Welcome to another edition of The Break 9 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: Life Nest WBC Mortgage Studios at the Star. And this 10 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: morning we were talking about a big win Cowboys, make 11 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: it three in a row. I picked the Chiefs. You 12 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 1: did not even gonna let Derek get into it, okay, 13 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: chief I also picked the Chiefs and Amber did you? Yeah? 14 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: Didn pick Boat that week. I'm looking at it t here. 15 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: Derrek picked Dallas to win. Okay. Have you ever picked 16 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: another team twin there? Yes? Picked, Yes, I have picked 17 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: another em to win. And I was actually going to 18 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: pick the Chiefs until my man Zeke came back. And 19 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: I told you guys, when Zeke came back, they can 20 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: beat anybody with Zeke. Like Zeke played well yesterday. But 21 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: let's not act like he like put the team on 22 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: his back and that it is not about it is 23 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: not about his number of yards. It is about the 24 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: thread of having Ezekiel it back there. It makes a difference. 25 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: Act like you're that naive day. Well, you know the 26 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: touchdown to Cole Beasley, the first one that that's all Zeke. 27 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: That is that the play action read, you know, and 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: then he just goes right over the middle. I mean, 29 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: that is the luxury of having him on the team. 30 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: And so uh and there there's a couple of other 31 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,759 Speaker 1: runs that you know, it just how many times yesterday 32 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 1: did it look like minus two, minus one? And then 33 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: he just grinds out four and it's second and six. 34 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: It's a huge difference in what they can do on 35 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: second and third down. So he is a huge difference maker. 36 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: The number of times that Ezekiel Elliott just kind of 37 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: disappears into a mound of bodies and then well just 38 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: and then its five yards by the end of the carry. 39 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: It's crazy. You're like, all right, he's hit at the 40 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: lines probably zero one yard, oh he got five, okay. 41 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: And it's not like it's college football where these guys 42 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: are like pushing from the back all the time. Yeah, 43 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: I mean they don't. We don't see that a lot 44 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: out of this team. No, he's just been nice. If 45 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: they did, he's just a tank. He ended up with 46 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: twenty seven carries for ninety three yards, three point four 47 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: average and a touchdown. Not a great average, but like 48 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: you said, he was getting those really tough yards. And again, 49 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: this was a defense that yesterday, in a lot of instances, 50 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: was trying very hard not to let him get those yards, 51 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: and so I thought it did make a difference. And really, 52 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: to be honest with I think this game yesterday was 53 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: much more about the other two things, the passing game 54 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: and of course the defense. Let's start verse with the 55 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: passing game. Dak Prescott goes twenty one to thirty three 56 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: for sixty four percent completion rate, two hundred and forty 57 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: nine yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions, and I think this 58 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: was probably the most important part of that. He had 59 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: three carries for twenty seven yards touchdown. The runs. Once again, 60 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: the runs are what opens up everything yesterday, Nick, you 61 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: and I in the game, we're talking about the fact 62 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: they were running a lot of man, and when you 63 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: got teams running man against you, then it opens up 64 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: opportunities with the quarterback because everybody's got their back to 65 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: the quarterback, and he took advantage of that in some 66 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: key moments yesterday. Well, everybody was a threat yesterday and 67 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: that that was a big key. I mean, Terrence Williams 68 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: got to give him credit. I mean, he's been criticized 69 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: as much as any player on this team, seems like 70 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: this year and even on this show. But we've asked 71 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: him to step up, and he did. Not only did 72 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: he have nine catches, he had nine targets. I mean, 73 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: you talk about a reliable player catching the football, extending 74 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: to play, getting first downs, getting up the field, and 75 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: then when it's time, you know what, when it was 76 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: time to get out of bound or stay in bounds, 77 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: he didn't. He hasn't always made the right call on 78 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: that one, but he did at the end of the game. 79 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: How he just had a really really nice game. Hopefully 80 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: his ankle injuries not too bad. One of the best, 81 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: like two or three games of his every probably rest 82 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: in the most meaningful game and he had Detroit playoffs, 83 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: probably the Green Bay the first Green Bay Playoff game 84 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: two for that matter. But I mean, yeah, he was 85 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: a phenomenal you look at some of the drives that 86 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: they had yesterday. Check this out. They had on the 87 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: four touchdown drives they had, it was seven plays for 88 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: seventy one yards. There was a seven plays for eighty 89 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: two yards. There's a twelve play for fifty eight yards, 90 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: and then there's a thirteen play for eighty seven yards. 91 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: This offense yesterday was doing some things that really were 92 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: I think reminiscent of what they did last year when 93 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: they get on these runs where just offensively they were 94 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: just turning it over and it wasn't like they were 95 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: getting a tons of really big yards. They had some 96 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: big plays yesterday, but there were also some drives where 97 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: they just methodically moved down the field four yards, tier 98 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: five yards, tier three yards here, seven yards here, and 99 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: they would just move the ball. And the most important 100 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: thing I thought to note was that it was a 101 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: lot of those drives were more passes than there were runs. 102 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: Those first two drives I talked about the seven for 103 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: seventy one, seven for eighty two. That six pass plays 104 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: and one run play on both those two drives. Are 105 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: we seeing what we're seeing right now? Are you guys 106 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: convinced that this offense is now really back to what 107 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: it was last year, because I know it wasn't at 108 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: the beginning of the season. And what do you think. 109 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 1: I still I mean, I'm still not one hundred percent 110 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: convinced because we just saw it in one game. I say, 111 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: they've been trying to get that to work, the passing game, 112 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: and they have been trying with they just haven't been 113 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: successful at it. And this was the one game where 114 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: they finally were able to be successful. Example, Terrence Williams 115 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: when he made that first catch. In my head, I'm 116 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: my alright, well, here we go. There's his one play. 117 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he always has one good play per game 118 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: and then that's basically it. But this game he was 119 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: able to get it going and keep it going, and 120 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: they were able to get Cold beastly involved. Dez was 121 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: able to start catching passes and have a better connection 122 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: with Dak. So we finally saw them be successful at 123 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: the passing game. And I would say it's a little 124 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: too soon to jump ahead and say, oh yeah, I'm 125 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: feeling great about it. I still need to see a 126 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: couple more games before that. Well, you know, they scored 127 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: twenty eight points and I believe it's five straight games, 128 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: and so I think I think they are in a 129 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: nice groove. You know, it's gonna be this is a 130 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: if you want to pick your poison type of offense, 131 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna be games where today is Terence's day and 132 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: then Cole is the red zone guy. Jason Witten had 133 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: one catch for five yards, but in Atlanta they could 134 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: be Jason Witten for seven or eight. So I think 135 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: it's you know that Zeke's gonna be constant. You'd like 136 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: to see Dez be constant, and then the other guys 137 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: just kind of whenever it's their turn to step up, 138 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: step up. Well, what's awesome is and I mean we 139 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: are halfway through the season now and Dez has yet 140 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: to have that game and he got hurt yesterdays and 141 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to dog him, but that's what kind 142 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: of what we talk about, is like step up. You 143 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: know who's stepped up, and it doesn't it doesn't matter 144 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: who steps up because of this. It's Dak He's he's 145 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: balling out. And honestly, you know, I hear what you're saying, Amber, 146 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: and you know San Francisco they're they're a bad team, 147 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: so you can take whatever you want from that. But 148 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: This is three straight games where they've really been on 149 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: a roll, and yesterday was maybe the most encouraging because 150 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: the like we just talked about, like the running game 151 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: wasn't that was not the way they want to run 152 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: the football, and which is hilarious because they ran it 153 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: pretty well. Thirty three yards, Yeah, a good day. But 154 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: when you're coming off of two sixty three as a 155 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: team against the forty nine ers and one ninety whatever 156 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: against the Redskins, like that's how they want to run 157 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: the football. But Dak picked up the slack. I mean, 158 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: third and fifteen at the end of the first half, 159 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: twenty one yards to days third and four. We were 160 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: talking about that last night. Five yards to Witten on 161 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: a play that would have been a pick six if 162 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: it hadn't been placed in just the right spot. Another 163 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: third and four on a scoring drive, Dak scrambles for 164 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: five yards. Like he is just I mean, like I 165 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: was talking about this earlier this morning on Twitter, and 166 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: he's going to start to get more love if he 167 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: keeps this up, especially if Zekee is suspended. But like 168 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: he's playing at an MVP level in my opinion, just 169 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: in terms of you know, he's not making mistakes. He's 170 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: moving the ball. He's doing it with his feet, he's 171 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: doing it with his arm. He's got what twenty total 172 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: touchdowns with four turnovers, and he's just he looks masterful 173 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: with the way he's moving his offense. And I thought 174 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: yesterday he didn't complete them all, but his willingness and 175 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: his confidence to fire the ball downfield yesterday was really impressive. 176 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he you know, people want to give him 177 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: all this crap for Dinkin and Duncan. He wasn't doing 178 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: that yesterday. He was throwing, you know, fifteen eighteen yards 179 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: down field, firing in between cornerbacks, looking for gaps in 180 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: the coverage. I thought he looked like a piece. He 181 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: could have easily run the ball there at the in 182 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: the right before halftime, had a first down, could have 183 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: gotten in ten fifteen more yards got out of bounds, 184 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: Terrence playing, but he decided to just sling it to Terrence. 185 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: And you know, that was a huge play I mean 186 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: because I mean it was a nice throw on the run. 187 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: He gave him a chance. Terrence did a good job. 188 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 1: You know, a lot of times with receivers crossing over 189 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: the middle. It just bugs me when when they're running, 190 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: and then they want the ball in stride, of course, 191 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: because they want to catch it and go. That's what 192 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: they want to do. But sometimes the ball's not there, 193 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: and then they won't stop running and they'll just try 194 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: to catch it and still and then they don't make 195 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: the play. And he did a nice job of stopping 196 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: catching it. And then we'll see what happens because it 197 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: was a little bit under thrown. But that's okay because 198 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: you've given your guy a chance. I saw somebody say 199 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: this on Twitter yesterday. I apologize. I don't remember who 200 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: it was, but Terrence is so if there's one thing 201 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: he really is phenomenally good at, it's like turning the 202 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: short route into the long game, like he'll take the 203 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: eight yard curl and then he's just great at maneuvering 204 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: around the tackler and turning that into a mine. And 205 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,479 Speaker 1: I talked about that. That That was DC Blue Forever twenty three. 206 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, DC Blue, but you guys did mention in 207 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 1: that in that in that series, right there before the half. 208 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 1: I thought the really the moment of that, and Dave 209 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 1: you kind of mentioned it. There was a third and fifteen. 210 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: It made so much more sense just from a football perspective, 211 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: you basically think about the scenario. It's a one minute, 212 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: thirty seconds left and a half, you're at your own thirteen, 213 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: it's third and fifteen, and you're facing a team that 214 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,599 Speaker 1: you think is pretty good offensively. Right, in most situations, 215 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: you would think that's a you know, hand the ball off, 216 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: get as many yards you can punt. It forced them 217 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: to take that last time out. That's the importance of 218 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: running the ball right there, and then they have to 219 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: try to see what they can do there with maybe 220 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: a minute ten left and no timeouts. Cowboys, they didn't. 221 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: They were aggressive on third and fifteen at their own thirteen. 222 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: They converted with a pass or they converted with Was 223 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: it a penalty that next play that actually got the 224 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: conversion or was it the pass it was a past 225 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: day it does It was twenty one yard passed today, right, 226 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: and that's how they convert and then they keep it 227 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: moving you get the fifty six yard or so. To me, 228 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 1: you got to give credit to the offensive coordinator for 229 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: making the call. It's pretty ballsy. I don't know if 230 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: I would have made that call, but it was it was. 231 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: They made it work. Yes, go ahead, so no, I'm switching. 232 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: I just I'm I'm I'm not. I'm gonna pat myself 233 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,719 Speaker 1: on the back because I said that I thought they 234 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: needed to be aggressive right there against this and fifteen. 235 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: You you were going for it. I would just that 236 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: drive in general, like that needed to be a drive 237 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: where you tried to get points. Obviously we know in hindsight, 238 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: we know that the Chiefs never really got their offense going. 239 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 1: But I just thought you had to assume that they would. 240 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: But did you even if and I agree with you, 241 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: and when that series start, I thought they need points 242 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: here and specifically need a touchdown. But did you did 243 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: you at all change when you got to the third 244 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: and fifteen. I don't like if you have a quarterback 245 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: of Dak's caliber, maybe if it's third and thirty or something, 246 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't believe in the give up 247 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: play at the NFL level, not if you have a 248 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: quarterback like that, Like that's what you do in college 249 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: when you don't trust your sophomore quarterback to get it, 250 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: you know, to throw it down field. But and they 251 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: clearly trust him now obviously putting him in that situation, 252 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: you gotta trust And that's Sorry, That's my point is, 253 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: you know, okay, Bryce, Bryce had a drop because of 254 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: the sun. Dez had a drop because of the sun. 255 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: There were definitely Dak had a bad misfire to James 256 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: Hannah early in the game on just one of those 257 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: little actions, and he came right back though and just 258 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: darted it right down field to Deaz. I think it 259 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 1: was the very next play. He didn't complete them all, 260 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 1: That's not what I'm trying to say, but he was 261 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: just firing the ball downfield yesterday with a confidence and 262 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: their willingness to do that. That really impressed me. Here's 263 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: what's interesting on that play. Let's say that third and fifteen, 264 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: they decide to run call time out. They have nice 265 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: punt by Chris Jones. With no timeouts, the Chiefs don't 266 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 1: really get anything. Maybe Kel always get a sack half 267 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: in At seven to three, a four point lead, You'd 268 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: be feeling pretty good about that. They had a four 269 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: point lead, and they weren't feeling good about it. Nobody 270 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: was feeling good about it. It's just kind of funny 271 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: how one minute of play can change everything. Even if 272 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: the score seven to three, you'd been like, wow, this 273 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: defense is playing out standing offensives to pick it up 274 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: a little bit, but who would have thought this. Instead, 275 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: it was fourteen to ten, and I'm sure we'll segue 276 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: into that, and it was like, well it's over. Oh 277 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: my god, it's over. Yeah, that play there before the 278 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: half and I've I've as a Texas fan, experienced that 279 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: earlier this season, happened in the USC game. But it 280 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: it almost makes you wonder, like, what's the right answer there, 281 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: because you do want to have you guys back in 282 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: case you think they're gonna throw a hell Mary, because 283 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: they were they hadn't. I mean, it was obviously where 284 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: they were on the field, all hell Mary, huh, hell 285 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: he'll marry. Yeah, that was possible where they were on 286 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: the field. So conventional wisdom says, yes, get your guys 287 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: back and make sure you protected against that. I told 288 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: you in the present Pox, I believe it was either 289 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: you or to the other side. But I was like, 290 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: don't leave the middle this way. I remember just saying 291 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 1: ridiculous because you put two guys there right in the middle. 292 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: You don't need seven in the back. Just put five 293 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: in the back, two in the middle. If they do 294 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: that dump off play, those two blockers are just gonna 295 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: hit those two guys. I would put show on Lee 296 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: because when he back, I think he was back on 297 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: the field. It was all it was all hands me 298 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: give me and Hitchens, gimme Wilson and Hitchens or somebody 299 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: right in the middle of the field. When they do 300 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: that play, Kelsey and the other tight end are just 301 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,719 Speaker 1: gonna blast them. Now it's hill against five guys, right, 302 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: I think I'll take my chances. You never know, you're 303 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: talking about a world class athlete though. I mean, that 304 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: just was a horrible coaching job. But I don't like 305 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: to blame the coaches all the time, but that alignment 306 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: was ridiculous. Now make the play. I get it, Scandrick. 307 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: I'd like for you to touch the guy. I'm not 308 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: asking you to run. You know, every touch him. Everything 309 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: you're saying is right, and they could have aligned it better, 310 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: but like everybody just kind of broke down, like everybody 311 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: was afraid of it was just right. But that's what 312 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: the that's what speed does to you. When you got 313 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: a guy that's that fast, everybody kind of freezes because 314 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: you're like, if I run him too if I go 315 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: at him too fast and he takes off I don't 316 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: have a chance to recover, and he's gonna run right 317 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: by me. All that was was a stat grabbing play. 318 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: We're just gonna dump the ball off to very hill. 319 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: He's gonna get some stats. My quarterback is gonna get 320 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: some stats, and maybe they'll face mask us and we'll 321 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: get a field goal out of that. I don't think 322 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: they thought like that. I think they this guy, I 323 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: think they got it like this. You give you give 324 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: him a chance, but there's no way they thought we're 325 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: gonna score. Well. But here's why. Here's why I think 326 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: they thought they would score is because when you think 327 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: about it, basically, you got a guy that's extremely fast, 328 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: was really good in the open field, already knows how 329 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: to return punts really well. You gave him a punt 330 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: return situation now with about thirty or forty yards to 331 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: get a touchdown. Right, don't you like that kind of matchup? 332 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: Because basically he's had what two three guys got You 333 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: got two or three guys in front of him. You've 334 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: got on that side of the field two or three, 335 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: four maybe guys. So all you need is this speed 336 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: to be able to find acreasing get through it, to 337 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: get to a touchdown, and that's that's exactly what happened. 338 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: So it actually is a I think a very brilliantly 339 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: designed play. When teams are thinking, hey, let's just get 340 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: everybody back, it actually creates a great scenario for them 341 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: with the kind of personnel that they had. That's why 342 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: they should never just get everybody back. That's why it's 343 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: a horrible alignment for the defense. There's no reason to 344 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: be everybody back. I mean, there's fifty three yards across. 345 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: If you put five guys, there are ten yards splits. 346 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: That's plenty of space and time. Put a couple of 347 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: guys right up there or just I mean, now I 348 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: just put two guys in the middle of the field 349 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: that I just thought marion Elli and then they just 350 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: butchered that one. And that that may also be a 351 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: situation of a player like I don't know that there 352 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: are a problem. There may be two or three guys 353 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: in the league that would have gotten a touchdown in 354 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: that play. Literally, you could you could run that every 355 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: if you ran that with every team in the league, 356 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: Like they're one of a couple that has that type 357 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: of playmate, right, and I know they have one. Obviously, 358 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: this sounds silly for us because every game we've ever 359 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: seen in our life is from a pie from the TV. 360 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: But when you have a dynamic player like that two 361 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: tight ends, I guarantee you not everybody sees him at first. 362 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: That's what one of the reasons why Emmett was so good, 363 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: because linebackers would say, we didn't see Emmett for about 364 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: a half second, and then all of a sudden, there 365 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: he is because he's little, and then you got these 366 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: blockers and you're down there, and then all the next 367 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: thing you know, he's here. And when he's fast, of course, 368 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: I mean blazing fast. So it worked out perfectly for 369 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,239 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. But I do think if they do that 370 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: ten times, I mean, I don't think the Cowboys, I 371 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: don't think it's a touchdown. I mean maybe the one 372 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: that's the one time so wild that I mean, well, really, 373 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 1: it's funny how the story is like. That's the difference 374 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: between this was a nice win against one of the 375 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: NFL's better teams. It could have been a domination of 376 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: one of the NFL's right I mean, and I still 377 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: kind of put it in that category because I think 378 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: of that play as I don't take plays away. But 379 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: I do say that that play is not as reflective 380 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: of how this game really was played. Like they that 381 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: was one of those flute plays where yes, you give 382 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: them the points and it was a great design and 383 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: they scored with it. But when I look at this defense, 384 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: I don't really put the defense down too much of 385 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: that all makes no it does. It doesn't make sense, 386 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: But you can't take it away right absolutely. I mean, 387 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: but it's on the scoreboard. But you look at it 388 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: and say, two catches for fifty six years sixty four 389 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 1: yards he had. He I mean, I don't call me 390 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: a homer if you want to, like, he did not 391 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: have an impact on this game. I know that. I 392 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: know that sounds stupid. Nor did Kareem Hunt. He scored 393 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 1: a fifty six yard touchdown. I get how silly that sounds. 394 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: But he had one catch for eight yards in the 395 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: real scheme of Kansas City's offense, when you're not when 396 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: it's not a gimmick at the end of the half, 397 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: and let's actual, let's take our break when we come back. 398 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: I'll let you get to that. But we got to 399 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: talk about the reason why that happened, the reason why 400 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 1: Kareem hunt was held to what he was. This defense 401 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,239 Speaker 1: played outstanding. That's now three weeks in a row when 402 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: they've played really, really good football. Are we starting to 403 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: see maybe the turning of this thing a little bit 404 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: to where you can start relying on this defense. So 405 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 1: at least hold the side of the of the coin 406 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: on this thing.

Back to the break Welcome back. It's 451 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: the second segment of a break life from the SWBC 452 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: Morket Studios At the Star. We're talking about the Cowboys 453 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: big win versus Kansas City Chiefs. They moved to twenty 454 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: eight and seventeen, and we've been talking about the off 455 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: it's quite a bit and what they were able to 456 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: do yesterday. It was a really good game for them, 457 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: But we really do have to talk about this defense 458 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 1: to be able to hold the Kansas City Chiefs to 459 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 1: seventeen points, which is the second lowest output for them 460 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: all season. They only scored thirteen against Pittsburgh to be 461 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: able to hold Kareem Hunt to thirty seven yards rushing yards. 462 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 1: It was the second lowest day of rushing that he's 463 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: had this season. Again, twenty three to Pittsburgh was the 464 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: most or the least, to allow only four of eleven 465 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: on third downs just thirty six percent, and zero of 466 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: one on fourth downs. I mean, this defense played against 467 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: an offense that is considered, if not the best, one 468 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: of the best in the league. I thought it was 469 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 1: probably it was their best performance I think of the season. 470 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: What do you think about the defense? Tell me about 471 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: by what your thoughts were there? It's not even close. 472 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,479 Speaker 1: And I think I'll go ahead and speak for all 473 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 1: three of us. I think that's okay that anybody that 474 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: picked the Chiefs to win this game did it because 475 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: of the defense. Yeah, that's cool, awesome, you always picked Cowboys. 476 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: It's fine. No, I did not expect them to stop him. No, no, 477 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: nobody did. No. But you can go back and find 478 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 1: the tape. I thought the Dallas offense would be just fine. 479 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: I thought they'd score between twenty seven and thirty points. 480 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: They'd look exactly like they always do. I didn't. I 481 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: didn't see that coming from the defense, and I don't 482 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,959 Speaker 1: think anyone did. And if you say you did, you're 483 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: a liar. Yeah, which and it's amazing because, Okay, you 484 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: can go back to San Francisco, they're not very good team. 485 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: You can go back to Washington. They played that game 486 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: in a monsoon. This was indoors against one of the 487 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: most explosives off explosive offenses in the league, and they 488 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: dominated them. I mean they really did. Alex Smith two 489 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: sixty three fifty six of which came on that hail Mary, 490 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 1: so about two hundred passing yards. Travis Kelsey did all right. 491 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: I mean he had a pretty good and a lot 492 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: of that happened in some of the junk time there 493 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: at the end when they were just kind of trying 494 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: to drive them. But I mean he but Kelsey. But 495 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: he beat up on Byron Jones a little bit. That's fine. 496 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: But I mean, Kareem Hunt non factor in this game. Really. 497 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: I mean, Sean Lee was everywhere sniffed out a screen 498 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: that might have been a sixty seventy yard type of play. 499 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: It seemed like every time Tyreek Hill they tried to 500 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: get Tyreek Hill involved as a runner. He carried the 501 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: ball four times, which is a lot for a wide 502 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: receiver and average two point three yards per carry pass rush. 503 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: I mean they got two sacks, but even more than that. 504 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: From the very first series, Alex Smith was on the 505 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: run or moving around in the pocket. It seemed like 506 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 1: every single play. And the key thing they didn't let 507 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 1: him get outside the pocket too much, because that's another 508 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: thing he can do is he can beat you with 509 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: his legs, and they didn't really allow him to do 510 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: that too much yesterday. Sean Lee, though, when you think 511 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 1: about what he does for this team now, I know 512 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,360 Speaker 1: he was on the field in Denver. Nobody played well 513 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: in that game. He didn't play well, but you know, 514 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: I'd like to think if you had him for those 515 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: two losses against the Packers and the Rams, it might 516 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: have been different, and it just might have been a 517 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: different story. He's that much of a difference maker, and 518 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: we're really seeing it. I mean, they had him for 519 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: twelve tackles. I bet you the Cowboys coaching staff gets 520 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: him for about sixteen. I mean, he seemed like he 521 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: was in every play yesterday. You know, I was very 522 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: concerned at the beginning because the defense start off really 523 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,479 Speaker 1: good and I'm like, okay, well they're sorry enough like that. 524 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: I hope they're able to keep it going and I'll 525 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: get tired and just kind of let the game go 526 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: by and let the Chiefs start scoring point But it 527 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 1: was really really great to see that they were able 528 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: to balance everything out and keep it going. Again, very 529 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 1: promising to see how they played. But yes, there are 530 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: areas that need to be improved. Example, they're tackling, and 531 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: that's one of the things I kept seeing on Twitter, 532 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: everyone talking about the way they're tackling and how they 533 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: need to improve that, and we saw that. Thank god, 534 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: it worked out to their advantage that they were able 535 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: to stop them and stop them from scoring so many points. 536 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: Aside from that big mess up before halftime, I thought 537 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown played a really nice game. I mean, he 538 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 1: was challenged a lot that they had Tyreek Hill on him, 539 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: and that's one thing about Brown is that he's a 540 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: very fast player himself. He's not, you know, I rekill fast, 541 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: but he definitely can run. And I thought he did 542 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: a nice job yesterday, and they tried a little bit, 543 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: but it wasn't there And Jordan Lewis of Scandrick, those guys, 544 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: all of them, really, I mean they were tested. They 545 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: did a good job. I thought the safety, yeah, I 546 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: mean that was a horrible thirty minutes for one player, 547 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: thirty minutes and fourteen of it is. And I don't 548 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: think he played, honestly, I don't think he played overall 549 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: horrible game. Talking about Byron Joe, talking about Bron Jones, 550 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: I don't think he played. And you guys made different 551 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 1: I don't think he played a horrible game. I think 552 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: you're right. There was that that moment, like the penalty 553 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 1: on all the way through till touchdown in the third quarter. 554 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: That whole period was kind of his moment to five 555 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: plays in thirty minutes, five played, five moments. I mean, 556 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: he's because he has a stupid penalty throwing the guy 557 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,719 Speaker 1: out of bounds. That's dumb. That that that changed from 558 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: them kneeling the ball down to saying, let's try for 559 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: something here. Then he was a part of that that 560 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: didn't make a play. And then he takes his helmet 561 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: off because he's mad about something. That's another penalty. So 562 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: then they kick off from the twenty and then that 563 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: they were in a perfect field position to start, he 564 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: gets a stiff arm to the face and goes for 565 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: a little ride like on six flags for fifteen yards 566 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: with Kareem Hunt. Then he gives up a touchdown to 567 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,719 Speaker 1: Kelsey and seriously, I counted it was thirty two minutes 568 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: of real lifetime and thirteen minutes of it is in 569 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: the locker room. So tough, really bad stretch there for him. 570 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: It's a bad sequence for thirty one right there. Yeah, 571 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: but he you know, he kinda turned it around a 572 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 1: little bit. I mean I would I wouldn't. I wouldn't 573 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: try to say Byron had a great game. But I 574 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: mean seventeen total points, ten ten real points, ten points 575 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: from your actual offense against. And I remember, go back 576 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: to Wednesday of last week, we were just like one 577 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: one one. The Chiefs are ranked one, two or three 578 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: in every category. I mean explosive play and a lot 579 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 1: of the day they had him with Kelsey. I mean, 580 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: that's the part that you have to remember, is he 581 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: had Kelsey a lot yesterday. And I thought that was 582 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 1: he did a good job. I think going into the game, 583 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,959 Speaker 1: they were they had thirty seven plays of seven catches 584 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: for seventy three yards in a touchdown. I hear what 585 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: you're saying, But you got to watch Kelsey every week 586 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: and to appreciate the fact that that still to hold 587 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: him to seven and seventy seven catches. Yeah, it was 588 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: like two or three catches just on the last year. 589 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: It's the same. It's the same thing I say all 590 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: the time, is you know, this isn't again, This isn't 591 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 1: college where you're just gonna completely dominate somebody like you're 592 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: gonna give up chunk plays. In the NFL, these guys 593 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: are too good not to do that. And so if 594 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey had that stat line, but Tyreek Hill had 595 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: sixty total yards, one of which was a chunk play, 596 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: and Kareem Hunt had one of his worst games as 597 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: a pro, Like that's a win and exact, you know, 598 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: that's okay. If Travis Kelsey had a good day, if 599 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: nobody else did, that's the way the NFL works. So 600 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,479 Speaker 1: I guess I guess that being said, you know, the 601 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: Chiefs have had several I think they had thirty seven 602 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,360 Speaker 1: plays of twenty yards or more. Um So the play 603 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 1: at the end of the half was one and I 604 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: think I don't have my stay out in front of me. 605 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: But had they had two more three total, yeah, two 606 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: more of twenty two yards. So you have to say 607 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 1: that your safeties are doing something right if they're not 608 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: giving up the big plays, because it's their job to 609 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: make sure that everything's in front of him. So as 610 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: bad as it was there for that stress for Brymon Jones, 611 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: they obviously did their job kept things in front of course. 612 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: Jeff Heath, you know, I don't know how if he 613 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: had a great game in all the way around, but 614 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: I know they had a great play, great play on 615 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 1: the ball. He almost had two. I talked to him 616 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: about that last night too. In the third quarter he 617 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: read he read Alex Smith's eyes beautifully. It was a 618 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: throw to d' anthony Thomas, and he jumped it just 619 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: like he did on the interception, and he was in 620 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: position to get it and lit like d' anthony Thomas 621 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: just like undercut him. And it was a lot like 622 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: the Witten catch. He just stole it from him, basically. 623 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: And he told me he was like, I thought it 624 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: was either incomplete or an interception. I'm still oh. And 625 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,959 Speaker 1: then the guy got up in like sixty yards. I mean, 626 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: but he was down, but yeah, yeah it was. I 627 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: mean it was bang bang, like super close to being 628 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: an their pick. So I thought Jeff Heith played just fine, 629 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: totally honest, Anthony Thomas, I just thought about that. Man. 630 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: If the Chiefs have like a if every team had 631 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: like their own relay team, I'm going with the Chiefs 632 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: the Anthony to speak. I don't know who else other 633 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: than those two. But although a good sign for all 634 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: of you, uh you know, the youth movement fans out there, 635 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: of which I know there are a lot. Xavier Woods 636 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: got a lot of playing time at safety last night, 637 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: and I got to assume one of these days Cheeto 638 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 1: is gonna return to practice. So the secondary that first 639 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: summon along, he had a really nice play there. They 640 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: were they were going to at Kelsey third down um 641 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: and and basically Byron Jones was manned up against him. 642 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: Xavier Woods comes up and gets the past defense. Uh 643 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: so he from the very beginning he made a play 644 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: there to that kind of set the tone for the 645 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: day against these guys. You watching that play, I just 646 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: now got your new Day reference. Can that was that? 647 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 1: The delayed reaction on my I agree all those guys 648 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: just yeah, you guys can't see if it's Yeah, they're 649 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: watching the tire kill play. It's an ugly it's an 650 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: ugly play. But you know what it's if that, if 651 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: that's the big I mean, if that's the biggest gain 652 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: of their day, if that's the highlight of their day, 653 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty absolutely I like I said, I mean, 654 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: you can come up with excuses for why these guys. 655 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: The defense played well in the last two wins, but 656 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: in indoor track, closed roof, like perfect conditions against one 657 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: of the most explosive offenses in the NFL. I thought 658 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: they had a hell. Hear what Jerry Jones was doing 659 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: on that eating hot dog. Yeah, he left early to 660 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: get a hot dog because he was like, there's no 661 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: way they'll score with two. So you scored and you 662 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: got the touchdown, so you're like, let me go grabble. 663 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: But see, here's my thing is like, okay, me as 664 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: the lowly reporter, I need to make strategic moves like that, 665 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: like I need to leave early to get my hot 666 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: dogs so I don't have to wait in line. Jerry 667 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: Jones owns the building, Like I would do that on purpose. 668 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,719 Speaker 1: I would walk down in the middle of halftime and 669 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: cut the line and be like, yeah, do something about it, 670 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: Like I'm the owner. I'm gonna jump in front of 671 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: the hot dog line. Actually, you're actually like there's a line, 672 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: the line the hot dogs. I don't think there's a line. 673 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: There's the hot dogs are probably in the site, yes, 674 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: well no, they're in they're in the sweet but not 675 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: in his little viewing stand. I would guess you don't think. 676 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: I bet he went down I bet he went downstairs. 677 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: I bet he did. I would I would talk to 678 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: some food there, or he can actually make a request 679 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: and I'm sure it would come to him very quick. 680 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: It's like they do for you guys, Dave. They bring 681 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: the tray of hot dogs a halftime for you guys, 682 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: like a little buffet. They got that for Jerry. Probably 683 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: don't see that. I'm not familiar with the tray being 684 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: brought around. I must be missing something. No, not brought 685 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: around like or you guys get served pregame. That's what 686 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Time food there. But that's what I'm saying. 687 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: Like there's a line though, because the long line because 688 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: people sports writers are not the healthiest types. They love 689 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: eating bad food. Not self included. All right, let's let's 690 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: talk about the one thing yesterday in my opinion, Hold 691 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: on real quick, because I can I segue something very 692 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: really quick here anytime talked about running, Yeah, talked about 693 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: speed and track. Okay, can I just talk about a 694 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: half marathon for a second. We're gonna get to that 695 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: in the third segment. Geez, you just let me run 696 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 1: this show man seriously later kill me. All right, let's 697 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: talk about let's talk about the one thing that did 698 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: not go well for the Cowboys yesterday. There were a 699 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: lot of notable players that by the end of that 700 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: game where on the sideline injured. True, and I don't 701 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: know that we know a lot, but we do need 702 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: to at least talk about it. Dez Bryant, Tyren Smith, 703 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: Terrence Williams all left the game. Talk to me about 704 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: what you know at this point and what you'll be 705 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: watching this week with regards to their injuries. Well, Wednesday, 706 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: they'll be did not practice. Well we know that for 707 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: Tying for sure. Right, that's actually Daz has an ankle, 708 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: which he says he's hopeful you know too. Well, Yeah, 709 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: but yeah, did you go to the m R. Did 710 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: you get our MRI not that I'm aware of, he said. 711 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: He said, it's not serious. He said, he's okay, Now, 712 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: I all right, I'm catching jokes slow today. I went 713 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: to bed late. Uh, I don't. We'll talk about that 714 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: in the third segment. I don't think you needed an MRI. 715 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: Uh Terrence. Also, I think I heard it was the 716 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: same ankle he heard in like week one, right? Um 717 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: was he okay? I don't. He did talk in the 718 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: locker room afterwards. I I it's gonna be one of 719 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: those things, like he's gonna be on the practice report. 720 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: I'm not particularly concerned that it's like a missing game 721 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: time type deal. I would think with Dez, I would 722 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: think Des has a chance to maybe miss the game. 723 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 1: So I mean, we'll we'll see what he said. But 724 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: I don't mean this in a bad way. But you can't. 725 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: You can't always trust a player always see after a game. 726 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: You can't. When I mean, I'll always remember Felix Jones 727 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight rookie year. He said he heard 728 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: his hip or thigh and he was like, I'll be 729 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: I'll be fine next week. He didn't play again the 730 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: rest of the season, missed end games, so it just happens. 731 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: I mean they think one way, especially after a game, 732 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: they got adrenaline pumping. That's where I was gonna go 733 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: with Tyron. Jerry said. I visited with Tyron, he says 734 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: he's fine, and then I talked to Tyron and he 735 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I'm fine, And I'm like, but it's 736 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: a groin, right, And I was like, well, you're not 737 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: gonna practice Wednesday anyway. So but I mean growing to me, 738 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, if you hurt, you're growing. I don't 739 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: know of a lot of people that are playing by 740 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: you know, a week. Well, it also depends on how 741 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: severe obviously hurt. But just growing is a scary injury 742 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 1: because it's not typically the same the type of thing 743 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 1: you can bounce back from in a week. Now. If 744 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: there's one guy that you would probably not bet against, 745 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: it's Tyring because he's an iron man. He'll you know, 746 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: he plays through a bad back situation where he doesn't 747 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: practice whatever. So it's it's something to keep an eye on. 748 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: It's troubling. But like I said, if there's one guy 749 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,439 Speaker 1: that I'm not going to rule out, it's probably him, 750 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: but that that would be troubling for sure. Yeah, so 751 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: these that's that's probably I mean, Jonathan Cooper's playing great, 752 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, but that's all the more reason 753 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,359 Speaker 1: to keep Chaz Green on the shelf because with him 754 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: having not played in a month, he's healthy to play 755 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 1: left tackle right now. And that's what I think you 756 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: start wondering about, and at least it's what I was 757 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: thinking about last night. You got these three guys who 758 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:00,839 Speaker 1: are um at least um in moments in trick your 759 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 1: parts of what you do, some more than others, but 760 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 1: you know, you know my point. And then you got 761 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 1: this whole thing kind of still hanging over Ezekiel Elliott. 762 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: And you've got games here coming up that I think 763 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: are extremely important, like this Atlanta game. Outside of division games, 764 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: this Atlanta game and the Seattle game at the end 765 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: of the season are very very important because those are 766 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: about tie breaks if you're working around the wild if 767 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: you're a wildcard contender, and and so these games are 768 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 1: extremely important. And now you're going into this week, heading 769 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: into game where you have to go to Atlanta, and 770 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: these guys are hurt, and the stuff with Exekula just 771 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: there's a lot going on now, and they got to 772 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: figure this stuff out and you hope that you got 773 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: all hands on deck, but you just don't know. I mean, 774 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: you know, it's victory Monday, and they just played great 775 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: against one of the best teams in the NFL. I 776 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 1: get all that, but you look at it and you're like, well, 777 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: by the end of the week, they might not have Zeke, 778 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: they might not have days, they might not have Tyring. Right. 779 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: I know Dak's playing like a monster, but I mean, 780 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: that's that's a lot of key components missing heading into 781 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 1: a road game against And I know the Falcons have 782 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: been bad the last month, but there's still one of 783 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: the NFC's marking still got a ton of talent. Yeah 784 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: that drop that you saw Julio Jones, he ain't doing that. 785 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 1: All right, let's take our final break. When we come back, 786 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: we'll get into some questions from you guys. Give us 787 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: a call.

That was also 846 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: a moment yesterday before the game began that I thought 847 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 1: was probably as cool as any moment during the game 848 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 1: as well. Tony Romo came back to the stadium. He 849 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: was back there in a working capacity for the first 850 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: time this year, working for CBS, covering the game, calling 851 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: the game um and before the game, our very on 852 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: Kimp Garrison put together this really cool video. And there 853 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 1: was actually a part in and Corey Miller, Okay, I'm 854 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 1: gonna give Coreys due two um and and there was 855 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 1: actually most part in the most of Kim. But then 856 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,760 Speaker 1: there was also this area in the end zone where 857 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys had Welcome Back nine. And it was 858 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 1: just kind of an ode, you know, a tip of 859 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: the cap to Tony Romo, who had you know, ments 860 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: welcome home? Is that I said to say something different, 861 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 1: said back, I'm sorry, welcome home, um and and so 862 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 1: so so it was a pretty cool moment. Uh, Tony 863 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,399 Speaker 1: was obvious there and it looked like he was kind 864 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:02,799 Speaker 1: of moved by the whole thing. But we're gonna show 865 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: you guys a video, Dave, I mean, I'm sorry, Ken, 866 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 1: Can you go ahead and kue that up?

It's a long way. 869 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: It was an unlikely journey that gave us a kid 870 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:31,840 Speaker 1: the number that would become synonymous with America's team nine. 871 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 1: And what followed was a journey that we all got 872 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: to be a part of. Tony liking football to a meritocracy. 873 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: You have to earn everything, and every day we watched 874 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: an undrafted quarterback earned the right to leave the Dallas 875 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 1: Cowboys for eleven years. Roll Ball runs it down at 876 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: the twenty five and kicks it, picks it up and 877 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 1: runs left at the twenty Rollball, try a pull mcnap. 878 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: Get my football man up to the forty to the fifty. 879 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: First step. Tony played for the ecstasy of winning and 880 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,479 Speaker 1: competing nome out of the score with nine hunder center. 881 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: You always knew it was a chance in twenty four 882 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: times to prove that in the fourth quarter Jason the 883 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: best he had one goal win and eighty times did 884 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: just that. You see football as a team sport. Tony 885 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 1: Roum will believe that to his core, passion, assistance, the 886 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,800 Speaker 1: love of a game are all things that he embodied. 887 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 1: Let's being the team was supposed to be right here. 888 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 1: Let's gonna win the game. In this drive, Tony rum 889 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: Will taught us all what a mental love a game, 890 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: the greatest game on earth. For that, we say thank 891 00:41:44,600 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 1: you nine added stadiums. Fuck never gone, Tony. And that 892 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 1: was just the video from the yesterday's game. Kent Garrison 893 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,720 Speaker 1: and Corey Miller put it together it was a video 894 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: about Tony Romo just kind of welcome him back, and 895 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,839 Speaker 1: it just just I thought it was a nice feeling thing, 896 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 1: just to say, we appreciate what you've done for this 897 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 1: franchise and for this team. He seemed moved by What 898 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: do you guys think? Well, I didn't watch it till 899 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,359 Speaker 1: last night, like about one apart to see from where 900 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 1: we are, yeah here, but I and I went back 901 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:50,720 Speaker 1: and watched the broadcast for the most part and listened 902 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,799 Speaker 1: to Tony and yeah, what he said was really he 903 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 1: was moved by it. You know, he's prepared for everything, 904 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:58,879 Speaker 1: and that was the one thing that kind of caught 905 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 1: him off guard a little bit. So that it was good. 906 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,800 Speaker 1: I thought he handled it well. I thought the crowd 907 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 1: gave him a nice salvation. It's a lot of them, 908 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,919 Speaker 1: you know. There were some Chiefs fans there and they 909 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 1: and they were cheering a few well, so overall it 910 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 1: was it was good. It was a nice gesture by 911 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. It was a nice job of getting that done. 912 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 1: Kent and Corey. I'm gonna say Kent though, because I 913 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: know that I saw it, can't working on it a lot. 914 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 1: So I thought it was really great. It was nice, 915 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 1: nice to have him back and to do that. I 916 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,399 Speaker 1: never think about the obvious thing in situations like that 917 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: because I'm just a jerk, and like the main thing 918 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,399 Speaker 1: I could think about, which great video, Ken, awesome job, 919 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,439 Speaker 1: you know how amazing I think you are. Um. But 920 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: you know they inlaid Romo on the video on the 921 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: jumbo tron, so you could see his reaction, and I 922 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: was like, man, that seems like it feel awkward as hell. 923 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: Ninety thousand people can just watch her and it's not 924 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 1: like five seconds. I mean he was up there for 925 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: the whole length of the video just kind of like, okay, 926 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 1: am I still on camera, like and man, all right, 927 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: everybody's looking at me. I don't really feel down with this, 928 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:05,879 Speaker 1: Like I thought he looked uncomfortable, and I would too 929 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: for that, I would be like this awkward. But you 930 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,839 Speaker 1: don't forget he is a part time golfer, and when 931 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 1: you're a golfer you have to master that look where 932 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: you kind of put your lips together like a bitter 933 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:22,279 Speaker 1: beer face kind of like yeah yeah, and he is yeah. 934 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 1: And so it's like he did that part. He did 935 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 1: it for the night, for ninety seconds. He had to 936 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: do it like eighteen times over the span of that video. 937 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: But I mean it was a nice gesture. I told 938 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: you it wouldn't come back to bite him that they 939 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 1: put that into Well, my only concern and I'm taking 940 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: you guys out a little bit behind the curtains. My 941 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:41,879 Speaker 1: only concern last week when I first heard of there's 942 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: curtains not in the stadium when I when I first 943 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: heard about this last week, my only concern was, Okay, 944 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 1: so not that this is likely to happen, but what 945 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 1: happens if you do all this and you say welcome home, 946 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 1: Tony and you're great and we love you, and then 947 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,839 Speaker 1: that goes out in terms of interception, and then Dak 948 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: kind of is trying to catch up with the chief saw. 949 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: Dan just can't quite do it. And you know we 950 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: did it before right after the end, right, I get it. 951 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: I get it. And I was just a little bit concerned, like, man, 952 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: cut this backfire. I don't think it will, but cut 953 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 1: this backfire. And Dave, I was telling you before the game, like, 954 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: it's not that the media would have been like trying 955 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: to roast Dad's done enough I think so far to 956 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 1: where people give him the benefit of doubt he's a 957 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 1: good quarterback. But it's just the side comments and the 958 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,480 Speaker 1: little jokes they think they're jokes that are just kind 959 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 1: of like sometimes I think can be a little bit unfair. 960 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,239 Speaker 1: And I was just a little bit concerned. But what 961 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 1: did I say. I don't remember, I don't listen. I said, 962 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 1: Dad's gonna ball, Like, yes, you did, sorry about it. 963 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: He did say that, and he did he balled, and 964 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: so all's good, and everybody felt great about Romo coming 965 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 1: back and tipping his cap and Dak going out and ball. 966 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,399 Speaker 1: And I'll say this, listen, I've listened to a lot 967 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:57,399 Speaker 1: of Tony's calls this year. It will make me watch 968 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 1: Jets versus Bills on Thursday Night with bad the rush uniforms, 969 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 1: because I like listening to Tony and I think he's 970 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,880 Speaker 1: really good. I think this was one of the least 971 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: entertaining games. He's really yes, and I believe and I 972 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 1: know this. Everyone was concerned about him calling out plays beforehand, 973 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,920 Speaker 1: and he didn't do it. He really didn't, not not 974 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:19,799 Speaker 1: when the Cowboys had the ball. Maybe a little bit 975 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 1: with the Chiefs, but for the most part he was 976 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,720 Speaker 1: told not to do that, and so it probably limited 977 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,839 Speaker 1: him a little bit because he now but he had 978 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,919 Speaker 1: some really great things to say. I mean, he talked 979 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: a lot about um. He said, Terrence Williams is in 980 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: his mind, one of the most underrated players in the NFL. 981 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 1: And he did say that last year. He wasn't just 982 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: saying right. And he said that about Sean Lee too. 983 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 1: He did. Did you guess hear what he said about 984 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,719 Speaker 1: Deon Sanders and what Deon Sanders said back? Yeah, not 985 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 1: what Dion said. What do you think? Oh god, Marcus 986 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 1: Peters did not make a tackle? And he said he 987 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 1: makes Deon Sanders look good a tackling that's like, I 988 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 1: don't know, that's like a playful jab at, like a 989 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:58,399 Speaker 1: three out of ten. And and well, Dion has said 990 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: many times in his life he's like, yeah, they don't 991 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 1: pay me to tackle, blah blah blah blah blah, like 992 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:06,399 Speaker 1: it's he took offense. Eon said, Oh my god, what 993 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: didn't he say? He said? He was like, he was like, 994 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 1: I I want to take the high road, but I 995 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 1: don't know where. I don't know how to find it. 996 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,279 Speaker 1: So he was basically after that, he was like, I've 997 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 1: got a gold jacket. You're two and four in the playoffs. 998 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 1: You threw this many picks, you did this, you never 999 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 1: won the big game. Like he was just like he 1000 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 1: went down everything that always hated Tony. He's always well, 1001 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 1: he was like, and he was saying, he was like, 1002 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 1: I don't know why we keep getting into this stuff. 1003 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,040 Speaker 1: But he said, I thought we had let it go. 1004 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 1: I thought we were all cool, and and then he 1005 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,920 Speaker 1: just unleashed. Yeah, so you could tell it touched the 1006 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 1: nerve like, oh yeah, like I mean a little bit. 1007 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 1: It was a dig, but a playful dig that is 1008 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: like based in some fact and and one I mean 1009 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 1: the digs Deon took her based in fact too, but 1010 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: like I was just like, damn, dude, like you have 1011 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 1: to go that. I turned it from three to about 1012 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: fifty five, Like my god. He started off with a 1013 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 1: compliment though. He was like if I saw him at CBS, 1014 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: I would shake his hand and say you're doing a 1015 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: great job, man, and then he out with the knife 1016 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 1: and start stabbing. I don't think their next interaction will 1017 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 1: not be uh, I don't be awkward, I would guess. 1018 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,799 Speaker 1: I don't think. So all right, let's let's get some questions. 1019 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 1: We got a call from Horace in Atlanta. Horse, What up? Hey, 1020 00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: what's up? Guys? You know one thing I love here 1021 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,000 Speaker 1: and am you just keep it real? Y'all need to 1022 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,359 Speaker 1: have a segment for Ama just called say keeping it real, 1023 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,319 Speaker 1: because she keeps it real. You know, every little every 1024 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 1: little thing she comes out and says she keeps it real. 1025 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 1: So I love that. Thank you know, yeah, I was. 1026 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:36,439 Speaker 1: I was really impressed with the Cowboys win. I thought 1027 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,880 Speaker 1: that they played a phenomenal game, you know, despite that 1028 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 1: one play which really just told me crazy. But I 1029 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 1: think this was one of the first complete games. And 1030 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:48,799 Speaker 1: they're gonna need to do that when they come here 1031 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: to Atlanta because that offense that Atlanta has, I mean, 1032 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan will give you a gift. He will, he 1033 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 1: will give you one to respect that, and they need 1034 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 1: to take it. But we're gonna have to cap wise, 1035 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,239 Speaker 1: we'll have to tackle and I look forward to that 1036 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: and I think that we can make a run. But 1037 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm looking at dak As being the catalyst. He is 1038 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,920 Speaker 1: what people are just this man is balling out of control, 1039 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I don't know if you all spokes 1040 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 1: on that earlier, but this guy, I know, Nick, you 1041 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:21,280 Speaker 1: mentioned it right there after the game. Dak is playing 1042 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:25,439 Speaker 1: like a man. He is playing very well. And his 1043 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,600 Speaker 1: running and his ability to to to get out the 1044 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: pocket and find people. They got to do that more 1045 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,719 Speaker 1: and I like to see that more often. Like here, 1046 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 1: which you guys think about that. You know what, thanks, 1047 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:39,240 Speaker 1: thanks hars You know, the great one's guess right a lot. 1048 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,320 Speaker 1: And I'll say this, Troy Palomalo, for one for one 1049 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 1: stretch was one of the best safeties in the NFL, 1050 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,440 Speaker 1: one of the best players in the NFL. I always 1051 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:48,360 Speaker 1: seem like when it was time to be at the quarterback, 1052 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 1: he was at the quarterback. When it was time to 1053 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 1: be forty yards down the field and coverage, he was there. 1054 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,319 Speaker 1: And he just guesses right and knows how to play. 1055 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 1: That's what a good player does. Dak guess is right. 1056 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 1: When it's time to run. He knows, all right, I 1057 00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:01,759 Speaker 1: gotta took it down and run when it's time to 1058 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,839 Speaker 1: just throw it. I mean there's occasion when you're like, oh, 1059 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: I should have run it there, But for the most part, 1060 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,840 Speaker 1: what he's choosing is the right choice. And then that 1061 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 1: that means what I've always said. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, he's 1062 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 1: doing a great job of preparing seeing it, and he's 1063 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 1: when he gets to the game it shows up. I 1064 00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 1: mean he but that's the only way to really say 1065 00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: it is that he is bawling out right now. He's 1066 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 1: doing everything right, and he's he's helping this team. I mean, 1067 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:30,719 Speaker 1: three straight wins. He's missed a handful of throws. I mean, 1068 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 1: just as a general statement, probably probably I don't know, 1069 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,200 Speaker 1: two or three per game if I had to guess, 1070 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 1: But I mean, if you go back and watch every 1071 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 1: game this year, how many bad decisions has he made. 1072 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: I mean, he's been lucky with a couple of non interceptions, 1073 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 1: but he got unlucky with I would say three of 1074 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,239 Speaker 1: his four picks are probably more a result of the 1075 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:53,359 Speaker 1: receiver than him. Like, I mean, I don't know why 1076 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 1: I could think of that was just a bad one? 1077 00:50:54,920 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 1: Was was Denver second? Yeah? Yeah? He I mean he's 1078 00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:05,319 Speaker 1: been phenomenal. I'm really not trying to poke Bryce here, 1079 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 1: but that throw he made to Bright unbelievable. That was 1080 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 1: a heck of a thing. That's and that's my point. 1081 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 1: Like I said, he didn't complete them all, but like 1082 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,400 Speaker 1: he fit that in between the safety in the corner. 1083 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:16,840 Speaker 1: He had one I think it was in it was 1084 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 1: too deaz in the back of the end zone at 1085 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 1: on one of those drives, Like he's not afraid to 1086 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 1: try to fit it between defenders, and I think that's 1087 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 1: something he gets criticized for, or did last year at least, like, well, 1088 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:29,640 Speaker 1: he only throws it to the guy that's not covered, 1089 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,240 Speaker 1: Like that's not true, Like he's not going to complete 1090 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 1: them all, but he has a willingness and a confidence 1091 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 1: to hit that or to attempt that throw, and he 1092 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:40,320 Speaker 1: hits them more often than I would say he doesn't. 1093 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: All right, real quick, before we end the show, I 1094 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 1: did want to talk a little bit about a little 1095 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 1: running here this last weekend. It was one major this 1096 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 1: one major feat in the history of running in the 1097 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 1: world by our own David Hellman, who ran his very 1098 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: first half barrathon. And the impressive part about it was 1099 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 1: not that he finished, because he could have finished a 1100 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:08,719 Speaker 1: lot slower than he did, but Dave ran pretty good time. Dave, 1101 00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 1: tell us about that experience. I mean, it's your first 1102 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:12,840 Speaker 1: time running. Tell us about the experience of actually finishing 1103 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:16,799 Speaker 1: thirteen miles um, you know race. It's I never it's 1104 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:19,239 Speaker 1: not really something that I ever set out to do 1105 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 1: but back. I remember I woke up in Philly Week 1106 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: seventeen last year feeling like slightly hungover and groggy and 1107 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,040 Speaker 1: out of shape, and I was like, I should fix this. 1108 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:33,640 Speaker 1: So I was just like, I'm gonna run a ten 1109 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,839 Speaker 1: k and I did that, and then you were like, 1110 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,400 Speaker 1: maybe you should try half marathon and I was like, okay, 1111 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 1: like running's not that bad, I guess I'll do that. 1112 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 1: And so I've spent a pretty good chunk of this 1113 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 1: year running and I ran a half marathon and I'm 1114 00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 1: really sore right now, but it was very it was gratifying. 1115 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:52,439 Speaker 1: I did a lot better than I thought I would, 1116 00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 1: to be totally honest, and did great. Y'all's y'all's encouragement 1117 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 1: and support. It has felt very nice, So thank you. Yeah, 1118 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:01,560 Speaker 1: did it really great? But I don't understand this at all. 1119 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,360 Speaker 1: I always feel like running is you're really running against 1120 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,800 Speaker 1: just one person. So, um, now you get into the 1121 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: Olympic style competition, yeah, you're competing against people. But when 1122 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:16,400 Speaker 1: I texted you any Saturday, he said Shannon Gross was 1123 00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:19,840 Speaker 1: also running. Yeah, and Shannon is just he's the worst. 1124 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 1: He's just he's not the worst. I mean he really 1125 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,279 Speaker 1: didn't train that much for it. He just kind of 1126 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,239 Speaker 1: gutted it out. And and I talked to Dave, and 1127 00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:30,120 Speaker 1: Dave was like, well, yeah, Shannon was there, and he 1128 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: smoked me. And I'm thinking, how do you get smoked 1129 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,320 Speaker 1: in a half marathon? I mean, you finished finished the 1130 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:37,720 Speaker 1: damn thing like you You won as far as I'm concerned, 1131 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 1: But I mean, like, you know, it's it's interesting that 1132 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: your competitive juices were out like that, because I would 1133 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: have been like I finished that, Dawn. I don't care 1134 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 1: when Shannon got there, you know, or anybody. You know. 1135 00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 1: I trained a lot more diligently than Shannon. And I 1136 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:52,800 Speaker 1: went to bed at like nine thirty on Friday with 1137 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,359 Speaker 1: like I had my I had my running tape on, 1138 00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 1: like you know, I had like the sounds of the ocean. 1139 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 1: Just I was trying to maximize, like I'm just in 1140 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 1: I'm in it to win it, you know, like Shannon went. 1141 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 1: Shannon was out drink until two. He barely trained for 1142 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,840 Speaker 1: this thing, and he finished like fifteen minutes before me. 1143 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 1: I think I think he kisses me. I think he 1144 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:14,359 Speaker 1: knew there was a race, and so I don't think 1145 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:16,399 Speaker 1: he went to last call. I really don't. I think 1146 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 1: he stopped about one third exactly. You know what, I 1147 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 1: gotta get in for a real I can't go one more. 1148 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 1: Some people, some people are just blessed that way, but 1149 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 1: I'm not one of them. So I was. I was 1150 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:27,360 Speaker 1: very happy with it. We don't have to spend a 1151 00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:28,840 Speaker 1: lot of time on it, but thank you' all. I 1152 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 1: would just say this, I'm glad you liked it enough 1153 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 1: to do it again, and so yeah, no, I'm to 1154 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 1: see it up and do it down, to do that 1155 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 1: one in February. If you don't get hurt and back 1156 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:43,919 Speaker 1: out this time. Yeah, that's why. Yeah, yeah, amber Amberley, Amberley, 1157 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 1: I applaud Dave's commitment because it takes a lot. That 1158 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 1: is something I would not do at all. That that's 1159 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 1: the best part about it. It's just in anything, just 1160 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 1: saying this is what I'm gonna do, and I did it, 1161 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 1: stick to it. And that's the thing David I talked 1162 00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 1: about this like, that's the great part about long distance 1163 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,719 Speaker 1: running and training for a race. It's not so much 1164 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,840 Speaker 1: the race day as much as it is the weeks 1165 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,399 Speaker 1: and weeks and weeks that you spend when you don't 1166 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:10,279 Speaker 1: want to get up and run. When you get up 1167 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 1: and run anyway and you finish and you feel great 1168 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: about it, and that's just one day out of the 1169 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 1: many days when you have to do that. And then 1170 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,200 Speaker 1: you get to race day and you feel like, man, 1171 00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 1: whatever I do today, I've already accomplished something because I 1172 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 1: was actually I was actually diligent enough to stick with 1173 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 1: the training throughout the whole problem. It was the MVP 1174 00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 1: and in your in your ears. As far as music goes, oh, 1175 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 1: I'm very particular with my playlist, um, but there was 1176 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:39,439 Speaker 1: probably a song. There was probably a moment when you're like, oh, yeah, 1177 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,440 Speaker 1: this a little little loozy for sure. Yeah, none of 1178 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,439 Speaker 1: y'all know who that is, but yeah four four four 1179 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 1: plus two two two go listen to that and don't 1180 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: tell me you don't get hype like that's the best 1181 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:52,719 Speaker 1: running song ever. All Right, y'all won't like it. All right, 1182 00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 1: I'm sure about three and a half hours of just 1183 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 1: really hardcore rap, like just not a whole lot else. 1184 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,239 Speaker 1: But it was so opposite, like, oh, yeah, will you 1185 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,239 Speaker 1: listen to gospel music? I know, like I need inspiration. 1186 00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 1: I want to hear about I want to I want 1187 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:12,080 Speaker 1: to hear about the trap house and slinging rocks. Yeah, 1188 00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:14,040 Speaker 1: that's what I want to hear about the opposite. All Right, 1189 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,279 Speaker 1: we appreciate you guys, Jonas.
