00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: guys for having me. I'm glad to be here. Um.

22
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 1: We were on the same airplane. And uh so I

23
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: know what time you landed, but I think that people

24
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: would be interested to know an athlete's day. There's there's

25
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: nothing very forgiving about the calendar when you play on

26
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 1: the road. So the plane landed about three thirty JK.

27
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: Take it from there. What'd you do? Uh? Get on

28
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: the road head back home? Uh? In McKinney, UK, got

29
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: home probably the round about four thirty. Uh, sleep for

30
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: a couple hours, up at eleven o'clock to come in,

31
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: lift run, get some treatment, get some work done on

32
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: a body. After that, went home, got a massages. Then

33
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: I'm here now. So and how do you feel? I

34
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: feel as good as I'm going to feel. I would say, uh,

35
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: you know, I wish I could have got a little

36
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: more sleep, but you know, off the mall. So I'll

37
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: get I'll get it in and do you can you

38
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: go right to sleep? One way or another? Winner lose

39
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 1: after a game? Uh? Now not really, especially not since

40
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 1: I was in pain, so I couldn't I couldn't go

41
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: right to sleep. But her Mnie heard shoulder back, you

42
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: name it. So but uh, you know, as far as

43
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: the winning and the losing aspect of of I guess

44
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: doesn't really keep me up too much because knowing that,

45
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: like I just like we just spoke about shortly, it's

46
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: week six. Uh, losing that game is is big, you know, uh,

47
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: especially since it's a rivalry. But it's not the end

48
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: of the season for us. It's not the end of

49
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: the world. We're still going to have opportunity to go

50
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 1: out there and achieve everything that we wanted to achieve

51
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: when we came into this year. So uh, you know,

52
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: that's that's that's really about it, not really putting too

53
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: much into it. You know, we're going to see them again,

54
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: and that's that's That's about all that I have. I

55
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: say every year many times, my favorite part about doing

56
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: this program is giving the audience. And by the way,

57
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you those of you who come out

58
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: on the breezy patio at the Concrete Cowboy, thank you.

59
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: By the way, Hayley, there's only two of them like

60
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: me wearing short sleeves. I know I'm barely layered though

61
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: right now are so like this guy's flexing his arm

62
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: with a short sleeve. I can't even imagine that. Yeah,

63
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: so I what I really love is, uh, the opportunity

64
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 1: to make the players three dimensionals, so you all get

65
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 1: to see them as the human beings. They are the people.

66
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: They are not just a number wearing a cage on

67
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 1: their head running around out um and so um. We

68
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 1: don't think about what they go through physically after a game.

69
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: So you're playing at eight thirty at night local time,

70
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: you play the game, everything hurts. You get on the plane.

71
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: That's real comfortable flying home right after after a game.

72
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 1: I will say, though, Christy brought me back some of

73
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: the cookies. That not just me, she brought them back

74
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: with some of the cookies. You guys get on the plane.

75
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: It's been pretty good. They are pretty good. They are.

76
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 1: Did you hear the part about his knee and his

77
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: back and there's always so much So here's the thing, um,

78
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: when you're a when you're a real young player, um,

79
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: you know it's you'd be sore and then by Tuesday

80
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: you're bouncing around. Maybe next time you practice Wednesday, you're

81
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: ready to go, So, what are you six years in

82
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: the league? Seven seven years in the leg so at

83
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: this stage of your career, you're not thirty yet r

84
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: h nah. Yeah, what day of the week normally do

85
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: you start to feel pretty good? The body starts starts

86
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: feeling good for me Friday, But Thursday is our padded practice,

87
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 1: and that's the closest you're gonna get to the game

88
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 1: before you get to the game. So you kind of

89
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 1: just mentally have to get yourself to the point where

90
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: Thursday I have to go as hard as I physically

91
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: can because this is the closest I'm going to get

92
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: to the game before I get to actually get to

93
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: the game. So but uh, you know, when we have

94
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: that day off on Friday, you know we're in the

95
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: building just doing a lot of maintenance on our body,

96
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: a lot of treatments, getting things done that we need

97
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: to get done to get us ready for that game.

98
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,119
Speaker 1: And that's the day that I really start to feel

99
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: like okay, like my legs are back on me and

100
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: you know, everything is feeling good to get me ready

101
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: for that game. But uh, Wednesday, it's a it's a

102
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: it's an extremely mental day, uh for me, and a

103
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: lot of the guys. So uh and then Thursday, you know,

104
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: when the past go on. You know, guys, you know

105
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: we have to mentally take ourselves to like push ourselves

106
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: to get to get through that day. And uh, you know,

107
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: we have a lot of a lot of guys that

108
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: you know, we we know, we know each other. We've

109
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: been around each other long enough to know if a

110
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: guy's not feeling it a day or maybe needs to

111
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: be picked up. And we got a lot of guys

112
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: that that does the picking up and you know, help

113
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: help get the rest of the guys through the practice.

114
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: Oh that's interesting. Pick up It just it just it

115
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 1: just it just depends because it maybe some days where

116
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: I need I need to be picked up. And you

117
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: got guys like like Donovan Malik, Uh that pick that

118
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: picked me up. You know, Uh, we're pretty we're pretty

119
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: close us three. So uh, those are just some of

120
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: the some of the guys that you know, if they

121
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: see me down, they picked me up. If I see

122
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: vice versa, trying to get those guys going. All right,

123
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: speaking of picking up, I just cannot forget about asking

124
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: you about this. So I believe it was after their

125
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: second touchdown. I think it was in Los Angeles when

126
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: the Rams score, d Lock got the whole defense up

127
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: and held church. And then last night, if I have this,

128
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: right after their second touchdown, uh, d Lock called everybody

129
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: up and you held church. Yeah. What what was that

130
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 1: all about? What you say to the extent you can

131
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: repeat it, I mean, just was you know, we felt like, uh,

132
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: you know, early on in that game, guys was trying

133
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: to do too much. Gods was trying to make the

134
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: big play rather than letting the big play come to him.

135
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: And uh, you know we weren't we weren't two gaps down. Uh,

136
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: you know, guys getting out of the gaps and then

137
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,439
Speaker 1: you know, the back finding that gap that you you

138
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: just jumped out of. What's gave them a couple a

139
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 1: couple of good runs and uh ultimately gave up the

140
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: touchdown run. Just trying to let guys know, like, you know,

141
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 1: if we if we do our job, you know, and

142
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 1: the play comes out where we make the play rather

143
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: than trying to chase the play, because at the end

144
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,679
Speaker 1: of the day, when you chase the play, you rarely

145
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: make the play. So especially going against a team like

146
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: Philly and you know they the things they do good um,

147
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: kind of takes away the things we do good. You know,

148
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: they play small ball. You know, they make you read

149
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: your keys, and you know you can't really tee off

150
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: on the quarterback like that, you know how how our front,

151
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: our front likes to do so. Uh, it was just

152
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: about really standing in a moment and not not trying

153
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: to do too much. All of that is so unlike

154
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,599
Speaker 1: how you've played over the last four games. Did it

155
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: surprise those of you who are the leaders when you

156
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: look up and say, what are we doing? Who are we? Yeah?

157
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 1: It did, you know, just because you know the way

158
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: we the way we see our self as a defense. Uh.

159
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: You know when you go out there and you know,

160
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: before you know it, you're down fourteen, you know, uh,

161
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: no matter where they get the ball out, if they

162
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: spot the ball at the one yard line, you know,

163
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: we feel like, as good as we are, we should

164
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 1: get a turnover or hold them to hold them to three.

165
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: And uh, just in that in that particular moment, we

166
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: weren't able to do that. So it just kind of

167
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: was like like gut wrenching that, like, this is not

168
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: this is not our brand of football, This is not

169
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: who we are as a defense. And you know. Uh,

170
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: Fortunately we were able to get out there in the

171
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: second half and start start the second half. We should

172
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: have started the game, which you would have gave us

173
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,599
Speaker 1: a much better chance to win the game. Uh. But

174
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: you know, it all just comes with it is. It's

175
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 1: it's it's part of part of learning, uh and just

176
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: showing who we are. Uh. But you know, we got

177
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: to understand that we can't we can't put ourselves in

178
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: that position. It didn't go in the halftime and have

179
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 1: these cup talks and then come out and play like that.

180
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: If we come if we come out and play like

181
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: that from the from the start of the game, we

182
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: don't even put ourselves in that position. Yeah. I wanted

183
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: to ask you about that as well. I know you

184
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: kind of just touched on it a little bit. But

185
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: what do you learn about yourself, about this defense, about

186
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: this team in a game, a physical game like Sunday's game. Uh?

187
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: You you you look around and you see you see

188
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: guys that's gonna fight to the end. Uh, you know,

189
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: going coming back out leave seventeen three. You see guys

190
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 1: that's that's not going to give up. You see guys

191
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: that when we got in that locker room, Uh, you know,

192
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: guys didn't hang their heads down. Guys were ready to go,

193
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: ready to get back on the field so we can

194
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: go out there and be who we are as a defense.

195
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 1: So you know, it was it was It was good

196
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: that we were able to do that. You know, as

197
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: soon as we got in the locker room, you know,

198
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: I just preached on this, this is when we show

199
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: who we are. You know, like everything is not going

200
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: to be how it was against the Rams where the

201
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: first third down we're scoring a touch now, or the

202
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: Giants where you're just you're just suffocating them. More to

203
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: Cincinnati where you know you're you're you're doing all these

204
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: things at a high level. Every game is not gonna

205
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: go like that. So when you do get in those

206
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: moments where you know offense is gain a momentum and

207
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: moving the ball, uh, it's a time where you just

208
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: have to put your foot down and say all right,

209
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: that's enough of that, and you know we're we're gonna

210
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: do it. We we we're here to do and player

211
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 1: out type of football. Dan Quinn has talked about the

212
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: cohesion that you guys have as a unit as a defense.

213
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: They know you talked about your three headed monster, which

214
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: we'll get to in a little bit. But do games

215
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: like Philly yesterday? How how guess how does that exemplify

216
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: the closeness, the cohesion, the chemistry that you guys have

217
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: on defense. Uh, you know, for me, it's just I

218
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: don't think it really shows much until next week, Like

219
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 1: when we get out the next week, then you see, Okay,

220
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: well this is what went on last week. Let's see

221
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: if they correct that problem and get out there and

222
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: and eliminate that issue. And so uh, I think that's

223
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: a question. That's the question I can ask. I can

224
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: answer next week. Then she knows where to fight at

225
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: that question next week. Jayron curses our guest. We are

257
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: So there's a fact I was just asking Jyron before

Speaker 1: we went on the airs or even anybody there that

259
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,119

260
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: defense still, Yeah, it's still still a couple of guys

261
00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: u in the secondary that I remember that I played

262
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: against Amani Jeff o'coulda uh one of my best friends,

263
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: he's over there now, Mike Hughes. Uh. It's a couple

264
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 1: of guys that don't familiar with. But you know, as

265
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: far as it's being excited to see see any of them,

266
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: I'm excited to get a win. Will it be weird

267
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: for you your your next I mean, for those of

268
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: you who don't know. Before he came to Dallas, Jay

269
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: Ron spent a year in Detroit and then three or

270
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: four in Minnesota. Right, so you're for the next four

271
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: games with the bye week stuck in the middle, you're

272
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: right back in the NFC North. It's Minnesota. I mean,

273
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: it's it's Detroit and Chicago here in Green Bay and

274
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 1: Minnesota there and you're you must feel like you're going

275
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: to be in a time warp or something like that schedule. Uh, yeah,

276
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: I'm I'm definitely familiar familiar with him. Uh uh cold,

277
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: very cold places, you know. That's That's something that I

278
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: remember vividly, very cold play, especially green Bay around that

279
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: December time. So I'm not looking forward to that. Yeah,

280
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: it won't be that coach, but no, it's gonna be fault.

281
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: The leaves are changing. It's gonna be great and and

282
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be great for you, especially to take

283
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 1: McCarthy back up to Green Bay and win a game. Definitely,

284
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: Definitely that one might hold a little more than me

285
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:27,479
Speaker 1: actually going to play Detroit Minnesota. Getting getting coach that

286
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: win would be will be huge. He deserves it. But

287
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: we're we got ahead of ourselves because it's it is

288
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,600

307
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: we're gonna bite, We're gonna bite, We're gonna bite an

308
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: ankle or something like that. Did you laugh? I did?

309
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: And what would that be like? Look, he's old school,

310
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: he's talking to guys like you and as a veteran,

311
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: let alone, you know, first second year. But what would

312
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: it be like playing for a coach who took that approach? Uh?

313
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: I meant you know it is it's easy to respect,

314
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: to repect the guy like that, Uh, just for the

315
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: simple fact that he's went through this league, he's played

316
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: he's played in this league, and uh, you know he knows,

317
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: he knows what it takes. So uh, you know, anytime

318
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: you hear something from from a from a from a

319
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: guy that played in his league, you know you have

320
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: to you have to open your ears and uh and

321
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: listen to him. So you know he knows what it takes.

322
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: Then I guess that got that got little guys going

323
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 1: and then also seeing them, uh you know, watching them

324
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: on a not so uh, just to just to see

325
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 1: the type of guy he is. Uh, you know, he

326
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: seems like a pretty cool guy. No, you would like

327
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: him now, he's a trip, but he but he is

328
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 1: all about it. Yeah, he is all about it. Yeah.

329
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you just kind of along those

330
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: same lines. With Mike McCarthy, it kind of feels like

331
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: he's slowly coming out of his shell a little bit.

332
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: We get bits and pieces of it when we get

333
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: to talk to him at his press conferences. Have you

334
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: noticed maybe a shift in his personality or how I

335
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: guess how does he express himself when he's around just

336
00:21:55,320 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: you guys, Uh, coach coaches, he's probably, if not if

337
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: not the best coach I've ever had. He's definitely up there.

338
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: I love I love coach McCarthy just because like the

339
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: way the way he treats us or in the building. Uh,

340
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: you know, he he he's very he's very commutative with us,

341
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: like he talks us a lot. And you know, he's

342
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: not one of those coaches that's just it's my way

343
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: of the highway. He takes inputs from his from his

344
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 1: leaders in the room and the veterans that the Zach Martins. Yeah,

345
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: so uh, just just just having a coach like that

346
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: that understands that you know this like the coaches coach,

347
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: but the players we you know, we we we have

348
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 1: to do these things. So taking our input and uh

349
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: and actually implemented into you know, whether it's scheduling or

350
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 1: practice or you know anything we may have to say, Uh,

351
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: he's all for it if it's going to help us win.

352
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: So uh, those one of the one of the main

353
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: things that uh that when I got here I didn't

354
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 1: have in a lot of other places. Uh, that that coach,

355
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: that coach definitely showed me in and it and it worked.

356
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: So you know, guys, we we all in the locker room,

357
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: we want to we want to play for him, we

358
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: want to fight for him. Uh, and we want nothing

359
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: but the best for the simple fact that you know,

360
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 1: he takes care of us, and the best way for

361
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: us to take care of him is is go out

362
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: there and get wins. So I heard something um in

363
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:30,479
Speaker 1: camp this year from Joe Whipped, tremendous coach. Basically, he coaches,

364
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: for those of you don't our coaches, the defensive side

365
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: of the passing game, but it works a lot with

366
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: the safeties. And what I didn't know was that um,

367
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 1: he and Dan Quinn were recruiting you pretty hard in

368
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: Atlanta before you came here. Yeah. Actually it was when

369
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,919
Speaker 1: it when it came down after my fourth year in Minnesota,

370
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: I became a free agent. It was a Detroit or Atlanta,

371
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I decided to go with Detroit,

372
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: decided to Detroit. But was that was that all about money?

373
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: Or it was all it was all? It was all Okay,

374
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: by the way, it's professional football. There's nothing wrong with that. Okay,

375
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: go ahead, even now in college now with an n

376
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: I L you could get play like that, big JK.

377
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 1: That's a hubcap that I like it. Well, yeah, it

378
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: was definitely all about money. Uh then uh, you know,

379
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 1: you know God, God works, God works in the sterious ways,

380
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: so you know we all end up right what we

381
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: need to be and as here and you know, trying

382
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: to bring Doom Day back. So the reason that oh okay,

383
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: now you gave me something else to talk about later,

384
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: The reason that I that I brought up the fact

385
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: that that uh, Quinn and Witt wanted you in Atlanta

386
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: is all these guys say they knew what you were

387
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: as a player, and Dan and Joe certainly had a

388
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 1: plan for you if they had gotten you to Atlanta,

389
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 1: which obviously followed along the play, But what they did

390
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: not have an appreciation for was your leadership and the

391
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: force of your personality. Where you have you just been

392
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: given an opportunity for that part of you to develop

393
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: and stand out more here than in the other places

394
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 1: you've been. Yeah, I think it just came with you know,

395
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: with me being older when I came here. You know,

396
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: I came here year six and it was you know

397
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 1: a lot of guys younger than me, rather than when

398
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: I was in Minnesota. Uh year one year, two years

399
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,919
Speaker 1: I was. I was a young guy. So it's not

400
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: really much leading I was I was doing, you know,

401
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: so when I got here, it was just was you know,

402
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 1: I was the older I was the old guy in

403
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,959
Speaker 1: the room, and you know, it just called for me

404
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: to to to be that guy that, you know, try

405
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: to pick guys up and and and and then leading

406
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: the way. Uh. You know, I played on a on

407
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 1: on great defenses in Minnesota, so I knew what it took.

408
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: So it was all just about me trying to speak

409
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: to those guys and speak that into those guys on

410
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,439
Speaker 1: you know, like the things that it takes to be

411
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,959
Speaker 1: a great defense. We have it, but you know it's

412
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: going to be more than just me. End up hearing

413
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: and talking to you guys about it. Now that you're

414
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: on the other side of that, you know, taking a

415
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: step closer into being a leader, being a veteran in

416
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: this league. What's maybe something you would tell your younger

417
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 1: self in that first couple of years in Minnesota that

418
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: you maybe wish you would have known on the back

419
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:21,199
Speaker 1: end of Uh, take care of your body, take care

420
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 1: of your body. Uh, the things out the things I

421
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: do now to make sure like I'm getting ready for

422
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: for that next game, it's light years ahead of what

423
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: I was doing in Minnesota. Nothing nothing, uh, you know,

424
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: just being a young guy, you know, finishing the game

425
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: and just knowing OK, and body feels good, I can

426
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 1: go do it again rather than you know, crehab like

427
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: taking care of your body before you have to take

428
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: care of your body. So but now it's getting old,

429
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: getting old. You know, that is God's way of showing

430
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 1: him he has a central gimm because when you're young,

431
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: you just don't even know the prehabit jest exactly exactly.

432
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: You just go you're just going with the flow. You're

433
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 1: just playing football, just playing football, and just so everybody

434
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: can kind of get an understanding of what that looks like,

435
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 1: can you just tell us maybe some of the things

436
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 1: that you're doing in that prehab versus what you're doing

437
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: in rehab or maybe post practice, postgame. Uh, prehab is

438
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: just like you know, like say I don't have an ankle,

439
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't have an ankle injury, but I kind of

440
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 1: feel my ankle like it's a bit tight. I'm gonna

441
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: get that worked on, you know, not after I sprained

442
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: my ankle. Now I want to get it worked on. Now.

443
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 1: I'm gonna work on it before I even have to

444
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 1: work on it, you know, and uh, you know, rehab

445
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: is just you know, you hurt something and now you

446
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: want to try to get it back going. Uh So

447
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: I think a prehab it's top. It's taught when it

448
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: comes to keeping your body for us, because you know,

449
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: you don't want to have to take care of everything

450
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 1: after not after you have an injury or after you

451
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: nick you nick yourself up. You want to take care

452
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: of that before that. So then you know it doesn't

453
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: even become a problem because you took carried in the

454
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 1: early stages. But if year seven JK had said those

455
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 1: things that Haley is talking about, two year two JK,

456
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,199
Speaker 1: would year two JK have said, yeah, okay, thanks old man,

457
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: appreciate I probably I probably would have said I probably

458
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: said thank you, thank you, I'll try, and probably wouldn't

459
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:28,520

Speaker 1: I kind of want to take you back something we

469
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: mentioned briefly earlier. Obviously with the NIL era kind of

470
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: going on right now. You played at Clemson. If you

471
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,239
Speaker 1: could have it n I L deal, what would your

472
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: in I L delb H. That's tough. I don't know,

473
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not I'm actually not. I'm actually

474
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: not a big fan of the n I lay I'm

475
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: not a big fan. Yeah, I was gonna say, tell

476
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: me why. Uh, I just believe that. Uh. You know,

477
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: like getting to the getting to the getting to the league,

478
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: into the NFL was like, you know, you wanted, you

479
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: wanted the money, you wanted to be in the league,

480
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: and that drove that drove you every day through practice.

481
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: But I feel like, you know, when you signed an

482
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: n IL, you got guys signing three million dollars in

483
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: I L. They're making more than what players in the league.

484
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: So like, you know, it's like that's that's that's something

485
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: that you know, I definitely believe players should get paid,

486
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: but I believe, you know, uh, let's spend in school

487
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: and then you gotta But you are are you telling us?

488
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: Are you here to tell us that top level players

489
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: who go to Clemson University to play football are not

490
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 1: acquainted with some kind of inducements to make their lives easier. No,

491
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: not that I can remember that one. But sitting on

492
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 1: those same lines, obviously, your Tigers are doing pretty well

493
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 1: this year. What's been your impressions of them in the

494
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: season that they're having so far? Uh? For me, it's

495
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: kind of it's kind of what is what it is

496
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: for us? Uh, you know, just I feel like they're

497
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 1: not even playing the best ball yet. Uh where I

498
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, games that shouldn't be closed are

499
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: a little close. Uh. You know, I'm used to seeing

500
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: when you're playing against the Wake Force and the Boston

501
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,959
Speaker 1: Colleges complete blowouts. Uh, and just right now we're winning

502
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 1: those games. But it's not it waits pretty good this year. Yeah.

503
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: I meant they were always pretty good, Okay always, so

504
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, I just believe that's still that's

505
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: still you know, as as they're going through the season,

506
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: they're getting better, and uh, I know coaches are are

507
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 1: pushing them to when it when it comes to certain games,

508
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: you should you should win certain games comfortably, like it

509
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,800
Speaker 1: should be blowouts. And you know right now, you know

510
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: that's that's not necessarily being done. But I think you know,

511
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 1: as as the season goes on, and uh, you know,

512
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: they just understand understand better that those things we get done.

513
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: Who's gonna push them in their league? Uh, it's all

514
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,040
Speaker 1: about I mean it was the same way when I

515
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: was there. Nobody really pushed us. But you know, you

516
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 1: gotta understand that. You know, when you get when you

517
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: get out of the ACC, you know you have the

518
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: Alabama was the Georgia's, the Tennessee Tennessee. Those are the

519
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 1: guys that you know, you might not get pushed by

520
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: the North Carolinas, but you know, the ultimate goal is

521
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: a national championship. Man, those are the guys you're gonna

522
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,800
Speaker 1: see in net So you have to push yourself to

523
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 1: know that this is not close to the level of

524
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 1: competition we're gonna play when it comes to college college

525
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:39,799
Speaker 1: playoff time, we had a little gusty. Neither of us

526
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: were that So were you surprised by any Do you

527
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,919
Speaker 1: keep up with college football and your spare time at all? Yeah, yeah,

528
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 1: I do. I do. Song. Were you surprised at the

529
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 1: way that the AP top twenty five shifted with that

530
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: huge upset over Tennessee Abama? Not not too not too much,

531
00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,319
Speaker 1: because I expect that, you know, especially going into it. Uh,

532
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: Tennessee was at a great offense, So when they beat him,

533
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: I expected him to jump a lot of people. Did

534
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 1: you expect him to throw the goal posts in the river?

535
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't expect that. But uh, we actually

536
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 1: watched the game. We watched the game we're in We're

537
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 1: in Philly, and you know, it was just like when

538
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: you win a game you're not supposed to win, you know,

539
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: all best off, you know, you do whatever you want

540
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: to do for that night. So have you ever had

541
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 1: a game like that? Now? Because every game we won,

542
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 1: we were supposed to win. So um, okay for those

543
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: for those folks who didn't get a chance to uh

00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 1: So what what kinds of things? Let's just start with

551
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 1: a game day wardrobe? What what kinds of decision making

552
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 1: goes into your planning a game day wardrobe? And is

553
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:19,040

554
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 1: it's weather weather. Uh. And how how I'm feeling. Some

555
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: days I might just feel like just being cool, being cozy. Uh.

556
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: Some days I might want to do do a bit more.

557
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: Oh uh, I'm just so uncomfortable with all of the

558
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 1: things that are happening in my head. Right. No, no,

559
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 1: but I can. I can respect that though, because I'm

560
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,320
Speaker 1: kind of the same way. I like I'm pretty. I

561
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: like to think I'm pretty trendy. I like to think

562
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: I'm pretty fashionable. And it does depend on your mood.

563
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 1: Some days you won't show up and you want to

564
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: wear jeans and a cute pair of sneakers. Yeah, some

565
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,439
Speaker 1: days you want to show up and wear a dress.

566
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 1: Do you have a pair of sneakers that you would

567
00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: call cute? I would probably gonna I called theseus. So, like,

568
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 1: what what? What did you wear to the game? Uh?

569
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:15,240
Speaker 1: In Philadelphia? Uh, I wore some I wore some jeans,

570

Speaker 1: some capital jeans. Uh with like uh it has like yeah,

571
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: the bones on the side of them, basically your femur

572
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: going down your leg on the outside. I actually wore

573
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 1: these shoes. Uh. How would you describe that color of

574
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 1: your shoes? It's tangerine. That's the word that I had. Yeah. Yeah,

575
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 1: so and Uh, I forgot what I forgot I wore.

576
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 1: I wore a jacket. I forgot what I forgot what

577
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 1: jacket I wore? This is this was yesterday. J K.

578
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this because this is kind of

579
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 1: a rule of thumb that I always struggled with. Are

580
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: you an outfit read Peter, or is that like a

581
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 1: no go? Because for me, I try my best not

582
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: to repeat outfits. Uh, I'm not. I'm not much of

583
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 1: an outfit repeater. Uh. But it all, it all depends,

584
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 1: It all depends, especially not like a game day. I'm

585
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: not going to repeat the outfit that in the same

586
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:24,280
Speaker 1: outfit like, I wouldn't do that because I've got pictures.

587
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 1: I probably posted the pictures. I'm not gonna wear that again,

588
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: I understand, But but what happens if you win a

589
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 1: big game in an outfit at all. I'm very superstitious.

590
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: Uh like uh, like last year, like uh the Chiefs

591
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: game when I got I had a good game, I

592
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: got my first pick. I carried that bag. I carried

593
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,320
Speaker 1: that bag for the rest of the year until like

594
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 1: the bag that I had, I wore that bag to

595
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: the rest of the year. So you know, I'm very like,

596
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 1: I'm super I'm superstitious when it comes to a lot

597
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:00,879
Speaker 1: of things. If it were for me one week, I'm

598
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: definitely going to do the same thing the next week. Now, Um,

599
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: do you know yet what you'll wear Sunday or do

600
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: you have to wait until you see how the week

601
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: goes and what you feel like I kind of I

602
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: kind of have like I kind of have like three,

603
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: like three outfits in mind, and then it'll just come

604
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: down to I'm gonna I'm gonna wear this, and how

605
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 1: do you how do you make the choice between the three?

606
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: Right now? I mean, it's it's it's all just all right,

607
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: this is how I'm feeling right now. I think this

608
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: would be good for the day. So that's really how

609
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 1: how how it comes down. And then it also depends

610
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: on it's a primetime game. This is a noon game.

611
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 1: So I'm not really thinking, Okay, let me, you don't

612
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 1: really care. I care, I care, I care. I care

613
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: to make sure I'm looking good, but not to the

614
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: extent of this is a Monday night, it's a Sunday night, Thursday.

615
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,919
Speaker 1: It's okay. That all goes into it. So the people

616
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 1: who see you mostly see you, and they know what

617
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:04,919
Speaker 1: you're gonna be wearing. You're gonna be wearing a white

618
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,360
Speaker 1: jersey and silver pants and a helmet. Now, Haley is

619
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: gonna be on camera on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. And

620
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,439
Speaker 1: do you follow the same rule if it's a noon

621
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: game as opposed to a primetime game as oho, I

622
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: think that you never know who you're going to meet.

623
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 1: That's my rule of thumb, So I do my best

624
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,800
Speaker 1: to Like when I go to the grocery store, I

625
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: try my best not to dress bummy. You know, I'm

626
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 1: not gonna wear like heels to the grocery store unless

627
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,880
Speaker 1: I'm leaving works. But I grew with me. Yeah, like

628
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: you just you never know who you're gonna see. You

629
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 1: never know who you're gonna meet, like at the airport,

630
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: like I know that that's kind of a conversation of

631
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 1: people who wear sweats versus jeans. I always try to

632
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 1: look nice at the airport because, especially coming from Miami,

633
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 1: when I just moved here, you would see everybody at

634
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: the airport in Miami. So I don't never want someone

635
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 1: to catch me lacking. So I go all out, whether

636
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: it's a noon game, a primetime game, or practice. I

637
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,800
Speaker 1: look forward to both of you getting to the a

638
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 1: I've reached where my primary interests in life are comfort

639
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: and convenience. See but you can do both. You can

640
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: be fashionable and you can be Look at that. I

641
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 1: think it goes. It goes hand to hand. It goes

642
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: hand to hand. I would never I would never encourage

643
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: someone to wear something just because it looks good if

644
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,400
Speaker 1: it doesn't feel good. I would have you ever warned

645
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:26,400
Speaker 1: something just because it looked good. I actually have a

646
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: pair of Marnie slippers that look good, but they feel terrible.

647
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 1: But you wear them. I wear them else. But we

648
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 1: were talking about you, and we're kind of we're not

649
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 1: talking about we're talking about both of you, and and

650
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: and we will give our audience here at Concrete Cowboy

651
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 1: a chance to get in on all of this. J

Speaker 1: We've talked about college. What's maybe something before we get

664
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 1: too fan questions out here, what's something maybe that people

665
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 1: don't know about you? Maybe a secret talent that you

666
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 1: have or something you do in your spare time that

667
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:48,720
Speaker 1: maybe people don't know about. Uh, I'm a pretty good bowler.

668
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 1: I love bowlder. Okay, what's your highest score? Doesn't expect

669
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,759
Speaker 1: you pretty good bowling? Well? How often you do it?

670
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: It's really it's really mainly off season thing. Uh, you

671
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 1: know when I'm when I'm not, when I don't have

672
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 1: much to do off season work out, and then man,

673
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 1: my cousins will go to the bowl in that league.

674
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 1: Do you bring your own ball or you that person? Yeah,

675
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 1: I have five, I have five my own shoes. Does

676
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 1: it make a difference? It does? It does? It does? Comfortable? Comfortable, comfortable,

677
00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: very good at bowling. Listen to this. You have bowling

678
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: outfitch to match the colors of the ball that you're

679
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:31,880
Speaker 1: gonna use. No, no, no when it comes when it

680
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,080
Speaker 1: comes to bowl and I want to be extremely comfortable.

681
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:39,400
Speaker 1: So like, just comfortable about how many different colors of

682
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: bowling balls do you all? Uh your five balls? Five

683
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 1: bowling balls, all of them are different colors, all different colors. Yeah,

684
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 1: so it's easy for me to note that, Like I

685
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,719
Speaker 1: got a ball that I like to use when I'm

686
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: when I'm going for a strike or when I got

687
00:47:56,080 --> 00:48:01,720
Speaker 1: one pin up. So it's you take all with yes,

688
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 1: So you've got like a certain ball for early frames

689
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:10,080
Speaker 1: or for yeah, I can't. This is like I said,

690
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 1: this is why I'm bad at bowling, because I just

691
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:15,080
Speaker 1: take whatever they serious. But that's how it, that's how

692
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 1: it started out, I would just go bowl and the

693
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,359
Speaker 1: balls that they had there I would use. And then

694
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,440
Speaker 1: I started getting into it more, and then I realized

695
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: that I can be a much better bowler if I had,

696
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,919
Speaker 1: you know, the right balls, the balls that I don't

697
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 1: really spend much, or balls that I use that I

698
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 1: spent a lot, and you know, it's a it's a difference.

699
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 1: It makes a big difference. It's one of them a

700
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 1: spare ball, yes, and it's one of them like a

701
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:48,799
Speaker 1: seven ten spare ball. Nah, I really it's really it's

702
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: really more just like I need I have if I'm

703
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: trying to just get a strike, Like I don't want

704
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 1: too much spin on that one, right, But like when

705
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 1: I'm going for or its opposite, when I'm trying to

706
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:01,440
Speaker 1: get a strike, I use my ball that I have

707
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: a lot of spin with because I want to catch

708
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 1: that that pocket between one and three or like a

709
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 1: file have maybe one pin up. I don't want too

710
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 1: much spin on it because I'm gonna try to just

711
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,920
Speaker 1: cast this body. There's only one of the five a

712
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 1: strike ball, no three, three of them. So it's like

713
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 1: if this is a science, like if I'm bowling, if

714
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: I'm bowling and say maybe the first two or three

715
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: frames I used this ball and I didn't cast my stripe.

716
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna use another ball, Okay, So but the first

717
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,879
Speaker 1: ball can get back in your good gracis next time

718
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 1: you go bowling. Yeah, yeah, it all depends on the

719
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 1: bowling that lle I'm madden the lane because you know,

720
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 1: a lot of lanes don't don't give you the same spin.

721
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: It's you know, maybe too much oil or something like that.

722
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:53,239
Speaker 1: So and you combine that scientific mind with a forgiving heart,

723
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 1: and I just think that's wonderful. I think something we

724
00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:59,399
Speaker 1: didn't always go all right, Joe trey Han has a mike.

725
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:02,399
Speaker 1: Let's say see what the audience was thinking about. Hey, Jr.

726
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 1: And my name is Bill. My question for years, we

727
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: know you go around in the locker room as JK. Obviously,

728
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 1: do you have any other nicknames? I'm hearing maybe of

729
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,800
Speaker 1: the freak and where did it come from? Uh? My

730
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: uncle was called the freak. My uncle was called the

731
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:24,279
Speaker 1: freak through his playing days, uh with Tennessee and uh Philly. Uh.

732
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 1: But uh another name they called me. They called me

733
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:32,759
Speaker 1: big body, uh being that on the safety and um

734
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:36,840
Speaker 1: on big for a safety. So that's another nickname. And

735
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: then obviously the JK so you gave your safety room

736
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 1: though a nickname as well, the three Headed Monster. Can

737
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 1: you explain that really quickly? It's just, uh, you know,

738
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 1: we have we have three very good safeties, uh, and

739
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,320
Speaker 1: I feel like it's the best in the league. And

740
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 1: you know, it's just it's just it's just self explanatory

741
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,960
Speaker 1: for you know, I feel like we maxed up with

742
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 1: anybody in the league when it comes to having the

743
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: the best three safety you can put on the field

744
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 1: at one time. What is cory? My question is I

745
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,320
Speaker 1: still think y'all, you know, the best defense UM in

746
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 1: the league. But my question is, what do you think

747
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,439
Speaker 1: y'all mate can just improve on UM just going through

748
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 1: you know, this week and the rest of the season

749
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: to h is there like a next elite level or

750
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 1: type tier that y'all may want to get to. Uh?

751
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 1: Uh in this in this league? In this league is

752
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:37,680
Speaker 1: it's hard to pitch a shout out? So I think, uh,

753
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: doing that against anybody is a tremendous step. But uh,

754
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 1: in order to do that, I think we have to

755
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,719
Speaker 1: take the next step as far as being accountable and

756
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 1: just understanding that we all have a unique role in

757
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,879
Speaker 1: this and doing our job the best that we can

758
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,320
Speaker 1: helps everybody. So I think that's the next step we

759
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 1: have to take in order to reach that elite level

760
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 1: and pitch to shut out this year would be one

761
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 1: of those things that that's top of the line when

762
00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:10,919
Speaker 1: you when you can do that in the NFL. Hello,

763
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:15,959
Speaker 1: j Ron, this is Rambo question. Tyler Smith last week

764
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:20,399
Speaker 1: said that on the way to Philly they were recommending

765
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: not to take family members to basically discourage them to

766
00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:26,400
Speaker 1: go to the Philly game because the fan base was

767
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 1: so rowdy. Did you discourage any family members to go

768
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 1: to Philly yesterday? I didn't. I didn't, but uh, that's

769
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,640
Speaker 1: definitely a little tough, a tough place when it comes

770
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,480
Speaker 1: to having your family there. Uh. You know, we played

771
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 1: them in an NFC championship my years and uh one

772
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,879
Speaker 1: of my years in Minnesota, Uh, the year they won

773
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,840
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, and it was it was ridiculous. It

774
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 1: was ridiculous for for the for us being there and

775
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 1: the fans that traveled, and then our family remembers that travel.

776
00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: It was. It was. It was a crazy It was

777
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 1: a crazy one, Uh, especially since they were getting ready

778
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 1: to go to the Super Bowls after beating US. Uh.

779
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 1: Very disrespectful. So I can see why why you would,

780
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 1: you know, try to discourage any of your family from

781
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:20,239
Speaker 1: from going to that game. And my name's Abby and

782
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,600
Speaker 1: I'm wondering if you think that you're the best dressed

783
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 1: on the team, who's the second best? O? Good question, Abby?

784
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 1: And where can Abbey go? Decision? How can she? Uh?

785
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 1: I would say it's probably a it's close between I

786
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,680
Speaker 1: got three other guys. I think it is close between

787
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 1: Trayvon uh, Jordan Lewis and uh Nasan Right, all defensis

788
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:54,359
Speaker 1: how about that all defensive backs? Well, I think I'm

789
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 1: the best dressed on the team, but I definitely know

790
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 1: for a fact we're the best dress position for distant

791
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 1: group on the team. Not disputable A j K and

792
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,919
Speaker 1: skin James had a quol question, Uh, as you guys

793
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 1: are foreign too. We see everything that Cooper Rush has

794
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:15,439
Speaker 1: done and Dak possibly coming back. Um, what positive things

795
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 1: can you say about the Cooper Rush experience as he

796
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,280
Speaker 1: has bought us to a place of of being pretty

797
00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:26,879
Speaker 1: in a good position to to you know, achieve uh

798
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: the things the things uh Cooper was able to do. Uh,

799
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:34,600
Speaker 1: it's things that a lot of backups can't do, especially

800
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 1: being in a position that he was in where he

801
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 1: didn't have much experience starting. You know, you have some

802
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:44,600
Speaker 1: backups that's been in the league for seven eight years

803
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,200
Speaker 1: and you know, like you look at the Geno Smiths

804
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,920
Speaker 1: where he's had tim for he was a starter, he

805
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:54,320
Speaker 1: has that experience. Coop didn't have any of that experience,

806
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 1: but when he got out on the field, he had

807
00:54:56,880 --> 00:55:00,239
Speaker 1: poison and in tough situations and was the able to

808
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 1: give us the best opportunity to win games, being a

809
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:07,360
Speaker 1: smart quarterback, knowing what he had to do, knowing the checks,

810
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:10,000
Speaker 1: knowing what he can and can't do, knowing the throws

811
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:13,719
Speaker 1: he can't make. Uh. So Coop UH just about is

812
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 1: as important as anybody else on this team. And being

813
00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:19,719
Speaker 1: at this point that we are all right now after

814
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:23,360
Speaker 1: losing Uh, you lose DAKA week one, you know a

815
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:25,800
Speaker 1: lot of people wrote us off, and you know, to

816
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 1: be week six, going to week seven and being four

817
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:30,680
Speaker 1: and two, a lot of people didn't see this coming

818
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:33,040
Speaker 1: other than the guys in that locker room. So you know,

819
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:36,439
Speaker 1: that's kudos the Coop and Uh having his opportunity, having

820
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 1: his chance and going out there and seas in a moment.

821
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:43,000
Speaker 1: If you hear the little little, almost imperceptible tremor and

822
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 1: Jayron's voice, it's because the wind has uphirt all a

823
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:51,959
Speaker 1: little chill out there. So just we've only got about

824
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,319
Speaker 1: a minute and a half left. Um. You talked about

825
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 1: the difficulty of pitching a shutout and Detroit is one

826
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 1: of the highest scoring teams in the league. Are you

827
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 1: aware that New England shut them out two weeks ago?

828
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:05,360
Speaker 1: I am aware of that. I am aware of that.

829
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:07,480
Speaker 1: I'm aware. I'm aware of a lot of games when

830
00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 1: when I see a set up, because you just don't

831
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: see that a lot in the in the NFL. Like

832
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,480
Speaker 1: I said, I've been in the league seven years and

833
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 1: I think I've been a part of maybe one or two.

834
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:21,759
Speaker 1: Uh And that's that's that's that's that's tough to do.

835
00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 1: Uh So that's a sign of of an elite defense.

836
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:29,239
Speaker 1: You're looking forward to watching that tape, aren't you. Yes,

837
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 1: I'm you know, we're gonna see what they try to

838
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 1: try to steal bits and pieces of it. Last thing

839
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 1: you mentioned Doomsday before, and long time Cowboy fans know

840
00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:44,840
Speaker 1: that was the name that was given to the Dallas

841
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:48,960
Speaker 1: defense when they first really became an elite team in

842
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:54,360
Speaker 1: the seventies. There would be no particular reason unless you

843
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 1: really were a student of your environment for someone like

844
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 1: you to know anything about doomsday. Why do you know

845
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:04,359
Speaker 1: about doomsday? And what do you know? It's just when

846
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:08,600
Speaker 1: it when it comes down to like, uh, tradition of

847
00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:13,320
Speaker 1: you know, like where where I play at, Like you

848
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 1: have the the when I played in Minnesota, the Purple

849
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,280
Speaker 1: people either, like you just know about those traditions of

850
00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:22,440
Speaker 1: guys that did the same things that you're trying to do. So, uh,

851
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,160
Speaker 1: you know, being here and trying to be that elite defense.

852
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 1: You know the guys that did it before you. So

853
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,000
Speaker 1: that's something that that's the reason why I know about

854
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 1: it and just being a being a part of the

855
00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:34,440
Speaker 1: a part of something that we're trying to achieve. You know,

856
00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:38,800
Speaker 1: you have the Bears that had a great defense. Curse

857
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:43,080
Speaker 1: your night, everybody. This has been a production of Dallas

858
