A lot of different topics we'll hit today. 14 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: Brian's got a game for us, so we'll do it 15 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: to that and have a little bit of fun. I 16 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: also have some questions at out toss these guys to 17 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: give us a little bit of a quarter review now 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: that we're about a quarterway through the season. Now it's 19 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: seventeen games. It's not really an even breakdown of the 20 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: quarters a quarter of the season, but we're almost here, 21 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: So we'll give a little breakdown there. If you just 22 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: make it twenty you know they're going to play twenty games, 23 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: and then you would like that. And I'm not sure 24 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: the players would like that, but I would like that, well, 25 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 1: I mean theffs. You know, I got three playoff game. 26 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: You would like that. I would like that. Yeah, I 27 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: can't control that, though, can't control that. I would love that. 28 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: That would be outstanding. If the season ended today, Yeah, 29 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if we haven't gotten there yet. Well, 30 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: if the season ended today, you do know your Cowboys 31 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: would be in the player probably like five seeds. Yeah, 32 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 1: something like that. I think. You know. The interesting part is, 33 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: and this is kind of dovetails into the topic I 34 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: wanted to hit first, there would actually be three teams 35 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: from the NFC East in the playoffs if the season 36 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: ended today. The Giants would be the seventh seed, The 37 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys I think, were like the fifth seed, and the 38 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: Eagles would be I think the number one. And they're terrible. 39 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: Who is a Giant? Oh? I thought the Eagles? Okay, yeah, 40 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: now Eagles are good. Yeah, I'm not I'm not sure. 41 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how good the Giants are, but I 42 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: will say this, whatever they are, I think they're better 43 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: than they were last year, because last year they were 44 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 1: losing the bad teams. These they're beating bad teams now. 45 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: So I think that's there's something that said about that 46 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: brought us is famous line of NFL as a strange lady. 47 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: That's it. It's it's it's very she's really weird. This year. 48 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: We're still trying to figure out everything, you know. I mean, 49 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: but because I don't know how good the Giants are. 50 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: Who knows how good the Cowboys are? I mean, who knows? 51 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: But their defense looks pretty good. I'll tell else that's 52 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: a good defense. Forty nine ers, Yeah, god, forty Niners 53 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: have always had they when they're healthy, like they just 54 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: don't know, you just don't know when they're going to 55 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: be healthy. But when they're healthy, they got a ton 56 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: of talent on that defense. So so so Washington gave 57 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: up nine sacks to the Eagles, and then played the 58 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: Cowboys and give up two, and then the Niners and 59 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: then the Rams give up seven sacks to the forty Niners. 60 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: Will see what happens this game. Well, here's the deal. 61 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: Let's be clear, the Cowboys won't sneak up on anybody 62 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: when it comes to their defensive front. So every team 63 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys played, just like I think the Commanders, 64 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: came into that game with a very clear game plan. 65 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: We're gonna run the ball, We're gonna throw a lot 66 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: of short, quick passes. We are not going to expose 67 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: our quarterback to getting hit. Yeah, and I think the 68 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys can probably expect that's going to be the game 69 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: plan for a ton of teams that they will play 70 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: this year, because they've already shown teams if you don't 71 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 1: do that, you are putting your quarterback at risk. That 72 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: would be a real challenge. No, this week is going 73 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: to be a real challenge, especially when you get embarrassed 74 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: to just nine points. I would assume as a team, 75 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: especially playing at home, you'll be pretty pissed off and 76 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: ready to go. So this would be a real test 77 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys offense to see how they perform, because 78 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: I don't think with Cooper Rush, we haven't really seen 79 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: them play against a team with this type of caliber. Yeah, 80 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: this is on the defensive side of the ball though, too. 81 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: This is all going to be about and we'll get 82 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: into all that. You know, it's going to be about 83 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: a tight end and a wide receiver. Really, for the Rams, 84 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: running the football has just been so painful for them, 85 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 1: And we'll study more about that this evening. But you know, 86 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: it's whoever's got Cooper Cup in this game. It's gonna 87 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: be an all days struggle for all day and it's 88 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: gonna be nineteen targets, and it's gonna be You're probably 89 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: gonna get thrown on. You're probably gonna get fourteen of 90 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: them caught. It's gonna how you're gonna defend the other five. 91 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: You know, that's how you're gonna That's how this game 92 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 1: could very well play out for you or Tyler Higbee. 93 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: You know, whoever's gonna have to carry Tyler Higbee the 94 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: tight end, it's gonna be twelve targets for him. So 95 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: it it's gonna come down to a couple of different 96 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: players for them. I think in a weird way, I 97 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: think it almost hurts their team a little bit when 98 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: when now here we are all offseason, c Lamar has 99 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: got to figure out a way to get Ceedee Land 100 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: the ball, to get your number one guys, all the 101 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: Rams they get Cooper Cup the ball, Yeah they do. 102 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: But it's almost it's almost at a point where like 103 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: that's all they do, and that's all they want to do. 104 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: And therefore once I mean, yeah, he got fourteen passes, 105 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: where'd you go? You know? I mean like like caught 106 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: it eighty nine yards of cat and he gets age yeah, 107 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: all the time. So like I don't know, Like I 108 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: don't know if that's just the strategy, get your number 109 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: one guy the ball all the time, if if if 110 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: no one else can can do anything, you know what 111 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's got to be a little 112 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: bit more balance. It can't just be dump off dump 113 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: off dump offs and let this little guy's not that big, 114 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: it's getting crushed. I mean, Jayron Curse if he comes back, 115 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: Donor Wilson, those guys would love to be hitting on 116 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: him all like that. They used to be able to 117 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: run the ball, you know. And then and then they 118 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: had Odell Beckham too, so he had a weapon to 119 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: go along with Cooper cut They've lost they've lost Van Jefferson, 120 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: he has not yet, but they lost jeff Yeah, and 121 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: that that was gonna be their number two and he's 122 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 1: out now in I R I think for us to 123 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: return and something Odell hasn't signed. No Odell. I just 124 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: thought the fact he just visited, he was he was 125 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: going to see Shepherd. He just went to go see 126 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: Shepherd after his surgery. I saw on Fantasy where it 127 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: was trending where where Odell Beckhams is now people are 128 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: picking him up on Fantasy. So I was like, I 129 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: don't know what he was in New York yesterday, but 130 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: I mean, he's still unsigned, but I don't know that 131 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: he'd be ready November. November doesn't help them, And I 132 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: do think there's gonna be a lot of conversations this 133 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,679 Speaker 1: week on not just here but everywhere. I think that 134 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people are talking about the Rams from 135 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: the standpoint of is it enough to just have Cooper Cup? 136 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: You know, when you got the guy getting you know, 137 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, fifteen targets a game, they're off at 138 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 1: some point you gotta think, like, what are you going 139 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: to do offensively other than Cooper Cup? Right? Yeah? Their 140 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: offensive line, you know, is really that's been the biggest problem. 141 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: They've been banged up. They're on multiple centers, multiple guards, 142 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: they lose a you know, an all pro tackle. You know. 143 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: Now they've got note Boom playing and he doesn't look 144 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: really completely ready to take the job. So it's going 145 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: to be an interesting game from the Cowboys. Aspect of 146 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: attacking the Rams, I mean, if if Matthew Staffu is 147 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: gonna throw the ball forty eight times and it's only 148 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: going to go for a little over five yards, she's 149 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: give me that all day, Give me that all day. 150 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: If it's the same recipe, you just beat the Commanders, right, 151 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: you know, they threw the ball forty something times and 152 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: they only through for four yards a completion. Just bring 153 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: it on without the power running game that Washington kind 154 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: of has, because they don't have that. They quite frankly, 155 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: I don't think their defense necessarily is a sack scared 156 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: of right now, no sacks for that scared of that defense. 157 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: So if if the offense can do what they've been doing, 158 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: get them right right there around that twenty point range, 159 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: then you know they got a shot. The pressure, the 160 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: pressure that the Rams. I was looking some numbers, not 161 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: that I'm nerding on numbers, but I mean just sometimes 162 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: you do. But the pressures that they're bringing on blitzes 163 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: and not getting home is alarming. That they're having to 164 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: bring pressure and they're not getting rushed or something. Again, 165 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: they give up no sacks. I think the forty nine 166 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: Ers have got a good offensive line, even though Trent 167 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: Williams has been banged up for them. But yeah, the 168 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: fact that the Rams get little pressure, and you know, 169 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: and if you can hold, if you can hold that 170 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: defensive tackle Aaron Donald to no sacks in the game 171 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: and only four tackles, man, sign me up for that too. Yeah, yeah, 172 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: I just I just think this is going to be 173 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: really fun game. I think that Cowboys have some advantages 174 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: obviously with defense against the Rams offense, and then you know, 175 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball, we'll see I mean, 176 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: it's gonna be tough, like you said, Aaron Donald. But 177 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: but also I mean this game has been on schedule 178 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: since it came out in May. I mean, Cowboy fans 179 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: will be there. Home Gate will be a it will 180 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: be a lot of fans. We saw it with the Chargers, 181 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: you know, last year. It'll be the same this year. 182 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: You know, their season, they won Super Bowl last year 183 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: and they I'm sure that those fans of you know, 184 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: and they're selling some tickets. The Cowboys will have a 185 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: huge crowd. It'll be a really fun like Bowl game 186 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: type atmosphere. It'll be really fun. I made that point 187 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: yesterdar in the radio, and the guys look at me like, 188 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: I said, this is going to be a home game 189 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. Watch and they kind of looking at 190 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: me like what do you mean? I go at Southern 191 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: California fan base for the Cowboys is huge. We see it. 192 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: We go to Oxnard. You understand that this is their opportunity. 193 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: The Chargers game last year. I mean the Chargers had 194 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: to go silent count in the game last year because 195 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: of the Cowboys fans and was their first game ever 196 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 1: Yeah with fans, Yeah so far. Yeah, So I think 197 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: that I think it's the same thing. Cowboy fans will 198 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: show up in Southern California. It'll be it'll be a 199 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: good crowd. And I don't know about saying a home 200 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: game because I did. I don't care. Well I think, 201 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: but I think it'll be like fifty fifty. But what 202 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: happens and those those games we've all been, Yeah, where 203 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: like the fans bring out the best in each other 204 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: or worst, but they bring out the enthusiasm and each other. 205 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: You don't want to be hearing the Rams fans. Don't 206 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: want to be here and let's go Cowboys, and then 207 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 1: they start getting in and then it just and it 208 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: just makes everything huge. It'd be really fun. It's gonna 209 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: be a fun game, and I think the Cowboys can compete. 210 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: I really do. The one thing I'm interested in saying, 211 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: I agree with you that it will be a lot 212 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: of Cowboys fans. I want to see if at all 213 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: that's affected by the fact that they want a super Bowl, 214 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: because I do think that fans can often be you know, 215 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: you can you can have a lot more fans that'll 216 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: show up when you just want a super Bowl, right, 217 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: there are a lot more people who want to jump 218 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: on the bandwagon at that point. I wonder how much 219 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: that has affected their fan base in LA to the 220 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: point where does it now are they now having more 221 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: people that are going to those games that bought the 222 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: tickets rather than selling them, let's say, to Cowboys fans, 223 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: so I'll be interested to see. I'm not saying it 224 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: won't be I'm just saying I'll be interested to see. 225 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: I think that's a little bit of a wrinkle there 226 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: that could change maybe the dynamic of what that game 227 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: feels like. And in typical situations where we've gone now later, Well, 228 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: they got smoked by Buffalo an opening day, you know, 229 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: I mean that was a home loss. It was bad, 230 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: and sometimes you have some bad losses along the way. 231 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: That fan base there's other things they can go do. 232 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: You know, that's not that's not like a that's not 233 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,599 Speaker 1: a fan base. It's like, cheez, we gotta go to 234 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: the game this week because we got nothing going on. Yeah, 235 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 1: it's like, have your thought about going up to Ventura 236 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: this weekend? I know the Rams are playing, but let's 237 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: just go up, you know.

Some places you don't 240 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: have that advantage. Ye. All right, we're gonna check our 241 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: first break and we come back.

At the start of the segment, 291 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: brought to you by blockchain dot Com, let's do a 292 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: little quarter review. I got a few questions here that 293 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw at you guys on some different topics, 294 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: just kind of a let's look and see what you 295 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 1: guys think. The first question out for you is which 296 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: free agent loss do you think the Cowboys missed the most. 297 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: Here are the answers that you can choose from Randy Gregory, 298 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: Lyle Collins, Amari Cooper or none of the above. Be 299 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: a Marie Cooper. I mean I think, I mean, there's 300 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: a team, like they still lead the league in sacks, 301 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: but they may not now, but they did last week. 302 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if they lead the league in sacks, 303 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: but they still did. Okay, Well, yeah, I mean I 304 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: can't say that they miss them. Then, I mean, and 305 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: then Lyle, I mean we saw Lyle's work or this year. Yeah, 306 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: I mean, and he's now hurt. Yeah, Okay, which is 307 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: which is availability? Remember they kept saying availability and I 308 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: don't know. I saw Randy Gregory's name pop up on something. 309 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: Saw that Randy Gregor was hurt as well. I haven't 310 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: heard this meniscus. He's gonna be about three or four games. Yeah, 311 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: they had to get some two to six weeks Carle shape, 312 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: some Cartlet shaped or something like that. Got to be 313 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: Cooper then, because the offense, I mean, you know, I 314 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: mean the offensive receivers are Donal Kay, I mean Brown 315 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: and the starting but I mean I think Cooper looks 316 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: pretty good over there too with a plane with the 317 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: backup quarterback. So I think I think the answer there 318 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: is Cooper. Yeah, I agree with that. And aside from injury, 319 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: like just looking at talent wise, what they were, what 320 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: they were bringing to you, and what you currently have, 321 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: I think that maybe the Cowboys would have won that 322 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: game for Week one against Tampa had they had Amari 323 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: Cooper in the roster in the offense, I think the 324 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: offense would have looked differently. They would have been able 325 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: to maybe move the ball a lot better and score 326 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: some points enough for you to get to win. Because 327 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: we know the defense was able to hold Tom Brady down. 328 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: But despite Noah Brown having a great season, so far 329 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: showing things that me personally, I didn't think he would 330 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: be able to take that kind of weight on him. 331 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: He's been good, but I think that Ceedee Lamb would 332 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: have kind of stepped up a lot sooner had Amari 333 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: Cooper been here already. And I know he would have 334 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: maybe been the number one receiver, but still it would 335 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: have created that balance on offense that you are currently 336 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: I feel like still missing because regardless with Michael Gallup 337 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: being back, it's gonna take a couple more weeks for 338 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: you to hopefully start looking like it's working together. None 339 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: of them they missed. None of them. Absolutely, none of them. 340 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: Your point about the receiver stepping up, Ceedee Lamb stepping up, 341 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: Noah Brown stepping up, you got Michael Gallup stepping back. 342 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: When we were all in Oxnard, they were telling us like, 343 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: why are you guys so worried about these receivers. Don't 344 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: be worried about these receivers. Don't be worried about these receivers, 345 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: you know, and we kept asking the question. Washington got hurt, well, 346 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: and you're going to get a receiver, need a veteran guy. 347 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: They knew where Michael Gallup was going to be in 348 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: all this. They really really do, and so to me, 349 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: I feel like though they've got the receivers. I like 350 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: what you're saying about a Maury Cooper excu Ceedee Lamb 351 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: having to elevate his game. I think that's I think 352 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: that's something that's been a real positive for them. I 353 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: think Noah Brown stepping up out of the shadow. They 354 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: tried to make Noah Brown and Cedric Wilson the same guy. 355 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson just became a little bit better player, and 356 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: they went, Okay, Cedric, you're our guy nowhere. You're now 357 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: on special teams. Noah's seen what happened to him last year. 358 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: He elevated his game too. He's a guy that you 359 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: can go out and be reliable. I think his numbers 360 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: are very similar to what am. I think a Maury 361 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: had one catch for nine yards the other day. His 362 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: home road splits are still bad, and he plays on 363 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: the road. He's a bad player at home. He's he's 364 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: an all pro. But see that's what I'm saying that 365 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: you know, the thing is, as much as I hate so, 366 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: he'd be fine this week against the Rams because they're 367 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: playing at home. Yeah, they play home yea. So, but 368 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 1: the thing about it is, to me, as critical as 369 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: I am with Steel, they're getting away with that. They 370 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: trust Steal more than they trust Collins. The health he 371 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: couldn't bend because the hips. She can't play him at tackle. Well, 372 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: I mean he's play m at guard now he's hurt. 373 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: You know, the reliability factor. And besides, they made that 374 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: a little personal in my opinion, not the Dallas Cowboys 375 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 1: dot Com opinion. Brian brought us his opinion. Okay, so 376 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 1: to me, they're they're looking at Randy Gregory. They figured 377 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,199 Speaker 1: it out, they figured out what they went out and 378 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: got Fouler, They got Armstrong. Armstrong with this coaching has 379 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: gotten better. You know, they've gotten better with this coaching. 380 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 1: It's proven that. You know, they wanted to sign Randy Gregory. 381 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: His agent didn't allow him to sign here. His agent says, well, 382 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,239 Speaker 1: I'm gonna shop this deal to Denver and see what 383 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: we get. You know, Randy, you know Jerry Jones is 384 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: talking about what you got three for one. That's a 385 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: good you know, But in reality, they wanted to sign 386 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory. Yeah, they don't miss any of these players 387 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: right now. You know, you got you got a factor 388 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: into You can't just say, well, put Amari Cooper on 389 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: this team because now they still have some money available. 390 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: But when you go and look at you know, jay 391 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: Ron Curse that they added, and Malie Cooker and Layton 392 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: vander Ash and Dorin's Armstrong and Fowler and Brian Anger, 393 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: and you know they added all all of these other 394 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: guys in here that I don't know if you can 395 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: get all of them with with just keeping the twenty 396 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: million dollars tag, which you know Cooper said he would 397 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: he would, he would bring it down a little bit. 398 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: But you know, if they wanted to do that. But still, 399 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: you know, if you're going to sign these guys, you 400 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: don't have the depth at some of the other positions. 401 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 1: I still think you can get some of them, but 402 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 1: not all of them. And I think depth at safety, 403 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: depth a defensive end is helping this team thrive. Yeah. Yeah, 404 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: And that's I agree with you, Brian. I don't think 405 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: I don't think they're noticing any of them. I mean, 406 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, if you had Amari Cooper's talent 407 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: on paper, you are a better team. I get that. 408 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 1: I think that Ultimately, I actually liked the idea of 409 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: forcing cd Lamb to step up his say at Amber 410 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: and so for me, that's actually positive if it's gonna 411 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: make him. And by the way, if we're starting to 412 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: see signs that maybe he's gonna do that, we won't 413 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: know until the season is done whether he really did 414 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: that and really assert himself to be the number one guy. 415 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: And he is among those receivers in the league that 416 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: are number one receivers. But I do like the idea 417 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: of forcing him to do that and not letting Amari 418 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: Cooper be a crutch for him. I've got to I've 419 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: got to figure out if I gotta pay Ceedee Lamb 420 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: here soon enough if you have to your point, which 421 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: I thought was really really good, and it to me, 422 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: if I can't figure out what Ceedee Lamb is. His 423 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: numbers are good the first two years. Everybody's like killing 424 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: him because of his numbers. So I'm like, he let 425 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: the team last year, and that's what I'm saying, look 426 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: at the numbers. And so to me, that's where I 427 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: got to figure out. I'm not willing to This receiver 428 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: market is crazy with the money they're spending for guys. 429 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: You know that guy from Arizona leaves and he goes 430 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: to Miami or Jacksonville. Yeah, that should to Jacksonville, Christian 431 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk And I'm like, what, yeah, what you know 432 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: that kind of thing, And you know, no, I need 433 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: to figure this thing out before show me that you're 434 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 1: the guy. Show me I could rely on you. If not, 435 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go get another guy. But I can't give 436 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: a guy twenty twenty five million dollars just on hope. 437 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: You know, I got to give it on the performance. 438 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 1: And people out there right now are going, whoa broad 439 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: us They've given money to guys on hope before. You know, 440 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: I think this organization's in a different mindset with that now. 441 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 1: I think that if they go if you go back 442 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 1: and look at and this is again me talking the 443 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 1: Zeke deal and other deals, they might have been not 444 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: so willing to step up the way they did. You know. 445 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: They they moved on from from Jalen Smith. They moved 446 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: on from him. Yeah, Dan Quinn, somebody went in and said, 447 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: kat can't play, can't play. Why why do'd you give 448 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: nine million dollars you can't play? You know some And 449 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: they said, okay, you're right, We'll move on so I 450 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: think we're maybe getting a little bit of a trend 451 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: of that of guys moving on from guys. All right, 452 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: here's our next question. If you could sign one upcoming 453 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: free agent to a new deal right now, who would 454 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: it be. I'll give you a few names. Actually, they 455 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 1: got a lot of guys that are on this list 456 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: free just for next year. But Cooper Rush, Donovan Wilson, 457 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: Noah Brown, Terrence Steele, Brett Maher if you could sign 458 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: one of them right now, And it could be for 459 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: different reasons. It could be because you feel like if 460 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: you do it now, you get a better deal. But 461 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: if you could sign one of those guys right now, 462 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: who would it be? Man Um, you said, Rush Brown, 463 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 1: Rush Brown, Wilson, Steele, And all right, I could sign 464 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 1: him right now. You can sign him right now, Cooper Rush, 465 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: because I'm signing my backup quarterback and not having to 466 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: deal with trying to get another backup quarterback. That's yeah, 467 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: I think it's Cooper Rush. If you can get him now, 468 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: he needed to. He would need to fire his agent 469 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: for doing that. Yeahs agent would be an idiot to 470 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: do that right now. M But I mean, yeah, that 471 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 1: would be my guy. Well, if you gave him enough money, 472 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,719 Speaker 1: I think, oh, yeah, you could definitely do it. But 473 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: I mean right now, I mean, I haven't lost as 474 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: a starter. So there's teams, there's teams in around the 475 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: NFL that were like, oh, I would like quarterbacks that win, 476 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: you know, and so, and I know it's not just him, 477 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: it's not. He even said it. That's what I like 478 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: about it. He says, it's the defense. Yeah, So I 479 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: like that he's aware. You know, quarterbacks need awareness, and 480 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: he's aware of everything. I think I agree with that. 481 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: I would probably do him because I know how difficult 482 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: we've seen it happen here, how difficult it is to 483 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: have a capable backup quarterback. And he's a guy that 484 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: although the offense hasn't been explosive whatsoever and scoring a 485 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 1: bunch of points or anything like that, he's played very clean. 486 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: He's made his game look very clean. And to me, 487 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: everything that he's shown so far and the way he 488 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 1: acts after the game, he's just so humble about everything. 489 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: I just I'm becoming a fan again of Cooper Rush 490 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: and what he brings to the table in this scheme. 491 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: I think you signed Cooper Rush if they change coaches 492 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if I would do that, but it's 493 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: for right here, right now. I think I would go 494 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: with Wilson is who I would go with, because I 495 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: trust what dan Quinn's gonna do with him. I try 496 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: as much as and I think you're gonna see this. 497 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna see Curse played down, Wilson and 498 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: Hooker play deep. And I think you're gonna play Wilson 499 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: as a robber. And I mean a robber, like a 500 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: guy that plays in the middle between like the linebackers 501 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 1: and the safeties, and when the people are trying to 502 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: run all this crap it's crossing and all that. You 503 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 1: got a guy that can go and react and go 504 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 1: get the football, knock people out in the middle of 505 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: the field, make it difficult to catch the ball. Hey, 506 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,479 Speaker 1: I got a match up against a tight end. You know, 507 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: we'll let Curse play the run because he's a bigger 508 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: guy and he could tackle really well. Wilson could cover. 509 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: We've seen him run like heck to cover the back, 510 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 1: you know, third of the field. I think, man, this 511 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: team has chased safeties forever ever. They finally figured it out. 512 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: They finally figured it out. You know it took George 513 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: Edwards saying, Hey, this Curse guy can play a little bit. 514 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: There's not a out in the league that it would 515 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: have told you that Curse can cover and play it 516 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: down and do all those things as long as dan 517 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: Quinn's as long as dan Quinn's a defensive coordinator. Here, 518 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: give me all his guys, everybody he wants to sign 519 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: that he plays in the scheme, Give me all those cats, 520 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: because I know that that's gonna be worth my money, 521 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: I really do. I would actually say Cooper Rush, but 522 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: i'd say him for a little different reason. The way 523 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 1: I look at this is having a quarterback that's a 524 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 1: backup quarterback that can play and that team's think is 525 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: a good Let's just say it, he's a good quarterback. 526 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: There's value for that. Sure, you might be able to 527 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: turn that around and leverage that in a trade where 528 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: maybe now you're talking a significant trade option. Like literally, 529 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if a teams doing to give me 530 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 1: a one, but maybe they're willing to give me a two. 531 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: But you would you take a four right now? Right now? No, okay, 532 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: because this is a game I play on one oh 533 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: five three. The fan called my Gang of seven which 534 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: are general managers and guys, old krusty guys I worked 535 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: with throughout the league. There was three of them. Five 536 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 1: of them got back to me. One of them said, nah, 537 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't give anything. Another guy said, I'd give you 538 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: a five. The other three said they would give me 539 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: a four. That's that's where they were at right now. 540 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: And one of me, all those teams that they made 541 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 1: a quarterback. Yeah, one of my guys is like, he's 542 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 1: he's on he's right now working guys out kind of 543 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: a deal. So you know, yeah, but he said he's like. 544 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: Three of those guys said a four now before the 545 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: season in training camp and bar I go and bar 546 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: Cooper rush I could get a fourth round pick from 547 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: him right now? What are you gonna say? Do it? 548 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, there you go. I mean we're up there. 549 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 1: We're like, I mean, frankly, there was better. I would 550 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: hang up right now if I would first, I would 551 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: do because I would tell you this, Yeah, you guys 552 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: are hard to do at the second round is a wash? Sure? 553 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: What what? What guy with a torn al? Character issues 554 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: are we gonna get from the second round? You know? 555 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: Jerry drafts of the second round, all of that I 556 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 1: don't want that, But I'm just saying I can't what 557 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: if that hurts them again and it's like, well, who's 558 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 1: the backup? Like, well, we got Will Greer or somebody 559 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: could have been Cooper Rush, but we got we sure 560 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: did get Jake Ferguson. Though you just don't do it 561 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 1: during the season, you don't know. I mean, I got 562 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 1: a fourth round pick. I mean, like I always think 563 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: of like the worst fourth round picks, not that, but 564 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: I think of the Charles Tappers, Like what if you 565 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: traded for a fourth round pick when you have a 566 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: backup that can come into play. But I'll tell you this, 567 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: so Bright, here's a question. Yeah, it is his value 568 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: greater now or is value greater at the end of 569 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: the season. I actually think you may actually sit on 570 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: that now. At the end of the season, when teams 571 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: are trying to reevaluate what they're gonna do at their 572 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: quarterback position, you might actually be able to get a 573 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: really good, really yeah trade dealing. So I gotta to 574 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: the season, and you get that close to the season, 575 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 1: the agent is like, no, no, no no, no, Well, I 576 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: mean if he if he signed, if he signed, then 577 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: you could do that. But this agent is not going 578 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: to do that, like he Okay, so let me let 579 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: me ask you this. If you went to his agent 580 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 1: right now and said, we're willing to pay him twenty 581 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 1: five million for a year for three years, Okay, that's cool, 582 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: but your draft pick then and better be close to that. Well, look, 583 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 1: this is why I look at it. Let's say, let's 584 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: say he's willing to take that twenty five million for 585 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 1: three years. Right way I look at that is if 586 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: I then get to the off season and I'm willing 587 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: to now trade him. How many teams that that, by 588 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: the way, they they're bringing him in to be their starter. Yeah, 589 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: they're now getting a three years starter for twenty five 590 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: million a year. That is a bargain of a deal. 591 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: Then yeah, then they're gonna have to trade a good 592 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: pick for it. Exactly. So now I've created to leverage 593 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: me to get an even better pick in the off 594 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: season or heading into the next season. You know, then 595 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 1: again he fires the agent because because if you don't 596 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: do that and then teams are still wanting you in 597 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: free agency, they're not gonna get you for eight million 598 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 1: to clip, They're gonna get you a lot more than that. Well, 599 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: but here. But here's the thing, that's all a bet. 600 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: That's all a bet right now. The values high enough 601 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: where if I go to him right now, it's that 602 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: it's that do I want to get paid now and 603 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: secure myself now? I love football, we just enjoy them now. 604 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: Controversy because the order watch quarterback. I'm getting rid of 605 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,639 Speaker 1: the quarterback controversy, Like I want the next year. He 606 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 1: doesn't need to be here, like give me another guy. 607 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: You see. That's the thing about it is if you 608 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,479 Speaker 1: if you don't do anything with Cooper Rush and he 609 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: then goes on, he doesn't you don't sign him back, 610 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: and he goes and has some success, Uh, you can 611 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: likely get your third or fourth on the on the 612 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: compensatory pick side of things. It's true. So you have 613 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: to determine if if you feel like that, Listen, I 614 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: could if he signs a big deal, I'm likely going 615 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: to get a third. If he signs a good deal, 616 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna probably get a fourth. So you got to 617 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: determine do you want to play the compensatory game to 618 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: protect yourself in case something. Now there's people that will 619 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: tweet at me and say Dack's injury prone. Yeah, Dack's 620 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: injury prone, Brian, I'm telling you, Dack's injury prone. So 621 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 1: to me, I'm kind of taking the San Francisco approach, 622 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: even though they wanted to start Trey Lance. Yeah, I'm 623 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: keeping Jimmy Garoppolo. Yeah, you know, there's a big difference 624 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: between Gimmy Garoppolo and Cooper Rush. I would rather have 625 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo because I heard somebody says, Jimmy garoppolos when 626 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: I forty something games. I mean, but and I was like, 627 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: and I was like, honestly, I don't know that there's 628 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: a big difference between those two players. You know, Stafford 629 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: tried to throw. Was it Tart the safety that dropped 630 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: the ball for the forty I mean, they catch that ball. 631 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: The forty nine ers are through, They're into the Super Bowl, 632 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: and they might beat the Bengals. You know, with Jimmy 633 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: Garoppolo at quarterback. Every time anybody says Jimmy Garoppolo, you 634 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: know I'm the Giants, I'm going, yeah, what do you 635 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: want for Jimmy Garo? Yeah, I've never thought for the season. 636 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: He's not a bad player for all the seat. I mean, yeah, 637 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: when you put things around him, when you block for him, 638 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: when you run the ball, you know he's not gonna 639 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: mess it up totally. He tried against the Cowboys though, 640 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 1: remember through a pick and he tried. He was he 641 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: was trying to get them back in the game, but 642 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: then they moved on and beat Green Bay or yeah, no, 643 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: that was a week before that week after right, yeah, 644 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: all right, real quick, let's get one the one more 645 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: before we take our final break. And I'm gonna take 646 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: this from Nick. Nick threw this out there yesterday. I 647 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: thought it was a good question. What do you think 648 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: is the bigger who's been the bigger surprise? Brett Maher, 649 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush or Tyler Smith? I mean, I think I 650 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: think we could probably sidestep Rush, don't you think, I mean, 651 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: didn't he the obvious here because we kind of talked 652 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: about it and we've I mean, when you start paying 653 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: the biggest surprise. Maher was not even on a team 654 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: in training camp, and the Cowboys had already been there, 655 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 1: done that and brought him back. And for him to 656 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: be doing what just go back to training camp. You 657 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: and I are sitting there and they're like, I bet you. 658 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: Maher makes five of his first six kicks, HiT's a 659 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: couple of fifty yards in the game winner, Like really, Like, okay, 660 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: I bet you that Cooper Rush comes in and wins 661 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: all three of his starts, win, dacks her, and creates 662 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: a quarterback controversy. You were like, what did you drink 663 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: last night? Are you drinking? Now? That's why he's not 664 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: created a quarterback controversy. But I get your point. Well, 665 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: I mean, no, his owner is, but I'm you're saying, yeah, 666 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: so kind of crawfish from that state. I think. I 667 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: think that's I think that's just the biggest one. I 668 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: think if you said I'm not trying to change the games, 669 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: the answer absolutely. I remember very clearly after the game, 670 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: everybody's surrounding Jerry Jones outside the locker room and you 671 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: hear him say he's gonna go under surgery or something, 672 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: and everybody's like, what like a panic mode, like what what? 673 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: What are we listening? And immediately, because of how that 674 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: game went down and everything that we saw there on 675 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: the offense, you immediately thought, man, that's it, like there 676 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: goes to season, there goes another year. And surely I 677 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: was one fighting or saying I want Will Greer to 678 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: go in there. Why Cooper Rush. Why he looked terrible, Like, 679 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, and I've had my roller coaster with with 680 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush, but lately mine was all the way down. 681 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm not up for Cooper Rush. So the 682 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: fact that he went in there and he's done it 683 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: so effortlessly in a sense, and so clean and just 684 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: so poised and composed, I think has been really a 685 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: huge surprise to me. I wasn't surprised about Tyler Smith 686 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: because I do have the advantage of seeing him, like 687 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: for the Draft Show and stuff like that. To Anabar's point, 688 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: that night after Tampa and Jerry's standing there giving us 689 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: like the doctor medical report he's given, and then you 690 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: know that curse is leaving the building two on crutches, 691 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: and you're thinking, hmmm, our best offensive player, our best 692 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: defensive player, of our best you know, I mean after 693 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: this game. Yeah, and you're like going, well, and fifteen 694 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: text messages or tweets at me brought us, when's Derek 695 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: going to start the Draft show? Brought us? When's you 696 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: know this is week one? Yeah. So I'm on the 697 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: roller coaster with Ambar. I'm strapped in hands up, screaming 698 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: over the hill, because I'm yelling for Will Green. I'm 699 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: doing that because in training camp, I'm not you know, 700 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: I'm watching you guys do your work at Broncos practice. 701 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 1: I'll watch you do your work at at the Charger 702 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: practices and stuff like that. I'm going, this doesn't sound 703 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: very good. And then I'm doing the games, you know, 704 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: I'm doing broadcast at games. I'm like going, throw it, 705 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: throw it, throw it, you know that. And he's holding 706 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: it and getting sacked and getting hit and you're like going, 707 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: why why? And I was I was thinking about when 708 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: am I going to start watching tape? When am I 709 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: going to start watching college tape? And it was that 710 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: I think, I think it's Cooper Rush with that. But 711 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: because I just know I knew the Mahard one, I 712 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: give the organization credit on that one, because that, to 713 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: me is so cowboy front office, take out, take out, 714 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: Cooper Rushing. I'm putting nor Brown in and I'll play 715 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: the game. So Brown, no biggest surprise, No Brown Maha 716 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: or Tyler Smith Maha, no all problem for me. I mean, 717 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: I was ready to cut the guy it already too, 718 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: like I'm because he's here so long, you tend to 719 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: forget about him. He shows some things last year with 720 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: Dak and all that, but even then, could he for me, 721 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 1: could he step up to that role? I really didn't. 722 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: I mean, we've seen him make some really good catches 723 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: at times, I would think he was des Brian when 724 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: that had just left. You would watch him from the 725 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: press box and then you're like, oh, is that that's 726 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: Oh no, that's no brow. But it was. I just 727 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: didn't see him being so good as he's being so fun. 728 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 1: But you see it every year training camp. Yeah, it's 729 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: like we call it all a star Like every time 730 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: would go need ten names from you, let's rate him 731 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,439 Speaker 1: one to ten. Who's had the best camp? Noah Brown 732 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: number four, that's always number four. Happened last year team 733 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 1: special teams. Yeah, It's like the thing with Cedric Wilson. 734 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,800 Speaker 1: They were trying Noah Brown and then all of sudden, 735 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: circ Wilson says, I'm gonna go get paid from the Dolphins. 736 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 1: I don't know what you're doing, you know, Okay, I'm 737 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: gonna get a one year deal. Yeah. I think it's 738 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: the old Brown for me. I mean, Tyler Smith's been 739 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: I mean just the fact that he's moved around and 740 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: didn't even practice at left tackle. That's a that's amazing too. 741 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 1: All of it's amazing. Yeah. The only thing that's not 742 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: amazing their first round offensive linemen or money. That's the thing. 743 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,959 Speaker 1: Every time they trapped the first out of linement, that 744 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 1: that one they missed on any of them. I'm trying 745 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: to think they missed on him. They know they haven't, 746 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: and there are some missises. Don't get it wrong. They 747 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 1: were in the second round. I'm saying. I'm saying throughout 748 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: the league to look at first round offensive linst Talk 749 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: to the Giants about that. Yeah, sometimes you picked in 750 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: the late late first round in twenties and nothing to guarantee. 751 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: So I mean he's been very impressive. Yeah, yeah, no 752 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:39,839 Speaker 1: doubt about it. All Right, we're gonna take our final break. 753 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: We'll come back. We got about five minutes. Bryan's gonna 754 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: rush through this game. Okay, maybe maybe we say for 755 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: mart that might be a good idea, because I do 756 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: have a couple more questions. Maybe we'll call back, we'll 757 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 1: figure it all out. We'll be right back, Dallas, Coboys 758 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: that come radio.

I do 807 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 1: have one more question for you guys though, in our 808 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: quarter review, Uh, tell me what was the best performance 809 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,439 Speaker 1: from an individual player so far? On the first four games, 810 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: we've got ten Clarins versus the Giants, he had six 811 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: tackles and three we have two. Huh can you kill 812 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: coach in there too? Yeah, anybody, I'm gonna give you 813 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: my three and if you got one, you want to 814 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:48,359 Speaker 1: go and you say, this is my answer you that's 815 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: more than okay? Okay. Michael Parsons versus Cincinnati, he had 816 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: four tackles and two sacks in that game. Noah Brown 817 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,479 Speaker 1: versus Cincinnati had five catches for ninety one yards and 818 00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: a touchdown. Where do you think at the best perform 819 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: Warman so far this season the first four games. For me, 820 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: it's Mike against Cincinnati. It's one of the best performances 821 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: I've seen any defensive player have since I've covered this team. 822 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: So Mica against Cincinnati, I thought is completely a game wrecker. Yeah, 823 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 1: and it didn't show up in the stat sheet all 824 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 1: the time. If you watched the game, you know, people 825 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 1: were like, where was he that good? I'm like, oh, 826 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I thought you watched the game. Yeah, because 827 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: if you did, he was. If you didn't watch the 828 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: game and really focus on the second half, you had 829 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: been like, he was amazing. That's my pick. That's a 830 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: tough one because I think everything comes down to Micah 831 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: Parsons because everything comes out to what the defense is doing, 832 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 1: and what the defense is doing realizes on what Mica 833 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 1: Parsons is doing. So like initially I'm thinking, Okay, Noah 834 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: Brown because the offense like wasn't you know you need 835 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: the offense to be able to get you somewhere too, 836 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 1: But the only reason the offense has been able to 837 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: stay in games is because of the defense. So it's 838 00:39:55,600 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: just automatically Mica Parsons one thousand percent said, I do 839 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 1: like the other options, but I don't think they're that 840 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: close to him, right, right, man? I go back to 841 00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: that Week two matchup against Cincinnati, and it's Noah Brown. 842 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: Noah Brown had every he was five for five on 843 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: targets and catches. Go back and look at every one 844 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,800 Speaker 1: of those catches and how important they were third down catches, 845 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: fourth down catches, deflected ball catch to keep a drive 846 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 1: going to go for the game winning field goal. His 847 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: it was. It came out too and I looked at 848 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 1: the numbers. It was eighteen yards or reception in that game. 849 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 1: Played eighty five percent of the snaps in that game too. 850 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: If you don't have Noah Brown on the field. And 851 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: I love Michael Parsons usually say that when you're trying 852 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 1: to sell something. But you love what another guy did 853 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: and Parsons, but you expect that from Parsons, you really do. 854 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 1: You expect Parsons to go out there and just wreck shop, 855 00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: as we like to say. But Noah Brown in that game, 856 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 1: those five receptions, I would I would beg you to 857 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 1: find a bigger, more clutch game from a Cowboy player 858 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 1: in a while then, But you know what I've been wondering, um, 859 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: because last game I saw Mica I just a little 860 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: kind of tied for a little bit. I'm not saying, 861 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: and hopefully nothing happens to him, But I've been wondering. 862 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,240 Speaker 1: We do give den Quinn so much, so much praise 863 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 1: into what he's doing with all the talent on the 864 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,799 Speaker 1: defense and all that, But how do you think this 865 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 1: offense would, sorry defense would actually look without a Mica parton. 866 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm glad because I'm glad you did that because I 867 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,479 Speaker 1: was driving in on the way and I thought, could 868 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 1: you survive these games without Micah Parsons? I don't think so. 869 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 1: I don't think so. No, I think I think you 870 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 1: hit Michael Parsons most valuable player on this team. Yes, 871 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: it's not even question because once again, once again, the 872 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,399 Speaker 1: only reason your quarterback has been able to win these 873 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 1: games is because he doesn't have to score a ton 874 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 1: of points to do it. That's because the defense is 875 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 1: holding these teams to very very small numbers. That doesn't 876 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,240 Speaker 1: happen without Michael Parts. I said that last year, doesn't. 877 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: After Thanksgiving, I remember telling Derek the press counts and 878 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 1: press box. I think Michael Parsons is the best player 879 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,080 Speaker 1: on this team. If you have him, you have a shot. 880 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,279 Speaker 1: And I believe it even more now because that's just 881 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 1: how more versatile he is he's shown. Do you think 882 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 1: about Queen can manage to make something out of the defense. No, no, no, 883 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: no no no, I'm not saying that, Like Dan can 884 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 1: still get a good defense out there and get him 885 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 1: to play good for a game or two. But point back, 886 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: that's my point. You better score some points. Yeah, I 887 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 1: think about last year. Yea, even though Michael had a 888 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: good year last year, I think he's been more impressive 889 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: this year than last year because basically they've decided. Have 890 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 1: you seen him line up at linebacker much? It's because 891 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: they're like, this guy's a pass rusher. He's going to 892 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: get the quarterback almost every place. I think they got 893 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: better players today than they did last year. Yeah, I agree, Yeah, 894 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 1: I agree, And so it's a better defense man. I 895 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: would knock on wood. I would never want to weather 896 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: that storm. But I have that much faith in Dan Quinn. 897 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: I have that much faith that. But but okay, I 898 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 1: get but I get my I get my quarterback back, right, 899 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean that's that's I have to have 900 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: my quarterback to be able to do to survive. Wait, 901 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean this guy's going. I don't 902 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 1: think they lose Michael Parsons and win three straight. Let's 903 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 1: be but let's be honest. Let's be honest. Looks like 904 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: he looks is because he only has to make sure 905 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't mess it up and he's making a few 906 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 1: throws a game to get you. But without Mica, you 907 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: need more than I'm I'm on your side. Literally, like 908 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 1: I'm saying, that's you know, that's what I'm saying. I'm like, 909 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't think I think Mica Partson is more valuable 910 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,800 Speaker 1: because if they lose him, I don't think that vanders 911 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 1: just steps into the Cooper rest roll and they win 912 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 1: three straight and and we're talking about what do you 913 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: do with him? Do you resign Vander No? No, I 914 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 1: think losing Michael part I said it before the season started. 915 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: If Dak and Micah Parsons both play every game this year, 916 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: year they will be in the super Bowl. Well, well 917 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 1: I don't have to, that's already done. But I'm just saying, 918 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 1: but it really is more Micah Parsons. Yeah, I just 919 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,320 Speaker 1: I just don't see. I'm glad you asked that question 920 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 1: because I was thinking about it. I really was. Dan 921 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: Quinn is a phenomenal, phenomenal coach in mine all to 922 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: be on the defensive staff. Yeah, you saw the difference 923 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: when he came in here versus the year before of 924 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: how much of a difference he makes with this defense. 925 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 1: Like it's yeah, I mean it's a big difference. This 926 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,720 Speaker 1: guy knows what he's doing. No, it's not a button. 927 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: He is a phenomenal defensive coordinator and at the end 928 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 1: of the day, like I trust that he's gonna make 929 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 1: this defense play good football. Yeah, without Bika Parsons, can 930 00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 1: you be great? That's the point. And you gotta be 931 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: great right now if you don't have your quarterback, I 932 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 1: just don't know. No, no, no, you gotta be great anyways, 933 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 1: because I mean, I'm sorry. I mean, Dak needs some help, 934 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: and he need he needs help. They needed to be 935 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,879 Speaker 1: great against Tampa Bay. That's nice to say, but last 936 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 1: year he won a ton of games with a good defense. 937 00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: That wasn't a great defense last year, and he won 938 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 1: a ton of those games. Where get you that? No plays, 939 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:04,839 Speaker 1: we're not talking about the playoffs we're talk about getting 940 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 1: through the season. I'm on your side. They got as 941 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,760 Speaker 1: a team, not just Dak. As a team, they needed 942 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 1: to be more competitive against the better teams. It wasn't 943 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: just Dak, it was the whole team defense too. So 944 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 1: that's you know, they had a favorable schedule last year 945 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 1: and it played out and they worked. It worked well 946 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: for them. This year not so much. I mean they 947 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 1: have to play first play schedule, and first play schedule 948 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 1: is more than it was last year or a a few 949 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,840 Speaker 1: years ago, because you play seventeen games. Now, you played Cincinnati. 950 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 1: Now you play three for three winners, three extra number 951 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 1: one teams from the year before. And so that's something 952 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 1: the Eagles don't have this year. I may have it 953 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: the next year, but they don't have it. So they've 954 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 1: already played. They played. Obviously the Rams would be that 955 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: that they played this week. Who are the other team? 956 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:56,239 Speaker 1: Cincinnati would be because yes, yes, you already hit that 957 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: that one game you won it. Yeah, damn you had 958 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 1: Tampa you won, I mean you lost that one. Yeah, 959 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 1: and now you got the Rams coming up. Those they 960 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 1: got one more. Right, Well, you play the NFC, you know, 961 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,439 Speaker 1: of those three games out of the difference makers. Yeah, 962 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 1: you've you're one in one right now. Yeah. Yeah, And 963 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: the Eagles are playing the number two teams they got 964 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 1: and they got one more win than you do, right, 965 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 1: and that maybe that's the difference, right. All right, We 966 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,399 Speaker 1: appreciate you guys. You back tomorrow. We're gonna jump into 967 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: the Rams.
