I'm embarrassed because 26 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 1: we just we talked about so much stuff last week 27 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: that feels really stupid in retrospect, and I'm just trying 28 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: to collect my feelings. Nick, I see you over there smirking. 29 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: What are you sporking about the fact that Dave is 30 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: well feeling like this in a hoodie now? It's just 31 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: like I can't understand. And how is what's Dave's voice doing? 32 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: Is he like really like like shamed here? Ashamed of 33 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: the game. We've got my tail between my legs and 34 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: talk like this for the rest of the show. Don't 35 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: do that. Leave. I'm just I'm staying in Kansas City 36 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: until I get a good game. I thought we get 37 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: a good game. We didn't, So I'm just gonna stay 38 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: until until we get one. So you're just gonna cover 39 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 1: this next game from Kansas City. I'll Thanksgiving Day. That 40 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: sounds like a winner. No, he's trying to say, Arkansas 41 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: basketball is gonna play a good game tonight and then 42 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: he can go home. Hopefully. Let's see maybe, maybe we'll see. 43 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's let's jump into this thing. Man, there's 44 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 1: so many different things. And I saw you this morning 45 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: walk in and we both just shook our heads like 46 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: this was this was not great. Um. Here's the interesting 47 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: thing though, And I heard this, this quote from Mike 48 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: McCarthy following the game, and the first thing I thought 49 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 1: about is, Okay, we started having this conversation last week. 50 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: I want to know what you guys think. Here was 51 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: this quote. He says, we don't feel any less about 52 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: ourselves as a football team team by any means. We 53 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: were defeated, but we don't look at our team any 54 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: differently than the way we walked in here tonight. You 55 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: guys see it the same way or do you see 56 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: this team differently? You go right ahead, Amber, let me 57 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: let me hear what you have to say. I haven't 58 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: seen you so far today. Well, like you said, we 59 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: talked about it last week. You were talking about measuring 60 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: stick and what this team this game could do for 61 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys and judging. And you know, initially I was like, Okay, 62 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: depending how they play this game, I'll have an opinion 63 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: regardless of whether they lose or not. You know, even 64 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: if they lost a game, I would be like, Okay, well, 65 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: they only got to fix this or that, maybe red 66 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,119 Speaker 1: zone and get better there, and that's it. Maybe the tug. 67 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: No I walked out of that game, or I was 68 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: on my couch. I got up my couch thinking like, 69 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: are you freaking kidding me? Okay, no, I am not. 70 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: I'm never gonna say a bad word, but are you 71 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: freaking kidding me? I am tired of excuses. And I've 72 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: been pretty pretty good this season, you know, because they've 73 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: been playing well and everything. But once again we faced 74 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: an opponent that is an opponent that has been in 75 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: a championship, Tampa Bay. They were very very close, lost 76 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: that game, played very well. But then you go up 77 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: against a team like Kansas City and then they play 78 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: that way regardless of what your defense was doing. Like 79 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: when have you seen the defense Cowboys defense playing that 80 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: way against a team like Kansas City. So the fact 81 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: that that was the end result, and I'm tired and 82 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: I get it. They didn't have Tyren Smith, lost City 83 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: Lamb in the middle of the game, they didn't have 84 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: Americ Hooper. I get it, But at what point are 85 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: you done with excuses? What you know? You know you've 86 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: done excuses which no one back to what you led 87 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: with the McCarthy quote, and that stood out to me too. Yeah, 88 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: I would be alarmed if he said anything else, because 89 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: they I mean, they went up to Arrowhead. They looked 90 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: like crap offensively, but the defense maybe played its best 91 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: game of the year all things considered, like they considering 92 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: the opponent, in the environment and what they got from 93 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: definitely the best half if you look at the second 94 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: half for sure. I mean, yeah, to hold them to 95 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: three points after what it looked like the Chiefs we're 96 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: gonna have a track meet in the first quarter, and 97 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: so they play that well, you know Randy's coming to 98 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: Marcus Lawrence is coming. You didn't have Tyrn and a 99 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: Marie Cooper and so even though you look bad, you 100 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: lose by ten to a super Bowl team in their house, 101 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: Like if you were if you were just like, oh, 102 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: we're frauds, we're scared, We're alarmed, Like that would alarm me, 103 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: but to go along with what AG said, Like, even 104 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: with all that stuff in the back of my mind, 105 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: all I've been thinking about all day today is okay, cool, 106 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,239 Speaker 1: you didn't have Tyron Smith, he didn't have a Mariy Cooper, 107 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: you lost CD Lamb. That helps explain this, But they 108 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: did such a bad job of controlling what you can control. 109 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: Like what is not having Tyrn or Amari you have 110 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: to do with Dak airmailing Michael Gallop on the first 111 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: play the game? What does it have to do with 112 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: four combined drops from the backup receivers who had been 113 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: having a great season. Cedric Wilson sparked them in Minnesota 114 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: with a catch over the middle. Just doesn't show up yesterday. 115 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,239 Speaker 1: Dak again, terrible ball to CD in the end zone 116 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: for the interception when you have a chance to kind 117 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: of flip the script right before halftime. I'm probably blanking 118 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: on some other things, but like the guys who were available, 119 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: maybe you don't win if they play better, but you'd 120 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: put a better showing out than that. Like maybe you 121 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: lose that game nineteen to seventeen, and we're feeling like 122 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: we did after the Bucks game, where you're like that's football. 123 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: It's tough to win an arrowhead it's the Chiefs. But 124 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: instead you're just like nobody showed up and it starts, 125 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: I mean it starts with Dak for me, and nobody 126 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: showed up and shoot the offensive line when Zack Martin's 127 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: getting bullied by Chris Jones, I don't know what you're 128 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: supposed to do. Hey, Nick, you see this team differently 129 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: today than you did on set Sunday before the game? Yes, yeah, 130 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: I do. I see it differently just because until they 131 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: show us that they can be an elite team. But 132 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: they they had a chance. We talked about this as 133 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: a showdown game, and they didn't do it. You know, 134 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: they didn't show up. They didn't show up for this game. 135 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: And I think Dave's right. We talked about it with Dak. 136 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: I mean we talked last week. Should he be an 137 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: MVP candidate and all that, And I hope that that's 138 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: put to bed at least for a while because because 139 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: he needs help, and there's nothing wrong with that. He 140 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: is a great quarterback. I'm glad he's the quarterback of 141 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. But he needs help. He needs his left tackle, 142 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: he needs his receivers, He needs a healthy running back. 143 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: They all do, and so he was. He couldn't just 144 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: take Noah Brown and said, your Wilson in that line, 145 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: and Tony Pollard couldn't take him to the finish line. 146 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: That's okay, He'll have more help than this. But yeah, 147 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: I don't think this was a game that the Cowboys 148 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: said we're ready to take that step. It was there 149 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: in front of them and they didn't take it. Yeah, 150 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: I agree with you, guys, because I think the thing 151 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: about it is I don't think less of them today. 152 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: There was just an opportunity for me to think more 153 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: of them. And what I mean by that is we 154 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: really hadn't seen them yet. We hadn't seen them yet 155 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: in opportunities other than the first week to play a 156 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: team that was in the upper echelon of teams in 157 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: the NFL. Last night was our Yesterday was an opportunity 158 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: for them to maybe get a win against one of 159 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: those teams, and they didn't. And so what we know 160 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: is what we still knew before the game, which is 161 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: they can beat the middle of the road teams most 162 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: of them. They can beat the bad teams some of them. 163 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: They can route. What we don't know about the team 164 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: is whether they compete yet against those upper echelon teams, 165 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: and so far, the record says they can't. The record 166 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: says that in both those opportunities they lost. This goes 167 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: back to what I was saying last week, and that's 168 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: why I was kind of doing that bit about feeling 169 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: ashamed and embarrassed. Is like I just I thought one 170 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: thing that we knew about this team is that they 171 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: weren't gonna blink, you know. And again, like they played 172 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 1: so well in Tampa, you know, like adversity. They're trailing 173 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: for most of the first half. They got some defensive 174 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: lapses that put them in the hole, and they just 175 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: keep coming back and coming back, and the game's never 176 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: over and Dak takes him down. You lose Tom Brady 177 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: at the gun. What are you gonna do? You know? 178 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: But here and again, like I get it, they don't 179 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 1: have guys, but like, there were plays to be made 180 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: that would have made you feel better. Dak averaged five 181 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: yards per attempt, they had four drops, the line couldn't 182 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 1: block anybody. They gave up five sexs, they stopped running. 183 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 1: Well again, what okay, Tyrn Smith not there? What does 184 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: that have to do with Terrence Steele not hearing the 185 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: snap and don't come at me about arrowhead because he 186 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: heard it in US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis where it's 187 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: really really loud too, So they I knew I forgot something. 188 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: The boy pop past to Cedric whatever the hell that was, 189 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: the said, I don't think I've ever seen I don't 190 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: think I've ever seen it incompletion on a pass like that. 191 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: How does that happen? They just absolutely blinked because they did. 192 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: It's not just that they lost to a good team 193 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: on the road. They just didn't even do the basic stuff. 194 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 1: Well nobody at least not on offense. The defense shower 195 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: them with praise. Those guys, I've they left their guts 196 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: out there as far as I'm concerned. But the offense 197 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: just didn't go. They just did not show up to 198 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: Kansas City. I mean, no, I mean, I can keep ranting. No, 199 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 1: that's that's just how I feel. Let's take let's take 200 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: our first break. When we come back from that break, 201 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,559 Speaker 1: I want to talk specifically about Dak and specifically about 202 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: the offensive line and the running game. It seemed like 203 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: none of those three things we're working. We'll talk about 204 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: those three things when we come back. This is Dallas 205 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys dot Com Radio, at AT and T.

We got a 255 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: short week, so tomorrow we'll be flipping the page real 256 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: quick talking about Cowboys versus Raiders. Raiders on a bit 257 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: of a slide there, so maybe this is as if 258 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: you can call it that a get right game for Dallas. 259 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: We'll see how that goes. Maybe the Raiders are saying, yeah, 260 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: Dallas lost two of our division rivals in the last 261 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: three weeks right exactly, So we'll see how that all 262 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 1: plays out this week. I do want to talk to 263 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: typically about this offense stow deck yesterday twenty eight to 264 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: forty three, sixty five percent completion rate, two hundred and 265 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: sixteen yards, zero touchdowns, two interceptions, a fifty seven point 266 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: nine quarterback reading. Not a great day from mister Prescott. 267 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: That all being said, do you think that pressure was 268 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: the biggest problem for the Dallas offense yesterday? Not being 269 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: able to handle pressure. I think everything was a problem obvious. 270 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: I mean, Chris Jones mauled their offensive line basically all 271 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: by himself. Frank Clark had a hand in it as well. 272 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: But I think it's a little bit of everything. And 273 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: just from what I've been able to digest after the game, 274 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: I think Kansas City approached it in a similar fashion 275 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: to what Denver did. I think they probably blitzed a 276 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: little bit more. I think pressure was a problem. I 277 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: think not having guys that can separate downfield was a problem. 278 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: And I also think the Chiefs just played a hell 279 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: of a game on defense. Right. It's not always you 280 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: being bad. Sometimes they're just really good. I mean, how 281 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: many plays I can think of at least four where 282 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: whether it was CD, Zeke or somebody else, catch it 283 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: three yards past the sticks and what looks like it 284 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: could be a nine yard game, you're tackled immediately. I 285 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: mean that I felt like that happened half a dozen 286 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: times yesterday. So yeah, I mean they were just dominant. 287 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, to answer you more directly, I mean, I 288 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: don't think Dak played well regardless. I think he missed 289 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: a lot of throws that he should make, but he 290 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: did not have a lot of time either. Nick was 291 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: pressure the biggest problem for them, I think, so I 292 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: think it starts there and then it just the snowball effect. 293 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: I mean, how do you beat pressure. You beat pressure 294 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: by getting the ball down the field. And and you know, 295 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: once CD left the game, they had nobody really that 296 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: the Chiefs were worried about. And you know, Dak wasn't 297 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: hitting them, you know either way. But you know, like 298 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: I said, Cedric Wilson and Noah Brown, you know, those 299 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: guys are good, but they're not special. And I think 300 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: you needed that. So he took advantage of the offensive line, 301 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: and then the Cowboys couldn't come come back. That I'll 302 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: never forget. Bill Parcel's telling Romo and those quarterbacks, you 303 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: will want them to blitz, blitz. You want them to 304 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: blitz every time because you can beat them. Well. When 305 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: you can't beat them though blitzing getting a blitz, it's 306 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: not very fun. And it wasn't fun for Dak. Huh. 307 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: I thought that, yes, that was their biggest problem. And 308 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: we've seen it different times where Dak has to run 309 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: out of the pocket, but he's still precise, He's still 310 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: he can make those throws. And I don't know what 311 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: the heck was going on yesterday that they just could 312 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: not connect. And aside from Cite Lamb, I mean even 313 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: when he was still in the game, they were not 314 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: playing well at all either. So what were they doing 315 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: with the old line? What we knew Tyren Smith wasn't 316 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: gonna play? I wonder at one point did they really 317 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: know that. How close to the game were you guys 318 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: thinking that they actually knew for sure that Tyron Smith 319 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: was not gonna be a guy to play. I don't 320 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: think they made that call until Saturday. I think it 321 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: was really really close. And that's a good point. I'm 322 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: glad you bring up, which I mean, it's an excuse 323 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: and that's what it is. But you lose a Mari 324 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: very unexpectedly, so I do wonder, I mean, your game 325 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 1: plans in place by Friday afternoon, and I wonder that 326 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: is not a lot of turnaround to sort of just 327 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: change everything up. And then I got the sense in 328 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: the building, Nick, please correct me if you disagree. I 329 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: really I thought that they thought Tyron was gonna play, 330 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: and I think, fine if that if it's Steven said 331 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: he was pretty optimistic that he was gonna play earlier 332 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: in the week, Nick, I agree. I was really surprised 333 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: when we heard on Sunday morning that he wasn't. And 334 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: I think, going back to what Amber said, we're talking 335 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 1: about the old offensive line. I don't know if they 336 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: would have made that switch with Connor McGovern if they 337 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: thought that that Terrence still was going to be next 338 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 1: to him. I think all week they thought that Tyron 339 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: was going to be the guy, and so it changed 340 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: a lot there. I mean, when you think about Amari 341 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: Cooper being out and tired of being out, you would 342 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: ask this Friday morning on the show, we thought both 343 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: of them were playing, So it was that it was 344 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: not only tough to replace them, but replace them in 345 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: a short amount of time. Well, that's that's what I 346 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: don't get though, that point of Okay, how hard is 347 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: it just to go back and be like, okay, we'll 348 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: just keep Connor Williams in there. If that's the guy 349 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, and I'm talking about practiced all week though, right, 350 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: but he's been doing it all seasons. That's what I 351 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: don't get, Like, how hard? How much does that really 352 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: change a game plan when you're playing oh line and 353 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,959 Speaker 1: doing something that you have been doing this season. My 354 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 1: thing is not necessarily maybe the game plan, but as 355 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: you know, each of these guys, they they study specific 356 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: players that they're going to have to play against when 357 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: they're going to play. And my suspicion is they probably 358 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 1: felt like, hey, if we've been playing Connor McGovern here 359 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: all week in practice, he's been preparing to play, and 360 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,199 Speaker 1: we've been preparing with him them to play, then I 361 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: think they probably felt like making a change at the 362 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 1: last minute probably does more to undo that. And Connor 363 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: Williams may not have He may have been preparing to 364 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: do play fullback and do the other things that he 365 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: was going to do in the offense to where do 366 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: we really want a guy who has not been at 367 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: you know, has not been great lately anyway, in Connor Williams, 368 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 1: to now put him in without the practice all week, 369 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: now put him in and ask him, ask him to start. 370 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: I think they probably if that's the decision that came 371 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: out after they found out when they were expecting try 372 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: to play, I think they stick with whatever they've been 373 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: doing all week. That just adds one more layer of 374 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: just something that they didn't practice right now. When you're 375 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: making football money, I think that's something you can easily 376 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: just go back and do it. That would be nice. 377 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: That would be nice. But as we've seen, like just 378 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: because you're making football money doesn't mean you can do 379 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 1: the job right. The beauty of it, and I use 380 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: the word beauty sarcastically, but like it's not like Connor 381 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: mcconferen sank the offensive line. They were all terrible. They 382 00:19:55,520 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: all got I mean, every steal had issues. I all 383 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,959 Speaker 1: had what a false start I think that backed him up, 384 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: also got beat off the edge and ye, Tyler Biadas 385 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: had to I mean that was seemed like a BS 386 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: call to me. But the false start on beyond he 387 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: had some issues in the run game, and again I 388 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 1: think it was the fourth quarter, but like when Zach 389 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,479 Speaker 1: Martin's given up sacks to Chris, I'm just like, all right, 390 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: just throw it away, just throw the game away. I 391 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: mean that was Jones. Chris Jones dominated that game. He 392 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: literally went down the line. And I don't remember. It 393 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: was training camp several years ago. There was a defensive 394 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: I want to say it was when DeMarcus was still here, 395 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: but we had a defensive lineman that went down the 396 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: line and basically every day kind of went through each 397 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: of the different guys and challenged can I read basically 398 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: with Chris Jones, d Can I read you his stat line? 399 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 1: Because I wrote it out in a story last night 400 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh my god, like his stat 401 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 1: lines like twenty words, four tackles, three and a half sacks, 402 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: three quarterback hits, one pass deflection, one forced fumble, and 403 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: one fumble recovery. Unbelievable, amazing, we said, I mean, I 404 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: knew he was an underrated and amazing player, but I 405 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: mean that that's got to be one of the best 406 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 1: one or two games of his life. And I thought 407 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: he would have a really great game. I thought he 408 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: would primarily do it on the interior part and over 409 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: the left guard and in the center, and that was 410 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: not the case. He moved all around and he gave 411 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: them problems everywhere. I mean, there wasn't a place on 412 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: the offensive line that he didn't give them problems. Look, 413 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: I know, well, I'm just gonna say this real quick. 414 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: I'm sure Nick wants to speak, but um, I know 415 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 1: there's a lot of football left to play, and it's crazy, crazy, 416 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: but I am so sad and just embarrassed and like 417 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: crushed because this was the closest you could get to, 418 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: like a playoff type of game, and then they play 419 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: that way, and it's like, what's gonna happen once they 420 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: do get it to the playoffs? And who's gonna say 421 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 1: that all of these guys are gonna be healthy? You know. 422 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: It's just one of those things that I just fast 423 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: forward ourselves into the playoffs and the scenario playing through, 424 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 1: and it's just like, Wow, we have seen amazing games 425 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: this year and then they come out and played this way? 426 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? So I'm just I'm sorry, but 427 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: I have nothing positive to say. Well, oh, I applaud 428 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: the defense, but other than that, I'm like, here we 429 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 1: are again crushed and it sucks, and football just hurts, 430 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: hurts your heart and you guys, I don't know how 431 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: y'all handle more than one football game per weekend. I'm good, Yes, 432 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 1: that sucks. Nick talking about Connor McGovern and Connor Williams, 433 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: do you think, based upon what you saw yesterday, you 434 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,479 Speaker 1: stick with that or you think they need to go 435 00:22:54,560 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: back to Williams at this point, I go one more game. 436 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: And the reason why I say that is, ultimately it's 437 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: better for McGovern to be your guard long term. If 438 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: it's that close, you don't think you're gonna resign Connor Williams. 439 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: McGovern will probably be here, so you know, you would 440 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: hate to just keep playing, Um, you know Connor Williams 441 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: and then he's gone, and then McGovern hasn't gotten enough 442 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: snaps if it's close, because you still got to play 443 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: you know this game. Um, Because I was about to 444 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: have this whole point about what Amber just said about 445 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: not getting ahead of yourself and live in moments a moment, 446 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: and then you ask me that, and I take it 447 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: big picture because I do think it's you. You have 448 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: to take a big picture approach. Um. I think Connor 449 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: Williams played better at guard than McGovern yesterday. Um, we 450 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: just talked about the penalties with with Connor Williams, but 451 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: for the most part he blocks pretty well. McGovern I 452 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: thought was getting beat handily, and again Chris Jones had 453 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: a big hand in that. But um, I go one 454 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: more week with McGovern, see if he can fix it. 455 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: But I think you probably better at guard in fullback 456 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: if Connor Williams goes back. All right, now, step back 457 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: and tell me the point you were going to make 458 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: before I ask you that question. Oh, I was just 459 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: gonna say that, like we all are guilty of this. 460 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: I mean, we do it, We get in trouble, we 461 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: get ahead of ourselves. And now I think if you 462 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: just stop looking way down the line and look back 463 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: and go NFC East, let's win this division. We gotta lead. 464 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: But those teams are coming now. The Eagles look like 465 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: they're better, Washington's getting better. So I think the focus 466 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: has to change from oh, well do you get to 467 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: buy do you get the second? How about win the division? 468 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: Let's do that and then not get to ahead of like, well, 469 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: I'm so disappointed of what could be because this is 470 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: a roller coaster season. We'll think differently about the Cowboys 471 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 1: on Friday when they smash the Raiders or whatever, and 472 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: we're like, oh, but we're back again, you know. So 473 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: I just think we gotta take it a little bit 474 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: closer and not look big picture, as I just said, 475 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: the big picture for the Guards. I'm talking out of 476 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: the sides of the mouth. No, you are right though, 477 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: and I'm We've brought it up a million times. We 478 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: brought it up after the Denver game, and I mean 479 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: they didn't even I mean, they got their ass kicked 480 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: in this game, but not it's different, right, Like you 481 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: feel better about that loss than the Denver loss. Um 482 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: And and yeah, I mean somebody, somebody in this league 483 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: that looks terrible right now is is gonna get hot. 484 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: And somebody that's hot right now is gonna turn around 485 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: and be like, man, why we thought we were really 486 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: good a month ago. Hopefully he is not the cow 487 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: Hopefully it's not the Cowboys, which and I think that's 488 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: why that's why this game is just so disappointing, because 489 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: and this doesn't ultimately mean anything at the end of 490 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: the day, but it this was a narrative game. This 491 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 1: was a game that meant a lot to all of 492 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 1: that stuff that Nick's totally right. My dumbass wrote eleven 493 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: hundred words about how dat could make an MVP statement 494 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: on Sunday. That's all I could think about all through 495 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: the second half. If I was, like, my dumbass really 496 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: believed that this was going to happen, and I get it, 497 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: still could, but you gotta shelve it. You gotta shelve 498 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,400 Speaker 1: it for at least like the next three weeks. Because 499 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: he didn't need to win that game. But they just 500 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: they need to play better. That's I don't even care 501 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: that they lost. I just wanted them to play better. Yeah. 502 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: I think the tough part at this point is going 503 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: to what Amber was talking about. I don't think I mean, 504 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 1: you could say the Arizona game, but I don't think 505 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: there's going to be a real opportunity for me. I'm 506 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,479 Speaker 1: talking about me personally, for me to get a gauge 507 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: on how confident I am that in the playoffs they're 508 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: going to be able to roll through two or three 509 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: playoff caliber teams to get where they want to go. Right. 510 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: That's the part where you know, I was hopeful that 511 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: last night they would give me a glimpse of that 512 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: to where I could say, you know, not only are 513 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: they a good team, because I think they're a good team, 514 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: and I still believe they're a good team. I think 515 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: they're not only a good team. I think they're a 516 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: good team that knows how to win against great other 517 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: great teams, and that I just don't think you're gonna 518 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: get there this year like you can maybe say the 519 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: Arizona game. I just don't think you're gonna get there 520 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: this year until you see it in the playoffs. And 521 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 1: so for me, I'm gonna go into playoffs no matter 522 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: what happens down the stretch. I'm gonna go into the 523 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: playoffs a little bit skeptical because I just haven't seen 524 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: it yet. I haven't seen them be able to beat 525 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 1: those upper echelon teams. All we're gonna take our final 526 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: break and we come back this super Bowl. It's not 527 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: in my vocabulary. Oh whatever age I move into my 528 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: standby list or they are. Yeah, in three weeks, you're 529 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: gonna be up up on the topic that you just 530 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 1: gotta find that they you gotta find the middle ground. Man. 531 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: Come on, No, it's just one way or the other. 532 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: I don't like being in the middle. I will teach 533 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 1: you how to sit on the fence. It's actually quite comfortable. No, actually, 534 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: just watch Nick and Dave and how they treat their 535 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: college teams like they'll be the first one to talk 536 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 1: down their college team and hopes that they overachieve whatever 537 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: their thoughts. Right, And that's how you keep yourself right 538 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: there in the middle, like I don't know, and then 539 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: they exceed your expectations. Right, all right? What is need 540 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: to do? Oh? All right? And saw here we go. 541 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take our final break.

Pollard 595 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: was six carriage forty six yards a seven point seven average. 596 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: Were you surprised that they didn't run more? They only 597 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: had eleven rushes in the first half and then only 598 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: five in the second half. This game never really was 599 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: out of reach for them. Were you surprised they didn't 600 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 1: run more. I'm not surprised they didn't run more. I'm 601 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: surprised they couldn't run. I mean, i've seven point seven 602 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: average for Pollard. That doesn't mean that doesn't even hand 603 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: on all of that. On the one funny Wildcat, it 604 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: was a thirty yard run thirty one, I think it was, Yeah, 605 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 1: it was one. I mean, going between the tackles was 606 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: not happening for anybody yesterday, probably because Chris Jones, if 607 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: I had to guess, and Jaren Reid, and I mean, no, 608 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: I'm shocked that it didn't work better. I thought that 609 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: they had the capacity to run for one thirty one 610 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: forty one fifty they didn't. But sometimes isn't that about 611 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 1: being committed to it? Because I don't feel like they 612 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: were committed to it enough to let it work right, 613 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: And I disagree. I just look at how little time 614 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: Dak had to throw, he got sacked five times, how 615 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: many times they didn't break through the second level. No, 616 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 1: I just I think Kansas City knew that Dallas didn't 617 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: have a way to beat them downfield and was just like, well, 618 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: this is all you got and you're not doing it. 619 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: And so in that way, I kind of commend the 620 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys for trying to do something else, but again, they 621 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: didn't have a way to throw the ball down field. 622 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, oh, I'm stealing this from my friend Robert 623 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 1: Mays's podcast, but I thought it was an amazing stat 624 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: on balls that traveled ten or more yards. Yesterday, Dak 625 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: was four of seventeen for fifty eight yards. I mean, 626 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: it's just that day at the office. But surprised it 627 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: didn't work, yes, Surprised that they stopped no, because I 628 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: think they could have run one hundred times and it 629 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't have gone a whole lot better. M Yeah, I 630 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: think that sometimes, Yes, you can commit to the run 631 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: and it eventually starts working out. But that's like, what's 632 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: the wall made out of? Is it foam? Then you 633 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: keep banging banking, it's gonna you're gonna create a hole 634 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: and punch through and go at it. But this wall 635 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: was not breaking at all, and it was completely solid. 636 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: Like I saw multiple plays where Zik is running and 637 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: Boom just falls back like bouncing off. Which, by the way, 638 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 1: what's the deal with Zeke? Well that was gonna be 639 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: keeps getting hurt and then every time, well at least 640 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: the images that I see on the TV, anytime he's 641 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 1: trying to get checked and he does go back and 642 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 1: goes and enters the game again, but he's just like 643 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: pushing off the medical staff, doesn't want to get checked 644 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: by anybody, just goes back in. And I get it, 645 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: Dave's it's football. Well, it is part of the game 646 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: you want to do. I get it. But my point 647 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: is it's like, um, I guess we're seeing it. You 648 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: don't have a fully healthy seat, and it's clearly affecting 649 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: the game. And Polor he's starting to lose that little 650 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: spark that he's shown to have, at least in my eyes, 651 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: he hasn't been the polar that I was used to 652 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: see him, at least even last year in moments where 653 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: he was really a spark in the offense, to a 654 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: point where we were discussing, Okay, is he really better 655 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: than Zeke? Shoot, he get more snaps in there and 656 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: get more play in time. But I don't know, It's 657 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: just nothing was working for them yesterday, Nick, you surprise 658 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: they didn't run it more. You know, I'm actually doing 659 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: a little math here, which is not good for anyone, 660 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: but I'm just I'm looking at the first first down 661 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: runs and you know, could you be like it's sometimes 662 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: it's that balance of did they run the ball well 663 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 1: or could they not run? Like Dave said, first down 664 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: runs two minus one zero one five two three zero 665 00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: eight one four zero four. So I don't know what 666 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: the math is on that. I haven't added that up yet, 667 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 1: but like, they weren't running a lot on first down 668 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: very well, would kind of set them back behind the chains. 669 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 1: And so I think they tried to run some but 670 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: it just it just wasn't really working and then they 671 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: kind of got behind. But you know, I to answer 672 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: the question about Zeke. We talked to him and the 673 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: trainers afterwards, and it was an ankle. It was listed 674 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 1: as an ankle, but that's not really a big issue. 675 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: They just kind of kind of rolled on the knees 676 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: the one that's bothering him. That's just been the problematic 677 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: for about five weeks now, and it happened again. But 678 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 1: I asked them about playing Thursday, and he kind of 679 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think he was gonna give me a 680 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: social Security number before he said no, I'm not playing. 681 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 1: He was like, let's yeah, I'm playing. So do you 682 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 1: think this is a situation where maybe do you think 683 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 1: it's maybe a situation where the coaches should step in 684 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,720 Speaker 1: and at least maybe consider the fact that they should 685 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 1: sit him down for a week and let him get 686 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 1: a little healthier, because I don't honestly, I don't know 687 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: if you're getting everything out of Zeke did you expect 688 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,399 Speaker 1: to get out of him? You're asking me or Nick both, 689 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: I'm asking everybody, Nick ahead, not yet. I mean, I 690 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,879 Speaker 1: think if it was a real problem, I don't think 691 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: he'd be at the end of the game doing two 692 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 1: point conversions against Denver. He'd be playing at the end. 693 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think it's a real problem. I 694 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: don't think he would. He was struggled because of the 695 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 1: injury yesterday. I don't think they could run the ball. 696 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,720 Speaker 1: Like Dave said, the one run was a trick play 697 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,839 Speaker 1: really from Tony Pollard, a great call, but like they 698 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: couldn't really get it done. I see what he does 699 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: on Thursday and and and try one more week there. 700 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 1: If he's still hobbled, then yeah, maybe you do shut 701 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 1: him down for a week. Football players play football during 702 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: football season. I mean, everybody on this team is dealing 703 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: with stuff like this, and Mary Cooper has been fighting 704 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: through it all year. And and that's I laughed at 705 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 1: Ag a little bit because I was like, can you 706 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: imagine the uproar if Zeke Winton sat himself down on 707 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 1: the bench, was like, monee hurts, I can't go back in. No, 708 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 1: you want him pushing the medical guys away, Like, get 709 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 1: the f off me. We're playing the Chiefs football. I 710 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: Am going back in this game. And he'll be there Thursday, 711 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 1: and he'll be there against New Orleans as long as 712 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: nothing terrible happens on Thanksgiving, and then he'll get a 713 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 1: mini buy. It's not a real buy. But yeah, I mean, 714 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,919 Speaker 1: you just gotta get through this stretch. Give these guys 715 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 1: a long weekend off. I'm not gonna say get healthy, 716 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 1: but just give him a long weekend off to get 717 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: off their feet. Two games from now, this is what 718 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: I gotta get. Two games. Yeah, they gotta get through 719 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 1: two games. Welcome to pro football, right, you gotta get 720 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 1: through two games. But if you get to that, you'll 721 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 1: have ten days maybe you can't have a chance to 722 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: kind of and by the way, maybe you get some 723 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: reinforcements back after that. Yep, who knows? All right, real quick, 724 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,320 Speaker 1: before were in the show. I gotta get something positive 725 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,800 Speaker 1: for him because right now I don't think she's feeling 726 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: any positivity. Michael Parsons like, if there was anything that 727 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: came out of that game that you look at and 728 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: you're like, man, this is this is really good for 729 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: the calbum, I'll do one better. And I mean we 730 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 1: talked about it. But if you're willing to put the 731 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: rose colored glasses on amber and just follow me here, 732 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 1: if you're willing to just have some hope, follow me, 733 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 1: follow me the defense ball man. Yeah, they did the 734 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: ball nineteen points allout at that's if they play, if 735 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: they can play even close to that on a consistent basis, 736 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: get some guys back. You could be cooking with some 737 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: gas there. And yeah, go ahead and talk about Micah 738 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 1: because he was amazing. Well. Micah stat line four tackles, 739 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 1: two sacks, three quarterbacks, hit hits, one forced fumble, and 740 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: he was even more than than what showed up on 741 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: this sheet. The stat sheet the number of times he 742 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 1: was in the backfield and was forcing Mahomes to either 743 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 1: move or forcing Mahomes to get rid of the ball. 744 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: Quicker like that didn't show up necessarily on the stat line. Um, 745 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: he had I thought a phenomenal game. And my question 746 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 1: for you guys, it's one that we've asked almost every 747 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: week of this season, is he had better defensive end 748 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: at this point than an off ball line background. I 749 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: had been of the opinion that, yeah, move them around, 750 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 1: do a lot of things. But what he's doing right 751 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 1: now a defensive end, we haven't seen a rookie do 752 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 1: this since DeMarcus ware That. I mean, that's special. He 753 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 1: is a special rusher. Should they consider keeping him there 754 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: full time? Nick, you want to take this first. You 755 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 1: know I've been fighting this off like the Plague. I mean, 756 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: I've been trying because I feel like you'll be a 757 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: better linebacker. But I mean, he without a doubt, he's 758 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: a great pass rusher. And if you look at his 759 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: stats now, I mean he's got eight I think it's 760 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 1: about even four and four. I think he's got four 761 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 1: sacks rushing from the edge and he's got four going 762 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 1: up in the middle. I think he can rush to 763 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 1: the quarterback. So then it comes back to your offensive 764 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 1: line type theory. Best rushers out there, when Gregory comes back, 765 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: d Law comes back. I mean, I want them all 766 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 1: out there. And so I think I think there's a 767 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: role still for him to play linebacker. But maybe on 768 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:01,240 Speaker 1: third downs. He can move and slide sometimes rushes different places. 769 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: There's just a lot of ways to do it. I'm 770 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: still calling him a linebacker, but man, he can definitely 771 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,399 Speaker 1: get to the quarterback in a variety of ways. Nick 772 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 1: did a great job of not answering that question. I 773 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: will I will plant my flag here on this go ahead. 774 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I didn't answer it. I didn't answer 775 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 1: I want him to be a linebacker. I want him 776 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 1: to be a linebacker because I think I think I 777 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: want him on the field if he has to rotate, 778 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 1: and I don't want that get on the field. Let 779 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: him play, and that's what I want him to be 780 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:41,320 Speaker 1: on the field, duck, I will plant my flag and 781 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: die on this hill. Why are we trying to give 782 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: people positions? In twenty twenty one? We put him out there. 783 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: We are we are. We are moving toward positionless football 784 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 1: in the way that basketball doesn't have positions, Like you 785 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: want to stick Lebron James at the four just because 786 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 1: he's big, or do you want him doing everything because 787 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 1: he can play point three, four and five if he 788 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: wants to. I want Micah Parsons doing whatever the hell 789 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 1: the offense can't handle, if the offensive because he can 790 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 1: do it all. We don't have to put this guy 791 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 1: in a box. It drives me crazy. I don't want 792 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: him out there forty five percent of the time rushing 793 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,800 Speaker 1: the passer. I want him out there ninety eight percent 794 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: of the time, and I only want the two percent 795 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: to be because he stubbed his toe. I want him 796 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 1: to do everything. I want him to be a spy 797 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: if that's what the matchup calls for. I want him 798 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 1: to be rushing the passer. If they're shorthanded, or if 799 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 1: the other team's offensive line is lacking, I want him 800 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,800 Speaker 1: going sideline to sideline and snuffing out runs and screens. 801 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: If that's what him. I mean, think about what he 802 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 1: did against Minnesota and how valuable that was. Didn't think 803 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,280 Speaker 1: about what he did against Kansas City and how valuable 804 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 1: that was. And then for some reason, I have to 805 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 1: choose one of those instead of both. Now I'm good. 806 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna have it all. I'm gonna have my 807 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,879 Speaker 1: cake and eat it too, and I resent anybody that's 808 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 1: gonna try to make me make this call. MICA's job 809 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: should change every week based on what dan Quinn thinks 810 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: he can do, and we're just gonna roll with it 811 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,240 Speaker 1: for the next decade and he's gonna be a monster. Sorry, 812 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: don't apologize. Would you say, Nick, that's a cow bye 813 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: it is, that's a cow bite. I don't know who's 814 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 1: cutting I don't know who's cutting them back there, but 815 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: that Dave, what you said, I want him doing what 816 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: the other guys can't do. Or I don't know how 817 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: you worded it, but like that was well said. It 818 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 1: was so well said that I forgot it. But like 819 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 1: I said, I want them. I want them doing what 820 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: the other guys can't handle. That's that's the that's the 821 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 1: making of a star. That's a superstar right there. This 822 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: is this and that, and that's what he is. This 823 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 1: is people love to create problems where there aren't any. 824 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: I want him to do everything, and he has not 825 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 1: given me any indication that he can't handle it. So 826 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm just dan Quinn, just give like enough leash that 827 00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: you don't lose him completely, but just let him run, man, 828 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 1: just let him go. Amber you agree with this absolutely. 829 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: I mean last night, Um, he tweeted something. What did 830 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 1: he say? I believe or believe in something? I forgot 831 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,359 Speaker 1: exactly the word basically believe, basically believe, believing us. We're good. 832 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: He almost had it had me, I said, I tweet 833 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I believing you, but I'm believing you 834 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: for sure. He almost pulled me back in there. But um, 835 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: and going back real quick to Dave's pink glasses here 836 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 1: that I was trying to envision and imagine and I'm 837 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: just like, as I'm listening to what you were saying, 838 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 1: and I got my pink glasses on, I'm like, okay, okay, 839 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,720 Speaker 1: Doomsday's back, baby. No, you know what happened. In my vision, 840 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense is scoring points finally, and then the 841 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:01,720 Speaker 1: defense is playing like crap and not doing You're probably 842 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 1: hurting myself right now, but I just this is how 843 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 1: I feel today out of Monday. After a loss against 844 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 1: You're allowed. That's you process it however you need, and 845 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 1: then you hop right back on and go for another row. 846 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 1: But the thing to the thing that can make you 847 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: feel a little bit better about that is it's it's 848 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: Jerry likes to say this. If you show me you 849 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 1: can do it once, that means you can do it again. 850 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: And so if you can see these kinds of performances 851 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: from the defense, because the defense, this isn't the first 852 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 1: time the season when this defense is played like this, 853 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: I think what we're seeing more and more is that 854 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:33,280 Speaker 1: this defense has the ability to clamp down on opposing teams. 855 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 1: And even if it starts off kind of a little, 856 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,359 Speaker 1: you know, a little shaky it did against Atlanta. Even 857 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: even if it's it could start off a little shaky, 858 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: once they find out what they're doing and they figure 859 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 1: it out, this defense has the ability to really lock down. 860 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 1: And so that's a good thing for you going forward. 861 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: You get some of those pass rushers back, you feel 862 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 1: good about your defense. This offense, although they've lost, they've 863 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 1: only been two games, and in both games when they lost, 864 00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, two of the three games when they lost, 865 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 1: this offense didn't perform. Well. That's still gotta be the key. Though. 866 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 1: They still got to score points. I don't think they're 867 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 1: gonna win necessarily just playing defense. I think they're gonna 868 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,840 Speaker 1: have to score points. And that's where you have to wonder, 869 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 1: like you know, it was this all just about tiring 870 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,360 Speaker 1: in Amari being out and then not having CD in 871 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 1: the second half. If you believe that, then you should 872 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 1: feel pretty good about this. They only lost about ten 873 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,279 Speaker 1: in that scenario. If if if you feel like it's 874 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: more than that, then you're probably a little bit worried. 875 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,400 Speaker 1: And this is where you see where it comes out 876 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Shout out to Greg Sterling only one 877 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:34,839 Speaker 1: scoring points. He made a nick and I talked about 878 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 1: this last night, like I'm I'm getting tired of seeing 879 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: in the number nine in these big Cowboy games. It 880 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 1: just seems like it happens a lot. Yeah. Yeah, the 881 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 1: Cowboys said the same thing. That's that's why they cut Jalen. Oh, 882 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 1: that wasn't a shot out. Jal was thinking about the 883 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 1: Eagles game in the news. I know, yeah, I know, 884 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 1: you know, I know when they don't score a point 885 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 1: and they don't score touchdowns when touchdowns is important. Yeah, 886 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,320 Speaker 1: who would have thought. I mean, I was, I was 887 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 1: worried about the weather all week. I'm saying, yeah, what 888 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 1: is the wind? What is the wind? And all that stuff, 889 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 1: and it's like low key, but it's a factor. It 890 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like it is, but when you're down there, 891 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 1: it is a problem. And I know the kicker made 892 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,440 Speaker 1: the field goals, but like, it just affects the passing game. 893 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 1: And I bet you had affected Mahomes too. He wasn't 894 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:30,359 Speaker 1: that great either. So I mean, it just what there's something, 895 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: but get used to it because that's what happens in 896 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: December and January, and when you're not playing at at 897 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,319 Speaker 1: and T Stadium, you're gonna deal with that. So it's 898 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,800 Speaker 1: something to consider here when you get into the playoffs. 899 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,280 Speaker 1: All right, we appreciate you guys joining us.
