Inventuation, my punctuation, 37 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 6: My punctuation is all over the place. 38 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 2: Here we go. 39 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 6: So we're gonna go around the table. But I will 40 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 6: tell you this before I get to you guys. This 41 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 6: game reminded me so much of what happened in twenty 42 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 6: twenty two when the Cowboys started the season in Tampa. 43 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 6: If you remember that game, the score doesn't really reflect 44 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 6: what the game looked like. It was a nineteen to 45 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 6: three loss against Tom Brady. But I came out of 46 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 6: that game feeling like this team played better than I 47 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 6: thought they would. And they went on after that and 48 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 6: won ten of the next twelve games. That was actually 49 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 6: a really good season. Then for them ended up twelve 50 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 6: and five, beat Tampa Bay first round. 51 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 2: Of the playoffs. 52 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 6: As a matter of fact that year, and so I 53 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 6: came out of that game feeling a lot better than 54 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 6: you typically would come out of a game with a loss, 55 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 6: because I saw some things that made me think they 56 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 6: got something. What are the storylines I guess coming out 57 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 6: of this game for you, guys, Let's go around the 58 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 6: table box. 59 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 2: Let's start with you. 60 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 3: Man. 61 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 5: I have so many, but I'll try to save some 62 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 5: for the rest of my castmates here. But I believe 63 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 5: in Shoddy. You know, he's a first year head coach, 64 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 5: and he did a lot right in this first go. 65 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 5: There's many more games that he has to show up 66 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 5: and kind of prove himself. But in terms of guys 67 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 5: being ready to play, they were ready. If there's some 68 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 5: adversities that you run into, like an hour long rain delay, 69 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 5: and he said, hey, guys, we're gonna be and then 70 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 5: the defense comes out and play better after that, and 71 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 5: they stay motivated throughout the entire game. And then there's this, well, guys, 72 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 5: we're gonna try to do better. Get motions and shifts involved. 73 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 5: We've been hearing for years now. Shot and said, hey, 74 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 5: we're gonna get motions and shifts involved. I'd be damn 75 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 5: emotions and shifts were involved. That's the first that's the 76 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 5: best first fifteen plays I've seen call in a loone 77 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 5: long time, and the Cowboys ran. They ran the football. 78 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 5: Javonte Williams got a little bit of faith in him now, 79 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 5: so plenty happened. I got so much more to say, 80 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 5: but please castmates take away. 81 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 7: I would say for me, it is just the fact 82 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 7: that we came out of that game and personally watching 83 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 7: how they played, I'm like, this is not a soft team. 84 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 7: They're here to compete. They're aggressive, and I love that 85 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 7: the way that they went in there and didn't allow 86 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 7: them to how do you say that bullied them? Sure, 87 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 7: you know, they fought back and it all started with 88 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 7: that spit and then it just got. 89 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 8: More interested after all that. 90 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 7: And I'm sure we'll get into that at some point, 91 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 7: but I just I just love their aggressiveness and that's 92 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 7: something that I feel the Cowboys have lacked in previous years, 93 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,119 Speaker 7: where you don't see that fire inside them and it's 94 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 7: motivate and I I'm police honestly, despite the result, I 95 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 7: think we all feel this way. There's a lot of 96 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 7: positive that came out of that game. Despite the loss. 97 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 3: I don't believe in moral victories. I picked this football 98 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 3: team to win twenty four to twenty seven to twenty four. 99 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 3: If they find a way to drive the ball at 100 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 3: the end and get that touchdown, they win that game 101 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 3: twenty seven to twenty four. I feel like you'll never 102 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: ever have a better opportunity to beat a defending Super 103 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 3: Bowl championship team in their own backyard. Won't happen again. 104 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 3: Everything lined up for you right last night. You just 105 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 3: weren't good enough to go take it from them. You 106 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 3: tried to take it from them, But you've got to 107 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 3: figure out ways to finish better. You got to finish 108 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 3: out not you got to figure out, hey, how the 109 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 3: second half defense after the weather delay, why did you play? 110 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 3: Why did you play that way and not play that 111 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 3: way in the first half? Offense? Why do you move 112 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 3: in the ball up and down the field before the 113 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 3: weather delay and after the weather delay? You have to 114 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: the most awful series you can imagine. You know, on offense, 115 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 3: you know it's this thing is this thing is was 116 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 3: good enough to win last night, and you didn't get 117 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 3: it done. And that's the disappointing thing. Right now, he 118 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 3: talks about championship opportunities, That was a championship opportunity for 119 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 3: you to go out there and show the world that you, 120 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 3: in fact can play toe to toe with the Philadelphiicals 121 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,559 Speaker 3: because nobody really believed that you could. You believed you could, 122 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: but you're not good enough finishing, and you better learn 123 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: how to finish these games. There's gonna be a lot 124 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 3: more tougher ones down the road. 125 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 4: No doubt. 126 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 6: I think that's really the key to this thing. Is 127 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 6: regardless of whether you believe it's a moral victory or not, 128 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 6: I agree with you. I don't believe in moral victories. 129 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 6: I do think there are positive things you can take 130 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 6: out of a ball game, though, and that's my point. 131 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 6: I think last night there was some positive things. But 132 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 6: as you said, Brian, if they don't learn how to finish, 133 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 6: what we will talk about the story of this team 134 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 6: for this season will be they were just not good enough, 135 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 6: right that they were just good enough to be in 136 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 6: the games, not good enough to finish. That's the key, 137 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 6: and I think last night we saw that a couple 138 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 6: of times. 139 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 2: Let's talk about the do you have something about you 140 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 2: want to throw on? 141 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 5: Luckily, for Dallas, I think they just have to learn 142 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 5: how to play more soundly. I think they have the 143 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 5: talent to be teams like this. But look at Philly, right, 144 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 5: we'll just talk about all the guys they lost, but 145 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 5: they still just found a way to kind of wield 146 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 5: themselves at the end. And that's just coming from winning games. 147 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 5: You just have to know how to win close games 148 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 5: like that. And the Cowboys, man, I have there right now. 149 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 5: The Cowboys are a very young team. Having one very 150 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 5: much is not in their DNA. Brian bros. But at 151 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 5: some point, damn man, why does that word sound so 152 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 5: nasty this morning? 153 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: It's nasty all the time. 154 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 3: It's just that's crazy. 155 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 5: But please go ahead there. 156 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 6: Well, here's where I want to go with that, because 157 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 6: I think there were a couple of moments. And I 158 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 6: pause a little bit in doing this because I think 159 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 6: in the in a game like an NFL football game, 160 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 6: there are so many moments. It's hard sometimes to boil 161 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 6: it down to a play or two. But I really 162 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 6: do believe last night there were this game hinged on 163 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 6: a couple of plays. And I want to know from 164 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 6: you guys, which you think was the most costly for Dallas. 165 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 6: You got the Miles Sanders fumble. If they go and 166 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 6: they score it in that play, even if they get 167 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 6: a field goal. It changes how they play in that 168 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 6: last series when they have the ball, if they're only 169 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 6: down by one point and they got a kicker that 170 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 6: can kick it. 171 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: From the moon right. The other could be obviously ceedee lamb. 172 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 6: And you can take your pick of which drop you 173 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 6: think was most costly, or you could talk about other 174 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 6: things that you might have thought were costly for the Cowboys. 175 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 6: But what do you think was the most costly moment 176 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 6: for the Cowboys that if it would have gone the 177 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 6: other way, they had a much better chance they were 178 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 6: going to win this game. 179 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 5: Sanders in the red zone, Ferguson dropping six, like either 180 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 5: one of those go just for just hang on to it. 181 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 5: It's hitting you right. And let me just take this 182 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 5: moment to praise Dak. You know, there are a lot 183 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 5: of people that thought Dak would be rusty, that maybe 184 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 5: you wouldn't play a play a great game. Dak finished 185 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 5: with one hundred and eighty eight yards, but we had 186 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 5: like one hundred and twenty yards worth of drop, so 187 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 5: you could you could assume that Dak would be in 188 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 5: the three hundred somewhere. 189 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 2: And cpis that got you and some movies. 190 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 5: And some George Pickers. Pis so that these are passes 191 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 5: that are hitting players in the hands. Now, maybe this 192 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 5: is a conversation you got to have about camping. How 193 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 5: hard do you go in camp? And you know you 194 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 5: can't hit your star players, but maybe you got to 195 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 5: practice some of that getting hit and catching the football. 196 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 5: You have to you know, you can't knock your knock 197 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 5: your players out of camp or whatnot. But this is 198 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 5: maybe a conversation Shoty has to have moving forward or whatnot. 199 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 5: But just in general, Miles Sanders breaking breaking the fifty 200 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 5: yard run, you can't fumble the ball right after that. 201 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 5: You can't do it. And this made everybody feel like, hey, 202 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 5: jayda On Blue probably wouldn't have done that. 203 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 6: So first of all, Jada Jayden Blue, you wouldn't got caught. 204 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 6: Probably don't get caught. 205 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,199 Speaker 5: Zach Bond does not catch jayda On Blue with a 206 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 5: five yard head start, and I'm sure jayda On Blue 207 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 5: doesn't fumble. But I think the head coach now goes, Okay, 208 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 5: Javonte Williams is hot. 209 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 2: College while we bringing up old stuff. 210 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 5: When I said, what are we doing? 211 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 2: That's old stuff? I don't know what's going on, but 212 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: to be yes, that was college college. 213 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 5: That was a lot. 214 00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: You do the same things you did in college. 215 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 5: I don't but the Cowboys, I think we're talented enough 216 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 5: to do it. But can I give if George Pickens 217 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 5: wouldn't have done the goofy little, you know what I mean. 218 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: So we haven't slept, so it is, you. 219 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 3: Know, I kind of feel like that this is where 220 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 3: this is. This is the unfortunate thing that happens to 221 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 3: you in games like this because you talk about Sanders 222 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 3: fumbling the ball. Sanders has had a history of it. Sure, 223 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 3: but your best player missed the block that caused the fumble. 224 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 3: Your best player did not secure the down lineman, your 225 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 3: best offensive lineman didn't secure his block, and you know, 226 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 3: and then substantially that's what happens with the play that 227 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 3: you know, his guy gets over, knocks the ball loose. 228 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 3: Now you talk about the stuff with with what happened 229 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 3: with CD. You know, he's having a whale of a 230 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: game coming back to the football, getting the ball. Then 231 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 3: he drops a slant, then he drops an inside route, 232 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: and then you know they didn't call the last play, 233 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 3: the fourth and two player drop. But unfortunately, though you know, 234 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 3: you've got to make these plays, You've got to find 235 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 3: a way, and when of your best players are the 236 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 3: ones that are causing you to have to deal with setbacks, 237 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 3: that's a really, really hard thing to deal with when 238 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 3: you're a football team because you're relying on these guys. 239 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 3: They're your best players for a reason, and when they're 240 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 3: not delivering that way, you're going to find ways to 241 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 3: lose games. 242 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 7: I mean, to me, the biggest play was that towards 243 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 7: the end, the last one with Ceedee Lamb where he 244 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 7: misses the ball and doesn't catch it. And yes, there 245 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 7: are a combination of plays that happened before all of 246 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 7: that to get to that point where you're stuck with 247 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 7: that score. But just like Brian mentioned, you're talking about 248 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 7: your start wide receiver who got paid a couple of 249 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 7: years when was it a couple of years, a couple 250 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 7: of years ago now, but still your star wide receiver 251 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 7: that you expect him to be able to make those plays. 252 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 7: So and again, he talked about it in the locker room. 253 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 8: He owned up to it. He didn't came up with. 254 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 7: Excuses or anything. I wouldn't expect nothing less than from him. 255 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 7: But at the same time, you can't allow those things 256 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 7: to happen. You got to be able to catch that 257 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 7: ball and make that play, and that costs the game 258 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,599 Speaker 7: right there, because despite everything that happened prior to that, 259 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 7: you still had a chance to win that football game. 260 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 6: It was just amazing to me how much that game 261 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 6: was a tail of two halves in so many ways 262 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 6: for the offenses, both offenses, for both defenses. For CD, 263 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 6: like you just go down the list, and this game 264 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,719 Speaker 6: was so different pre rain delay and post reign. It 265 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 6: was almost like you watched two different games because after 266 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 6: that rain delay, everything that was happening before it flipped 267 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 6: and was doing the exact opposite. 268 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 3: I think the rain delay helped Dallas's defense, I agree. 269 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 3: I think it allowed them to sit there for an 270 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 3: hour and kind of figure out what they needed to 271 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 3: do because the first half contained was poor. You know, guys, 272 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 3: we've talked about breakdowns. How do you rush Jordan my Allotta? 273 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 3: You know, in the second half or after the weather delay, 274 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 3: they started rushing where they were getting more opportunities to 275 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 3: get around him, and they weren't letting it. They weren't 276 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 3: just rushing down the middle. They they figured some things 277 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 3: out and guys, instead of spinning inside, you know, and 278 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 3: leaving the whole side of the field. The door open 279 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 3: there for Jalen Hurts to run. They were able to 280 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 3: they you know, they played better contained the balls that 281 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,719 Speaker 3: he got to the sidelines on he wasn't able to 282 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 3: turn the corner. He had to throw a couple of 283 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 3: them out of bounce he got off the field. You know, 284 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 3: there was some just some really some wasted opportunities. And 285 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,439 Speaker 3: you're right, Derek, it was a it was a strange 286 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 3: game from pre weather delay to post weather delay. It 287 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 3: just you know, one team kind of one both defenses 288 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 3: kind of figured things out, and then the offenses were 289 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 3: kind of left thinking, Okay, what just happened to us? 290 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 3: And that's that's the unfortunate thing, Brian. 291 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 5: The last drive made me sick. Of course, the seedee 292 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 5: lamb drops made us all sick of cour. But if 293 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 5: you're gonna be characterized as a defense that bend and 294 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,599 Speaker 5: you don't break, then you have to put points on 295 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 5: the board when you have those those chances. Here, just 296 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 5: looking at the Eagles put up three points in the 297 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 5: whole second half, the whole second half. So if you 298 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 5: go into that second half up by three or up 299 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 5: by six, you play that game totally different. Now you 300 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 5: don't want to give the Eagles the luxury of okay, 301 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 5: we'll just handing the ball to Saquana. We'll just you know, 302 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 5: scramble around. You want to make Jalen Hurts have to 303 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 5: throw into passing windows that the Cowboys DBS did a 304 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 5: really good job of not of not giving them. The 305 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,599 Speaker 5: Cowboys DB's covered real well. I know we can, you 306 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 5: know we can. We can fuss about the edges and 307 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 5: the pass rush and all that. I think that's an 308 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 5: adjustment that could be made. 309 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 7: He surprised me based on everything we he talked Hi 310 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 7: about during training camp and leading up to this and 311 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 7: the injury and all that. 312 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 8: I thought he had a pretty good game. 313 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 5: All I wanted is for Flus to go, all right, y'all, 314 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 5: just play contained please, or quarterback spot you know, linebackers 315 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 5: don't turn you back to them and all this kind 316 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 5: of stuff. If you just make those adjustments, Jayla Hurts 317 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 5: wasn't throwing the ball, damn field AJ Brown did. If 318 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 5: AJ Brown doesn't get a target to the to the 319 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 5: fourth quarter. 320 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 2: To the final what flying final. 321 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 5: Last play, you're supposed to win that game. So just 322 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 5: one one touchdown changes everything. So Miles Sanders, ma'am, did. 323 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 8: You miss a past rush? 324 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 6: We got a. 325 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 7: Right now. 326 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 5: We we went into this thing with five guys. Dante 327 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 5: File is the best guy. There's nobody else that matters, 328 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 5: So now we ain't missing nobody. 329 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 2: All right, We're gonna take our first break. 330 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 6: When we come back, We're going to dive into this 331 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 6: offense and talk a little bit about Dak Prescott.

All right, 399 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 6: let's talk about Dak Prescott. He was twenty one to 400 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 6: thirty four, sixty two percent completion rate, one hundred and 401 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 6: eighty eight yard zero, touchdown, zero in receptions, the seventy 402 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 6: six point six rating, and guess what, none of that 403 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 6: tells you just how good he was in that game yesterday. 404 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: When I tell you, he was. 405 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 6: Dotting them up and he was putting balls on the 406 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 6: money that guys didn't quite catch as often as they 407 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 6: should have. His numbers should have been a lot higher. 408 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 6: But even at that, you saw some of the running, 409 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 6: you saw some of the elusiveness. I mean, this was 410 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 6: this was the best of Dak Prescott that we saw yesterday. 411 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 6: And quite frankly, I'll tell you this, I actually like, well, 412 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 6: nobody's really talking about it, but how he handled himself 413 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 6: in the spitting incident, I think, and I'd heard some 414 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 6: of this, like some people that had been around Dak 415 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 6: last week, they were like, that has a different level 416 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 6: of confidence this year, going into this year, he is 417 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 6: feeling this in a way that it's more palpable than 418 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 6: it's been in past years, and that moment with the 419 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 6: whole spitting the way he looked across the Jaalen Carter 420 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 6: and then stepped between his linemen to get to him, like, yeah, bro, 421 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 6: I didn't I wasn't spit at you, man, I'm not 422 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 6: running from you. You know. It was just there was 423 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 6: a level of confidence that I think was coming from him, 424 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 6: and then he played like that. What did you guys 425 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,239 Speaker 6: think of Dak Prescott last night? 426 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 5: I wonder did that come from his confidence in Shoddy 427 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 5: calling plays and it being different than what it would 428 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 5: be last year. If you're Dak and last year you're 429 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 5: like one of the top quarterbacks in the window throws, Brian, 430 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 5: that's he's and that's not a great thing. You don't 431 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 5: want to be a top tier quarterback in that that 432 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 5: that round there. You want to have wide open throws. 433 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 5: You want to have the easy throws, right. I just 434 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 5: wonder if Dak and Shoddy have had such a long 435 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 5: conversation and their plans working with each other is like, Hey, 436 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 5: this is what we're gonna do. We're gonna hide everything 437 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 5: and we're gonna go out and we're gonna show it. 438 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 5: And Dak just had a great, great faith in it. 439 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 5: Dak looked looked comfortable yesterday, like it didn't look too 440 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 5: big for him. Normally, Dak had that look in his eyes, 441 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 5: he'll be sweating in here. But Dak was dancing. Dak 442 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 5: was having fun. Dak was cool because he knew one 443 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 5: what he could do versus the Eagles. He's normally great 444 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 5: versus those guys. But just I think that this offense 445 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 5: where we're running motion, running motion gives us so many answers. 446 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 5: I know what you're if I know what you're doing, 447 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 5: and I'm the quarterback, that's half the battle. So when 448 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 5: you see, okay, well you get a Ferguson, drop a schoolmaker, 449 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 5: drop breavest man for it. Almost lost his helmet there, 450 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 5: but he could have called it if he had hung 451 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 5: on to it right ceedee lamb right on, like Dak 452 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 5: was in his own right, and maybe the the lady 453 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 5: kind of took him out over it a little bit 454 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 5: and you kind of lost a little bit of your 455 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 5: momentum there. But I feel confident moving you know, moving 456 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,360 Speaker 5: forward through the rest of the season that that Dak 457 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 5: and Shinty, as long as they're on the same page, 458 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 5: I think you're gonna get good. Dak all year. 459 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 7: He was so impressive to me remembering how how long 460 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 7: it's been. What week was it last year that he 461 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 7: went out. 462 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 8: I don't remember the game somewhere around. 463 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 7: Been a long time since he's been out on the 464 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 7: field playing a real football game. We didn't see him 465 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 7: in the preseason, so the expectation, regardless of him being 466 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 7: a ten year veteran, the expectation is still that you're 467 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 7: gonna be rusty, You're gonna go out there and make 468 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 7: some mistakes. And he looked so good the way he's 469 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 7: always been confident, but even in the way that he 470 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 7: was able to scape, that's what should have been a sack, 471 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 7: and we laughed about it in the press boxes. 472 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 8: He's like, oh, he still looked a little slow, but 473 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 8: still he looked good. 474 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 6: He was like, I feel I feel a little slow. 475 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 6: I think, he said, I think I heard a quote 476 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 6: he said that it comes. 477 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 7: With the age, you know, but but it's still it 478 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 7: was a really good play and the fact that he 479 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 7: was able to make that play so again, very clean 480 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 7: game for him. Didn't go out there and start throwing 481 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 7: the ball giving it away. He was very poised, confident 482 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 7: and looked really good in his mobility and looks one 483 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 7: hundred percent healthy. You always wonder, okay, how healthy are 484 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 7: you really? You say that you feel great, but how 485 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 7: good are you really? 486 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 8: And it was great. It's very uh. 487 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 7: You say no moral victories here, Brian, But to me, 488 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 7: I'm not saying it's a moral victory. 489 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 2: But it's still. 490 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 8: A lot of a lot of good things. 491 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 10: I did win. 492 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 3: Everybody here picked him to win. Well, Amber did not. 493 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 2: She wrote the fence. She wrote the fence, but he 494 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: was kind of like they could win or lose. That's 495 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 2: how she went at it. 496 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 8: But you know, the thing I went from a lot 497 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 8: of positive things came sure. 498 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 5: The one thing I want Dak to kind of think 499 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 5: about work on fix and he knows himself way better 500 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 5: than me, is even when Pickens is not open, he's 501 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 5: still kind of open. I think that that wants guys 502 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 5: to be clearly open, and then he gets the balls on. 503 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 5: I think Pickens isn't gonna be a guy that's gonna 504 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 5: lose a bunch of defenders with his route running or 505 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 5: even running running past guys. Right, make Pickens make those 506 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 5: catches because that's what he's really good at, tracking the football, 507 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 5: catching the ball, the passes that he did catch. It 508 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 5: was a defender on him. He just caught him anyway. 509 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 5: So I just want Dak to have faith in him 510 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 5: that that's how he wins. Lamb wins differently, pickings wins differently, 511 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 5: for wins differently. 512 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 3: Said they could have got so much more out of 513 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 3: this game planned yesterday. They really could have down it 514 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: really could have. 515 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 5: What's something good that happen? Brian say? Something good? It 516 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,479 Speaker 5: had was one thing good? 517 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 3: Six plays fifty three yards, nine plays sixty four yards, 518 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 3: ten plays thirty one yards, seven plays twenty nine yards. Okay, 519 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 3: all scoring drives. Then you have the fun with your 520 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 3: nine plays sixty four. They did not have an answer 521 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 3: for you. They did not have an answer for you yesterday. 522 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 3: And we're all we're singing the praises of Dak Prescott, 523 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 3: and rightfully so. But you could have gotten more out 524 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 3: of this thing. What happened the other drives? You know, 525 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 3: what were you not doing? What were you not going? 526 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 3: Did you not highlight your plays? Did you not circle? 527 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 3: Did you and Dak not come to an agreement? I 528 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 3: mean you had some drops along the way. I get it, 529 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 3: there were some big plays left out there. But man 530 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 3: to me, there could have been more emotions. There could 531 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 3: have been more attacking with Turpin, there could have been 532 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 3: more getting pickings involved. There could have been you know, 533 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 3: Ferguson wasn't having a great game. You know, none of 534 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,360 Speaker 3: the tight ends were really having it. So figure out 535 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 3: something else. Go hand the ball to Turpin, you know, 536 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 3: throw the ball, to throw the ball a little bit 537 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 3: more to Pickens. You know, I think to me that 538 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 3: this offense the first fifteen and really to the first 539 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 3: quarter and maybe the first half was what you're thinking, like, Man, 540 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 3: this thing has got a chance to be really, really 541 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 3: damn good. And then all of a sudden the second half, 542 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 3: when you needed that, when you needed to be able 543 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 3: to do it, you couldn't dial it up like you 544 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 3: did the first half. Something was left on the field 545 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 3: and it wasn't all drops. The play callers got to 546 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 3: be better. The quarterback's got to be better, the receiver's 547 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 3: got to be everybody's got to be better. But this 548 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 3: this offense has more capabilities than they showed last night. 549 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 5: Brian, You're not wrong, but I'll never take away from 550 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 5: CD's thirteen targets just to give Turf and some like if. 551 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 3: The no no no, I'm just saying I'm just saying no. 552 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 3: But if you're in a situation you like, you say, 553 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 3: make make them have to defend everybody, make them have 554 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 3: to defend Pickens. 555 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 5: But if they can't defend Lamb, you just keep going 556 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 5: to Lamb. 557 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 3: Well yeah, that's what I'm saying though, But they kept 558 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 3: going to Lamb and then you know they had he 559 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 3: had the drops. Unfortunately he had drops. I think you 560 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 3: have to find a way to get Pickens involved as well. 561 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 3: I don't think Pikets could go into a game and 562 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 3: have four targets for and have three receptions. 563 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 5: So now let me ask you, Brown, what do you 564 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 5: take away from to get those other guys going? Do 565 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 5: you run the ball really? 566 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 3: Just to get the really good teams, the really good 567 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,479 Speaker 3: offensive teams. Rams find ways to get pook into Coup involved. 568 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 3: They find ways to get they find ways to get 569 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 3: all their guys in the game, and they make you 570 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 3: could have you could have wore the Eagles out last 571 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 3: night on defense. 572 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,360 Speaker 5: Philly had the ball for a long time too. Broh 573 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 5: it has another thing too. 574 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, there's nothing so well that Dallas's defense played 575 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 3: better after after the second the uh, the rain delay. 576 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 3: I mean they they the first half, I mean Dallas 577 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 3: was I'm just saying, though you needed two more drives, 578 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 3: you needed two more drives, and you've got to be 579 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: able to dial that back up. You can't do it 580 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 3: for just the three quarters of the game. You know 581 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 3: that game was for taken last night. It really was. 582 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't I don't disagree with you, Brian. 583 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 6: I guess the way I look at it is if 584 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 6: this were week eight, if this were week ten, so 585 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 6: I would be a lot more like what what is that? 586 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 14: Like? 587 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 2: It's week one of a new coach, new scheme. 588 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 6: And then so that's how I can say, Okay, there 589 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 6: was certainly opportunities that they missed, and they certainly had 590 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 6: an opportunity to win that game and didn't take advantage 591 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 6: of it. 592 00:25:58,400 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 2: And you call those things. 593 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 6: Out, But when I look at it in a total 594 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 6: like the total package, I walk away from it thinking 595 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 6: there were more positive things than negative things. And I 596 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,919 Speaker 6: feel like the negative things if you can fix them, 597 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,959 Speaker 6: And I think you did a good job ran there 598 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 6: of laying out what those things are. 599 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 2: I think those things are fixable. 600 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 6: And so now we get to see how does this 601 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 6: coach adapt, does he does he see the things that 602 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 6: that we're talking about and say, you know, I could 603 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 6: do a little bit more of a turp and I 604 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 6: could do a little bit more here, I can maybe 605 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 6: do a little bit less here. Does he see those 606 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 6: things and now adjust to it and now get his 607 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,719 Speaker 6: team on a roll, or does he continue to make 608 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 6: the same mistakes? 609 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 3: Really good right if you're getting physicality with your offensive 610 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 3: line blocking the way they did. And there were there 611 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 3: were times in that game last night where we in 612 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 3: the past those plays that went into the line of scrimmage. 613 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 3: It was at the line of scrimmage, it was a 614 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 3: zero or a negative play and it turns into a 615 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 3: three or four yard run. You know, there's things that 616 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 3: you could Absolutely this offensive line did a great job. 617 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 3: I feel like at times moving people on the line 618 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 3: of scrimmage, you know, and I don't care who was 619 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 3: in or out for the Philadelphia Eagles, I don't care. 620 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 3: If I'm watching the tape and you're moving guys to 621 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage, I'm encouraged by that. But I'm 622 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 3: saying to me, I just felt like that what was 623 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 3: so frustrating last night was that game was for the 624 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 3: taken and I, and and you and and if you 625 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 3: want to be a great team, you got to go 626 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 3: in someone's backyard and take it from them. And they 627 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 3: did for three quarters of that game. They might have 628 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 3: been the better team. They might have been the better team. 629 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 3: But but you know, unfortunately though, that's the super Bowl 630 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 3: defending super Bowl champs, you know, And and they and 631 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 3: they were found a way to get it done at 632 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 3: the end, and you didn't. And that, that to me, 633 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 3: is the most disappointing thing, is that you you had 634 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 3: a good game plan, you executed for the most part, 635 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 3: but when it came time to really finish this thing off, 636 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 3: you couldn't do it. That's the disappointing thing. And I 637 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 3: don't want that to be something that in a week 638 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 3: eight all of sudden we look up and we go, oh, oh, well, 639 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 3: remember in week one when they didn't finish. It's still 640 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 3: the same problems that they got. Hopefully that'll change. 641 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 5: Pickings and Jada and Blue Brian basically like, if I 642 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 5: had to get somebody else more involved, it would be 643 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 5: give more to Pickins and find out whatever y'all gonna do, 644 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 5: running back to and make Blue. 645 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 7: That's exactly what is motivating in the sense that we 646 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 7: all feel that we didn't see enough of certain players. 647 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 7: So it's not like they showed you everything that they've 648 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 7: got or that they can't do, and you're still being like, 649 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 7: oh man, they couldn't. No, you still have players that 650 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 7: you saw them play and if you just have to 651 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 7: involve them a lot more. 652 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 8: In the game. 653 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 7: And I get like preseason very different than the regular season. 654 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 7: But going back to that and talking about a first 655 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 7: time head coach, you look at how the preseason went 656 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 7: starters versus you know, players are trying to make the team, 657 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 7: but still it left a lot on the table those 658 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 7: first two preseasons of the game, preseason. I'm starting what 659 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 7: I was doing yesterday. I couldn't speak yesterday. But those 660 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 7: first two games of the preseason, a lot of things 661 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 7: went wrong, was bad, So it could have gone down 662 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 7: the same way for this first game of the regular season, 663 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 7: where you're left with, man, what are we doing here? 664 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 8: How are you fixing that? 665 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 7: I thought it was a strong start. We all agree 666 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 7: with you, Brian. They should have won that game based 667 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 7: on how they were performing. I don't know what happened 668 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 7: when they came back from the rein delayed. 669 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 3: The defense was ready to play the odd that way 670 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 3: was it And that's and that's my issue right now 671 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 3: is and and he even talked about that in the 672 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 3: post game. He talked about being able to compliment each 673 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 3: other in the way that they play and get them 674 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 3: both play at the same time. You know, that team 675 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 3: offensively can be really really good. It can be really 676 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 3: really good. And again, that's and a lot of it 677 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 3: I think starts because of those three inside guys. You know, Stell, 678 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 3: when you watch Steel on tape, you're gonna close your eyes. 679 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 3: You're gonna close your eyes a little bit. Fotch. I 680 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 3: know you're watch the offensive line. I think there's some 681 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 3: things with Guidon, but still it's a little crazy. But 682 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 3: those three inside guys you got, that's literally they were 683 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 3: moving bodies. They were moving bodies. And I can if 684 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 3: you tell me that I have the ability to move bodies, 685 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 3: I will find a way to get everybody else involved. 686 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 3: And just say, I feel like they left a really 687 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 3: good opportunity to get and I'm all for CD. I 688 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 3: think it's one of your best players, but i'd also 689 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 3: get George Pickens of ball that get Turp and involved. 690 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 3: They didn't, they didn't stop right there. Yeh, yeah, they 691 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 3: just didn't. 692 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 6: I will also say you mentioned that offensive line. That 693 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 6: interior part of the offensive line. I think Javonte Williams 694 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 6: is a very very nice compliment to what they want 695 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 6: to do there. 696 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 2: Physical power, physical runner. 697 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, and what you saw last night in those fifteen 698 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 6: attempts fifty four yards, two touchdowns, was that they don't 699 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 6: have a problem in short yardage. No, they don't have 700 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 6: a problem and goal line, Like we've seen that be 701 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 6: a problem over the last several years at times, that 702 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 6: was not a problem last night. They can move the 703 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 6: ball because they have guys in interior that move bodies, 704 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 6: and they have a running back that when he hits 705 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 6: that line, he's going forward and he's gonna get you 706 00:30:58,120 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 6: those X yards. At one time when he dragged the 707 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 6: entire power for an additional five yards, like that's what 708 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 6: I was like, that you got yourself a power running 709 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,239 Speaker 6: back Heaven, and that's a good thing. 710 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, we haven't seen that since like twenty sixteen. 711 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 6: Was absolutely absolutely, we're gonna take our final break, We're 712 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 6: going to come back. Let's talk a little bit about 713 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 6: this defense. And I want want to ask the question. 714 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 6: I know there's been a lot of talking to the Cowboys. 715 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 6: Run defense was poor last night. My question will be 716 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 6: was it really a matter of the run defense or 717 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 6: was this an issue of scheme and not having the 718 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 6: right things in place in order to stop a running quarterback. 719 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 6: We'll talk about that when we come back.

At the start, we got 774 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,439 Speaker 6: about ten minutes here. Let's talk about the defensive side 775 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 6: of the ball. I've seen and heard so many tweets 776 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 6: and radio shows this morning where people are just flippantly 777 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 6: saying the Cowboys run defenses is poor. And as I 778 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 6: looked at the numbers last night, I really didn't think 779 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 6: I will grant me. Let me say, as a preference 780 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 6: to that, as you're watching the game, it felt like 781 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 6: Saquon was actually playing better than the final stats say 782 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 6: at the end of the night he had eighteen attempts 783 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 6: sixty yards, a three point three average, and one touchdown. 784 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 6: When you hold Saquon Barkley and that. 785 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 3: One touchdown, by the way, it was, it really was. 786 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 6: When you hold him to eighteen carries for sixty yards 787 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 6: and a three point three average, that is a phenomenal 788 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,320 Speaker 6: day against the run. It is my contention this was 789 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 6: not a poor run defense that we saw last night 790 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 6: from the Cowboys. What we saw was and an ability 791 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 6: to be able to handle a running quarterback of the 792 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:15,919 Speaker 6: ilk of Jalen Hurts. 793 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:17,839 Speaker 5: What do you guys think I would love to get 794 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 5: the numbers broken down. Saquon did go crazy in the 795 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 5: first half, but after the rain delayed, that's when the 796 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 5: Cowboys really buckled down. So towards the end, when you 797 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 5: look at the at the final number at it, you're like, 798 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 5: all right, they did kind of shut Saquan down. But 799 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,959 Speaker 5: to your point, this was really just Jalen Hurst running 800 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 5: around like the large rushing number that got to you 801 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 5: was Jalen Hurts running around? And I don't want to 802 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 5: come on here and say craze things by Jalen Hurst 803 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 5: may won won a game, won the Super Bowl. I 804 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 5: sound like I hate if I say craze things about 805 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 5: Jalen Hurt. But if you just blitch Jalen Hurts, if 806 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 5: you just blitch him, his eyes will come down and 807 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 5: he'll look around like he don't know what the hell 808 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 5: going on. Corners did great, I get it. But if 809 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 5: there was a spy and just some illusion of pressure 810 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 5: to make Jalen Hurts drop his eyes and run around, 811 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 5: I think you could have done so much. But I'm 812 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 5: just a dude that work on dos Cowboys dot Com 813 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 5: with a microphone. I don't know nothing, But I just 814 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 5: want to stop for a second and give Kenny Clark 815 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 5: a whole bunch of praise. If you take the trade away, 816 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 5: don't put him Clark versus Micah and draft picks. Just 817 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 5: look at Kenny Clark playing one text for you. What 818 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,360 Speaker 5: does he do he does to watch? He is so 819 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 5: fun to watch because he's so strong. He is square, 820 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 5: and I've had nightmares of past one text. Brian says, 821 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 5: names I don't want to say nobody names on this 822 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 5: platform of past one text flying back names if you 823 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 5: want to. Bro Mozie Smith used to fly backwards and 824 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 5: end up at the damn first down line right now, huh, 825 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 5: because I'd be getting sick of it back. 826 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: But you just gotta tell the truth. If you watch 827 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 2: the film and that's what you see, tell the truth. 828 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 5: Mazzie knows it. Last year, when it was like Carlos 829 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 5: Watkins and those guys, it was so much movement being generated, 830 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 5: you couldn't Sakuon Barkley would go untouched. Brian, we talked 831 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 5: about that. We would break it down, Sakuon Barkley going 832 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 5: untouched and then get him getting an additional thirty or 833 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 5: something yours. Kenny Clark is so square and so strong. 834 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 5: Double teams didn't didn't, didn't, didn't work at all. Then 835 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 5: Landon Dickerson won on one, giving him the work ladies 836 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 5: and jump. I know Kenny Clark ended up on like 837 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 5: numbers wise or like five tackles or something like that, 838 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 5: but it was much bigger than that. And what ultimately 839 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 5: happened is Solomon Thomas, who's what three hundred and five 840 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 5: pounds something like that, he was going to be your 841 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 5: first one tech. Solomon went back to B gap where 842 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 5: he belongs so well played well, so now you get 843 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:34,359 Speaker 5: a better Solomon. Thomas J. Towia did his thing. Your 844 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 5: A gap is fine when when Clark is out there 845 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 5: and Osa got better, one move made three other people better. 846 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 6: Now the argument is Michael might have made them, say, 847 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 6: those same players better, maybe in a DA way. 848 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 5: I don't know him. Michael and Mike has been on 849 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 5: this team before a while. People getting pushed around, I 850 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 5: don't know, but people ain't get pushed around when when 851 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,439 Speaker 5: Kenny Clark is an eight gap I'm a fan of Clark. 852 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 5: Go ahead, Broan please, if you just I talked all 853 00:37:58,360 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 5: day by Ken Clark. 854 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 3: If you're one of those guys you can that believes 855 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 3: in metrics, you just look at the metrics when he 856 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 3: was on the field. Their defense was only giving up 857 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 3: two point eight yards of carry. That's all you need 858 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 3: to know. Everybody else was in. 859 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 2: The four to twos and we just keep them on 860 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 2: the field the whole time. 861 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 3: Five you know you mean, now, look at some of 862 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 3: your edge rushers there. You know your edge rushers with 863 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 3: with Donovanezeraku, they are five yards of carry when he 864 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 3: was on the field. Fowler was six over six yards 865 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 3: of carry when he was on the field. There's where 866 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 3: you go. You know, for so many years we've blamed 867 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 3: defensive tackle play for what's going on in the run defense. Here, 868 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 3: it's really about the front seven. Really, it's really if 869 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 3: you can't if you cannot hold blocks and cannot set 870 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 3: the edge, and you you decide that you're going to 871 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 3: gamble or take a take a gap that you shouldn't take, 872 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 3: or not play your scheme, you're going to give up 873 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:48,359 Speaker 3: plays in the running game, and you're going to give 874 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 3: up the quarterback runs. You know, you're going to try 875 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 3: and spin your rushing and you're spinning sides to say 876 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 3: outside contained and now the quarterback's got an avenue to 877 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 3: get out and run. That's that's that's you, that's on you. 878 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 3: That's scheme, that's technique. Those are all the things. I mean. 879 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 3: The coaches are trying to put you in position to 880 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 3: make plays. Like you say, look at Kenny Clark, They're 881 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 3: putting him in a position to make some plays. He's 882 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 3: making plays. That's where this is really all at. Don't 883 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 3: focus on defensive tackles all the time. Look at your safeties, 884 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 3: look at your corners, look at your linebackers, and look 885 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 3: at your edges, because that's where run defenses really and 886 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 3: Dallas was much better on it after the weather delay. 887 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 3: Much better fits, much better squareness of playing up front 888 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 3: and not getting turned or or gambling and going into 889 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 3: a gap they're not supposed to be in. Yeah. 890 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 2: Os Osa said that after the game. He was pretty clear. 891 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 6: When they asked him like what was the difference, he 892 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 6: was like, we just started playing sound defense. We started 893 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 6: our gap integrity was better. 894 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 3: Yep. 895 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 2: Coming out of that. And who knows why. 896 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 6: I don't know if they talked about it a lot 897 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 6: more or just guys just settled into being like, don't 898 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 6: play hero ball. 899 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 2: Do your job. You get on this defense. 900 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 6: Everybody's got a gap basically, like there isn't a lot 901 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 6: of decision making that has to go into it. You 902 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 6: just man your gap. And I think once they start 903 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 6: figuring that out as they did there after that rain delay, 904 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 6: I think this defense actually can give play some good football. 905 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 3: Did you did, Bosh? Would you tell me that we 906 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 3: need to see more James Houston? 907 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 5: We need to see more James Houston and Marshaan Kneeland. 908 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 5: How I asked the game was you know Dante Fowler 909 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 5: is the I guess he's the senior of the group 910 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 5: and he got paid in all this and donvinezarak who's 911 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 5: the second round pick. So I guess that would maybe 912 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 5: I don't say force you, but it'll maybe encourage you 913 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 5: to put those guys out there first. But if you're 914 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,280 Speaker 5: against a team that's that's gonna run the ball heavy 915 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 5: and you maybe need to be physical earlier, I would 916 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,880 Speaker 5: advocate for Marshaan Kneeland being out there early because Marshawn 917 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 5: showed me that he had a lot more balance, not 918 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,840 Speaker 5: just as a run defender, but Marshawn walked away with 919 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 5: the sack Brian Bross and pressures by vers Lane Johnson. 920 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 5: Just just that alone shouts out to Marshawn Kneeland there, 921 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,280 Speaker 5: So I would I would wonder if the run numbers 922 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 5: are a certain way with Fouler out there earlier and 923 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 5: Donvin out there earlier. I would just wonder if the 924 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,399 Speaker 5: Cowboys coaches would make a make a make a turn 925 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,760 Speaker 5: to maybe Kneeling going there early and then in passing downs, 926 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 5: then that's when you can run Fouler and Donovan out there. 927 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 2: What do you guys think about Sam last night? Because 928 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 2: he did show up. 929 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 6: I think there were plays where you saw him running 930 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 6: across the field and he was really kind of getting 931 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 6: I know, a couple plays there in the second half 932 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 6: he kind of ran down Jalen Hurts didn't allowhim to 933 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:18,879 Speaker 6: get the extra yards he was getting in the first half. 934 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 6: What did you guys think of him overalls as a 935 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 6: defender last night? 936 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 5: Sam is active, he's physical, but he still runs down 937 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 5: the middle of people. So Sam has to get that 938 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 5: get that two belt going, and he'll get that with 939 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 5: you know, reps and all this, but just one more, 940 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 5: you know, think about the ends in this definitely with 941 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 5: with Sam. That's a great set of tackles you played 942 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,760 Speaker 5: against yesterday, you know, like Maya, a lot of Lane Johnson. 943 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 5: That's just about it as good as gonna get. So 944 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 5: when you played more games, you're gonna run in the 945 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 5: worst guys and they'll definitely help a little bit. But uh, Sam, 946 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:47,400 Speaker 5: Sam played. 947 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 3: Fun for the most word, credited with nineteen snaps on 948 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 3: defense against the run, had five tackles in the run 949 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 3: defense and had two run stuffs, which would mean a 950 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:02,800 Speaker 3: negative play or at the line of scrimmage, So metrics 951 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 3: tell you that that he was pretty effective. I found 952 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 3: him playing both right and left in, and they also 953 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 3: kicked him inside and played him some nickel tackle when 954 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 3: they went on some pass rush stuff, and that affected 955 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:19,359 Speaker 3: how the Eagles like in that after the rain delay, 956 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 3: we keep saying after the rain delay, Yeah, but that's 957 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 3: that's where that's where I think this defense kind of 958 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 3: started picking some things up. They got a little bit better, 959 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 3: or they understood, Okay, we can't play hero ball like 960 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 3: everybody's talking about here. And Sam Williams, I felt playing 961 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 3: right in, left in and playing some nickel tackle was 962 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 3: pretty effective. Doing that one thing. 963 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:41,840 Speaker 7: Only that allows you to now get a better idea 964 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 7: of what you're working with moving on forward, because you 965 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 7: can't be waiting until the third quarter of the game 966 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 7: to make those types of adjustments. You got to start 967 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 7: off right off the bat. And we've seen it with 968 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 7: other teams that not necessarily have the best quarterback in 969 00:42:56,640 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 7: the league, but they're mobile, and some own mobile quarterback 970 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 7: are able to put on some yards on the on 971 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 7: the ground against the Cowboys defense. Again, different coaching staff, 972 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 7: different group, so but still you need to make the 973 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 7: I wanted to point out something real quick on Mazie, 974 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,880 Speaker 7: something that I liked hearing from Brian Schottenheimer because he 975 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 7: was asked after the game, Hey, why why was he inactive? 976 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 8: What happened there? 977 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 7: And he's straight up saying he needs to be more 978 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,399 Speaker 7: consistent in the way that he plays. And we're here 979 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 7: to compete every day. That's our motto. We got to 980 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 7: compete every day. So that sit out to me that hey, 981 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 7: you're not. He's not coming in here and just giving 982 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 7: people time play time just because of where they were 983 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 7: drafted or whatever. He's here to Hey, set up the standard, 984 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,239 Speaker 7: make the standard, and you got to show up and 985 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 7: compete and earn your spot and you're playing time to 986 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 7: be on the field. 987 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 6: One quick thing before we end the show, I don't 988 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 6: I think we have to give some kudos to this secondary. 989 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,759 Speaker 6: We mentioned it, but the fact that they held aj 990 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,959 Speaker 6: Brown one target, one catch, trade yards, held Devonte Smith 991 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,399 Speaker 6: the three targets, three catches for sixteen yards. There wasn't 992 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 6: a single receiver receiver other than Johan Dotson who had 993 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 6: to catch over nine yard yesterday. Dotson had the big 994 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 6: fifty one yard, but really that was the only real 995 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 6: big play they had in the passing game. And when 996 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 6: you look at the fact that that was that group 997 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 6: of cornerbacks that had not played together in the entire 998 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 6: training camp because Trayvon Diggs has been out injured, that 999 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 6: certainly gives me reason to believe the secondary can get 1000 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 6: even better with more time. 1001 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 2: What were your thoughts on that group? 1002 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, if you deal with Brown and you 1003 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 5: deal with you know, all these other guys, Smith and 1004 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 5: you know, Saque didn't really good. If they want to 1005 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 5: win with Dotson, cool, please by all means, knock yourself out. 1006 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 5: But besides elim giving up the one big play, the 1007 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 5: corners did well. Now what I what I would like 1008 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 5: Coach Flues if you go on blitz a dB, don't 1009 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 5: blich Tray because Trailer won tackle Blitz like Donald Trey 1010 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 5: had a good game. But Tray did fine until he 1011 00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 5: had a free run. Jayla Hurrison didn't. It wasn' would 1012 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 5: have got him right there, Zion children would have got 1013 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 5: him right there. 1014 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 3: But I don't know. 1015 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 5: But but yeah, yeah, your corners play funny. Deb's did good. 1016 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, betweeting. 1017 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 5: Trade agree. He just didn't tackle Michael. He didn't tackle 1018 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 5: Jayla Hurst a free rental. 1019 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 6: Him bow and all in all fairness, same thing happen. 1020 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 6: On the other side, Bland got back there too, and 1021 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 6: so it happens I got to bring down. 1022 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 3: I'm kind of in that mode right now where I'm 1023 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 3: happy that Digs is back and good for him. Listen, hey, 1024 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 3: congratulations all the things you're doing. This thing needs to 1025 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,800 Speaker 3: be Bland and Digs starting. And then if they go 1026 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 3: to Nickel, then figure out to go way to get 1027 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 3: Elim on the field. But Elam was the one that 1028 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 3: they went after yesterday. They found a way to kind 1029 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 3: of go after him. I think there were five targets, 1030 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 3: five catches, the big fifty one yard play was so 1031 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 3: to me, now it's just take Elim and if you're 1032 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 3: going to play nickel, let's see if they attack him 1033 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 3: in the nickel, maybe one of your guys will come back, 1034 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 3: maybe you could find a development. You know, nothing against Elim, 1035 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 3: but he you know, he did a nice job in 1036 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 3: training camp and all that. But this team needs Digs, 1037 00:45:58,080 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 3: they need Bland. They need to figure out though the 1038 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 3: nickel stuff too to make sure that they get their 1039 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 3: best three on the field all the time. 1040 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 6: The interesting part is they won't face better wide receiver 1041 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 6: groups than that yesterday too often this season, so to 1042 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:12,439 Speaker 6: do what they did yesterday, I think is a really 1043 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,799 Speaker 6: great sign for what you can expect for them as 1044 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 6: the season wears on. 1045 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 2: All Right, that's a rap.
