He says, yeah, they wanted 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:57.680 a horse for the pregame show. Barkley, Charles Barkley rode 0:06:57.720 --> 0:07:01.479 in on a horse outside female An Airline centers. Not 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.080 he wrote, on a horse first, how you get up there? 0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:09.920 Look it up? They got them stairs. Yeah, tried to 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:11.679 get on the Cowboys. You know, they got the stairs. 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:19.680 Getting getting fun to watching Charles get on that was 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:21.800 that was a lot of fun. And it what hit 0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:24.560 me him tying it back to the Cowboys. This is 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:27.400 the second San Francisco team that's ending up playoff. Bye 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.280 bye bye down space team here, so supporting nine. He's 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.800 got the Cowboys Warriors about to get the Mavericks here. 0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:38.000 And and I had someone asked me Matt Dog Radio said, hey, 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:41.600 have the Mavericks overtaking the Cowboys and turns of fantasis. 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.600 I said, uh no, it'll and it won't never happen. 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:46.280 They can go out there and win two back to 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:49.920 back finals and this will still be a Cowboys base 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:53.960 DFW area metroplex. It's just how this is. This is everything. 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:56.760 And we were talking about us who was it? The 0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:59.120 mayor was talking about bringing another team in here. I'm like, man, 0:07:59.160 --> 0:08:01.240 ain't they ain't no way that's gonna happen. It ain't. 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:05.200 No wait, somebody he made because they didn't put the 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:07.360 stadiums in Dallas and all the other stuff. And I 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:09.760 don't know the history behind it, but I'm sure reason 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:15.680 for why. I'm sure they tried, and it did. Jerry 0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:17.640 looked down at their fair park. The mayor at the time, 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:22.640 um Laura. I can't remember her last name, but anyway, 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:24.800 she basically said, you want it, you pay for it, 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:27.480 trying to help, you know, Laura, Laura Miller, We're not 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:31.440 We're not paying for stadiums here. Now. She was a conservative, 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:35.240 and conservative principles if you apply them, tell you you 0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:38.440 know what, We're not using public funds to pay for 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:42.200 your stadium. You're the cowboys, you're the NFL. You pay 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:45.920 for it. Arlington, on the other hand, said, hey, we 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:49.079 got half million dollars and they had people vote on it. 0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:50.719 And I was living in Arlington at the time, and 0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:53.640 Bill Parcels was here. They had Parcels out there pitching 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:56.040 the stadium. I mean, they had me pushing it, are 0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.439 I mean? And that was Jerry's that he got it built. 0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:02.920 So half million dollars went to Jerry Jones, and taxpayer 0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:11.160 have a billion million gonna do that. I'm talking about, 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:18.520 thank thank you, thirty five hundred million dollars. And so 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:21.360 that's how how it got built. So that's so Dallas 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:24.080 had an opportunity but did not take advantage of it. 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:27.400 And he's mad at the hockey team. He mad at 0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:31.080 the baseball. Hockey team may leave too. Okay, first saw 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:36.960 was it twenty twenty two. Five years, you may not 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:41.920 have any team playing in that venue five years, Mark 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.200 marks lead. Mark's gonna build his across the way. They 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:46.800 already got some they already been working on land. So 0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:48.560 he's gonna build a new arena across the way because 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.800 all these all these you want your own building. Have 0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:54.440 your own building, then you can do other events outside 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:56.400 of just owned. So that's where everybody's trying to make 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:59.040 it an entertainment venue. Everybody's looking at what Jerry's done, 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:00.559 and they're trying to do in. The Angels are trying 0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:02.360 to do it for baseball. They're out of town here, 0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:04.880 mean they got no grass. You know, seth fakes up. 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:08.120 So when they leave, this tractor pools its concours as everything. 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:10.400 It's whatever they can get in there to make money. 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:13.280 So Mark's gonna go build his own stadium and have 0:10:13.480 --> 0:10:17.400 that over there, and then the Stars Starts may leave too. 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:19.720 Stars could end up going to Arlington, Starts getting to 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:21.400 go to First I mean, there's going to be options. 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:25.439 So I wouldn't be surprised. Eric johnsonby ain't nobody in town. Man, 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:29.520 ain't gonna have no sports teams well outside of Mark 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:31.640 Marcos stay in Dallas. So Marcols just go across the 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:35.640 way thirty. You have Mark, but the hockey team who knows? 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:39.320 Who knows? Maybe so much. Having a stadium downtown bring 0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:41.640 so much business in there, like all those boards and 0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:43.720 restaurants that are trying to be right around that way. 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:46.840 It's look, man, everybody's traded to the art in fair Park. 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:49.559 It would have been a state of the art facility 0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:52.679 up there in Fair Park. You know, you wouldn't have 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.000 had players living all the way out of Firstco. There 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:57.760 would have been more people coming into Dallas. Man. Yeah, 0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.400 they would have been pracing somewhere in the city. I 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.280 swear them. That's where for football, that's where the money's made. 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:05.920 The practice facility because you guys knows where guys don't 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:08.280 live around it. And to me, I go back to 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:12.360 for Arlington, you had Jerry build, you know, Jerry World 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:14.920 right over there where Texas where the Texas Rangers are 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:17.679 Texas lie but across the way where they used to 0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:20.400 have the old six Flags Mall. The other side where 0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:22.160 they had the old six Flags mall, they had all 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:25.160 them strip clubs and used car lots, all that over there. 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:27.640 That's what they should have gave Jerry some more money 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:31.360 and land to go have the practice. Put that over there, 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:34.160 and then you'd have had the practice facility right over 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:35.640 there by the stadium, and then you could have got 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:38.320 players and more money within right over there. What has 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.240 done to Frisco. I mean, it's just so we would 0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:45.040 all we've all been driving up to Arlington. Thank you 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:48.000 for not giving him. Okay, I'm enjoying my time Frisco. 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:53.840 But actually, what would have happened for for you know, 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:59.079 those with money like Barry west Lake the same way 0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:00.960 they are irving, that would have been much of a 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:04.920 difference you'd have had You'd have had the rookie free 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:06.800 ain't living out in an artics in an eight eight 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:14.640 and a couple of cats, no trouble, which right like 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.880 lake Ford, That's how Chicago was out there in lake 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:19.400 Forest and were nothing out there in Lake Forced, they 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.320 would have had more Arlanston than lake Forest because it 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:23.640 literally wasn't nothing out there in lake Forest and sat place. 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:26.640 They're moving to Arlington Heights, so that's gonna be where 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:28.920 they're gonna where that racetrack was. They're gonna build the 0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:31.560 stadium with the racetrack. And once again they're all trying 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:34.000 to They're all trying to copy Jerry. How can we 0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:37.200 go out here and make a facility a whole you know, 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:41.000 we want we want sports for our football team, other 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:44.640 things and retail and shops, and so what we see 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:46.880 with Stan Cronky has done that's all built off a 0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:49.400 racetrack as well well Hollywood Park and everything that he's 0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:52.440 building out there. It's gonna be a phenomenal, you know, facility. 0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:57.440 But everyone is copying Jerry Jones. There's really two owners 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:00.840 I think of that really have trans formed the way 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:06.760 people see um venues and sports teams. Jerry West I 0:13:06.760 --> 0:13:10.199 means Jerry Buss, who had to buy for sixty two million. 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:12.719 I was being told yesterday by Ray Ritter, who used 0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:14.240 to work for the Lakers now works for the Wars. 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:18.520 He bought the Kings, the Lakers and the Forum for 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:22.400 sixty sixty two sixty two million dollars, and then Jerry 0:13:22.480 --> 0:13:24.520 Jones bought Texas Stating and the Cowboys for like a 0:13:24.520 --> 0:13:30.160 buck eighty nine turned it into five points something billion. Right, Okay, 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:32.320 let's not act like sixty two and a buck eighty 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:36.280 nine ain't a lot of That's a lot, time, Yeah, 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:42.520 a lot. Yeah, that's a lot right now. Just amazing 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:48.160 investments of all time, Amazing investments of all time. All right, Um, Cowboys, 0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:53.760 that was Cowboys. Not another team coming in here to 0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:57.360 try to split time with the Cowboys and not gonna 0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:59.800 have a hard time people in the building too. Jerry, 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:03.600 it happened, guarantee that I did not hear one thing 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:05.560 about the forty nine ers when I was in San Francisco, 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:09.000 not one thing, not one. I wonder, why don't they 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:10.959 just had a nice run? I mean, you would think 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:13.079 the city would still be a buzz. And that's kind 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:16.280 of the difference between that town in this town. We're 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:19.440 still talking about the Cowboys and Cowboys or front and center. 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:26.480 I saw one Niners jacket and I saw one T shirt. Well, now, okay, 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:30.040 because Golden State went through a town where they were 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:32.440 on the way to being a dynasty, all right, so 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:36.480 a lot of people were transforming into Golden State fans. 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.320 Oh yeah, absolutely, it started to becoming a basketball city. 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:42.320 And then now they're rolling how they're rolling down. This 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:44.320 is the total opposite of what we got going on 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:48.000 here in Dallas. Well and the baseball state of the Giants. 0:14:48.000 --> 0:14:49.680 Have you never been the best ball park in the 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:52.840 country I've ever been to, But they've won they starting 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:54.440 in two thousand and ten. They ended up winning three 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:56.920 World Series and they basically won two thousand and ten, two, 0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:01.360 two thout fourteen, and then you look at the Warriors run. 0:15:01.400 --> 0:15:04.080 They started winning in the twenty fifteen one three championships. Then, 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.480 so you've got two of the franchises in town that, 0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:11.360 if not just one, put up three championships and start play. 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:13.880 They got guys to take take you out of looking 0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:16.400 at who the football team is. You're looking at Deebo 0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:19.800 Samue and Jimmy Garoppolo versus Clay and stuff. People are 0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:23.000 they gravitating toward clans? And look at the national commercials 0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:25.280 I mean, you know Clay and you got three those 0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:28.920 and Buffalo stuff got all these commercials Jimmy Jimmy Garoppolos 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:31.960 and a subway commercial. Oh he died. He just everybody 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:39.960 got a subway that what's going on. They picked up 0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:44.280 everybody that they passed. But they also have Steph Curry. 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:47.080 I bet Steph Curry commercial logan. It runs a lot, 0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:50.920 it runs more. It runs a lot, it runs a 0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:53.560 lot more. And I just it was just very interesting 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:56.200 just thinking about looking at their football team out there. 0:15:56.240 --> 0:15:58.720 And by the way, during that run from twenty ten, 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:01.320 when the Giants started winning in in the Warriors, the 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:04.760 Niners played in the Super Bowl twice, just didn't win them, 0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:07.640 just just did not win them. But nor Harball took 0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:09.960 them and they ended up losing to the Ravens. And 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:12.760 then then you had Kyle Shanahan take the loss to 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:16.280 the Kansas City Chiefs. But it just wasn't on the radars, 0:16:16.280 --> 0:16:18.280 and I just kind of found interesting because you know, 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.880 Cowboys still on the radar. I mean I found myself 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.520 out there doing talking about the Cowboys, like you know, 0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:25.760 Mark Cubans, only the team's just two thousands. Is a 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:28.000 fourth trip to the Western Conference Finals. During that time, 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:31.760 the Cowboys have yet to play in the NFC Championship 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:33.560 game at all to get to the final four and 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.440 their sport. And yeah, it still comes back to the Cowboys, 0:16:36.480 --> 0:16:40.120 because this is a Cowboys towns. The first professional team 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:42.360 here in Dallas Fort Worth in nineteen sixty That's when 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:45.680 the Cowboys got here. Rangers get here in nineteen seventy two, 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:49.160 Mavericks get here in nineteen ninety Stars in nineteen ninety three. 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:52.160 So this they've had the head start they've won. I mean, 0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:54.200 you think about it. By the time the Rangers got here, 0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:56.800 the Cowboys had won their first World championship nineteen seventy one. 0:16:57.200 --> 0:17:00.400 So this town is always going to be about the 0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:03.160 Dallas Cowboys, the football towns, the football state. It's just 0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:05.679 ingrain and what people do from the time they grow up, 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:09.800 just football, and it matters. Maverick's winning is good any 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:15.600 football season, Hey, football season. We got OTA's coming up 0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:18.760 this week, you know. So we're going to get right 0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:21.159 back into the Cowboys and we'll take a break.

We're brought to 0:20:16.280 --> 0:20:18.959 you by Hotels dot com. He is buried Church Danny McCray. 0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:22.040 Undrafted free agent Saintings for the Cowboys. They are now 0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:25.080 here doing their thing. I'm new, he scrugs. OTAs coming 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:27.359 up this week? What advice would you give the undrafted 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:29.760 rookies about how they should go about their jobs this week? 0:20:30.840 --> 0:20:33.840 Let me tell you something, undrafted rookies. What you should 0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:36.960 do is go find coast fossil. You make sure that 0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:39.320 you are in his ear and you're asking him what 0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:42.480 you need to do to make the squad, because most 0:20:42.520 --> 0:20:46.400 likely you're going to have to be a special teams contributor, 0:20:46.600 --> 0:20:50.320 probably playing at least four of them core game. So 0:20:50.359 --> 0:20:52.840 you got to be a core special teamer unless you're 0:20:52.880 --> 0:20:56.160 just some special talent to where they automatically gonna make 0:20:56.200 --> 0:20:57.959 you're a starter. And if you're thinking that way, you're 0:20:57.960 --> 0:21:00.000 probably ain't gonna be one, all right, So make sure 0:21:00.160 --> 0:21:02.320 you find out what you need to do to make 0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:04.719 the team and contribute on special teams and go out 0:21:04.720 --> 0:21:06.879 there and give it everything you got. Get in your playbook. 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:08.959 Don't be one of those guys who goes out there 0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:12.040 and doesn't know what the assignment was the night before. 0:21:12.160 --> 0:21:13.560 Right when you get out there, and make sure you're 0:21:13.560 --> 0:21:15.959 able to make your checks, make your calls and uh 0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:19.240 and fulfill your responsibility on offense or defense, because what 0:21:19.280 --> 0:21:21.160 you don't want is to get in that film room 0:21:21.359 --> 0:21:23.560 and they say this, dude, this is a guy who 0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:26.919 cannot pick up offense or defense, so we cannot depend 0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:28.920 or trust him to put them in the game without 0:21:28.920 --> 0:21:30.760 a doubt. You one hundred percent right. And what these 0:21:30.800 --> 0:21:33.439 undrafted guys gotta understand is you know, when you're drafted, 0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:35.440 they're gonna get they're gonna make excuses, especially if you're 0:21:35.440 --> 0:21:37.879 in the top three rounds, they're gonna make excuses for 0:21:38.000 --> 0:21:40.439 why you you didn't show up or you didn't you know, 0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:42.640 play to your best of your abilities. When you're undrafted, 0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:44.720 you don't get those excuses. You don't. It's either you 0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:47.320 can play or you can't play. So mccrai is one 0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:50.040 hundred percent right. You gotta go find your special teams coach. 0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:51.880 That's what me and him did. We went to Dicon 0:21:51.920 --> 0:21:54.320 Milliss even though we felt like we were playing good 0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:56.320 on defense, we went to Dicon. Millisson was like, man, 0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:59.200 what can we do to further our you know, career 0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:02.119 basically with Dallas Cowboys, and he's become a core special teamer. 0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:03.600 And that's what we did. We took it to heart 0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:06.360 and ended up proving, um, you know, dividends for us. 0:22:06.400 --> 0:22:08.840 But as an undrafted guy, you've got to make friends 0:22:08.840 --> 0:22:11.040 with that special teams coordinator. You gotta make him his 0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:13.320 best friend, and you gotta go out there and not 0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:16.720 saying that defense is second string or secondary, but you 0:22:16.840 --> 0:22:19.239 gotta make special teams a priority because that's the way 0:22:19.240 --> 0:22:20.840 you're gonna get on the football field. I mean, there's 0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:23.160 only one guy I know of that was undrafted who 0:22:23.160 --> 0:22:24.960 didn't play special teams but made the team, and that 0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:27.480 was Cole Beasley and he and he actually quit in 0:22:27.520 --> 0:22:30.720 training camp like that, quit and trading camp, came back 0:22:31.000 --> 0:22:33.159 still made the team, didn't play any special teams and 0:22:33.200 --> 0:22:36.280 that was only one instance. So you gotta know who 0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.800 your special teams coordinator is. And you also got to 0:22:38.800 --> 0:22:41.119 read the room. Look at the guys that you know 0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:43.919 that won't lead you astray, all right. You like, you 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.560 gotta make sure you stay away for those type of 0:22:46.600 --> 0:22:50.919 guys that'll lead you into the deep water. Joseph I 0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:53.040 was one of those guys too that hey, I'll lead 0:22:53.080 --> 0:22:56.080 you after the team real quick. But you just you 0:22:56.119 --> 0:22:58.639 gotta make sure you follow the right guys and you 0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:00.680 get you know, best friends with just secal team Cornator. 0:23:00.720 --> 0:23:02.320 That'll be the eagiest way you make the team. We had, 0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:04.679 We had some guys in our defensive back room that 0:23:05.040 --> 0:23:07.560 you lead you astraight real quick. If you didn't know 0:23:07.640 --> 0:23:10.200 how to be responsible for yourself and your own actions, 0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:13.560 following them dudes would get you into some issues because 0:23:13.600 --> 0:23:15.480 they had already been there. They had the experience, they 0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:18.440 got a handalysts of like zero Sensi ball and Orlando 0:23:18.520 --> 0:23:23.960 Scandrid great leaders on the field, but they were events. 0:23:25.240 --> 0:23:27.119 So you can't hang with the big dogs. Don't do it. 0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:30.560 I ain't getting playbook. And you know, for the weekend comes, 0:23:30.560 --> 0:23:34.280 you don't just relax. I know it's a new city. 0:23:34.320 --> 0:23:36.200 You want to go check it out. All what's Dallas? 0:23:36.200 --> 0:23:38.560 You know all this hoopler. Just relax, man, you know, 0:23:38.760 --> 0:23:41.000 focus on what you gotta do, OTAs because you get 0:23:41.040 --> 0:23:43.000 the weekend off and OTAs mini camp. You gotta do 0:23:43.040 --> 0:23:45.159 some things. But ots you got the weekend off. Just 0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:47.399 you know, focus and stay stay where. Yeah, yeah, you 0:23:47.440 --> 0:23:49.920 got all this ju live broll your let's focus there 0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:52.080 in June and then you know in July you go ahead, 0:23:52.320 --> 0:23:55.959 had you some fun, yeah, but not too much fun? Yeah, exactly. 0:23:56.000 --> 0:23:59.440 Don't go to be there. So you guys both ended 0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:03.120 up signing with the Cowboys. It's undrafted free agent. Who 0:24:03.160 --> 0:24:06.159 else called you and you almost went to before deciding 0:24:06.200 --> 0:24:09.920 on Dallas? Thenny nobody like Dallas was my first call 0:24:09.960 --> 0:24:11.760 and my agent told me straight up, Hey, I think 0:24:11.760 --> 0:24:14.439 this is the best situation for you yeah, and I 0:24:14.520 --> 0:24:17.080 was done. I didn't. I didn't expect to get me 0:24:17.080 --> 0:24:20.280 any more calls anyways. But the fact that Dallas was 0:24:20.320 --> 0:24:22.359 the one who called, I live in Houston. I've always so. 0:24:22.440 --> 0:24:25.160 I lived in Houston. I played at LSU, so I've 0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:27.480 always been in that area. It was a no brainer 0:24:27.520 --> 0:24:29.320 for me. So if anybody else did call, what have 0:24:29.600 --> 0:24:32.080 they wouldn't have gotten for me. It came down to 0:24:32.320 --> 0:24:36.359 it was a Dallas Um Panthers and in Houston. And 0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:38.239 you know, as an undrafted free agent, you get like 0:24:38.440 --> 0:24:40.480 ten minutes to decide you know where you want to 0:24:40.480 --> 0:24:41.960 go as soon as the draft is over. So I'm 0:24:42.000 --> 0:24:43.680 first of all, I pissed off I didn't get drafted. 0:24:43.680 --> 0:24:45.399 I seen punters and kickers going. I'm like, man, this 0:24:45.480 --> 0:24:47.880 is some bull. And then my agent call like, hey man, 0:24:47.960 --> 0:24:49.439 these three teams is going. I was like, all right, well, 0:24:49.480 --> 0:24:51.080 let me sleep on it. Nah, you ain't got a 0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:55.760 tax about fifteen minutes, ten minute na and then luckily 0:24:55.960 --> 0:24:58.959 Um Maxie had called me. Brent Maxie, who was our 0:24:59.320 --> 0:25:01.640 second safety coach at the time, called me said, hey man, 0:25:01.960 --> 0:25:04.520 Dicon millis our special teams coach loves you. He thinks 0:25:04.560 --> 0:25:05.959 you can do some great things. I think you can 0:25:06.000 --> 0:25:08.080 do some great things on defense. You know, let's make 0:25:08.080 --> 0:25:09.840 this happen. And you know ended up, you know, making 0:25:09.840 --> 0:25:11.520 a decision end up being a good one for myself. 0:25:11.560 --> 0:25:13.840 But yeah, you gotta it's it's tough. You got about 0:25:13.880 --> 0:25:15.840 ten minutes. Yeah, you gotta have You gotta have an 0:25:15.840 --> 0:25:19.040 agent that's good enough or there's in tune enough to 0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:21.159 be able to look at that roster that quick and say, 0:25:21.240 --> 0:25:23.119 hey man, this is how many safeties they got, this 0:25:23.240 --> 0:25:25.199 how many guys they have on long term contracts, and 0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:27.080 this is how many guys they have where you could 0:25:27.119 --> 0:25:30.280 probably overtake them because they may be old a lot 0:25:30.280 --> 0:25:31.879 of money if they make the roster, and they may 0:25:31.880 --> 0:25:34.160 be trying to go younger. So you gotta be able 0:25:34.160 --> 0:25:36.480 to know that. And I think at that time, Dallas, 0:25:36.760 --> 0:25:38.639 it must have had some guys because if we had 0:25:38.760 --> 0:25:41.199 it Ball you think about Ellen Ball was moving from 0:25:41.240 --> 0:25:44.439 corner to safety at that time. But you had Mike Hamlin. 0:25:44.560 --> 0:25:46.640 Mike Hamlin who he was, He was a late round 0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:50.720 draft picked walking walking. Yeah, so we had we had, 0:25:51.000 --> 0:25:52.440 you know, we had some guys to where it was 0:25:52.480 --> 0:25:54.199 like we could make it a real competition to make 0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:56.440 the squad, so it worked out for us. Quassi was hurt. 0:25:57.760 --> 0:25:59.639 Hurt when we got drafted. Were the only ones in 0:25:59.720 --> 0:26:01.600 rookie mini camp, Like we were the only two safety 0:26:01.680 --> 0:26:04.240 so like we got all the reps, all the shine, 0:26:04.359 --> 0:26:06.400 like they made sure they like we got every damn 0:26:06.440 --> 0:26:08.119 It was hard as all hell, but I mean we 0:26:08.160 --> 0:26:10.000 got every rep and I think that really helped us 0:26:10.000 --> 0:26:12.320 out going into training camp. How much does it help 0:26:12.440 --> 0:26:15.960 that the Cowboys in the last decade have not been 0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:19.760 a team that spent high draft capital or big free 0:26:19.800 --> 0:26:22.280 agent dollars at the safety position. I think it hurt 0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:23.879 him a little bit. I think it did hurt him 0:26:23.880 --> 0:26:25.639 a little bit because I actually say, if you're a 0:26:25.640 --> 0:26:27.920 free agent, if you're undrafted, they're calling you right now, 0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:29.440 that you just look at the fact that hey, look 0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:32.640 they don't this is it's an opportunity. Yeah, I would 0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:35.520 say it's an opportunity, especially here because both of the safeties, 0:26:35.720 --> 0:26:37.879 Um Hooker and Curse. You know, Curse had a heck 0:26:37.880 --> 0:26:40.199 of a season last year, but they didn't put you know, 0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:44.120 a great amount of you know money into There's no earl. Yeah, 0:26:44.119 --> 0:26:46.400 there's no Yeah, It's not like he's you know, guaranteed 0:26:46.400 --> 0:26:48.800 to have that for good forever. So I think if 0:26:48.800 --> 0:26:50.600 you're an undrafted guy, you gotta look at the Cowboys 0:26:50.640 --> 0:26:52.840 as an opportunity for not only to make the team, 0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:55.640 but to maybe sprinkling some defensive snaps. Um you got 0:26:55.640 --> 0:26:57.760 that opportunity here in our dolls, I believe. I'll say this. 0:26:57.760 --> 0:26:59.920 I think they should have kept Church. But yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:27:00.119 --> 0:27:03.120 to the people that the fans wanted, which started off 0:27:03.160 --> 0:27:06.480 with Earl Thomas and then moved on, moved on to 0:27:06.600 --> 0:27:11.120 my guy from LSU, Jamal Adams. You know, like fans, 0:27:11.720 --> 0:27:14.040 this could have been us. This could have been us 0:27:14.080 --> 0:27:16.720 overpaying for some guys who aren't going to be that 0:27:16.760 --> 0:27:19.040 type of difference maker on the field, and then we 0:27:19.160 --> 0:27:21.480 were in the hole, all right. So I think they've 0:27:21.480 --> 0:27:23.760 made some decent choices when it comes to like bringing 0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:26.240 in some guys who can play for one two years 0:27:26.240 --> 0:27:27.639 and then if they have to and they move on. 0:27:27.680 --> 0:27:31.080 But they should have they should have get very six 0:27:32.760 --> 0:27:36.560 mass with Jacksonville, because I meant it was just you 0:27:36.640 --> 0:27:38.760 knew it every year too, and every year was some 0:27:38.840 --> 0:27:41.120 guy coming on ave never weddo came and I'm like, man, 0:27:41.400 --> 0:27:43.840 just gonna have man howd started like two years I 0:27:43.920 --> 0:27:45.640 just man, just walking in the hallways. I'm like, that's 0:27:45.640 --> 0:27:47.159 what that's how we're doing. And I knew it was 0:27:47.200 --> 0:27:48.879 me the coming from me because the next dude was 0:27:48.880 --> 0:27:50.840 what I think, Byron Jones. I'm like, I didn't get 0:27:50.880 --> 0:27:52.440 rid of buying. They just got him in the first round. 0:27:52.520 --> 0:27:55.800 So I'm like, man, these dudes, JJ, it all worked 0:27:55.800 --> 0:27:58.600 out every year. It was always somebody come come take 0:27:58.640 --> 0:28:02.000 my work. You almost did twenty minutes. It wasn't ten 0:28:02.440 --> 0:28:05.840 three three minutes, three minutes away. And I got Brady. Man, 0:28:05.960 --> 0:28:08.960 you know we got Brady that. Yeah, So you got 0:28:09.000 --> 0:28:11.560 a great memory. You've got it. You've got a great memory. 0:28:11.960 --> 0:28:14.440 All right. Question I asked right before the break, let's 0:28:14.440 --> 0:28:18.520 dive into it. Who's the number two target that you're 0:28:18.640 --> 0:28:23.840 thinking about four? Dak Prescott after Cedde Lamb, Michael Gallup, 0:28:23.840 --> 0:28:26.520 who they signed to a multi year contract in the offseason, 0:28:26.760 --> 0:28:28.639 not expected to be ready for the first two to 0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:31.520 three football games. So right now, as we get ready 0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:33.240 to go to these OTAs, who do you think is 0:28:33.280 --> 0:28:36.840 the number two target for number four? That's easy. Dalton Shoultz, 0:28:38.520 --> 0:28:40.600 Dalton Schultz is going to be he may be the 0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:43.440 number one target, just depending on what we saw last 0:28:43.520 --> 0:28:46.160 year and how he's become that Jason Winton type guy 0:28:46.240 --> 0:28:49.040 that that safety valve for Dak Prescott. Dak Prescott is 0:28:49.080 --> 0:28:51.440 often looking for Dalton shots. So I know that Cede 0:28:51.520 --> 0:28:53.520 Lamb is going to get those down the field and 0:28:53.600 --> 0:28:56.240 try to make those big time plays. But Dalton Schultz 0:28:56.400 --> 0:28:58.760 is going to get a lot of targets because one, 0:28:58.840 --> 0:29:01.480 he's probably gonna be running shorter routes and then you 0:29:01.520 --> 0:29:03.360 know they're probably gonna be playing off of them a 0:29:03.360 --> 0:29:05.600 little bit and and trying to hold him from getting 0:29:05.600 --> 0:29:08.560 that first down. But last year he got I don't 0:29:08.560 --> 0:29:11.520 know how many kids, you got, eighty some catches and 0:29:11.520 --> 0:29:14.440 this is back to back. Yeah, so he's I see 0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:16.760 him getting the number two target of spot this year 0:29:16.800 --> 0:29:18.520 as well. I'm with you on that. Now. I think 0:29:18.800 --> 0:29:21.800 Schultz He's gonna end up being that number two target, 0:29:21.880 --> 0:29:24.040 which scares me a little bit because you know, you 0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:26.400 know Schultz, he's a he's a he's a good tight end, 0:29:26.480 --> 0:29:29.200 very solid tight end. But I don't think he's dynamic 0:29:29.320 --> 0:29:32.120 enough to be that pass catcher, that option that you 0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:34.320 need to have. I'm running out of options. I can 0:29:34.360 --> 0:29:36.120 see if you want them for five yards, you know, 0:29:36.240 --> 0:29:38.640 six yards here and there and a little seven yards 0:29:38.640 --> 0:29:40.360 you're on the goal line. Red zone threat. I can 0:29:40.400 --> 0:29:43.680 see that, But I just don't think he's dynamic enough 0:29:43.880 --> 0:29:46.280 to beat. If the defenders was like look zone, maybe 0:29:46.360 --> 0:29:48.000 he can sit down on his zone. He's a smart guy. 0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:51.200 He can be quarterback friendly, but man to man guys 0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:53.200 are focusing. I don't know if he got that dynamic 0:29:53.280 --> 0:29:55.320 wiggle to be able to do that. I don't know. 0:29:56.640 --> 0:30:00.440 You don't say you don't even root for Schultz. They want. 0:30:00.520 --> 0:30:03.280 I'm just saying they're gonna double CD and then they're 0:30:03.280 --> 0:30:05.240 gonna put something on on shot that. I don't know. 0:30:05.240 --> 0:30:07.680 If he's dynamic enough, I don't know. I will say this. 0:30:10.560 --> 0:30:13.480 I did watch the Pittsburgh still is enough to say 0:30:13.480 --> 0:30:16.080 that I believe that if my man, James Washington can 0:30:16.160 --> 0:30:19.520 hold onto the ball, I think that he will be 0:30:20.480 --> 0:30:23.120 at least the number three getter for targets. But he 0:30:23.160 --> 0:30:25.480 has to be able to catch the ball. He got 0:30:25.520 --> 0:30:29.960 some talot bro, and he has some talent. He's curtched 0:30:29.960 --> 0:30:32.840 the fielding Pittsburgh got some talent bro because he can't 0:30:32.880 --> 0:30:36.520 catch the ball. But That's why I said, you know this, 0:30:36.920 --> 0:30:39.800 if I've seen guys who've had who had problems catching 0:30:39.800 --> 0:30:42.400 the ball at one location, that one true, and then 0:30:42.440 --> 0:30:44.680 they moved to a different spot and they realized that, hey, 0:30:44.720 --> 0:30:46.479 this is my shot, and if I missed this one up, 0:30:46.600 --> 0:30:48.080 then I'm gonna have an issue. And they'd be sitting 0:30:48.080 --> 0:30:49.880 on the drugs for twenty four hours a day, seven 0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:52.080 days a week, and they come out here and they 0:30:52.120 --> 0:30:54.040 find a way to catch the ball. Also, coming from 0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:58.360 Dak Prescott's arm may be different than coming from being Roethlisberger's. Like, 0:30:58.400 --> 0:30:59.960 I don't know how to this is. I don't play receiver, 0:31:00.280 --> 0:31:02.040 but I think that if he's able to hold on 0:31:02.040 --> 0:31:04.200 to the ball, he has the ability to be a 0:31:04.240 --> 0:31:06.160 big time playmaker. He just has to. You know, he 0:31:06.200 --> 0:31:09.360 got got minimize as a reporter. That's the guy I'm 0:31:09.400 --> 0:31:13.160 focused on Day's washing because is he gonna see the field? Well, yes, 0:31:13.400 --> 0:31:15.640 I mean you got y CD gonna get the rookie, 0:31:15.680 --> 0:31:19.320 the young Tolbert. But first off, I mean, and you 0:31:19.360 --> 0:31:23.200 guys know this, how much does he understand the playbook? 0:31:23.680 --> 0:31:25.640 How many different places? Because I asked Kellen, you know, 0:31:26.040 --> 0:31:28.360 you know you have him concentrated on one spot. You 0:31:28.360 --> 0:31:30.600 have to play, so you know, so he's gonna have 0:31:30.640 --> 0:31:33.920 to learn. But if you're Washington, you think of this. 0:31:33.920 --> 0:31:37.120 This is your second this is your second opportunity. You know, 0:31:38.160 --> 0:31:40.040 do or do not? There is no more try. I mean, 0:31:40.120 --> 0:31:41.920 if you can't, if you can't make it here not, 0:31:42.120 --> 0:31:43.600 I don't know how many more stops in the desert 0:31:43.640 --> 0:31:47.040 you're gonna get. Des Bryant tweeted about how he really 0:31:47.040 --> 0:31:50.400 thinks Dallas got themselves a real good receiver. Let's see 0:31:50.440 --> 0:31:52.560 what he can do here. The issue for him in 0:31:52.600 --> 0:31:55.320 Pittsburgh is kind of like the Cowboys know how to 0:31:55.400 --> 0:31:58.080 draft offensive line in the first round and how to 0:31:58.120 --> 0:32:01.200 find them. The Steelers know how to find and hey man, 0:32:01.200 --> 0:32:03.440 you're slipping here. Next thing, you know what, what's a 0:32:03.600 --> 0:32:08.920 boy's name that m Claypool. Yes, Claypool passed him right 0:32:08.920 --> 0:32:11.920 there and he got the trust of Ben. But right now, 0:32:12.040 --> 0:32:15.680 to me, the opportunity for James Washington to step in 0:32:15.760 --> 0:32:18.400 here and be a viable number two target is here. 0:32:18.960 --> 0:32:22.080 You you you know, we'll see, we'll see, we'll see. 0:32:22.120 --> 0:32:25.720 But this is your opportunity. Went to Oklahoma State. Let's 0:32:25.760 --> 0:32:28.120 see what you're gonna do. I'm really looking forward to 0:32:28.160 --> 0:32:30.000 seeing what he can do that don't match. Just makes 0:32:30.040 --> 0:32:31.880 me nervous, man, because if you look at it, we 0:32:32.280 --> 0:32:34.680 look right, it's the office we're gonna try out there. CD. 0:32:35.720 --> 0:32:38.440 James Washington maybe told her if he can pick up 0:32:38.480 --> 0:32:42.640 the system and adult shots. I mean those they're a 0:32:42.680 --> 0:32:44.320 good player. But I'm like, is that is that a 0:32:44.480 --> 0:32:47.040 dynamic enough offense to go out there and win you 0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:49.800 some games? I know we got a good defense, you know, 0:32:49.880 --> 0:32:52.160 but kill them are in the offense. Man, it's a 0:32:52.200 --> 0:32:56.080 scheme offense. You looking for guys to just be winning 0:32:56.080 --> 0:32:58.000 one on one matchups all the time, right, You're looking 0:32:58.040 --> 0:32:59.640 for guys who can run the rocks and get open 0:32:59.680 --> 0:33:01.200 and that press. I got to hit the right guy. 0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:04.280 Do we have a guy out there like DeVante Adams 0:33:04.280 --> 0:33:06.640 to where it's it's third and six, third and seven 0:33:06.640 --> 0:33:08.200 and you know that that guy is getting the ball. 0:33:08.240 --> 0:33:09.720 Do we have that guy out there? Can CD be 0:33:09.840 --> 0:33:12.600 that guy? Maybe? But it's Kelly Moore going to allow 0:33:12.680 --> 0:33:14.600 him the opportunity to be that guy. What we saw 0:33:14.680 --> 0:33:16.720 last year was he did not allow Mark Cooper to 0:33:16.760 --> 0:33:20.280 be that guy. So let's unless that changes who we 0:33:20.320 --> 0:33:22.800 tried out there. Really, as long as they can catch 0:33:22.800 --> 0:33:24.600 the ball and run the right route, I think that 0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:26.600 is the most important part. But if you're looking for 0:33:26.640 --> 0:33:28.640 guys who can beat guys one on one and Keller 0:33:28.680 --> 0:33:30.560 Moore is gonna allow you to do that, then then 0:33:30.560 --> 0:33:33.000 it's a different story. Is this receiving core? Is it 0:33:33.080 --> 0:33:35.160 is it? Would you say it's an upgrade over last 0:33:35.240 --> 0:33:40.080 year or would you say it's it's a downgrade? What 0:33:40.200 --> 0:33:43.000 would you say that right now? I'm just say it's even, 0:33:43.080 --> 0:33:45.880 it's even. But what we got out of a Mark 0:33:45.920 --> 0:33:48.760 Cooper last year and for what and what you know, 0:33:48.920 --> 0:33:51.880 the plays they didn't know did call from whoever? Whoever's fault? 0:33:51.920 --> 0:33:54.160 It was whatever we got from a Mark Cooper last year, 0:33:54.200 --> 0:33:55.800 I think we can get that from other guys on 0:33:55.840 --> 0:33:58.840 the roster. And and and Noah Brown, you know, he's 0:33:59.160 --> 0:34:03.080 you want opportunity, it's here, so let's see what they 0:34:03.120 --> 0:34:04.640 do with it. And that's that for me, That's what 0:34:04.680 --> 0:34:06.480 I'm gonna be looking at. Is they going to OTAs 0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:09.200 and going to training camp. There are opportunities here. Who's 0:34:09.239 --> 0:34:11.759 going to step forward and take advantage of those opportunities? 0:34:11.760 --> 0:34:13.680 You know what? I also have a feeling that Unfortunately 0:34:13.680 --> 0:34:15.600 for my man Zeke that Tony Poler is gonna get 0:34:15.600 --> 0:34:18.319 a lot of third down opportunities this season. I think 0:34:18.320 --> 0:34:19.719 he's gonna be getting a lot of out of the 0:34:19.719 --> 0:34:23.200 backfield opportunities, like Alvin Kamar some of those guys who 0:34:23.000 --> 0:34:25.000 who get a lot of shots on third down. So 0:34:25.080 --> 0:34:27.279 here's a question, what about putting them both out there 0:34:27.320 --> 0:34:30.080 on the field the same time? If you have issues 0:34:30.120 --> 0:34:32.760 in terms of, hey, we don't know about another receiver. 0:34:32.880 --> 0:34:35.279 We know Tony can catch the football. Why not put 0:34:35.280 --> 0:34:37.879 both guys out there? Mean Kellen Moore's is I ain't 0:34:38.160 --> 0:34:40.120 okay the guru put something that you put a twenty 0:34:40.120 --> 0:34:41.800 person up, but then you could take Sholtalk. I'm not 0:34:41.920 --> 0:34:43.920 I'm not lying when I'm not lying in Tony poled 0:34:44.000 --> 0:34:46.319 up at receiver. And then if I do put them 0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:48.080 in the backfield, then where am I gonna put Zeke 0:34:48.120 --> 0:34:50.439 And I'm not gonna line up in twenty personality entire again? 0:34:50.520 --> 0:34:53.080 Like that? That that limits you and what you're able 0:34:53.120 --> 0:34:55.160 to do. Like you said, Shultz has to be out 0:34:55.440 --> 0:34:58.200 or if Shoultz is out at the slot and then 0:34:58.200 --> 0:35:00.479 all of a sudden, now you gotta missmake to the slot. 0:35:00.480 --> 0:35:02.520 Because you got a corner on should so I don't 0:35:02.560 --> 0:35:04.319 see them both being on the field at the same time. 0:35:04.360 --> 0:35:06.200 Somebody's gonna have to lose a little bit, and I 0:35:06.239 --> 0:35:09.319 could see them trusting Tony Pollard to give them more 0:35:09.320 --> 0:35:11.839 opportunities in that big playability on third day. This will 0:35:11.880 --> 0:35:17.600 be the perfect setup to just dominate in the runk game. Yeah, 0:35:17.880 --> 0:35:21.120 we got nobody on the outside. This will be the 0:35:21.360 --> 0:35:33.080 perfect setup that play action. Sean Payton, Let's take a 0:35:33.120 --> 0:35:36.600 break out here, take a players side Hotels that kind 0:35:36.600 --> 0:35:41.839 of right hell downscop game day. You know what that means.

I'm news just merely here to facilitate. 0:37:54.000 --> 0:37:58.000 I was reading Peter King's Monday Morning Football Comedy does 0:37:58.040 --> 0:38:01.080 over There or Football Morning in America. He's changed it too, 0:38:01.160 --> 0:38:04.360 but he came out with his power rankings that's Cowboys 0:38:04.440 --> 0:38:09.320 fifteen fifteen, and I look at it and I get it. 0:38:09.680 --> 0:38:14.040 In this media world where they want constant content, because 0:38:14.120 --> 0:38:17.680 if it's one thing we know about the NFL is 0:38:17.719 --> 0:38:20.080 you're basing it all off last year. It's like stock returns, 0:38:20.080 --> 0:38:23.880 you're based it off all last year. Because nobody had 0:38:23.920 --> 0:38:26.640 the Bengals in the playoffs, much less winning their division, 0:38:27.160 --> 0:38:31.920 or maybe one or two blocked people away from winning 0:38:31.960 --> 0:38:38.960 the whole thing. I mean it's a big one. Yeah, yeah, 0:38:39.440 --> 0:38:42.080 really really uh And and I had I did an 0:38:42.120 --> 0:38:46.120 interview over Mad Dog Sports Radio and say, hey, what 0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:47.880 are the Cowboys winning East this year? They should win 0:38:47.920 --> 0:38:49.879 the East? I said, don't say that. I said, that's 0:38:50.000 --> 0:38:51.840 I said all. I said, that's a little arrogant to 0:38:51.960 --> 0:38:54.240 just think that they're gonna win it because the division 0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:55.960 has been bad so many years in a row. I said, 0:38:55.960 --> 0:38:59.520 they played a first play schedule. And when we talk 0:38:59.560 --> 0:39:01.440 about it, Danny, we look at this thing and I 0:39:01.800 --> 0:39:03.800 I keep telling people, and I think people would just 0:39:04.200 --> 0:39:07.400 think I'm I'm stupid or something. But these are some 0:39:07.600 --> 0:39:10.560 real good quarterbacks on this list, and this is a 0:39:10.680 --> 0:39:15.200 quarterback league. We start, I mean, we won. You got 0:39:15.239 --> 0:39:18.000 two dudes who played a Super Bowl, you know, Tom 0:39:18.080 --> 0:39:21.960 Brady who's won six of them, then seven. Then you 0:39:22.040 --> 0:39:25.800 got you got Joe Joe Burrow who had the football, 0:39:25.880 --> 0:39:27.759 what opportunity to win the dog on thing and his 0:39:27.840 --> 0:39:31.680 offensive line got him killed. Um that's no joke, man. 0:39:32.120 --> 0:39:35.759 But you got Matt Stafford out here. Um, you've got 0:39:35.840 --> 0:39:38.440 Aaron Rodgers. You got to go to Minnesota. And if 0:39:38.520 --> 0:39:40.560 Kirk Cousins decides how to throw the ball away, you 0:39:40.640 --> 0:39:42.520 know he may. We've seen him put up nervous. He's 0:39:42.560 --> 0:39:45.400 beating the Cowboys before Matt Ryan and Houston are gonna come. 0:39:45.400 --> 0:39:48.279 I mean, Matt Ryan Indianapolis are coming to town. Here. Um, 0:39:50.280 --> 0:39:52.640 who knows maybe Ryan Tannehill by December twenty eight, who 0:39:52.719 --> 0:39:58.880 knows him at the backup? Who knows nobody? But but 0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:00.560 at the end of the day, just just keep going 0:40:00.640 --> 0:40:03.720 back into This is not easy. And for some reason, 0:40:03.880 --> 0:40:07.560 people tend to think that you can base your team 0:40:07.600 --> 0:40:09.520 off last year's returns and this is going to be 0:40:09.640 --> 0:40:12.400 This is not easy. Hello, if you based it off 0:40:12.480 --> 0:40:14.600 last year's return you should not be assuming it's gonna 0:40:14.600 --> 0:40:17.719 be easy anyway, all right, because the thumps that we 0:40:17.920 --> 0:40:20.719 got from the physical teams, if that's something that we 0:40:20.920 --> 0:40:24.760 take into this year, the record you gave me, that's 0:40:24.760 --> 0:40:27.719 gonna be being graceful, all right, because it's gonna get 0:40:27.719 --> 0:40:29.480 a lot worse than that. I can just keep going 0:40:29.520 --> 0:40:31.200 back into my mind. First, you have to go through 0:40:31.239 --> 0:40:33.920 San Francisco because we're going back. San Francisco got out 0:40:33.960 --> 0:40:36.080 there and they outphysical us, all right. They ran the 0:40:36.160 --> 0:40:38.160 ball down our throat, they stopped the some offense. And 0:40:38.280 --> 0:40:39.600 then you can go all the way back to what 0:40:39.760 --> 0:40:43.040 happened after we played Denver. Denver put a blueprint out 0:40:43.040 --> 0:40:44.920 there for teams to say, this is what we're going 0:40:45.000 --> 0:40:46.560 to do, and we saw that for the rest of 0:40:46.640 --> 0:40:48.880 the season. The rest of the season, we saw that, 0:40:49.080 --> 0:40:51.000 and we finished off with you know, the Eagle team 0:40:51.040 --> 0:40:52.960 who didn't play many of these players and stuff, and 0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:55.400 everybody took that seriously, put up fifty up. They weren't 0:40:55.440 --> 0:40:59.279 playing the record. Yeah, of course he put five out 0:40:59.320 --> 0:41:03.320 this preseason. Yeah, undefeated in the division last year, scoring 0:41:03.360 --> 0:41:06.680 forty for averaging forty a game that gond happened this year, No, no, no, 0:41:06.719 --> 0:41:10.040 no happened one. Like I said, the final game of 0:41:10.120 --> 0:41:12.799 the Philly they didn't play any of they started right, 0:41:12.840 --> 0:41:15.839 what wasn't even competitive, all right? The Giants were who 0:41:15.920 --> 0:41:19.040 they were, Washington didn't have their foot, their quarterback who 0:41:19.080 --> 0:41:21.360 they depended on. This is going to be a totally 0:41:21.440 --> 0:41:25.000 different year, totally different totally different teams, totally different years. 0:41:25.040 --> 0:41:27.360 So absolutely not. We need we need to become a 0:41:27.400 --> 0:41:29.480 different team anyway, what a doubt this is gonna be 0:41:29.480 --> 0:41:32.000 a different division. I mean, you know, Carson Wentz isn't 0:41:32.040 --> 0:41:34.240 the greatest quarterback, but I believe he's better than Taylor Haneke. 0:41:34.760 --> 0:41:36.799 Uh you know New York they brought that they ball live. 0:41:40.719 --> 0:41:44.960 I'm gonna say he's hold onto the ball, holding on 0:41:45.719 --> 0:41:49.520 in the first snap it threw. And keep in mind 0:41:49.640 --> 0:41:52.399 that was that was their backup quarterback. They attached all 0:41:52.400 --> 0:41:55.719 there there. Oh yeah, it's it's magic. It was a 0:41:55.760 --> 0:41:57.440 lot of people trying to trade on digs though, you know, 0:41:57.760 --> 0:42:01.640 they were trying to gotta had that mean. But like, 0:42:02.080 --> 0:42:04.680 I think I think they looking the chops Carson Wentz around. Yeah, 0:42:04.680 --> 0:42:06.960 I mean, you know, it's still gonna be bad. I 0:42:06.960 --> 0:42:08.920 think they're gonna be better, try to make the problem 0:42:09.320 --> 0:42:11.160 still get better because they still got they still got 0:42:11.239 --> 0:42:13.200 scared tear, they still got a running game. I think 0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:16.160 they're defense will play better because they're gonna I think 0:42:16.200 --> 0:42:18.680 they believe now that they got something right. And and 0:42:18.760 --> 0:42:20.640 it sucks on defense when you like when you go 0:42:20.680 --> 0:42:22.279 out there, you're like, man, an offense ain't gonna do nothing, 0:42:22.400 --> 0:42:25.120 but we'll be back out there. It is a horrible 0:42:25.200 --> 0:42:26.640 thing for you to go out there on defense and 0:42:26.680 --> 0:42:29.680 feel that way. So I think the Washington the Commanders 0:42:29.920 --> 0:42:31.400 are going to be a totally different team than they 0:42:31.440 --> 0:42:32.840 were last Are they gonna be good? I don't know, 0:42:32.920 --> 0:42:34.799 but they'll be They'll be very better. Let's see who 0:42:34.840 --> 0:42:37.160 the owner is over the weekend. Jared Bell at that 0:42:37.280 --> 0:42:39.960 story in USA Today, saying that they they are tired 0:42:40.000 --> 0:42:43.080 of Daniel Snyder and they're they're taking their taking votes 0:42:43.160 --> 0:42:46.160 right now to see whether or not he gets shown 0:42:46.200 --> 0:42:48.080 the door. It's gonna be Diddy and jay Z. You know, 0:42:48.080 --> 0:42:51.120 they go Flo Floyd money team. They're gonna put their 0:42:51.120 --> 0:42:54.200 money together. Man, They're gonna buy one one one vote 0:42:54.239 --> 0:42:56.600 to Daniel Snyder will having his favors gonna be Jerry. 0:42:56.719 --> 0:43:00.160 Jerry's loved him through the years, and UH had a 0:43:00.200 --> 0:43:01.799 buddy of mine say, hey, you think it's really gonna happen. 0:43:01.840 --> 0:43:03.759 I said, I hope not. I said, Jerry's not for it. 0:43:03.920 --> 0:43:06.080 That's the first thing. Jerry's not for it. I said. Secondly, 0:43:07.520 --> 0:43:09.960 you know, and he's he's watching man. I said, yeah, no, 0:43:10.280 --> 0:43:15.080 I hope say. I felt that terribly. Keep running that 0:43:15.120 --> 0:43:17.800 thing the dirt you did, now become the Vanderbilt to 0:43:17.880 --> 0:43:21.799 the NFC. That whole stands thing that they had, I mean, 0:43:21.880 --> 0:43:25.520 the bench thing that they had, Like, this is what 0:43:25.680 --> 0:43:29.960 your team is. You were broke on the stadium or 0:43:30.040 --> 0:43:32.920 something poop coming down on fans. This is what this is. 0:43:33.120 --> 0:43:35.279 This is what your organism. This is representing what your 0:43:35.360 --> 0:43:37.719 organization is. That is just it's not good. It's about too. 0:43:39.800 --> 0:43:41.960 I was right before the pandem but the last time 0:43:42.000 --> 0:43:44.239 I went up there, it rained, and it was raining 0:43:44.239 --> 0:43:46.440 in the press box with Kraine was coming through statement. 0:43:46.480 --> 0:43:48.279 I was like, man, that's the trip I get. I 0:43:48.520 --> 0:43:51.239 like when they're playing this. January said, I will not 0:43:51.320 --> 0:43:53.719 be going. You ain't messing with it. I only want 0:43:53.760 --> 0:43:58.040 to go to Lay. I'm not going. I'm not going 0:43:58.120 --> 0:44:00.400 to La. I'm not going to La. The you already 0:44:00.400 --> 0:44:04.399 been to Colley so it falls on a school week. 0:44:06.000 --> 0:44:09.840 I won't go to Green May November thirteen. We know 0:44:09.920 --> 0:44:12.719 you don't want to go to that. Yeah, the Minnesota 0:44:12.880 --> 0:44:15.520 Minnesota Green Bay November thirteen and twenty. Yeah, those two 0:44:15.560 --> 0:44:19.120 Green Yeah, I want to hit that. Jacksonville though little 0:44:19.160 --> 0:44:25.640 warm down Therember so it look look man, but that's 0:44:25.680 --> 0:44:28.319 southing Georgia. So it could be real cold right then, 0:44:28.440 --> 0:44:33.359 so I just don't anticipate myself doing many trips this year. 0:44:34.440 --> 0:44:37.600 I hate going to Philly, so I might the Giants 0:44:37.719 --> 0:44:40.920 Monday Night. Maybe maybe I could. I don't enjoy going 0:44:40.960 --> 0:44:43.160 to New Jersey that I want no parts of Philadelphia, 0:44:43.800 --> 0:44:45.520 but they may I may. I may have to go 0:44:45.600 --> 0:44:47.719 to Philly. So yeah, I might be about one of 0:44:47.800 --> 0:44:49.360 two trips this sy There's not many on here. I 0:44:49.440 --> 0:44:51.600 see Philly, so we expect to see you pretty much 0:44:51.600 --> 0:44:54.799 the whole season right here on the play Monday's Baby, 0:44:54.800 --> 0:44:57.680 I'm right back here on don't let the team same 0:44:57.760 --> 0:45:03.279 for myself across that rope and to get so Peter 0:45:03.440 --> 0:45:06.560 King as the Cowboys. It's fifteen right now. Is power rankings, 0:45:06.600 --> 0:45:09.080 which is basically uh and then the middle of the pack, 0:45:09.200 --> 0:45:11.719 and you know that's fine. People are looking to the 0:45:11.840 --> 0:45:13.919 NFC East teams are just saying they don't think they're 0:45:14.000 --> 0:45:15.719 much there, though there are some who are saying, hey, 0:45:16.000 --> 0:45:17.719 the Eagles are going to be better, and then they're 0:45:17.760 --> 0:45:19.839 picking the Eagles, and see what they're saying. I keep saying, 0:45:19.920 --> 0:45:21.960 show me what the second year coach does, you know, 0:45:22.040 --> 0:45:24.879 can he be better? I think too many times people 0:45:24.920 --> 0:45:27.680 don't talk enough about coaching. You could put all this 0:45:27.760 --> 0:45:30.400 talent here, but does the coach have the ability to 0:45:30.520 --> 0:45:33.120 get what he needs to out of the town. I 0:45:33.239 --> 0:45:35.880 thought they improved during the year, But that's one of 0:45:35.920 --> 0:45:40.160 those collaborative type organizations. I hate those things. Collaborative type. 0:45:41.200 --> 0:45:45.479 He made them tirs. We was clown. They done, they done, 0:45:46.040 --> 0:45:50.440 They did get better, but that whole whole when the 0:45:50.840 --> 0:45:53.600 owner wants to be involved, then the GM wants to 0:45:53.680 --> 0:45:56.640 be involved, and the analytical department, everybody wants to get together. 0:45:57.000 --> 0:46:00.759 I just think collaborations don't work. No, with that collaborating 0:46:00.760 --> 0:46:05.120 in in La Sean McVay and him and less when 0:46:05.280 --> 0:46:06.520 this is what we're gonna do. When they went out, 0:46:06.520 --> 0:46:08.440 they ain't did it and they got it done. Um 0:46:08.960 --> 0:46:11.239 in Tampa Bay was Bruce figured out this is what 0:46:11.360 --> 0:46:14.719 Tom want to do and okay, okay, Tom, fine, it 0:46:14.840 --> 0:46:18.719 got done. You know, force Bruce about it. Belicheck Belichick 0:46:18.800 --> 0:46:21.480 not collaborate. I mean, just just whold collaboration. Everybody get 0:46:21.520 --> 0:46:24.000 a little take No, everybody. Everybody doesn't need to have 0:46:24.120 --> 0:46:27.440 a say in things. In my opinion, I agree with you. 0:46:27.800 --> 0:46:31.279 I would agree with you on that one head coach, 0:46:31.480 --> 0:46:33.120 you make the decisions. Because I think we got some 0:46:33.200 --> 0:46:36.400 collaboration going on in here. But I still think Mike 0:46:36.520 --> 0:46:40.000 mccarthur should be calling a place, but especially this year. 0:46:41.080 --> 0:46:44.120 And if you want to hot seat this year, and now, 0:46:44.120 --> 0:46:46.360 if I was on the hot I'm going down throwing 0:46:46.440 --> 0:46:48.680 my own punches. I'm not going down because this man 0:46:48.760 --> 0:46:50.960 can't decide to run the football or not. Look if 0:46:51.000 --> 0:46:54.480 it's me, man, we're calling this, We're calling that. I'm 0:46:54.520 --> 0:46:56.360 forcing them upstairs and say you know you can't do 0:46:56.480 --> 0:46:58.319 this or you can't do that. I mean you gotta 0:46:58.320 --> 0:47:00.520 go down swear. You just can't lose your job off 0:47:00.560 --> 0:47:03.600 for somebody else. That's what Bill Parcels ended up doing 0:47:03.640 --> 0:47:05.239 after his first year with the Giant. He's like, man, 0:47:05.320 --> 0:47:07.040 they give me another shot, We'll come back. Do it 0:47:07.120 --> 0:47:09.239 in my ways. Like if I'm gonna get fired, I 0:47:09.320 --> 0:47:11.359 will be fired doing it my way. And he would 0:47:12.120 --> 0:47:15.719 essentially say that to other young coaches and again, hey man, 0:47:15.840 --> 0:47:18.279 you know, if they're gonna get you, don't don't don't 0:47:18.360 --> 0:47:21.120 get got doing it their way. Do it your way, 0:47:21.239 --> 0:47:22.960 and then you can live with yourself other than the 0:47:23.000 --> 0:47:25.960 whole collaboration and everybody's sitting there and telling you what 0:47:26.000 --> 0:47:29.480 to do. Do you think he's allowed to call plays? Like? 0:47:29.640 --> 0:47:31.799 Once again, if you're gonna get fired at this point 0:47:31.800 --> 0:47:35.120 in time, you might as well be fired doing it 0:47:35.239 --> 0:47:39.879 all your way. And there are ways that you can 0:47:42.200 --> 0:47:45.400 make suggestions. You'd run a ball, you run a ball here. 0:47:45.400 --> 0:47:47.480 I mean, there's ways he can get not called the plays. 0:47:47.560 --> 0:47:50.799 But but you know, be heavily involved in it. I've 0:47:50.840 --> 0:47:53.320 seen other coaches do that in their own way. So 0:47:54.320 --> 0:47:56.080 or you know what, during the year, how many times 0:47:56.120 --> 0:47:59.160 have we seen Champagne. Champagne had his play calling duties 0:47:59.239 --> 0:48:00.640 listed from him when he was at the Giants and 0:48:00.760 --> 0:48:03.560 Jim Fossil took over. So and if people forget when 0:48:03.600 --> 0:48:06.080 Sean got here, his name was kind of damaged in 0:48:06.120 --> 0:48:09.640 the league and Bill Parcel's helped rebuild it. Yeah, I 0:48:09.800 --> 0:48:11.879 just can't say that enough here right If I'm gonna 0:48:11.880 --> 0:48:15.920 get fired, you know that big old place sheet will 0:48:15.960 --> 0:48:19.400 sit more going up and down right here. If you're 0:48:19.440 --> 0:48:21.440 going if you're going to be a running team, all right, 0:48:21.440 --> 0:48:24.480 When you're going to be a running team, it starts now, though, 0:48:24.920 --> 0:48:26.680 you know what I'm saying. When you're in OTAs, when 0:48:26.680 --> 0:48:28.839 you're going through a mini camp and that you move 0:48:28.880 --> 0:48:31.560 into training camp. That's when you need to start working 0:48:31.640 --> 0:48:33.560 on your run game, all right. Because as much as 0:48:33.600 --> 0:48:35.520 we want to say you could just snatch the playbook 0:48:35.600 --> 0:48:37.479 and be like, we're gonna call a run, it don't 0:48:37.480 --> 0:48:39.640 work like that for your team. So they need to 0:48:39.719 --> 0:48:42.399 they need to be working on their schemes. If guys 0:48:42.440 --> 0:48:44.759 are gonna be pulling, they need to be pulling while 0:48:44.800 --> 0:48:46.879 they're in training camp and mini camp because that ain't 0:48:46.920 --> 0:48:48.200 something you could just all of a sudden be like, 0:48:48.239 --> 0:48:50.080 all right, this is what we're gonna start calling, because 0:48:50.120 --> 0:48:51.680 it ain't that easy. The dudes on the other side 0:48:51.719 --> 0:48:53.880 get paid well to be able to know how to 0:48:53.960 --> 0:48:56.320 take on pulling guards and how to how to backside 0:48:56.360 --> 0:48:58.120 them and you know what I'm saying and disrupt those 0:48:58.160 --> 0:48:59.680 type of plays. So if you're not working on it 0:48:59.800 --> 0:49:02.359 now up through the season, you can't just turn into 0:49:02.360 --> 0:49:03.799 a running team, which is what we saw last year. 0:49:03.800 --> 0:49:06.080 We weren't a running team against Tampa, and we tried 0:49:06.120 --> 0:49:07.960 to become well, we never tried to become one, but 0:49:08.520 --> 0:49:10.439 they started saying, well, we didin't getting no yards because 0:49:10.440 --> 0:49:12.360 you ain't work on it. Yeah, do you think it. 0:49:12.440 --> 0:49:15.200 Do you think it has anything to do with you know, look, man, 0:49:15.280 --> 0:49:18.080 we paid Dag all this money. We want him to 0:49:18.160 --> 0:49:21.239 be the reason that this team is successful. This team, 0:49:21.320 --> 0:49:25.360 this team can offensively do damage. I had a former 0:49:25.560 --> 0:49:29.000 defensive coordinator tell me one of his problems, and actually 0:49:29.040 --> 0:49:30.440 one of his problems, but he also said one of 0:49:30.480 --> 0:49:34.080 the great things about, uh, you know, going against thirt teams, said, man, 0:49:34.080 --> 0:49:37.359 when I when I had these head coaches who were 0:49:37.440 --> 0:49:40.359 offensive guys, and these four and these quarterbacks who were 0:49:40.400 --> 0:49:42.120 now calling the place, he said, he just knew what 0:49:42.200 --> 0:49:44.800 they were going to do and what what when in trouble? 0:49:44.880 --> 0:49:47.520 Where were they leaning to the past? Yeah? Throw the 0:49:47.600 --> 0:49:50.640 ball um. That was one of my frustrations. It's just okay, 0:49:50.719 --> 0:49:52.759 you're down, you know, you're down ten points, and all 0:49:52.800 --> 0:49:58.600 of a sudden, the city and it's like what then 0:49:58.840 --> 0:50:01.080 that's when on the defensive just looking the other there, like, man, 0:50:01.120 --> 0:50:03.640 we're back on the field again. You make a big play, 0:50:03.680 --> 0:50:05.320 you get a turnover, then all of a sudden, offense 0:50:05.400 --> 0:50:06.960 goes out there and go three three and out, are 0:50:07.000 --> 0:50:08.759 four and out. There's some situations where they go for 0:50:08.880 --> 0:50:10.800 the fourth you can't get it, and the defense is 0:50:10.840 --> 0:50:12.879 back out there again. That is deflating. Man. You see 0:50:12.920 --> 0:50:15.480 hands down, guys can't even finish their water. That's the 0:50:15.560 --> 0:50:17.319 play because a lot of times you're giving them, dude 0:50:17.360 --> 0:50:20.399 the ball back at the fifty. Hey, what they're saying 0:50:20.800 --> 0:50:25.120 punt red? Like, ain't like that? We've gotta side like 0:50:25.160 --> 0:50:27.080 what I want? Like we no, ain't no way? They 0:50:27.200 --> 0:50:30.680 better pick up this third down. I'm like, can we 0:50:30.840 --> 0:50:34.759 go calling the fake? Ain't no way we punt? Come on, 0:50:35.280 --> 0:50:36.840 especially if you all in the punt teams at the 0:50:36.840 --> 0:50:39.440 wing position, which I played at the wing. You got big, 0:50:39.640 --> 0:50:41.960 But that's that was Jason Taylor was coming off the edge. 0:50:42.000 --> 0:50:43.560 I had somebody else coming off the edge. I'm like, 0:50:43.560 --> 0:50:45.239 because you're gonna be a punt stay so you know 0:50:45.239 --> 0:50:48.160 what I'm defend. Man. I had Jared Ellen. I said, man, 0:50:48.560 --> 0:50:50.360 how you were supposed to block? I ain't blocked? The 0:50:50.440 --> 0:50:52.759 man sins literally, how am I supposed I'm not the 0:50:52.880 --> 0:50:54.600 fast bro? You come hard, I'm gonna cut you. I'm 0:50:54.640 --> 0:50:57.640 never cool after you want to keep saying defense, but 0:50:58.000 --> 0:50:59.560 come on, I'm gonna I'm gonna ta your knees out. 0:50:59.560 --> 0:51:01.279 I'm just like, you know, I wasn't gonna do it. 0:51:01.400 --> 0:51:05.000 I just I just wanted them to not not before 0:51:05.040 --> 0:51:06.719 get out here, want to get your thoughts. James brad 0:51:06.760 --> 0:51:08.959 Berry ends up signing with the Philadelphia Eagles as a corner. 0:51:09.400 --> 0:51:11.680 I thought it was a good move. I think brad Berry. 0:51:11.760 --> 0:51:14.440 I mean, I know he he takes the football the 0:51:14.480 --> 0:51:16.040 way well as a corner. I think he had four 0:51:16.080 --> 0:51:17.640 picks last year. He gave up a lot of yards 0:51:17.760 --> 0:51:20.359 last year. But that whole situation in New York last 0:51:20.440 --> 0:51:22.320 year was it was just under turmoil. So you know, 0:51:22.360 --> 0:51:25.080 I think he's an extremely solid corner. And you put him, 0:51:25.160 --> 0:51:27.000 you pair him with Darius Slay out there. You got 0:51:27.040 --> 0:51:28.680 a nice one two combo out there. You got a 0:51:28.719 --> 0:51:30.680 real nice one too, combo with a d line that 0:51:30.719 --> 0:51:32.279 can get after the quarterback and make him throw the 0:51:32.320 --> 0:51:34.960 ball quick. You were you working with some grease out there. Yeah. 0:51:35.000 --> 0:51:38.520 I thought it was a good signing. The Eagles are 0:51:38.719 --> 0:51:41.160 making some they making some moves. They continue to say, 0:51:41.239 --> 0:51:43.040 hey man, we're going to make these robster moves to 0:51:43.080 --> 0:51:45.080 make us a better a better squad. And they went 0:51:45.120 --> 0:51:47.239 into the went into the last year they knowing where 0:51:47.280 --> 0:51:49.520 their deficiencies were, and they're like, listen, we can get 0:51:49.600 --> 0:51:51.719 better by getting Bradbury, and I think they did get better. 0:51:52.200 --> 0:51:53.680 Like what you want to do is be able to cover. 0:51:53.760 --> 0:51:56.040 So they're looking around a division, they're looking around the NFC, 0:51:56.160 --> 0:51:57.880 and they're saying, what we need to do to be 0:51:57.960 --> 0:51:59.920 able to win is cover some guys because there are 0:52:00.160 --> 0:52:02.200 some good quarterbacks that we're going to have to face. 0:52:02.440 --> 0:52:04.879 And I think I think they got better with that movie. 0:52:05.400 --> 0:52:09.240 Solid Corner. You know what, one more thing? Okay, shout 0:52:09.280 --> 0:52:11.759 out to you know, prins up to what's what's my man? 0:52:11.840 --> 0:52:20.640 That just ruptured his achilles and workout video and North 0:52:20.680 --> 0:52:23.320 Carolina Anti man, I heard, like I watched it. You 0:52:23.440 --> 0:52:26.120 can't hear hear that pop? Man. I didn't watch it. 0:52:26.280 --> 0:52:28.600 I purposely said I did not want to watch. And 0:52:28.680 --> 0:52:30.480 then it sounds because he was a free agent, so 0:52:30.560 --> 0:52:32.280 it wasn't like he was working out at the facility 0:52:32.680 --> 0:52:34.120 and so he has to go get his own you know, 0:52:34.239 --> 0:52:36.920 treatment and stuff. But man, you could and with the 0:52:37.000 --> 0:52:39.600 achilles this fluke, it's I hat it's fluke. Like I 0:52:39.680 --> 0:52:42.360 was just backpedaling with the plant, go forward, nothing crazy, 0:52:42.800 --> 0:52:44.440 and it just pops. Man. It was sad because you 0:52:44.480 --> 0:52:46.279 can hear him too, He's like, no, not like this, 0:52:46.600 --> 0:52:48.759 and it's one live at the moment, so at this 0:52:48.840 --> 0:52:51.280 point you can't even hide it. Like everybody had already 0:52:51.320 --> 0:52:54.799 seen it. You know. It's just like, man, that's rough 0:52:54.920 --> 0:52:56.880 and that's part of the game, man. But that sucks 0:52:57.080 --> 0:52:58.880 because he just came off of the year before he 0:52:59.000 --> 0:53:01.600 tores ACL, so he was getting back, getting ready to 0:53:01.680 --> 0:53:03.080 you know, trying to sign with a team, and then 0:53:03.160 --> 0:53:05.120 boom and he just like you said, you could just 0:53:05.160 --> 0:53:07.279 see it in his face and he was just like, nah, man, Nah, 0:53:07.440 --> 0:53:10.040 it's just tough, man, it's tough. Clay Thompson kind of 0:53:10.040 --> 0:53:13.319 went through those State Warriors and this is his first 0:53:13.440 --> 0:53:17.279 year back, and even during these playoffs you can see 0:53:17.640 --> 0:53:22.480 where he has moments where he's old Clay, but it's 0:53:22.480 --> 0:53:24.839 still just trying to get back, and then certain people 0:53:24.840 --> 0:53:26.399 are trying to you know, he's not what he used 0:53:26.400 --> 0:53:30.000 to be. And I just kind of say to myself, Um, clearly, 0:53:30.040 --> 0:53:33.239 you guys don't understand athletics at this level. To go 0:53:33.320 --> 0:53:35.800 through an ACL and Achilles back to back, just to 0:53:35.880 --> 0:53:38.080 be out here doing what he's doing is it's pretty phenomenal. 0:53:38.520 --> 0:53:41.840 It's about you're you're You're in the Western Conference finals. 0:53:41.840 --> 0:53:43.440 I mean, this is you're in the final four. Um, 0:53:43.760 --> 0:53:45.440 you gotta be pretty good to get this far here, 0:53:45.480 --> 0:53:47.320 and and he's done. He's done a nice job, but 0:53:47.360 --> 0:53:48.840 he's still not back to where he needs to be. 0:53:49.000 --> 0:53:51.759 And he had he had two big dumps and then 0:53:52.200 --> 0:53:53.840 the one that I that I can remember, and I 0:53:53.920 --> 0:53:56.240 was like, okay, Clay getting right. He put the clamps 0:53:56.280 --> 0:54:00.400 on Luca at the end of the game, flipping the 0:54:00.440 --> 0:54:01.759 hips and not. I was like, okay, all right, this 0:54:02.080 --> 0:54:04.440 is this is that all defensive team that Clay was 0:54:04.480 --> 0:54:06.080 making when he when he rolls up on that, I 0:54:07.719 --> 0:54:10.680 see it right there where I was, oh, yeah, okay, okay, 0:54:10.960 --> 0:54:13.040 and actually said those spurts of moments where you could 0:54:13.040 --> 0:54:15.000 just see where he was getting back to himself and boy, 0:54:15.000 --> 0:54:16.759 it ain't terrorize him in the Clay and the good 0:54:16.800 --> 0:54:19.600 thing about Clay his game is you know, more about shooting. 0:54:19.600 --> 0:54:21.359 It's not he doesn't. He's not a high flyer. He doesn't. 0:54:21.600 --> 0:54:24.239 But Terco and his game was all about speed, all 0:54:24.320 --> 0:54:26.680 about speed. And when you got an acl and Achilles, 0:54:27.040 --> 0:54:29.399 that takes a step from you man, saw like you said, 0:54:29.440 --> 0:54:31.560 prayers up. Hopefully he can get a full recovery with 0:54:31.680 --> 0:54:34.080 with him being a yeah, not on the squad or 0:54:34.160 --> 0:54:37.640 not like that's that's just rough man. It sucks for 0:54:37.760 --> 0:54:40.080 that to happen to him. Football's tough sport. I tell 0:54:40.120 --> 0:54:42.319 all my friends who who talk about, Oh, these guys 0:54:42.400 --> 0:54:44.160 get paid a lot of moneys. I said, you know what, 0:54:44.520 --> 0:54:47.800 I don't know anybody who leaves this who leaves the 0:54:47.880 --> 0:54:52.040 game without some type of lifelong injured something. Oh yeah, 0:54:52.120 --> 0:54:54.960 so you're taking this this game. You left something. If 0:54:55.000 --> 0:54:56.879 you got the pension, you gave something to the game. 0:54:58.120 --> 0:55:00.360 What's your body part like? And can't know next to 0:55:00.440 --> 0:55:02.080 the bus how to put what body parts? You left 0:55:02.120 --> 0:55:04.759 the game? Because when you go there and you see those, 0:55:04.880 --> 0:55:07.960 you see those, you see those old timers man, and 0:55:08.040 --> 0:55:10.680 you just see, man, it's tough cats. And yeah, I 0:55:10.920 --> 0:55:13.440 had my hip the other day and knees and stuff. 0:55:13.440 --> 0:55:16.680 I mean it's it's uh, you leave something, man.

The game has 0:56:34.360 --> 0:56:38.920 changed five back then, right, so so the game has changed. 0:56:38.960 --> 0:56:41.480 But just he lives up in Flower Mound, and you know, 0:56:41.560 --> 0:56:45.000 he's he's he is very into the Cowboys.
