00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 5: Absolutely?

11
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 6: It is Tuesday, December twenty sixth, twenty twenty three, Season nineteen,

12
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 6: episode number ninety five. Welcome to the latest edition All

13
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 6: of the Break. It is uh, it is a Tuesday,

14
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 6: but it feels like a Wednesday because the Cowboys are

15
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 6: getting ready for a Saturday game and we're talking about

16
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 6: a game that happened on Sunday, Sunday.

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: Sunday Sunday.

18
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 6: It's we're all over the map today. We're gonna recap

19
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 6: that game. It was an interesting game. Although the Cowboys

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 6: lost it lost, there were lots of things I think

21
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 6: that came out of the game that were noteworthy that

22
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 6: we're going to talk about today. And then tomorrow we'll

23
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 6: jump right in and we'll start getting you guys ready

24
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 6: for Cowboys versus Lions. We'll talk about the Lions offense

25
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 6: tomorrow versus this Cowboys defense. But let's start first with

26
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 6: the game versus Miami Dallas loses twenty two to twenty.

27
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,839
Speaker 6: Tell me storyline a game. Let's go around the table.

28
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 6: Storyline the game Patrol, I'll start with.

29
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 4: You for me.

30
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 3: It was basically that this was Philadelphia all over again.

31
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 3: It is a winnable game from the Cowboys. If you

32
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: go in and you tell me that they're going to

33
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 3: hold the Miami Dolphins offense to only one touchdown, I'll

34
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 3: tell you they win this game. But they did just

35
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 3: enough to not win the game. Talk about the fumbled

36
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 3: handoff the hunterd lip Key on what was an exceptional

37
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: opening drive, and of course preceding that, Tony Poller gets

38
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 3: turned around he can't get in. That matters as well.

39
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 3: And then fast forward to the offense stalling largely because

40
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 3: your offensive line just didn't hold up to what you doga.

41
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 3: We get him roses for playing well earlier the season.

42
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 3: He had a very very bad dad at the offense.

43
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott pressured on almost half of his dropbacks and

44
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: just couldn't get the offense going because of that, and

45
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 3: then penalties. Here we are t type and timing penalties.

46
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 3: That final offensive drive by the Dolphins, you get the

47
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 3: face mask when de moont Clark gives them fifteen yards

48
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: helps Jym start what was an eventual game winning field

49
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 3: goal drive. So it was for me, it was the

50
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 3: Philadelphia game all over again, and that's what makes it frustrating.

51
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 3: This was not a situation where they got beat down

52
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 3: like against the forty nine ers, where they got handled

53
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 3: by the Bills because of penalties and then that train

54
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 3: went off the rails. They were competitive throughout this contest.

55
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 3: Defense bent didn't break, but ultimately the defense broke because

56
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 3: the complimentary football was not there.

57
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know what to tell you.

58
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 7: I mean this tough loss. For sure.

59
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 5: I think we saw some improvement from the Cowboys playing

60
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 5: on the road against the team a very competitive team

61
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 5: like the Miami Dolphins. Patrick mentioned the opening drive and

62
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 5: that fumble, the recovery that Dolphins get it and all that,

63
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 5: and then they come back Cede Lamb he gets into

64
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 5: the end zone they touched. So they responded really, really

65
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 5: well to that mistake, which was good to see. They

66
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 5: were competitive, but it just wasn't enough. I did think

67
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 5: the defense was doing a good enough job. We knew

68
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 5: how many of like how many offensive weapons the Miami

69
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 5: Dolphins have and how explosive they are, how quick and

70
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 5: the defense. I thought they did a nice job all

71
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 5: in all, just being there fighting and doing what they could.

72
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 5: But the offense just couldn't catch up. And I'm concerned

73
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 5: right now. It's like, Okay, yeah they lost, Hey, let's

74
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 5: come back, rally up and all that. They're in the

75
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 5: playoffs already, so you at least have that spot. But

76
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 5: I'm thinking, how are they going to be able to

77
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 5: survive with this O line?

78
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 7: I'm thinking about the old line.

79
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm thinking, Okay, what if Tyron Smith it

80
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 5: rangers his back or maybe he's out longer than we think.

81
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 5: What are you doing to improve the offensive line? Because

82
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 5: that look that we got in this game, I don't

83
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 5: think you're gonna get very far with what you've got.

84
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 5: And it's very very hard to improve anyone's game, for example, chum,

85
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 5: how do you improve that in the last couple of

86
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 5: weeks that are left heading into the playoffs. So I

87
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 5: just I like their performance as far as like them

88
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 5: improving or showing signs of improvement on the road, But

89
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 5: all in all, I am concerned about what the future

90
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 5: holds with the current situation as far as the O

91
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 5: line health.

92
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 2: When they don't hear the attention to detail, they're not

93
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 2: going to win games. That's just not gonna happen. There

94
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 2: were several times in this game. And by the way,

95
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 2: Adoga isn't as terrible as everybody says. I think the

96
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 2: mental mistakes that he made or farm worse than the

97
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 2: physical mistakes that he game. I think your quarterback made

98
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 2: a couple of mental mistakes too. I think there were

99
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: some hot reads that they missed on. I think one

100
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 2: time they took a sack because they felt like that

101
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 2: they were he had something picked up that wasn't picked up.

102
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 2: You went away from creativity that you had early in

103
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 2: the game, you know, and you you you went and

104
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 2: focused on other areas of the game. When you had

105
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 2: an advantage with your receiver, you could have wore them

106
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 2: out in this game with your with cede lamp. Again,

107
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 2: attention to detail on that, continue on trying to attack mode.

108
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 2: Did a good job playing run defense against these guys.

109
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 2: But you know, if you're if you're not, if you're

110
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 2: gonna let teams break you down with blitzes and and

111
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: make force you with mental areas you're not gonna win games.

112
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 2: And as simple as that right there, because they had

113
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 2: ability to win this football game. And you know, like say,

114
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 2: you don't give up huge plays on defense. You got

115
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 2: fortunate though on the on the one play that Hill

116
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 2: dropped earlier, that could have been a touchdown right out

117
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 2: of the gate coming out of there. But you know

118
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 2: what did they do. They moved you with motion to

119
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: get create matchups. They did it a couple of times

120
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 2: during that game. You know, you just got to be

121
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: ready for that stuff. And it goes back to you know,

122
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 2: the penalties or a problem. You know, the things that

123
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 2: like I say, you know when you're supposed to blitz,

124
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 2: pick up being in the right spot. Quarterback moves the

125
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 2: back to one side, blitz comes from the side that

126
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 2: he moves the guy away from. Those are all attention

127
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: to details you got to have to win football games.

128
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 4: You mentioned Dak Prescott.

129
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 6: He was twenty to thirty two, two hundred and fifty

130
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 6: three yards, two touchdowns, no interception on one hundred and

131
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 6: seven point nine rating.

132
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 4: But Brian, I agree with you.

133
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 6: I was going back this morning and I was watching

134
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 6: a lot of those pass plays, and one of the

135
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 6: things that stuck out stuck out to me, which hasn't

136
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 6: been something we've noticed a lot from Dak recently. He's

137
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 6: been really just hot and he knows very decisive with

138
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 6: the ball. Yeah, I don't think he was that in

139
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 6: that game Sat Sunday. I think there were a number

140
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 6: of different times where they ended up with a sack

141
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 6: or he ended up with pressure because he didn't he didn't.

142
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 4: I don't know if he wasn't seeing it or if he.

143
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 6: Was anticipating that a guy was gonna like cut off

144
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 6: the route, But there were times it appeared again from

145
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 6: our vantage point looking from that top camera.

146
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 4: You know, you're not behind the center, so you don't know,

147
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 4: but but.

148
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 6: From our vantage point, it looked like there were guys

149
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 6: that were open and all you had do was just

150
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 6: let it go. And it just seemed like, for whatever reason,

151
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 6: he was a bit more tentative. Did you guys see

152
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 6: the same thing and what would you attribute that to?

153
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 3: I think that at times I did see this huge

154
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 3: I think that some of that goes to just the

155
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 3: offensive line struggles, and I don't think he felt comfortable

156
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 3: in most much of that game. On his drop back,

157
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 3: so it likely disrupted some of his time in some

158
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 3: of his reads and and just his overall window of operation.

159
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 3: So I did see that a few times where it's

160
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 3: just like, okay, if you get rid of the ball

161
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 3: right now, then that's that's a first down potentially. But

162
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 3: he you know, the pressure was coming at several points.

163
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 3: Talk about chewmy Dogan. I mentioned this on my hit

164
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 3: with one O five to three the fan this morning.

165
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 3: When it comes to Chumu, I don't think Chuma got

166
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 3: beat up physically. That's not my issue with Chumua. My

167
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: issue with Chuma is choosing assignment. Like you don't let

168
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 3: Bradley Chubb run free to your quarterback trying to help

169
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 3: out Tyler Smith. Let Tyler Smith do what Tyler Smith

170
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 3: does and you get Bradley Chubb. So I think the

171
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,679
Speaker 3: amount of pressure that Dak Prescott felt in that game

172
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 3: just completely kept him unsettled and because he never was

173
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 3: able to settle in it just was not the usual

174
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott.

175
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they missed a shot too. I mean they run,

176
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: they they remember the remember the play that Turpin scored

177
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 2: on where they put him in the slot and they

178
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 2: ran vertical and the commanders tried to carry him with

179
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: a safety down in the middle, went to the same play,

180
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: ran the same play against the split safeties, and Dak

181
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: didn't throw the ball. And I don't for the life

182
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 2: of me, no, because to me, you put Turpin in

183
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 2: that situation to run that play, you clearly have a

184
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 2: mind that they're gonna play. They're gonna play twin, they're

185
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 2: gonna play two safeties back there, and we're gonna send

186
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: Turpin on a vertical that for a forty yard dash

187
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 2: and nobody's gonna be able to pick him up. And

188
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 2: for some reason, Dak just did not throw it. And

189
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 2: the play, I can say it's designed for him to

190
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 2: throw the ball, lay it out there and let Turpin

191
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: run underneath it. There were several there were several times

192
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 2: where he pulled the ball down and one time Gallop

193
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 2: is on the outside, He's gonna throw the slam. Gallop

194
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 2: gets mugged. I mean, Ramsey is just beating him up.

195
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 2: And then so now what happens, you know, he falls down.

196
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: Now Dak forced to have to kind of try and

197
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 2: find play, go forward or throw it someplace else, you know.

198
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 2: I mean, there's there were some. There were some blitzes

199
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 2: that I think there were a couple, like I mentioned

200
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 2: the hots. You know, one time, like he's got Cooks,

201
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 2: He's got a blitzer coming on it into his face

202
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 2: and it's like you see, Cooks sees it's gonna be hot,

203
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 2: and he's eighty for it. I know, DA pulls it

204
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 2: and you're like, God, just hit him. Yeah, you know,

205
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 2: it's it's a five yard game. But at least you're

206
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: not taking an incomplete or a sack or a negative

207
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 2: play there. So you wonder, you know, what was going

208
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: through because there was a period of time for very

209
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: early in the game. I felt like he saw what

210
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: he needed to see, and they did some They did

211
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 2: some really good things, and it wasn't until the end

212
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 2: of the game that they started kind of getting Lamb

213
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 2: back in the game, you know, And I think that's

214
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 2: where all of a sudden, you know, it's the third

215
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 2: and six. I'll give you an example of that. Finally

216
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 2: McCarthy is able to scheme Lamb open and it's trips

217
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 2: to the right. Torbert motions away to the sidelines. And

218
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 2: now what they did was they got they got the safe,

219
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 2: they got the corner out of the way and then

220
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 2: the route comes to the corner, route comes to the sidelines,

221
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 2: ball goes right there. There you go. That's the kind

222
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 2: of stuff that you know, you saw it early in

223
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 2: the game, but then it's the in the like for

224
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: two quarters you were like, what offense is this running?

225
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 2: Or you know, what offense is this playing football right now?

226
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 2: And you know, whether it was the blind, the line,

227
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: the receivers, quarterback, the head coach, the play caller, there

228
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 2: was just a disconnect for a couple of quarters there,

229
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:09,839
Speaker 2: and then they kind of figured things out at the end.

230
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 2: You know, it's probably a little bit too late that.

231
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 6: There was another play I noticed early on in the game.

232
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,599
Speaker 6: And this is again where I questioned, you know, was

233
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 6: it a situation where the pressure really got to Dak

234
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 6: Because some of these things were happening early enough in

235
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 6: the game where it was before he was just you know,

236
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 6: feeling that extra pressure. But there was one play where

237
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 6: literally I kind of stopped it.

238
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 4: I stopped the play.

239
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 6: And you've got Dak standing in the pocket, He's got

240
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 6: the ball up and there's gallop on the outside. He's

241
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 6: got two steps on the outside deep. If you want

242
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 6: to go there, you got another guy. I think it

243
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 6: was CD in the slot that's coming across the field.

244
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 6: He's open, like he's coming clear of the window. So

245
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 6: there are these opportunities and Dak is ready to throw

246
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 6: and then he pulls it down for whatever reason and

247
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 6: then ends up in pressure or sack. I don't remember

248
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 6: what happened on the at the end of the play,

249
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 6: but it wasn't a good turnout and it was.

250
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 4: A situation where he had to play. And that's what

251
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 4: I think was to me.

252
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 6: That's what I take from this game is that as

253
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 6: though as as much as we want to say the

254
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 6: offensive line didn't hold up, Dak I think has to

255
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 6: take just as much accountability on that because I think

256
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 6: he was just he was just.

257
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 4: A little bit not willing to pull the truckle.

258
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,439
Speaker 5: Well, dad comes into the mental game of things. When

259
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 5: you go into a game knowing what who is protecting you,

260
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 5: it's gonna change the way you're thinking because now that's

261
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 5: an added thing that you're trying to take account for. Like,

262
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 5: it's very different. I'm trying to find a scenario. It's

263
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 5: like someone that let's say, someone that cuts my hair

264
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 5: all the time, I'm gonna go in like is if

265
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 5: I'm not even gonna say anything worry about it might

266
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,719
Speaker 5: be on my phone as opposed to someone that's new

267
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 5: cutting my hair, I'm like freaking out and just like

268
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 5: looking over my shoulder the whole time. So I think,

269
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 5: and I'm not to put I don't. I hate putting

270
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 5: all of the blame on somebody.

271
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 8: But.

272
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 5: I think because if you look at everything, that's really

273
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 5: the only change that has happened.

274
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 7: You still have the same weapons. On offense.

275
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 5: You have been playing really well the past few weeks,

276
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 5: and you've been clicking. You've been accustomed to Mike McCarthy's

277
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 5: play calling. But then as soon as some element changes

278
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 5: in the online and.

279
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 7: He's played with that before. But I don't know. I'm

280
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 7: just trying to find.

281
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 5: The reason as to why, because there's no injuries there

282
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 5: on him. He's still the same dick as he's been.

283
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,959
Speaker 5: There's nothing else that has happened to be big.

284
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: They run a double screen. They ran a double screen

285
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 2: on the play, and you can see after the play,

286
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 2: Dak is pissed and Lamb is pissed. They run a

287
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,719
Speaker 2: double screen. Dak makes the decision to throw it to

288
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 2: the left with three blockers when he's got four blockers.

289
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 4: And he said after the game, yeah, probably should have

290
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 4: gone out. Yeah.

291
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 2: See, And that's the thing about it when you have

292
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 2: it and you have a game where you're kind of

293
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 2: struggling with the protection. Screen's a good play. Screen's a

294
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 2: good play, especially when you get upfield. But what happens.

295
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 2: Give the Dolphins some credit. Dolphins take they take Chubb

296
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: and van Inkle and they put him watch and they

297
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 2: kind of put them off the ball. So they're like,

298
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: they're like, anticipate, you're probably gonna run either slant or screen.

299
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 2: So they're they're they're they're playing the defense. Like so

300
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: maybe it's something you check out of. Maybe you're thinking, like, Okay,

301
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 2: I can't get my blocker out there. You know, I

302
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,439
Speaker 2: can't get a doga out there on Chubb.

303
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 4: You know I can't.

304
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 2: So I've gotten to think of something. But you know,

305
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 2: like I say, three blockers one side, four blockers the other,

306
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 2: and you have a clear advantage, but you choose the

307
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 2: three blocker side. Those are the kinds of things Attention

308
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 2: to detailing the game will get you hurt.

309
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 4: I'll tell you this too.

310
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 6: You say nothing had change, and so you're right from

311
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 6: the standpoint of the personnel. But I do think part

312
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 6: of what I saw, at least my opinion, is he

313
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 6: was playing a defensive coordinator that clearly Dak has a

314
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 6: lot of respect for. You talked about it after the game.

315
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 6: They asked him about the question about CD and not

316
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 6: having CD, and CD said, in the locker room he

317
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 6: thought it was He agreed with a reporter that it

318
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 6: was kind of strange that in the second and third

319
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 6: quarter he was not used as much, and they asked

320
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 6: Dak about that, and Deck says, I mean, strange is

321
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 6: a fair word, I guess, he said, but you got

322
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 6: to remember that we're playing a defensive coordinator that's very,

323
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 6: very seasoned, and he has ways of not letting you

324
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 6: continue to do the things that you were getting success with.

325
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 6: And so yeah, he said he could fall. He had

326
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 6: a way of kind of fogging things up. And it

327
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 6: makes me wonder if again, you take a player or

328
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 6: two where he shows you something that kind of jarji

329
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 6: and does that make you a little more tentative? Now,

330
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 6: does that make you now think a little bit more

331
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 6: about those throws before you make them? And that could

332
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 6: be what we were seeing. And I think there are

333
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 6: that could be a part of this. And then the

334
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 6: way they play defense too. They have one of those

335
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 6: kind of defenses that they have a lot of guys, a.

336
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 4: Lot of scrimmage.

337
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 6: You don't know in any given play who's coming, if

338
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 6: all of them are coming, if none of them are coming, right,

339
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 6: And I think that can also cause you to be

340
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 6: a little more tentative. So I think the difference was

341
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 6: not necessarily in the personnel he didn't have as much.

342
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 6: I think it was more about who he was playing

343
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 6: and the way they play.

344
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 5: Maybe the fumble with Hunter Lipke that early in the game,

345
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 5: that that could have a role in his mental aspect

346
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 5: of thing of now he's trying to be a little

347
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 5: more hesitant and now trying to risk throwing an interception

348
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 5: or something else.

349
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 3: I wouldn't say that on that particular play because they

350
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 3: bounced back from that, and like you said, yeah, got

351
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 3: the CD lamb the big game, your ceed lamb touchdown,

352
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 3: and then you know you take the lead and at

353
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 3: that point, your defense because keep in mind, even your

354
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 3: defense responded to that, Yeah they gave up the fifty

355
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 3: yard fifty yard or on third down to waddle with

356
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 3: the you know, backs against the wall for the Dolphins,

357
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 3: and you hate that, but they didn't break, they fought.

358
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 3: They kept it to a fifty seven yard field goal

359
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 3: by Sanders. So your defense was holding, not the penalty wise,

360
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 3: but your defense was doing what they needed to do.

361
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 3: And as an offense, all you needed to do was

362
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 3: build on that ced Lamb touchdown and then start to

363
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 3: create distance. And then now you put them into the

364
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 3: blueprint that you want them into, which you want them

365
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 3: to pass the ball, because you've also shown that you

366
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 3: were doing well in the run defense right coming off

367
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 3: of a horrible game in Buffalo, you did well in

368
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 3: containing Moster in a chain and Jeff Wilson. So all

369
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 3: the Cowboys offense had to do was continue to find

370
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 3: ways to put up points. But when you go, they

371
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 3: had that sequence where it was like third consecutive punts. Yeah,

372
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 3: your defense is bending, not breaking. So it's field goal

373
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 3: for the Dolphins, field goal for the Dolphins. Field goal

374
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 3: for the Dolphins. But the whole time that's happening, you're

375
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 3: looking at your offense not put up points. So it's like, Okay,

376
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 3: punt punt Aubrey, punt, punt, punt Aubrey, and you're like,

377
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 3: you're not going to win this type of a game

378
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 3: against this offense, because sooner or later this offense is

379
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 3: going to do what they did with that no huddle,

380
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 3: and it was just lethal, the no huddle at the

381
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 3: back end of the first half, the hurry up at

382
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 3: the back end of the game for that game winning drive.

383
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 3: Your defense is tired. You got to help them out

384
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 3: and compliment them. So kudos to the defense. I mean,

385
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 3: obviously they did break eventually, but if the complimentary football

386
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 3: was there and that offense had put up points, then

387
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 3: the Cowboys win this game.

388
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 2: I just didn't feel like that really that they did

389
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 2: anything defensively different. You know, to me that the drastic

390
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 2: move to try and take LANMD out of this game

391
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 2: would have been to walk Ramsey over there. I just

392
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 2: kind of felt like there were a couple of different

393
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 2: times where they passed him through zones, buzz linebackers in

394
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 2: front of him, you know. But to me, it was

395
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: really about Howard Ramsey and who those guys covering him.

396
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 2: You know, you didn't see stuff really on the back

397
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 2: end or or where. Like I said, my answer to

398
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 2: that was like, if I'm thinking Lambs killing me, I'm thinking, God,

399
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: I've got to do something different. I think that I

400
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 2: think the blitzing of the linebackers bothered Dac in this game.

401
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 2: I do. I think that that that that you know,

402
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 2: like you said, being around the line when you know

403
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 2: when when are they going to blitz? And on the

404
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 2: flip side of that, Dallas didn't blitz to enough. That's

405
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 2: the problem when you look at that, when you look

406
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 2: at his metrics when he was facing pressure or blitzes,

407
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 2: it's like two of five, you know, and they but

408
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 2: the no blitz was and that's to me, Dallas's m

409
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 2: is pressure and pressure and to me, I I kind

410
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,919
Speaker 2: of feel like they missed an opportunity with that because

411
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 2: you could have I think there were times where when

412
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 2: he faced that pressure you could see he was clearly

413
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 2: not interested in standing there and throwing the football.

414
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 3: And two also had some under pressure and not pressured

415
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 3: throws that were just bad. It was just like, oh

416
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 3: that was a bad throw. That throw sailed who was

417
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,959
Speaker 3: he throwing to? Like no man was in the vicinity.

418
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 3: He was just bad throws and that was not under pressure.

419
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 3: And then to Bryan's point, when you look at the

420
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 3: how things flipped. Okay, so we talked about how Dak

421
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 3: Prescott was pressured almost fifty percent of his dropbacks. Two

422
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 3: was pressured only twenty five percent of his drawbacks, so

423
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 3: three quarters of the time he was back there comfortably operating.

424
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: You can't have that.

425
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 4: You got to get back there now with those weapons. Yeah,

426
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,360
Speaker 4: you got to like that. We talked about it got

427
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 4: time to run, like that's going to be a problem.

428
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 2: If Dallas was going to win on the defensive side

429
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 2: of the ball, it was going to be taking advantage

430
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 2: of that offensive line. Yeah, you know, and that there

431
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: were times they did, and I just don't feel like

432
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 2: there was enough enough of getting after Tua.

433
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 8: You know.

434
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 2: And I think that I think Dan and em got

435
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: a little nervous about the big play ability of these receivers,

436
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 2: and I could clearly understand it. Covering Wattle is not easy,

437
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 2: you know, and especially if safeties. You know, Wilson a

438
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 2: couple of times in the game, you know you're wondering

439
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 2: nearing covered two and you're like, bro, you're supposed to

440
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 2: help here. You know, what are you looking at? Inside?

441
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 2: There's nothing there for you, you know. So Hooker, those

442
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 2: guys they try their best, but you know, when you

443
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 2: when you're dealing with speed, and all that. Sometimes you

444
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 2: just get mesmerized. I think Dallas got a little bit

445
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 2: that in the secondary yesterday.

446
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 6: All right, we're gonna take our first break and come back.

447
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 6: We will talk about the rushing offense, Tony Pollard, Hunter Lipke,

448
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 6: We'll talk about all that and what the Cowboys were

449
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 6: trying to do and maybe how effective it was or

450
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,360
Speaker 6: was not. We'll talk about that when we come ba Dallas,

451
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 6: Cowboys dot Com Radio.

452
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 9: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

453
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 9: Cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big cat repellent he bought

454
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 9: online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to be

455
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 9: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per howa.

456
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 9: But the good news is Todd has AT and T

457
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 9: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

458
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 9: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

459
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,239
Speaker 9: toss the backpack with the beef stew At and T

460
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 9: five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated.

461
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,159
Speaker 10: Five G requires compatible planning device. Five G may not

462
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 10: be available in your area. See att dot com slash

463
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 10: five G for you for details.

464
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 11: Cowboys fans, after that move, we've just coined the term

465
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 11: rowdy replay.

466
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:16,119

Speaker 6: and this segment is brought to you by blockchain dot com.

510
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 6: All right, let's talk about the running game. You've got

511
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 6: Tony Pollott yesterday, sorry Sunday, he has twelve carries for

512
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 6: thirty eight yards, a three point two average. The team

513
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 6: overall had twenty five carries for ninety seven yard or

514
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 6: three point nine average. I have a big picture question

515
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 6: for you guys. Is this rushing attack good enough for

516
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 6: the Cowboys to get to where they want to be.

517
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 3: It can be not playing the way it did on Sunday, obviously,

518
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 3: but we talked about prior to Sunday. We talked about

519
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 3: how things had started to come together for the rushing

520
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 3: attack for the Cowboys.

521
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 4: Now, a large, large.

522
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 3: Part of that was based on the continuity of the

523
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 3: offensive line in the health when you had Tyren Smith

524
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:04,119
Speaker 3: plays seven consecutive games, that helps. But when you look

525
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 3: at what happened on Sunday, you know that we talked.

526
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 3: We were talking about it during the break, we were

527
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 3: talking about it after, you know, on the flight home,

528
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 3: we were talking about it after it happened. Tony Pollard

529
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 3: has to get in on that. Uh that that touch

530
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 3: on the one yard line. You can't get turned around

531
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 3: like that, especially by defensive back like you just you can't.

532
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 3: You got to get that in and then what happens

533
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 3: after that? You get the the botched handoff the hunter

534
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 3: lift key, which goes to a rushing attack issue as well.

535
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 3: And then we know that ric o'dowdle is battling that

536
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: the ankle injury, but we've also seen him perform admirably

537
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,959
Speaker 3: despite the ankle injury. So they only have two touches

538
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 3: for total yards, Like where was Rico dawdle on the ground?

539
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 3: So if that is what they present on the road

540
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 3: and the playoffs, the d answer is absolutely not. If

541
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,959
Speaker 3: the trajectory that we saw them on even though they

542
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 3: got walked by the Buffalo Bills, but you'd liked what

543
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 3: you saw from Tony Pollard and those games preceding that

544
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 3: as well. If that's the version of the tech and

545
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 3: the offensive land that they take on the road, they

546
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 3: do have a chance in the playoffs.

547
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 7: Uh yeah, I think they've improved, that's one thing.

548
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 5: But is it depends what kind of offense are you playing,

549
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 5: what kind of offense are you getting? Are you getting

550
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 5: the offense that plays at AT and T Stadium, because

551
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 5: in those scenarios, you barely even need to run the ball,

552
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 5: like they have so many explosive plays in the passing

553
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 5: game that sometimes the run becomes a little bit secondary,

554
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 5: like you don't really think about it because you just

555
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 5: don't really need it.

556
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 7: They've just playing so well in the air.

557
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 5: But we know that's not always the case, especially when

558
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 5: you're gonna have to play away from home. That kind

559
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 5: of disappears at times, and sometimes the one thing that

560
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 5: you can rely on or in the past, not this year,

561
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 5: but we know how essential and how important the running

562
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 5: game can be for your offense. So right now as

563
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 5: it is, I think you've had plenty of time this

564
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 5: season to kind of get a better running game going,

565
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 5: and it hasn't been the case. And I think that, sadly,

566
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 5: it's gonna bite them in the butt at some point.

567
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 5: I don't want to say that, but once they start

568
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 5: playing away from AT and D Stadium, I think, and we've.

569
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 7: Seen it already.

570
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 5: We've seen games where you wish you could have relied more,

571
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 5: like even in Buffalo, you wish they would have rent

572
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 5: the ball so much more, And at times it was

573
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 5: working and then it just they kind of went away

574
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 5: from it. So right now I think they've been okay,

575
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 5: But it's just you're gonna need I love complimentary football,

576
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 5: and you're not always gonna be able to throw the

577
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 5: ball in the air pass it what happens in a

578
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 5: game where they do take out a CD lamp and again,

579
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 5: so it's those scenarios where I do find some concern

580
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 5: and it back to the O line health. I always

581
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 5: bring it back to the health of the line and

582
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 5: how that affects not only Dak Prescott but also the

583
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 5: running game. I think that has a lot to do

584
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 5: with kind of the issues they've had this year.

585
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 2: I think Mike told you what he thought about the

586
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 2: running game when he started the second half. After the

587
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 2: Dolphins go three and out and you get the ball

588
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 2: backed up and he hands the ball to Pollard one time,

589
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 2: they get one yard and then they throw the ball

590
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 2: two other times after that, you know, and then you

591
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 2: get a blitz and there might be a hot question

592
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 2: there and stuff like that, but they had no confidence

593
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 2: coming off the goal line. He said he had a

594
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 2: poor plan when they were backed up, you know, and

595
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 2: they were doing with that. So yeah, it was encouraging

596
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 2: against Buffalo, not so encouraging against the Dolphins. And I

597
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,880
Speaker 2: think there's a lot of things that happened for those

598
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 2: two quarters. I think the play Carlo lost his way.

599
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 2: I think the line lost their way. I think the

600
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 2: quarterback lost his way. I think the running game, whatever

601
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 2: exists it might had lost its way. They just did

602
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 2: not have it. They did not have the When their

603
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 2: running game works, it's about rhythm, it's about they kind

604
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 2: of get it going and it supplements some of the

605
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 2: other things they do it. They do it with jet sweeps,

606
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 2: they do it with crack tosses, they do it. You know,

607
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 2: we just didn't see that. You know, there's some creativity

608
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 2: to the running game, and they can get it, they

609
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 2: can get it working. But you know, in this football game,

610
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 2: it was just a non factor at all. And no, absolutely,

611
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 2: they cannot win a single playoff game, much less a

612
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 2: regular season game if they run the football like this.

613
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's interesting because Brian, I was going to point

614
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 6: to the playoff thought, this is where you were going.

615
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 6: You said, there's one play that tells you that told

616
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 6: you that. But that fourth quarter, first in goal and

617
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 6: they decided they're going to back them to throw the

618
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 6: ball and here you go sack. And I'm like, when

619
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 6: they first got first to goal at the one, I

620
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 6: was like, okay, here we go.

621
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 4: You pound the ball in. There's no reason not to write.

622
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 2: Maybe the lipkey, maybe the lip key fumble freaked them

623
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 2: out in that maybe, but take Yeah, they tried to run. Yeah,

624
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 2: they tried to run. It's funny, could you say that?

625
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 2: Because everybody it's like a hard play action, right, and

626
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 2: you know, and and a dog is wrong, he doesn't

627
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 2: block out and so now you get this, you get

628
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 2: the you get the sack. But they're trying to Yeah,

629
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 2: they're getting they're playing cute football. They're gonna try and

630
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 2: to run the tight ends across and the other way

631
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 2: and just flip it to them in the corner.

632
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 4: And to me, that's where I look at it.

633
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 6: And I was watching this game, the game last night

634
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 6: San Francisco and Baltimore, and it what what is very

635
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 6: apparent to me? And I think right now those two

636
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 6: teams are probably the two best teams in the league.

637
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 6: I think you can arguably throw another team in there,

638
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 6: but I think they've consistently tried here been really good.

639
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 4: We've been talking about the Rams, man, they're.

640
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 2: Kind of I keep Rams are my hope to go

641
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 2: beat Philadelpia and they go to San francisc take Francisco.

642
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 2: If Dallas is going to be the fifth seed, I've

643
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 2: talked to people. My dream is for the Rams to

644
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 2: be the seventh seed and just go wreck shop a

645
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 2: couple of times and take people out along the way.

646
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 3: The Rams can absolutely smoke Philadelphia.

647
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely can so, so I think I think that

648
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 6: that's the I was watching that game I side, I

649
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 6: was like, the difference between those two teams and every

650
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 6: other team in the league to some degree is the

651
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 6: style of football they play is extremely physical. They line

652
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 6: up in those situations and say we're better than you.

653
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 6: We're going right over you, and we're gonna score right.

654
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 6: And that's the part where I think, when you have

655
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 6: to do it the cute way, to me, that says

656
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 6: something about what you think about your ability to just

657
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 6: line up and be able to physically impose your will

658
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 6: on another team.

659
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 4: And I think that's the difference.

660
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 6: And that's where I was like, it made me start

661
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 6: to question how good I think this running game really is.

662
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 6: I can't think of a game this year where the

663
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 6: Cowboys have said we're gonna run, We're gonna rely on

664
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 6: our running game. Happened, and by the way, there've been

665
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 6: some games where they probably should have done that, but

666
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 6: they haven't. And that's where I wonder, is this running

667
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 6: game even capable of being that for them in a

668
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 6: game where they're gonna need it, because that's gonna happen

669
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 6: if you're on the road in the NFC in the playoffs.

670
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 2: I think the head coach talked about it in the

671
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 2: offseason of wanting to try and be like that and

672
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 2: then he realized he couldn't, and then he had to adapt.

673
00:30:58,760 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 5: It.

674
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 4: Is that because of the offensive line, are the running

675
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 4: backs or both?

676
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 2: I think there was I think the injuries along the

677
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 2: way have been upon now they played seven straight games

678
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 2: where they've had continuity and they've been okay. But man,

679
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 2: I think this offense is really built to throw the

680
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 2: football myself, especially when the offensive line's healthy with Lamb

681
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 2: and you know Ferguson, those guys Cooks. They're built to

682
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 2: throw the ball. And I think McCarthy realized the better

683
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 2: chance of moving the ball and scoring points throwing it

684
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 2: than he does run in it.

685
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 3: I think my biggest problem with the rushing attack is

686
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 3: kind of exactly what you're alluding to, Derek, in that

687
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 3: it's the goal to go packages. So that sequence of

688
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 3: Pollard getting turned around and then lip Key fumbling, that's

689
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 3: one and a half yurs to go. If you go

690
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 3: back and look at the combined statistic of how well

691
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 3: or not well the Cowboys have done with Gold to Go,

692
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 3: that's been kind of that their biggest achilles heel, because

693
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 3: first it was red zone. Oh, they can't score in

694
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 3: the red zone. So then they shrunk in and say, okay,

695
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 3: well we can scor in the red zone as long

696
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 3: because it's not goal to go. So then when it

697
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 3: became gold to gold, they kept running into like a

698
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 3: brick wall as far as you hand it off the

699
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 3: rico and it's probably it's stopped right there the one

700
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 3: you hand it off to Tony, stop right there at

701
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 3: the one. And now you're thinking, okay, you're going to Dolphins,

702
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 3: and you say third and short on this opening drive

703
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 3: handed the lip Key conversion. Yeah, third and short handed

704
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:19,479
Speaker 3: the lip Key conversion. You're like, they got it, they

705
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 3: got it.

706
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 2: They figured out exactly nobody had a problem handed the

707
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 2: fall go right right nobody did because like, okay, then

708
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 2: we all went damn.

709
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 4: And then it becomes a mental thing from the coaches.

710
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 3: They're like, okay, well now when you get gold to

711
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 3: go uh, it's well, we're not going to handle the

712
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 3: lip key because we're shot right, We're not going back

713
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 3: to that. But then Pollard, well, what happened the last

714
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 3: time we get hit the ball? He got turned around,

715
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 3: so you dropped back to Lamb and then he is

716
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 3: out of bounds. But then, thankfully on that particular drive,

717
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 3: coach was able to come up with it. But I

718
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 3: think it's the goal to goal package that's their biggest

719
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 3: achilles hell. And if you can't punch it in from

720
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 3: one to two yards out with your running backs, that's

721
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 3: that's a problem.

722
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 4: That's where it really could become a problem.

723
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 5: Also, the defenses who opposing teams are going to be

724
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 5: using more of the resources on the passing game and

725
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 5: trying to protect and cover the receivers. I don't think

726
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 5: right now you've put anything on film that scares anybody

727
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 5: as far as they're running attack at all whatsoever. So

728
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 5: going into whoever you're facing, they're gonna.

729
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 7: Just focus.

730
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 9: Off.

731
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but yeah, and I agree with you, Derek.

732
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 5: It's clearly a passing offense. That's what it's become now.

733
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 7: But it does, it does it.

734
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 5: It's just very unfortunate because you do not want to

735
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 5: become a one dimensional team and just have to always

736
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 5: rely on the passing game because there will be, and

737
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 5: we've seen it, situations where you're gonna have to run

738
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 5: the ball and if you ain't scary anybody, if you're

739
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 5: not breaking blocks and finding the holes and kind of

740
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 5: scaping it going for it, I mean, uh, that's gonna

741
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 5: be definitely a problem.

742
00:33:58,240 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 7: What is Zeke doing.

743
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 6: He's still employed, so we can't talk about We would

744
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 6: just say that he is on a team that's not

745
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 6: going to be in the playoffs, but he's asked some opportunities.

746
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 2: Like your team, you got to win this weekend, right,

747
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 2: he is keep all.

748
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 4: Right, let's take our final break, let's come back. I

749
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 4: want to flip over the defensive side of the ball.

750
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 6: And Jerry said something very interesting this morning on one

751
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 6: O five Dowut Through the Fan with Sean and r

752
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 6: j Uh. He mentioned a little bit about Micah and

753
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 6: maybe why Micah is not getting those holding calls. That

754
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 6: was an interesting comment. We'll talk about them. Come back

755
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:34,959
Speaker 6: this Dallas Cowboys dot com Radio.

756
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 9: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

757
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 9: cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

758
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 9: online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be

759
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 9: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

760
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 9: But the good news is Todd has AT and T

761
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 9: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

762
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 9: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

763
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 9: toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

764
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 9: T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated.

765
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 10: Five G requires compatable plan and device five G may

Speaker 6: at the Star. Let's talk a little bit about Michael Parsons.

808
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:03,720
Speaker 4: This morning.

809
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 6: Jerry was on one on five out three of the

810
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,919
Speaker 6: Fan and he mentioned that he was asked about why

811
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 6: maybe Micah is not getting those holding calls. I think

812
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 6: it's been now thirty eight I want to say thirty

813
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 6: eight quarters since the last time they had a holding call.

814
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:18,760
Speaker 4: I run that I've done this numbers.

815
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 2: How many how many holding calls you think the Cowboys

816
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,879
Speaker 2: is a unit have drawn this year?

817
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,280
Speaker 12: It's got to be single digits.

818
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's gonna say it's nine over ten?

819
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 5: Is it?

820
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 2: Sixteen?

821
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:31,400
Speaker 4: Sixteen?

822
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 2: Sixteen? But they've but but seven. Didn't have a holding

823
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 2: call in this game? Right, So make that make that

824
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 2: they played fifteen games Thomas smith Hill No, no, no, no,

825
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 2: the defense he didn't have one, didn't draw in this game, right,

826
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 2: didn't have when this ya. Eight of their fifteen games

827
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 2: have gone without a holding call. Half their games, half

828
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 2: their games, more than half their games have gone without

829
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 2: a holding.

830
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,800
Speaker 4: Call, which is amazing for a team to get this

831
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 4: much fresh as they do.

832
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 2: That's exactly right, that's exactly right. How can you be

833
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 2: one of them, one of the one of the most

834
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 2: pressure teams in the National Football League most Yeah, and

835
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 2: not draw more holding calls sixteen total for the year.

836
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 2: That's amazing to me.

837
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,880
Speaker 6: The interesting thing was Jerry said on the on the

838
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 6: air this morning, which I'd never really heard someone from

839
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 6: from a team or league articulate this, But basically what

840
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 6: he said was the rest essentially won't call holding if

841
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,240
Speaker 6: they don't think the player could have gotten to the quarterback.

842
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 6: And and Jerry's argument is that may work for the

843
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 6: vast majority of the players in the league. The problem

844
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 6: is Micah is different. Michael Micah is special. Micah has

845
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 6: a burst and a speed and speed that can close

846
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 6: so quickly that it's hard to make that determination if

847
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 6: he's three yards from the quarterback to say well, he

848
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 6: couldn't have gotten there if he was in hell, when fact.

849
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 4: Is he's so fast that he probably could have.

850
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 6: Gotten there, and and and they're trying to legislate it

851
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 6: based upon how they're legislating everybody else, but it just

852
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 6: may not work for Michael.

853
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't understand how, and we sound like

854
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 2: we're bitching about it, you know, really, but I don't

855
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 2: know how you can watch games and like arms around

856
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 2: his neck, you know, arm around his waist? How I

857
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 2: mean hands inside or hands outside the frame?

858
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 4: I get it.

859
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 2: Hell, they had a damn Zach Martin got his helmet

860
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 2: knocked off and was pass blocking in this game and

861
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 2: they didn't call it, you know, I mean literally, he's like,

862
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 2: whoa bro? I mean, you know, Watkins Wilkins just knocks

863
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 2: his helmet off and he's pass blocking, still in the play,

864
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,239
Speaker 2: and they don't call it. You're like, now, okay, how

865
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 2: do you not see that? But the thing I understand,

866
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 2: hands inside that's a hard hard call. But hooking a guy,

867
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 2: you know, grabbing him around the neck. Rodeo maneuvers and

868
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 2: you don't call it. I don't that part. I don't understand.

869
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 2: I don't know how the officials each week when they

870
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 2: get their tape and you miss this one, you miss

871
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 2: this one. It's like every week they probably see Michael

872
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:56,400
Speaker 2: Parsons go damn, he gets held a lot.

873
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 5: You know.

874
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 2: That would be my impression if I was one of

875
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 2: these officials, I'd be going, gosh, dang, they missed a

876
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 2: lot of these holding calls in this guy, you know,

877
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 2: and you're kind of looking for that, you know, but

878
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:09,720
Speaker 2: you're right. His closes as fast as he closes because

879
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 2: that roughing the passer penalty. As I told you guys

880
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 2: in the break, that was super close. I mean, it

881
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 2: was so explosive. When you stop the tape, ball's gone

882
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 2: and he is literally his foot is right behind toua

883
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,839
Speaker 2: as that ball is out of that out of his hand.

884
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 4: That's and usually there's grace for that kind of situation.

885
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 6: Again, as long as you're not driving the guy into

886
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 6: the ground or something like that, there's grace that there's a.

887
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 4: Little period when he gets rid of the ball. That's

888
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 4: why I was like, I don't know, I don't know,

889
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 4: Like I.

890
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 2: Said postgame, they said, he tried, he was trying to

891
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 2: punish the quarterback.

892
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 4: I didn't get that.

893
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 2: He pushed him. Yeah, what's what's that? Yeah, he's not

894
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 2: gonna this poor guy is not going to get calls.

895
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 2: He's just not And it's a it's a I don't

896
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 2: know how these officials on a weekly basis review the

897
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 2: game tape and don't see that.

898
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 4: Well.

899
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 3: I love what Michael said because what Jerry is saying

900
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 3: today to the fan echoed what Michaeh said one two

901
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,400
Speaker 3: weeks ago, I believe in an interview with the media

902
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 3: about the lack of holding calls, and he said, Michael

903
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 3: did that the officials are telling him the same thing

904
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 3: that Jerry just said, Well, you weren't going to get

905
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 3: to the quarterback, and Michael said, this was a quote,

906
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 3: he said, you couldn't get to the quarterback.

907
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 4: Don't tell me what I can't do.

908
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 3: I can get to that quarterback, or maybe someone else

909
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 3: can't get to the quarterback. But he's like, I can

910
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 3: get to the quarterback, so let me do my job

911
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,879
Speaker 3: and you do your job, whichot which kind of goes

912
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 3: to my next thing. It also is these officials are

913
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 3: human and I've said this to several colleagues as well.

914
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 3: And we love Michael to death, and you know, his

915
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,800
Speaker 3: podcast is enjoyable and he's always enjoyable with the Q

916
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 3: and a's, But the officials are listening. They're listening when

917
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,760
Speaker 3: every week he gets on the mic and we understand

918
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,720
Speaker 3: his frustration and it's justified. It is right, his cause

919
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 3: is proper right. But he has to let the others.

920
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 3: Stephen Jones on the competition committee, let him fight that battle.

921
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 3: Jerry Jones fight the battle. The front offic is, Mike McCarthy,

922
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 3: the coaching staff fight the battle. I think now, because

923
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 3: it's so egregious, the lack of holding calls, I'm starting

924
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,879
Speaker 3: to wonder if it's the human element coming in where

925
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 3: these officials are hearing what Michael Parks isn't saying and

926
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 3: being like, oh okay.

927
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:15,479
Speaker 7: I don't know if.

928
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 5: So you cannot silence people like oh no, and I'm

929
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,760
Speaker 5: not trying. I'm saying and I get it. Like sometimes

930
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 5: Mike goes on a rant and he'll get on Twitter

931
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 5: and say all kinds of things and maybe you'll.

932
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,240
Speaker 7: Be like, hey, maybe you don't.

933
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 3: Exactly that He's right.

934
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:35,360
Speaker 5: Let him just because anybody, anybody that was in that

935
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 5: position and on the field and having to deal with

936
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 5: that on a constant basis and feeling like, damn, I

937
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,920
Speaker 5: cannot catch a break, Like it's constantly happening the same thing.

938
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 5: You're gonna be mad and it's okay to let it

939
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,320
Speaker 5: and I'm tired, Like what gets me frustrated is this

940
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,480
Speaker 5: whole thing, Like, quit blaming it on.

941
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 7: The rests deal with it. That's just what it is.

942
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 5: Well, no, it doesn't have to be that, like it's not.

943
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 5: You're not gonna get any change if you don't speak up.

944
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 5: So speak up and keep talking about it.

945
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,320
Speaker 3: And to that, to that RTP call, that rough and

946
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 3: the passer call, and I said this in the press box,

947
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 3: the reaction that Micah had it wasn't because of that

948
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 3: RTP call in and of itself.

949
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 4: Micah is fed up.

950
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,879
Speaker 3: And then the optics of the fact that you won't

951
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 3: call them for holding me, but you called me for

952
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 3: that tiki tag RTP in a game that's close on

953
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 3: the road, So all of it's kind of boiling over.

954
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 3: And because we've seen Michael react and be upset at

955
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 3: ref's but he exploded to the point he had to

956
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 3: be pulled back by a teammate to potentially avoid you know, yeah,

957
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 3: to avoid potentially accidentally making contact with the ref and

958
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,040
Speaker 3: then you get fined and ejected and might maybe suspended.

959
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:42,480
Speaker 4: So it's at that point.

960
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 3: And because it's at that point and the whole world

961
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,239
Speaker 3: is watching now, because these types of reactions are non calls,

962
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 3: are on film, something has to be done. So my

963
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 3: thing with Mike is I'm not saying, you know, silent,

964
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 3: because he his his cause is right. We're sitting here

965
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 3: beating the drum for it. Everybody's beating the drum.

966
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:00,359
Speaker 2: At this point.

967
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 3: We've heard you say it, we get it, all of

968
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 3: that's on tape. But to do it weekly now, I'm

969
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 3: starting to wonder. This is just me starting to wonder.

970
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 3: I'm not making accusations, but I am allowed to wonder.

971
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 3: I'm starting to wonder if these officials, who are human beings,

972
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,359
Speaker 3: who are emotional people, are starting to see this and say, oh, well,

973
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 3: if you're saying we can't do our job, well then

974
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 3: maybe we don't see this hold. So I'm saying it,

975
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,320
Speaker 3: you can't convince me one thing doesn't play unto the

976
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:24,319
Speaker 3: other thing, is what I'm saying.

977
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 2: Well, that crew, that particular crew their number one call

978
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 2: that they've made all year has been offensive holding. That's

979
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,959
Speaker 2: their number one and the one I mean they missed

980
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 2: with Micah, but the one that Cotton had on Clark

981
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 2: that ended the game. Basically, that needs to be called.

982
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 2: And that's Sean Hockley not following the play, not seeing

983
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 2: and that's the side judge not seeing the play as well.

984
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,879
Speaker 2: They missed a bad holding call right there that could

985
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 2: have backed the Dolphins up and maybe given you a chance.

986
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 2: I know, the way their field goal kicker is making

987
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 2: field goals, it it was probably a point, but at

988
00:44:56,760 --> 00:45:00,360
Speaker 2: least you've got to call the game that way. You know,

989
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,239
Speaker 2: if you see a guy getting tackled and when the

990
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 2: ball going right at him and then like a defender

991
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 2: not being able to make a tackle because he was

992
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,479
Speaker 2: getting tackled, that's you got a call right.

993
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 6: There, honestly, and I hear what you're Sam Patrick, and

994
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 6: I think in a lot of instances that makes sense.

995
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,359
Speaker 6: The reason why that would I wouldn't go that far

996
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 6: is because I look at the rest and I think,

997
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 6: first of all, as a part of their livelihood, they

998
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 6: are judged and graded based upon getting the calls right

999
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 6: or wrong. I don't think they will risk their grades

1000
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 6: being lower just to prove a point to a guy.

1001
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, I personally don't think so,

1002
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 6: because that affects by the way, that affects your ability

1003
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 6: to get other games and more preferable games. It affects

1004
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 6: your ability to be able to playoff, Super Bowl, all

1005
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:40,320
Speaker 6: that kind of stuff. Are you willing to give that

1006
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 6: up just to make a point to a guy?

1007
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:42,320
Speaker 4: I don't think so.

1008
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,800
Speaker 6: I think it's one of those things where, honestly, I

1009
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 6: think it's a judgment call, and I think their judgment

1010
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 6: is hwed by the fact that they don't think he

1011
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 6: can get there, when quite frankly, he could get there.

1012
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 4: And that's the difference.

1013
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 6: And I really believe that when it comes down to it,

1014
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 6: you know, I agree. I think they're humans, so they're

1015
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:00,719
Speaker 6: going to make mistakes. But I think a lot of

1016
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 6: this there's some gray area. It's even with the pass

1017
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 6: I mean with the roughing the passer call. They are told,

1018
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 6: they are told to refit in a way to where

1019
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 6: if there's any doubt that maybe it could have been

1020
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 6: rough in the passer.

1021
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 4: You got one.

1022
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 2: They got one. Yeah, that's how it worked. In that game.

1023
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 2: But I'll tell you what the league last night. They

1024
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 2: put Bill Vinovitch on that crew in that game last night.

1025
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 2: Bill Venovitch will let you kill each other in a game.

1026
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 3: And I know what.

1027
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,439
Speaker 2: I applaud Bill. Sign me up, give me every week

1028
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 2: of Bill Vinovich because he will let the players decide these.

1029
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 4: Doubt I love it. I love it. All right, we

1030
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 4: appreciate you, guys. Jones. We're back tomorrow. We're gonna jump

Speaker 4: into Lions talk about the Lion's office.

1032
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 6: This is going to be an interesting matchup because two

1033
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 6: things have to kind of come into play. They're at home,

1034
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 6: but they're playing a really good team. This is going

1035
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 6: to be an interesting one. We're gonna find out a

1036
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 6: lot of things about this team this weekend. We'll start
