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 1: coming at a different salary. Okay, but coming off the 954 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 1: if you if you're trying to be a multiple defense 955 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 1: with Mike Nolan, I think he could fit that if 956 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 1: he's healthy, because he can kind of do whatever you 957 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,440 Speaker 1: need him to do across the front. Yeah, and he's 958 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 1: a leader. Man, there's this time if he's willing. Yeah, yeah, 959 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 1: you have to manage his time, you know, somebody coming 960 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:35,000 Speaker 1: off with those injuries and replace me as you got them. Well, yeah, 961 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,480 Speaker 1: you know, we sit here and talk about the offense 962 00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:42,800 Speaker 1: and talk about DAK. The problem is the defense because 963 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: they did not win a game when they didn't score 964 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:49,120 Speaker 1: thirty points. Sometimes you gotta win twenty four twenty one, 965 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 1: you know, and and they never did it. The Super 966 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 1: Bowl should have been won, what twenty four twenty right 967 00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:02,240 Speaker 1: until the garbage touchdown? Right? Correct? Well, and if the Niners, 968 00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 1: you know, are able to get some first downs at 969 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,160 Speaker 1: the end of the game, they won at twenty to seventeen. 970 00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 1: What's going back to that. Shanahan's taken a lot of heat. 971 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:13,120 Speaker 1: He's taken a lot of heat. You know what I 972 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 1: think I think Atlanta Falcon's Patriots Super Bowl is feeding 973 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 1: into some of that because they twenty eight three all that. 974 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,799 Speaker 1: But I went back and watched the game again last night, 975 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 1: Nerdy me, and you know, there were things that happened 976 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:30,400 Speaker 1: that were out of his control that it wasn't his fault, 977 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 1: like well, he didn't run the ball enough or he 978 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:36,279 Speaker 1: threw the ball too much. We're back to the whole thing. 979 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 1: Whatever works, is right, you know, this whole thing about 980 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 1: the half that you know, and you know in Troy 981 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 1: kind of started it by saying, oh, they're not going 982 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 1: to call time out. You know, I thought the same thing. Okay, 983 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,640 Speaker 1: But as I told you yesterday, it's like, here's what 984 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,279 Speaker 1: it would have happened had had they left they called 985 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 1: time out, and they don't, and they got a punt. 986 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,279 Speaker 1: How close did that guy come on the punt to 987 00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 1: throwing the ball back and getting it down at the 988 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:08,440 Speaker 1: two yard line? Right? And now now San Francisco's got 989 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 1: the ball at the two with a minute to go, 990 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:14,919 Speaker 1: and Kansas City's got all three timeouts, so you're gonna 991 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 1: have to come out otherwise you're punting and they're gonna 992 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 1: call timeout, timeout, timeout, and they're gonna get the ball 993 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 1: back at the fifty forty yard line and now, And 994 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure that's what he was thinking. He wasn't thinking, Oh, 995 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: I got to take the ball and score. He was thinking, 996 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 1: I can't let them score. I can't score. I think 997 00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 1: you're you're onto something. Everson talked about how the defense 998 00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:39,200 Speaker 1: didn't make the plays. That's not that's not Kyle Shanahan 999 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 1: calling plays. Jimmy Gee's got Emmanuel Sanders deep. He's got 1000 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 1: me right, I mean, play the game. That's to play 1001 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 1: the game. And then he got criticized for throwing the 1002 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:51,480 Speaker 1: ball in the fourth quarter. Well, if you go look 1003 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 1: at their last possession, I counted up eight passes they 1004 00:57:56,880 --> 00:58:00,720 Speaker 1: had they threw after it was twenty four to twenty. Well, 1005 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 1: of course you're you only got a minute or so left. 1006 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 1: You got to throw the ball every down. So it 1007 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 1: wasn't like he abandoned their game plan in the fourth quarter. 1008 00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:12,680 Speaker 1: If he hits the receiver, we're not even having this 1009 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:16,520 Speaker 1: conver and he's wide open. Wow, were replaying Montana to 1010 00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:21,440 Speaker 1: John Taylor. Highlights from that game. How was I went 1011 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 1: down just to see the end of the last drive 1012 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 1: I did? I was comfortably remember, Yeah you see, yeah, 1013 00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:35,880 Speaker 1: you see John. It's a great Yeah. All right, we're 1014 00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 1: back with more Talking Cowboys next Tuesday. Yes, this has 1015 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 1: been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the 1016 00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
