Man, I don't know about y'all. 104 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: I mean this is this has become like they're raising 105 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: the bar each and every year for these schedule releases. 106 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 3: If you look around the NFL and all the teams, 107 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 3: the media departments that get involved to do, like, it's 108 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 3: very creative the process that they're going to. But the 109 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 3: Cowboys media department. 110 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 2: Is just spanking, man, that's what they do. That's like 111 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 2: everybody right now. 112 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 3: And man, I don't know, Like I went through it 113 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 3: the whole thing a couple of times. Man, it just 114 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 3: gets funnier and funnier every time. Man, what was your 115 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 3: reaction guys from the just the schedule release from the 116 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 3: media department. 117 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 4: When I'm looking at it first, the videos were funny 118 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 4: for the release and things, it was funny. 119 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 2: But when you're looking at. 120 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 4: The schedule, I think it's tough. I think it is 121 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 4: a tough schedule. And look, this is a first place schedule, 122 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 4: so you're going against all. 123 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 2: The first place teams and all the other divisions. 124 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 4: So I believe this team has their work cutout for 125 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 4: I mean, we'll go through what stretch we think is 126 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 4: hard and all that good stuff. It wrong, But just 127 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 4: a first glance at it, I mean, when you look 128 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 4: at it, Cleveland, you. 129 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 2: Know what they love to do, run it. 130 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 4: Chubb's coming back, what's the what's the what's the he's 131 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 4: coming back off of. 132 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 2: But he has done it before, He's had a crazy injury. 133 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 2: It came back even. 134 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 4: Stronger before you got Chubb, you got Cleveland coming at you, 135 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 4: I mean Baltimore those. 136 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 3: First three weeks, it's not easy. 137 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 4: You're going to get some defenses and you're going to 138 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 4: get some teams that love to run the football. So 139 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 4: I believe early on in this schedule it will be 140 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 4: a great test to see how Zimmer can get this 141 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 4: defense going in the right direction. Has he fixed those 142 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 4: problems when we talk about the run defense. But I 143 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 4: believe overall, it's an extremely tough schedule and that first chunk. 144 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 2: Of it should be a little difficult for the Cowboys. 145 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 3: Danny, Yeah, listen, first, just to start off with the video, listen, 146 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 3: I watched it and as I was watching it, I 147 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 3: was like, I'm kind of out of the loop on 148 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 3: like who these like celebrities and people are. So I 149 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 3: watched it knowing that I probably should know who they are, 150 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 3: and knowing that they are probably famous, saying, oh, that's 151 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 3: that's a pretty good catch, even though who half of 152 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: the people are. So it was very creative how they 153 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 3: did it. I can't imagine Jerry like sitting there as 154 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 3: I opened up my FaceTime with Jerry and Mike, I 155 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 3: could imagine. 156 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 2: I thought that was really cool. I thought that was yeah. Yeah. 157 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 2: Then they always do. 158 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 3: I mean even when they did it with Steve and 159 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 3: a they did a post malone like, they always find 160 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: a really creative way. And then also they always include Jerry. 161 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: Harry is always in there. 162 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 3: So that's why he's, you know, one of the best owners, 163 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 3: and the Cowboys always going to be so big because 164 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 3: he knows how to do it. Media department, Derrek Eagleton, 165 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 3: all of them. They did a really great job. I 166 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 3: agree with you on that one. My only thing is 167 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 3: you just know how the NFL is to where there 168 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 3: are teams that you expect to be really good based 169 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 3: off what. 170 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 2: They did the prior years. 171 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 3: And then they come out here and you like, hold on, 172 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 3: that's man, that's not them. I thought they were gonna 173 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 3: be really good and then they just so happened not 174 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 3: to play as well as they did the previous year. 175 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 3: And to me, I think that's probably the only thing 176 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 3: that may save us here because based off what you 177 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: just said with Cleveland, we know how they looked last year. 178 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 3: Another defense, Chubb, it's coming off of injury, so we 179 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 3: don't know how good it'll be, especially with that being 180 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 3: the first the first game of the season. The Saints, 181 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 3: you know, they don't have anything, so they're gonna run it. 182 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 3: They're gonna try to run it. You got the Baltimore 183 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 3: Ravens with Derrick Henry. You know he's gonna try to 184 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 3: run it. So we're gonna be tested really quick, and 185 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 3: we're gonna know, hey, did we fix the things that 186 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 3: we haven't been able to fix over the last few years. 187 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 3: We're being able to stop the run. With Mazzie Smith 188 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 3: in there saying he's gaining a little weight or or 189 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 3: is it some of the same old same boat. Hey man, 190 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 3: we're gonna we're gonna beat depending on Dak Dak Prescott 191 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 3: and Brandon Kills and Ceedee Lamb to get out there 192 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 3: and just put up a bunch of yards because we're 193 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 3: not able to stop stop the run. So we're gonna 194 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 3: learn a lot in those first three weeks. We'll learn 195 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 3: a lot. So when I saw the schedule, that's the 196 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 3: first thing I thought. BC was like, Man, we're gonna 197 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: figure out what Mike Zimmer got going on these first 198 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 3: the first couple of weeks gonna be a test of 199 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 3: the season, will be a test. And I really loved Uh. 200 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 3: I believe it was Patrick Walker that did the interview 201 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 3: with Mike Zimmer just talking about his play style and 202 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: in his scheme and how it's gonna scheme it up 203 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 3: and how it's gonna be much different from Dan Quinn. 204 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 3: And I think when you talk about him as a 205 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: legendary as a coach basically, Uh, one of the things 206 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 3: that I thought was very unique about what he said 207 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 3: was when he's come into situations as a head coach 208 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 3: or even as a coordinator, it's been because the defense 209 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 3: is horrible. In this situation, I'm coming in on the 210 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 3: defense that already has you know, has some success. How 211 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 3: do you build on that? But it's not gonna be 212 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 3: the same scheme. But even when you look at these 213 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 3: first couple of weeks and you talk about a Cleveland, 214 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 3: even the New Orleans States and a Baltimore Ravens. Boy, 215 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 3: those are that's like that's that button up your chin strap. 216 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 3: You already know what they're gonna come with. Especially when 217 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 3: I got down to Baltimore. Yeah, you know, you already know, 218 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 3: you already know that unless they do that Baltimore that 219 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 3: showed up in the playoff. 220 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: Game, I mean. 221 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 3: That would be like trading play is identity crisis for 222 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 3: Baltimore if they did that. But I think for me, 223 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 3: like going and obviously we're not gonna pick anything without 224 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 3: you know, without We're not. 225 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 2: Gonna let him get off. 226 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 3: We're not gonna let Bernie made off with penwhipless you 227 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 3: know how extra set of books. 228 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 2: Uh. 229 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: But but also you go to this book, I want 230 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 3: to bring out the you know he got to After that, 231 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 3: you get Detroit. You get Detroit, and then you get 232 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 3: a buy and then right after that San Francisco right behind. 233 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 4: If you look at that all the way up until 234 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 4: San Francisco, all those squads outside of New York, then 235 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 4: they're gonna try to run that rock New York and 236 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 4: maybe the same they're gonna run they got Pittsburgh. You 237 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 4: at Detroit, Baltimore, Cleveland, all these teams exactly. All these 238 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 4: teams are like, look, we ain't got the quarterback option 239 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 4: outside of outside of Baltimore. So we're gonna run the rock, 240 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 4: We're gonna run the right and we're gonna see exactly 241 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 4: what Zimmer and this defense can do. Can Mozzie Smith 242 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 4: have that bounce back here? 243 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: You know? 244 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 4: Do we have the three tech and the one tech 245 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 4: in there to solve these problems? Are linebackers gonna be 246 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 4: able to work like we think they're going to be 247 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 4: able to work? It's gonna be a great test these 248 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 4: first come And that's why I'm and that's why I'm 249 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 4: going with my question for you because I think even 250 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 4: before the draft, your your concern was linebackers. And post draft, 251 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 4: do you feel like you know the linebacker they got 252 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 4: from Notre Dame bringing in Kendricks and company and already 253 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 4: what we already have. Now that you look at the schedule, 254 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 4: you know what you're going to be coming up against, 255 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 4: especially that first quarter of the season. Did we get 256 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 4: better at linebacker to be able to take on some 257 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 4: of your concerns? 258 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: So you got better? You got better because you got 259 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 2: some guys. 260 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 3: I think last year, depth was a huge problems when 261 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 3: you have Marquise Bell stepping in to play the linebacker position. 262 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 3: So we got some guys, we have a veteran guy 263 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 3: and Kendricks that that you know can probably get those 264 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 3: guys lined up and ready to go. And you got 265 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 3: some young guys in there. But I think I think 266 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 3: you're you're better at the position. What words me still 267 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 3: is the defensive line. And I heard the defensive the 268 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 3: new defensive line coach say that Monzie Smith playing last 269 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 3: year was a lot of get up feel and he's 270 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: going to play more to the stress of being able 271 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 3: to read blocks and play in the blocks. I gotta 272 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 3: see that. I have to see it. But the thing 273 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 3: is we won't see it because he's not gonna be 274 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: there until training camp. So he's like, he's not going 275 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 3: to be able to work on any of that stuff, 276 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 3: and we're not going to see if he's better at 277 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 3: doing that than what dan Quinn had him doing, if 278 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 3: there was really truly a difference. 279 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 2: So where y'all like, were you confused. 280 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 3: At all about that about the Minsie Smith getting up 281 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 3: the field talk excited? 282 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 4: I didn't so what he was So from what I 283 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 4: just I got from it was he was more focused 284 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 4: on getting that early penetration through the defense or through 285 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 4: the offensive line and getting after the quarterback, which a 286 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 4: lot of the defensive line in Quinn system, that was 287 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 4: their first mentality, that gotta get up to the quarterback. 288 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 4: And that's what to me. You didn't have enough guys 289 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 4: that were anchored that were like, you know what I mean, 290 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 4: you know, if the quarterback comes my way out, be 291 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 4: all right, but I'm gonna sit in this gap and 292 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 4: makes round get moved. I don't think there was enough 293 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 4: of that on the defensive line. I think it was 294 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 4: always we gotta get up field, we gotta get up field. 295 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 4: And as you see throughout the season, guys were playing, 296 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 4: we're running counters on us. Let these guys get up field. 297 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 4: Were gonna let them get right past us. And here 298 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 4: comes a running back right at that hole where they've 299 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 4: just left. So I think, you know, hopefully the you 300 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 4: know that hope them again hopefully you know, the scheme 301 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 4: this year with the defensive line, especially the interior guys, 302 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 4: is more get those concrete blocks that we talked about 303 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,559 Speaker 4: all this foot and just just sit there, let them run. Linebackers, 304 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 4: let those guys run all over the field and chase 305 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 4: down bloss Just make sure you don't get moved out 306 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 4: of your out of your block, or out of your gap. 307 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 2: But you know, a lot easier said than that. I 308 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 2: think that's that's the thing. 309 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 3: Like it's the Jecko and how the kind of good 310 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: and the bad that goes with the defense that that 311 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 3: Dan Quinn Quinn runs where you're trying to get these 312 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 3: guys in one on one, especially guys like Michael Parsons. 313 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 3: Sometimes the linebackers to where you have to run these 314 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 3: stunts with the defensive line and these ets so often 315 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 3: and these other stunts that you see so that the 316 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 3: linebackers can play off of it, and it doesn't sometimes 317 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 3: it doesn't give the defensive line interior one technique knows 318 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 3: technique the opportunity to really, hey man, this is where 319 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 3: I'm locked in that I'm playing the double here and 320 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 3: this is and this is this is just my one 321 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 3: job versus wait. I read his step and he has 322 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: to do this, and I got Michael Parsons coming behind me, 323 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 3: So now I gotta figure out how to make these 324 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 3: things work. I think this is gonna be one of 325 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 3: those Hey man, we're playing base defense, you line up 326 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 3: here at the nose, you line up here at the three, 327 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 3: and if there's a double team, you playing to them, 328 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 3: and everybody else is gonna have to play off of 329 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 3: y'all versus the opposite. So I think you'll see a 330 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 3: lot less of probably the et stunts and the spikes 331 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 3: into the b gap. I think you see a lot 332 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 3: less of that and more of, hey man, we hold 333 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 3: a point. We need guys who can whole point and 334 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 3: make sure that those those linemen stay off our linebackers. 335 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 4: It reminds me a lot of that that Marinelli system, 336 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 4: you know, when I was playing coming up with because 337 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 4: we didn't know, we didn't have a great names or 338 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 4: anything like that, but we had guys that were like, look, 339 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 4: I'm gonna sit this a gap. I'm gonna sit in 340 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 4: this big gap, and we're gonna be good against the run. 341 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 4: And we were through those stretches with Maryonelli. We're good 342 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 4: against the run. Granted, you know, we had on the 343 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 4: other side of the bar offensively a prime ezeque El 344 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 4: Elliott taking all the time of possession. We had the 345 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 4: Marco Murray taking all the time of possession. So teams 346 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 4: really couldn't get into that that run system. But I 347 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 4: believe if you have a you know, a group of 348 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 4: guys understanding their role, not playing hero ball, sit in 349 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 4: that gap, let those other guys do what they gotta. 350 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: Do, that I think you have a better defense overall. 351 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 3: Now, integrity wise, when you have the difference between what 352 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 3: Quinn is doing and what Zimmer is doing, because historically 353 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 3: Zimmer is one of those guys that believes in gap responsibility, alignment, assignment. 354 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 3: Where you were just talking about those stunts. Now, does 355 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 3: that take away from what you have on the outside 356 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 3: with Michael Parsons. Does that take away from the DeMarcus 357 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 3: Lawrences to be able to do what they do best? 358 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 3: I think less so on DeMarcus Lawrence and more so 359 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 3: on Michael Parsons just based off what we've seen them 360 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 3: be successful. Let with Dan Quinn. Can't Michael Parsons line 361 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 3: up at defensive end and continue to make plays. I 362 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 3: believe that he can, Like I believe he can get 363 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 3: that done. We will have to see him probably do 364 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 3: it more times now this season. We've had to see 365 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 3: him do it in the previous seasons. Especially if you're 366 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: playing that hey man one technique, knows technique and the 367 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 3: three or whatever that is interior and they're gonna stay 368 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 3: there and just do that. Then yeah, you're gonna have 369 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 3: to see Michael Parsons be probably more stationary than you've 370 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 3: seen them in the past. 371 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 2: What hurts me, or what got me a little bit 372 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 2: a little nervous, is that. 373 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 4: That you know that all that you know early penetration 374 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 4: et stunts and all those great blizzes Quinn was running. 375 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 4: You know, against the running might not have been that great, 376 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 4: but against the past, they were getting after the quarterback 377 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 4: and that helped that secondary in the back end tremendously. 378 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 4: When you talk about being able to take the football away, 379 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 4: sitting all routes, intercepting things, not having to cover that 380 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 4: long because you knew that pass rus was gonna get 381 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 4: there with this Zimmerar system and you know, I still 382 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 4: don't know all the ins and outs of it, but 383 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 4: if you're playing that base where it's like, all right, 384 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 4: we're gonna be hunkered down right here, that secondary they're 385 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 4: gonna have to cover, They're gonna have You're gonna have 386 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 4: to You're gonna be covering a lot longer than you 387 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 4: were in years past. So that makes me slightly nervous. 388 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 4: But you got two great corners on the outside and 389 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 4: blanding digs. You got safeties, reliable safeties back there. So 390 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 4: as long as they can, you know, work off of 391 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 4: each other, I think they'll be good. But that makes 392 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 4: me a little nervous when talking about the past coverage. Man, 393 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 4: we're getting off to a hot start. We're gonna take 394 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 4: a break and lick Chris being pay the bills.

In here with 446 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 3: my Man BC and d Mack, and we were talking 447 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 3: about the schedule, but more importantly talking about how things 448 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,479 Speaker 3: areligned up front on this defensive line, and how you're 449 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 3: gonna get pressure, and one of the most important things 450 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 3: of the off season. One of the things is happening 451 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 3: right now in the off season is Mozzie Smith. Mozzie Smith, 452 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 3: as you know, guy's lost a ton of weight going 453 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 3: the opposite direction on the scale where we would like 454 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 3: for our one techniques, got under under three hundred under 455 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 3: three hundred pounds during the season. So now it's rumored 456 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 3: that he's getting his weight back up after the shoulder surgery. 457 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 2: But I think the more. 458 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 3: Troubling thing for Cowboy fans is the fact that he's 459 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 3: not in the building and you know, there's some other 460 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 3: things that's going on. I mean, we'll tread lightly around that, 461 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 3: but at the same time, you have to have he 462 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,919 Speaker 3: I mean, he has to have a great second year 463 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 3: and it's not starting off good for us in the 464 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,159 Speaker 3: off season. Danny, what are you making of all of 465 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 3: this rumor around our number one draft pick last year? 466 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 3: I want to say first, I want to purpose it 467 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 3: by saying this. I know the guy wants to be 468 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 3: a really good player. Like nobody comes in and they're 469 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 3: like like, nah, I'm all right, you came in as 470 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 3: a first round pick. I'm sure he did his much 471 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 3: as he possibly could. That he thought was the best 472 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,120 Speaker 3: thing for him to be really good. It just didn't 473 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 3: work out. Now the surer showed the surgery. He can't 474 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: help that. He can't help that. Now he has to 475 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 3: get that in order to be healthy for the season. 476 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 3: With all that being said, that is a very tough 477 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 3: thing to do to come off a season like you 478 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 3: had last. 479 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 2: Year where you lost weight. You are underweight. 480 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 3: Now you're trying to gain weight the right way, but 481 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 3: then you're not able to work out like everybody else 482 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 3: is working out. So one we got to find out 483 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 3: that's even true weight. Once you get out of that 484 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 3: training camp, all of a sudden, you can drop another 485 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 3: twenty because you haven't been doing the things that other 486 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 3: people have been doing. I exaggerated with the twenty out, 487 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 3: but you dropped. You figure out that that's not what 488 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 3: you really thought it was. 489 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 2: Too. 490 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 3: You got a new defensive line coach, you have a 491 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 3: new defensive coordinator.

Like you can do as much footwork as 497 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 3: you can, but if you're not getting your hands on 498 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 3: guys and being able to really find out what that 499 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 3: positioning and your leverage and getting back into that that 500 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 3: groove and that habit of doing that stuff, and it's 501 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 3: gonna be hard for you to get out there.

Like it's gonna be a really quick catch 507 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 3: up for him in order to really be successful if 508 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 3: we wanted to be the season now that words me. 509 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: But can he be great?

Everybody's not gonna be here 524 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 4: working out at the same time and all that good 525 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 4: which is volunteer, which is volunteer. It's one of those, 526 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 4: you know, with the question mark, especially if you're a 527 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 4: young guy. 528 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 2: Especially if you're a young guy. 529 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 4: Now I could see you know, Dak and you know 530 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 4: Zeke and Ceedee Lamb and those guys, they might want 531 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 4: to go work on their own, but they're they're proven 532 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 4: commodities in the National Football League, you know, all pros, 533 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 4: Pro Bowls, they've they've done it all. So they've kind of, 534 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 4: I don't know if I want to say earn the right, 535 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 4: but they they've gotten to that point where they if 536 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,239 Speaker 4: they want to go work out somewhere else and come 537 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 4: back for captains workouts, then they could do. 538 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:23,959 Speaker 10: So. 539 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 4: When you're a young guy like Miles Smith was, you 540 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 4: were drafted by basically the Dan Quinn regime and they, 541 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 4: you know, they first round picked you weren't drafted by 542 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 4: you know. 543 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 2: The Zimmer regime. So you want to make sure, especially 544 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 2: coming off an injury. 545 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 4: I could see if he you know, Pro Bowl All 546 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 4: Rookie Team or something like that, coming off as rookie year, 547 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 4: even if he played and we saw flashes like man, 548 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 4: he got it, he got something in the tank, we didn't. 549 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 2: We didn't see any of that. So when you're coming. 550 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 4: Back off your second year injury, going into a new system, 551 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 4: you want to make sure you're around everybody. You want 552 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 4: to make sure the coaches are seeing your face each 553 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 4: and every day that you can be down here in Dallas, 554 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 4: not to me, only that, not only that you got possibly, 555 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 4: in my opinion, the best training staff International Football League 556 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 4: with Britt Mauer and Jim or Jimer, Britt Brown and 557 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 4: g Money and those guys. 558 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 2: They'll get you right. So there's no really real reasons 559 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 2: to go anywhere else to do your rehab. If that's 560 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 2: the case that's going on right now. 561 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 4: So for me, you know, if I'm Mozzie Smith, I 562 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 4: want to be in the building each and every day 563 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 4: learning the new stuff that the new defensive coordinator wants 564 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 4: me to do, keeping my face around, letting these guys 565 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 4: understand that, hey, I'm here and I want to get better. 566 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 4: Just from my own experience, That's how it was. We 567 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 4: had the new defensive coordinator almost every year here in Dallas, 568 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:31,959 Speaker 4: and I'm telling you, if I wasn't here working out 569 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 4: or making sure my face was shown, they were trying 570 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 4: to replace me regardless of every single year. So I 571 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 4: just had to make sure I was here in attendance. 572 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 4: And maybe if you're a first round pick is different, 573 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 4: but to me, I want to be showing my face 574 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 4: as much as possible. 575 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 2: I think they're interesting. 576 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 3: Well, the question I have for you guys, because you 577 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 3: are former Cowboys, you know the pressure. I mean, speak 578 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 3: to the pressure that possibly Mozzie Smith is under. Because 579 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 3: no one's full out and came out and said use 580 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 3: the word like this bus. 581 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 2: You know or anything like that. 582 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 3: But there are in you windows and people saying, you know, 583 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 3: little things about his first year, but it seems like 584 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 3: he's a young man under a tremendous amount of pressure 585 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 3: being the former first round twenty six pick taking in 586 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 3: the draft. What is that pressure like for a young 587 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: guy like that to come into this building every day 588 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 3: knowing the expectation that's placed on you. I think it's 589 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 3: tough one because you already have the big pressure of 590 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 3: being the Dallas Cowboys and we haven't won the Super 591 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 3: Bowl in this long and we got all the play 592 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 3: because you always here. They got all the talent, they 593 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 3: got all this and they just can't figure out how 594 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 3: to get it done. And then you say, you he knows, 595 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 3: a man, Cowboys haven't been able to stop the run 596 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 3: for the last few years. They drafted God in the 597 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 3: first round, coming from Michigan who was successful in college, 598 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 3: and they say this is going to be the missing piece, 599 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 3: and then it doesn't happen that way to where what 600 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 3: do you play like six naps? Maybe in the last game, 601 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 3: he couldn't be like like he didn't really play much 602 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 3: in that last one. Right, So now he knows and 603 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 3: he feels the fact that, hey, man, I'm a first 604 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 3: round pick and I have to play better. One of 605 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 3: the pressure is that too, is everybody's trying to get paid, right, 606 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 3: so at some point you have to be able to 607 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 3: show man put I can put it on tape to 608 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 3: where the ownership looks at me and says, one, I 609 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 3: earned this first round selection and two I'm trying to 610 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 3: get the bag moving moving on in my career. His 611 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 3: third one is now he's hurt. So now you got 612 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 3: all that pressure, and now you have the pressure one 613 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 3: to be healthy enough when the season starts to really 614 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 3: get out there and make a difference. 615 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 2: And then hey, man, now. 616 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 3: I gotta worry if I'm one of those guys who 617 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 3: are always injured, right, because now you got that on 618 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 3: you of like, well, listen, he's a really great player, but. 619 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 2: He's just not healthy. Right. 620 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,199 Speaker 3: So all guys who go out there and they get hurt, 621 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 3: what happens is when they first get back on the 622 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 3: one thing in their mind is they don't want that 623 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 3: to happen again. When you don't want to be labeled 624 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 3: as a hurt guy, and you also don't want to 625 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 3: miss that time again. So I think he has an 626 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 3: imiss amount of pressure on him. Hopefully he gets back 627 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 3: and then he gets his mind right and he can 628 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 3: overcome that. But right now, it's a lot. You think 629 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 3: he can handle it? 630 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I do think he has the capabilities of handling 631 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 4: the pressure. 632 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 2: It's a lot though. There's a lot of pressure on it. 633 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 4: Just like what Daddy just said, being that first round pick, 634 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 4: understanding that the one achilles heel for this defense over 635 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 4: the past couple of years has been the run, and 636 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 4: you right, you know, fair or not, you were the 637 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 4: guy that's gonna be. 638 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 2: Drafted to fix that problem. 639 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 4: So you got drafted, you didn't really show up your 640 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 4: rookie season for whatever the case may be. Now the 641 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 4: pressure is even announcing even more because when you look 642 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 4: at all the first round draft picks before him, I 643 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 4: think there was maybe maybe one that didn't pan out 644 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 4: and we talked to Taco. Other than that, you got 645 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 4: all pros, Pro Bowlers, all decade players as first round 646 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 4: picks for the Dallas Cowboys and then so it kind 647 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 4: of like just kind of cascade. It might not be fair, 648 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 4: but that's just the way it is. They're gonna put 649 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 4: that pressure on you to be able to stop the run. 650 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 4: It's a team effort, but you're the first round pick. 651 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 4: You're in the trenches. We want you to stop the run. 652 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 4: That's how it's gonna look like. I keep saying that 653 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 4: it's not fair, but that's just the way the game goes. 654 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 4: So there's a mint pressure on Mazie Smith going forward 655 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 4: to to kind of be that guy, not saying he 656 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 4: has to be Aaron Donald. Not saying he gotta be 657 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 4: you know, Chris Jones or anything like that, but if 658 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 4: he can just hold the paint in there and we 659 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 4: can go from being, you know, one of the worst 660 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 4: run defenses in the league too, I would even say 661 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 4: above average. 662 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 2: You know, you ain't even. 663 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 4: Gotta be great, just above average. Now I think he'll 664 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 4: he'll have done his job. But man, there's a lot 665 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 4: of pressure going on Mazie right now. 666 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 3: Look that that Dak Prescott Montra pressure is the privilege 667 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 3: doesn't apply to. 668 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 2: Everybody, a lot of everybody. 669 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 3: But speaking of first round draft picks, we all got 670 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 3: an opportunity to see Tyler guiden Uh in the building, 671 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 3: our first round draft pick, and big young man that's 672 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 3: coming into. 673 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 2: Hats his work cut out for him as well. 674 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,239 Speaker 3: He is replacing what could be a first ballot Hall 675 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 3: of Famer and Tyron Smith switching gears over to the 676 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 3: offensive line. I know there's a lot of expectation, a 677 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 3: lot of question marks placed on that offensive line. And look, 678 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 3: it's the underwear Olympics. We're not gonna know how these guys, 679 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 3: especially at the defensive and offensive line. You don't get 680 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 3: a chance to see exactly what these guys can do. 681 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 3: But a guy like Tyler Guidon stepping into going from 682 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 3: the right side to down to the left side and 683 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 3: expected to come in and be a staple and an 684 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 3: anchor on this on this offensive line, what are your 685 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 3: expectations from him coming in and Barry go ahead. 686 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 2: To me, my expectations. 687 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 4: You got to go in there and you gotta be 688 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 4: a day one starter, you know, you gotta be a 689 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 4: day one starter, and you gotta be able to contribute, 690 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 4: you know, for this team a sap because to me, 691 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 4: it seems like they're gonna keep Tyler Tyler Smith at 692 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 4: that left guard position, which you know they all proed. 693 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 4: I mean, the guy's amazing, got the left guard spot. 694 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 4: So they're gonna put you know, the first round draft 695 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,239 Speaker 4: trick guiding out there on that left tackle situation. And 696 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 4: to me, we've heard, you know, through through through great 697 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 4: founding reports that he's a project, that this guy, you know, 698 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 4: he has all this ability, but he's kind of wrong. 699 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 2: He's a raw project. 700 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 4: But we heard the same thing about Tyler coming out. Man, 701 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 4: he's got get a lot of penalties. You know, he 702 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 4: has all the talent in the world, he's just not 703 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 4: refined just yet, and look at he came out and 704 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 4: was able to do his rookie season. So if he 705 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 4: can be even a third or half of what Tyler 706 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 4: Smith was his rookie season, I think we'll have made 707 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 4: leaps and bounds and his officive line is gonna go forward. 708 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 10: Great. 709 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, And we talked about that pressure, and I 710 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 3: think the pressure is on him to get out there 711 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 3: and be a day one starter and be successful because 712 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 3: we go back to Massie. He said, hey man, we 713 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 3: got a first round pick who didn't really wasn't really 714 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 3: impactful for us the year before. We're really counting on you. 715 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 3: And I think, to me, it makes sense to move 716 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 3: him out to the left one because Tyler Smith has been 717 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 3: really good and now he's in the middle of now 718 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 3: a rookie center and then in a rookie left tackle, 719 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 3: so he's gonna be he's gonna be like that, hey man, 720 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 3: we're gonna. 721 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 2: Lean on you, though. We're gonna lean on you. 722 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 3: You the veteran guy, and he's just outstanding at left guard, 723 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 3: so I think it makes sense for him to be there. 724 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 3: But I actually have faith in the offensive line. I mean, 725 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 3: it's it's rookie here, rookie there. But just based off 726 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 3: what they were able to do with Tyler Smith and 727 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 3: if he really needed to move out the left tackle 728 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 3: they could have. I think they're gonna do everything they 729 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: have to do to get Gutting ready, and I think 730 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 3: he's gonna be okay. Now, he's gonna have a rough 731 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 3: start on I mean, that's what I'm going with this, 732 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 3: but I'm not gonna judge it. I'm not gonna judge 733 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 3: it because he's he's a rookie. I'm not gonna judge 734 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 3: it based off those first three against like, that's not 735 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 3: fair to him to be to say, listen, he go 736 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 3: out there and he struggled against everybody, some of those guys, 737 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 3: then he's just not gonna be a great player. 738 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 2: He's gonna struggle a little bit. 739 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 3: But I think as the season goes on, I think 740 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 3: he's gonna catch the same thing that happened with Tommas Smith. 741 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 3: He did start off with some penalties, so it wasn't 742 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 3: all great in his first year, but I think he's 743 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 3: gonna have an opportunity, especially once you get into the Giants. 744 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 2: I think he doesn't get that's nothing easy on here. 745 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: He's gonna be bye week twentieth. 746 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 3: He's gonna have an opportunity to take a breath and 747 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 3: see what he did wrong and come on back. And 748 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,959 Speaker 3: I gotta fake them like I'm actually I'm I'm happy 749 00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 3: with the offensive line until. 750 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 2: I and I see him feel I think. 751 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 3: I think they did what they needed to do, especially 752 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 3: knowing how your defense performed in the run game. They 753 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 3: knowing you're gonna have to go out there and throw 754 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 3: the ball and score some points of offense. 755 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 2: They did. They did the best they could. 756 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 3: Guys, I'm not gonna lie I'm nervous. No, No, I appreciate, 757 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 3: I really do, and I and I think where where 758 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 3: my greatest concern comes from is that he is moving 759 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 3: from right tackle in college to left tackle in the pros. 760 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 3: And I mean, you guys, being two former veterans in 761 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 3: the NFL, y'all know the speed difference is completely different 762 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 3: than still when hello, that was during the season. That's true. 763 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 2: I think the difference in those This man. 764 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 3: Is gonna have a whole off season and extra work 765 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 3: to play left tackle. They were moving guys from right 766 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 3: to left mid season, Yeah, which did. 767 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 2: Tyrans trying to play right? 768 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 3: Did tyrns play yes, like like those are like he's 769 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 3: been doing this for his entire career, playing left. So 770 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 3: I think that that is a that that's a slight 771 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 3: difference in like what what's going on with g versus 772 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 3: what we've seen previously. And I was here saying, a man, 773 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 3: it's not the same and Nate knew what to tell you, 774 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 3: the same thing. But when you got a whole off 775 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 3: season o t as Ricky Minnie camp, training camp, and 776 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 3: then going to the season learning that position, that I 777 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 3: think is a little it's a little different. 778 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 2: Words like raw, like. 779 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 3: That'll take you a little bit. And I'm just saying, 780 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 3: I'm just saying, like Rock, he still has work to do, right, Okay, 781 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 3: I think that I think that worries me. I think 782 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 3: words me and and you know, Nick Nick Harris had 783 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 3: an article about Tyler guy and this is Coaches Corner 784 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 3: if you got to check it out. Those articles that 785 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 3: he's writing where he's getting an opportunity to interview some 786 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 3: of the coaches from my draft picks. He talked got 787 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 3: an opportunity to talk to Tyler Guid's offensive line coach, 788 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 3: and those are some of the things that he said, 789 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 3: Like the mature factor from the jump that he made 790 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 3: his first year in at Oha because it's transferred from 791 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 3: TCU to Oklahoma. But still just saying that, you know, 792 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,399 Speaker 3: he was more of a project because of Look, he's 793 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 3: he's big, strong, long arms, is quick feet, but he's 794 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 3: not as heavy handed as you would like for for 795 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 3: a guy to be. 796 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 2: So that's all. That's my only thing. 797 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 3: And you keep bringing this up over and over again, 798 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 3: and I look at this schedule and I'm saying, this 799 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 3: kid's confidence could be shot, especially knowing that he's going 800 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 3: to be going up against one a couple of the 801 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:34,439 Speaker 3: best pass ruptures in the league. Yeah, he gonna get them. Yeah, 802 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 3: and you look at it. 803 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 2: Let's see right now. Man, you got Miles Gear. I mean, 804 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 2: you got the Baltimore Raate's. They got two guys coming 805 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 2: off there, t J. Watt. You got what's the guy 806 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:46,479 Speaker 2: from New York, Tip Iteau. 807 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 3: You got Detroit, Detroit, Yeah, in the Zimber Bowl, you know, 808 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:58,760 Speaker 3: not him, him and his officeive coordinator gonna he's a rookie. Okay, 809 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 3: you're talking about confidence. You gotta you have to find 810 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 3: a way to get the ball out of the dak 811 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 3: Hans quick You're gonna have to figure out a way 812 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 3: to me. The one the thing that can always fix 813 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 3: a worry like that is figure out a way to 814 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 3: run the ball. Absolutely, offensive lineman and that situation want 815 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 3: to maul you. They want to They want to get 816 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 3: their confidence up by moving you off the line of scrimmage. 817 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 3: And then you know, then they feel a little bit 818 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 3: more comfortable with that. If you get him out there 819 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 3: and you're throwing forty passes in the first game against 820 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns, that's where your confidence might get shook 821 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 3: because now you've got opportunity, forty opportunities. You got forty 822 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 3: opportunities to get out there and get some sex. 823 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 2: Now. 824 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 3: So now I think I think us establishing the run game, 825 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 3: which I know is total opposite of McCarthy, and it's 826 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 3: and how he and how he rolls. But I think 827 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 3: you just last year he did start off trying to 828 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 3: run the football. So hopefully this year he follows up 829 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,479 Speaker 3: and he tries to run the football at the beginning 830 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 3: of the seeon, so are we going, and we start 831 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 3: looking at this the start and five right now we 832 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 3: are saying Tyler Guiding at the left tackle, Tyler Smith 833 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 3: at the left guard, and there's gonna be a battle 834 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:04,479 Speaker 3: for the center center position between Brock Hoffman and Cooper BB. 835 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 3: Zach Martin's a lock, and ter Steele is a lot 836 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 3: at the center center position. Any interest in that battle 837 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 3: between Hoffman and BB. 838 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 4: That's gonna be a good battle because Hoffman when he 839 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 4: came in that that commander's game. 840 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 2: I mean, he shows some nastiness like he was he 841 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 2: was finishing. 842 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 4: His blocks, and I mean he's been in the system, 843 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 4: so he knows how to communicate through the offensive line. 844 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 4: So but you got BB as a high draft pick, 845 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 4: So that's gonna be an interesting battle. 846 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 3: Right there here for either one of those centers.

I mean, I think 980 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,439 Speaker 3: you are a little wrong because we talked multiple times 981 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,160 Speaker 3: about Detroit being the top five team because of how 982 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 3: they run the ball and how Jared But it's always 983 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 3: been because of how they run the ball and how 984 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 3: they play defense, not so much that Jared Goff is 985 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 3: gonna get them there do you. 986 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 2: I mean, come on now, don't tell me that you had. 987 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,439 Speaker 3: We never picked up Detrot's defense, bro, I never said 988 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 3: that said Detroit defense is and reason today because Aaron 989 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 3: Glenn that was struggling last year, okay, tend to keep 990 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 3: them going. It was because they could run the ball 991 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 3: if Jared Golf was not turning it over. But he 992 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 3: also had say Brown, and they picked up the tight 993 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 3: end and he was making those guys better. Jared Golf 994 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 3: just based off how he played the previous year and 995 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 3: this year earned that money and that's and that's how 996 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 3: it goes. 997 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 2: I would take it one good year. 998 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 3: But for you to say, hey man, it's time for 999 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 3: you to pay me because I got us here, let 1000 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 3: me turn there, let me pivot out of this time 1001 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 3: because if that goes n NC Championship, he should get sixty. 1002 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 2: And that's what he's gonna say. 1003 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 3: Okay, what because I feel like you have to get 1004 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 3: DA's deal done before the season. Am I only one 1005 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 3: that feels like you have ton you right, you got 1006 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 3: to get him and then feel like you gotta get 1007 00:43:59,000 --> 00:43:59,439 Speaker 3: them done. 1008 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,839 Speaker 2: I don't know what they're doing now. I'm just so 1009 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 2: all right. 1010 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 3: So as far as the conversation when you saw Jared 1011 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 3: Goff get his money, the first thing you say to yourself, 1012 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 3: all right, the clock is ticking. Now this number is 1013 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 3: gone from fifty three. 1014 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:16,399 Speaker 4: To it's going it's gonna five at least, I'm gonna 1015 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 4: come back, Beau. They're gonna be like, look at the 1016 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 4: highest paid guy is Joe Burrow, fifty five, been in 1017 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 4: the super Bowl. There is you know, what have you done? 1018 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 4: And that's gonna be the you know that's gonna it's 1019 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 4: my time, Like that's how it works. So it's gonna 1020 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 4: be it's gonna be a interesting battle, gonna be in 1021 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 4: the battle, but he gonna get paid regard me, he 1022 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 4: gonna get his bread. 1023 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 3: So as far as quarterbacks and just doing the comparison 1024 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 3: annalysis between those two quarterbacks, I mean, who do you 1025 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 3: give the nine to? 1026 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,439 Speaker 2: Jared Goff for DAK regular. 1027 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:42,319 Speaker 3: Season the Cold to Prescott playoffs just the last, Like 1028 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 3: I'm just going off who has had more success. 1029 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 2: In the playoffs, even it's running last, It has been 1030 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:48,720 Speaker 2: Jared Goff. 1031 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 3: And that's the thing, the only thing that's holding DAK 1032 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 3: Prescott back from being one like one of the perennial 1033 00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 3: top two top three guys, is how he performs in 1034 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: the playoffs, or let's say this, how his team's perform 1035 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 3: war in the playoffs, because it always falls on the quarterback. 1036 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 2: We've seen that. 1037 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 3: It just it hadn't been up to par to where 1038 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,760 Speaker 3: you say, you finished second in the m v MVP voting, 1039 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 3: but then you get knocked out in the first round 1040 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 3: of the playoffs, and partially is your fault. And I 1041 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 3: could see if like we went to these playoff matchups 1042 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 3: and he had like a hurts in the super Bowl 1043 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,879 Speaker 3: where he outplayed my homes but they still lost. 1044 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 4: We look at these last two playoff performances. Now, I 1045 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 4: mean that's five interceptions, you know, so I think two 1046 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 4: got taken back for touchdown. It's like he's been I'm 1047 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 4: not gonna give him the majority of it, but he's 1048 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 4: he has his fair share in the l's taking in 1049 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,239 Speaker 4: the playoffs. So I think you got to put that 1050 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 4: in there as well. But I think he'll still get me. 1051 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 3: Barry you drug Robbie Blake portals to the championship. 1052 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:51,360 Speaker 2: This what's hurting you get so upset the vote and 1053 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 2: then they paid them, So who did you take? So 1054 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 2: you got that? 1055 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 3: You got that, and you got damn, I'm gonna go 1056 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 3: golf on this. I got to you just got to 1057 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 3: go by the factuals. Two different teams, and you deck 1058 00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 3: all the way. 1059 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 2: You know it, you know what I mean. 1060 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 3: I'm looking at the numbers too, But I understand you. 1061 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 3: We're going we're separated. It's not that you're moving the 1062 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 3: goal post. You're basically saying, look, there's regular season and 1063 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,760 Speaker 3: this postseason, and you're you're giving the postseason to Jared 1064 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 3: Goff because of the success. And I can't argue with 1065 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 3: that because we always say, man, you're gonna go twelve 1066 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 3: and five and then and no one cares after that. 1067 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 3: Like if you go to and five this year, get 1068 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,839 Speaker 3: nobody cares about that twelve and five. They only care 1069 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 3: about what then happens in round one, round two, round three. Yeah, 1070 00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,680 Speaker 3: I got twelve and five right here too. Anyway, that's 1071 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:43,439 Speaker 3: the end of lads.
