0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:49.360
<v Speaker 3>of minutes, in a moment, in a moment. Okay, do

0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:53.400
<v Speaker 3>you think when he was with the Giants, could he

0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 3>call ahead and say he was running ten minutes late

0:00:57.160 --> 0:00:59.319
<v Speaker 3>and Howard Parcels react to that?

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 4>Beyond time?

0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:06.679
<v Speaker 5>Minds me of the summer that Keishawn Johnson was with

0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:10.240
<v Speaker 5>the Cowboys for the first time, and he had gone

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:13.360
<v Speaker 5>to Santa Barbara to see his daughter in a Michael

0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:18.440
<v Speaker 5>Jordan basketball camp Sunday. Uh huh, Well, he didn't realize

0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 5>that on Sunday the traffic on the Pacific Coast Highway

0:01:24.560 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 5>is backed up going back towards LA and he was

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:29.240
<v Speaker 5>in a traffic gym, and he knew he was going

0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 5>to be late for the team meeting at six o'clock.

0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:37.039
<v Speaker 5>He called Bill and he goes, got no shot to

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.480
<v Speaker 5>get in their coach, he goes, whatever the fine is,

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:45.880
<v Speaker 5>let me know, Well, we don't find people, No, we don't.

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 3>We don't, so but we await the arrival of That's right,

0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 3>Well he will make a grand entrance here shortly. Cowboys

0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:55.520
<v Speaker 3>have a later schedule than what we are accustomed to

0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:59.559
<v Speaker 3>on Wednesdays, and I assume that's because of the Sunday

0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:01.640
<v Speaker 3>night game. It's given him a little extra time.

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:05.200
<v Speaker 5>Yes, I think Mike made reference to trying to keep

0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:07.720
<v Speaker 5>get the guys off their feet as much as they

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 5>can because of the later rival. I mean, I didn't

0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:13.400
<v Speaker 5>put my head down on a pill and I didn't

0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:16.080
<v Speaker 5>play in the game till five o'clock in the morning

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:16.720
<v Speaker 5>on Monday.

0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 3>So that does not count as a full day of

0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 3>rest for the team.

0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 5>Not really, because I'm sure they had sick call and

0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:28.920
<v Speaker 5>then they had a meeting and Tuesday was the day off.

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 5>But I think he's just kind of trying.

0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:35.359
<v Speaker 3>To basically, instead of a three twenty five kickoff, it

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:37.960
<v Speaker 3>was a it was four hours later, So you just

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:42.200
<v Speaker 3>pushed the schedule back on Wednesday four hours basically, yeah,

0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:43.400
<v Speaker 3>what it amounts.

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:47.880
<v Speaker 5>To get them off their feet, let them cooperate, cooperate, Okay, recuperate.

0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:51.799
<v Speaker 3>So the Mike McCarthy press conference coming up later this afternoon,

0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:56.519
<v Speaker 3>our availability with the players later this afternoon, and as

0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:59.640
<v Speaker 3>they get set to uh face these New York Jets,

0:02:59.840 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 3>and it will be interesting to see what the Jets

0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:06.959
<v Speaker 3>have as they we know they won't have Aaron Rodgers

0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:11.480
<v Speaker 3>when they come here on a Sunday afternoon. But I'd

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.760
<v Speaker 3>like to get into it a little bit after Everson

0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 3>gets here just how equipped this Jets team is to

0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 3>win games without Aaron Rodgers at a quarterback. But first off,

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 3>let's just get.

0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 5>They already won a game, and they did.

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:27.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean there was proof positive right there against a

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:31.160
<v Speaker 3>team that some people meaning me picked to be in

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:34.519
<v Speaker 3>the Super Bowl this year. Oh no, one person meaning

0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 3>me picked Josh Allen to be the MVP of the league.

0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 3>Didn't get off to a straight start.

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 5>I wanted to tell you this so because of the

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 5>way the Jets won the game. Yes, Xavier Gibson with

0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:54.720
<v Speaker 5>the punt return sixty four yards in overtime for the

0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:59.119
<v Speaker 5>touchdown and finding out he was a local, local guy yep,

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:03.560
<v Speaker 5>motivated me last night to go watch the last three

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.520
<v Speaker 5>episodes of Hard Knocks. Okay, I wanted to see if

0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:08.680
<v Speaker 5>he was kind of part of it at any point.

0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:10.240
<v Speaker 3>Yes, he was, well, he was.

0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 5>I was surprised somewhat, but it was a storyline, undrafted

0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:22.560
<v Speaker 5>rookie wide receiver. He and the other guy's name was

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:23.920
<v Speaker 5>it was it Brownlee?

0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:26.000
<v Speaker 3>Jason Brownlee.

0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:29.120
<v Speaker 5>Yes, so they were kind of buds. They kind of

0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.200
<v Speaker 5>hung out together because they were both in the same boat.

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:35.120
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you what my daughter did. As soon as

0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:37.400
<v Speaker 3>he returned the punt for a touchdown, she texted me

0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:41.600
<v Speaker 3>and it was OMG, oh my god, that's Gibson. I

0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:43.560
<v Speaker 3>loved him on Hard Knocks.

0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.160
<v Speaker 5>Right, see, So I went and watched it. So it

0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:49.800
<v Speaker 5>got to the last episode where they were showing the cuts, right,

0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:56.039
<v Speaker 5>So Brownlee gets called in first, and they kind of

0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 5>screwed with them and then finally told them, okay, you

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:02.360
<v Speaker 5>made the team. Well here comes Gibson. He goes in.

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:06.479
<v Speaker 5>He's with Joe Douglas and Robert Salah, the head coach

0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:10.960
<v Speaker 5>the GM, and they started going on and on he goes, hey, man,

0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:14.600
<v Speaker 5>you did everything. I understand how you got here. You

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:18.000
<v Speaker 5>weren't drafted, it was a long shot. You gave us

0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 5>the best effort. He goes, but this is a business

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:23.760
<v Speaker 5>and we got only fifty three guys to make it.

0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:26.719
<v Speaker 5>And you can see the kid dying on the couch right,

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.599
<v Speaker 5>and they're just they're just killing them. And and he goes,

0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:33.240
<v Speaker 5>and you know, we only can keep fifty three guys,

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 5>and you're one of them.

0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:36.240
<v Speaker 3>You're a New York Jet.

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:39.160
<v Speaker 5>And I thought he was just gonna pass out. And

0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:39.880
<v Speaker 5>it was.

0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 3>It was. He had he said it was the longest

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.560
<v Speaker 3>twenty minute drive ever. It is right because he had

0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 3>they told him come come to the office. Yeah, twenty

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:48.839
<v Speaker 3>minute drive away.

0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:49.280
<v Speaker 2>It was.

0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:52.320
<v Speaker 5>It was really good. And and you had to love

0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:54.520
<v Speaker 5>the kid right, just the way he acted, just the

0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 5>way he interacted with the team during during that whole deal.

0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:02.760
<v Speaker 5>And I didn't realize that, you know, somebody knew about

0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:04.919
<v Speaker 5>him prior to the punt return.

0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 3>And he you know, he really did a lot in

0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:08.039
<v Speaker 3>four years at Stephen F.

0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Austin.

0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:12.800
<v Speaker 3>He was a In fact, he was recruited as a cornerback.

0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 3>He played cornerback in high school at Woodrow Wilson and

0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:21.840
<v Speaker 3>probably playing offense as well. Uh I actually called his

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:26.360
<v Speaker 3>high school coach, Bobby Estes, who's now at Thomas Jefferson.

0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:28.599
<v Speaker 3>By the way, the Cowboys did a great thing yesterday.

0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 3>It was a lot of the rookies. Charles Haley was there,

0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:35.680
<v Speaker 3>Charlotte Jones was there. They dedicated a new football field

0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:40.680
<v Speaker 3>at Thomas Jefferson was their school and the facilities ruined

0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 3>back by the tornado which happened during that Sunday night

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:47.520
<v Speaker 3>Cowboys game a few years ago. And uh so they

0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:49.839
<v Speaker 3>were out there yesterday, had the field dedication. But I

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.520
<v Speaker 3>talked to his old high school coach, and you know

0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:57.040
<v Speaker 3>they have they have morning practices, and uh so, he

0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:58.960
<v Speaker 3>said he went to bed at halftime of the game.

0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:03.839
<v Speaker 3>But two sons who played with Zay Gibson at Woodrow Wilson,

0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:05.520
<v Speaker 3>and so he got a call from one of them

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 3>at ten to fifteen Monday night, waking him up saying, Dad, Dad,

0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:13.360
<v Speaker 3>did you see Zay. His other son calls about ten

0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 3>minutes later, wakes him up again, just falling back asleep.

0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.040
<v Speaker 3>Hey Dad, Dad, did you see Zay?

0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:20.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm aware of it.

0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.200
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, Anyway, his phone was ringing off the.

0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:27.120
<v Speaker 6>Pretty pretty good story and speaking of undrafted free agents

0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:33.280
<v Speaker 6>who arrived early in his NFL career despite being an

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 6>undrafted free agent.

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 3>Everson Wallas is here.

0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 2>We're talking about way too much fun without me.

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:42.520
<v Speaker 3>We're talking about Xavier Gibson, the pride of Woodrow Wilson.

0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:44.880
<v Speaker 7>High School with the playing golf with someone that went

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.880
<v Speaker 7>to his high school from Charles Hayton.

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Just a peon, just a guy. Well he was on

0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 2>my golf team.

0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:56.160
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and he went to Woodrow Wilson who had the

0:07:56.280 --> 0:08:00.480
<v Speaker 7>Charles Haley golf tournament at the Cowboys Court today.

0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:04.440
<v Speaker 5>And so did we ask you this how you found

0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:07.840
<v Speaker 5>out you made the team? We were just telling the

0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 5>story he found out because they played him on hard nun.

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:13.360
<v Speaker 3>The GM and the head coach they.

0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 5>You're an undrafted creag.

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 2>No, we we knew uh when we came.

0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 7>They just said, you know, no one came to the

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.360
<v Speaker 7>room at all to say I made the team. Once

0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:29.720
<v Speaker 7>we went to the meeting, then Tom Landry was there

0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:32.839
<v Speaker 7>and he said, this is what we're going with and

0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:33.400
<v Speaker 7>that was it.

0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:34.680
<v Speaker 2>That's how I knew.

0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:36.360
<v Speaker 5>Like because you were in the meeting, that meant you

0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:36.720
<v Speaker 5>made it.

0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:41.080
<v Speaker 3>You made because you didn't get called into another meeting,

0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:41.640
<v Speaker 3>called out.

0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:44.200
<v Speaker 5>So when you said they didn't come to the room,

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:45.959
<v Speaker 5>did they do this in training camp or.

0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:48.440
<v Speaker 2>I remember the twin sixties.

0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.000
<v Speaker 5>Oh, you were staying in the hotel.

0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:52.880
<v Speaker 7>Twin sixties hotel. They put us all up there. And

0:08:52.920 --> 0:08:55.720
<v Speaker 7>I remember when we came to the meeting. We knew

0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:58.400
<v Speaker 7>how many dbs were gonna make the team because we

0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 7>were all counting stuff. And we walked into the room

0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:04.440
<v Speaker 7>and there was the same amount of dbs as it

0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:07.960
<v Speaker 7>was before the last preseason game. And so we're like, hey,

0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 7>something's going on. There's too many people, too many DB's,

0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 7>And by the time the meeting was over, there was

0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 7>one less dB. But we didn't know it until the

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:22.400
<v Speaker 7>meeting was over. They had come and tapped Aaron Mitchell

0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:25.760
<v Speaker 7>on his shoulder and told him, you're going to Tampa.

0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.280
<v Speaker 7>And that's how we found out. So traded what we're going.

0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:31.000
<v Speaker 5>So they traded to make room for you and.

0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:34.080
<v Speaker 7>Make me and downs, and I remember, as a matter

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:38.120
<v Speaker 7>of fact, Tom didn't say anything. It was when we

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:41.880
<v Speaker 7>broke off into our own section, our own you know,

0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.960
<v Speaker 7>dB section, that that's when Gene Starling said, this is

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:49.600
<v Speaker 7>what we're going with. Tom Landry never said hey, congratulations,

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:52.400
<v Speaker 7>You guys got this confused with normalcy.

0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:55.320
<v Speaker 2>This was not how we did it back in the day.

0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:59.320
<v Speaker 7>It was as crude as ever, always crude. There was

0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 7>nothing de about anything. They didn't say anything until we

0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:07.720
<v Speaker 7>sat in the dB meeting room at that time and

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:11.000
<v Speaker 7>we looked around and Mitch was gone, Aaron Mitchell was gone,

0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:14.880
<v Speaker 7>and that's how we knew. Tom Jeane started said, okay, guys,

0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:16.280
<v Speaker 7>this is what we're going with.

0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:18.280
<v Speaker 3>They didn't have cameras in the room.

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:23.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, they didn't have to play or anything, you know.

0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 2>Very unceremonial.

0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:30.880
<v Speaker 5>That's what I can s ever, good job, you played hard,

0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:34.680
<v Speaker 5>but we only have this many spots. Nope, and you

0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 5>made it.

0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:38.160
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, none of that, none of the congratulations, none of that.

0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:41.000
<v Speaker 7>It was almost as if Jane Starling was pissed that

0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:44.560
<v Speaker 7>this is what he was left with. You had two

0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:47.480
<v Speaker 7>undrefted free agents and me and Michael Downs. You had

0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.439
<v Speaker 7>uh Ron Fellows it was a seventh round draft pick,

0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:54.560
<v Speaker 7>like seventh A. And then you had Dennisterrman. So come on,

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:56.600
<v Speaker 7>would you be happy with that group? Not knowing what

0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:57.319
<v Speaker 7>the heck was going on?

0:10:58.120 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 2>Jane was like, I am freaking cursed here.

0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.760
<v Speaker 7>And the way he came to us was like, Okay,

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:04.760
<v Speaker 7>this is what we're going with. You guys are going

0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.920
<v Speaker 7>to work hard and I'm gonna make sure you got Okay, Jeane.

0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:10.959
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for congratulating us. It's almost like he.

0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:12.920
<v Speaker 5>Was upset there was no parade down there.

0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:15.560
<v Speaker 7>He seemed a little disappointed that this is what he

0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:19.280
<v Speaker 7>had to work, very disappointed.

0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:24.240
<v Speaker 3>All right, before we kicked things off with the Jets.

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:30.040
<v Speaker 3>Gilbrent memorial service was yesterday after afternoon and there was

0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:32.680
<v Speaker 3>a whole lot of former cowboys that were in attendance,

0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:33.840
<v Speaker 3>a lot of gold jackets.

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:36.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they said, well those gold jackets, they did they did?

0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:40.839
<v Speaker 5>They told them to, Well they listened because by my list,

0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:49.240
<v Speaker 5>Troy was there, Cliff Harris, Bob Lily, Drew Pears Pearson,

0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:54.040
<v Speaker 5>Roger Roger was there, Mel was there there, and Scott

0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:59.200
<v Speaker 5>Holly was standing in for Chuck Holly. And I think

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:02.160
<v Speaker 5>that was where the one size that had gold jackets

0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:05.520
<v Speaker 5>that had gold jackets on there was like eight of them.

0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:07.280
<v Speaker 5>I think I don't know how many I just said,

0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:11.120
<v Speaker 5>but yeah, it was a pretty impressive group and a

0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:15.520
<v Speaker 5>lot of the other former players showed up too. Timmy

0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:23.160
<v Speaker 5>Newsom was there, Preston Pearson, of course, John Fitzgerald DJ

0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:27.079
<v Speaker 5>was there, Chad Hennings and Chad Hennings. That's how he.

0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:30.439
<v Speaker 5>Gil was the one that drafted him when he still

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:35.040
<v Speaker 5>had to do Air Force service. I think they drafted

0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:38.880
<v Speaker 5>him late, maybe in the eighty eight draft, twelfth tenth,

0:12:38.960 --> 0:12:42.120
<v Speaker 5>twelfth round, something like that, and then he actually got

0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 5>released early and I think he made it there in

0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 5>ninety two, maybe ninety one, ninety two. So yeah, there

0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:52.520
<v Speaker 5>was a it was it was nice. It was nice

0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:56.040
<v Speaker 5>and I didn't see.

0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:58.040
<v Speaker 2>Him, but some reason he popped in my hand.

0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 5>I was like, well, because see us came after Gil

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.960
<v Speaker 5>was there. I had to leave because I had to

0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:08.200
<v Speaker 5>do TV at three o'clock. I never drove so fast

0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:12.680
<v Speaker 5>my life to get back here with one minute to

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:16.280
<v Speaker 5>spare right to get back. And it was like you

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:19.920
<v Speaker 5>but yeah, it was good and and and and you

0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.440
<v Speaker 5>know the I think it was the minister at the

0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:25.760
<v Speaker 5>end talking about how we all, you know, hope that

0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.840
<v Speaker 5>we make an impact on this world while we're here,

0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:32.320
<v Speaker 5>and talked about the impact that Gil made in so

0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:36.120
<v Speaker 5>many different ways, not what just what the cowboys, but

0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:40.559
<v Speaker 5>with the National Football League and some of the charities

0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:42.560
<v Speaker 5>he worked at. I wish I could have gone to

0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:46.400
<v Speaker 5>h They had a reception at Dallas Country Club afterwards.

0:13:47.080 --> 0:13:50.400
<v Speaker 5>I couldn't make it there. John Wooton was there. By

0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:54.640
<v Speaker 5>the way, John's getting old. He's in his eighties. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 5>but he's still getting around.

0:13:56.040 --> 0:13:58.640
<v Speaker 2>So spirit Spirit.

0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:03.880
<v Speaker 5>And and and Drew gave a eulogy, and he was

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:06.800
<v Speaker 5>talking about how Gil would go places where no one

0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:10.800
<v Speaker 5>else would go to find players and he goes in

0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 5>you know, a lot of us were overlooked, and he roses,

0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:21.680
<v Speaker 5>he raised his hand and he goes hello, Cliff, just

0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:26.840
<v Speaker 5>like that. So it was it was really nice, so

0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:31.000
<v Speaker 5>nice thing that Jones family was in there in entirety.

0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:33.600
<v Speaker 5>So it was a nice, nice service.

0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:37.520
<v Speaker 3>How about the bond that players have after their careers,

0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:39.920
<v Speaker 3>We were just talking about it. Gary Myers has a

0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 3>book out on the New York Giants. Once a Giant

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:45.600
<v Speaker 3>is the title of the book, and he's talking about

0:14:46.160 --> 0:14:49.880
<v Speaker 3>how the Giants players have. You know that they have

0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:53.440
<v Speaker 3>their own fraternity from the Super Bowl teams that they

0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:56.520
<v Speaker 3>had and so forth. It really is unique. Uh, you

0:14:56.520 --> 0:15:00.320
<v Speaker 3>don't find any I can't think of other professions where

0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:03.200
<v Speaker 3>you get a group that works together and there they

0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:05.760
<v Speaker 3>have the opportunity to get together on down the road

0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:06.400
<v Speaker 3>in life.

0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:09.080
<v Speaker 7>I know I only worked with the Giants for a

0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 7>few years, but yeah, they considered me part of that

0:15:12.640 --> 0:15:13.200
<v Speaker 7>that clan.

0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:14.480
<v Speaker 8>Uh.

0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.560
<v Speaker 7>But I must admit I think the Cowboys might have

0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:19.680
<v Speaker 7>the closest alumni group.

0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:22.760
<v Speaker 3>Part of it has to do I think that people, yeah,

0:15:22.840 --> 0:15:24.600
<v Speaker 3>living here right by the way.

0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:26.840
<v Speaker 2>I just the city itself.

0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:30.400
<v Speaker 5>I missed one of the gold Jackson, Tony Dorset and

0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:35.800
<v Speaker 5>looking good. Yeah, he's had a nice recovery from where

0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:38.600
<v Speaker 5>he was white. I didn't see Randy.

0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Randy.

0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:42.360
<v Speaker 7>Randy's trying to do better. He's he's been doing better

0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:46.160
<v Speaker 7>by himself. And and when you see him, you're happy.

0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:48.600
<v Speaker 5>And the one person I wanted to say hi, I do.

0:15:48.680 --> 0:15:51.440
<v Speaker 5>And I didn't get a chance to Jerry Mote motor

0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:57.800
<v Speaker 5>work in the PR department. She was there. She's still

0:15:57.960 --> 0:15:59.040
<v Speaker 5>motoring along.

0:16:00.760 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Ja man, that's the name.

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:06.400
<v Speaker 5>She was an old timer still is. I should say, all.

0:16:06.360 --> 0:16:08.400
<v Speaker 3>Right, Well, we got much to get to on the

0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:12.240
<v Speaker 3>Jets and the Cowboys. Later schedule for the Cowboys today,

0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:14.360
<v Speaker 3>we get into all of that when we come back

0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:15.520
<v Speaker 3>here on mixshots.

0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:20.560
<v Speaker 9>I'm Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, and they snapped.

0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:22.440
<v Speaker 5>The press guy who looks right, it's not there. He

0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:24.800
<v Speaker 5>escaped slapt He'll look full a punch down.

0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:27.520
<v Speaker 9>Just like football, when it comes to crypto, it's important

0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:30.160
<v Speaker 9>to have a team you can trust. With blockchain dot Com,

0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:32.640

<v Speaker 9>and trade crypto currency.

0:16:36.360 --> 0:16:39.520
<v Speaker 3>Prescott's gonna run this himself, run it up the middle,

<v Speaker 9>Get started at blockchain dot com.

0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:50.840
<v Speaker 8>You know that sound anywhere. It's the crisp crunch, that

0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:54.440
<v Speaker 8>first nacho chip with its perfect cheese to sour cream ratio,

0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:57.440
<v Speaker 8>sitting atop a layer of delicious beans. It's a sip

0:16:57.480 --> 0:17:02.000
<v Speaker 8>away from perfection. That's what we're looking for. Add a delicious,

0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:06.040
<v Speaker 8>refreshing pepsi, and we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana. Because while

0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:09.000
<v Speaker 8>you can pile those nachos high with every spicy, cheesy,

0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:13.880
<v Speaker 8>savory topping, there's no topping of school. Petsy finish nachos

0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:14.720
<v Speaker 8>better with PEPSI.

0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:17.960
<v Speaker 10>That's what I like. The Medal of Honor is our

0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:21.760
<v Speaker 10>country's highest military award for valor in combat. More than

0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:24.880
<v Speaker 10>forty million individuals have served in the armed forces since

0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:28.239
<v Speaker 10>the Civil War. Fewer than four thousand have received the

0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:31.680

<v Speaker 3>All right, and Cowboys and Jets three twenty five kickoff

0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:41.560
<v Speaker 3>Tony Romo will be on the call. And you know,

0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:45.040
<v Speaker 3>looking at this Jets team coming off the victory, it

0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:50.560
<v Speaker 3>was interesting driving in this morning listening to people talk

0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:52.920
<v Speaker 3>about the Jets and what are they going to do

0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 3>at quarterback now?

0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:54.080
<v Speaker 2>Right?

0:18:54.200 --> 0:18:56.320
<v Speaker 3>What in the world are they going to do at quarterback?

0:18:56.359 --> 0:18:58.120
<v Speaker 3>Who's out there that the Jets.

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:02.760
<v Speaker 2>Can sign Tom Brady And that one has.

0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Been mixed, I think by Tom Brady himself now. And

0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:11.320
<v Speaker 3>it's like it's crazy talk because even if there was

0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:14.840
<v Speaker 3>a Hall of Fame quarterback that was out of work

0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:17.679
<v Speaker 3>right now willing to come, he's not going to be

0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:20.880
<v Speaker 3>able to step in right now and do better than

0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:23.800
<v Speaker 3>the one who's been in camp and with them for

0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:24.560
<v Speaker 3>the last year.

0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:27.960
<v Speaker 7>It's like they don't realize that Tom didn't just when

0:19:28.000 --> 0:19:30.199
<v Speaker 7>Brady came to Tampa. He didn't just come in like

0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:33.320
<v Speaker 7>after the season started. He prepped with the team all

0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:36.240
<v Speaker 7>off season, He learned the system, you know, he was

0:19:36.440 --> 0:19:38.320
<v Speaker 7>ingrained in and all of a sudden, now he's ready

0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:40.720
<v Speaker 7>to play. But it wasn't You can't just come just

0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:41.679
<v Speaker 7>plug someone in.

0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:44.640
<v Speaker 5>I say, where Fitzmagic is doing commercials?

0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:50.760
<v Speaker 3>And you know, so, I mean even the talk Chad

0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:55.800
<v Speaker 3>Henney who retired and he was backing up the homes

0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:59.040
<v Speaker 3>in Kansas City most recently. But you look up and

0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:02.439
<v Speaker 3>what they they link it to. Okay, Nathaniel Hacket's the

0:20:02.440 --> 0:20:05.960
<v Speaker 3>offensive coordinator, and so who does he have a history with. Well,

0:20:06.000 --> 0:20:08.560
<v Speaker 3>he was in Jacksonville when Henny was in was a

0:20:08.600 --> 0:20:13.119
<v Speaker 3>backup in Jacksonville. And last time Chad Henney started a

0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:17.960
<v Speaker 3>game in the National Football League was it was twenty fourteen.

0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:22.400
<v Speaker 3>Oh twenty fourteen. It's been nine years since he started

0:20:22.400 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 3>a game. And okay, yeah, this guy's gonna do better.

0:20:24.760 --> 0:20:27.440
<v Speaker 3>There are a whole bunch of people in that Jets

0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:31.840
<v Speaker 3>front office, coaching staff, you name it, who thought enough

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:35.040
<v Speaker 3>about Zach Wilson that they made him the second pick

0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:38.600
<v Speaker 3>in the draft. Yeah, I mean they've hitched their wagon

0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:39.480
<v Speaker 3>to Zach Wilson.

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:43.040
<v Speaker 5>I saw somebody got a hold of Bill Parcells to

0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:48.200
<v Speaker 5>ask him about the deal with the Jets, and he goes, hey,

0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:52.160
<v Speaker 5>they don't cancel the season. You know, things happen. Don't

0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 5>care who you are, no excuses, And he goes in

0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:59.280
<v Speaker 5>in three weeks, he goes. You know, if they lose

0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:01.840
<v Speaker 5>a game, they're going to be talking about the cornerback

0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:04.720
<v Speaker 5>that missed the coverage or the wide receiver that dropped

0:21:04.720 --> 0:21:08.280
<v Speaker 5>the ball. They're going to forget who's playing quarterback. Right,

0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:11.200
<v Speaker 5>It's like injuries, right, you talk about injuries all week,

0:21:11.240 --> 0:21:13.240
<v Speaker 5>and then the team gets beaten. It's like, well, what

0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:15.960
<v Speaker 5>the hell happened? Well, we're missing three starters.

0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:18.280
<v Speaker 2>Nobody wants to hear that. No, no, no.

0:21:18.400 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 3>You know, to your point on Tom Brady, of course,

0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:23.240
<v Speaker 3>when he went to Tampa Bay, that was the COVID year.

0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:25.639
<v Speaker 3>COVID hit in March of that year, and there was

0:21:25.720 --> 0:21:28.600
<v Speaker 3>all the video that Tom Brady got his receivers out

0:21:28.680 --> 0:21:33.080
<v Speaker 3>on football fields, practice fields in high schools in the

0:21:33.119 --> 0:21:38.040
<v Speaker 3>Tampa area or wherever to get him ready, get acclimated

0:21:38.080 --> 0:21:40.280
<v Speaker 3>to his new receiving corp and everything. Probably gave him

0:21:40.280 --> 0:21:42.439
<v Speaker 3>a huge advantage over other teams in the league. They

0:21:42.440 --> 0:21:44.720
<v Speaker 3>were doing it more than anyone else was during that year.

0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:47.880
<v Speaker 5>Well, if you think about it, they were getting after him.

0:21:47.920 --> 0:21:51.040
<v Speaker 5>It was like illegal gathering. It's like you weren't supposed

0:21:51.080 --> 0:21:53.560
<v Speaker 5>to be out in public in a group, right, and

0:21:53.600 --> 0:21:56.439
<v Speaker 5>they were gonna I don't know, well the NFL were

0:21:56.480 --> 0:21:58.640
<v Speaker 5>going to find him, but the city was worried about.

0:21:58.720 --> 0:22:02.200
<v Speaker 3>But the point is just show up and oh yeah,

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 3>this guy's going to do better than someone who's already

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.760
<v Speaker 3>been there for uh some length of time. So and

0:22:09.080 --> 0:22:14.239
<v Speaker 3>you know, you think about it. All the Jets have

0:22:14.320 --> 0:22:16.040
<v Speaker 3>to do and for that matter, I think the Cowboys

0:22:16.040 --> 0:22:19.000
<v Speaker 3>can look at it the same way. Is when you

0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:23.360
<v Speaker 3>build a football team good enough to where you can

0:22:23.440 --> 0:22:27.879
<v Speaker 3>lose your starting quarterback and still come close to reaching

0:22:27.920 --> 0:22:30.399
<v Speaker 3>your ultimate goals. The San Francisco forty nine ers are

0:22:30.440 --> 0:22:33.240
<v Speaker 3>a great example of that last year. I mean when

0:22:33.280 --> 0:22:37.359
<v Speaker 3>they lose Jimmy g Well, they first they lost Trey

0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:41.280
<v Speaker 3>Lance to begin the season, and then two games in,

0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:44.439
<v Speaker 3>Garoppolo goes down and it's the last pick in the draft,

0:22:44.480 --> 0:22:48.679
<v Speaker 3>Brock Purty, mister irrelevant, who's able to win football games

0:22:48.680 --> 0:22:51.280
<v Speaker 3>for them? And then you look before the Cowboys played

0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:54.639
<v Speaker 3>on Sunday night, the most impressive team that took the

0:22:54.680 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 3>field on Sunday forty nine ers, and and what Brock

0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:02.560
<v Speaker 3>he was doing at quarterback. But it was as the

0:23:02.600 --> 0:23:06.840
<v Speaker 3>old as the old coach Barcels. I mean, if you're

0:23:06.840 --> 0:23:09.920
<v Speaker 3>a bus driver the game manager. I mean, but he

0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:13.879
<v Speaker 3>he looked very impressive, that's right.

0:23:14.440 --> 0:23:15.639
<v Speaker 2>But when you've built your.

0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:18.439
<v Speaker 3>Team well enough where you can run the football, you

0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:21.520
<v Speaker 3>can do you have a very strong defense. That's what

0:23:21.560 --> 0:23:26.000
<v Speaker 3>the Cowboys have done here as well. Rush So Robert

0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:28.960
<v Speaker 3>Sally was in San Francisco. All he has to do

0:23:29.400 --> 0:23:31.280
<v Speaker 3>is look at that blueprint of what they've done in

0:23:31.320 --> 0:23:35.880
<v Speaker 3>San Francisco and tell Zach Wilson that's what you need

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:38.320
<v Speaker 3>to be. You just need to be rock party last

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:39.440
<v Speaker 3>year and.

0:23:39.760 --> 0:23:42.600
<v Speaker 5>San Francisco did fine until they lost all of them.

0:23:42.520 --> 0:23:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Right exactly.

0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:48.480
<v Speaker 3>Any guy that just showed up, and that's what that's

0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:51.639
<v Speaker 3>what happened. When someone just shows up, you can't function

0:23:51.800 --> 0:23:54.879
<v Speaker 3>at all. But really, I mean, I think the Cowboys

0:23:54.880 --> 0:23:57.280
<v Speaker 3>can can learn from that too. Dak can learn from that.

0:23:57.520 --> 0:24:00.760
<v Speaker 3>You know that he's got a good enough team around

0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:05.720
<v Speaker 3>him that you don't have to make that extra throw.

0:24:05.840 --> 0:24:08.320
<v Speaker 7>I'm pretty sure that's what they talked about the entire

0:24:08.359 --> 0:24:11.760
<v Speaker 7>off season. That's what the change in the offensive plan was.

0:24:12.280 --> 0:24:15.720
<v Speaker 7>And you saw it in the game this past Sunday night.

0:24:16.359 --> 0:24:19.080
<v Speaker 7>He didn't try too much. You know, he saw whether

0:24:19.080 --> 0:24:21.119
<v Speaker 7>the game was headed. He saw that there was a

0:24:21.160 --> 0:24:23.240
<v Speaker 7>shutout going his defensive playing, well.

0:24:23.640 --> 0:24:26.000
<v Speaker 2>Don't force anything. Be like Eli.

0:24:26.040 --> 0:24:28.119
<v Speaker 7>Remember Eli used to just throw the ball in the

0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:31.199
<v Speaker 7>ground and it didn't look pretty at all. But what

0:24:31.280 --> 0:24:33.159
<v Speaker 7>did look pretty was the fact that he saved you

0:24:33.280 --> 0:24:35.639
<v Speaker 7>from it getting a sack. And in the next play

0:24:36.000 --> 0:24:37.560
<v Speaker 7>he throws a dime down the field.

0:24:38.040 --> 0:24:40.280
<v Speaker 5>That's what you want, and you just put it on

0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:43.879
<v Speaker 5>the shoulders of everybody else. Right, it's like, hey, you

0:24:44.040 --> 0:24:45.880
<v Speaker 5>got something to do with this. We can't sit here

0:24:45.920 --> 0:24:49.560
<v Speaker 5>and just you know, drop our heads and like, oh

0:24:49.600 --> 0:24:51.919
<v Speaker 5>woe's me. No, you got to go.

0:24:52.440 --> 0:24:54.920
<v Speaker 7>And whether we like to admit it or not, those

0:24:55.040 --> 0:24:57.760
<v Speaker 7>quarterbacks out there, the Brady's, the Rogers and all that,

0:24:58.240 --> 0:24:58.920
<v Speaker 7>they've had help.

0:24:59.680 --> 0:25:02.320
<v Speaker 2>They've had very good help. Yeah, they didn't do it

0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:03.040
<v Speaker 2>by themselves.

0:25:03.040 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 7>When it's all said and done, you want to say

0:25:05.240 --> 0:25:08.280
<v Speaker 7>this quarterback did this, or this quarterback did that. But

0:25:08.320 --> 0:25:10.480
<v Speaker 7>the truth is, if you look at the entirety of

0:25:10.520 --> 0:25:12.880
<v Speaker 7>the film, it was done by the entire team.

0:25:12.920 --> 0:25:14.560
<v Speaker 5>And not to say this is going to happen all

0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:20.200
<v Speaker 5>season long, but Kansas City the first game, right, everybody, well, quarterback,

0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:22.960
<v Speaker 5>you know we got guys missing. Put it on your back.

0:25:23.080 --> 0:25:27.040
<v Speaker 3>Is Patrick one of the greatest examples of a recent,

0:25:27.520 --> 0:25:30.240
<v Speaker 3>fairly recent Super Bowl winning team that had one of

0:25:30.240 --> 0:25:31.919
<v Speaker 3>the greatest quarterbacks.

0:25:31.400 --> 0:25:32.160
<v Speaker 5>Of all time.

0:25:32.960 --> 0:25:36.560
<v Speaker 3>And did he put pedestrian numbers up? Not even pedestrian

0:25:36.640 --> 0:25:40.080
<v Speaker 3>numbers up in some games. It was Peyton Manning with

0:25:40.119 --> 0:25:43.840
<v Speaker 3>the Broncos. I mean his his stats from that season

0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:44.800
<v Speaker 3>were horrendous.

0:25:45.480 --> 0:25:49.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, then you had Von Miller, right, I keep to leave.

0:25:50.280 --> 0:25:53.560
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, the hell of a defensive team on the other side,

0:25:53.680 --> 0:25:56.520
<v Speaker 7>and why not let them, know, ride their backs every

0:25:56.520 --> 0:25:56.880
<v Speaker 7>once in a.

0:25:56.800 --> 0:25:59.560
<v Speaker 5>Whe win a Super Bowl without your starting quarterback.

0:25:59.720 --> 0:26:02.840
<v Speaker 7>Oh, we won without the starting quarterback and running back.

0:26:03.400 --> 0:26:06.240
<v Speaker 7>We lost Rodney Hampton early in the season and that's

0:26:06.240 --> 0:26:07.440
<v Speaker 7>why OJ forgot about.

0:26:07.440 --> 0:26:08.639
<v Speaker 5>That's why O. J.

0:26:08.840 --> 0:26:13.400
<v Speaker 7>Anderson ended up getting the MVP because we had nobody else.

0:26:13.480 --> 0:26:17.439
<v Speaker 5>And Phil Simms was on the way.

0:26:18.080 --> 0:26:21.760
<v Speaker 7>He had the Achilles went down against Buffalo in New

0:26:21.840 --> 0:26:25.439
<v Speaker 7>Jersey and after that we struggled three and three, but

0:26:25.520 --> 0:26:27.600
<v Speaker 7>we knew where we were going that that was a

0:26:27.600 --> 0:26:28.000
<v Speaker 7>good deal.

0:26:28.080 --> 0:26:32.840
<v Speaker 3>Seems like there's another team about that. Twenty sixteen, there

0:26:32.920 --> 0:26:36.520
<v Speaker 3>was a yeah quarterback that went down and started his

0:26:36.560 --> 0:26:40.720
<v Speaker 3>broadcasting career, and Dak Prescott did what he did that actually.

0:26:40.760 --> 0:26:45.680
<v Speaker 5>Parcells pointed out that on the same day in ninety nine,

0:26:46.800 --> 0:26:53.640
<v Speaker 5>Finny Testaversity Vista Verdi tore his achilles the same day,

0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:59.720
<v Speaker 5>nine to eleven in Giant Stadium, and he went to

0:27:00.080 --> 0:27:02.560
<v Speaker 5>forgot the next quarterback he went to, and then he

0:27:02.600 --> 0:27:04.000
<v Speaker 5>went to Luke Lucas.

0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Was that the.

0:27:06.880 --> 0:27:09.680
<v Speaker 5>Not Robert Luke? I forgot his first name? Anyway, they

0:27:09.720 --> 0:27:13.920
<v Speaker 5>finished eight to eight, almost made the playoffs. So his

0:27:13.960 --> 0:27:16.600
<v Speaker 5>point was, no one wants to hear this.

0:27:17.520 --> 0:27:20.440
<v Speaker 7>No one's feeling sorry for you, right, they have no time,

0:27:20.480 --> 0:27:22.880
<v Speaker 7>so whatever the locker room is feeling, and they should.

0:27:23.040 --> 0:27:25.880
<v Speaker 7>If I'm the Jets, I'm feeling pretty good. I'm thinking

0:27:25.880 --> 0:27:28.760
<v Speaker 7>I can win with Zach Wilson. My defense is ready

0:27:28.760 --> 0:27:31.280
<v Speaker 7>to go. Let's go defense on defense. That's what they're

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 7>looking at, right, And they're gonna look at the running game.

0:27:34.119 --> 0:27:36.480
<v Speaker 7>We're gonna they're gonna see what they did well against

0:27:36.480 --> 0:27:40.000
<v Speaker 7>a very good Buffalo squad. So, yeah, this is gonna

0:27:40.000 --> 0:27:41.840
<v Speaker 7>be a tough game. It's gonna be This is not

0:27:41.880 --> 0:27:45.639
<v Speaker 7>gonna be one of those forty forty Burger ain't coming up.

0:27:46.040 --> 0:27:46.919
<v Speaker 7>They needed another.

0:27:47.359 --> 0:27:50.320
<v Speaker 5>They needed another episode of Hard Knocks, because here's the

0:27:50.359 --> 0:27:51.880
<v Speaker 5>hard knocks right now.

0:27:52.119 --> 0:27:57.520
<v Speaker 2>This is interesting right now? Yeah, And I mean.

0:28:00.080 --> 0:28:02.080
<v Speaker 3>They proved it against one of the best teams in

0:28:02.080 --> 0:28:05.920
<v Speaker 3>the league on Monday night, and there's no reason why

0:28:06.000 --> 0:28:09.200
<v Speaker 3>they can't come in here and put up the same thing.

0:28:09.960 --> 0:28:13.600
<v Speaker 3>Here's the deal. They have put a what they believe

0:28:14.160 --> 0:28:18.240
<v Speaker 3>is a Super Bowl contending team together around Aaron Rodgers's

0:28:18.720 --> 0:28:24.040
<v Speaker 3>That's what Zach Wilson has around him this year that

0:28:24.119 --> 0:28:26.560
<v Speaker 3>he didn't have last year. Is they have actually built

0:28:26.560 --> 0:28:30.480
<v Speaker 3>this team to win now that they they they're farther

0:28:30.560 --> 0:28:33.959
<v Speaker 3>along in their development by signing Dalvin Cook and they

0:28:34.000 --> 0:28:36.239
<v Speaker 3>got brace Hall back, they got a run game that

0:28:36.280 --> 0:28:37.880
<v Speaker 3>they can rely on.

0:28:38.080 --> 0:28:40.360
<v Speaker 5>They ran for one hundred and seventy two yards. Yes,

0:28:40.440 --> 0:28:42.800
<v Speaker 5>one hundred and seventy two. Now, I know eighty three

0:28:43.040 --> 0:28:44.160
<v Speaker 5>was one run, but.

0:28:44.680 --> 0:28:46.440
<v Speaker 2>Even if you take that out, you're looking at a

0:28:46.560 --> 0:28:47.560
<v Speaker 2>very solid running again.

0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:49.120
<v Speaker 5>When he took off from where he did and you

0:28:49.160 --> 0:28:51.880
<v Speaker 5>saw him running, did you think of Dorset going ninety nine?

0:28:51.920 --> 0:28:55.760
<v Speaker 5>Because I did. Oh my god, this is the second coming.

0:28:56.680 --> 0:28:59.360
<v Speaker 3>All right, I've got a question I want to throw

0:28:59.400 --> 0:29:02.640
<v Speaker 3>out for you too and give them we come back

0:29:02.840 --> 0:29:05.520
<v Speaker 3>about it time to think about it. I was asked

0:29:05.520 --> 0:29:11.000
<v Speaker 3>the question today, and that is who is the second

0:29:11.160 --> 0:29:16.680
<v Speaker 3>best player on this Dallas defense? Oh, second best player

0:29:16.720 --> 0:29:21.200
<v Speaker 3>on this Dallas defense? Answer when we come back here

0:29:21.240 --> 0:29:22.080

0:31:54.480 --> 0:31:58.520
<v Speaker 3>All Right, you mentioned earlier about the Testaveriti Achilles injury

0:31:58.600 --> 0:32:01.440
<v Speaker 3>and the season opener in nineteen ninety nine, and so

0:32:01.520 --> 0:32:04.800
<v Speaker 3>I was just pulled up a story on that season

0:32:04.840 --> 0:32:09.880
<v Speaker 3>for the Jets, and they actually they initial parcels initially

0:32:09.920 --> 0:32:13.400
<v Speaker 3>went with Rick Myer, that's right, to replace Testa Verdie.

0:32:13.480 --> 0:32:14.320
<v Speaker 5>I couldn't remember.

0:32:14.440 --> 0:32:17.960
<v Speaker 3>And then it was Ray Lucas. Okay, And in December,

0:32:18.480 --> 0:32:23.840
<v Speaker 3>December of that year, the Jets came in here to

0:32:23.960 --> 0:32:28.560
<v Speaker 3>Texas Stadium and Ray Lucas led a fourth quarter comeback

0:32:28.600 --> 0:32:31.000
<v Speaker 3>to beat the Cowboys twenty two to twenty one.

0:32:31.120 --> 0:32:33.280
<v Speaker 5>As they were on their way to an eight and eighth.

0:32:33.320 --> 0:32:36.080
<v Speaker 3>That's right, all right, and so and with the wind

0:32:36.200 --> 0:32:38.800
<v Speaker 3>Lucas had a four and three record as the Jets

0:32:38.840 --> 0:32:43.480
<v Speaker 3>starting quarterback, third highest passer rating in the AFC, and

0:32:44.160 --> 0:32:48.600
<v Speaker 3>but this was what was funny, Parcels In the postgame interview. Postgame,

0:32:48.640 --> 0:32:51.680
<v Speaker 3>Prescotvery says, you guys had him out of here after

0:32:51.720 --> 0:32:54.840
<v Speaker 3>the Green Bay gay talking about Lucas. Now you're giving

0:32:54.920 --> 0:33:02.000
<v Speaker 3>him the job. Parcells said, uh, as the reason he

0:33:02.040 --> 0:33:05.200
<v Speaker 3>went with Meyer instead of Lucas after testa Verdie went down.

0:33:05.240 --> 0:33:08.520
<v Speaker 3>I had a guy with fifty starts. I didn't know

0:33:08.600 --> 0:33:11.400
<v Speaker 3>about Lucas back then. Now he knows about it, so

0:33:11.600 --> 0:33:18.080
<v Speaker 3>that anyway, Yeah, all right, Dallas defense, who is the

0:33:18.120 --> 0:33:23.160
<v Speaker 3>second best player on this Cowboys deepen, there's something easy

0:33:23.240 --> 0:33:28.840
<v Speaker 3>for a cornerback? Yeah, like Everson. The salaries say it too,

0:33:29.400 --> 0:33:30.680
<v Speaker 3>Yes for the recent.

0:33:30.480 --> 0:33:33.320
<v Speaker 7>Right, yeah, yeah, I don't know why he's taking so long. Well,

0:33:33.360 --> 0:33:37.680
<v Speaker 7>go ahead, it's Diggs. Come on, it's Digs.

0:33:37.720 --> 0:33:38.440
<v Speaker 2>You have you know.

0:33:38.480 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 7>Of course, you got DeMarcus Lawrence, who is definitely worthy.

0:33:43.000 --> 0:33:45.120
<v Speaker 7>You can say what you want make him, especially when

0:33:45.160 --> 0:33:47.680
<v Speaker 7>you talked about last year, one of the most important

0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:51.360
<v Speaker 7>players on the Cowboys defense. But with Michael Parsons and

0:33:51.400 --> 0:33:55.280
<v Speaker 7>his superlatives, you want to put him up there and

0:33:55.560 --> 0:33:57.720
<v Speaker 7>Diggs has his own.

0:33:57.560 --> 0:33:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Superlatives that you can deal with.

0:33:59.520 --> 0:34:03.040
<v Speaker 7>And we talked in numbers eleven interceptions last year, second

0:34:03.120 --> 0:34:03.400
<v Speaker 7>year in the.

0:34:03.440 --> 0:34:05.280
<v Speaker 2>League, two years ago, two years ago.

0:34:06.040 --> 0:34:10.040
<v Speaker 7>Then he's got you know, the big plays that he

0:34:10.120 --> 0:34:12.520
<v Speaker 7>made against the Jetsah, he's starting.

0:34:12.120 --> 0:34:14.160
<v Speaker 3>Already wrong against the Giants the other.

0:34:14.120 --> 0:34:16.839
<v Speaker 2>Night, Giants starting off strong this year.

0:34:18.360 --> 0:34:19.719
<v Speaker 3>It didn't have to be interceptions.

0:34:19.840 --> 0:34:20.360
<v Speaker 2>It does not.

0:34:20.600 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 7>I mean he seems to be all over the field

0:34:22.680 --> 0:34:25.680
<v Speaker 7>and the way he made the place he salvaged them.

0:34:25.960 --> 0:34:28.640
<v Speaker 7>You know, when the ball was caught by the guy

0:34:28.680 --> 0:34:30.880
<v Speaker 7>in the quick slant, I mean he followed him the

0:34:30.880 --> 0:34:31.920
<v Speaker 7>whole way, tracked him down.

0:34:32.040 --> 0:34:35.200
<v Speaker 5>It was a twenty four yard reception, and he stayed

0:34:35.239 --> 0:34:37.960
<v Speaker 5>on top stage with him and stayed with it, knocked

0:34:38.000 --> 0:34:38.279
<v Speaker 5>it out.

0:34:38.400 --> 0:34:40.640
<v Speaker 7>It wasn't by accident that that ball came out. That

0:34:40.800 --> 0:34:42.080
<v Speaker 7>was clearly by design.

0:34:42.320 --> 0:34:44.960
<v Speaker 3>Cowboys announced at the beginning of training camp with the

0:34:44.960 --> 0:34:47.120
<v Speaker 3>second best player on this defense with.

0:34:47.160 --> 0:34:52.399
<v Speaker 5>A salary year, how much was it eighty four?

0:34:53.920 --> 0:34:57.880
<v Speaker 3>I haven't written down as a five year, ninety seven

0:34:57.920 --> 0:34:59.239
<v Speaker 3>million dollars extension.

0:34:59.440 --> 0:35:04.200
<v Speaker 7>I tried to even think about it.

0:35:03.400 --> 0:35:09.640
<v Speaker 3>But think about some other players that think about Stefan

0:35:09.680 --> 0:35:12.719
<v Speaker 3>Gilmore we just we've just seen him in one game, right.

0:35:13.200 --> 0:35:16.480
<v Speaker 7>He played very He played first of all, great interception.

0:35:16.560 --> 0:35:20.120
<v Speaker 7>We didn't talk about that yesterday, trying to stop it

0:35:20.160 --> 0:35:21.160
<v Speaker 7>from hitting the ground.

0:35:21.400 --> 0:35:24.279
<v Speaker 5>They tried so hard to show it hit the ground right.

0:35:24.320 --> 0:35:26.239
<v Speaker 2>Well, it was a veteran move by him.

0:35:26.440 --> 0:35:28.920
<v Speaker 3>He knew that camera was right there, so he turned

0:35:28.920 --> 0:35:35.080
<v Speaker 3>his back to camera able to overturn the call on

0:35:35.200 --> 0:35:35.720
<v Speaker 3>the field.

0:35:37.200 --> 0:35:40.160
<v Speaker 2>But now that, yeah, and not just that he had

0:35:40.200 --> 0:35:41.959
<v Speaker 2>a break up, you know that.

0:35:42.040 --> 0:35:48.280
<v Speaker 3>Was and his just the presence that he brings the veteran,

0:35:48.600 --> 0:35:54.719
<v Speaker 3>the veteran yeah, leadership, and it's just a he's so calm. Yeah,

0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:57.319
<v Speaker 3>and it's a calming presence for the entire team.

0:35:57.640 --> 0:35:59.520
<v Speaker 2>He seems to have a presence over digs.

0:36:00.239 --> 0:36:03.279
<v Speaker 7>It seems like to have a apport to where like, okay,

0:36:03.320 --> 0:36:04.160
<v Speaker 7>I'm following your lead.

0:36:05.200 --> 0:36:08.279
<v Speaker 3>I like that there's a quiet confidence that everybody on

0:36:08.360 --> 0:36:10.600
<v Speaker 3>the team can have knowing that, Okay, we got this

0:36:10.600 --> 0:36:11.399
<v Speaker 3>guy on our side.

0:36:11.440 --> 0:36:11.600
<v Speaker 2>Now.

0:36:12.040 --> 0:36:14.080
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's there's there's some guys they get off

0:36:14.120 --> 0:36:18.520
<v Speaker 3>the bus and they're intimidating because of their size or whatever,

0:36:18.640 --> 0:36:22.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, or you know Micah and the way he plays,

0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:23.120
<v Speaker 3>But there and there's other.

0:36:23.360 --> 0:36:27.040
<v Speaker 2>There's poise in presence. There's poise in his presence.

0:36:28.840 --> 0:36:28.920
<v Speaker 9>Uh.

0:36:29.239 --> 0:36:32.919
<v Speaker 5>And if there was another candidate, I would have gone

0:36:32.960 --> 0:36:39.319
<v Speaker 5>with DeMarcus Lawrence. I think he's uh sort of boy.

0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:45.560
<v Speaker 5>What he does up front, so many different things heralded. Yeah,

0:36:45.600 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 5>and then I may have one on That's right.

0:36:50.520 --> 0:36:53.200
<v Speaker 3>I think I'm thinking of the same person you're thinking of.

0:36:53.719 --> 0:36:56.880
<v Speaker 3>Let's give it, let's give it half a season, another

0:36:56.920 --> 0:36:58.399
<v Speaker 3>full seasons.

0:37:00.040 --> 0:37:01.959
<v Speaker 2>Oh see, that's what.

0:37:01.880 --> 0:37:03.480
<v Speaker 3>I said to the guy asked me. I said, there's

0:37:03.480 --> 0:37:06.800
<v Speaker 3>an under the radar guy who is now getting a

0:37:06.800 --> 0:37:08.920
<v Speaker 3>little over the radarcers. He had two sacks in a

0:37:08.920 --> 0:37:13.680
<v Speaker 3>month in a Sunday night game. But and he's he's

0:37:13.680 --> 0:37:15.520
<v Speaker 3>been like that ever since he came to the league.

0:37:15.520 --> 0:37:16.600
<v Speaker 2>How was his camp?

0:37:16.680 --> 0:37:18.799
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I was going to say he was the

0:37:18.840 --> 0:37:22.000
<v Speaker 5>best defensive tackle they had during training camp.

0:37:22.320 --> 0:37:25.920
<v Speaker 2>You saw it, you can see it last year. I

0:37:26.040 --> 0:37:27.480
<v Speaker 2>was hoping that he continued.

0:37:27.840 --> 0:37:30.640
<v Speaker 5>And so when they see his rookie year too, well

0:37:30.680 --> 0:37:33.960
<v Speaker 5>who's the three technique? Well it's osa you can figure

0:37:34.000 --> 0:37:38.200
<v Speaker 5>out who's playing next to him, right, because everybody it

0:37:38.280 --> 0:37:42.759
<v Speaker 5>was like all this attention on Mazi and you know

0:37:42.840 --> 0:37:45.040
<v Speaker 5>he was the twenty seventh pick in the draft. You know,

0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:47.439
<v Speaker 5>that's getting close to the second round right the way.

0:37:48.760 --> 0:37:53.359
<v Speaker 5>But that three technique guy can make a difference, and boy,

0:37:53.360 --> 0:37:56.560
<v Speaker 5>he sure did, and and and those guys. A lot

0:37:56.560 --> 0:37:59.400
<v Speaker 5>of times when they go to their change up defense,

0:38:00.120 --> 0:38:03.120
<v Speaker 5>he's not on the field. You know, they're using linebackers

0:38:03.120 --> 0:38:07.440
<v Speaker 5>to line up as the as the defensive tackle. I

0:38:07.520 --> 0:38:09.440
<v Speaker 5>had his snap count here.

0:38:09.920 --> 0:38:12.200
<v Speaker 3>He had o dig azua.

0:38:12.760 --> 0:38:17.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, he had twenty. He only had twenty seven snaps

0:38:17.600 --> 0:38:22.600
<v Speaker 5>thirty and got two sacks and got two sacks, So

0:38:23.160 --> 0:38:27.080
<v Speaker 5>that's pretty good production per play, right, and he also

0:38:27.239 --> 0:38:31.919
<v Speaker 5>had four tackles. He had two tackles for losses, three

0:38:32.040 --> 0:38:38.799
<v Speaker 5>quarterback hits. That's pretty good play production there, and maybe

0:38:38.880 --> 0:38:41.160
<v Speaker 5>that says something for being fresh too.

0:38:42.840 --> 0:38:45.920
<v Speaker 3>You know, it was a third round draft pick, seventy

0:38:45.920 --> 0:38:49.799
<v Speaker 3>fifth overall, and he really showed it even in his

0:38:49.920 --> 0:38:52.959
<v Speaker 3>rookie season. Right, and he had four sacks last year.

0:38:53.880 --> 0:38:54.040
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:38:54.080 --> 0:38:57.040
<v Speaker 3>The thing that's so impressive about him, he is get off.

0:38:57.800 --> 0:39:00.719
<v Speaker 3>He's just the way he plays. But he's got those

0:39:00.840 --> 0:39:04.759
<v Speaker 3>long arms. He's only he's only six to one and

0:39:04.840 --> 0:39:07.440
<v Speaker 3>a half, but he's got thirty four inch arms with

0:39:07.520 --> 0:39:11.359
<v Speaker 3>an eighty four inch wingspan and he uses it to

0:39:11.400 --> 0:39:14.640
<v Speaker 3>his benefit. But he's strong even with those long arms.

0:39:14.640 --> 0:39:17.120
<v Speaker 3>He had twenty five inch reps of two hundred and

0:39:17.160 --> 0:39:20.799
<v Speaker 3>fifty pounds at the combine, which shows how strong he

0:39:20.920 --> 0:39:21.319
<v Speaker 3>is well.

0:39:21.920 --> 0:39:24.400
<v Speaker 7>And it's something to be said for that low center

0:39:24.400 --> 0:39:27.160
<v Speaker 7>of graphic he has that as well. Yeah, you know,

0:39:27.920 --> 0:39:30.759
<v Speaker 7>it's hard to knock a guy like that over. You know,

0:39:30.800 --> 0:39:34.000
<v Speaker 7>he's not tall and lean. I mean, he's already almost

0:39:34.000 --> 0:39:36.640
<v Speaker 7>like a fireplub, you know what I mean. He's you know,

0:39:36.719 --> 0:39:39.040
<v Speaker 7>fire hydrant. He's ready to go and you're not going

0:39:39.080 --> 0:39:42.120
<v Speaker 7>to knock him over. He's going to be stable no

0:39:42.120 --> 0:39:43.280
<v Speaker 7>matter where you hit him.

0:39:43.560 --> 0:39:45.440
<v Speaker 3>You know, as much talk as there is in the

0:39:45.560 --> 0:39:49.640
<v Speaker 3>NFC East about the defensive tackles in this division and

0:39:49.680 --> 0:39:53.400
<v Speaker 3>what the Eagles have even without Javon Hargraver's now with

0:39:53.440 --> 0:39:55.880
<v Speaker 3>the forty nine ers, but Fletcher Cox for over a

0:39:55.920 --> 0:39:58.600
<v Speaker 3>decade now, and the guys they've gotten out of Georgia,

0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:01.799
<v Speaker 3>including Jalen Carter who impressed in his first game, but

0:40:02.239 --> 0:40:06.480
<v Speaker 3>and then the Alabama guys that Washington has on their front,

0:40:07.200 --> 0:40:10.600
<v Speaker 3>and then the Clemson guy, the exter Lawrence that well,

0:40:10.640 --> 0:40:14.359
<v Speaker 3>here's a UCLA guy, in Osa. Who is holding his

0:40:14.400 --> 0:40:18.759
<v Speaker 3>own when you compare him to the other top notch

0:40:18.840 --> 0:40:22.840
<v Speaker 3>Pro Bowl type defensive tackles in this division. And I.

0:40:24.880 --> 0:40:29.960
<v Speaker 5>See a few more games, But to me, Dimone Clark

0:40:30.320 --> 0:40:34.000
<v Speaker 5>is going to be a baller. He only got to

0:40:34.040 --> 0:40:36.680
<v Speaker 5>start five games last year, and the majority of the

0:40:36.719 --> 0:40:41.320
<v Speaker 5>games he played were special teams. But once he got

0:40:41.360 --> 0:40:46.719
<v Speaker 5>back in training camp, so in this game, very silently,

0:40:46.760 --> 0:40:50.880
<v Speaker 5>he had five tackles and I think he can be

0:40:50.920 --> 0:40:52.880
<v Speaker 5>a force in the middle. Somebody was talking about the

0:40:52.920 --> 0:40:56.120
<v Speaker 5>Cowboys problems at linebacker, and I'm going, hey, don't go

0:40:56.239 --> 0:40:58.080
<v Speaker 5>to sleep on Leyton Vanderish.

0:40:58.120 --> 0:41:00.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh, by the way, and where.

0:41:00.360 --> 0:41:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Would have Demone Clark been drafted if he didn't have

0:41:02.760 --> 0:41:04.320
<v Speaker 3>the he's a hurt.

0:41:04.360 --> 0:41:07.400
<v Speaker 5>He's no lower than a second round. He might have

0:41:07.480 --> 0:41:09.359
<v Speaker 5>been a first round pick out of LSUE and he.

0:41:09.320 --> 0:41:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Fell to the fifth round because of the medical.

0:41:11.560 --> 0:41:15.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. Absolutely, this guy can play. And he's big, he's strong,

0:41:15.800 --> 0:41:18.279
<v Speaker 5>and he's fast. I don't know what else you need

0:41:18.320 --> 0:41:21.720
<v Speaker 5>in a linebacker. And he seems to be really really sharp,

0:41:22.320 --> 0:41:26.120
<v Speaker 5>so watch out for him. But again, the way they

0:41:26.160 --> 0:41:31.360
<v Speaker 5>play it, those guys don't What did he get? He

0:41:31.400 --> 0:41:34.280
<v Speaker 5>had forty six snaps, So that was sixty six percent

0:41:34.400 --> 0:41:36.759
<v Speaker 5>and some of that's screwed because those guys came off

0:41:36.760 --> 0:41:37.160
<v Speaker 5>the field.

0:41:37.400 --> 0:41:37.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:41:37.960 --> 0:41:41.680
<v Speaker 7>When playing this, well, everybody can't be on the tackle, right,

0:41:42.040 --> 0:41:43.400
<v Speaker 7>You can't half a tackle.

0:41:43.960 --> 0:41:46.120
<v Speaker 3>Like oh said he had four sacks last year. Well,

0:41:46.160 --> 0:41:49.439
<v Speaker 3>if Mikah gets there before him, I mean you can't get.

0:41:49.480 --> 0:41:51.839
<v Speaker 2>And in this game, everybody was just salivating to get

0:41:51.840 --> 0:41:52.560
<v Speaker 2>to the quarterback.

0:41:52.640 --> 0:41:56.480
<v Speaker 3>What's interesting about the question that I asked is because

0:41:56.520 --> 0:41:58.640
<v Speaker 3>I was asked it this morning by a guy who

0:41:58.719 --> 0:42:03.200
<v Speaker 3>lives in Philadelphia, and I think and he picked the

0:42:03.200 --> 0:42:05.239
<v Speaker 3>Eagles to win the division. I picked the Cowboys to

0:42:05.280 --> 0:42:09.840
<v Speaker 3>win the division. And I asked him before I answered

0:42:09.880 --> 0:42:12.480
<v Speaker 3>the question, I asked him, so, who do you think

0:42:12.600 --> 0:42:15.200
<v Speaker 3>is this second best player on this Dallas defense? And

0:42:15.239 --> 0:42:17.560
<v Speaker 3>he mentioned first mentioned So this is sort of a

0:42:17.640 --> 0:42:22.480
<v Speaker 3>national perspective. He first mentioned Vanderish and then he mentioned

0:42:22.520 --> 0:42:25.359
<v Speaker 3>Dorin's Armstrong. We didn't even mention those guys, you know,

0:42:25.480 --> 0:42:29.520
<v Speaker 3>but from a national perspective, they're watching that game and

0:42:29.600 --> 0:42:33.760
<v Speaker 3>they're seeing guys because we know who all the players

0:42:33.760 --> 0:42:37.040
<v Speaker 3>are nationally. And this is a guy who follows the NFL,

0:42:37.120 --> 0:42:40.319
<v Speaker 3>but he doesn't see a certain number and say, oh,

0:42:40.400 --> 0:42:45.760
<v Speaker 3>that's vander ash right. You know, he's watching his team Philadelphia. Okay,

0:42:46.000 --> 0:42:48.680
<v Speaker 3>he's just seeing all these guys flying around making tackles

0:42:48.719 --> 0:42:53.240
<v Speaker 3>and he's going, Wow, they got a bunch of guys

0:42:53.239 --> 0:42:56.640
<v Speaker 3>on that defense. Who's the second best guy?

0:42:56.880 --> 0:42:58.239
<v Speaker 2>If they keep seeing fifty.

0:42:58.000 --> 0:43:01.080
<v Speaker 3>Five and they're seeing fourteen, who are this fourteen right

0:43:01.120 --> 0:43:02.959
<v Speaker 3>from Marki's bell? See.

0:43:03.040 --> 0:43:06.400
<v Speaker 5>And that's why when people asked me about what the

0:43:06.440 --> 0:43:09.680
<v Speaker 5>defense did and how shocking it was, I said, it

0:43:09.719 --> 0:43:13.440
<v Speaker 5>wasn't shocking to us that watched practice for a month.

0:43:13.880 --> 0:43:17.280
<v Speaker 5>We saw this. Nobody else saw it. Evidently the Giants

0:43:17.320 --> 0:43:20.399
<v Speaker 5>didn't see it either, right, they saw it. They got

0:43:20.440 --> 0:43:24.279
<v Speaker 5>di answered right, But we saw this brewing in Oxnard

0:43:24.320 --> 0:43:28.680
<v Speaker 5>that they ruined so many practices because of the pressure

0:43:28.719 --> 0:43:31.239
<v Speaker 5>they can put. I think McCarthy said they ended up

0:43:31.440 --> 0:43:36.440
<v Speaker 5>counting seventy five percent of the defensive snaps were pressures

0:43:36.840 --> 0:43:37.680
<v Speaker 5>on the quarterback.

0:43:38.680 --> 0:43:40.680
<v Speaker 3>You know what I told the guy in Philly, I said,

0:43:40.800 --> 0:43:44.359
<v Speaker 3>there were games last year that the guy who did

0:43:44.400 --> 0:43:46.839
<v Speaker 3>not even play in that game on Sunday night might

0:43:46.880 --> 0:43:49.080
<v Speaker 3>have been the second best defensive player on the field,

0:43:49.080 --> 0:43:49.319
<v Speaker 3>and that.

0:43:49.280 --> 0:43:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Was Donovan Wilson.

0:43:50.880 --> 0:43:55.600
<v Speaker 3>I mean there were some games tackler. Yeah, had five

0:43:55.719 --> 0:44:00.319
<v Speaker 3>sacks last year, which was a club tying rock for

0:44:00.360 --> 0:44:00.920
<v Speaker 3>a safety.

0:44:01.080 --> 0:44:04.680
<v Speaker 2>And we haven't even mentioned Bill Bates. Bill Bates.

0:44:04.960 --> 0:44:05.880
<v Speaker 5>Bill Bates had.

0:44:05.840 --> 0:44:09.799
<v Speaker 3>Five one year, and we haven't even mentioned the other

0:44:09.840 --> 0:44:11.719
<v Speaker 3>two safetys. By the way, one of them was a

0:44:11.719 --> 0:44:13.680
<v Speaker 3>first round draft pick and the other one was a

0:44:13.719 --> 0:44:16.759
<v Speaker 3>free agent steal Lee Cooker and jay Ron Kirk.

0:44:16.880 --> 0:44:19.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, they can't even make it to that level. The

0:44:19.160 --> 0:44:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Giants couldn't.

0:44:19.840 --> 0:44:21.560
<v Speaker 3>Make it to that level.

0:44:21.760 --> 0:44:23.359
<v Speaker 7>It's like when I was playing with the Giants one

0:44:23.400 --> 0:44:26.200
<v Speaker 7>game and we're playing against Barry Sanders. He had like

0:44:26.320 --> 0:44:28.640
<v Speaker 7>toasted them for like over one hundred plus yards the

0:44:28.719 --> 0:44:31.000
<v Speaker 7>year before, and we were looking at the video. Man,

0:44:31.000 --> 0:44:34.560
<v Speaker 7>the guy's been there salivating. LT's going crazy. I got

0:44:34.560 --> 0:44:37.560
<v Speaker 7>we're getting into the game. I'm back there playing safety.

0:44:37.880 --> 0:44:40.279
<v Speaker 7>I got nothing to do. I got nothing to do.

0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:41.560
<v Speaker 7>I mean, that's just.

0:44:41.520 --> 0:44:43.400
<v Speaker 5>How strong they were paying to stop them up.

0:44:43.560 --> 0:44:46.600
<v Speaker 7>They stopped them up front the entire time. Belichick calls

0:44:46.600 --> 0:44:49.000
<v Speaker 7>me into the office and goes, hey, you gotta do more.

0:44:48.960 --> 0:44:49.399
<v Speaker 2>Do more.

0:44:49.560 --> 0:44:53.680
<v Speaker 7>What you gotta got a squad here, I've never seen

0:44:53.680 --> 0:44:56.719
<v Speaker 7>anything like this much. Let's play behind it. That's what

0:44:56.760 --> 0:44:59.520
<v Speaker 7>our safety is am looking at the front seven is

0:44:59.560 --> 0:45:03.759
<v Speaker 7>handling everything. By the way, no one escapes through that.

0:45:03.880 --> 0:45:04.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh, by the way.

0:45:04.640 --> 0:45:07.040
<v Speaker 3>The Cowboys also have a backup edge rusher who is

0:45:07.080 --> 0:45:09.000
<v Speaker 3>the third pick in the draft once upon a time

0:45:09.040 --> 0:45:11.480
<v Speaker 3>in Dante Fowler, that's right.

0:45:11.400 --> 0:45:12.800
<v Speaker 2>And who's playing very well.

0:45:13.120 --> 0:45:17.399
<v Speaker 5>And he's doing playing his role right. He goes, I'm

0:45:17.440 --> 0:45:20.000
<v Speaker 5>kind of a designated pass rusher. I go in and

0:45:20.040 --> 0:45:21.720
<v Speaker 5>give DeMarcus Lawrence.

0:45:21.360 --> 0:45:23.360
<v Speaker 2>A break and he does it well.

0:45:23.800 --> 0:45:27.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, because I saw people when they were given injury

0:45:27.000 --> 0:45:29.680
<v Speaker 5>reports about all the starters the Cowboys had out, and

0:45:29.680 --> 0:45:33.880
<v Speaker 5>it's like, Okay, we know, it's not shocked that Donovan

0:45:33.920 --> 0:45:36.200
<v Speaker 5>Wilson wasn't going to play in the game. He's probably

0:45:36.280 --> 0:45:38.600
<v Speaker 5>not even playing this week. I would imagine he's got

0:45:38.640 --> 0:45:40.799
<v Speaker 5>to go through a ramp up, right, And then they

0:45:40.800 --> 0:45:44.719
<v Speaker 5>were counting, uh, Jordan Lewis as a starter and it's like, no,

0:45:45.160 --> 0:45:48.160
<v Speaker 5>he's not a starter. When he gets back, it's going

0:45:48.200 --> 0:45:51.480
<v Speaker 5>to be an interesting dilemma. They have to is he

0:45:51.600 --> 0:45:55.640
<v Speaker 5>active because Doran Bland's the guy. Now, don't you think.

0:45:55.520 --> 0:45:57.399
<v Speaker 2>I agree with that? I mean have to last year

0:45:58.080 --> 0:45:58.440
<v Speaker 2>and the.

0:45:58.400 --> 0:46:02.720
<v Speaker 5>First game on and so somebody's gonna if he's active,

0:46:02.800 --> 0:46:06.799
<v Speaker 5>somebody's got to sit. And I don't know, after you

0:46:06.880 --> 0:46:08.480
<v Speaker 5>have a performance like that, who are you going to

0:46:08.560 --> 0:46:11.200
<v Speaker 5>tell that was on that defense. I don't think you're

0:46:11.239 --> 0:46:12.440
<v Speaker 5>gonna make the You.

0:46:12.400 --> 0:46:14.920
<v Speaker 3>Know what, I liked about Deron Blaine as much as anything. Yeah,

0:46:14.960 --> 0:46:17.759
<v Speaker 3>he had to pick six Okay, right place, right time,

0:46:17.880 --> 0:46:20.480
<v Speaker 3>made the play whatever. I like the way he was

0:46:20.520 --> 0:46:22.320
<v Speaker 3>playing at the end of the game. He was coming

0:46:22.400 --> 0:46:24.600
<v Speaker 3>up and making tackle, playing right physical.

0:46:25.440 --> 0:46:26.959
<v Speaker 5>Not bad for a fifth round pick.

0:46:27.560 --> 0:46:30.759
<v Speaker 7>So I just look at last year and looking at

0:46:30.840 --> 0:46:33.480
<v Speaker 7>last year, I just think that he proved himself beyond

0:46:33.640 --> 0:46:34.360
<v Speaker 7>a shadow of that.

0:46:35.800 --> 0:46:39.040
<v Speaker 5>So we should get a maybe an update on Tyler

0:46:39.080 --> 0:46:43.280
<v Speaker 5>Smith to see exactly where he is in this game,

0:46:43.400 --> 0:46:45.040
<v Speaker 5>if he's ready or if they got to give him

0:46:45.040 --> 0:46:51.000
<v Speaker 5>another another week. But you know what, and we said it,

0:46:51.360 --> 0:46:53.440
<v Speaker 5>I'll say it again. I might have been wrong on

0:46:53.520 --> 0:46:56.840
<v Speaker 5>a Doga because he he was more than serviceable in

0:46:56.920 --> 0:47:00.359
<v Speaker 5>that game. I thought he'd played decent night.

0:47:02.239 --> 0:47:03.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm happy.

0:47:04.520 --> 0:47:07.720
<v Speaker 3>And speaking of Nate, as we close out this edition

0:47:07.880 --> 0:47:11.200
<v Speaker 3>of Mix Shots, we got a text, Oh Nate in Frisco.

0:47:11.440 --> 0:47:17.160
<v Speaker 3>He says, great show, Fellas just joking and that's it

0:47:17.520 --> 0:47:20.960
<v Speaker 3>for Mix shots on a Cowboys Wednesday and we will

0:47:21.000 --> 0:47:23.440
<v Speaker 3>see you again and try to do better for Nate

0:47:23.560 --> 0:47:26.360
<v Speaker 3>in Frisco on Thursday at noon.

0:47:26.680 --> 0:47:28.160
<v Speaker 2>Go Cowboys.

0:47:29.080 --> 0:47:32.000

0:47:32.200 --> 0:47:35.120
