33
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, yeah, I don't I think he runs

34
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 3: out all the time.

35
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 2: I don't.

36
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 3: I don't think he You know, he had an opportunity

37
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 3: to get through the hole. He made a big time play.

38
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: But we had twelve carries. Twelve, I mean had like

39
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,399
Speaker 3: four catch ups. Yeah catch What we talked about was, hey,

40
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 3: is he going is he going to be that? Hey man,

41
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 3: I'm going to carry the team twenty twenty five? Care

42
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 3: is there a possibility for him to get there? And

43
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 3: I said, I like him to twelve and fifteen? You

44
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 3: did twelve and fifteen cares. I think that is a

45
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 3: sweet spot for Tony Poler, and I think he's going

46
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 3: to have a lot of explosive plays if you keep

47
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 3: him in that twelve to fifteen ranging you saw you

48
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 3: know twelve carries big time run.

49
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 4: Still, I still don't understand the you know series on

50
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 4: series off type deal. I mean, like, I still believe

51
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 4: that the man needs to be like, look, if I'm tired,

52
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 4: I'm tapping out.

53
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 3: Like I seen him the one time he was like Church,

54
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 3: I saw him a few times or not. I saw

55
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 3: a huge chapter head. He was turn around, hed his

56
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 3: little hand, say.

57
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: To him, you know the next thing, right, get a

58
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 2: little bit. I still though they're not.

59
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,119
Speaker 4: Using him to his full potential in my opinion. Yes,

60
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 4: he ran some hard yards out there. You could tell

61
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 4: he was frustrated on that touchdown run, so he was like, nah,

62
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 4: I can't, I gotta get in there. And he ran

63
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 4: through some casts, ran over Xavier Woods former Cowboy, dragged

64
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,399
Speaker 4: him into the in Zoe.

65
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 2: So it was a strong run. But I still feel

66
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 2: like they can get him the rock a little bit more.

67
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 2: I mean in the.

68
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 4: Passing game, like you can have plays where he's targeted,

69
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 4: not just like I'm running out of town.

70
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: Let me dump it off the polyp.

71
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,839
Speaker 4: Exactly, like, there's some things you can do to still

72
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 4: have him out there explosive, because if we don't, if

73
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 4: we look at the game, I mean, it was seventeen

74
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 4: seventeen ten in the fourth in the fourth quarter, in

75
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 4: the fourth quar and that's and that's when the run happened.

76
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: If this is why, this is why I'm confused though,

77
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 3: why you come here talking about this game.

78
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: Showed you so And I'm like, what what do you mean?

00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 3: They showed me my show my come on, look at okay,

80
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,440

117
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,799
Speaker 2: I gotta be practical.

118
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 3: Man, Emmy winners, ex players, all of that. I gotta

119
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 3: think these things through Otherwise people think I'm crazy. So hey,

120
00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 3: I've been doing pretty pretty good on my on my

121

122
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 3: gonna talk about them. We're not gonna talk about them yet.

123
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 3: What we're gonna do is we're gonna break down this offense.

124
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 3: We're gonna break down this defense.

125
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 2: And I won.

126
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 3: First of all, it's great weekend of football, as you

127
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 3: guys just said. But on Sunday in Carolina, Cowboys take

128
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 3: the field heavily favored.

129
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 2: Even announced that.

130
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 3: Jimmy Johnson going tell the bring up all the listen go.

131
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 3: That's meaning we will talk about that as well. But

132
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 3: the offense, guys, if y'all have to admit it got

133
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 3: off to a slow start, hit it. Yeah, it was

134
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 3: a slow day, all right.

135
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 2: But all in all, you did not get.

136
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 3: The same results from Ceedee Lamb. But I thought it

137
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 3: was a conservative effort to try and get guys the ball.

138
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 3: Tob just make a plain seeing as you continue speaking,

139
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 3: all right now, now you can kind of this is

140
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 3: why I'm feeling the way that I'm and we'll.

141
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: Get to it.

142
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 3: But that it don't make no sense. It don't it

143
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 3: don't it don't make it, don't make no sense. But

144
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, go ahead, sorry, So I mean, but

145
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 3: that being said, it was an overall effort. It took

146
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 3: parts of it, took every part of this team to

147
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 3: pull out this victory. And you saw some splashes definitely

148
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 3: on defense with the sack trip, you saw your man.

149
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 2: I don't know how you keep getting this right, but

150
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 2: n Bland did his day once and again.

151
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 3: But offensively for Dak Prescott, no turnovers. You can't ask

152
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 3: for anything more than that. Nah, you're right about that.

153
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 3: I mean, that's what it comes down to.

154
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 4: Like we all understand, you know, if the cliche goes,

155
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 4: anything can happen on any given Sunday, all that good stuff.

156
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 4: But offensively, when you look at it, that defense, I

157
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 4: feel like they should have shredded them apart, like they

158
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 4: actually had one of those games like he did against

159
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 4: the Giants. But you know, it happened and they were

160
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 4: able to play a little bit better than I thought

161
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 4: they would. But offensively, Dak took care of the football

162
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 4: two touchdowns out there. You rarely saw the ball in

163
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 4: Harm's way, which is a good sign for the Dallas

164
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 4: Cowboys going forward because you know, if you got that

165
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 4: defense on the other side, if you take care of

166
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 4: the football, you always gonna have an opportunity to games

167
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 4: out there.

168
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: So I like that part of it, CD Lamb.

169
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 4: He spread the ball around all the receivers, even a

170
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 4: tight end, So like you said, it was a concerned

171
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 4: effort out there and running the football. Wise, I think

172
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 4: they what they ended up total with over there, over

173
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 4: one hundred combined with him, and yes it was one

174
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 4: o seven. Like I said, I would still like to

175
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 4: see Pollard, you know, getting a little bit more involved,

176
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 4: not just you know, running the football, but you know,

177
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 4: just have some screenplays up for him so he can

178
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 4: get to get going that way.

179
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 2: But to me, man, when you look at it, I

180
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 2: don't know where I want to.

181
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 4: Put this this you know, this win, Like I'm glad

182
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 4: it was a good win overall, but I don't know

183
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 4: where I want to put it as far as my

184
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 4: concern do. I still feel like they're the top dogs

185
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 4: in the NFC when you put them in that tier

186
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 4: with San Francisco. We'll talk about that a little bit later,

187
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 4: but it was a good win overall. I mean, the

188
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 4: penalties were down and Carolina did what losing teams do.

189
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: I mean, when you talk about the penalties out there

190
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 4: that extended these drives, especially in a rins, what are

191
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 4: you doing?

192
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 2: You remember ninety six for the for the Panthers.

193
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 4: Mann Turvice, Yes, something was chilling, not even involved you

194
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 4: just out of nowhere, let me get this extra shove

195
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 4: in here, and then act surprised when the flag went up.

196
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 4: I mean, so losing teams do things to lose games.

197
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 4: That exactly what Carolina did, and the Cowboys were able

198
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 4: to take advantage.

199
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

200
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 3: Listen, it was seventeen to teen going into the fourth,

201
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 3: so you know, coming into the game. The conversation was

202
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 3: okay when they played New York, but we expected to happen. Happened,

203
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 3: all right, and it wouldn't make me feel any better

204
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 3: about it because we knew what New York was and

205
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 3: what they were going through at the time. Okay, we

206
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 3: watched Carolina play against Chicago the week before, No, it

207
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 3: was Chicago beat them then, and it helped them get

208
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 3: a better draft pick.

209
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:38,559
Speaker 2: Right.

210
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 3: We watched the Chicago without justin Right, So we watched

211
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 3: that game, right, so when we come into the week,

212
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 3: I'm like, you know what, all right, we should we

213
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 3: should do the same thing to the squad, no matter

214
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 3: how good they played. Right, if we come out and

215
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 3: we played the game that we're supposed to play, this

216
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 3: game shouldn't be close, all right. And we were coming

217
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 3: off a week where Brandon Cooks had all the targets,

218
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 3: all the catches. We saw Ceedee Lamb on one fifty

219
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 3: for the third game straight. We saw all these things

220
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 3: and we said, well, I said, I need to see

221
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 3: this continuously throughout the season, through the rest of the

222
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 3: season for me to feel comfortable about us going into

223
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 3: the playoffs. Because what happens when we get into playing

224
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 3: those real teams, the real competition, is our offense gets stagnant.

225
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 3: They get stagnant. Right, You don't see the explosive plays.

226
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 3: You see a lot of short throws. You can't figure

227
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 3: out a way to get into the end zone. And

228
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 3: then sometimes when the defense isn't playing from ahead right

229
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 3: and not able to get those sacks, that's when that

230
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 3: becomes an issue. And I still need to see more

231
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 3: in order to believe that that is no longer an issue,

232
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 3: because right now I don't all right. We went out,

233
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 3: we were efficient, we ran the ball Tony Pollard, you know,

234
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 3: he had a big time run. He had sixty one

235
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 3: total yards. Brandon Cooks had another three targets. He had

236
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 3: less targets than Jayaln Tober. Now, I've seen Jalen Tober

237
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 3: getting targeted in one on one like way too many

238
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 3: times for me to feel comfortable with what we will

239
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 3: possible in the future moving throughout the season. So yes,

240
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 3: we got to win, Like, even if we blew them

241
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 3: out wasn't gonna make me feel that much better about it.

242
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 3: It's about how we won and then who we got

243
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 3: involved in the game. I don't feel like we did

244
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 3: enough to get our big time players involved and continue

245
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 3: the momentum that we had last week against the Giants.

246
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 2: So tell me if I'm wrong.

247
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 3: If good teams are supposed to go in and handle

248
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 3: their business against bad.

249
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 2: Teams, you get it how you get it?

250
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 3: All right, it's by one whatever, But you go in

251
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: and you handle your business versus the bad teams, and

252
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 3: the Cowboys have shown you as of late. Obviously we

253
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 3: ran into the arizonas of the world, but the two

254
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 3: big teams that we ran into obviously what you're talking,

255
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 3: that's what you're talking from that standpoint. If you can't

256
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 3: when you play the upper echelon guys, you can't be

257
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 3: two or four in the red zone. You got to

258
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 3: you gotta execute, you gotta score when it's there for you.

259
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: Limited the limit the penalties, which we did in this game,

260
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 3: but the distribution of the ball. For me, what I

261
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 3: was watching was the cause that Mike McCarthy was making.

262
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 3: They were safe. We didn't see a lot of stretching,

263
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 3: stretching the field, but at the same time, Dak.

264
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 2: Was taking what the defense was given.

265
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 3: We never, to me, I never felt like we were

266
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 3: in any danger of losing this game.

267
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 2: Man, Am I wrong? You?

268
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 3: Did you ever feel like, Okay, there's a momentum shift

269
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 3: happening in this No, I didn't feel that. But I

270
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 3: watched the Texans game last year when Houston came here,

271
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 3: and it was one of those games where it was like,

272
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 3: it's dangerously close, right, we know we better than this squad,

273
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 3: but it's dangerously close, and Dak had to come out

274
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 3: at the end of the game and make a game

275
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 3: win and drive and going into the fourth quarter would

276
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 3: have been seventeen to ten without Carolina going out there

277
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 3: having all these crazy penalties. It's a lot closer than

278
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 3: it should have been for Carolina team where I think

279
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 3: we should have went out there and stumped them out,

280
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 3: all right, but we didn't, and it happens we've been

281
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 3: on the run.

282
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:48,559
Speaker 2: We won.

283
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 3: I don't want to sound so we ain't apologizing for

284
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 3: winning the game. I just know what's coming for us,

285
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 3: like up in with our upcoming schedule, right, I know

286
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 3: that December is gonna be tough. I know that even Thursday. However,

287
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 3: the Commanders look, it is a divisional game, and the

288
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks found that out this week when they played

289
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 3: against the Rams. It's divisionally. It don't matter who you are.

290
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 3: You just got to go in there and you know,

291
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,079
Speaker 3: put your best before. So I just want to see

292
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 3: more because I know that our schedule is getting tougher

293
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 3: moving through the end of thee. And let's let's flip

294
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 3: over to the other side of the ball, because I

295
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 3: think that you you can look at it two ways.

296
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 3: For the defense, defense dominated the line of scrimmage. As

297
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:31,239
Speaker 3: far as getting to the passer, all right, seven seven sacks,

298
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 3: a pick six. They picked another another pick six chosen

299
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 3: by you know, it's only one person in here on

300
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 3: this podcast when we did the pod picks that picked

301
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 3: the Ron Bland to be the guy to be the

302
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:52,839
Speaker 3: guy who gets the first defensive touchdowns.

303
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 2: Danny.

304
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 3: I got lifkey too, by the way, so you know

305
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 3: the Nostra domins over there, and took all the.

306
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 2: Way to go out on the limb, way to go

307
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 2: out on the limb because you did.

308
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I went playing the hot No you mad because

309
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 3: you did not. Congratulations to you and you get a

310
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 3: sack strip that's right. I mean as a defense other

311
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 3: than those, I'm obviously you're gonna point to the rushing

312
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 3: yards and say that the Carolina Panthers got way too

313
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 3: much on the ground. But it was a ben don't

314
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 3: break style of defense. They didn't allow a rushing touchdown either.

315
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 3: But that's the version of your defense that you want

316
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 3: to see. As far as being able to pass rush, yeah, no,

317
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 3: they were getting after that. They were getting after those guys.

318
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 3: You got a big bazookah come on once again. He

319
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 3: came back in three sacks. I believe he had two

320
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 3: and a half to they gave that half the curve.

321
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 3: They did two and a half but okay, but not all.

322
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 4: But he played his butt off out there, Like you said,

323
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 4: two and a half sacks. The defense as a whole, Yeah,

324
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 4: they got a little bit gas. You wouldn't like to

325
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 4: see that, especially against the Carolina Panthers going against you know,

326
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 4: Miles Sanders and True Behover, you know, combining those two

327
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 4: weren't doing anything all season long, so to come in

328
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 4: this game and they had a little bit of success

329
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 4: against the Dallas Kyleboy, you don't like to see that,

330
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 4: because you know those teams that the Dallas Kybos are

331
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 4: gonna have to play going in.

332
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 2: The future, they're going to try to exploit that.

333
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 4: That's one thing I don't understand about teams when they

334
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 4: go against the Cowboys, Like why you give up on

335
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 4: the run so quick?

336
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 2: I just don't understand that.

337
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 4: And they put the ball back in Bryce Young's hands

338
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 4: over there, and that fell right into dan Quinn's lap,

339
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 4: because that's what you love to see when you're dan Quinn.

340
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 2: Third and eights, third and tens.

341
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 4: The first half, what made it close was offensively the

342
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 4: Carolina Panthers. There was a lot of third manageables. They

343
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 4: was turned three, third and two's, fourth and ones, moorph

344
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 4: and twos and was able to kill on those COVID routes.

345
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 4: And you saw that they were able to take advantage

346
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 4: by getting the ball out of Bryce's hands quick. When

347
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 4: you go to the second half and you're in those

348
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 4: third eights, now third and tens, third and twelves, it

349
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 4: feeds right into this defensive lap because those guys feed

350
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 4: off of those one on one opportunities that Parsons is

351
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 4: creating for those guys. In the first half he went

352
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 4: off and then they started double teaming them. Then here

353
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 4: comes the law, here comes during something trying to filer

354
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 4: the crew. So they got to eat off of that

355
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 4: and made life a living, you know what for Bryce

356
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 4: Young back there in the pocket. So defense did a

357
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 4: great job. We talked about darn Bland. I mean, the

358
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 4: guy's arguably a top three corner and now I'm talking.

359
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 2: About this year. I ain't talking about body of work,

360
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 2: but this year he's a sact. We're going to talk

361
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 2: about it.

362
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 3: Talking about the second I want to break him down

363
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 3: for sure, but just all overall, anybody else in that secondary.

364
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: Besides dr blaying that that that stuck out to you, I.

365
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 4: Think everybody else's did a solid job, you know, safeties.

366
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 4: I feel like they did a good job covering, coming

367
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 4: down and run support. In the second half, they were

368
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 4: able to kind of get things going out there. Gilmore

369
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 4: didn't really see his name at alls. That's a good

370
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 4: thing for a corner knowing that you ain't really getting

371
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 4: targeted like that.

372
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 2: So how to thing? Overall?

373
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 4: They played well, but it was hard to grade the secondary.

374
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 4: When Bryce Young's back there one two, What am I

375
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 4: going to do? Oh man, I'm going down like there

376
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 4: was no opportunity for him to do that. But that's

377
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 4: why Russian cover worked together so well. And that's what

378
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 4: the Cowboys do defensively. Amazing.

379
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 3: But you think about the defense, listen, I mean the

380
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 3: four point eight to carry five point seven O carry

381
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 3: about you you're you know, it's disappointed. And this is

382
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,360
Speaker 3: all because I'm looking forward into the season. If I'm

383
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 3: looking at just this game, I don't care. Our defense

384
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 3: went out there. We played when you play with the lead,

385
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 3: they did exactly what they were supposed to do. They

386
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 3: let the dogs out okay, and Micah came out there

387
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 3: shout out to that C four school that he was

388
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 3: taking out there because it worked. His get off was crazy.

389
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 3: But the guy the announcer was says, and man, looks

390
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 3: like he's drinking jet few.

391
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: He was.

392
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 3: I'm telling I was taking that uh that pre workout

393
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 3: stuff before. And you kissed the wrong one, they'd be

394
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 3: having your hands out.

395
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 2: Juice. I'm talking about amped up.

396
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 3: And you could tell he was amped up, man, I'm

397
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 3: talking about His get off was crazy, and he went

398
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 3: out there and he made sure that they put his

399
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 3: name back into the defensive player to your conversation, but

400
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 3: we will talk about who may who may need to

401
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 3: be in that conversation we talked, but we talked about

402
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 3: it last week and the conversation. The whole topic was

403
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 3: how do we get the bazooka back and the defensive

404
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 3: player of the year conversation, and we all said that

405
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 3: he need a game like this, a multiple sack game

406
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 3: where he comes in and completely dominates the line of

407
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 3: scrimmage and also the other guys are able to get off.

408
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 3: As you were talking about, we saw Tank get a sack,

409
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 3: We saw Sam Williams come through and get a sack.

410
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 3: Guys are really taking advantage of their opportunity playing with Michael,

411
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 3: and that's what you guys have been talking about all along, Like, look,

412
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 3: if you have double triple team on number eleven, this

413
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 3: some of y'all got somebody got to win, and you're

414
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 3: starting to see that with this Dallas Coboys defensive.

415
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: I'm sorry I was up before not to cut you off.

416
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 3: I want to just give a shout out to Sam

417
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 3: Williams because because he got a penalty. But when you

418
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 3: talk about a guy that is bought in and going

419
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: to make sure that he does whatever they ask him

420
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 3: to do, the dude out there.

421
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 2: Playing gunner, he trying to block punts. He playing defense.

422
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 3: It's hard to get guys who who have that type

423
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 3: of talent and know that they probably fit on the

424
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 3: defensive line somewhere because they are able to start a

425
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 3: defensive line or in the rotation, because they know what

426
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 3: type of talent they have and what type of impact

427
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 3: they can have on the game. To get a guy

428
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 3: like that right who doesn't believe himself to be a

429
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 3: core special teamer to go out there and play gunner,

430
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 3: I ain't never gunner is usually safeties cornerbacks, receivers. This dude,

431
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 3: I see him running up the sideline with a double team.

432
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 3: He coming back in.

433
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:30,880
Speaker 2: He's too sick. Bro.

434
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 3: It's like so so I just want to give him

435
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 3: a shout out, you know, because like that's the type

436
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 3: of guys that you need on your team, especially when

437
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 3: it's nutcutting time and you need you need your big

438
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 3: time players to get out there and put pressure on guys.

439
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: So what what we gonna do about bail in the box? Man?

440
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 2: That what the guys don't get you on?

441
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 4: The guy's a hell of a player when you got

442
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 4: him in there, as far as a dying package, and

443
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 4: it's you know, third in passing yard is and you

444
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 4: gotta go out there in these guarden these echlers of

445
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 4: the world and tight ends and he's spying on her.

446
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 4: Heck of a But when you talk about lining up

447
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 4: first second down in that.

448
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 2: Box, y'all saw. I ain't the only one that saw

449
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 2: this man.

450
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 4: They was check fourteen. They running straight at fourteen every

451
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 4: single time. And it's not his fall man of guys,

452
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 4: what to ten two fifteen? Going against three hundred pounders

453
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 4: in there, you're gonna get moved, especially since you can't

454
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,719
Speaker 4: cut offensive linemen anymore. I like the wrinkle he did

455
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 4: last week with Evans, but we didn't see any of them.

456
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 4: We didn't see any of Evans. He had belling there

457
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 4: for the majority of the time, man, and I just

458
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 4: it kind of.

459
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 2: Worries me because it's like we fall into this travel.

460
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 2: He can get it done.

461
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 4: He can get it done because teams are falling behind

462
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 4: and they got to pass the ball, and that's what

463
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 4: he specializes in the box. I love that for him,

464
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,959
Speaker 4: But when you go against like we always talk about

465
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 4: the teams that are physical and understand that the ground

466
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 4: game is a part of their game, Philly, San Francisco.

467
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 2: But you can't have him in the box. It's just

468
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 2: it ain't gonna work.

469
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 3: So you're saying that these stat numbers just say Mark,

470
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 3: he's bell leading tackler in the game.

471
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 2: Ten tackles, six tackles. Most of those were Hey, I've grabbed,

472
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 2: I grabbed. It's all the tape. Man. He did it.

473
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 2: He did his thing.

474
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 3: And I think also when you talk about the running

475
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 3: game of Carolina, how they were able to pick up

476
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 3: those big yards on first down, that changed the game

477
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 3: for him as well. On the on the on the

478
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 3: game on the down and distance that dan Quinn likes

479
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 3: to bring him in. He was coming in on some

480
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 3: short yarded situations also. But you're right, man, undersized and

481
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: teams are starting to run right now. Well that what

482
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 3: I mean, what you're gonna see is more of those

483
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 3: stunts in those games in front of him. When he

484
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 3: starts coming coming down in the in the box, you're

485
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 3: gonna see defensive end going into the big gap, defensive

486
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 3: tackle going into the A gap. So he can play

487
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 3: more on the outside. I think dan Quinn's gonna have

488
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 3: some adjustments for it. But he's fighting in there though

489
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 3: he ever rough go ahead, and sometimes he'd be enough fighting,

490
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 3: you know. That's all I can say. Man, they asked it,

491
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,199
Speaker 3: They asked him to go down there and you know,

492
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 3: and make a play. And the thing is, it's real

493
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 3: positive when you get teams that they aren't.

494
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 2: Going to run the ball like that, you're gonna eat right.

495
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 3: So so a lot of times you are gonna well,

496
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 3: hopefully you be playing from here from ahead with the league,

497
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 3: or you'll be playing the teams with the spread offense, right,

498
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 3: and then that's when it's gonna.

499
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 2: Be real helpful for him. But overall, I think.

500
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 3: He's I think he's been playing playing pretty well, Ben Fellas.

501
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 3: Let's take our first break. Let's take our first break,

504
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 3: with him. We got to figure out where the awards

505
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 3: need to live. I think we already got him in

587
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,800

00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 3: Diggs and he done something that injury, then d run

589
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,320

00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 3: how great he can be, Like, you know, he could

591
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 3: be good on the outside at this point, he's great

592
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 3: on the outside playing playing the outside cornerback position and

593
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 3: you just don't know that.

594
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 2: And let's unless this happened.

595
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 3: So like you know, silver lining, uh a blessing in

596
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 3: the sky like whatever you want to call it, like

597
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,640
Speaker 3: something like a lot of times players get those opportunities

598
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 3: because of injuries.

599
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 2: Me and you exactly, So shout out to Darron Blam.

600
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:02,479
Speaker 2: But you are right.

601
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 3: I did watch the film on him, you know, because

602
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 3: you know, he had had a few rough plays and

603
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 3: just what I saw from him, you know, watching the tape,

604
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 3: I was like this, Yeah, he press technique, good feet,

605
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 3: good when he plays off he's playing to bait you

606
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 3: into making those those big time, to make you make

607
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 3: a mistake. So sometimes he's going to give up the

608
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 3: catch on that when he's playing off off coverage. But

609
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 3: a lot of times, a lot of times he's gonna

610
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 3: get interceptions. And now we know that he's usually when

611
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 3: he gets it, he's taking it for a pick six.

612
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 2: So shout out to dron Blant, Nah, he's doing He's

613
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 2: doing this thing.

614
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 8: Man.

615
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 4: I don't think people realize how hard it is to

616
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 4: go from inside corner to outside corner. I mean, that's

617
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 4: that's a heck of a transition, even for a veteran

618
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 4: out there. And this guy's only in his second year

619
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 4: and he's able to make that transition seamless.

620
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 2: And he's out there balling.

621
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 4: And when you talk about like this, dude, another thing

622
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 4: that people don't like the receiver he's outside.

623
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 2: Leverage on this interception.

624
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,959
Speaker 4: I'm talking about the receivers going all the way on

625
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 4: the other side of the field. I mean, it's almost

626
00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,400
Speaker 4: impossible to guard that when you're outside leverage. Only does

627
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 4: he have it in his hip pocket, but he cuts

628
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 4: the guy off at the impass when the balls he

629
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 4: cuts him off intercepts, it loses.

630
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 2: His feet, got the intelligence to get up touchdown. Man,

631
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 2: thank you for putting that.

632
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 3: It's articulars is watching it may not even understand what

633
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 3: kind of ball skills it take for a dude to

634
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 3: make a play like that.

635
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 4: And that's just like and most guys when you talk

636
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,719
Speaker 4: in that situation, you outside leverage, you're trailing the receiver.

637
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:23,639
Speaker 4: You wanna get that one hand on the head and

638
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 4: the other hand gonna reach across.

639
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 2: And just back the ball off.

640
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 4: That's considered a great play if you're able to do that,

641
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 4: get a batdown on that. For him to be able

642
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 4: to cut in front of that reach in two head

643
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 4: intercept that that was clinic.

644
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 2: That was clinic take. I mean you can get no

645
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 2: better than that.

646
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 4: I mean the technique he used to go across the field,

647
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 4: we call it jet streaming. When you're right behind the

648
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 4: receiver and you just trailing everything he does and have

649
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 4: the slightest impass, you take that opportunity and jump in

650
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 4: front of it and pick it.

651
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 2: I mean, that's just awesome gameplay right there.

652
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 3: I like to point this Oude while we're talking about

653
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 3: durun Blaant as well. You look when you watch that,

654
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 3: you see a player that is able to learn from

655
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 3: his mistakes because he made that same ain't move I

656
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 3: believe it wouldgaint San Francisco and he was just a

657
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 3: little short.

658
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 2: They end up and how you end up catching it.

659
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 3: And in this time, I'm talking about perfect position.

660
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 2: Right. You don't make that play.

661
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 3: You don't go for that that that that risk, that

662
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 3: gamble unless you are and also you are also in

663
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 3: position to make the tackle right because if not, then

664
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 3: you see what happened with San Francisco and he learned.

665
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 3: And that's what good players do. Hey, man, i ain't

666
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 3: gonna make that mistake again. I'm making this play this time.

667
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 3: And when after turn it too a pig six. Let

668
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 3: me ask you this, man, I mean, because you guys

669
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 3: have seen it really be college. I don't know the

670
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 3: Honey Badger l s U just guys that are just

671
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 3: bat hawks. It just seemed like they're all Charles Woodson.

672
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 3: You are a dude. Put the ball in the air

673
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:44,959
Speaker 3: if you want to. I'm gonna take it, and I'm

674
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 3: gonna take it to the house. I'm not just gonna

675
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,480
Speaker 3: intercept it. I'm going to intercept this and take it

676
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 3: to the house. He has four pick sixes on the season,

677
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,959
Speaker 3: and I mean one time's lucky, two times a three times?

678
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 3: Whoa you that guy? Four times? That's just who you are.

679
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 3: That's just who you are. And right now he's impacting

680
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 3: the game we talked about against the Philadelphia Eagles when

681
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 3: Slim Reaper burning on a fade ball.

682
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 2: It took a hell of like yeah, burn No, I

683
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 2: had to agree with you.

684
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 3: I had to agree with you that it was a

685
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 3: hell of a throw one that got him the touchdown.

686
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 3: But you're not seeing him in positions where the receivers

687
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 3: are taking advantage of this guy. Every time twenty six

688
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 3: is showing up, he's showing up making a solid play.

689
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,239
Speaker 3: When he doesn't make the solid play, just like you

690
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 3: just said, what does he do? He comes back in

691
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 3: yours owns for it and he makes a play on

692
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 3: the ball. Like have y'all seen a guy like this

693
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 3: having a kind of season like this?

694
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 4: That's why I gotta say this, man, I gotta we

695
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 4: gotta give a huge shout out to our Harris Junior

696
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 4: and I believe Joe Woo Junr over there in the

697
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 4: secondary because when you look at it, when they got

698
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 4: their hands on on these dbs.

699
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 2: I mean, the game is just night and day.

700
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 4: You look at Diggs from his rookie year to his

701
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 4: second year, eleven picks out there, just a bona fide

702
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 4: stud at the corner spot.

703
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 2: You look at the Wron Bland, who correct me if

704
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 2: I'm wrong, Chris.

705
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 4: I mean, you know you could do the research and

706
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 4: all that stuff, but I don't think he was a

707
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 4: big interceptor.

708
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 2: Like he was not getting a lot of picks in college.

709
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 2: I don't believe. So you come in here and he's

710
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 2: eleven picks in your first two years. It's outstanding.

711
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 4: So how granted, you know, those guys are talented guys,

712
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 4: Digs and Bland unbelievable talent. But you got to give

713
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 4: some credit to the coaches as well, because those guys,

714
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 4: I mean, it got the whole secondary playing well out there.

715
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 2: So got to give a HU shout out to them guys.

716
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 3: But putting in context what you're saying about Diggs in

717
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 3: twenty twenty one, it had been forty years since Everson

718
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 3: Walls did it in nineteen eighty one.

719
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 4: That's crazy, That's what I'm saying.

720
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 3: So even last year, I don't think we understood Dron

721
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 3: Bland led the team in interceptions last year with five.

722
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 2: From the nickel from the nickel and what was the.

723
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 3: Worry around here going to the off season. We were

724
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 3: still talking about quarterbacks. Do you still break if you

725
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 3: come on the front of office, can't lie to me

726
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 3: and tell me that they knew that this what it

727
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 3: was because you went out and you signed Gilly. Yeah,

728
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 3: but at the same god, you did at the same time.

729
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 3: You know, for however good he was last year at

730
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 3: the nickel position, you still you still look at being

731
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: able to go get a guy like Yilly and say,

732
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 3: if I have all three of these guys, oh my god,

733
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 3: then I feel very comfortable about where I am defensive,

734
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 3: Like you feel comfortable now, But just imagine how much

735
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 3: more comfortable you'll be feeling with a guy who could

736
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 3: take the ball away like that at the nickel position,

737
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 3: a guy who could take the ball away like that

738
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 3: at the corner position, and oh yeah, a former defensive player,

739
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 3: like just imagine having that.

740
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 2: So, yeah, you don't know.

741
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 3: Droun Blain is gonna be that good, but you do

742
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 3: know that he is going to be good, and at

743
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 3: some point he'll be playing outside corner. It just came

744
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 3: a little earlier than expected. That's all because he ain't

745
00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 3: going back. He ain't going back, going back, going back.

746
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 2: Now he's stuck.

747
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 8: So two I n t at Fresno State his senior year,

748
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 8: Like get to the pros?

749
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 2: Are you doing it like to? I mean.

750
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 3: It's got it has to be coaching, man, But another

751
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 3: guy that that not to bring down here a little bit.

752
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 3: But Zach Martin, Okay, our offensive line has had their struggles.

753
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 3: They haven't given up any sacks though. All right, that's true,

754
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 3: but we are but.

755
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 2: We have didn't get one yesterday. You didn't know. Yeah,

756
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 2: that's been using his legs, which is no.

757
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 3: No, it's great that he's doing that because it does

758
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 3: help his offensive line now and it happens around the league.

759
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 3: But yes, yes, they didn't give up any sacks. So,

760
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 3: but we've been seeing a little leakage. Yeah, I will

761
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 3: say so has been saying a lot of leaks.

762
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 2: I in the sky, don't lie. What has it been saying?

763
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 4: And it's tough to really put your finger on it

764
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 4: when when you think about it, because and this is

765
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 4: why I said, you know, I believe Smith, the younger

766
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 4: Smith is probably the best offensive lineman when we talked

767
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 4: about it let last week. When you look at what

768
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 4: they're doing out there, Tyren Smith, him not practicing during

769
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 4: the weeks. If they still got that game plan going,

770
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 4: hey keep it going, because he looked he looked outstanding

771
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 4: out there.

772
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 2: He ain't giving up nothing out.

773
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 4: There, you know, the younger Smith, Tyler Smith, penalties aren't

774
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 4: a huge thing for him.

775
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 3: Now.

776
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 4: You see when they're running the football, well, they're going

777
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 4: to that left side behind him. He's a bulldozer and

778
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 4: that's what we understand he does. And I think he's

779
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 4: an unbelievable guard. He could do both, just like d

780
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,760
Speaker 4: ron blank guard and tackle his center position be odish.

781
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 4: I mean, I still feel like you know, I feel

782
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 4: he's improving. But when you look at it, Zach Martin,

783
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 4: when we see it, he's still, in my opinion, he's

784
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 4: still an outstanding offensive line.

785
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong.

786
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 4: At any stretcher, he doesn't you know, far off a

787
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 4: cliff or anything like that. He's still unbelievable offensive line.

788
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 4: But what we've seen them of late is especially in

789
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 4: the run game, where he's supposed to be the guy

790
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:46,799
Speaker 4: that kind of fire off of it, you know, get

791
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 4: that aggression out of you cats are either making a

792
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 4: miss or like we saw yesterday Derek Brown, I believe it,

793
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 4: Dwayne I want to I forget his name. He's a

794
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 4: former top ten overall pick, or just kind of throwing

795
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 4: this guy's side like those are things that we haven't

796
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 4: seen from Zach Martin ever. Ever, so if going forward,

797
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 4: I still believe he's, like I said, the top off

798
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 4: the lineman in the game. It's just like, man, I

799
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,720
Speaker 4: don't you know our castles trying to start taking advantage

800
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 4: of that.

801
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 2: We'll see you know what's happening to you. You know

802
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 2: what's happening to you.

803
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 3: Okay, so you know how great Floyd Mayweather is not great?

804
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 3: He is, right, and then you see him get get

805
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 3: hit with a punch, right, and then oh wait what

806
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,359
Speaker 3: you used to be? Right s that's the thought, right,

807
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 3: that's the thought. That's the thought.

808
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 2: You're like, man, because you you just ain't want put

809
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 2: You ain't.

810
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:29,800
Speaker 3: One guy.

811
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:32,879
Speaker 2: One time, No, no, no, no.

812
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 3: My point is you just you're not Some people are

813
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 3: so great you're not used to seeing those types of

814
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 3: rest from them, even if it's happening more than once.

815
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 3: It's like I ain't never seen the happit to that guy. Wait,

816
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 3: he's human, right, he's human. Same thing like Tyrant went

817
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 3: through those issues of like we were like, wait, that

818
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 3: don't look like that, don't look like the same, you know,

819
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 3: twenty eleven, twenty twelve, Tyrant. But those type of players,

820
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 3: when they get when it, when they go watch that

821
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 3: on film, then they feel a little about it and

822
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 3: then hopefully, hopefully you start to.

823
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 2: See that you know, that is the work.

824
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,879
Speaker 3: That is the worst thing about sports man when you

825
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 3: watch a guy that was just like Michael Jordan for

826
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 3: the Wizards man bring them. He was like, I'm just

827
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 3: telling you when you when he's on the fast break

828
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 3: up by himself and it was like, come on, he

829
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 3: about the wagon tongue.

830
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 2: No, he just laid the part up. What just now

831
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 2: you hitting me?

832
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 3: And I get what you're saying. And I for one

833
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,879
Speaker 3: don't think that he has the cliff he had. Yeah,

834
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 3: the decline hadn't been.

835
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 2: I mean and thankful to have you.

836
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 3: Hey, he needs seventy, but just the effort, just him

837
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 3: and the way that he's been dominating over the years.

838
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 2: Man, maybe maybe hey, we're just seeing a this the

839
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 2: percent the percentage of great reps is going down a little.

840
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 3: That's all the percentage of great reps throughout the game

841
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 3: of like usually ninety eight percent dominant somebody right now

842
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,400
Speaker 3: you might be sitting at ninety four. But I did

843
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 3: the one, the one that you saw yesterday, like I

844
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 3: saw it.

845
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 2: I saw it, I saw yourself. So I do know

846
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 2: what you mean, but I don't you know.

847
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 3: I mean, Tyres Smith still out the balling, So you know,

848
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 3: I think Zach Martin gonna be okay, you know, he

849
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 3: gonna have a few of those reps. But I think

850
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 3: when he could, when when it come down when you

851
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 3: need them, he gonna be already.

852
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 2: Let's take them.

853
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,279

934
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 3: a good football team, but you sound like you're about

935
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 3: to start picking, you know, for the first round by

936
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 3: when we're gonna host the you know, like you know, hey,

937
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 3: I have This has been a ramp up since the

938
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,400
Speaker 3: beginning of the season. I've been just slowly getting this

939
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 3: whole thing together. I'm just saying seventy three was where

940
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,359
Speaker 3: we need to be. I'm not gonna count them before

941
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 3: they hatch, but I'm just saying, bro, this next couple

942
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,439
Speaker 3: of games, we gotta we got a winnable game versus

943
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 3: Manders Okay, Seattle, that's a winnable game.

944
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 2: And you go into a boy, you come in the Sunday.

945
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 4: Feel anna so Sidlo, So what are your thoughts? What

946
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 4: are you talking about the Dolphins? Like, what would you say,

947
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 4: hey look good? Would would you say they should be

948
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 4: the top dolls?

949
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 3: I think in I think in the AFC right now,

950
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 3: you cannot discount what the Kansas City Chiefs are doing.

951
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 2: They still top dolls.

952
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 3: To me, did you put the Dolphins in that, I

953
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:20,319
Speaker 3: would say, yeah, one two, I took the Dolphins better

954
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 3: than would you put them the butter.

955
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 2: Ravens and all that.

956
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 3: I'm putting them in the same class. I'm putting them

957
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 3: in the same class. I'm like one, two, three, And

958
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 3: I said, now you trip and say.

959
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,399
Speaker 4: This the Dolphins, I believe they haven't beaten the team

960
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 4: with a winning record. And it's the same thing with

961
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 4: the Dallas Cowboys. They have yet to beat the team

962
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 4: with a winning record. So how can we sit there

963
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 4: and say they're the top dogs over a sand fran

964
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 4: a Philly of Detroit?

965
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,239
Speaker 2: Okay, so what is Detroit? What is Detroit? Detroit? What

966
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:49,879
Speaker 2: seventy three?

967
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 3: They good and they have wins over teams that have

968
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 3: winning records. But you gotta look, you made me too

969
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 3: complicated for us. We can't win our games. They make

970
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 3: our opponents good too. I mean, we just winning the games,

971
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 3: and we who we have, I mean we've had, we've lost.

972
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 3: And now I think when you double down on the

973
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:12,320
Speaker 3: health part of it, wouldn't you say that we're relatively

974
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 3: healthy right now? Yes, going into a very important part

975
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 3: of the season, and I think all of the things

976
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,760
Speaker 3: that you wanted in this team, especially in your defense.

977
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,320
Speaker 3: You're you're starting to you can get behind that because

978
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,399
Speaker 3: defense what travels? All right, you got a home field

979
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 3: advantage that you're starting to work out your twelve wins

980
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 3: straight at home.

981
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 2: You hadn't seen that since you were winning Super Bowls.

982
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 2: Come hold on, bo I'm not done. He gone.

983
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 3: And your offense with Ceedee Lamb, who is now after

984
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 3: what ten games, now has a thousand yards receiving I

985
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 3: think you're seeing everything that you wanted to see in

986
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 3: your team at this point in the season. And if

987
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 3: there is a better team in the NFC than the

988
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys right now, it's just one.

989
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 2: Defensetop feeling, it's just one defense. Stop Philly. You saw that.

990
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 3: You you said you saw the forty nine ers go

991
00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 3: through that struggles you've seen maybe it's part of that

992
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 3: on you.

993
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 2: Put the don't y'all start with me? You will put

994
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 2: you put the Cowboys above San Francisco.

995
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 3: It's only one team better than us right now. And

996
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 3: that's you see, that's peeling and that's okay. And that's

997
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 3: based off of don't we don't we judge it based

998
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 3: off of the games that they don't play, they don't

999
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 3: lost some games.

1000
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 2: So come on, why are y'all not giving.

1001
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 3: You're just counting they stop to you look, one team out,

1002
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 3: one team better, not even I'm talking about at least

1003
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 3: the playoff game, trying to make us three and I'm

1004
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 3: not gonna give us three. I'm giving us two. I'm

1005
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 3: giving us two. I'm giving us two. And that's and

1006
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:37,839
Speaker 3: we'll see him and that's your that's okay, and we'll

1007
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 3: see him again. But no, I'm not I'm not agreeing

1008
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 3: with you on that until you beat them, Until you

1009
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,959
Speaker 3: beat them the Wait a minute, So all y'all saying

1010
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 3: is that Philadelphia and the forty nine ers are better

1011
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 3: than us?

1012
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, And who's treating there? Are you saying

1013
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:55,839
Speaker 2: the Detroit better?

1014
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 3: I'm saying. I'm saying right now, I have more faith

1015
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,719
Speaker 3: in what Detroit has done and can't do in the

1016
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:01,840
Speaker 3: season that what we have.

1017
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,400
Speaker 2: I've seen their offense, I've seen them be able to win.

1018
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 2: Who beat Kansas City? Who beat them? Like you just

1019
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,920
Speaker 2: called them the top thousand? They beat them? Money was

1020
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:12,719
Speaker 2: getting their rings? Wasn't that the first game of the

1021
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 2: man It was Patrick Mahone's playing or not. What's he

1022
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:20,359
Speaker 2: playing too?

1023
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 3: Right now? That's okay, that's you ain't bumping us down there.

1024
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,440
Speaker 3: You're definitely not bumping us down the full over. Oh

1025
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 3: come on, this is this eating Carolina New York is

1026
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 3: not just they're doing what they're supposed to be all

1027
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,879
Speaker 3: the credit. But what you talk about tears and where, guys,

1028
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 3: is that you got to put the head of heads.

1029
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 3: So let me make sew before we sign off here.

1030
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 3: You're telling me that the Downs Cowboys right now, in

1031
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:47,680
Speaker 3: your opinion, are the fourth best team in the NFC.

1032
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 2: Yes, I think that's fair. I think that's fair. Yes,

1033
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:52,799
Speaker 2: that's fair.

1034
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 3: Yes, based off based off watching the other teams and

1035
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 3: seeing what they've done, and then also had the head

1036
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 3: matchups because we lost to the first top two.

1037
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 2: I can't believe.

1038
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,360
Speaker 3: Can first about a couple of what a couple of

1039
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,279
Speaker 3: weeks ago, we came in here and saying, and you

1040
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 3: agreed that Detroit was better than us.

1041
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:12,319
Speaker 2: You have to be run to take her. I bring

1042
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 2: it for you tomorrow. I'll bring them all. Man.

1043
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 3: You said the Giant must have and the and the Panthers,

1044
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 3: and now all of a sudden things have changed. He

1045
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 3: asked me that question after the Eagles loss. You know,

1046
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 3: I was a little emotional. I told y'all, man, it

1047
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 3: was a little touchy.

1048
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,359
Speaker 2: Don't do it. Give me twenty four hours. That's when

1049
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 2: you got when we asked that question. Seriously, did they

1050
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 2: better than sad Fran right now? Right now? Yeah?

1051
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 3: Right now, a healthy sand Frand because you're talking about health,

1052
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 3: because not ay' healthy now that I mean they just

1053
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,560
Speaker 3: then they free safety, just blow his a cs and offensively,

1054
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:51,759
Speaker 3: I mean healthy later, No obvious, you're trying to bust

1055
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:53,360
Speaker 3: this down to four man, I'm not gonna let you

1056
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 3: do that.

1057
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 2: That's my feeling is.

1058
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,279
Speaker 3: Not gonna be hurt to each Is you the one,

1059
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,280
Speaker 3: not my feelings because I'm thinking, I'm talking, I'm talking realistic,

1060
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 3: I'm being I'm being logical here.

1061
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 2: Your feeling is the one you won't be.

1062
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,360
Speaker 3: Hurt, like just like when you picked the gents to

1063
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,239
Speaker 3: beat the bills this weekend. And why you gotta bring

1064

1065
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 3: was trying to separate from the package. But then anyway, anyway,

1066
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 3: it's been a good show. I was hoping that we

1067
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 3: would be able to, you know, end on a good note.

1068
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 3: But I sabotized myself with that. I sabatize yourself with that.

1069
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:35,480
