As a matter of out 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:17.199 you you folks out there, you go google doctor Frank Ryan. 0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:20.759 There you go, all right, And this is a. 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:25.000 Victory Monday here inside the SWBC podcast studio, and this 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:29.880 is mixed shots. Bill Jones, Everson Walls, the former Cleveland Brown. 0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:31.279 Put that. 0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:34.200 Almost forgot that? 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:40.240 And yes, how about them Cowboys. That's how you open 0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:43.200 a season. And I can't believe that I picked and 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:47.280 you picked Mickey a twenty three twenty win. But what 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:48.639 was your what was your score? 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:49.280 Twenty? 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:51.960 Yeah, Now we all had it close, but you know, 0:01:52.280 --> 0:01:52.960 we think. 0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:57.080 We had the right winner. There's not a lot of 0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:00.480 people out there that had the right winner. As a 0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:03.279 matter of fact, the guys in the Morning News went over, 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:05.760 did they really no one picked the Cowboys doing? 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.240 They are ready for the collapse. 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:10.280 They're on collapse. 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:14.000 Wow, oh god, they can't wait for what that happened. 0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:15.920 You know that they thought it was all set up 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:16.280 for that. 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:19.040 Dak didn't have his contract at the time going into 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:23.359 Camp Seed. He didn't have his contract. I meant sign three, 0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:26.400 zekeeall Zeke Elliot's coming. 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:28.200 Back's gonna show up on crutches. 0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:31.519 I thought Zeke was like thirty seven years old. I 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:33.560 didn't know he was so young the way they talk about. 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:35.600 And Cleveland was gonna win the Super Bowl. 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:39.320 The defensive team of the year. 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:42.080 You know, have tried number one defense in the league 0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.120 last year, number one past defense. Now, having said that, 0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:49.160 the Cowboys didn't put up juggernaut numbers on offense, but 0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:52.040 that's what makes you feel even better about that win 0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:55.919 is the Cowboys didn't play particularly well and still blew 0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:56.440 them out. 0:02:56.400 --> 0:03:00.480 The second half. Yeah, was disappointing. Dak even said it. 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:04.959 Mike said it that it got sloppy. My understanding. He 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:07.000 was not real happy. 0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:07.480 During the game. 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:10.320 A lot of mistakes were being made, especially in the 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:13.959 second half. But you're up twenty seven to three, and 0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:17.519 I don't know if you relax as a player or what. 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:22.359 But after Turpen's punk return for the touchdown, I'll tell 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:26.760 you what, there were not many happy people in the stans. 0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:31.560 They were quiet games. They were leaving quiet games. Midway 0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:33.000 through the third quarter. 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:35.680 Well probably right after that pump return so early in 0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:36.400 the third quarter. 0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:39.360 All of a sudden, I realized the seats were orange 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:40.200 in that stadium. 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:40.680 You know. 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:43.400 But in this league there when you get up twenty 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:48.000 seven to three, usually it stays around that number, unless 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:51.920 you're the Nordland Saints playing the Carolina Panthers. Theeven to 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:53.760 ten and by the way, that's the next opponent. 0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:54.840 Better watch. 0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:59.600 That gets you your attention down the hallway here for 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.600 the co which is that works out well getting their attention. 0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:05.760 Don't get full of yourself. After a thirty three seventeen 0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:09.200 win over the Cleveland Browns that came complete with a 0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:13.480 what's been reported as a four year two hundred and 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.880 forty million dollar contract for your franchise quarterback. 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.240 And I understanding it, it's going to come in a 0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:24.040 little bit less than that. So but we're we're mincing millions, right, 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:25.120 what's the difference time? 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:26.440 What it's about these days? 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:31.080 Fifty seven or sixty? Right, what's the difference if the 0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:34.680 whole thing's guaranteed or just two hundred and thirty one 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:36.240 million are guaranteed? 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:39.039 One million more than that quarterback for Cleveland guy? 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:42.520 Yeah, this coount count always has. 0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:44.320 I did think that was the first thing I thought 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:46.760 of when I heard two hundred and thirty one million guaranteed. 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:48.480 I said, well, you got to get more than the 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.760 guy that's playing quarterback from the opposing team today. It 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:53.039 was two hundred and thirty million. 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:57.920 For Shawn Watson, right, yeah, and I bet after that performance, by. 0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.520 The way, and this gets in to just the difference 0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:05.200 and when you look at the young players that in 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:10.160 their first NFL game stepped up and played yesterday. I 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:13.560 went back and looked at the Deshaun Watson trade. They 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:17.560 not only got Deshaun Watson in that trade, but they 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:21.800 gave up not one, not two, but three first round 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:25.600 draft picks. A couple of thirds and a fourth, and 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.520 I thought after that game, I thought you could really 0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:32.040 tell the lasting effect of the Watson trade. Forget how 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:36.520 Watson played, but the makeup of the Browns team. I mean, 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:38.400 they don't have didn't have a first round pick this year, 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:42.719 and their second round pick had domestic violence allegations whatever, 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:47.120 and so he not playing either. And you can tell 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:49.800 the difference of the in the young talent on both 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:50.360 of the teams. 0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:57.800 The Cowboys had eleven players making their Cowboys debut and 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:03.080 six players making their NFL debut, and with three of 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:10.640 them starting, and possibly you probably can count all right, 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:16.480 our man, Isaiah, you probably can count Demarvian Overshown as 0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:19.000 a starter because when they went to Nickel, he was 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:23.680 the linebacker, not Leophile, and he had an amazing, amazing 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:28.560 And the Cowboys were criticized because they only signed basically 0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:37.400 three veteran free agents in UH when free agency began. Well, 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:41.200 one of them just happened to be Eric Kendricks, and 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:44.719 I think he's got some game left. By the way, 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:47.680 he would have been the player of the game by 0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:49.560 most estimates. 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:54.159 Sex an interception, a past defense. 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:58.240 Nine tackles, and it was the first two SAC game. 0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.719 How about this first two act game since twenty sixteen 0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:05.880 when he was with the Vikings with ZIM and it 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:10.960 was against the Packers and Mike McCarthy, Oh wow, McArthur goestakes. 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:16.840 You know, it seems like he's catching on pretty quickly 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:18.400 to that defense. 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:22.680 He had a lot to learn about that. 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:27.840 Zeke had a touch a touchdown, by the way, the pick. 0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:31.000 To click, the pick to click, Yeah, how about it. 0:07:31.640 --> 0:07:34.040 I did some standards and he didn't get near one 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:38.320 hundred yards forty nine yards from scrimmage. Do I get 0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:41.119 credit for a pick to click because of Zeke scoring 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:41.679 a touchdown? 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:42.760 That's a plus? 0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.400 Do I get credit for Diggs interception? 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:45.880 Yeah? 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:49.160 And shutting down and right shutting down? 0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:50.040 Uh? 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:54.840 You had Dak with very hundred first half, very good. 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:58.680 Hey first he got he no that clicked even before 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.880 the game started. Yeah, right, it has a ten twenty 0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:02.680 Dallas time. 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:05.800 Yeah, you win, you win. 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:10.040 So when he came out for early warm ups, like 0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:12.840 before they put their uniforms on or whatever, and he 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:15.000 had his ear pods in, but he came by me 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:20.400 and he's singing, right, and I go, I'd be singing too, 0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:23.320 But he didn't hear me, right, And I asked him 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:25.360 after the game, I said, so, what were you singing? 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:28.600 He goes, I don't know whatever was in my ear pods. 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:30.760 I wasn't singing because of the contract. 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:33.520 I said, well, you should have been just like that, 0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:36.680 all right, But before we'll dive in more so much 0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:39.880 to unwrap. I do want to say this so because 0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:43.760 you mentioned Eric Kendricks and the it was tweeted out 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:47.480 about Kendricks and probably in the game notes. With his 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:52.600 interception and two sacks, the third player in franchise history. Okay, 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:56.280 but stop, no, no, no, to record two sacks and 0:08:56.360 --> 0:09:00.280 an interception in the same game. Okay, it's as the 0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:06.280 first since Tommy Haynes in nineteen eighty seven. Hi, Everson, 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:08.959 do you recall it Tommy Haynes who played for the 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:11.920 Cowboys in nineteen eighty seven? And when at first, as 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:14.440 soon as I saw nineteen eighty seven and I saw 0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:17.200 Tommy Haynes, I said, I've never heard of Tommy Haynes 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:19.920 in nineteen eighty seven. Is the reason I've never heard 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.400 of Tommy Haynes because he was a replacement player. 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:26.319 There you go, I've told them you cannot do not 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:32.319 do not look at eighty seven for stats because of 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:36.720 those things are in irrelevant because they were in the replacement. 0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:39.400 Right, So Tommy Haynes is somewhere going. 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:44.319 I looked him up. I looked him up, and nothing 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:49.040 against Tommy Haynes. Okay, who apparently went to USC. I 0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:50.520 assume he played at US. 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:51.559 City ever played in the NFL. 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:54.040 As old that were real. The only three games he 0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:57.640 played in the NFL were the in the strike year 0:09:57.640 --> 0:09:58.280 in eighty seven. 0:09:58.600 --> 0:09:59.840 So I bet he's a cowb. 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:04.040 So Eric not now after we're saying this, Okay, if 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:12.040 he's listening. So Eric Kendricks an interception, two sacks, the 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:17.040 second player in franchise history. The first to do it 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:21.360 was Jim Jeffcoat in nineteen eighty five. You go there, 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:22.800 you go, that one counts. 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:29.959 Look the defense, the defense, The defense was impressive. And 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:34.400 welcome back Mike Zimmer Right. Plus I heard he wasn't 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:38.040 even happy after during the game, right, he was staying 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:48.160 on him. At halftime, the longest play Cleveland had was 0:10:48.280 --> 0:10:55.080 eight yards a run and a pass reception. They only 0:10:55.240 --> 0:11:05.120 had thirty thirty five say it, right, hey on Their 0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:10.960 total yards at halftime was fifty four and they had 0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:14.240 thirty five yards rushing at the end of three quarters, 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:16.960 so they ended up with ninety three, but. 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:19.480 A lot of it came Hey, I was keeping tracked 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:22.640 in the fourth quarter. It through eight possessions of this game, 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:27.000 the Browns had forty five total yards and one first down. 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:27.760 One first It was. 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:31.640 After the first possession and the punt return by Cavante Turpin. 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:35.000 The total yards for the Browns was forty five and 0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:36.360 they had one first down. 0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:40.160 They ended up two of fifteen on third down the 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.599 entire game. Entire game, two of fifteen, two hundred and 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:46.600 thirty yards, but most of it came in the fourth quarter. 0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:50.440 And one of the possessions they had that they gained yards. 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:57.960 It was the goofy fifth down play when they they 0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:03.000 they basically ruled he was short on fourth down Cowboys ball. 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:06.800 The Cowboys run a play and it was like, oh no, 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:12.439 that was that that fourth down counted? After the Cowboys 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:16.240 ran a play, right, didn't they They came. 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:20.880 Out field it was it was third down, was third 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:23.400 but the Cowboys offense came down, came out on the 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:27.160 field right after the incompletion in the end zone. 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:31.520 But they had run a play on fourth down right. 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:35.280 The Browns did, yeah, and then they said that play 0:12:35.320 --> 0:12:38.920 shouldn't have watching it on television. It was it was 0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:42.920 totally confusing to us because it was it was evident 0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:46.640 to me watching on television, at least I thought I 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:48.520 wasn't paying attention to what they were saying on the 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:51.079 broadcast or anything, but it looked like he got the 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:53.680 first down, and so when my I wrote it down 0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:56.960 as a first right, okay, But apparently in the stadium 0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:58.920 it wasn't conveyed that. 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:02.160 He got the first no, because it was fourth down 0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:06.400 on the sticks right, And then they ran a play 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:11.120 and then they counted that as first down in completion. Unbelievable. 0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:15.400 And on the on the sixty six yard field goal 0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:21.520 number one, they started the forty second clock as soon 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:25.720 as Tolbert got up from being out of bounds. And secondly, 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:29.640 the umpires standing over the ball while they were running 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:34.400 their eleventh player on the field, which they're not responsible 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:38.840 for doing that. The Cowboys put their their kicking team 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:42.640 out there, they had time to make their substitution, and 0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:46.920 he stayed on there till there was eight seconds left 0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:51.439 before he released the ball, and then they thought that 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:54.440 they had put more time on into. 0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:57.360 Which is why they didn't call time out right sixty 0:13:57.400 --> 0:13:58.360 six yard field goal. 0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:02.920 He made it from seventy seventy and you could hear 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:05.920 they were two seconds behind. I mean when the twenty 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.920 five second clock or whatever clock ran out. 0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:12.200 I must admit I was impressed. 0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:17.760 And you know, I feel like the father that you know, 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:20.440 told his son what to do, and he went out 0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:25.120 and did it perfectly. In this game, you know, offensively 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:30.600 did okay. Don't care if you do okay offensively. This 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:34.760 team needs to have what they did yesterday and a 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:38.160 complete team. That's what they need to have. I've always 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:41.600 talked about it. I get tired of these guardian numbers offensively. 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:43.640 I get it that you're gonna get your money because 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:47.040 you're throwing these touchdowns. Somebody's gonna get his money because 0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:48.120 he's catching these touchdowns. 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:48.640 That's great. 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.120 Just come through when I need you to come through. 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:53.720 I don't need you to blow anyone out. I don't 0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:57.080 need you to over impress anyone. I need our defense 0:14:57.160 --> 0:15:02.240 to go out and keep the hounds at bay. That's 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.480 what I need my defense to do. I need my 0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:10.480 special teams to hold everyone up to not mess up 0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:15.560 with bad penalties to keep the field position in our favor, 0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:18.880 and we do more than that. We're over the top 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:21.360 because we have one of the best field goal kickers. 0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:21.680 In the game. 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.200 Offensively, you need to play off of us, just like 0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:27.480 I always talked about, this is what I need you 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:31.840 to do. And I never saw stress, and that probably 0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:35.000 along the coaches a little bit. They just never showed 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:39.160 any stress during the game. And that may have given 0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:41.880 off a lack of days aical look to the coaches, 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:47.720 but they were never threatened. Boying games like this on 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.680 the road and you played against the number one defense 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:55.800 in the NFL, I say, you can't complain about much 0:15:55.960 --> 0:15:59.720 in regards to your attitude when you went out there 0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:02.000 and play on the road against a team that has 0:16:02.160 --> 0:16:06.240 extremely high expectations. Now, something could happen after this with us. 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:07.840 I don't know what's gonna happen next week, all of that, 0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:10.000 But what I do know is we went in there 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:11.880 ready to play for yesterday for. 0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:16.880 One week and they and they basically said, hey were 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:21.720 the Cowboys, right, not this national narrative about them finishing 0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:26.520 eight to nine, and and who knows, who knows, But 0:16:26.680 --> 0:16:30.200 for one game it was like we got some talented 0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:31.360 players for this team. 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:32.080 That's right. 0:16:32.440 --> 0:16:35.240 And this defense did what they should have done against 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:37.920 an offense that lost three offensive linemen. 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:43.160 Think about think about all the time spent and yards 0:16:43.400 --> 0:16:47.200 of words written about how they're going to stop a 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:50.040 Marii Cooper. I had to check a couple of times 0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:53.840 to see if he was on the field, had two catches. 0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:57.040 It's a team game, dude, This is a team game. 0:16:57.200 --> 0:17:00.720 Our defense came out there as a team. Everyone did 0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:01.520 what they had to do. 0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:04.320 Put pressure on the quarterback. Now you got the wide 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:07.680 receivers covered. They can't score, they can't move the ball. 0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:11.680 Offense took their time. They ended up scoring in timely fashion. 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:14.160 It's a team game. 0:17:14.760 --> 0:17:16.639 What was the weather like in Cleveland yesterday? 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:20.680 It was unbelievable. It'll never be better for how bad 0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:25.880 was the wind? The wind was strong, Okay, and that's why. 0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:28.480 That's why Deshaun Watson's passes were going. 0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:32.760 Yeah right. The wind was always in his face no 0:17:32.840 --> 0:17:34.200 matter what direction he was going. 0:17:34.359 --> 0:17:37.640 Actually, he did better throwing into the wind. 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:42.320 Than with it. Either he was throwing the ball away 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:45.919 a lot, yeah, or something was going on there, because 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:49.879 I don't recall a game in what seemed to be 0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:53.360 pristine conditions where so many balls were thrown out of bounds. 0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:56.720 And they'll never play on another field grass field that 0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:59.520 was in such great shape. Nice, which by the way, 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:01.640 they're going to tear it up because of Billy Joel 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:05.440 Concert is next on the field and so they're ripping 0:18:05.520 --> 0:18:07.879 it up afterwards and putting down new side. 0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:10.359 That's smart if you can believe that. 0:18:10.520 --> 0:18:12.600 But it was like a putting green. I mean, the 0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:16.720 field was great, which helps the kicker, right because your 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:20.440 cleats don't drag through some grass or whatever. 0:18:20.840 --> 0:18:24.360 Well it's not too soft, yeah, you want ferns. Yeah, 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:24.960 And it was. 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:28.720 And speaking of Aubrey's field goal that he did make 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:33.160 from sixty six yards, which matched the preseason sixty six yarder, 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:36.399 I was disappointed that the broadcast crew did not realize 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:38.560 he had made a sixty six yarder in the preseason. 0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:42.800 They didn't they they Kevin Burkhardt made the reference that 0:18:42.960 --> 0:18:46.639 in the preseason he's connected from around sixty or whatever, 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:49.280 but he didn't have precisely that was the exact same 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:53.359 distance as his sixty six yarder in Las Vegas. 0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:56.199 And they needed to also point out that the record 0:18:56.720 --> 0:18:59.240 the ball bounced on the crossbar to. 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:02.600 Get Tucker's justin Tucker's record, and. 0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:09.680 Well, well not he would have. The preseason doesn't really count. 0:19:09.760 --> 0:19:14.600 The preseason doesn't count. But had that one, had it 0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:17.160 had not been a delay of game penalty, that would 0:19:17.200 --> 0:19:18.920 have matched the longest. 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:22.520 And it was good from seventy where but was it 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:23.600 good from seventy one? 0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:29.200 Well, I don't know, because cross they had They had 0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:31.480 Aubrey still out there to kick a seventy one yard 0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:34.879 after the penalty, and then they decided better of it, 0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:37.440 which I think was the wisest season because of the 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:38.120 return guy. 0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:41.840 We don't want Auburn Alabama to play, say, initially, initially, 0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:43.960 I don't think I look at it like this. 0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:50.240 You don't want your kicker exerting himself consecutive, You don't. 0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:52.800 You just don't want It's like you know, you do 0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:56.199 polevall after a while, balls, you're not going to get 0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:57.040 anythgory that. 0:19:57.320 --> 0:19:59.360 But the only way Cleveland was going to get back 0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:02.320 in that game was if something crazy happened where they 0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:05.120 had a return of a seventy one yard field goal 0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:06.920 and now, all of a sudden, the twenty to three 0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:10.600 halftime lead has cut to twenty to ten and a 0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:11.400 two ball game. 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:13.200 See I think if you have Mike tom or not 0:20:13.280 --> 0:20:14.600 that he could trip him up on the side. 0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:18.720 I think, I think if you're in a desperate situation, 0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:21.760 you go ahead and try it. Of course, but they weren't, 0:20:22.040 --> 0:20:24.400 and there was no sense making a mistake and letting 0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:27.640 them back in the game. And when they called time out, 0:20:28.080 --> 0:20:31.200 they put the return guy in the end zone. And 0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:35.800 then it was like, remember Robburn, Alabama, better. 0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:36.280 Not do well. 0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:38.280 One thing I can say, this is the kind of 0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:42.120 of game that you want to take on the road 0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:43.359 with you everywhere you go. 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:46.080 You want this type of effort to. 0:20:46.240 --> 0:20:49.040 Travel and then you would be four and five on 0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:50.359 the road for the seconds. 0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:53.920 Ran the ball well enough, not great, but well enough 0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:59.920 that they had to respect it and ceedee. Lamb didn't 0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:02.960 looked like he missed all of training camp. 0:21:04.359 --> 0:21:06.840 He looked exactly the way I expected, right, And. 0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:10.359 They supplemented the running game with him. He had a 0:21:10.640 --> 0:21:13.080 that was a preer high twenty five yards of rushing 0:21:14.960 --> 0:21:19.879 and they used Brandon Cooks right, and we sound like. 0:21:20.520 --> 0:21:23.000 Were geniuses last year. This is the last week. 0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:26.040 This is on the touchdown. On the touchdown pass to Cooks. 0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:31.879 They lined up three to that side. Both Lamb and 0:21:32.240 --> 0:21:35.960 Cooks were in the slot and Lamb took some people 0:21:36.040 --> 0:21:39.720 with them with left man coverage with the safety and 0:21:40.560 --> 0:21:43.600 Dack threw the ball way before he broke and that's 0:21:43.680 --> 0:21:45.160 why he was so wide open. 0:21:45.880 --> 0:21:48.320 Uh so, yeah, they were expecting his hot to be 0:21:48.520 --> 0:21:52.080 the the two inside routes yes, run by the other 0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:55.920 two receivers, and instead the hot was thro deep because 0:21:55.920 --> 0:22:00.600 they flag the cooks and the safety was or of found. 0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:03.440 Which which is a connection that we failed on last 0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:05.560 year as well at the end, but not early. 0:22:06.040 --> 0:22:11.359 I'm telling you. Cooks was really good in training camp practices. Uh. 0:22:12.040 --> 0:22:15.080 They they had a great connection going. 0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:18.119 So archer, the archer is on target. 0:22:18.320 --> 0:22:18.719 That's right. 0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:24.280 That yeah, he's the that's the cher. Yeah yeah, all right, 0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:28.920 when we come back, this is the social media post 0:22:29.240 --> 0:22:31.639 of the morning. I've got it for you when we 0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:32.760 come back in just a moment. 0:22:32.800 --> 0:22:37.000 On Mike shots, Miller Lite is brewed with great taste 0:22:37.080 --> 0:22:38.080 and only great tape. 0:22:38.200 --> 0:22:40.560 The Miller Brewing Company would like to issue a correction. 0:22:40.840 --> 0:22:43.280 Miller Lite is brewed to be less feeling. What are 0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:44.000 you doing here? 0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:45.400
