He was troubled in Arizona, Arizona in trouble. Okay, 75 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 4: a lot of Josh Dobbs and the rest of the 76 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 4: league is find out what the Cowboys Orleans found out 77 00:03:59,080 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 4: last year. 78 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 3: Making it up as you go, Hey, it's been. 79 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 4: When the first doll you don't have much preparation on it. 80 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 4: He's good. 81 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: But but this Cardinals said you, I mean. 82 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 4: The Cardinals, this Panthers team, Carolina Panthers, This Panthers team 83 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 4: is you know there there was the fans threatning to 84 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 4: march on the stadium on Sunday. They pull that threat back. 85 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 4: You know, you know Frank Reich is taking over. The mean, 86 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 4: they're in desperation mode because they have to have a win. 87 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 4: So there this is the opportunity for them to change 88 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 4: the scene. So the Cowboys cannot go in your thinking, 89 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 4: this is the one of the Cardinals and they're just 90 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 4: gonna lay down. They have to do what they did 91 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 4: against the Giants. Go in there and take care of business. 92 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: It's going to be a heavy cowboy crowd as well, 93 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 2: North Carolina is a is a it's Washington Commander's territory, 94 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 2: but it's a heavy cowboy influence down there, so it's 95 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: it's going to be that kind of kind of crack 96 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: like when you go to Carrot, when you go out 97 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 2: the Arizona, it's gonna heavy influence. So Carolina's gonna be 98 00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: the same same way out there. So what you think, 99 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 2: I think. 100 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 5: This is you're going up against a team and a 101 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,679 Speaker 5: fan base that's the most miserable in the NFL because 102 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 5: they're one in eight and they don't even have their 103 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 5: own draft pick. So I mean that's at least all 104 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 5: the other teams that suck, you know, are hoping for 105 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,559 Speaker 5: Caleb Williams or something. I know they just drafted Bryce 106 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 5: Young anyways, but but still, you know, this is a 107 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 5: team that is not going anywhere and doesn't even isn't 108 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 5: even set. 109 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 2: Up for April. 110 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 5: So it's it's just a bad situation. 111 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 4: The Cowboys that said we run on race, they talked 112 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 4: about that we're not focusing nobody else, and I worried 113 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 4: about the Eagles, and clearly they should not be worried 114 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 4: about what's going on in Carolina. Thing that you know 115 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 4: again after the game, because they talked about, yeah, the Giants, 116 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 4: they got coaching issues, they got quarterback issues, but no 117 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 4: one cares about your injury. We can't worry about that. 118 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 4: We got to focus on us and doing what we 119 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 4: need to do. Any Cowboys to take that same attitude 120 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 4: this week, focus on errors. 121 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: You need to get better at. 122 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 4: They need to get the ball to Brandon Cooks. What 123 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 4: they do I think about McCarthy started them on this 124 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 4: fantasy team because I don't play fantasy football. Black boy 125 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 4: got a whole lot of did somebody did somebody your 126 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 4: house plays? I mean, opening paths of the game went 127 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 4: to Brandon Cook. So don't tell me you wasn't targeting 128 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 4: Brandon Cook. 129 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 2: And you see the media guy pay you know they 130 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: don't play no fantasy football man Brandon Cook. And then 131 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: you see what they highlighted on here Cooks was performance 132 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: against the Giants tied him for a second in a 133 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 2: single game this season in twenty twenty three, one Tyreek 134 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: killed two No Brown. Brandon Cooks up here right here 135 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 2: tyed with no Brown. So there you go. 136 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 4: So and and is that a metaphor for life? 137 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 2: Cowboy was more? 138 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 4: Brown was no good Cowboy got rid of me, went 139 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 4: the Houston Cowboys traded for Brandon Cooks, and they both 140 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 4: tied for the with the second best third best game 141 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 4: this season. That's crazy. 142 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: We've seen it worse around the least. I mean that's crazy. 143 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 4: I mean, look at what wait, get ready, Josh, for 144 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 4: a second, we thought what first. I'm not saying the 145 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 4: Cowboys regretted getting away of of getting rid of door Brown. 146 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 4: We've seen enough of that. But we seen enough of 147 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 4: that Buffalo. We see Buckeye, we seen another of that, 148 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 4: but he was The bottom line is, though, is we 149 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 4: expect this Brandon? Could We certainly expect that from from 150 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 4: North Brandon before opportunity he's at back to back, he's 151 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 4: had opportunity to go back to Jacksonville. A third down 152 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 4: be played. No, he never dried to an intercept Sharon 153 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 4: Moore here, Brown, I mean, you love to mess out. 154 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: And knowing around on that whatever. Man, But anyway, they 155 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 2: just what's his number down there? He don't know, good, 156 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 2: don't know. 157 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 4: Eighty three if he did want anyhow, he's been out 158 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 4: the highlights last two weeks and he winded them all. 159 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: Because his hands been in the way. 160 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 5: Passes. 161 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 3: I don't know what. 162 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 5: I do think though, that this this stretch right here, 163 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 5: from when you're looking at it from the outside, it 164 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 5: looks like it's you're kind of just not paying attention 165 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 5: much to whatever the Cowboys do. You take it with 166 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 5: a grain of salt, but I think this can be 167 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 5: a really beneficial stretch for the Cowboys because they can 168 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 5: just get all their ducks in a row. They got 169 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 5: cooks involved, they're getting the offensive line kind of stabilized 170 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 5: a little bit. They found something in ric o'dowdell, and 171 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 5: I think all these things. When you're playing week to 172 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 5: week against really good teams, you're game planning so much 173 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 5: against what that other team is doing. Right now, they 174 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 5: can truly play their own race. It's almost like a 175 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 5: mid season preseason where you still got to win these 176 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 5: games and that's the priority, but you're able to try 177 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 5: out so many different things that you can then carry 178 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 5: over into Philadelphia, Seattle, Detroit, all those things. 179 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 2: This is SEC week, Okay, you look at the SEC. 180 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 2: You got Alabama playing nobody, U T. Chattanooga, somebody playing 181 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 2: Louisiana and roll. I mean, that's what this is right now. 182 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 2: So you've got a team that you should be here's 183 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: another opportunity where do we need to work on the 184 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 2: run game. You need to make some improvements to this 185 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: run game here, figure out how you can get Tony 186 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 2: Pollard back to where he was. And so maybe that's 187 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 2: implementing doubtle more like you did, Zeke. But you need 188 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 2: to work on some things right here this week as 189 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 2: you get ready for the Commanders on Thanksgiving, the Seattle 190 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: and then Philadelphia. 191 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think that's also these three games are 192 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 5: a progression. I think the Giants are probably I mean, 193 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 5: Giants and Panthers are one and the same. But you 194 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 5: played against Tommy DeVito. I mean, Bryce Young is not 195 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 5: that so I mean it gets a little bit better, 196 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 5: and then Washington should be pretty good. And then you 197 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 5: start your stretch. And while you're doing this, and I know, 198 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 5: I understand the players and coaches can talk about running 199 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 5: their own race, but as people on the outside, you're 200 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 5: looking at Philadelphia playing Kansas City, Buffalo whatever they got 201 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 5: going on over there, and then San Francisco. But you 202 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 5: got you're you're doing these three and those three and 203 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 5: then when you play against Philadelphia, Division League could be 204 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 5: on the line of that game Buffalo, I mean that 205 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 5: ship is. Yeah, it's bad. But but you got Kansas 206 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 5: City and San Francisco, which is two games. 207 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 4: Buffalo they got a decent defense, they got to squashed 208 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 4: Booklyn quarterbacks. 209 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 3: They what I'm saying, say three best players on defense. 210 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 4: What I'm saying is stop going to Buffalo as because 211 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 4: I hate this. And I almost had a spanking going 212 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 4: into the game the other day.

In the locker room, 284 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 4: Calvin Walkin was talking about, you know, about the stretch 285 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 4: and now Buffalo doesn't count and that's a bad battle 286 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 4: of the team. So they beat Buffalo, they don't count. 287 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 2: How can we So the Cowboy's gonna be Buffalo. 288 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 4: That's not a good win anymore. That's not a good win. 289 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 4: I mean, but that's how the media gets started creating 290 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 4: these things in their head and about the team and 291 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 4: where they are. You know, they don't don't prove nothing 292 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 4: to go win in Buffalo now because Buffalo is not good? 293 00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 2: What what are you talking about? 294 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 4: So anyway, we're walking into the game Sunday, young side 295 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 4: and eye and he said, this is a good game 296 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,199 Speaker 4: with the Cowboys to sit uh, Cooper Rush and make 297 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 4: Trey Lance to backup quarterback and get packed and Trey 298 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 4: Lance some action. I'm like, what, No and negative? And 299 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 4: I won't let him explain his reasoning. But but but 300 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 4: my thing is this is he said they should they should, 301 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 4: They should have no trouble beating the Giants. They need 302 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 4: to find out what they got. Trey Lance a perfect game, 303 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 4: he said. And I'm like the problem with the Cowboys 304 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 4: is they haven't always made the main thing the main thing, 305 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 4: and the main thing is trying to win these games. 306 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 4: Get better this year so you can continue this momentum 307 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 4: going to the playoffs. That can get hurt got hurt 308 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 4: the Giant. Cooper Rush needs reps to say we know 309 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 4: what we have. Yeah, that was years ago. We haven't. 310 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 4: He hasn't played a lot this year. You can't assume 311 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 4: that he's just automatically gonna pick up where he left 312 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 4: last year this year, you know, without any reps, and 313 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 4: you need to get him as much reps because it's 314 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 4: all about doing what you can to win right now 315 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 4: this year to set yourself up for the future. The 316 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 4: Tree Lance evaluation you're gonna get in practice, you'll get 317 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 4: in the free season. 318 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: It can wait, all right. 319 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 5: So my logic behind this was, first of all, you've 320 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 5: gotten Cooper Rush work this year too, right, I mean 321 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 5: they've had blowouts, yeah, both wins and losses. They've had 322 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 5: Cooper Rush come into the game. Trey Lance has now 323 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 5: had has now had however many weeks it's been nine, 324 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 5: ten weeks whatever in the system. So you're not throwing 325 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 5: them to the wolves in terms of not knowing the system, 326 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 5: not knowing the Cowboys system. And for me, I'm thinking, 327 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 5: you're at home. You're at home. You're also playing against 328 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 5: Tommy DeVito. Okay, so this is not like Trey Lance 329 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 5: should now be the backup quarterback in Carolina. I'm not 330 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 5: saying that because you're on the road, you're against Bryce 331 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 5: Young whatever, all this stuff against the Giants. My point was, 332 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 5: and and this is where I disagree with making the 333 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 5: main thing the main thing that that's a contingent plan 334 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 5: like contingency plan like it's not it's not a you're 335 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 5: not planning for for your backup quarterback to play. Anyways. 336 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 5: My point was that if it got to that point, 337 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 5: then you should be able to beat the Giants with 338 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 5: whoever you're playing that quarterback. 339 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 4: Regardless, well you should have been having to beat Arizona 340 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 4: with whoever you planning the quarterback. This don't work that way. 341 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 4: And secondly that the trade lance is only a conversation 342 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 4: because they traded for him. 343 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 3: There's no other team in the league said hey, let's 344 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: get at third string quarterback. 345 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 4: No one's trying to do that is if we don't. 346 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 5: Know what but not everyone's third string quarterback was a 347 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 5: former number one overall pick. 348 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 4: That's not the Cowboys issue. That's that's a media issue, 349 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 4: and that's a that's a hype issue. But for the 350 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 4: for the Cowboys, they're not looking at their thirstring quarterback. 351 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 4: Hey that's a former number one pick. No, they're looking 352 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 4: at it. That's a guy we got in the fourth 353 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 4: round for for fourth round pick to be our third 354 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 4: quarterback and develop for the future. It's not an urgency here. 355 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 2: You're trying to play college from that. That's that's something 356 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: that you do with that in a college game. You 357 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 2: don't do that in professional football, especially when you the 358 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 2: way the rules are set. If it was like the 359 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 2: rules were set that you know, hey, you can go 360 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 2: ahead play Trey Lance, where they set their Rostrup to 361 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 2: go ahead play, they didn't. So, no, you can't do that, 362 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 2: especially against a team where Dak has already gotten hurt. No, 363 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 2: we're watching We're every week. We are watching quarterbacks go 364 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 2: down and get hurt every week. You can't sit around 365 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 2: here be that arrogant. They're not good enough to be 366 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 2: that arrogant. Is hey man, Trey, you ain't ever thrown 367 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 2: the pass for us, but's go ahead and get in 368 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 2: this game and go get this work in. No, maybe 369 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 2: that is not. This is not the time or place 370 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 2: to try to see anything from Trey Lance. 371 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 5: To me, it was if there was there was one 372 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 5: game on this schedule where you could do that, that 373 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 5: was the game. 374 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 4: As a as a team, as a front off of 375 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 4: the coach and staff, I cannot take that that that's 376 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 4: that's being disrespect for the game of the team that 377 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 4: I'm gonna plan going into the game that hey, We're 378 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 4: gonna blow this team him out and I'm going to 379 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 4: give my third stream quarterbacks some work so I can 380 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 4: figure out what he is for next year. That's just 381 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 4: the wrong mindset, even if you're I understand your logic, 382 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 4: but that's not the mindset you want to have you 383 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 4: need to have you to display. It's just disrespectful to 384 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 4: the game. 385 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 2: All right, that's college that's a college football mentality. I mean, 386 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 2: you can do that at college football, and then the 387 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 2: rules allow you to do that. But the way you 388 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 2: can predict the. 389 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 4: Blow up, yeah too, yes, and then you then that 390 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 4: Plati State comes down and beat your butt. You know, 391 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 4: that's about what some people who are who fired helping 392 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 4: the Michigan do. Then they go they went to Michigan 393 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 4: do and did. 394 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 2: Before everybody cut that in from messing with app the roll. 395 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 4: But so so, I guess what I'm saying is, in 396 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 4: one hand, we got people in the cowboy should beat 397 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 4: these teams, and then we got people that they can't win. 398 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 4: Like I was already saying, well, they gonna be Buffalo. 399 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 4: That's not a good win. 400 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 3: What I mean, it doesn't really matter at one level 401 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 3: whether the good wins bad ones. 402 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 2: You just gotta stack them. 403 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, you don't apologize. 404 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 2: For win seventeen of them. And there's a small ones. 405 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 4: And Buffalo will be a desperate team. I don't care 406 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,679 Speaker 4: what their record is. Their quarterback is a gambler. Who 407 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 4: can you know, you don't know what's gonna happen. 408 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 5: It'll be a good test because that'll be in Buffalo too. 409 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 5: And when you're going with test, it's a game. We 410 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 5: can talk about two things at once though, Like we 411 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 5: can talk about it being a game and a good test, 412 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 5: and they're not mutually. 413 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: What I'm saying, they're all tests is right, stars, they 414 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 2: do the stars. 415 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 5: But I understand. I understand, man, I understand it. 416 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 2: I understand it. This is Arizona. 417 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 5: No, I understand. Like taking words out of context and 418 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 5: meaning out of context. It's fun to do. But but 419 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 5: at the same thing, No, it's a test because that's 420 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 5: outdoor game. Going in to the playoffs. You gotta go 421 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 5: play Philly up in Philly. That's that's a good test 422 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 5: to have of how you play outdoors up there. I mean, 423 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 5: it's not that it's not a it's not a game 424 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 5: on the schedule either. 425 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 4: It's just well, all games in that sense, all games 426 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 4: of tests, the Carolina games and every game is a test. 427 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 4: But it's just the mindset that Buffalo is a test. 428 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 4: Buffalo is a good team, you know, and and regardless 429 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 4: of where you are, what what's. 430 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 5: The test for Carolina going into as it relates to 431 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 5: your playoffs? 432 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 6: What what are you? 433 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 5: What are you getting tested on here? 434 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 3: Okay, Arizona, Cala, Grass, can you take care of you 435 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 3: on the road? 436 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 5: So it's Buffalo on the road. 437 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 4: Every game with a test, is my point, And it's 438 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 4: come on. 439 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 2: If I'm listening to you, Arizona was not a test, 440 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 2: and we just saw him go out there and lose. 441 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 5: It's a different kind of test. No, no, no, like 442 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 5: I'm saying, if Carolina, I'm saying, come on, come on, 443 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 5: come on, get out of here with that. No, it's 444 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 5: if Carol, if you played Carolina the same weekend that 445 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 5: you're playing Buffalo, is that the same thing? 446 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 4: Certainly every three weeks. 447 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 5: Before the season, but up in Buffalo. But is that 448 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 5: the same thing as playing Carolina that weekend? 449 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 4: I really all all games chess, they're all chests. You 450 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 4: only get seventeen of them, which is why DeMarcus Lawrence 451 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 4: told us today that they're all regretting. Not DeMarcus Lawrence, 452 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 4: it was the safety Jayron Curse. He's still mad about 453 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 4: the loss to uh Tara Zona. He's still mad at 454 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 4: that hurts us. That's it's it's a conference loss, and 455 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 4: that's what he talked about going and you cannot make 456 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 4: it up right, So you cannot let these games go. 457 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 2: So sad I was in my younger days in the 458 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 2: early early years of NBC Sunday Night Football and John 459 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 2: Madden was still doing it without Michaels and they sent 460 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 2: us out to LA for the big media junkie. So 461 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 2: it was my turn there and Tony Rumo was a 462 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 2: quarterback and I said, you know, John, right now, the 463 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 2: biggest problem a lot of people have with Tony Romos 464 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 2: that they don't think he big games. And he says, 465 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,959 Speaker 2: hold on a minute. Something is always bothered me as 466 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 2: a head coach. They're only sixteen of these things. That's 467 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 2: back for scinting. They're only sixteen. Tell me the small ones. 468 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 2: You got a guy who's out here taking me to 469 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 2: the place. Tell me the small games that are on 470 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 2: the skins. It's like there's no such thing as a 471 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 2: small game. There's only sixteen of these. They all matter, 472 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 2: especially if you're trying to go somewhere. So in your mind, 473 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 2: you're trying to say, this giants game, this is so 474 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 2: small of a game. Let's go bring in a guy 475 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 2: who's yet to take a snap for us that I 476 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 2: don't agree with. Is it a game that they should win? 477 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 2: I picked him to cover. I think we all picked 478 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 2: him up. 479 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,479 Speaker 5: You think all sixteen games are all the same, then 480 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 5: we just fundamentally disagree. 481 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 2: But if you they're all big games, and you're trying 482 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 2: to say it, because. 483 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 5: There's a reason why you always have that staf board 484 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,479 Speaker 5: of what Kirk Cousins does in prime time, Like, I mean, 485 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 5: come on, they're all they're not all the same. I'm 486 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,239 Speaker 5: not saying they're not all important, but they're not all 487 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 5: the same. 488 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 2: You could say that the competition may be different, but 489 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 2: for in your your mind, your mentality is you're already 490 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 2: telling these guys, these dudes are well buddy, right, say, 491 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,239 Speaker 2: ain't no East Carolinas. You're trying to sit up your scent. 492 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 2: Ain't no good. This This is not Alabama versus UT 493 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 2: Chattanooga on Sunday. That's how you're treating the giants according 494 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 2: to you right there, and you can't do that in 495 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 2: the NFL. 496 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 4: For that's what we're saying. Yeah, you can't. You can't 497 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 4: do that. Again, it's the wrong message of saying that's 498 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 4: how you get beat and it's a wrong mentality you 499 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 4: senting about the organization and what you're trying to do. 500 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 4: You can't do that. 501 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 5: I mean, it's great messaging. It has been so great 502 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 5: for the last time. 503 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 4: I'm not saying it wasn't great, but that is great 504 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 4: for us to talk about. You're just like all the 505 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 4: MVP talk and we need to talk about that for 506 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 4: a second. 507 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 2: You know, you should ask Mike about. 508 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 6: That when we go Well. 509 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 5: And Clarence left off. The first thing I said when 510 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 5: I started that conversation, which is which is if I 511 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 5: was Mike McCarthy, I understand I would I probably wouldn't 512 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 5: do that, I said outside looking in? Did I not 513 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 5: say that to you? 514 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 4: Right? I said that point because I heard all the 515 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 4: other stuff. Yeah, but the bottom line of this, you're right, look, 516 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 4: and that's fine for us to talk about and we 517 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 4: gives us I was talking about, we could talk about 518 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 4: what if you know it's like, that's what it is, 519 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 4: and that's great. That's just not something a foundation philosophy 520 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 4: that the Cowboys should be thinking about are doing. 521 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 2: That's all we're saying. 522 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 4: As organization, you can't do that. Yeah for us, Yeah. 523 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: You're under forty correct what under thirty? 524 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 2: I'm just saying. So so when you when you reach there, 525 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 2: you and your mind, your mind will change some of 526 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 2: the things that I used to I used to believe 527 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 2: and think when I was younger doing this. As I 528 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: got older and as the people I covered started to 529 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 2: retire and the coaches started, you change. You changed a 530 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 2: little bit. But that's that's that's that's one to grow on. 531 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: I'd be very interested, you know when when Clarence is 532 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 2: older in life and the grandpa said here and you 533 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 2: still cover the Cowboys when you talk to him and 534 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 2: go over that and see if you still feel that way, because. 535 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 5: I guess very visit this conversation about thirteen years. 536 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 2: You know, I do. I do think. I mean it literally, 537 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 2: I would love to because is there are things that 538 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 2: I used to think about and later on even the 539 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: way I think about coaches and coaching change all the 540 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 2: stuff as I've gotten older and you and you go 541 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 2: through this and you're like, well, you know well, and. 542 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 5: The biggest thing is what you just said, Like me 543 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 5: asking McCarthy about this, I would never do that because 544 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 5: I'm not I'm not stupid. And also, on top of that, 545 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 5: like I understand not doing it. I'm not saying like 546 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 5: you didn't. I didn't write some columns slamming Mike McCarthy 547 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 5: for not making Trey Lance the backup. I'm just saying, 548 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 5: I just threw it out there as it's a thought. 549 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 5: It's a sports radio exactly exactly, That's all I was saying. 550 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 2: And those and having done it, those are time fillers. 551 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 2: Hey guys, we got four holes. Let's go ahead and 552 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,360 Speaker 2: throw this. When I'm. 553 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 5: If I'm walking into the stadium with a beat writer, 554 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,199 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna be like, so what do you how 555 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 5: do you think the cowboy's gonna beat the giants today? 556 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 4: Come on now, he said he needs some deeper you 557 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 4: know again, that's just again, that's that's what we should 558 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 4: you know, we there's nothing wrong with us speculating. You know, 559 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 4: I have a problem when we speculate just for for 560 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 4: for quick takes like so. 561 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 5: On your walk in, you've never had a random, random conversation. 562 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 4: I'm not. I wasn't really talking about that right about it. 563 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 5: You brought it up right now, not me. 564 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 2: No, no, no, I don't know what you know. That's 565 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 2: what you get with him. I know, time out, dragon. 566 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 5: Timeout d I know he did that on purpose too, 567 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 5: because and he framed in that way that I was like, 568 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 5: you know, they should do it like this. All I 569 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 5: said was it was. 570 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 7: No, no, no, no. 571 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 4: First of all, it was a good conversation because I 572 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 4: just think that that we have mindsets and and I 573 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 4: prefaced it and I said, we can talk about this, 574 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 4: right He said, okay, so let's let's just talk about it. 575 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 4: But but my point is is that we got to 576 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 4: stop thinking, you know, these games are important. These teams 577 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 4: are no good because they record is bad. I mean 578 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 4: two three weeks ago, Denver had given up seventy points 579 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 4: and then they go back and there's and and and 580 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 4: and and no one saw any of the back to 581 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 4: back whis against the Chiefs and Buffalo on the road. 582 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 4: Now was in Buffalo lost the difference. Maybe Denver is 583 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 4: getting better. 584 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 5: Right, and you're what you're talking about. I don't disagree 585 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 5: with that completely. But we also are not gonna look 586 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 5: at the Cowboys or the season the same way that 587 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 5: Dak Prescott does. Dak Dak is going to come out 588 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 5: and say every week that he's not looking at what 589 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 5: Philadelphia is doing? 590 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 6: Are you? 591 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 5: Yes, you are, come on, man, look phil exactly. But 592 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 5: but he has to say that he's not. 593 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 4: I'm watching Washington, watching the Commanders.
