You've convinced me 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:56.080 and I would never go say it with your chest 0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.520 Friday without showing a little bit of energy. So it's 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:06.760 saying with your yes boy, yeah right now.

For those of you 0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:15.200 who may be new to talking cowboys in Dallas cowboys 0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:17.520 dot Com, it's like I said, did you bring the heat? 0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:20.040 I want your fan questions on Twitter. I just tweeted 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:22.800 right now, I want you to send in your Twitter 0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:24.880 questions because we're going to answer them coming up here 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.079 in just a little bit. But how are we doing today, gentlemen? 0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:31.359 Because Isaiah doing great things, rob doing great things, and 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:38.280 now we've got an official narrator of a documentary. I did. 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:41.640 I did. I like the whole damn thing. But I 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:44.440 liked I like the voice bringing us along the journey. Bro. 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:50.160 The whole thing was absolutely crazy, the stories, the storylines, 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:53.720 the how close we came to disaster. That was the 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:56.800 one thing about making this that getting those backstories. I'm like, 0:02:56.880 --> 0:02:59.760 we we almost did what we what we were about 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.600 to take whom Just thank god we didn't do that, 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:05.680 the kidness. It could have been crazy the way that 0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:08.960 things turned out, I think for this organization, because it 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:12.440 doesn't every draft, it's not a one year deal. It 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:15.880 is a five to ten year investment on who you're picking. 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.600 And war Stories is the name of the Deep Blue. 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.320 You can go check it out on Dallas Cowboys dot 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:23.160 com on the YouTube channel. It is fantastic and Heckma 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:26.880 Harrison is the voice of that. So yeah, man, it 0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:30.880 really was really cool. Mad props to Caden Gates, Danny Sirek, 0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:33.800 of course Heckma and then all of the individuals that 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:36.120 were a part of that as well. Nick Eatman was 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.560 a big part of that too, and it was really 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:42.120 really cool. So go check it out Deep Blue War Story. 0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:44.840 And I'm sure the narration part of it cannot be easy. 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:48.600 You gotta you gotta get your inflections just right, you know, 0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:50.880 that's that's not an easy thing to pull off, especially 0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:53.120 with a sultry voice. Well, it helps to have a 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:55.520 sultry voice. No, let me tell you something. This is 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:57.360 not really kind of none of us on this show. 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:00.520 The kind of funny story is is that I did it. 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:03.480 The first time I did it, I was so extra like, 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:07.320 how good voice in it? And Derek and Nick came 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:10.040 back to me and said, just stop it. We don't 0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:14.480 want that, We just want you just which is the best? 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:16.760 Just read it? What was the what was the way 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:19.800 they said it to you? Don't try and be Kyle, 0:04:21.440 --> 0:04:27.440 don't be called, don't do radio voice cod get away 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:30.320 from ma, you know, don't do that. You do you 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.359 and read it like you're sitting there talking to your wife. 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:35.919 So I was like, all right, that's easy. I do 0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:38.520 that all the time. It was perfect. It was perfect. 0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:42.000 And Nikki does it too, exactly narrated, and y'all are 0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:45.160 both awesome at it. But I'm gonna I gotta say this, man, 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:49.000 just honestly, working here, working man. I work with some 0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:52.240 amazingly talented people. The people that on the back side 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:56.360 that to roxam Adina, to Chris Beam, to Kevin Timp 0:04:56.520 --> 0:05:01.560 everybody that works here, Scott Purcell, Matt and you know, man, 0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:03.880 if y'all don't know, like, I'm not the most technically 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:07.880 savvy person, so I am. I am always in awe 0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:13.000 of TV production people's ability to see to be forward thinking. 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.320 Because I'm just reading this. I don't understand what it's 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:18.640 gonna happen and how it's gonna be, how it's gonna 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:22.080 play out, and it's just, man, everything about it I 0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:25.160 think is amazing. And being someone from Dallas, h man, 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:27.680 I used to sell programs at Texas Stadium, you know, 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:30.320 so to be able to do this, I mean, this 0:05:30.440 --> 0:05:33.320 never gets old to me. To be in this setting 0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:36.479 and to also know to be a part of those drafts, 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.039 those and talk about those drafts like that. Man, Like 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:41.800 I said, it's a it's an amazing blessing for me. 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:43.920 And I don't take it lightly off for granted, but 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:47.160 that was that was yeah, yeah, yeah, that's for the kid, right. 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:50.560 You guys should have seen his face when he saw 0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:52.520 it streaming live. We were about to do the high 0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:54.679 school game last night and we were in the booth 0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:56.880 and we were about what fifteen minutes to kick off? Yeah, 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:58.560 So I mean it was we were getting right up 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.000 on like getting on air, and he looks down at 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:05.080 his moone he goes, no waylay. They just like freaked out. 0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:06.839 It was awesome. It was a great job to you 0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:09.279 and everybody involved with that. But I think it's it's 0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:11.560 only fitting since we're talking about war stories and we're 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:13.680 talking about the draft, let's talk about some rookies a 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:16.920 little bit here on this edition of Talking Cowboys. Now. 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:19.400 A tough task for some of these guys that are 0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:22.320 trying to make the roster and that are now currently 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:26.040 in COVID nineteen protocols like in Israel, Mukuamu. I'll leave 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:28.440 those guys out, but rob out of the rookies that 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:30.720 you've seen over the last couple of weeks, I'm gonna 0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.840 take Michael Parsons out of this. Who has impressed you 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:37.799 the most since you've returned from Oxnar Ohsa Diggi Zola. 0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:40.040 I think I said it the other day. I mean, 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:43.200 he even if he's not a starter at defensive tackle 0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:46.520 while Neville Gallimore is out with that elbow injury, he's 0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:49.960 gonna play a lot and he's played really well. He's 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:52.880 been a guy that you know they've got him at 0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:55.320 the three technique, but he can move around the defensive 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:58.680 front and his pass rush has been really good and 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:00.920 it shows up in the pre season games as well 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:02.760 as practice. We saw it from the jump in Ox 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.159 and Ard. You know, for a third round draft pick 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.240 to have the type of camp he's having, I think 0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.880 you have to feel better about your tackle depth despite 0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:15.480 the fact that you know you're missing a key piece 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:17.640 of your defense. Right now. With Galimore being out, they 0:07:17.640 --> 0:07:20.000 were really expecting him to take a big jump. Still might, 0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:22.840 but he's gonna be out several weeks, so they need 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:25.080 Osa to deliver, and so far he has. We'll see 0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.640 if he can carry over. Though Osa Diggy Zoola was 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.360 taking seven spots higher than Neville Gallimore was in their 0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:35.160 respective drafts. I mean Osa was seventy five, Gallimore was 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:40.000 eighty two. Isaiah, from what you've seen from Osa Diggy zooa, 0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:42.040 has he gotten off to a better start than Nevill 0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:43.960 Gallimore did last year. I mean we've seen both of 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:46.640 these guys since this group has been on this show. 0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:49.920 We've had those conversations about both of those guys as rookies. 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:52.760 Who do you think was ahead at this point? That's 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.680 a tough question because they're they're they're coming into two 0:07:55.800 --> 0:08:00.560 separate systems, and I think they have two different attributes. 0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:02.960 I think that Olsa is a lot more explosive than Gallimore. 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.040 Gallimore's more of a can kind of consume you type 0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:06.960 of type of guy, UM, and Olsa is like, I 0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:08.200 need to get up in there, right, I need to 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:09.680 be I need to penetrate, let me let me find 0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:11.880 a see. So UM, it's kind of hard to say 0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:13.560 which one is ahead at this point in time. I 0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:16.200 think that with the with the skill set that that 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.680 Olsa has in this system, I think that he will 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:22.320 be definitely have opportunity to shine more um because of 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:24.240 the abilities and the and the opportunities that he's going 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:27.120 to have underneath dan Quinn No. I like that. And 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:30.520 I think that Neville Gallimore, to sort of disadvantage from 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:33.640 last year, was retaught how to be a two gap 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:36.000 guy and so that's what turned him into that. But 0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:39.000 I think this going into training camp, you saw those 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.079 changes about him, you know, with him being able to 0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:45.520 pin his ears back and beat gaps, sound and attack um. 0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:49.360 But if you know Quinn Bohanna to the rookie has 0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:52.440 shown uh, you know I think we were thinking about 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:56.719 when when Woods departed, Um with the whole replacing Don 0:08:56.800 --> 0:09:01.280 Terry Pole and guys like that, to get our defense sound, 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:03.920 for our linebackers to be able to flow. I think 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:08.440 Quentin Bohanna has stepped in naturally, and I like, um, 0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:12.199 what I'm hearing about him from from front office guys 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:15.079 that he's an old soul is what I'm hearing. Is 0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.840 this really a laidback, laid back rookie, but he's showing 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.760 what he has and showing us that he's gonna bring 0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:24.000 some value to this defensive line. A lot of the 0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:27.960 defensive tackle talk after the Neville Gallimore injury against Arizona 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:30.440 was woe is me, Oh my gosh, here we go again. 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:32.760 We're thin a d tackle. But there is a lot 0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:36.240 of positivity I think around those two guys Osa and 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:39.600 about Quentin Bohanna as well. But I'll throw this back 0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:43.560 at you, heckma, how important is it for young defensive 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:47.760 tackles to be simplified? Because you mentioned Nevil Gallimore trying 0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:50.080 to be a two gap player, that's something he could 0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:52.720 certainly do. It wasn't in his comfort zone, and he's 0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:55.800 he's better as a one gap guy. But how how 0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:59.160 does that kind of formulate a defense in order for 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.320 those guys to be successful? And if you ask any 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:03.320 defensive player, the number one thing that they want to 0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:05.160 do is just read and react. They don't want to 0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:06.880 do a whole lot of thinking. If you give them 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:09.959 too many responsibilities, that's where you have a defense that's 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:12.920 playing slow. And so when guys can be gap sound, 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:14.960 they know where they need to be and they can 0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.760 just focus on that, that's when you get the best 0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:20.319 out of guys, you know. And again, I don't want 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:22.360 to I think too much has been made about Mike 0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:25.680 Nolan and what's the success that he didn't have. I 0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:27.320 don't think that he was ever set up to be 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:31.280 successful in the year that we had, right, So I 0:10:31.360 --> 0:10:34.080 just feel as though this new defensive scheme for Dan 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:37.360 Quinn and all of the energy that he's bringing to 0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:40.520 the front line, I think that him teaching these guys 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:43.679 exactly what he's expecting out of them and his defense, 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.520 it's what's important, and that's you know. And I think 0:10:46.600 --> 0:10:48.520 that's just a byproduct of what we've been seeing in 0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:50.400 the preseason, the way these guys have been flowing to 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:53.680 the ball. Rob do you agree, Oh, for sure. I 0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:55.120 was actually I was trying to go down the list 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:59.120 and see if there's anybody else that really Jabril Cox's huge. 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.400 Go ahead. No, I like Jabrille and I like him 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:05.240 like again, he's a he's a product of this system. 0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:08.040 This is where he will shine simply because of his abilities. 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:11.720 He's a solid size, and he's fast, he's quick. His 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:13.640 ability to be able to carry tight ends, which we've 0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:17.840 talked about extensively on the show. That's becoming a highlighted 0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:20.000 position in this league. And you need a guy who 0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:21.920 can run. You need a guy that can run. You 0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:24.559 want to keep your secondary back you prefer to get 0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:27.319 you will preferred to stay too high safety and keep 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.719 your front seven just intact. You don't really you really 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:31.480 don't want to bring that guy down into the box. 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:33.440 So I think Jabrille allows for you to do that 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.000 instead of having to bring, you know, roll somebody down 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:37.920 and row somebody down close to the line. But they 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:40.680 talk about the advantages of being able to keep two 0:11:40.679 --> 0:11:43.839 safeties high and trust your front. Yeah. So typically whenever 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:46.839 you run, whenever as an offensive front right, if the 0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:48.360 quarterback comes up to the line of scrimmage, if you 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:50.080 have two plays called, which is typically what you do 0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:52.960 all the time. Now in this NFL, you come up 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:54.600 to the line of scrimmage, you see too high. Usually 0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:56.160 if you have a run play called, you're running the 0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:58.960 run play. Usually you're running the run play. Because you 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:01.600 have a seven man box. You feel pretty good about that. Typically, 0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.360 how do teams take away your run, Well, they bring 0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:06.560 that safety, they roll that safety down. So now you 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:08.720 have an eight man box. So now you come up, 0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:10.000 you have eight man box. What do you want to 0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:12.120 do as an offense? I want to throw the ball right. 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.200 But so now what you're starting to see is a 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:16.560 lot of teams are coming up with these three receiver sets, right, 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:18.760 so there's really four weapons out there. So instead of 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.720 having to roll that safety down to still have to 0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:24.800 respect that respect the run. Now you can keep two 0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:27.000 guys back, you keep two guys deep on in the 0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:30.080 back end bringing your nickel. Now you've covered up everything 0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:33.080 in terms of receiving potential, and you still have help 0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:35.840 on both sides of the field. Most of the time 0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:37.319 you have helping in the middle of the field and 0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:39.640 single high. I could look that safety off if I'm 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:41.559 really you know, if I'm really good with my eyes, 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:43.360 I could really put guy. I can overload them. I 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:45.400 could flood that safety to make them have to favor 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:48.080 one side, and I could isolate guys like Coop, right, 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:49.959 I can put Coop on one person, whatever I want 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.880 to do. When you have guys two guys back, it 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:55.720 makes it really difficult for offenses to throw the ball. 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:57.800 And if you have a front seven that's dominant and 0:12:57.840 --> 0:12:59.559 you have some guys up front that can really get 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.640 a push and allow our now linebackers to run free, 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:05.560 we can stop both attacks that the offense can can 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:08.880 have against us. Talking about so you're talking two high safety, 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:11.640 so cover two, but dan Quinn traditionally is run a 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:14.480 cover three. What is the biggest difference between the cover 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:16.680 two and cover three? Whenever you kind of talk about 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:18.439 the front seven as well. So you hear a lot 0:13:18.440 --> 0:13:20.800 about cover two whenever you see two high safety, that's 0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:23.120 not just it, that's really at the surface level. So 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.000 on the surface level is Covered two, and then there's 0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:28.480 Cover four, which is every guy has a quarter of 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:30.520 the field. But then you have like Cover eight or 0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:32.800 it's half covered two and it's half Cover four, and 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:34.600 then you have all Cover six and a bunch of 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:37.200 other different variations that don't really get talked about. But 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:40.079 there's a lot of different combinations on one side of 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:42.000 the field where we're playing. Hey, Coop likes to run 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:43.520 these type of routes. So we're gonna roll, We're gonna 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:45.679 run two man. Not only we're gonna run cover two 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:47.679 the safety over the top. We're I'm gonna move that 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:50.160 cornerback on the inside of them, and I'm anna force 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:52.920 everything Coop does on the outside or anybody else, right, 0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:54.520 I want to force them. Right. We might see that 0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.800 against Tampa Bay. You saw it a lot against Michael Gallipla, 0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:58.920 absolutely right. So when we face Tampa Bay, if we 0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:01.640 can have a front seven, that's that's a boss, and 0:14:01.679 --> 0:14:04.439 we can keep two high safeties. Now, guess what, Mike Evans, No, no, 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:06.120 we're gonna take you. We're gonna liminate you. We're gonna 0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:08.400 move our cornerback inside. Tradevon is gonna move inside, or 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:10.200 maybe we don't have to use Trayvon on you, because 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:11.679 now we can run a zone on that side of 0:14:11.720 --> 0:14:13.880 the field and we can man everybody else up with 0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:16.120 safety health. So there's a lot of different options that 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.079 it really provides you and it gives you a lot 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:21.280 of advantages with the ability to stop the run and 0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:24.720 stop the pass. Yeah, and seeing the way that Quinn 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:28.720 is incorporating some Tampa two into his scheme, it says 0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:31.520 a lot about what he thinks about his front and 0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:34.440 their ability to hunt. Because the defensive mindset is, if 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:37.280 I'm gonna play cover two, then I believe wholeheartedly that 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.480 I can get pressure just like this. And that's why 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:42.400 when teams seeing you in the cover three, that's automatic. Man. 0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:45.560 We have matchups on the outside, which last year we 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:48.760 were exposed in that way when we tried any three 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:51.240 because we were exposed on the outside, we just didn't 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:53.480 have the coverage ability and even when we went to 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:56.440 we just didn't have the personnel from a front line 0:14:56.520 --> 0:15:00.640 setting to get that pressure. So that's a fantastic point 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.680 because going into the initial parts of the hiring of 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.680 Dan Quinn as a defensive coordinator, we thought it was 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.120 going to be covered three because it gives you extra 0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:11.600 help up front, extra time, extra coverage on the back 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:14.560 end because you didn't think you were going to get pressure. 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:17.000 The fact that we've gone to these practices and we've 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.720 seen so much Covered two, I think it alludes to 0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:22.320 just how comfortable Dan Quinn is. Heck, you said it 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:24.680 a moment ago, but I just wanted to re emphasize 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.680 that because he is comfortable with the front seven that 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:29.480 he has. Have you seen the same thing, Rob, Yeah, 0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:31.720 for sure. I mean, and they're gonna mix up their coverages. 0:15:31.720 --> 0:15:34.440 Like when Rod Marinelli was here Tampa two was his 0:15:34.640 --> 0:15:36.800 deal play? How much single high did we see? But 0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:39.160 I mean that was primarily what they did. Absolutely, they're 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:41.760 going to change up coverages, like Isaiah said, based on matchups. 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.560 But yeah, it does come down to how effective are 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:47.080 you upfront? How much push can you get. I just 0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:49.600 want to go back real quick to Jubil Cox. He 0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:51.960 I don't know how much he's gonna get to play, 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:56.320 but he's more physical than I think. Maybe he got 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.080 credit for coming out of college. I think the biggest 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:01.000 thing he talked about the other day, he's he's known 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:03.320 as a cover guy, but he is stepped up and 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:05.800 hit and made tackles in these preseason games. We don't 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:08.960 see it in practice. I'm still I'm just very interested 0:16:09.000 --> 0:16:11.120 to see how they're gonna figure out these linebacker reps. Man, 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:13.160 because I you know, I think, yeah, I think it's 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:15.320 gonna be I think it's gonna be a carousel. Man. 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:17.440 I think he's gonna see guys just rolling through. And 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.600 I'm excited to see it. Because now if we're able 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:23.200 to play two high safety, our cornerbacks don't have to 0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:26.080 necessarily play as cornerbacks. We can drop our corners back 0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:29.160 into back into a zone coverage. We can run Jabil 0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:31.840 Cox out to the flat right. We can run him 0:16:31.840 --> 0:16:33.880 all the way from a linebacker box. Soon as we 0:16:33.880 --> 0:16:36.040 see that it's a that's a past. He can literally 0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:37.640 take off from the box and get all the way 0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:39.960 out to where a cover two corner would be playing. 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:42.680 Michael Parsons. Guess what he has that range right to 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:44.160 be able to run out right and if you want 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:45.840 to leave you want if you want to leave Jaylen 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:47.520 in the middle, leave Jaylen in the middle. I have 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:49.720 him spied a quarterback. So now you can put Jaylen 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:51.560 in the middle spying a quarterback, and he's that more 0:16:51.560 --> 0:16:53.840 of a box guy. You can run Jabril and Michael 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:56.280 Parsons out to the flats and you can still have 0:16:56.560 --> 0:16:59.160 all four of your of your secondary guys being able 0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:01.000 to come up and feel gaps to make plays and 0:17:01.040 --> 0:17:03.200 break on balls. It is going to be fun. And 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:05.080 dan Quinn, I know he's sitting back there with his 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:07.399 little his little his little little bag, and he's just 0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:10.119 reaching to his little his little back because at toys, 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:11.840 you know, you know back in the days to take 0:17:11.840 --> 0:17:13.880 all your your your toys out and kind of set 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:15.959 him out. Just kind of sit back and look at him. 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:17.760 I know he's doing that right now. Leading up to 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:20.720 the first game, you had a little bag with your toys. Yeah, 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:24.280 fanny pack acts, Oh yeah, yeah, I'm picturing. Not surprised me. 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:26.119 But why do you always swing your fanny pack to 0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:28.520 the hip? You guys ever do that? I don't hone 0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:32.320 fanny I had one, but it's been a long time. 0:17:32.840 --> 0:17:34.840 A picture in the Rock, you remember the rock picture. Yes, 0:17:35.720 --> 0:17:37.560 he had a leather one. That was a good stuff. 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.120 I mean, Isaiah's just way too big for a fanny pack. Anyway. 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:43.959 My grandpa had a fanny pack. That thing. He had 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:47.120 some much changing it. He was hanging down to his knee. 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:49.680 But but I mean, I just say, I hope Tampa's 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:52.720 not listening to this podcast because Isaiah just gave his 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:55.480 whole scheme away right there. But it's true. I mean 0:17:55.600 --> 0:17:57.520 you see a lot of that with the way uh 0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:00.119 that Michael Parsons is pressure in the A gap and 0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:02.920 then he's belling out and there's nothing new under the sun. 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:05.800 I mean, they're they're just giving multiple looks. But they're 0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:08.920 able to do that with the athletic ability of their guys. 0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:12.080 And when you don't have that, you can't play like that. 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:14.600 And to to your point to backdoor what you just said, 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.199 when you start having guys that are athletic, like the 0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:19.080 guys that we have, these are freak just athletes. Now 0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:20.520 these are not just okay, they're good and they're in 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:23.479 the NFL. These guys are elite athletes in the NFL. 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:27.119 Think about guys like Troy Paulamalu, the things that he 0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:29.240 was able to do, Ed Reid he was able. They're 0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:30.840 able to be at the line of scrimmage at the 0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:32.960 snap right and then all of a sudden take off 0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:35.080 and they're twenty five yards deeper than they were two 0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.520 seconds ago. Right, So you have the ability to do 0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:40.960 that not only with your secondary but now with your linebackers. Right, 0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:43.120 And you started talking about the athleticism of it, like Bohanna, 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:45.880 you could drop you could drop him out. You could 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:47.720 drop him out now, right, man, maybe he shocks the 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.280 center of sharks, shocks the guard and now he's dropping 0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:53.000 out and he's the middle linebacker. Now he's looking up guys, 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:57.119 so they yeah, yeah, absolutely right. So when you have 0:18:57.200 --> 0:19:00.560
