Speaker 1: Season eighteen, Episode number fifty seven. Welcome to the latest

9
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: edition of The Break. We're presented by Miller Lite, the

10
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: only beer of the Dallas Cowboys, and we're talking about

11
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: the Cowboys win. They beat the Detroit Lions twenty four

12
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: to six, and it was a game that was pretty tight.

13
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: The score doesn't, I don't think, necessarily reflect just how

14
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: tight the game was throughout most of the game, but

15
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 1: Cowboys do pull away at the end and make it

16
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 1: a big win for them. Let's start first with stories

17
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: of the game. What's the story of the game? Nick,

18
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: I think the story of the game is that and

19
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: I this is what I wrote. So I think that

20
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: Dak has a new team around him that he's not

21
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: used to, and I think he had to play that way.

22
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: This is the first time that he's able to play

23
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: with a defense that will carry them when when they're

24
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: not very good, and so I thought he stated, the

25
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: course did a good job kept it rolling until it

26
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: was time, you know, to to score some points there

27
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: at the end. But not all games are going to

28
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: be that way. But I thought that once again, this

29
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: defense carried him along and he didn't make the mistakes.

30
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: He didn't make mistakes and just allowed the game to

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: flow to him. And I think this is going to

32
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: be the recipe for this team moving forward until they

33
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: get better on offense, which probably won't be you know,

34
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: this year. So I thought it was it was a

35
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: good win for him and good win, you know, to

36
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: get back into it. But the defense just carried him through.

37
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: I mean, that seems pretty healthy. He didn't seem like

38
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: the thumb was an issue at all. He said it

39
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: after the press conference that it didn't bother him or

40
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: hurt him in any way. It wasn't even something that

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: came into thought while playing. So it was just good.

42
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: I know, he didn't have a good first half of

43
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: the game, and typically that tends to for it to

44
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: be that way. Like he always shows up in the

45
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: second half of games, and he did just that. I

46
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: was I like the way that he was able to

47
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: adjust some things a play calling and kind of changed

48
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: a little bit as well. So I'm just looking forward

49
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: to what this team is actually gonna look like in

50
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: the next weeks, next week, after they get through the

51
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: buy and all that, when they come back just the

52
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: second half of the year of the season. I mean,

53
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,119
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see what the team just overall looks

54
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: like with him back in the mix and then scoring touchdowns.

55
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: So that's something we're not being used to see in

56
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: throughout this year so far, it's just those touchdown so

57
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: we were able to tell these get two with Zeke

58
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: running the ball. Yeah, he didn't get to really practice

59
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: all that much. They didn't practice at all. Mike McCarthy's

60
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: big thing is about trying to keep his team as

61
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: healthy as possible, and so they really didn't have any

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: real practices. You know, they got out and throw the

63
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: ball around against air, like Mike was talking about, but

64
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: you know, when they were coming off the Sunday night

65
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,399
Speaker 1: game Monday, didn't do anything. Helmets and T shirts all week.

66
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: The first real, first real action he had was actually

67
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 1: really playing in that game where things were flying around

68
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: and all that. So I thought he was a little bit,

69
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: you know, trying to maybe do a little bit too

70
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: much early on some things. But overall though they scored

71
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: that touchdown before half, you know, that's a different game.

72
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: That's a second they come out in the second half.

73
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: You know, they get the turnover, and now you see

74
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: what happens when this football team when defensively teams have

75
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: to throw the ball. When teams have to throw the ball,

76
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: they can get after him and they've got some players.

77
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: That play was some great determination. Will you look at

78
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: what Michael Parsons did to chase that tight end down

79
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: on that screen and knock that you know, knock him

80
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: out of bounced there or knee down there at the

81
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: one and then the very next play the effort of Lawrence.

82
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: You're gonna win a lot of games playing with guys

83
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: like that, and despite of what the offense might do.

84
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Dak was ten of eleven in

85
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: the second half throwing the ball. You know, I mean

86
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: it's they're going to have some busts up front. They're

87
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 1: not always going to get open on the outside. You know,

88
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: things are going to happen to them. Offensively, they kind

89
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: of stop them along the way. But this defense is

90
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: really your calling card right now and the way that

91
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: they're playing the effort. But man, if they get people

92
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: into situation where they have to throw the ball, their

93
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 1: pass rush is really really good. They turn over. They

94
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: get people to turn the ball over, and you know

95
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: that's going to be the recipe for them. And they're

96
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: good enough on special teams, the kicker, the punt returner,

97
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: whenever they get those opportunities, they're going to do good things.

98
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 1: So it's a shame that they had a big punt

99
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: return and didn't get any points out of that, but

100
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 1: hopefully that's something that they can continue to kind of

101
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: work on here in the future. You mentioned those two

102
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: plays there. I guess it was in the third quarter

103
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: or maybe in the fourth quarter where you had the

104
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons rundown right tackle him there and then obviously

105
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 1: the subsequent play, so the next play where they were

106
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: able to create the turnover. What do you guys think

107
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: of that play? When Wright got taken down, do you

108
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: think he was in the end zone or he was down?

109
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: He was down? Now the end zone copy shows knee

110
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: down is what it is. And I think Calvin Watkins

111
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: actually tweeted a picture this morning of a close up

112
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: maybe the pylon cam where knee was down before he

113
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: was able to reach out there. I would have reviewed it.

114
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 1: I mean, if I was Dan Campbell, I would have

115
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: thrown the flag there because they definitely missed the spot.

116
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: I think he I think he would have won the challenge, honestly.

117
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 1: I think I think if you challenged the spot, you

118
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: don't challenge the touchdown, you challenge the spot. I think

119
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 1: you would have won the challenge. So you're saying it

120
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: may not have been a touchdown, but the spot would

121
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: have been different. Yeah, and then where he got hit

122
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: in the backfield, you know, maybe maybe he's already in

123
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: the end zone at that point, because that spot was

124
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: ridiculous for where the ball actually because it was really

125
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,239
Speaker 1: really close for being a touchdown. So I think if

126
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: you have to word it that way, because if you say, hey,

127
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm challenging I think he scored, now he didn't score,

128
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: you lose the challenge. But if you challenge throw it

129
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 1: and say your spot is off big time, like we

130
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: should be nosed up on the line there. I think

131
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: they would move it. I think he wins the challenge

132
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: and then yeah, it's good Tack. I had never thought

133
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: about it from next I thought, you have to word

134
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: it though way that way. I remember chan Gaily one time.

135
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: That happened to them on a spot thing. You have

136
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: to say that to the to the officially, you have

137
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: to tell him what you want them to look for. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

138
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: but yeah, you know, it's just just back to back plays,

139
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, for you know, for him, I mean, Parsons's

140
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: five yards I mean he's up to field and he's

141
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: and literally, you know, the catch is made and now

142
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: he's five yards seven maybe six yards behind, and he

143
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 1: just goes flying through the defense to run run the

144
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: tight end down and to make that play. And then

145
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: the very next play Tank does like he's it's like

146
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: he's pinballing off guys. You know, he's swimming through tight ends,

147
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: blocks and stuff like that, and his elbow knocks the

148
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: ball loose and and then happen you know, the you know,

149
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: bars just waiting for it right there. They're all playing scheme.

150
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: How many times we've seen ball out he ends up

151
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: in the end zone and the lineman falls on or

152
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: something like that. I mean, everybody was where they needed

153
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: to be to make that play and that's why you

154
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: keep playing. I mean, Michael Parsons just showed you. It

155
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: might be one of the best plays he's ever made.

156
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: You can talk about sacks and things that he's done

157
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: in his short career with the Dallas Cowboys. That might

158
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: be when they when they send him to Canton, that

159
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: might be the play that they show of him. And

160
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: how he saved He saved you a touchdown. He saved

161
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: you a touchdown right there. We talked about it last week.

162
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: I think Mike McCarthy mentioned in his press conference that

163
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn had some self scouting type meeting with Michael Parsons,

164
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: and Mica talked about it after the game yesterday and

165
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: he was talking about how he said, you know, one

166
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: thing that DQ told him was using your speed to

167
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: make plays out down the field. That's your superpower. If

168
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: you're not doing that, you're not using your superpower. That's

169
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: how he put it, and that play was exactly that

170
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: it was. You saw him literally run by Vanderesh because

171
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: Vanderes was closer to the play that he was up.

172
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: He just literally just ran by him, getting blocked pretty good. Yeah,

173
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: but I'm saying at one point he was running and

174
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: you saw him just kind of go past him. And

175
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: the point was, like, Mica just has this rare ability

176
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: of size, speed, all the things that you kind of

177
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: put together in a player, and he can do some

178
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,599
Speaker 1: remarkable things if he's willing to do those things. And

179
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 1: another thing about that too that he has is at

180
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: that point in the game, he has zero sacks. Yeah,

181
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: and he had zero sax until the very last drive

182
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: the game. Um, that pisses him off, Like he plays

183
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: piss And we talked about this last week. I think

184
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 1: he when he's frustrated, he's out of his game. Right

185
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: when he's pissed, watch out. Yeah, that's he's angry lion

186
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: at that point. Penny souled. Penny souled at a nice

187
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: job blocking him yesterday. That he's a very talented tackle

188
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: from Oregon. He's very highly talented, maybe one of the

189
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 1: best tackles in the draft. He's going to be a

190
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: good one for a long time. I know he struggled

191
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: with some injuries and stuff, but he did. He did

192
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: a really good job in that football game that wasn't

193
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,599
Speaker 1: like you, Micah can take advantage of some of some blockers.

194
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: But you know, you get those guys that they're kind

195
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: of evenly matched there. That's that's kind of a one

196
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: on one thing. Right, Was that Bar's best game or

197
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 1: or up there? I think there was some times there

198
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: was when you watched him play, he Bar, to me

199
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: is a fifty fifty player. There's times where he gets

200
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: the ball. When they went on a crossing route and

201
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 1: Hackinson caught a ball in the flat that was a

202
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: waggle and it's Bars guy and he just he's like

203
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: staring at the quarterback with the titing going by him

204
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: and that's this guy, and it just and it's a

205
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: big play. I mean, you know, it's it's one of

206
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: those things you look up. But there was a couple

207
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: of tackles that he was able to make. I just

208
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: feel like that there's there's times where he doesn't react.

209
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: They used him as a blitzer in this game a

210
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: little bit yesterday, and it just it wasn't what we've

211
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: seen from him from a guy that's had a pretty

212
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: good career doing that. You know, who else is a

213
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: fifty fifty player and it was probably skipping around your

214
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 1: offensive line. But Terrence Steele like he had some issues

215
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: in the passing. You know, like you said pass block,

216
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: I mean Aidan Hutchinson man run blocking. I mean he's

217
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: just walls off the him and he's a really good

218
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,319
Speaker 1: athlete with that him when they when they blocked d Yeah,

219
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 1: when him and when Martin and Steele get together like that,

220
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: they can really run block. The first thing was Steele's

221
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: played really well as a pass blocker since the first week.

222
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: But you know on that first sack that they gave up.

223
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: If not Tyler Smith, it was gonna be Terrence Steele

224
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 1: Skoy different. You know What's like, what's really the difference there?

225
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 1: Because in my mind, I just feel like sometimes like

226
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: blocking for a run game and like a run play

227
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: seems harder than having to block for a passing play.

228
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 1: The way that they block, it's really convenient for him,

229
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: or it lends to his skill set because it's movement,

230
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 1: it's being an athlete, it's you know, when he has

231
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: to pass block, it's about power and kind of holding on,

232
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,119
Speaker 1: you know, and being in position when he run blocks.

233
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: He's got a good feel for how to work with

234
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: Martin next to him and then get off on the

235
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: next guy or wheel himself to get to make the

236
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: defender have to run over him to get to the football.

237
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: So he plays with much better position as a run

238
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: blocker because of how he moves as opposed to how

239
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: he passed blocks. He's still not a bad pass blocker,

240
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 1: but you see the things when they get this, when

241
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: they get the shoulder on him sometimes tis he can't

242
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: get over and stop somebody from just running up the field.

243
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: And think about it like this too. Amber When you're

244
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: when you're pass blocking, you're having to react to the

245
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: other guy, so you're you're taking your steps and then

246
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: literally you're like, Okay, what is he gonna do? Is

247
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: he gonna come out with your power? Is he gonna

248
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: use a move? Is he gonna spin? Like you're having

249
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: to react when it's run. It's like, Okay, I know

250
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: where I need to move this guy, so I'm gonna

251
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: get engaged with him and I'm trying to move him.

252
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: So you can be on the offensive because you now

253
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: know exactly what you're trying to do rather than having

254
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: to react to what he's doing. That's why I think

255
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 1: it's harder a lot of times for and I think

256
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,079
Speaker 1: offensive lineman personally, you listen to them talk a lot

257
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: of them. I think prefer run blocking because they can

258
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: go on the offensive. They can say, they can dictate

259
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: to the other person, I don't care what you're trying

260
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:47,439
Speaker 1: to do. I know what I'm trying to do, and

261
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna move you from point A to point B,

262
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: as opposed to I have to just kind of figure

263
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: out what you're doing and then react to that. So

264
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: I think that's why run blocking is a little a

265
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: little easier. All right, um, let's talk about about Dak

266
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: prescott um yesterday. It's interesting because if you watch the game,

267
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: there's probably more reason for you to be concerned than

268
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: if you just look at his stat line. His stat

269
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 1: line yesterday, nineteen to twenty five. That's a seventy six

270
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: percent completion rate, really good, two hundred and seven yards,

271
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: one touchdowns, no turnovers, one hundred and thirteen point two rating.

272
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: You look at that and you say, he did his job.

273
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: He did a really good job yesterday. But you watched

274
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: the game and there were moments where, oh wow, why

275
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: did he throw it into that? Oh man, he threw

276
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: it into some coverage there he got got away with one.

277
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: What did you guys think as you put all that together.

278
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: What did you think of his performance yesterday? You know,

279
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: I thought he was he was okay. I mean it

280
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,959
Speaker 1: was it was okay early on. He just he had

281
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 1: like like Brian said, I mean, obviously you're going to

282
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: be rusty because he you know, he didn't even get

283
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: to get the flow back into of the week. But yeah,

284
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: he did some things that we saw in that Tampa

285
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,319
Speaker 1: game too, where he throwing it in there when you

286
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 1: don't really need to. One time he got away with it.

287
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: He threw a past and the CD made a really

288
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: nice catch on there. Um. But you know, I think

289
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: he's still having to learn how this this team works.

290
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: Like you don't have to do everything. Two or three

291
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: years ago, he had to do everything. He the offense

292
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 1: had to do everything. You don't have to do that

293
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: right now. So I think he's going to continue to

294
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: get better and better. I think they'll finish off a

295
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: couple of drives and and this is a recipe for

296
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: a team that that can have success. I mean, like

297
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: you look at this schedule and you're going to be

298
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: able to really to win some games and and and

299
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: and maybe blow him out. But he's just gotta, you know,

300
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: keep it going. And don't f it up like that's

301
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: that's that's that's the model right now. And he's not

302
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: used to that, but that's what it is. Just don't

303
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: mess it up. Just keep playing punt. You saw. I'm sorry,

304
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: but you saw that field goal. I think that you

305
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: see usually they would have gone for it down there,

306
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: but they're like, you know what, take the point, Take

307
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: the point, right, And I was fine with that too,

308
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: because just this points points points points. It'll add up

309
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 1: because this team's not given up much. Yeah, there were

310
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: you know with Dak and I. You gotta remember, and

311
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: I mentioned it last week too, he didn't have a preseason.

312
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: He just played one game all seasons. So keeping that

313
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: in mind, okay, you gotta expect that now he had

314
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: been out what was it a total of six weeks, Yeah,

315
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: it was five weeks, five week weeks. The point is

316
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: he hasn't been out there, so of course you're gonna

317
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: get some rusts. He's gonna be rusty and he has

318
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: to go out there get the field. I thought he

319
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: did a really good job in the second half of

320
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: the game, but there were moments that I also thought

321
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: he he had some risky throws in there. There were

322
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: times where you could look at Michael gallups Cede Land.

323
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: They had two or even three defenders at times, and

324
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: he's throwing the ball that could have easily been intercepted.

325
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: I mean that was Those were not even fifty fifty balls,

326
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: So moments like that that he could have been bad.

327
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: It wasn't even those were even catches. But just like Nix,

328
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: it just play it safe, get back in the groove,

329
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: I thought even I think it was in the second

330
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: half where he they were in the red zone and

331
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: he kind of took off on his feet. He didn't

332
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: gain much, but just seeing him doing that, Yeah, gives

333
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: me the belief that, Okay, he has his feet where

334
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: he feels comfortable. That is something that he hasn't lost.

335
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 1: We most I'm thinking we're gonna see more of that

336
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: as the season goes. And he just think I think

337
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: he did a nice job taken into consideration everything that

338
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: has happened till this point. He got fooled on that pass.

339
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: It almost got intercepted. Coverage, Yeah, the one Kirby Joseph

340
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: the safety. They're playing a single high look with that

341
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: safety in the middle of the field, and then and

342
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 1: Joseph just they rotate him and he goes straight back

343
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: into two and I think he thought he had a shot.

344
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: I think he when he when he saw the initial read,

345
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: he's thinking, single high, I could fit it. I got lamb,

346
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: it's gonna run the route, and all of a sudden

347
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: that that safety Joseph that was down went back and

348
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: he and it's like the next thing, you know, now

349
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a wait a minute, that

350
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: guy's not where I thought he was gonna be. So

351
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,439
Speaker 1: that particular time, I felt like that, like you know,

352
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: sometimes quarterbacks get fooled. Sometimes they see something they think, okay,

353
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: single high, I could fit it on the hash right

354
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: there before that safety gets over. But then you got

355
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: the drop safety. That kind of gave him a little

356
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: bit of a problem there the first pass of the game,

357
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 1: and that was one of those times where you're thinking.

358
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 1: He even said he felt like that he was going

359
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: to run and then he just kind of just really

360
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: didn't make a great throw. I mean it, you know,

361
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where he could have led.

362
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: He could have just tooked the ball and fired it

363
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: to Noah Brown in it and just carried Noah Brown

364
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: to the sidelines, and it would have been a completion,

365
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 1: much like what the lines did in their first play

366
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: of the game, the same kind of throw out front.

367
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: You know, it's a big play up the sidelines. So

368
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: he got it, got caught in no man's land there,

369
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: just fired the ball of the outside. There was there

370
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: was a play that they got sacked on on the

371
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 1: third and two where he was in a situation where

372
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 1: they had no they had they ran CD from the

373
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 1: slot on the out and then Noah Brown curl behind him.

374
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: He's looking at Noah Brown the whole time, or I

375
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: think the first read was the lamb Brown and then

376
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: he tries to come back inside. So you can't, Bro,

377
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 1: you gotta just you see it. You see where that's

378
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: gonna happen. There's there's space there, there's three lines. There's

379
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 1: space to throw the ball in the third and two.

380
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 1: So when he's bad, it's usually because he's not reading

381
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: it the right way. Yeah, that's when Dak struggles. When

382
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, I think I could throw this ball.

383
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 1: Even said, oh my thumb was feeling good and I

384
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: thought I could throw it all the way down the field.

385
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: You're like, okay, cool, you're great, Just don't throw an interception.

386
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: But when Dak is not at his appolute best is

387
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: when he doesn't see it cleanly. And that third two

388
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: he could have fired the ball to Noah Brown and

389
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a first down, you keep it going.

390
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: Instead he gets sacked, you know, I mean steel strange,

391
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: Steel gets knocked back. They have problems and all that,

392
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: you know. So, yeah, he had three different reads, but

393
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: he didn't get the right He went from the first

394
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: read and said, Okay, that's not gonna work. Second read, boom,

395
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: just fire the ball because the lions were all around

396
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 1: where it was, there was nothing keeping him. But but

397
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 1: he got a flash because they got a flash off

398
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,919
Speaker 1: the edge because of what happened was steel. So I

399
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: think when Dak's bad, it's reading, that's the thing. I

400
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: think that that the most problems. And also a field too,

401
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 1: like you can't take a sack right there. Yeah you're

402
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: at you're in field goal range. You know points you

403
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: need them, and that that that was one of those

404
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: were you know, you just can't. You have to get

405
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 1: rid of the football quicker than that. Because the sa

406
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 1: I mean, they would have kicked the field goal. I

407
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: think now I'm not sure he would have made it,

408
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: but you know, he's been good enough where you do

409
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 1: kick it there. He still could have kicked the field goal,

410
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: you know, at that point, like it was going to

411
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 1: be a sixty yard he still could have done it,

412
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: but you know you don't. Why give them the ball

413
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: to do that? You know, Yeah, that's where he misses

414
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 1: those high fifties. Punt it, keep it down there. That's

415
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: a negative quarterback play that doesn't show up in the

416
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 1: stat sheet, is what that is. Because I just he

417
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,719
Speaker 1: just can't take that set. I think there's things that

418
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: when you play, you know, he's a seven year vet.

419
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: I just think if you go back and look at

420
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: all of Dak's really bad plays in his career, he

421
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 1: would go what was he looking at? What was he

422
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: looking at? But there was plenty of times where he

423
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 1: saw the right things. He saw development, the routes that

424
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: he hit with Scholtz, the spot routes and stuff like that.

425
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 1: He threw some good balls, no question. It's when he

426
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: tries those you only live once type of throws and

427
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: stuff like that, you're kind of thinking, man, did he

428
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 1: not see that safety? Did he not see that guy?

429
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: Did he not see that curl where he could have

430
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: thrown the ball and then he tries to come back.

431
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: It's I think those are the things that kind of

432
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: get back in a little bit of trouble. All Right,

433
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 1: we gonna suck our first break. We'll come back. We'll

Speaker 1: We're talking about the Cowboys big win over the Detroit

483
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: Lines twenty four to six. This segment brought to you

484
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 1: by blockchain dot Com. Let's talk about Zeke and Tony Pollard.

485
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 1: Zeke carries the ball fifteen times for fifty seven yards

486
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: three point eight average, two touchdowns. Tony Pollard also carries

487
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: it for twelve times for eighty three yards six point

488
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 1: nine average. He also adds two receptions for twenty six yards.

489
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: Talk to me about the running backs and how they're

490
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: using them. From the standpoint of the mix between the two,

491
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,439
Speaker 1: it looks perfect. That's what they want, right I know,

492
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: running backs coach Skip Pete, that's exactly what he wants.

493
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 1: Right there is is really close. Fifteen carries for Zeke

494
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 1: doing a lot of the dirty work. I thought, honestly,

495
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: I thought down there in the goal line and they

496
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 1: I don't think they use Zeke enough actually on third

497
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: and one and even something down in the goal line

498
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: that they kept it with Pollard a little bit there.

499
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: There's a couple of times where I thought they could

500
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: have gone more with Zeke. But you know it's that

501
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: was a thunder and lightning type approach right there. You

502
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: see if really good breakaway runs by Pollard, Zeke doing

503
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff around the goal line. You know,

504
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: I think Pollard probably could have scored that last touchdown,

505
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: but you know that's not going to come back and

506
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: not thought a touchdown here, So real quick, I will

507
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: I will mention you mentioned the goal line. One of

508
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: the things they're doing down the goal line I thought

509
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: was interesting is they're using that twenty three personnel. Yeah,

510
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: and they'll actually line up Poller on the wing and

511
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: then bring him in motion. So what it does it

512
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: forces the defense to go wide. They have to respect

513
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: the fact that he has the speed and if they

514
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 1: turn around hand it to him he has he's gonna

515
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: go around that corner. That exactly. That opens up some

516
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: stuff up the middle. So I think that was something

517
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: that was really interesting they did yesterday. Yeah, they got

518
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: it back that's carrying the ball twenty seven times for

519
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 1: one hundred forty two yards at five point two yards

520
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,719
Speaker 1: an average. That's what they're doing, right, Yeah. Yeah, they

521
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: got one back that's really really physical and one back

522
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: that's really really fast, and they're playing him the same way.

523
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: That's what you gotta do without just look at these guys.

524
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: It's the same guy. Don't look him at don't don't

525
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 1: look at it as as Ladanian, Tom Woodson or Emmett Smith.

526
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: Look at him as one guy, two bodies. So you

527
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: tell me, I'll take twenty seven carries, I'll take one

528
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: hundred and forty two yards. I'll take a five point

529
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 1: two yard per average per carry. Just it doesn't matter,

530
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter who gets to carry. Just give me

531
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: the combination of those two guys very similar, once powerful,

532
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: once really quick. You know this, give me that guy.

533
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 1: And the best part about that is is on Monday,

534
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 1: you don't have a guy that's had twenty seven carries, right,

535
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 1: you don't have that, even though you're getting that production,

536
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: you don't have the guy that's the wear and tear

537
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: that needs something else because he had twenty seven carries.

538
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: So that's even better if you can figure that. I'll

539
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,719
Speaker 1: say this though, on the third and one runs, I

540
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 1: think they were trying to I said this on the

541
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 1: radio on the post game. I think they're trying to

542
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 1: break some tendencies here. I think there. I think because

543
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: when you get Zeke and pollowed in the backfield and

544
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: I formation stuff, like one hundred percent of the time

545
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: it was it was Zeke, Zeke carry, Zeke carry, Zeke

546
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: carry that what they did was they said, all right,

547
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna fake Zeke carry and go for the flip.

548
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: The Lions played it really really well on the outside.

549
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Jeff Akuda, I mean he played

550
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: like a down linebacker, kind of like what curse and

551
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: those guys played several times he was the unblocked guy

552
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: and that's why he ended up with fifteen tackles. But

553
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: they did a great job. I think there really were

554
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 1: trying to break a tendency there with their inside runs,

555
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: inside runs, inside runs on throw down. They said, let's

556
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 1: see if we could catch him plane like a crash

557
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 1: defense and flip the ball and get into the edge

558
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 1: lines just guessed right with you. I absolutely love how

559
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: they ran the ball with the two of them. I

560
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: think this was exactly the type of game that you

561
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: know when you keep asking about oh more Tony Polar, More,

562
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: Tony Polar. This is the exactly like the perfect combination

563
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: that you can get from both players. They were exactly

564
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 1: like doing what they're best at. You get Zeke doing

565
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 1: the heavy work. Dirty were going there and just smashing

566
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 1: it and going through and getting in the extra yards.

567
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: And then you get ze I mean Tony Pollar, just

568
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 1: like Brian said, the speed getting out those dynamic plays.

569
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: So the combination of the two of them was really

570
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 1: really great to see. And I was gonna, I was

571
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: gonna make a point and I completely got thrown off

572
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 1: with something that you were saying, Brian, And now I

573
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: can't remember but oh my god, I'll circle back when

574
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: I remember. But even and Dad mentioned this after the game.

575
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: He was talking about the time that he spent just

576
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 1: watching from the sideline, how much he realizes because it's

577
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: a thing you see it on the film and all that,

578
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 1: but it's another one. You're seeing the game live, watching

579
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: from the sideline, realizing what you actually got on your team,

580
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: and trusting that, trusting the defense that you have, understanding that, hey,

581
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: a running game is running is working pretty good right now.

582
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 1: They keep improving week after week. The running game just

583
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: keeps getting better and better. So and then seeing Zeke

584
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: jumping doing the hurdle, I mean, that's freaking amazing. That's

585
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. Zeke. He looks great. There was a big

586
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: scare when he got hit and you thought he was out.

587
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: I don't think there was any reports after that. I

588
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: mean he stayed in the game playing. Yeah, he said

589
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: he said he had a contusion, but he is like,

590
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: I haven't even gotten to check. That's what said after

591
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: the game. He's having to check. I'll get a check.

592
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,479
Speaker 1: I thought it was more of a thigh bruise than

593
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: it was anything. Didn't. I didn't think it was his knee.

594
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: I thought he got hit on the thigh and that's

595
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: what kind of like jolted him a little bit. But no,

596
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: you're nothing, no, no, no, no, yeah, like he's got

597
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: a ripped acl and he's just that's the thing. No,

598
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: he played through that whole thing. I mean last year. Yeah,

599
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: I was trying to say he has a tough guy.

600
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: I asked the trainers last year about that. I'm like, well,

601
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: what hell you know? Oh no, he's good, he's good,

602
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: he's good eating and after this season, oh man, I

603
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: had a ripped you know. I'm like, Zeke's a tough guy.

604
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: He is not miss games. But that's but that's the

605
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: thing about with there's there's no fall off with these backs.

606
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: There's if Zeke was struggling where I mean, last year,

607
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: you could argue that Pollard was averaging like two and

608
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 1: a two a half yards more a carry, and you

609
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: saw it. You're like going just play this one, play

610
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: play this one. But now it's like, you know when

611
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: you the people that like, oh no, Paulard needs more pop, well,

612
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: why Zeke's running the ball just as well. Last week

613
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: against Philadelphia, who ran the ball better, Zeke ran the

614
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: ball better. So you know, just if you could tell

615
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 1: me every week, I'm gonna get twenty seven carries in

616
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: one hundred and forty two yards rushing. Just give me

617
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: that whatever whatever combination that seems to work or that is,

618
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: that's what you need for the Dallas call. The one

619
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: thing that Pollard obviously is doing better than Zeke is

620
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: in the passing game is is you know, I don't

621
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: think Zeke has really made a big play at all.

622
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: And Pollard's catch coming out of the end zone that

623
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: was big, crazy, big play, good call, and I don't

624
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: think you know what's funny if you when you get

625
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: to the all twenty two on that, I don't think Pollard.

626
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: I don't think Pauler knew where the ball was. I

627
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 1: Paulard just stuck his hands up and the ball happened

628
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: that because he doesn't have his head back looking for

629
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: the ball. I mean literally, the defender dives and he's

630
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: got his head kind of not even looking, and he

631
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: puts his hands up and the ball goes right in

632
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 1: his hands and then he catches it and then he

633
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: goes up the field. It was like it was like

634
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 1: it was almost like he was surprised that he caught

635
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: it from our angle. I was active sworn it was

636
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: an interception. I was like, oh, and then I was like,

637
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: oh wait, he's running. Yeah, it literally looked like an intercept.

638
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: What It's crazy. I heard the crowd in there. Yeah.

639
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: And and we give them some some props out here too.

640
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 1: We didn't talk about this yesterday. The Lions fans, Yeah,

641
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: they brought it yesterday. I knew this. I was really

642
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: surprised by how many fans were there. This is a

643
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: one in four team. They sucked last year. They're not

644
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 1: much better this year. Sucked forever. True, that's who the

645
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: Lions a bad. Let's be honest. I mean, I got

646
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 1: I got friends who are Lions fans, which I when

647
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: I was when he told me, I was like, I

648
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: was like, they were Lions fans. But they got Lions

649
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: fans and they stuck through it and with their no

650
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: matter Ryan said it. Remember you said they're gonna come

651
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: in here, they're gonna play hard, they'll figure out a

652
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,719
Speaker 1: way to lose it, and they did. You know, they

653
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: figured out a way to fumble in the one and

654
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: all that stuff. But but yeah, I mean, but yeah,

655
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: they brought some fans. But I'll say this get ready

679
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to be

680
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

681
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:16,600

683
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

684

713
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: beer of the Dallas Cowboys Let's Talk Third Downs. Cowboys

714
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 1: were three of nine yesterday on third downs thirty three percent.

715
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 1: The good side is they also held their opponent to

716
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: three of nine on third downs, and it was a point.

717
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 1: It was into the second half before the Lions had

718
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 1: even converted the third downs, So the Cowboys defense was

719
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 1: doing their job. Yeah, you expect more of the Cowboys offense.

720
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,240
Speaker 1: And I broke down their third downs. Check out these numbers.

721
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,800
Speaker 1: They ran to the right side three times on third downs,

722
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: all three of them didn't get converted. They tried to

723
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: pass the ball four times on third downs, only one

724
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 1: of those was converted, and two times they ended up

725
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 1: with sacks. Here was the most interesting thing. Of the

726
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 1: nine third downs, seven of them came on third and shorts.

727
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 1: I'm talking two yards or less. And they couldn't come

728
00:35:54,840 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: up with a better convergent percentage than thirty three sent

729
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: What is the problem on third downs or what was

730
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 1: the problem yesterday? On third downs? They struggled with sustain

731
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 1: of blocks and I was going through all of them,

732
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 1: and the first third and one you had Dalton Schultz.

733
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: He could not keep his guy from making the play.

734
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: That's that was that was very very clear there, and

735
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: he's had a problem with that. They had ay, I

736
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 1: went back. They had the third and two was one

737
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 1: we just talked about where Dak didn't read it clean.

738
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: But the previous play to that was a second and

739
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: one and they lost a yard on the second and

740
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: one Noah Brown, McGovern smith all missed their blocks, so

741
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: now it's third and two instead of they try to

742
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: get the first down on second down, but they lose

743
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: a yard, so now it's a third and two and

744
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: then that leads to the sack on the next play.

745
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:54,359
Speaker 1: They had another third and one where where there they

746
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 1: had three players the lines had three players on the

747
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 1: on the field that didn't get fooled at all on

748
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: the play, the lineback of the safety and the defensive end.

749
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: That was the flip that they try to run on

750
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: third and one. So yeah, they've struggled. Yeah, they have struggled.

751
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 1: They have they have. They've struggled in this game yesterday,

752
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 1: they really struggled a not sustaining blocks and be not

753
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: fooling anybody if they tried to get a little cute,

754
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: you know, and sometimes being cute it works and then

755
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: other times it doesn't. But in this game, it it

756
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 1: kind of it kind of held him up a little bit.

757
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 1: You know they put turpin in the game. We've been

758
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: asking for that, and they gave him the ball into round,

759
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 1: which is which is fine. I mean he got the

760
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 1: poorly block play, Yeah, poorly block. He got three yards. Fine.

761
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: But the thing about it is is use that use

762
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: it again, put him out there and then fake it

763
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 1: to him. I mean, just keep it, keep it rolling

764
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 1: out the way. I mean, put a play on tape

765
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,439
Speaker 1: like that so you can play off of it. I thought,

766
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,920
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, has he not proven in the

767
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 1: open field? He can kind of do some things. I mean,

768
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 1: like this guy, he every every play, every game, he

769
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 1: is making a play on special teams that gets him

770
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: in great field positions at least once. It's amazing. I

771
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: wonder this. I wonder about if they should maybe change

772
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 1: the kickoff return part, like you know how far he

773
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: can go back with it. But the problem is is

774
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: you get the ball to twenty five If you just

775
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: let it go and it's not him, I think he

776
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: could get to the twenty to twenty five. I just

777
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: don't trust one of these young tight end running back

778
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: somebody to block in the back and put you first

779
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 1: and ten on the tent. And I don't want him

780
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 1: taking extra hits if he doesn't need to. If he's

781
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: only get him back to the twenty five, it's not

782
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 1: worth the extra hit on him. He's already a slight guy.

783
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 1: I want to limit his his hits or the exposure

784
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: to hits, as much as possible. I'd rather be on

785
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: plays when I think he can take it to the

786
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 1: house or get me to the forty fifty or the other.

787
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: We'll have some cold weather games where it'll happen. They'll

788
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: they'll kick it shorter or whatever, and he'll he'll go

789
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 1: off to make a play. You know. Um, before the show, Derek,

790
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: you you ask me, what are you gonna talk about today?

791
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,399
Speaker 1: Be mad about today? And I was like, I'm mad.

792
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 1: I don't know that mad. But now that we're talking

793
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 1: about third downs, I'm like, you know what, there is

794
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,919
Speaker 1: something im is starting to piss me off, and it's

795
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: forget about third down because okay, no, don't forget about it.

796
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 1: It's clearly a problem. But what is happening before third downs?

797
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,879
Speaker 1: Like for us to get to that point, you look

798
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 1: at the whole since the moment they get the ball,

799
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: the offense goes in there. And I'm tired of this happening.

800
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: I'm there with my laptop and I've mentioned this on

801
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,879
Speaker 1: the show for sure before, and this is something that

802
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: it's not Oh, Dak Prescott, it was happening with Cooper

803
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: Rush as well. So it's just the play calling or

804
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 1: something that they're doing that is not working. Because how

805
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: many times do we watch the offense go in and

806
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: then go right back out. It's like a bunch of

807
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: three and outs, and it's just not like a one

808
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: time thing. It just happens over and over. And I

809
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: think that last yesterday it happened a bunch of times.

810
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: Didn't keep track, but even in that first half, it

811
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,720
Speaker 1: just kept happening over and over, and I'm like, oh damn,

812
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 1: They're already back out like nothing happened there. So I guess,

813
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,280
Speaker 1: how do you even how do you extend the place

814
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 1: because okay, clearly third downs issues, but then how do

815
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: you keep your defense off the field so much? How

816
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: do you extend the place that you're creating with your offense?

817
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 1: Because and I guess that to me the way I

818
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: see it, Brian, and I don't know what you guys see,

819
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 1: but I mean it comes down I would say to

820
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: the play call and you're the play strategy. That's part

821
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: of it. But I also think that you know, when

822
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: like this, you kind of you know, you kind of

823
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: gloss over a five, you won five out of six,

824
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: you're kind of glossing over some of the issues. But

825
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 1: this team, in my opinion, has a real problem at

826
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: wide receiver. They don't have any ride receivers that can

827
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 1: go make plays that you're really scared of. I like CD,

828
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 1: he had a good game, but CD doesn't dominate the game.

829
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: He doesn't and they're gonna have a tough decision to

830
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,840
Speaker 1: make when it comes resigning him and all that, because

831
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,920
Speaker 1: he's not that guy that's just killing the team. Noel Brown,

832
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup, good players and all that. They don't have

833
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 1: a dude at receiver. And I think it's a problem.

834
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: I think I can kind of grind out some yards

835
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: here and there, when you get to it, you're like,

836
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to him. I don't think it's it's there.

837
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 1: Do you think Amari Cooper was that guy? I think

838
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: the combination of having CD and Amari Cooper and Gallop

839
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: and all that, and yes, Cooper was just enough of

840
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 1: that guy where he could do it. And then he

841
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 1: had it and it kind of worked. But yeah, because

842
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: he was a great route runner. I think he was

843
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: close to that guy. He needs help a little bit

844
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 1: around him, but I think, yeah, I think it kind

845
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 1: of worked together. But when you take him away, you

846
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 1: basically replaced him with NOELH. Brown, And now you don't.

847
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: I just don't think you've got it got you know

848
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: what I would have probably several weeks ago I had

849
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 1: have disagreed with you. But I'm coming around to what

850
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,440
Speaker 1: you're saying, because you look at the one guy that

851
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 1: we talked about that could benefit from Dak coming back

852
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: and maybe it'll happen against the Bears or you know,

853
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,880
Speaker 1: off week Packers, whatever you know. But Michael Gallup, you

854
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 1: know he had two targets, just catches, and you're and

855
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 1: so I started watching. Are they winning off the line? Yeah?

856
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 1: Are they? Are they getting open? It? Is it the

857
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 1: is it the play calling? Where you know Cooper? I

858
00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 1: think you got to give Kellen Moore credit for at

859
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 1: least like winning these games with Cooper Rush at quarterback.

860
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 1: I don't think you could just completely say the defense,

861
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: but you had to score. You have to score to

862
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 1: win these games somehow, some way. You have to score.

863
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: But I'm starting to come around to your thought about

864
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 1: the wide receivers because I don't I don't see that.

865
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 1: I don't see that dynamic player. And I saw a

866
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 1: dynamic player in college with Ceedee Lamb. How they used

867
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: him in Oklahoma and how he was all over and

868
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: making plays and all that. I haven't. I haven't seen that,

869
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's creativity or it's To me,

870
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,719
Speaker 1: it's there's times where they don't went off the line.

871
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean, Philadelphia ate them up in that game last week.

872
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: They couldn't get away from anybody. This game a little

873
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,959
Speaker 1: bit better, you know, getting open, but not nearly enough,

874
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:13,919
Speaker 1: not to the point where it's just an easy throw,

875
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: easy throw, easy throw and all that. So I don't know.

876
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: I to me, I say, I don't know. I know that.

877
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: What I see that, I'm starting not to like. Yeah,

878
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: that's that's a problem, because there's gonna be as good

879
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,760
Speaker 1: as your defense is, you're gonna have to score some points.

880
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 1: You know, you're I mean, this defense is finding a

881
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:37,720
Speaker 1: way every week to to you know, get this offense

882
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,439
Speaker 1: back the ball and do some things. But I think

883
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 1: you know, when they sit down and self scout at

884
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 1: the buy. That's when, and that's the week of the

885
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: trade deadline too. I mean, maybe this is something that

886
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: they need to really really really think about going in

887
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 1: going in forward. I honestly, and I know what I

888
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,879
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying, Brian, and I agree with you, Nick,

889
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,800
Speaker 1: but I don't know that it is a personnel issue.

890
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 1: I tend to wonder, and I don't know if this

891
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,399
Speaker 1: is true, but I tend to wonder if it's just

892
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 1: that you don't You're gonna have to say, Ceedee, Lamb

893
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 1: has some really unique skills. How do I, as an

894
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator find ways to get him into really great

895
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 1: situations where he's getting the ball and being able to

896
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 1: do something with those really great skills. Like you said, Brian,

897
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: I watched this guy do that in college. I watched

898
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 1: him do it every Saturday in college. Yea, like he

899
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: could do it. It's just a matter of are you

900
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 1: doing the things that are necessary. Cooper Cup to me,

901
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,879
Speaker 1: is a really really, really great wide receiver. I think

902
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: he becomes a great wide receiver because that offensive staff

903
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 1: knows how to get him into some really unique situations

904
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 1: where they can use his skill, where he can use

905
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: his skills to make big plays. I don't know they're

906
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 1: doing that enough with That's that's the that's the issue

907
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 1: right now, because you know, on the defensive side of

908
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 1: the ball, dan Quinn is going to take somebody that

909
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: you know, he's going to play to the strengths of

910
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 1: whoever his defenders are. And you wonder, is is this

911
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,240
Speaker 1: offensive staff really playing to the strengths of the players

912
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,719
Speaker 1: you have, you know, And and to your point, I

913
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,840
Speaker 1: think you're I think you're right about it, But I

914
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 1: also want and maybe if if Nick you go out

915
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 1: and you get a wide receiver, they might not use

916
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: him the right way either. No, no, maybe, yeah, But

917
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: I will give them credit for winning football games with

918
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: a backup quarterback. This thing could have gone completely off

919
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: the rails. And I kind of feel like that that coordinator,

920
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 1: whether the head coach went up to him and said, listen, bro,

921
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: we're gonna run the football and we're not going to

922
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 1: turn it over, and we're gonna punt it and we're

923
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 1: gonna make it. We're gonna get the ball back at

924
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: midfield and then we can drive it, you know, and

925
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,840
Speaker 1: do things like that. But I wonder, I mean, I

926
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 1: wonder if it is a personnel thing maybe and I

927
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 1: but I also wonder, you know, is can this these

928
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 1: coaches use their offensive guys in the right way? What

929
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 1: is you know thing about CD? And again I rore

930
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: a weapon? I really like CD. I like him a lot.

931
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,040
Speaker 1: He told a story in the locker room the other

932
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: day about some of the stuff he's gone through in

933
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 1: his life and some of the office field stuff. I mean,

934
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 1: easy guy to root for. Um. I'll say this though.

935
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: On the field though, when you look at say Madden

936
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,440
Speaker 1: rating type stuff, all different attributes, like what is he

937
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 1: at ninety nine at you know that that's what's gonna

938
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 1: be tough? Is like making these guys special. He's not

939
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:12,920
Speaker 1: super fast, His hands are questionable at times. At times

940
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:16,799
Speaker 1: his route running isn't like super crisp playmaking on the ball,

941
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 1: we saw it an Oxnard. We haven't seen it all

942
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 1: the time. Good catch the other yes, we saw it

943
00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 1: more earlier in his career. Yeah, we haven't really seen

944
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:27,320
Speaker 1: that a lot. So playmaking. He's pretty good. Speeds, good

945
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:31,320
Speaker 1: hands are you know okay? At times? Are out running okay?

946
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,319
Speaker 1: I mean like like so like what is it? I'll

947
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 1: tell you what he was in college? What the thing

948
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: that stood out to me was he was a guy

949
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:41,799
Speaker 1: that was slippery. It was hard, It was hard to

950
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:43,800
Speaker 1: get him down. He got the ball in his hands

951
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: and he's making guys miss all around the field. And

952
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're getting him enough situations where

953
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: he's cleanly catching the ball and has an opportunity to

954
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,000
Speaker 1: show some of that stuff, Like, he's not a guy's

955
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,040
Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of separation. So unless you're creating

956
00:46:57,040 --> 00:47:00,919
Speaker 1: separation for him by scheming it that way, then he's

957
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 1: gonna have somebody right on him, and you're gonna trust

958
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: the fact that he can make that tough catch and

959
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 1: then probably get tackled. Just having those nightmares of that

960
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 1: cotton bowl where he just ripped text. Yes, yes, that's

961
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,719
Speaker 1: what you build parselves. You say, right, if you've seen it,

962
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:17,439
Speaker 1: you know they can do it right, And I've seen

963
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 1: him do it. I know he can do it. I

964
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 1: just don't know if they're putting him the right situation. Yeah,

965
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 1: what is the right situation for him? They got to

966
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:26,359
Speaker 1: figure out how to scheme him open, get into into

967
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 1: situations where he's getting the ball on the run and

968
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 1: then can make some plays with they schemed him open

969
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 1: in New York, the perfect fas. Yeah. True, But to

970
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,879
Speaker 1: his credit, he came back and a Micah Parsons type

971
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 1: of way and that rest of that game where he

972
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna just run people. Oh, I'm gonna

973
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 1: take over this game. So maybe he piss him off

974
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 1: a little bit, him all off. I guess that's that's

975
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 1: that's the moral of this story. Five two. Keep winning.

976
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:51,840
Speaker 1: We appreciate you guys. Jumps me back tomorrow, get a
