Uh yeah, We're gonna have to make some 171 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 3: changes in terms of how we go about you know, 172 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 3: saying acquiring guys like yeah, I feel as if you're 173 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 3: starting to I think the message is starting to get clearer. 174 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 6: Message message. 175 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 5: So let me let me add on to this, because 176 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 5: when we talk to him in mobile, it was really 177 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 5: it was me, Tommy, Nick Harris, and one other reporter 178 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 5: that we're in the building and it was just us 179 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 5: four in a back hallway of South Alabama's press box, 180 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 5: the weirdest spot you could possibly have it. I thought 181 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 5: he was very real with us. And if you haven't 182 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 5: watched the go watch it Dallas Cobys dot com. It's 183 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 5: on the YouTube channel. It's on Dallas Cowboys dot com. 184 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 2: Go watch it. But he talked to us a little 185 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: bit before. 186 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 5: That, about two minutes before that, in about four or 187 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 5: five minutes after that, and I think you're right in 188 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 5: the past I would I would say he's just as 189 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 5: good at at not addressing the elephant in the room 190 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 5: as his father, as Jerry, and that's been a part 191 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 5: of them being businessmen all the way through. I think 192 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 5: the message has been heard and the frustration has been reached. 193 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 5: They aren't happy, and that was the sense that I've got. 194 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 5: I've been around Stephen Jones since twenty nineteen and even 195 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 5: beyond because I did some stuff with Highland Park football 196 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 5: when John Stephen Jones was stuff. So I've known Stephen 197 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 5: since twenty seventeen, and the more I've talked with him, 198 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 5: the more I've seen, Okay, he knows how to handle 199 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 5: the media. He knows how to handle his words and 200 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 5: knows how to craft them in a certain way to 201 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 5: send a message. I thought the message he sent to 202 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 5: us at South Alabama during the Senior Bowl was it's 203 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 5: it should change. He didn't say it's going to change, 204 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 5: but he's saying it should change because what we've been 205 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 5: doing and this is a direct quote from him, maybe 206 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 5: maybe paraphrased a little bit, but what we've been doing 207 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 5: has not been working, so something has to change. And 208 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 5: that's the first time I've heard them say that it's 209 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 5: got to get the first time period. So I believe 210 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 5: it when I see it, because I've been around this 211 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 5: organization for long enough too to see a lot of 212 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 5: words don't necessarily mean anything. That time I got a 213 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 5: sense that it did. I think it did. I think 214 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 5: it did mean anything. Well, you finally got the word 215 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 5: from the right person. I think that's a part of 216 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 5: it too. If the narrative change is changing, at least 217 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 5: it's starting there. And then now you're seeing this coaching staff, 218 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 5: how it's been put together. 219 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: Coaching staff is tremendous. You really have really. 220 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 7: Had, Like there's a lot of silver lining that. Of course, 221 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 7: it's bittersweet now because the Eagles just won the Super Bowl. 222 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 6: Like it it's not. 223 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 2: Gonna I think it. 224 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 4: I think it serves the maximum lesson for the get Boys. 225 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: Look how the is bookended. 226 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,239 Speaker 4: It began with one of the most inactive free agencies 227 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: I've seen. 228 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 5: Well before that in the same press box, Cherry said 229 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 5: all in, and so. 230 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 2: There's the frog all in. 231 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 4: And then the antithesis of that as defined by most 232 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 4: of civilization, okay, occurred. And then you go through the 233 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 4: season fast forward, through everything that happened, the death issues 234 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 4: and the production issues in the first half, and scheme 235 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 4: issues whatever whatever, and injuries, and now you go to 236 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 4: the playoffs and who wins it but your direct rival, 237 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 4: who is the polar opposite of you, and free agency 238 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 4: the polar opposite. So that serves the maximum lesson because 239 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 4: I think that if the Chiefs did win, and I 240 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 4: was I was rooting for the Chiefs to win. Let's 241 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 4: be clear, I did not want the Eagles to get 242 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 4: another I just my petty is my pity. 243 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 2: But now that we've been very clear, yeah, I won't 244 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 2: just want Philly. 245 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 6: Some of us have allegiance to the team. 246 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 3: That I want nothing, whether it be Cowboys, my brain, 247 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 3: I want nothing good for the Philadelphia fan base. 248 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 2: That's nothing. That being said, they did win the Super Bowl. 249 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 3: So so what you can do is now use that 250 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 3: as a lesson. 251 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: For the guys. 252 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 6: How do you respond? 253 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 2: How it goes? 254 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 4: And I love what you guys are saying about the 255 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 4: Stephen Jones versus Jerry Jones dynamic. I was having this 256 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 4: conversation with Tommy this time yesterday morning, and I said, 257 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 4: Jerry is the salesman. 258 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 3: Whether you like what he's selling or not, he's selling you. 259 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 3: Steven is more print on paper. Steven's the finance guy 260 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 3: sitting there. 261 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 4: Stephen has more print on paper. Stephen is less the 262 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 4: salesman and more so, this is where we are. So 263 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 4: when you start to hear Steven change his tone, which is. 264 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 2: What I'm hearing, it's definitely a tone. 265 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 4: I cannot stress this enough. Kylin Out we were all 266 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 4: the same show me, show me, show me that. 267 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 3: Being said, I like what I'm hearing from Stephen because 268 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 3: these are things we haven't heard before the press conference 269 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 3: with Schottenheimer. When you hear Stephen Jones say when the 270 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 3: question I posed to him was what could you take 271 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 3: from a team like the Eagles in free agency and 272 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 3: their approach that can help the Cowboys going forward? 273 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 4: This is Stephen Jones. He said, Yeah, I think you 274 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 4: certainly look at that. He said, I think you look 275 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 4: at your competitors and your conference's what's going to take 276 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 4: to have success, whether it's the forty nine ers or 277 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 4: the Eagles. You ask yourself, what does it take to 278 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 4: beat the forty nine ers, What does it take to 279 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 4: beat the Rams. These are comments that change the narrative 280 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 4: of what we know from Stephen Jones. Yes, he is 281 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 4: the we like our guys guy, he's that guy. Yes, 282 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 4: we know it's bye, but we're hearing less of that 283 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 4: this offseason and more of what Kyle is saying, the 284 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 4: conversations he's having in the back room of the press box, 285 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: saying something's got to change. 286 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 287 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 4: So and again we're waiting to see it, and hopefully 288 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 4: we see it. But I will say from a coaching 289 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 4: staff standpoint, which is the first and foremost thing. Oh, 290 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 4: they're knocking that out the part and this. 291 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 5: Might be the title of the episode. But actions speak 292 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 5: louder than work. Yeah, play and yeah, that's too long 293 00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 5: of it. Maybe just actions speak louder, action speak louder words. 294 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 5: And we've seen a little bit of action. The slight 295 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 5: action we've seen has been the higher of Brian Schottenheimer. 296 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 2: Which say what you may show me. 297 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 5: A lot of people haven't liked it, a lot of 298 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,599 Speaker 5: people do like it. We'll see at the end of 299 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 5: the day, and then but the staff behind it, Schottenheimer 300 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 5: has looked tremendous. 301 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 7: It's it's what you can do at this point is 302 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 7: being done. Yes, what you can do, the things that 303 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 7: you can change or being changed. Granted you didn't have 304 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 7: coaches in. 305 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 5: Place, you can still go sign Micah. That would be 306 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 5: another thing that you can do. 307 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 3: He's putting a lot of the thing that I like, 308 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: and I probably could hit this in news and notes. 309 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 2: I would imagine that we need to address we are going. 310 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 5: To go to coaching. 311 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 3: Okay, so I'll just say this without getting into the weeds. 312 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 3: I feel as if Schottenheimer is putting guys in position 313 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 3: to do what they do best. He's not asking coaches 314 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 3: to go outside of their realm, correct, right, He is saying, 315 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,239 Speaker 3: what are you expert at? 316 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 2: Bring that here? 317 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I want to do I want to go 318 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 5: a little deeper into that because I completely agree with 319 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 5: you going back to the conversation that you were just having, 320 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 5: and we're talking about the Eagles and how they built 321 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 5: to get there. It is a combination of both. There 322 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 5: is draft and development, for sure, but there's also the signing. 323 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: I looked up to two Rocky show up in a 324 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 2: major way, no doubt about it. 325 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 5: Degene and and uh yeah, absolutely so. On the opposite 326 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 5: side of things, here's here's how they've changed their starting 327 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 5: lineup from Super Bowl fifty seven to super Bowl fifty nine. 328 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: When they were there the first time. 329 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 5: And they lost, they had nine different starters this time 330 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 5: around on the defensive side of the football, which would 331 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 5: you agree that the defense is what won that game? 332 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 5: Film absolute, that's unbelievable. 333 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: So two years were alone. 334 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 5: Two years ago, years ago, they had nine different starters 335 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 5: from there from their group that went to the super 336 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 5: Bowl the first time around, So there's that element to it. 337 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 5: They drafted Jalen Carter, drafted Jordan Davis, drafted Nolan Smith. 338 00:14:58,760 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: Got it right. 339 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 5: All three of those guys are dogs. They were in 340 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 5: the right place at the right time. Nolan Smith was 341 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 5: a guy that had injury concerns. They said, screw the 342 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 5: injury concerns, We're going to draft the dude. 343 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 3: And one of their main contributors to that defense is 344 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 3: on ir Inn Kobe Deane. 345 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 2: Yeah he is. Yeah, yes, he was drafted as well. Yeah. 346 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 5: Now, they also drafted Quinon Mitchell Cooper de Jean, who 347 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 5: we talked about as rookies. They got the right contribute 348 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 5: or contribution from two very important rookies and two very 349 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 5: good rookies. 350 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 7: And they addressed a need, addressed a need that they 351 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 7: had last year because the secondary was not what it 352 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 7: was like they had and they tried. They traded for 353 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 7: somebody last year. I don't even remember who it was, 354 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 7: but that didn't work out. It didn't get them over 355 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 7: the hump. So then into the offseason they said, okay, 356 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 7: well let's draft the best available players in the secondary 357 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 7: of the position of need. 358 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 5: Well, that's thee. They grabbed CJ. They grabbed CJ. Gardner Johnson, 359 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 5: They signed him. They signed uh, what's his name or 360 00:15:58,680 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 5: in is it Orn Burks? 361 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 2: What's his name? 362 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 5: Who start started the Yeah? Orin Burks the linebacker signed 363 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 5: him from San Francisco. Uh, he started as well. Zach Bond. 364 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 5: They fined him Bond. Bond wasn't even a highly vaultable 365 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 5: free agent, but he worked out. 366 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 2: Yep. 367 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 5: So even you've got the draft and developed, he got 368 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 5: the sign and developed. 369 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 2: Finished the top ten in defense rankings. Yeah, he was 370 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: an All Pro and he had an incredible got the bag. 371 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 3: So yeah, they got a number of guys and they 372 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 3: just got the bag. Milton, Yeah, just got the bag 373 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 3: with two sads Williams. 374 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 2: Oh. Yeah. 375 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 4: The bottom line is you build both ways. Yeah, you 376 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 4: have to have to find a way to balance that scale. 377 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 4: And so this is why I've said time and time 378 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 4: again and again, Uh, they're going to sell what they're 379 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 4: going to sell. I don't begrudge them. Whatever they're trying 380 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 4: to sell, it doesn't mean I have to buy. So 381 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 4: when you're talking about salary cap management and things like that, 382 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 4: and we'll get into this, uh you know later in 383 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 4: the show and as the off season rules along, but 384 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 4: we're talking free agency, we're talking about being willing to spend. 385 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 4: You can't sell me on you know, well the money's 386 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 4: not there. It will be there, and it can be there. 387 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 4: You can free upset seventy five million just by three 388 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 4: triggers being pulled. You could pull out another eighty five ninety. 389 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 4: I mean it can happen. 390 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 6: So we just business. 391 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 4: You've done stage one, as we have this conversation, play 392 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 4: with scary of money. No you can't. We've done stage one. 393 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 4: The Cowboys have this coaching staff looks sensational. It looks sensational. 394 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 3: Now what you need to do is get the personnel 395 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 3: on the field for these coaches to be able to cook. 396 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 3: And that doesn't mean waiting until the NFL Draft. That 397 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 3: doesn't mean leaning so heavily on Will McClay and his 398 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 3: scouting department that you don't that you're completely overlooking holes 399 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 3: that can be filled palls by talented free agents. Even 400 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 3: if you don't want to overpay and Wave one, Wave 401 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 3: two still has some substantial talent from outside the building. 402 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 3: So yes, try to keep your oss and your Jordans, 403 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 3: but go and get some of these other guys that 404 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 3: are falling off of some of these other rosters. Mister 405 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 3: Jones's reply to that, I would imagine is that we 406 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 3: have two guys currently at the top three of their 407 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 3: positions in terms of salaries, and we're about to have 408 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 3: a third. 409 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 4: Congratulations that third that you're about to have if you 410 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 4: And this is why there's only. 411 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 2: So many pieces of the pie. There's only so many 412 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: people that high. I don't hear. I don't want to 413 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 2: hear about no pie. I don't hear about the pie. 414 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: It's only pie about Listen. At the end of the day. 415 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 4: This is also a great lesson and hopefully they've learned 416 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 4: it as far as extending players contracts early and not late. 417 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 4: If you extend Michael Parson's contract this year, you can 418 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 4: free up almost eighteen million dollars towards the cap for 419 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 4: this year's off season. 420 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 2: Sir long, okay. 421 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 4: If you wait until next season when his contract is expiring, 422 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 4: it becomes a massive hit to extend the contract. 423 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 2: These are the games that. 424 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 4: Are being played very well by teams like the Eagles. 425 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 4: To forty nine is the Rams. So when you are 426 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 4: ready to do an extension, don't wait. 427 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 3: Don't don't So what happens when people say what about 428 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 3: kicking the can you. 429 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 6: Play that game with Dak Prescott and you kick what happened? 430 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 2: Kick it still toe kick it? 431 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 3: Listen, man, Brandon Aubrey, that all the way down the 432 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 3: bill is gonna come do Okay, when when has it here? 433 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 3: When the salary cap gets bigger, it increases fifteen, it's 434 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 3: not gonna go up that much. 435 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 6: But in five years and ten years the Cowboys. 436 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 3: Fact, what you're saying is the Cowboys are always protecting 437 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 3: themselves for what hasn't happened, correct and what wouldn't happen 438 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 3: for a long time to come. 439 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 4: And then by the time it happens, you can finesse 440 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 4: it another way because there are new options. 441 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 2: So that's finishing it. 442 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 3: So when we say don't play with scared money, I 443 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 3: know mister Jones's reply is going to be, well, that's 444 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 3: the highest paid CDs the second highest paid, Mike is 445 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 3: about to be the highest paid. So we're not playing 446 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 3: with scared money. We're spending money. I know that's going 447 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 3: to be the reply. But on the other end of that, 448 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,439 Speaker 3: you also have to say, well, in terms of this 449 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 3: protecting the salary cap thing, you've never been in salary 450 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 3: cap hill, Like you know what I'm saying you've never been. 451 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 2: You never had your back. 452 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 3: All the way up against the wall where you couldn't 453 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 3: sign guys or you couldn't manipulate guys contract. It hasn't happened, right, 454 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 3: So to say that this is the reason why we 455 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 3: don't go out and acquire guys, you've never been, you 456 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 3: never face that lash, of course. 457 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 2: Right, So like, what are you protecting? Right? Because face 458 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 2: exactly right. 459 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 3: So Philadelphia, on the other hand, says, all right, Brandon 460 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 3: Aubrey kicking this thing all the way down the road, 461 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,719 Speaker 3: and everybody says, what, Oh this's gonna hit them. Oh, 462 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 3: it's gonna be so bad. For that's always a reply 463 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 3: by people, Oh it's gonna be so bad. They're gonna 464 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 3: be the situation that they can't three Super Bowl appearances. 465 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 3: You know what, because it's it's a three. 466 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 4: It's it's not a static situation, a fluid the salary 467 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 4: cap situation is fluid. So you're preparing for this inevitability. 468 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 4: To suppose it inevitability. Let's say, let's say, based on 469 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 4: how the numbers and everything look in twenty twenty five 470 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 4: that if you handle things a certain way, then O, 471 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 4: the sky's gonna start falling. In twenty twenty nine. Let's 472 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 4: say that's that's the logical argument. Well, the problem with 473 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 4: that argument, the flaw in that argument and that logic 474 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 4: is that by the time twenty twenty eight twenty twenty 475 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 4: nine rolls around, they're gonna be different variables that have 476 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 4: changed to allow you to manipulate it, to push that 477 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 4: inevitability down the road another four five years. This is 478 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 4: what the Rams do, This is what the Eagles do, 479 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 4: this is what the forty nine ers do. And I 480 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 4: want the Cowboys to start doing it. Stop being afraid 481 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 4: of an inevitability that by the time it arrives no 482 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 4: longer beability. 483 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 6: And what do those teams often do? 484 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 2: Free agency? 485 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 6: Free agency and they kind of get deep into the playoffs. 486 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 3: Hold on, but talk about the Rams. I know, we 487 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 3: gotta go to break the Rams. Okay, the Rams.

Now, there's obviously one voice that 746 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 3: has a lot more weight than others, but he is 747 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 3: bringing in these guys to absorb and and and implement 748 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 3: their their wisdom and their expertise. So I would love 749 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 3: to see how all these different schemes, philosophies, approaches come 750 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 3: together to create this new playbook. 751 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 2: Like, I'm excited about that. 752 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 7: But here, here's one thing, and this is intriguing me. 753 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,879 Speaker 7: I don't have the answer. I'm just throwing it out there. 754 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 7: But what is it about Shoddy's offense? What is he 755 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 7: pitching to these coaches from other organizations, other college teams 756 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 7: that they're buying in and saying looking at what the 757 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 7: Cowboys did last off last season with their offense specifically, 758 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 7: and saying, yeah, I. 759 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 6: Want to work for them next year. 760 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 2: You know what? 761 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 6: Ooh, I just thought of some come on with it, 762 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 6: Come on with it. 763 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 3: We just finished talk about the Joneses, and we just 764 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 3: talked started talking about the Joneses and their approach to 765 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,439 Speaker 3: free agency, right and how we would like to see 766 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 3: a change. Maybe this is the first step. It might 767 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 3: be because we don't know what the assistant coaches make. 768 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 3: Step one, We don't know what these assistant coaches make. 769 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 3: And these assistant coaches are not getting their first opportunity. 770 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 3: For the ones that are coming from college, they're not 771 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 3: getting their first opportunity at NFL coaching jobs. I would imagine, 772 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 3: I imagine they've had before. Maybe the Jones have opened 773 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 3: up the checkbook. M maybe this is their first shot 774 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 3: at free agency. 775 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:12,320 Speaker 2: I'm dead serious. 776 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 3: Right before they can get players, they're getting coaches get 777 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 3: coaches by right, and they have to not only buy 778 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 3: in to what shot he's pitching, but buy in to 779 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 3: what the coaches want financially. Because we don't know what 780 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 3: these assistant coaches are making, they don't have to disclose. 781 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 2: That one thing that's clear already, you know what I mean. 782 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 2: They don't have to disclose that. 783 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 3: So the Joneses might be opening it up to play, 784 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 3: might be opened up their checkbook and say, hey, Shotty, 785 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 3: go get who you want to get. We'll make sure 786 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 3: that we funded on the back end. This might be 787 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,439 Speaker 3: the Jones first indication of what they're willing to do 788 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 3: free agent wise, because this is the free agency of coaches. 789 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 4: Well, I can tell you right now. And this is 790 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 4: not a situation where, like you know, a coach is 791 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 4: coming in and they're trying to retain a certain portion 792 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 4: of the playbook. It sounds like this playbook is being 793 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 4: it's being created ground and created completely. And you talk 794 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 4: about when the coature might be as if it is 795 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 4: definitively going to be built from the trenches out. Yes, 796 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 4: this team is going when you talk about Derek Foster 797 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 4: and Connor Riley and Clayton Adams and even the scheme 798 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 4: that Shaddy said that he's envisioning, this team is looking 799 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 4: to bully you and then play off of that to 800 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,760 Speaker 4: affect the game in the air. So we it feels 801 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 4: like that's where the culture is going there, and you 802 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 4: just you really have to love it because, like what 803 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 4: Josh is saying is poignant. These are guys who are 804 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 4: high level in their respective organizations and programs. 805 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 2: You leave an Oregon program that was number one in 806 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 2: the nation and you leaven feel Knight. 807 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,240 Speaker 3: You leave Kansas State program where you're for all intents 808 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 3: and purposes, you're one of the you're heraldin that's one 809 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,800 Speaker 3: of the best offensive minds in the country. 810 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 2: You're comfortable, you're. 811 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 3: Leaving these comfortable, high level positions, first time NFL head 812 00:36:54,239 --> 00:37:00,359 Speaker 3: coach for the most visible and critically and criticized say 813 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:05,240 Speaker 3: scrutinize team arguably and all of us.

So if you're a coach being 835 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 4: wooed or being recruited. Not only do you have to 836 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 4: buy into what the plan is going to be schematically, 837 00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 4: who we're you gonna have? 838 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 2: Who?

You definitely need a one B receiver, But who's 966 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 4: your running back? 967 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 2: I think it's you. That's why it's only one right 968 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 2: you need. 969 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,879 Speaker 6: But this is specifically free agents von. 970 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 2: No, it's just so you remember when you need a 971 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:14,239 Speaker 2: running back. 972 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 4: So even if you can figure out the duce Von equation, 973 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 4: now that Connor Riley is in the building, you still 974 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 4: need another running back because He's not going to be 975 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 4: your workhorse. He's not going to That means that your 976 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 4: your goal is to make him more of that shifty guy. 977 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 2: You don't want him doing all the dirty. Oh I 978 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 2: was joking about. No, no, but. 979 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 4: Seriously, dude, finally and this will please I. 980 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 2: Fine, there is. 981 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 4: Some justifiable optimism that the Cowboys can figure out the 982 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:43,360 Speaker 4: duce Vaughan variable. Mike McCarthy couldn't figure it out. But 983 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 4: Connor Riley is in the building, and here are some numbers. 984 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 4: And I know people say on the okay, here here 985 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 4: are some numbers. Though, when Connor Riley had duce Von 986 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 4: at Kansas State, duce Von produced four thy eight hundred 987 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,439 Speaker 4: and eighty four yards from scrimmage and forty three touchdowns 988 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:01,959 Speaker 4: at bridge one hundred and nine point seven rushing yards 989 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 4: per game in his final two seasons, and he was 990 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,359 Speaker 4: also effective as a running back out of a wide 991 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,319 Speaker 4: receiver out of the backfield nine point three yards per 992 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 4: reception in his final two season with Kansas State. If 993 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 4: there's anyone that can unlock Ducevon as Connor Riley, if 994 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 4: duce Von can't be unlocked with Connor Riley at the 995 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 4: NFL level, now, then we can wash our hands with Duzvon. 996 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 4: That being said, even if Duce Vaughan has a breakout season, 997 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:26,240 Speaker 4: you still need that compliment. I am still of the belief. 998 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,240 Speaker 4: And this is without having talked in to Rico, spoken 999 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 4: to Rico, but this is just logically speaking, this is 1000 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 4: the best leverage that Rico Daldo has had in his career. 1001 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 4: He's going to test the market. He's going to Tony 1002 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 4: Pollard the market. Does that mean he's going to leave. 1003 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,879 Speaker 4: There's a strong chance that he does leave. We'll see 1004 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 4: if he's willing to stay. But if he stays, don't 1005 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 4: expect it to be on a team discal So I'll 1006 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 4: say that, but rather it's retaining Rico or you're going 1007 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 4: you get a guy like Ashton Genty. Now that the 1008 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 4: pipeline is there and re establish you still need to 1009 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 4: solve for running back. Solve for running back. I know 1010 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 4: people are saying offense, you have personnel already on the 1011 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 4: offense lines. 1012 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:02,760 Speaker 2: The need that's who's running the ball. 1013 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 3: If you understand what I'm saying, who's running the ball? 1014 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 3: Anybody can run lines amazing until slash Wait than never. 1015 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 2: If CD does. 1016 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 6: I genuinely think that, but do you understand what I'm saying. 1017 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 3: You're saying, if CD gets hurt, who's catching. I'm saying, 1018 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 3: if CD is healthy, he's already set. It doesn't health 1019 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 3: notwithstanding who's. 1020 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 2: Running the ball. 1021 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 3: I said that about Rico this year we found out 1022 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 3: as long as the old line is blocking, you're gonna 1023 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 3: get a thousand yards. Rico had already shown flashes before 1024 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 3: the depth chart though the un because he was behind first, 1025 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 3: he was behind Zeke and Tony, then he was behind 1026 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 3: Tony and then he had injuries. 1027 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 4: Okay, so fine. What I'm saying is assuming Rico test 1028 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 4: the market and that creates a good likelihood that he leaves. 1029 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 2: Who's running the ball. 1030 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:53,720 Speaker 6: There's there's question marks. 1031 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,319 Speaker 2: CD and Millie Davids was on the practice squad all 1032 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 2: year right for a reason, and this is not. This 1033 00:46:58,800 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 2: is not. 1034 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:03,720 Speaker 3: This is not to Malie Malik showed flashed. Yes, who's 1035 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 3: running over over a one? 1036 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 4: B Isaiah, So you're telling me or a right guard 1037 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 4: you I want to be clear. So you're telling me 1038 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 4: that you're confident. 1039 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 3: Man, running backs are good. There's a lot of good running. 1040 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 3: Let me say they they are going to listen on 1041 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 3: a real court. How do we gotta go. What justifies 1042 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 3: how do you Outside of fumbling? What makes a running 1043 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,919 Speaker 3: back bad? Makes running back bad? Lack of behind behind 1044 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 3: a really good offensive of visions, lack of possessions, lack 1045 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:41,760 Speaker 3: of anticipation, yeah, those things, lack of burst, lack of behind. 1046 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 3: So behind a really good offensive line, you're saying most 1047 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 3: running backs can't. 1048 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:48,399 Speaker 2: Fall for for fall forward, fall for forth. 1049 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 3: Behind a really good offensive line and good offensive scheme. 1050 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,240 Speaker 3: You're saying, most running backs can't fall for four yards. 1051 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,319 Speaker 2: So here's my question to you. False, Here's here's my question. 1052 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,280 Speaker 2: They can't. They can. So that's what I'm saying. 1053 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 3: Most running backs that come into your camp are capable. 1054 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 3: Here's offensive line. You can't say that. Receivers, you can't 1055 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 3: say that, I love you. 1056 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,839 Speaker 7: Behind the Philly Old Line, I guarantee Royce Freeman would 1057 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:13,760 Speaker 7: have had a thousand yards. 1058 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 6: I mean, oh, stop that. Come on, man, come on, man, 1059 00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 6: stop that. 1060 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 7: Behind the best old line in football, you can put 1061 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 7: first of all, just about it running backs. 1062 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 4: It's not even about overvaluing guys. This is about based 1063 00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 4: upon the science that we saw from the film and 1064 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,359 Speaker 4: things like that. Yes, you have questions on the offensive line, 1065 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 4: but you also have personnel you can be optimistic about. 1066 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 4: Brock Kaffman showed you you can be optimistic about him. 1067 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 2: TJ. Bass showed you that you can be optimistic about him. 1068 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,279 Speaker 2: From a running back perspective. 1069 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 3: You don't have anybody on this current roster who will 1070 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 3: be under contract guaranteed at the time of this conversation 1071 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 3: that you can say that is the guy who's going 1072 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 3: to fall full. You're more confident, You're more confident in 1073 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 3: the running back debt. I'm most confident in the personnel 1074 00:48:58,360 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 3: than I am with. 1075 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:01,879 Speaker 2: Let's let's not even talk about offers line. 1076 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 3: But are you more confident in the depth at running 1077 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:06,399 Speaker 3: back or more confident in the depth at receiver? As 1078 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 3: we have this conversation, absolutely have more talented bodies at 1079 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:09,919 Speaker 3: receiver than you do. 1080 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,439 Speaker 5: I would agree there that running back because you don't 1081 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 5: have bodies. 1082 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,360 Speaker 4: And this is not me saying that Brooks and Tobert 1083 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 4: are going to be Pro bowlers.
