Welcome in, everybody. We've got 0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:05.039 Patrick Nosey Walker, Josh Roderiguez, Isaiah stand Back, Chris Beam 0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:07.880 in the back of Kyle Yeoman's Cowboys fall to six 0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:14.320 six and one and their playoff hopes take a severe hit, 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:20.039 a severe dash to the end, and with one month remaining, 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:23.800 they're not out of it mathematically, but man, they're gonna 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:25.160 need a lot of help from here on out. And 0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:27.720 you got to win pretty much everything else from here 0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:31.320 on out in order to do so. So I'll open 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.720 the floor forty four to thirty. It wasn't pretty in 0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:36.160 any phase. There were a lot of mistakes on any 0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:39.800 phase of the imagination of this one offense, defense, special teams. 0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:42.360 Patrick. Since you were in the building at Ford Field, 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:42.800 I will. 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:45.119 And since you had to get up early this morning 0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:47.640 to be on the charter flight to get back here, 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:49.279 I'm gonna let you start. 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.040 I'm not sure what you're excited about it. This is 0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:53.800 a bad game. No, this is a bad game. 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.600 But Josh and I for all the sneaker heads, they 0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:58.920 know we just got to drop this one. And we 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:07.280 successfully acquired the Diamond Turfs Dim Cowboys color Wow. So 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:11.040 we were waiting for the nine am drop got them 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:15.079 and get them breakfast right today? 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:15.400 Brother? 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:21.040 All right, So to the Cowboys, Yeah, where do you 0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.560 start when there are so many places that you can start? 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:27.440 I mean, we talked about how the defense looked different 0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:30.240 coming out of the bow week, and they most certainly did, 0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:31.960 so we're not going to take anything away from that, 0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:35.360 But we also talked about how this was going to 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:38.040 be the test for them. Now we didn't know going 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.200 into this game if Amo Rod Saint Brown would play 0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:42.680 or not. Not only did he not only did he play, 0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:45.920 but Dan Campbell made sure that the Cowboys understood he 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:47.440 was going to be a big part of the game 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:51.360 plan from the word go okay. They didn't have an 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:54.400 answer for him. They didn't have an answer for Jamison Williams, 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.680 and they absolutely did not have an answer for Jamiir Gibbs. 0:02:57.720 --> 0:02:59.720 Now we sat here on this at this panel and 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:01.840 we say that you know, Jamier Gibbs, He's going to 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:05.280 get his every once in a while. Boy, it turns 0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:08.160 out every once in a while is far more often 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:12.720 than I would have liked to see. They couldn't cover 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:16.880 him in space at all, which goes on the struggles. 0:03:16.360 --> 0:03:17.680 At the linebacker corps. 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:21.359 Not going to just yet start pointing out names, we 0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:24.079 just know the linebacker corps as a whole struggled mightily 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:28.240 last night against Jamier Gibbs, David Montgomery. You know, not 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.799 that David Montgomery had a fantastic game, but the play 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:33.360 that he had. When you look at that play and 0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:38.240 break it down, ironbacker Corps, going back to that flip 0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:41.800 it to the offensive side of the ball for the Cowboys, 0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:45.040 and shouts out to Ceedee Lamb because he had the 0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:48.200 bounce back game on Thanksgiving against the Chiefs, So then 0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:51.120 it was about stacking those kinds of days. He was 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:53.080 taking the Lions out back and beating them to within 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.320 an inch of their life. They had no answer for 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:57.440 Ceedee Lamb before he got knocked out with that concussion. 0:03:57.520 --> 0:03:59.400 Knocked out of the game, I should say, with that concussion. 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:01.680 Once he got knocked out of the game, that concussion, 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:05.240 Cowboys had no offense. That was pretty much that you 0:04:05.280 --> 0:04:07.640 got to see more from George Pickens. We'll get to that. 0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.840 I'm quite sure you know. Javonte Williams, he did what 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:14.840 he could. Man your offensive line got manhandled. I mean 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:16.279 that's just absolutely manhandled. 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:17.600 That's the problem in my eyes. 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:20.280 Yeah, huge, just And I want to go ahead and 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:23.000 just blame Isaiah standback because I told you not to 0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:25.760 piss off Aiight Hutchison. I told you, I said leave 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.680 that damn bear alone. Didn't I say it? But did 0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:29.479 you do it? No? 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:30.159 You did not? 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:35.920 Eight Hunchson ten pressures ten ten? How many pressures did 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.400 they have on the on the whole twenty eight and 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:42.760 had half of them? Man, Oh my god, I gave 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:47.040 Terryce Steel rightful praise for handleling Max Crosby. He deleted 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:50.679 Jalen Phillips, that interior with Tyler Booker, they handled Chris Jones. 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:53.440 And here came another test with Aiden Hutchison and eight 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:57.240 Hutchison said, I heard tell somebody said I was not 0:04:57.440 --> 0:04:59.640 in peak for him anymore. He went out there and 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:01.440 he showed that he was. So now we're back to 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:03.880 wondering what's going on with the tackles, because you know, 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:08.080 in Tyler Guiden's absence, now I've seen another bad outing 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.720 from Nate Thomas. I'll go back to what I said 0:05:11.760 --> 0:05:13.920 three weeks ago, two three weeks ago when Nate Thomas 0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:15.840 went in when Tyler got and left with injury, and 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:18.280 Nate Thomas did not have a good showing at all. 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:23.880 Nate Thomas can be a serviceable swing tackle when you 0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:26.320 need him to step in from time to time. 0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:27.600 Yeah, But for. 0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:31.760 Those that are saying he's your full time guy, you're 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:33.360 seeing why he's not your full time guy. And that's 0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:35.160 not to beat up on Nate Thomas because again Terry 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:38.120 Steele had a bad game. I saw Tyler Smith missing 0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:40.600 a couple right the whole line right. 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:42.480 The whole line struggled. 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:45.880 So, I mean Dak was under siege last night. I'm 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.359 just thankful that you know, QB one left in one piece, 0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:51.680 because you wondering. 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:52.800 If he was going to a couple of times. 0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:56.120 Jake Ferguson, he wants to take this tape and set 0:05:56.120 --> 0:05:58.760 it on fire. There's probably I don't want to be 0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:01.280 a prison of recency buying that you guys will. And 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:02.960 I think this was the worst game I've ever seen 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:07.360 from jke FB. I think so OPI call, yeah, it sucked. 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:10.520 It was egregiously bad. That's that helped turn the game. 0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:12.480 That's not why you lost the game. When you see 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:16.160 Jake Ferguson on third and forever and he gets a 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:20.799 check down on third and forever, and I get the effort, 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:22.800 but there are three or four guys on you. You're 0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:24.400 not going to break three or four guys off of 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:27.520 you and run for another twelve yards. You're not doing that. 0:06:27.680 --> 0:06:30.760 Just take the lower case L instead. It turns into 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:31.920 a capital L because it's fumble. 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:34.640 Yeah, it wasn't. What did they do? Wasn't that the 0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:38.560 That was the David Montgomery touchdown that came after the 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.120 Ferguson bumble yeah. 0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:41.640 And then Fergie with the hands of the face that 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:44.400 deleted the DPI downfield. 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:46.560 It was all bad Josh's I think if you're a 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:48.680 detroit you probably saw a lot of weaknesses in the 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.400 Cowboys in terms of physicality and being able to run 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:53.520 to the ball and take advantage of them sort of 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:56.680 giving up when the play is over. The play isn't 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:59.000 over until the whistle. You hear the whistle, and in 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:02.560 a lot of those cases, Cowboys failed. You had a 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:05.680 lot of Dallas Cowboys players individually that had really bad 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:09.560 performances from players that you would not ordinarily see in 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:11.560 my opinion, I mean, you've seen ups and downs this 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:14.280 year from Deron Bland. This is one of his worst games. 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:15.840 I feel like this is one of the worst games 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.440 from Kenneth Murray, who has struggled in and out during 0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:23.360 the season. Terrence Steele and Nate Thomas. My goodness, what 0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:26.440 a terrible game for those two. And it's something that 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:30.440 you would expect them to have a better game, knowing 0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:34.280 what is on the line here and just in. 0:07:34.240 --> 0:07:35.880 Every facet those guys got whooped. 0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:40.520 It's unfortunate because you expect more out of them, even 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:43.040 though Nate Thomas is backup. I mean, we're talking about 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:47.040 if he should be competing for Tyler Giton's number one spot. 0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:50.880 So that feels very unfortunate. Jake Ferguson, Like you said, 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:55.160 there were just so many individual performances. George Pickens. George 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:58.680 Pickens a guy that we've championed this whole season so far, 0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:01.720 and still to me, it's no doubt that he's also 0:08:01.760 --> 0:08:03.840 a number one receiver along with Ceedee Lamb. To me, 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:06.120 there's no question about it. But the effort was in 0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:10.160 question yesterday. But I feel like the Lions did a 0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:13.160 good job of saying Ceedee Lamb and George Pickens are 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:14.920 not going to kill us, even though Ceedee Lamb for 0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:16.440 a large part was killing him. 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:17.880 But you had him frustrated. 0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:20.480 You were frustrating them enough to where they felt like, 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:23.239 all right, fine, you know, they kind of backed off 0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:26.520 in their fundamentals and they were pressing. 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:28.320 So you felt that a lot. 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.760 I mean, you got to be happy for Ryan Flinoy, 0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:34.360 who had a great game all things considered, but you 0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:36.840 really really needed one of George Pickens yesterday and you 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.080 just didn't get it. And even Dak for a large part. 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:41.080 I mean, you got to be able to understand where 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:43.040 the pressure is. If your tackles are not helping you, 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:44.920 you got to throw it away. Man, don't take take 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.840 the lowercase L. Do not take the capital l's. And 0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:48.920 that's what happened quite a bit. 0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:50.600 I thought there were a couple of times where he 0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:52.439 had no finish. 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:56.760 Yeah, he was still in the middle of that final plant, 0:08:56.960 --> 0:08:58.000 but was gone. 0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:01.040 Are we to say that he performed exactly how you 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:04.160 would expect Dak Prescott to play in a game where, yes, 0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:07.400 he played exactly how you wanted to think he played. 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:10.440 That DA had listen, all right, let's let's talk. You 0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:11.520 please talk, QB. 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:12.280 Tell me. 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:15.880 I'm I'm really frustrated. I'm really frustrated. 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:19.760 I sat here and going. I mentioned this last week, 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.120 I said going, or this week, I said going. Before 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:24.880 watching the film, I thought that Dallas was going to 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:29.200 take an L because physically, Detroit has always posed a 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.600 major threat to Dallas, and they always beat up Dallas. 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:34.600 They pumped, they punked Dallas. They just they punked them. 0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:36.840 Even in the game that Dallas won two years ago 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:37.680 in twenty twenty. 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:40.120 Three, they were arguably the more physical team, so that 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:43.400 was remember I said, I said, I fear that Dallas 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:44.200 would get beat up. 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:45.760 But after watching the film. 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:49.720 Based upon the matchups and based upon what they proposed 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:52.040 in terms of their schemes, I felt like Dallas should 0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.480 win this ball game. But physically I was always concerned 0:09:56.200 --> 0:10:00.000 that stayed true. Dallas got physically beat up. They got 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:05.439 punked once again. They obviously stepped on the same field 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:08.280 with the same opportunity. One team played with energy, the 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.040 other team played with no energy. One team continue to 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:12.720 fight back and get back in the game. But even 0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:14.400 when they fight and get back in the game, you 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:16.520 had no sense of confidence because they weren't playing with 0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:25.440 confidence in terms of effectiveness and execution. We sat there 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:28.000 on the pregame show and Kyle posed a question to 0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:29.160 Nate Berry. 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:30.920 And myself, and he asked, if you were. 0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:34.559 Going to shut down Dallas's offense, what would you do 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:38.079 if you're going to shut down this tandem? And I said, 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.480 I would play two men. I would get up at 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.480 the line of scrimmage. I would sit on the inside 0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:45.240 hip pocket. I would contest them at the line of scrimmage, 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.160 and then I would sit underneath their hip all the 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:48.760 game long, with the safety over the top. 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:53.079 What did they do two men the entire time? 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:56.559 I also said, if they choose to do that, then 0:10:56.600 --> 0:11:00.480 you have to go to Jake Ferguson because this defense 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.360 plays base defense. They don't really change much, and they're 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:06.200 gonna have a linebacker on one of your highest paid 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:07.120 players on your team. 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.199 And they did that all night long, as alone, all 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:10.920 night long was covering Jake Ferguson. 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:16.040 As alone shouldn't be able to hold Jake Ferguson's tidy whities, right, 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.080 you can. You can complain about the OPI, you can 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.400 complain about the DPI, you complain about all the times 0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:25.240 he got It doesn't matter that matchup did not get 0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:27.920 highlighted enough. Let's just say that, Okay, they did not 0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:29.719 take advantage of that. I told you sitting there. I 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.040 don't know, Colle's probably tired of me talking at the game, 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.079 but I literally sat there. I said, if i'm Dak Prescott, 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.160 I'm going to Jake. Once I recognize the defense that 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:39.520 they're running, I'm saying, I'm throwing you the ball every 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.400 single time the change until they change. 0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:43.400 Catch the dog on ball. 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:43.800 Right. 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:45.960 We knew it was gonna be contested. Everything was gonna 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:47.920 be contested. This is a sicky team. They're fight. They're 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:51.120 gonna fight to the lights out. Offensive line was trash. 0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:54.400 They're not gonna makes offensive line was absolutely trash. 0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:56.680 Yeah, you talk about Dak and his ability, you know, 0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:57.800 sometimes to throw it away. 0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:00.680 Dak was pressured many times. 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:05.679 He was sacked five times on forty seven dropbacks, twenty 0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:08.360 five times out of forty seven passes. 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:12.440 This dude was under duress. You can't do anything as 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:14.240 a quarterback with that. I can't. 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:17.400 I'm looking on the outside. Obviously, I'm getting the ball 0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:21.320 to cdcd's doing his thing. Okay, even contested catches, amazing 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:23.080 catches with my CD. He goes out the game with 0:12:23.120 --> 0:12:25.520 a concussion. Okay, boom, I have another number one. He's 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:29.520 gonna step up. No, he's jogging. Call it what it is. 0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:31.720 He's jogging. There's no way he can watch this film 0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:34.400 and dispute anything that anybody on TV or a period 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:36.840 right now is saying. He was jogging on routes, he 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:39.480 was short arming routes, he was not giving a full 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.880 effort on a lot of things that we can point 0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:44.400 to in that game. That's not what people want to 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:47.439 see out of your one B receiver. He has to 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:50.439 check himself on that. There's no disputing, no disputing its 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:53.680 old line was absolutely booboo. Javonte Williams did what he 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:56.280 did what he could do with what he was given. Defensively, 0:12:57.120 --> 0:13:00.679 he tried to I couldn't be more frustrated this defense. 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:03.840 I'm not going to call out names right now. There's 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:07.760 some people who shouldn't be out there. Some guys from 0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.319 in terms of their execution shouldn't be out there. Some 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:14.360 guys based upon their physical abilities right now shouldn't be 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:14.719 out there. 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:15.880 Now. 0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:17.680 Do you have much of a choice based upon the 0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:19.720 guys that you have with that depth? Ah, I don't know, 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:21.240 but maybe you might want to put them in a 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:24.560 better position. But I do know that a Manros Saint 0:13:24.559 --> 0:13:30.360 Brown versus fourteen yards off with a safety guarding him. 0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:32.599 Is probably not going to stop him. 0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:35.440 Putting Donovan Wilson fourteen yards away from Momara Saint Brown's 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:35.959 probably not. 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:38.200 A good scheme. And that was on first intent, first 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:39.840 and tent, and that was on multiple occasions. 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:43.440 Okay, just playing off, it's literally passed just routes on air, 0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:44.800 just like if you get to the game early and 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:45.959 you watch teams warm up. 0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:48.000 That's what a Mona Saint Brown did majority of the night. 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:51.040 He didn't have a contested catches. These are routes on air. 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:54.680 Jamison Williams fastest man on the field, no matter what 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:57.560 field he steps on, no matter what opponent. Why is 0:13:57.640 --> 0:14:01.400 Marquis Bell playing manned man on him. One of your 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:07.040 slowest dbs is playing against the fastest man on the field. Schematically, 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:09.440 that makes zero sense to me. I'm not even gonna 0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:11.800 talk about execution. I don't I'm not mad at Marque's Bell. 0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:13.120 He doesn't stand a chance. 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:17.719 Yeah, he doesn't stand put in the position to. 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:19.320 Be successful exactly, doesn't stand that. 0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:22.000 That's a scheme law. That's a scheme thing. So playing 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:25.440 off of Alamara Saint Brown is a scheme issue. Playing 0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:29.880 zone defense and backing off eight yards of freaking Jamier 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:32.520 Gibbs when he lines up at receiver is the scheme problem. 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:35.000 There was scheme issues, there were executions issues. There was 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:37.280 issues across the board. I can go all day long, 0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:39.000 but those are some of the things that were glaring 0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:42.520 in my eyes. We could talk about the Jay Ferguson fumble, 0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:45.960 the effort there, it's hard. I'm frustrated. Yet he fumbled, 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:48.480 so did George Pickens. We just happened to fall on it. 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:51.440 You know a lot of things that are occurring that 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:53.840 have to be cleaned up. Obviously, this game you couldn't 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:57.520 afford to lose. They did lose it refrustrated or the 0:14:57.520 --> 0:14:59.640 one positive that you could take away is that Dak 0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:00.400 didn't it hurt. 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:02.080 Yeah, he's still available. 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:05.280 I mean, even Ceedee Lamb being out in George Pickens pride. 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:06.800 I don't know what it is, but there were a 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:09.120 lot of different than Brandon Aubrey. Brandon Aubrey, I gotta 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:10.720 give him hell, Yeah, kept in the game. 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:15.120 Brandon Aubrey kept single handily kept you kept. 0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:18.280 You get across the literally fifteen and we sat there. 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:21.000 Yeah, that's not a one possession game at twenty seven 0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:23.600 nineteen without Brandon Aubrey get across the fifties. 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:26.440 Yeah, like, and you can see that Dallas. 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:31.360 I don't want to project, I'm going to assume right 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:35.040 based upon what I saw, it felt as if Dallas 0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:38.280 was satisfied getting across the fifty and saying we have 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:39.040 Brandon Aubrey. 0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:43.080 That's what it felt like. Dude. Sure it did, and 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.000 we've seen that happen before. 0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:48.880 We've seen that happen previously with another coaching staff that 0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:49.240 was here. 0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:53.040 Yeah, it's happened before and characteristic. 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:56.080 When your safety blanket becomes your game plan, that's a problem. 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:58.280 And that's kind of what it ultimately felt like. And 0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:00.520 I'm not gonna like you said, I'm not gonna projected 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:02.800 they were trying to go and score touchdowns. Should get 0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:05.280 a twisted whatever they call a play period, it's to 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:06.280 try and score a touchdown. 0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:07.680 That's just how football works. 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:12.600 However, Brandon Aubrey absolutely a weapon. I think my number 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.120 one takeaway from this game is the way that the 0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:18.800 defense did not continue the momentum from the three games 0:16:18.840 --> 0:16:22.160 prior because they were put in bad situations. Don't get 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:24.440 me wrong, y'all have talked about offense, You've talked about defense. 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:26.520 You've talked about the positives of the special teams. How 0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:30.760 about the fact that Detroit averaged a starting field position 0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:34.640 of forty two yard line outside of the final kneel 0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:37.360 down in the game. According to sources, that is not good. No, 0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:39.320 it is not. That means you only have to go 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:44.960 fifty eight yards per drive to score fifty eight yards 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:48.960 instead of seventy five or seventy or sixty five, All 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:50.400 of those things across. 0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:53.800 The board are certainly that's not good. Is that helpful 0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:56.720 when you're eighty percent conversion at risk? Absolutely not. 0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.400 It is not helpful at all. So they were put 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:02.960 in a bad spot. Takeaways, the fumble from Jake Ferguson, 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:05.240 the interception at the beginning of the third quarter, Both 0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:07.720 of those things hurt you tremendously. And it almost hurts 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:09.639 you again as you talked about with the fumble in 0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:12.920 the red zone with George Pickens. So we talk about 0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:16.520 complimentary offense a lot or complimentary football a lot is 0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:21.320 what I right. This was anti complimentary. This was hurt 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:24.280 full football. Your special teams hurt your defense, then your 0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:26.720 offense hurt your defense, then your defense hurts your offense, 0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:30.000 and then it just all kind of fell apart, and you. 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:33.479 Were absolutely so. 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:36.800 I have a hard time looking at this game and 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:42.240 looking at this film and saying Detroit handled you. They 0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:44.399 did physically, don't get me wrong. And I give a 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:46.800 lot of credit to Dan Campbell for getting these guys 0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:48.199 up and ready to play. They had lost two of 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.080 three coming in, and there were a lot of things 0:17:50.119 --> 0:17:51.920 on the line for Detroit just as much as there 0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:57.080 was for Dallas. However, Dallas shot themselves in the foot consistently, 0:17:57.600 --> 0:17:59.280 over and over and over again. And there were things 0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:01.280 that Detroit did better than Dallas, but there are a 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:02.800 lot of things Dallas left on the table. 0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:03.960 And that's the most frustrating. 0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:07.160 Listen, you guys, uh some excellent points, Kyle. You lost 0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:12.720 to yourself absolutely you talk about the Cowboys schematics now, 0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:16.600 execution issues were absolutely there again your linebackers, and not 0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:18.760 necessarily to Marvey on over shown, but some of your 0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:24.320 other linebackers, like Jared Goff threw four three hundred and 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:25.680 nine yards and a touchdown. 0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:28.879 Okay, that's a solid stat line, a solid stat line. 0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:32.280 Okay, two hundred and fifty yards of those, including that touchdown, 0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:35.639 came when the Cowboys were in zone coverage. Cowboys ran 0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:37.800 zone coverage eighty six percent of the time. Yeah, and 0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:40.360 Jerick Goff just sat back there and decimated. You said, 0:18:40.400 --> 0:18:42.000 how much eighty six percent of the time. 0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:46.080 If I got an eighty six on a test, I'd 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:49.840 get like ice cream after after the test my way home. 0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:51.160 Can I just point to something? 0:18:51.240 --> 0:18:53.520 No, see, while you're pointing out the zone, because you 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:56.520 guys know, I hate zone. I was literally about to 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:58.200 throw something through the telestrator. 0:18:58.359 --> 0:18:59.280 Yeah, we had to hold them back. 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:06.560
