Hopefully it doesn't go down that way. 17 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: I mean, the food's gonna be good regardless, I know, 18 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: but you know what I'm saying, Yeah, I know. Yeah. 19 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: For those that feel sorry for us that we don't 20 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: get to have Thanksgiving dinner at home. Don't like the 21 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: food at the stadium pretty freaking good. I'm not complaining. 22 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: We will enjoy dinner and hopefully we will enjoy a 23 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 1: good football game. Let's talk first about injuries, though. Catt 24 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: was at two players that did not practice yesterday late 25 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: in Vanderesh, which was expected, Antoine Woods as well. What 26 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: do we know about Woods? Because I think we all 27 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 1: agree Vanderesh isn't playing this week. See there's Woods, Okay, 28 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: So Woods? Is that a what's his injury? Mcl? Mcl? 29 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: Because he looked pretty bad, Dave. I think you were 30 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: walking on me when we were getting off the plane 31 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: last week Sunday night. I guess it would have been 32 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: Monday morning, and he didn't look like he was walking 33 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: very well at all. Is this a long term thing 34 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: for him or is this just kind of a week 35 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: to week Well, he already did this in Week two 36 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: and I think it cost him. He was out until 37 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: the Packer game, I believe, so week two he was 38 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: out for the Dolphins and then the Saints after that. 39 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: So I mean, you're probably talking a minimum of this game. 40 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: But the fact that they have you know, they're not 41 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: on a long week they don't get that many bye 42 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: week because the Bears is Thursday. I would guess he'll 43 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,839 Speaker 1: miss both of these games and then get the mini 44 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: bye week and he gets the Mini by and so 45 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: I'm circling the Rams game for him. But we'll see 46 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: the guys that were limited. Talk to me about kind 47 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: of where they are. You got Lyall Collins, Jeff, Zach Martin, 48 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: Connor Williams. The expectation is that in a normal week, 49 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: you'd feel like they were doing pretty well, but on 50 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: a short week, how do you feel about it? I 51 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: think they're all available, yeah, Zach Martin. I think it's 52 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: gonna be the issue there, not not to play, but 53 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: just how he gets himself ready, because I mean he's becoming, 54 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: you know, one of the older guys. And we saw 55 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: this week, you know with Tony Romo five years ago, 56 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: where he was getting himself ready every Sunday to play, 57 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: but when he had to play the Thursday game, he 58 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: was terrible. And that happened again in the next year 59 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: on a short week, and so you wonder what these 60 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: back injuries and what they're doing to manage it. You 61 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 1: hope that you know, in in four days they can 62 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: get it done. I think it'll be fine. But I'm 63 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: just saying, well, he's gonna play, but we'll see if 64 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: he plays well. I think there's a guy that weighs 65 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: three hundred and forty pounds across from them that gets 66 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: seven sacks. Every football player I've ever asked about it 67 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: says like you're really only starting to feel like yourself 68 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: by Thursday, and that's the day that these guys have 69 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: to play. So amazing. Yeah, it is, but I think 70 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: they'll all be in uniform, even Jeff. He was the 71 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: one I was worried about. But I think he's trending 72 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: in the right direction too. But they're probably not gonna 73 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 1: be feeling great. Yeah, but it is what it is 74 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: because the league likes ratings. Well. Good thing is. I 75 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: know the Cowboys have been doing it since nineteen sixty. 76 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: I know our sixty seven. I just I hate Thursday football. 77 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: I think it's it's not good for players. But do 78 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: you watch it, of course, and that's why they do it, 79 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: all right, I know I know why they do it, 80 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: and I know it's not going to change. I just 81 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: think it's stupid to claim you care about player safety 82 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: and make everybody play on Thursdays. I just don't agree 83 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: with it. Well, we will be out there on Thursday, 84 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys will be playing, and hopefully these guys will be 85 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: prepared to be able to play even on a short week. 86 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the inactives, though, I think we've already 87 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: mentioned Lake Vandersh Antoine Woods. If you go through the 88 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: list of the guys from last week that we're inactive, 89 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: it looks like you'd have one one of those guys 90 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,919 Speaker 1: that could come up. I'll read those names for me 91 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: and tell me which guy you think should actually come up, 92 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: because you'll have an extra spot. You've got Cedric Wilson, 93 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: Devin Smith, Donovan Wilson, Joe Jackson, Brandon Knight, Tristan Hill, 94 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: Tristan Hills coming up for Antoine Woods. Is that it? 95 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: That would be the only one because last week did 96 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,799 Speaker 1: that was the list and you and now you're adding 97 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: Woods to the inactive. I probably would put Donovan Wilson. 98 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 1: I would think if he's healthy, he might come up 99 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: over maybe Josh Jones because of the because of heath. Yeah, 100 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: well and he was over Josh Jones or I can't 101 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: even remember the guy's name. Avonte Burton, Burton music corner. Um, 102 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: I'm surprised you keep he's active. I know he's coming back, 103 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: but it's like even him hurting his shoulder again in 104 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: that play, it just looks so so nasty to hit, 105 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: you know, and that that's an area that you're constantly 106 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: hidden when you're playing that position. Both shoulders too, yeah, both. 107 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: So I don't know, I just I feel bad for him. 108 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: It's classic situation. So yeah, well there was surly when 109 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: he was asked about today, was like, do you learn 110 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: anything else about him this week? Because I didn't learn 111 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: anything about him? Long pause and then like that I 112 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 1: didn't already know. It was kind of like like I 113 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 1: thought it was kind of you know, yeah, I guess 114 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: I can see what you're saying there, or why Garrett 115 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: is so uptight. He's Yeah, he's been. I mean he's been. 116 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: His boss is just throwing him out there. Honestly. I 117 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 1: don't know if thats as much of it as he's 118 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: just they're not winning like they probably thought they would be. 119 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: I mean, that has him out there, Yeah, but he 120 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: probably that's probably there's probably nothing that he thought wasn't 121 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: being like he you know, when you're not performing right, 122 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: and so when you're not when things aren't going well 123 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: at work, it doesn't take your boss saying anything. You know, 124 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: are things aren't good? You know things it No, it 125 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: doesn't help, but didn't say it doesn't make it anything. 126 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: Like it's already bad because you're already like as a 127 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: matter of fact, sometimes you're probably sitting there thinking, I 128 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: know he's I know he's thinking that I'm screwing this 129 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: up and he's not saying things. I wonder what he's thinking. 130 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: Then when he comes out and says it, then at 131 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: least you know, right, And I think I'm trying to 132 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: put myself in this position, and I'm like, you know, 133 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: if I'm like, uh, it's been rough, Dave, like I 134 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: know I'm not doing well, but yeah I need to 135 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: pick it up. Like I think i'd feel better if 136 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: you were like, look, Dave's got this long track record 137 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: of doing well for us. He's gonna be fine. Like 138 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: if you if I heard you saying like, yeah, he's 139 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: screwing up, man, like that would ruin meetings that you're 140 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: not in, so you wouldn't know that. That's a good point. Wow, thanks, well, 141 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: all right, thanks nervous, right, thanks, y, No, that's my point, like, 142 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: I don't think that I don't think that Jason doesn't 143 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: think that when he's six and five, with the team 144 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: that he has and the expectations coming into this season, 145 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: I don't think that he believes that when Jerry and 146 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: Stephen and maybe even Will are sitting around talking about 147 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: the state of the team, that his name isn't coming 148 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: up and there aren't things that are being said that 149 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: may not be favorable, right. I just but it's not 150 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: what he's doing, though, But what he's doing, and I 151 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: said this earlier today, and I'm not I'm not saying 152 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: that it's a bad thing. I think Jerry's trying to, 153 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: you know, turn over every stone. But he is Jerry 154 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: creating a distraction this week, Yes he is. He's creating 155 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: a distraction for this team. Do you think so? Yes? 156 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: I mean he's going on NFL Network and saying those 157 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: things and on the radio, and he didn't back down 158 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: for what he said on Sundays saying he's being as 159 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: harsh as he's ever been. And when in the locker room, 160 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: we're not talking about these linebackers and for the Bills, 161 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: we're talking about what Jerry said, and Jason Witten's asked 162 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: about Jerry and Jason Garrett's been asked about Jerry. So yeah, 163 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: he's create hating it, but that's that's I mean, he 164 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: sat around long enough and not said it. Maybe that 165 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: he's like, what else can I do? You know what 166 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: I was thinking, sorry, what I was thinking this morning 167 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: as I was getting ready. I don't know why, but 168 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying you fired the guy right now 169 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: or anything like that. I know his contract and it's 170 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: coming up. But I was going back and thinking of 171 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,239 Speaker 1: Jerry and the way he's handled things and how he's 172 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: fired other coaches just kind of without hesitation in in 173 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: the history of different coaches, and the way that he's 174 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: gone about it. I'm like, Wow, I wonder what it 175 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: is that hasn't gone him to that point where he's like, 176 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm kind of fed up with this. 177 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: I need a different coach because he's done that in 178 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: the past. But yet with Garrett, he stuck with him 179 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: for how many years has it been now? Like Dine, 180 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: So I was just wondering, I'm like, what does Garrett 181 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: have that appeals so much to Jerry Jones? I honestly 182 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: think that that Jerry at this point he wants. He 183 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: probably feels like I hired this guy when he was young. 184 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: He was a young coach, he didn't have a head 185 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: coaching experience. I thought he was really really smart. I 186 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: thought he knew football well, and so I figured when 187 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: I hired him, I figured, I'm in this for the 188 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: long haul, which means I'm gonna have to go through 189 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: the growing pains to get him to the point where 190 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: he's a great coach. Like you think about the great 191 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: coaches in the NFL, some of them it took a 192 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: while for them to get to be great, right, And 193 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: I think Jerry honestly believed, maybe still even believes that 194 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: he will at some point be a great coach, and 195 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: he just had to let him go through the changes 196 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: in order to get to that point. I also think 197 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: we would all agree Jason can be enormously impressive in 198 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: like a one on one or like an intimate setting. 199 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: Right I'm not talking about his press conferences, but like 200 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: if he's heading up a meeting or giving a talk privately, 201 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: or you know, a coaching interview, I bet he. I mean, 202 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: he's probably blown Jerry and whoever else away more times 203 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: than you can count, because he's organized, he's a good speaker, 204 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: he has a planning, good motivating people, Like, on the 205 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: off chance he is to leave the Cowboys, he'll blow 206 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: somebody away in an interview in the future. And I 207 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: think Jerry sees that and thinks or knows or whatever 208 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: it can translate. It hasn't yet, So all of that 209 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: contributes to why he continues to believe. Everybody told me 210 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: this early on when I started working here. Jerry wants 211 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: to win, but Jerry wants to win Jerry's way, Like, 212 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: without a doubt, he wants to win his way. And 213 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: so when you ask that question, I think, and you 214 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: said it perfectly, he hand picked this guy. This was 215 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: the one. So if Jason Garrett has success, then Jerry 216 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: is going to get credit for that because he's the 217 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: one that had the vision way back when and go 218 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: this guy's going to be a great coach, and so 219 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: he's that's why he's he's hanging in there, and that's 220 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: why he probably doesn't want to fire him and won't 221 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: fire him. He I don't think he will fire Jason Garrett. 222 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: I really don't want it. He doesn't come back, this 223 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: season will end, there's no contract, and you move on. 224 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go as far as I say I 225 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: disagree with you. But that's why I think this week 226 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: is so interesting, because we're all smart enough to know 227 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: that there have been some blunt conversations in private, but 228 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: for Jerry Jones to come out and publicly say some 229 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: of the things he's said, I agree with you. Like, 230 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 1: my gut feeling is like, well, he's not under contract 231 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: this year. If it doesn't work out, you just let 232 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: him walk away when the season's over, and there's no 233 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: need to do something drastic. But some of the stuff 234 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: Jerry's saying makes me think, like, if this doesn't drastically 235 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: pick up Thursday and the week after that, I'm becoming 236 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: to the point where I'd be less surprised if he 237 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: didn't make it through the season based on what I'm hearing. Yeah, 238 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: I'm not buying it because I honestly believe And again, 239 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: we're all making a lot of guests here because we 240 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: don't know what Jerry's really thinking. My guess is Jerry 241 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: wanted to stir this thing up, and he wanted to 242 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: put the coaches and the players on notice that look, 243 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: what you're doing right now is not good enough. And 244 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: make no mistake about it, it is not good enough. 245 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: And I think he's looking at it like, I'm hoping 246 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: to spur these guys, right, Either one of the two 247 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: things is gonna happen, if you're gonna spur them a 248 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: greatness or they're not gonna get there. And then it's like, okay, well, 249 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: but that's we dried everything. And I guess that's my 250 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: point is like, maybe it's too dramatic to say it's 251 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: a line in the sand, but once you put those 252 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: comments out there and say, like, we need to win 253 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: some damn games. And I think on Tuesday morning he said, 254 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: you're gonna see an inspired effort against the Buffalo Bills, 255 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: Like if they come out and lose to the Bills 256 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: and then again, you know, maybe taking a step further 257 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 1: and they go up to Chicago and lose in a 258 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: miserable cold game up there. We've seen that before. Don't 259 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: you have to make good on I hate to call 260 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: it a threat, but don't you have to make good 261 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: on what you said? But but what you said doesn't 262 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: necessarily say you're gonna make a move now. Yeah, you know, 263 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: And here's the problem. If the Cowboys felt to a 264 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 1: point where they were out of it, then maybe I 265 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: buy what you're saying. I don't see I don't see 266 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: the happy out of it where they are. That's my point. 267 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: Where they are with Philly, I don't think they're ever 268 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: gonna be out of it. And so you're not gaining 269 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: anything by putting a new coaching. You're not gonna get 270 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: better about putting in a new coach. Now. Now, if 271 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 1: you were out of it, then it might just be 272 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: a definitive thing of being able to say to fans, look, 273 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: this wasn't good enough. He's gone. But I don't think 274 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: you're going to be in that well. And another thing 275 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: that we mentioned is how do the players feel about it? 276 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: Does they start dividing people inside the locker room? And 277 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: are they still following Jason Garrett. So I think that 278 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: once you start seeing that kind of attitude from players, 279 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: then he just all goes down heel from there. That's 280 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: an interesting point because to this point we have never seen, 281 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: or at least met person. I've never seen a situation 282 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: where Jason has lost his locker room no matter how 283 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: things how bad things got. Yeah, they always played hard 284 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: for him and they always gave their best effort. They 285 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: may have been a couple situations here and there where 286 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: they didn't perform well, but I never felt like the 287 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: team wasn't responding to him. Which, for the record, if 288 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: I had to put money on it, I don't think 289 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett would be fired before the end of the 290 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: regular season. But this is not the status quo. Like 291 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: the status quo is something bad happens, everybody's frustrated, the 292 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: fans are fed up, and Jerry is kind of standing 293 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: in the middle of it taking the brunt of that frustration, 294 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: saying it's fine. I believe in my guy, and he's 295 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: not saying that this week, and so I have to 296 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: at least allow that this feels different, which means you 297 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,719 Speaker 1: don't know one hundred percent for sure what's going to 298 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: happen that I think he's fired if they lose Thursday. 299 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: Really see, that's my point. I just don't believe that. 300 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: I don't want season Nessarily he gets fired on Thursday, 301 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: what happens then? Yeah, you pick an inter him and 302 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: you have to pick an you know, it doesn't matter 303 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: who do you here? This football team was one and 304 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: seven and two thy ten. Their offense was playing like crap. 305 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: And guess what the offensive coordinator Jason Garrett got a promotion. 306 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: Did you deserve it right then? Form based off of 307 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: how he was coaching? No? Yes, but at one and 308 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: seven they were out of it. I know you're not 309 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: going to be out of it no matter what happens 310 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: is Thursday. But I agree with what Dave said. I 311 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: hadn't thought of it until he just said that. It's scary. 312 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: You don't I make good points from time. You don't. 313 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: You don't go out there and throw it out there 314 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: like that. And then and then and then what well 315 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: you said that you have to win and you and 316 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: now you're six and six football team because you just 317 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 1: lost her to the Bill. Yeah. But the point is, 318 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: again we're talking about the eternal optimist here. He still 319 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: is in it. His team will still be at the 320 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: end of the sturge, whether they went to lose, they 321 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: will still be leading the division. But that's right, and 322 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: I agree, so and so until until a point where 323 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: they're no longer in it, or they no longer have 324 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: an opportunity to turn things around. Then I don't think 325 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: that he would make that move. But how many times 326 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: has Jerry Jones. I don't want to say happily but 327 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: willingly kind of taking that heat. I brought this up 328 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: the other day. Remember last year when the offense was 329 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: a joke and he went on the radio and said, like, 330 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: we're a couple of players away from being the Rams. 331 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: He got roasted for saying that, and it was it 332 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: was obviously bs, but he was standing up for his 333 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: guys and his team. It's this is not normal. It's 334 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: not normal for him to not be taking the heat 335 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: for Jason Garrett and the coaching staff. And I don't 336 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: think that means he's gonna do anything drastic, but I 337 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: have to at least allow for the possibility. Think of this. Okay, 338 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: it's probably gonna be Christopher Shard would be the interim coach. Okay, 339 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: six and six to the Bills. You don't fire Jason Garrett. 340 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: You hang in there. They win a game against the Bears, 341 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: lose to the Rams, beat the Eagles, lose or I 342 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: mean or lose to the Eagles or whatever whatever it is. 343 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: Say you're eight and eight and you and you get 344 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: into the playoffs because you lost these two games, but 345 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: you beat the Eagles and the Redskins, and you're eight 346 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: and eight and you get in. Is that good for 347 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett? Like, and then they lose in the divisional right, 348 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: that's not good. Okay, the next scenario six and six, 349 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: you fire Jason Garrett, Chris Richard comes in, they win 350 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: a game, then they lose a game or whatever. Then 351 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: they lose the Eagles, but they beat the Redskins whatever. 352 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: They're eight and eight, they get in the playoffs. That's 353 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: a different story. Now you're looking at it like, well, 354 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: he saved it, he got him in the playoffs. I 355 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: think I think that did he? Though, I mean because 356 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: I think most people would agree Jason probably do the 357 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: same thing. Right, if you're talking about eight and eight 358 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: playoffs team, I mean that that's what Jason does, right. 359 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: He never made the playoffs at eight and night actually right, 360 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: But at least you get an early taste of Chris 361 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: Rashard and what he can possibly do instead of just 362 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: going into a full year next year of trying out 363 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: what he would look like as a head coach. But 364 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: if Christoph Shard didn't win out, did you see enough 365 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: that made you say, oh, yeah, he's the guy? In fact, 366 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: if he charged it around. Let's say they made the 367 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: move and Chris Shard got him to win out, I 368 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: don't think, and they got a couple of playoff wins 369 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: that probably changes your perspective and says he's your guy. 370 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: Without that, I don't know that. But at least they 371 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: get to see how he is in those meeting rooms 372 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: as a head coach, how he takes like, how he 373 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 1: handles everything responsive. Yeah, yeah, because it's like, are you 374 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: gonna magically turn this team around? I don't know, and 375 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody would really expect that to happen, 376 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: or if it did, great, But at the same time, 377 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: you know, he doesn't get that much time to create magic, 378 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: you know. And when you mentioned Garrett becoming the internet 379 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: interim coach, what was the season like? It was like? 380 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: And that's the thing, honestly, the reason why that happened 381 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: is not so much even I don't think because they 382 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: were one seven. It was how they got to one 383 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 1: and seven. Those last two games before the coach got fired, 384 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 1: they basically were not playing football like, they were just 385 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: getting just beat up. And so when it gets to 386 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: that point where basically they're not responding to coach or 387 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: the coach just doesn't have answers for them, and then 388 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: you have to make a move just because you have 389 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 1: to make a move, and it's middle of the season. 390 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: You're already one and seven. You're not going to the 391 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: playoffs at that point. So I think that was a 392 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 1: whole different scenario than where you are right now. If 393 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: he's fired, Do you think that the next coach is 394 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: here right now? No? I don't, And I honestly I 395 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: think they would go a way more experienced head coach, 396 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: because you know, they kind of bounces back and forth. 397 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: You get a really experienced one, and then you get 398 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 1: one that's let's take a chance on. Then you get 399 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: a really experienced and then you take the one's and 400 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: you take a flyer on right which is why I 401 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: think is here you do? Do you think so righty too? Oh? 402 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: Stop it, No, we don't do that. No Space Nicks stroll. 403 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: He looks all written all over it. Man from now. Yeah, 404 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna call nine out of the booth. He's gonna 405 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: come in, Caden, Caden, clip this, clip this, because when 406 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: this happens, we're gonna happen.

Yeah, No, I don't know 410 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: that it's a I think that's at the very least 411 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: it's a fun ye think. No, I think it's it's 412 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: only want to go. That's interesting, that's a whole show. 413 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: I kind of agree with what you said about the 414 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 1: back and forth of a guy that you you know, 415 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: a younger guy. But okay, if that's not the case, 416 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: if you're gonna just make a splash, what what are 417 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: you doing?

How 420 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: are you gonna splash this thing? He's Bill seventy seventy two, 421 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: so you're not gonna do that. Yeah, Jimmy's good in 422 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: the booth. I mean, I mean there are he's out there, 423 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: and I think we wait and have this conversation at 424 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: the end of the season, about three hours up the road. 425 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: I don't want I don't want to get too far 426 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 1: into this conversation. I think that's a conversation we have 427 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: after the season's over. If it doesn't go the way 428 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: that that we suspect um it would have to go 429 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: in order to stay.

Um they're 478 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: only given up sixteen points per game. I said yesterday, 479 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: They've scored twenty or less points in half of their 480 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 1: games and still managed to win half of those.

He's not as good as 490 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: a Mari Cooper, not saying he is, but every time 491 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: a Mari he's at to face those kind of cornerbacks. 492 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 1: This year it hasn't ended up great. Was considered that 493 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: kind of corner but yeah, he kicked a baby and 494 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: Howard around. Yeah, he thinks he's stadium. Do you know 495 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: the stats? It's unbelievable. It's like it's like having to 496 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: the last two nineteens. It's like having Bryce Butler, sorry, 497 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: Bryce Butler and Amari Cooper home and away. It's a 498 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: completely different player now. It's unbelievable at home and then 499 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: he's been okay on the road, and I think I 500 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 1: think he's back at home. There won't be any you know, 501 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: crappy conditions. Trey White. I mean he's super athletic. He's 502 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: a press man beast, he's he's footwork is great. He's 503 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he's physical for a cornerback. He's still a cornerback, 504 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: but he's a willing tackle. He's got great ball skills. 505 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,439 Speaker 1: Four picks this year. He's got as many picks on 506 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: his own as the entire Dallas secondary. Um. He's really good. 507 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 1: I completely expect him to follow Amari everywhere. I think 508 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: Amari can still have some success. But that is probably 509 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: the number one matchup to watch. Um. They got pass rushers. 510 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 1: Nick brought it up, Jordan Phillips, journeyman defensive tackle, kind 511 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: of came out of nowhere to have seven sacks for 512 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 1: this team. Well, he's kicking ass. You have one that 513 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: says how much do you weigh? Three? Yeah, he's like 514 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: more of a nose to seven sacks for three forty. 515 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: I mean there's defensive tackle, yes, yeah, Well what else 516 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: is he? I know? But I'm like, I'm like, is 517 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: he just like a really big defensive end that's so 518 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: tall that three forty doesn't like that's a huge guy 519 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: to get seven sacks? Which, geez, this is this is 520 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: really interesting for me being a draft nerd. Is like 521 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: they're kind of the island of misfit toys. They've taken 522 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: a lot of other people's really talented pass rushers and 523 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: turned them into guys that produce Star Latoulay. You might 524 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: remember him first round pick Carolina. He's playing tackle. Jerry Hughes, 525 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: who was a flop for India at a TCU New 526 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: life in Buffalo. He's become like one of their best 527 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: players over the last four or five years. Trip Murphy, 528 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: who was actually the guy the Washington Redskins drafted I 529 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: believe with the pick that the Cowboys gave him for 530 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence. He's up there playing well. They have Ed Oliver, 531 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: which I was, oh, yeah, I was shocked at this. 532 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: But if he's not, he's not even starting. Really, that's 533 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: how well the play. He does have three sacks, so 534 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: he's I mean, he's pretty good. Something they've got they 535 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: can rotate. But he's coming home to Texas, so he 536 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 1: might have a thirty three sacks on the season. The 537 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: big stat I would advise you to know is tied 538 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 1: for the NFL lead in tackles for loss sixty nine. 539 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: Really nice performance there. Um, that's fun. What else? Um? 540 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 1: I think their secondary is really their strength. You've got 541 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: Trey White, Micah Hyde playing safety. He's kind of a rover, 542 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: does a little bit of everything. Um. I think of 543 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: Buffalo like cold Weather team, gonna load up and stop 544 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: the run. Like I don't. They're not that impressive against 545 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: the run. They are thirteenth, one oh five. It seems 546 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: like they you can get them out of position. Misdirection 547 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: seems to work on them. Philip Lindsay and the other guy, yes, 548 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 1: thank you Freeman. They both had decent success kind of 549 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: again leading those guys out of the way. You might 550 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: remember Tremaine Edmonds. He was their first round pick out 551 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: of Virginia Tech. Very big, very scary looking, but I 552 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: seemed like I noticed him like being in the wrong 553 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: gaps and taking the wrong angles a lot. So I 554 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 1: don't think the second level, as far as run defense, 555 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: is that impressive, which they're good at getting after the quarterback, 556 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: but I think maybe there's so much focus on getting 557 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: up the field that they lose gap discipline, and I 558 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: think that's why they're probably leading the league in tackles 559 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: for losses. They'll get you if they can penetrate, but 560 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,959 Speaker 1: they're also susceptible if they don't get there, So I 561 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: think there's success to be had on the ground. I 562 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: think they're secondary's pretty stingy, kind of similar to the Pats. Honestly, 563 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: of course, you have the benefit of not having to 564 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: play indoors. Is this one of those kind of secondaries 565 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: or defenses as a whole. That you think even if 566 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: they have a good day or successful day in trying 567 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: to limit Amari Cooper, that it will affect the other 568 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: receivers as well. And maybe you can't gallow can't have 569 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: a chance to get off, or Cop can't have a 570 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: chance to get off. They have been flagged. I saw 571 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: a status for a past interference um quite a bit, 572 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: and I think Jason has called the league and told 573 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 1: them to watch out for past interference. Yeah, could do that? 574 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: Make your mind. This is a funny. This is a 575 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 1: funny aside that I thought about when everybody was freaking 576 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: out about Belichick, you know, telling them to emphasize trips, 577 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: which is Garrett's told us before. He's like, yeah, sometimes 578 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: you do that. You say, hey, you know this guy 579 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: likes to he gets shovey at the top of the routes. 580 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: Watch out for that. But he said a lot of times, 581 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: what will happen is it will work against you because 582 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: now the refs have this heightened awareness and they're like 583 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: looking for everything, and all of a sudden, your guys 584 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: are getting flagged for the penalties you were telling them 585 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: to watch out for from the other guys to see 586 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: the Patriots getting clod It worked out for the Pats. 587 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: But mate, and that's why you inform your guys from 588 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: the team. Hey, guys, we're letting the league know about this, 589 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: so you better clean up your game and make mistakes. 590 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: Trust me, I'm not saying that's a good idea. That's 591 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: head coach of the Dallas I would love back from JGG. 592 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: That would be so Prescott Betot would be fun. Again. 593 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: They you wouldn't want to hear me, would trust me. 594 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to hear every bit of that. They 595 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: have a really good slot corner by the name of 596 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: Tron Johnson. I don't I mean that. That's harsh to say. 597 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: Nobody on their secondaries as good as Trey White, but 598 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: I do think I mean they have the tools to 599 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: limit the passing game. Of course, they were playing Brandon 600 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: Allen last week, a little bit of a difference between 601 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: him and Dak Prescott, and they haven't really have they 602 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: played a really a quarterback offense. What's the best one 603 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: other than the Patriots Brady. But they did a great 604 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: job against the Patriots. I think they lost that game. 605 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: The Eagles obviously put up points against him, right, Yeah, 606 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: the Eagles hammered them. Yeah, just I mean it's one 607 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: of the those things were like, you lose the plot, 608 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: you're playing from behind. Yeah. So, you know, we were 609 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: looking at stats on the Bill's offense. I don't know 610 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: if you mentioned it last week but yesterday, but Josh 611 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: Allen has more rushing touchdowns than Lamar Jackson. I did 612 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: mention that he's got a lot. He's got seven, got seven, 613 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: Lamar six. Now, obviously Lamar's a lot of you know, 614 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: rushing yards. Yeah, but he's third in the NFL and 615 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: rushing yards behind uh Lamar and Kyler Murray. You know, 616 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: so he's I mean, he's pretty good. But that's also 617 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: what and I think it was using that has been 618 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: saying this that that's the part in the red zone 619 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: if you could use the dack more, not only it 620 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: is not only a good thing for him, but it 621 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: also helps the offense from the standpoint that the it 622 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: creates one more wrinkle that the defense has to pay 623 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: attention to that hopefully opens up other things. And the 624 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys just don't They're not consistently ready to use that. 625 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: It seemed like at one point, and maybe this was 626 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: even last year, they were doing it a little bit 627 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: more like this year. I can't think of a lot 628 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: of situations at all in the red zone where they're 629 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: allowing Dak or they're calling place for Dak to use 630 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: his legs. I mean, and I said yesterday, like Josh 631 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: Allen is not noticeably more athletic than Dak and just yeah, 632 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: I mean that needs to be part of his repertoire. 633 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: And I mean you don't. He doesn't need to average 634 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: sixty yards a game like Josh Allen does. I think 635 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: I think a lot of that is because Josh Allen 636 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: is not there as a passer. I mean a lot 637 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,719 Speaker 1: of I mean, they do design runs, but a lot 638 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: of that is him pulling it down when he doesn't 639 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: see it and scrambling. Yeah. So I like Dak hanging 640 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: back in the pocket and making plays with his arm, 641 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: but he's athletic enough that that should be something he 642 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: does on a weekly basis. All Right, we'll take our 643 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: final break, come back.

We got a call from Rob in Vegas. Rob. 690 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: What up? Rob? Hey, guys, have a happy Thanksgiving. First 691 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: of all, thanks you too. You know, Jerry's age makes 692 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: them desperate, and when Jerry's desperate, he makes great coaching decisions. 693 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: He buys their team for one hundred and forty million. 694 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: High is a national champ. Jimmy Johnson Unfortunately, let's him 695 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: go Hi is another National champ switcher. To make up 696 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 1: for that, Danny goes off the rail and then he 697 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: high is Bill Parcels because he needs a new stadium built. 698 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: Now I agree with Nick. If they lose Thursday, I 699 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: definitely see if scenario where they fire Garrett. They promote 700 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: Christopher Shark because not to give him a four game 701 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: head start to evaluate um. Maybe he's the future coach. 702 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 1: Who knows? But I and I and I disagree with Derek. 703 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: I think if when you fire somebody, Let's be honest, 704 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: If you fire you Dave right now, please don't Nick. 705 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: Nick is gonna be like, oh wow, I gotta be 706 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: on my toes. It just sharpens everybody up happy with that. 707 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 1: It may not last a long time, but look what 708 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: happened when Garrett took over that one season. I think 709 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: they went five and two. It just shot. It makes 710 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: everybody on their toes, and I think that that's what 711 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 1: Jerry's trying to do. He only got four five games. 712 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: He says, if whatever I gotta take to give you 713 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: five games, if that gets me four and one, he 714 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 1: can't be on a road to the player. I think 715 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: he's willing to do whatever it takes. So I would 716 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 1: I want to be shocked if he's done. If they 717 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,399 Speaker 1: lose every day, which I hope you have. But talk 718 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: about the ladistics though of when you bring in a 719 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 1: new head coach, then is can you really affect a 720 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:09,439 Speaker 1: lot of change? Because I'm saying, if you're, if you're 721 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 1: if you're, if you're promoting somebody, can you effect a 722 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: lot of change in a short period of time like that? Yes, 723 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: we did a documentary on it. Did a documentary on 724 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: Garrett changing everything in four days. Yes, what I mean 725 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: Christ Shade, who was totally different than Jason Garrett. I 726 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: mean that's night and day. So that espessionally, I mean 727 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: if you promoted uh, the offensive coordinated note, he's very 728 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 1: similar to guys you promote Chris ra Shade. That voice 729 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 1: is going to be so different than Garretts. I think 730 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: it would shake them up immediately. But but it's the 731 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: problem with this team that they're not properly motivated. Because 732 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: if that's the case, then yeah, you're right. You can't 733 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: affect change because you just change the voice and the message. 734 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 1: Maybe that motivates the different way. I don't hear anybody 735 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: saying this team isn't properly motivated. I hear people saying 736 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: it's not being properly coached. That those are two different things. 737 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: I think it's both. But I say I think what 738 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 1: it is is Jason Garrett was a substitute teacher all 739 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 1: year when you didn't give him the contract. These players 740 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 1: subconsciously saying, listen, I'm gonna be here longer than you are. 741 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: I don't agree. I agree with that, man, I don't 742 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: agree with that. I think his voice was lost. And 743 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: let's face it, We've been talking about this for years. 744 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: I've been calling in him. We always said the same 745 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: thing about him. He's a terrible game day coach and 746 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 1: he's never gotten any better. All right, thanks what I mean? Yeah, 747 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 1: So that's and listen, you get it like you get in, 748 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 1: you get in trouble with fans, like I've been bickering 749 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: with fans on Twitter for the last two days. Is 750 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: like I'm I'm not trying to convince you that you 751 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: should like Jason Garrett, right, but I don't. I don't 752 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: think that's true that he's lost. You know that the 753 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: players don't listen to what he has to say, or 754 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: they've or they've tuned him out. Although I will say, 755 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 1: we keep talking about the slow starts, like that's the 756 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: one area I mean, I mean, it's it's harsh to say, 757 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: like are they motivated? But they seem to come out 758 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 1: flat often than not in motivation. Seems like it's part 759 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: of that gave you the wrong scenario when I was 760 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: stuck talking earlier about the last four games. You don't 761 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: fire Jason Garrett. He goes three and one, he wins 762 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: the last two, and he beats you know one of 763 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: the Bears and three and one, they're nine and seven, 764 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: they make it to the playoffs, they lose. He's definitely 765 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: out nine and seven, six and six, you fire him, 766 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: Chris Rashard comes over, he goes three and one down 767 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:32,840 Speaker 1: the stretch, and they win the division and go to 768 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 1: the playoffs. That right, there is a totally different nine 769 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,919 Speaker 1: and seven. He might even get the job. That's really 770 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 1: I said eight and eight, that's not any But how 771 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: is that because I don't know that. I don't know that. 772 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: Conventional wisdom doesn't say that Jason can't get this team 773 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,360 Speaker 1: to nine and seven. Yeah, but they don't want Jason's 774 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: nine and seven. Nobody wants that anymore. Nobody wants Jason's 775 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: nine and seven because three other than the guy that 776 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,799 Speaker 1: you said earlier, who has a vested interest in him 777 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 1: doing well, he wants his nine and seven. Nah, he's 778 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 1: not gonna hire at nine and seven and missing the playoffs, 779 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: losing in the first round of the playoffs at home. No, 780 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: he's gonna be fired. But three and one you look 781 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: at it different. You're like, wait a second, if you 782 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: give him, if you give him a whole season, three 783 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: and one's twelve and four, right, if you know him, 784 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: if you know, if you know that it's going to 785 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: play out like that, great. The problem is and that's 786 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 1: the reason why I think it doesn't matter about what 787 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:28,240 Speaker 1: happens Thursday, because right now you're still leading the division. 788 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: That's why there's no here, there's no reason why they 789 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: would make a change right now. It's because they're still 790 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 1: leading the divisions. Take me there. You talk about this 791 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: talented team, and I know that's you've said differently. Nick, 792 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 1: It's like, yo, are they really that talented? But we 793 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: talked about it during training camp how much talent there 794 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 1: is on this team as far as the players. You 795 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: want to make sure because next year's roster is gonna 796 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,359 Speaker 1: be different than this year, so you want to make sure. 797 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: And I think that's how Jerry season and where all 798 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 1: the frustration comes from, is a wasted ear with this 799 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: group of talented players that you're not going to be 800 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: able to replicate next year. So what do you do 801 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: with that? Do you go all out and stick with 802 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett and what he's able to do? And like 803 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 1: yesterday I was thinking, I was looking at the schedule 804 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 1: and realize, damn, we have five games left on the schedule, 805 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: and still we're trying to like figure this team out. 806 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,280 Speaker 1: We're still trying to find out what the Cowboys are about. 807 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 1: And it's like, what else do you need to find 808 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 1: that out? This? Okay, So here's my question in what 809 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 1: do you guys think is the biggest problem that would 810 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: cause Jason Garrett to lose his job? And I'm talking 811 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 1: about his coaching acumen. What do you think is the 812 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 1: biggest issue He's not winning enough games? Wow? I can 813 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: come up with eight differently. Is it scheme, is it 814 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 1: game day decisions? What is it that you think is 815 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: the biggest problem for him as a coach that would 816 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: end up making him lose his job? I think they 817 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: don't win in the fourth quarter? Okay, they don't. This 818 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: team has not been a clutch team. So that's my question. 819 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,359 Speaker 1: So you're going to then say, Okay, after this week, 820 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 1: let's say they lose, you get rid of him. You're 821 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: gonna make hold on. Okay, you're gonna make the guy 822 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 1: that right now runs the secondary your head coach. How 823 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: much is he going to affect a difference in the 824 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,720 Speaker 1: things that ultimately would affect him losing in the fourth quarter, 825 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 1: Whether that is offensively, they're not getting off to a 826 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,760 Speaker 1: fast start. They're not being able from a scheme standpoint, 827 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 1: they're not being able to get a Mari open. Like 828 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 1: whatever the things already you say, Hey, Jason needs to 829 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,439 Speaker 1: do a better job at coaching. What makes you think 830 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: a defensive minded guy? Because I think right now we're 831 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,399 Speaker 1: all looking at this offensive saying there are problems here. 832 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: What's gonna What makes you think that that's going to 833 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: change anything to where you're going to get a different 834 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: result any short period of time. It's one thing if 835 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 1: he has a whole off sense and to rethink how 836 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: he does things, to put different guys in place, tell 837 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: them how he wants to change philosophically what he's doing. 838 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: You're talking about doing that on the fly. With four 839 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: games left, he's being ready for this. Chris roy Shard 840 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 1: seems the moment he got here, I talked to him 841 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: and I'm like, hey, what's yours here? He's been ready 842 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 1: for a head coach. How does he enact that stuff 843 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: in with four games left? He says, we haven't been 844 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: down here all day and down in the red zone. 845 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna go fourth, fourth down. It's fourth and seven. 846 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 1: It's not manageable, but we're gonna have to go for it. 847 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna go for it. He's a more aggressive, He's 848 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: an aggressive His approach is more aggressive, and that doesn't 849 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 1: mean that just because and that's one thing I don't like. 850 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,399 Speaker 1: He's the best option I think, but just because he's 851 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,760 Speaker 1: the loudest, everyone says, ohoh man, that guy's motivated. Okay. 852 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 1: I said this the other day, Tom Cable from the Raiders, 853 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 1: Mike Tice from the Vikings. They seemed pretty intense too. 854 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: Were they good coaches? I mean, just because you bark 855 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 1: a lot doesn't necessarily mean you're a good coach, And 856 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,879 Speaker 1: just because you don't doesn't mean that you're not. Same thing. 857 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 1: I'm just and I do think he would get the opportunity. 858 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 1: But I think to answer your question as an aggressive, 859 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 1: like just an aggressive style that we think that we from. 860 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 1: Are you sure though, that too he is? Because not sure? 861 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: What you know is his personalities that we didn't call him. Also, 862 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: Morrow's food will be good. That's the only thing that 863 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 1: I know right now. Like I just I don't really 864 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: think that matters. Like Nick Nick made a documentary about 865 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 1: Garrett turning a lifeless one and seveneam and getting them 866 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 1: to a respectable finish like and he was ready to 867 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: like he was ready if if Jerry Jones, if Jerry 868 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,320 Speaker 1: Jones is ready to pull the trigger. And for the record, 869 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: I don't think he will be win or lose tomorrow, 870 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 1: but if he was, all that matters is that it's 871 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: not the guy that you lost faith in. I don't 872 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 1: think it really matters like, well, what are you going 873 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: to do differently? It's just you're not what I have 874 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 1: decided isn't working anymore. I think it's that simple, honestly, 875 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: I get it. And and then to be honest with you, 876 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:36,720 Speaker 1: I think if this was the middle of the season, 877 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 1: I would be more inclined to believe what you guys believe. 878 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: I think right now, with where you are in the 879 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: season and where you are in the division, I just 880 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: don't foresee that happening. Let me let me be clear. Basically, 881 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm sorry to say this to y'all. Tomorrow's games really 882 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:55,240 Speaker 1: not that important. It's an AFC game. No matter what happens, 883 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 1: the Eagles can't catch them, and then they've got four 884 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: games against the NFC who do it or don't do 885 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 1: it right? So I really I don't think that it 886 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: matters in the grand scheme of like, do you need 887 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 1: to fire the guy? Having said that, and I knew 888 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 1: that was coming, right, y'all, y'all agree or disagree, Like, 889 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 1: what I have learned through eleven weeks this season is that, 890 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: without a shadow of a doubt, anything short of like 891 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,359 Speaker 1: a sizeable playoff run means a change in tenure. That's 892 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,760 Speaker 1: my belief. That is my belief. And I didn't always 893 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 1: know that because in September I was like, well, if 894 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: they go twelve and four and lose before the NFC 895 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 1: title game, is he really gonna make a change. That's 896 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 1: what your's comments told me. Right, that's confirmed at this point, 897 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm sitting here saying the season has been a disappointment 898 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: up to this point. Barring vastly exceeding expectations from here 899 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 1: on out, I don't think it'll be good enough, right, 900 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:49,799 Speaker 1: That's what I think. All Right, So let's pick the 901 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: game for tomorrow. Let's go around the table, and we're 902 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: gonna start with you who wins the game. I honestly, 903 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 1: I still see it could go either way. I mean, 904 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys know how to pick it up on games 905 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:06,760 Speaker 1: like these so I could see them finally clicking again 906 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 1: and making it look like they're good. But then at 907 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: the same time I can see them just same crap, 908 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 1: losing the game the same way they've been losing all 909 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: these other games. So I don't know. Shoot whatever, they 910 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 1: got me, They got me. You just voiced every Cowboys 911 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 1: fan in the world got me. Here we go again, 912 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 1: all right, Dave, this is the Jason Garrett Special. Like 913 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 1: everything we just said. What do I always call him? 914 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 1: He's Michael Myers. We just had a whole show. We 915 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 1: just had a whole show talking about the end of 916 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 1: the Jason Garrett era. The Bills are better than a 917 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: lot of people want to give them credit for. This 918 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: won't be an easy game, but contrary to what some 919 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: people think, like Rob in Vegas, the team has not 920 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: tuned him out. Quit on him. Whatever you want to say. 921 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 1: They will play hard. It will be a close game, 922 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: but they will win. You know, twenty. It'll be a 923 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 1: weird score too, It'll be like twenty six to twenty, 924 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 1: but the Cowboys will They'll pull out a win. It 925 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 1: sounds like an overtime touchdown something, or maybe just a 926 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 1: dramatic like two field goals because they can't score in 927 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:17,839 Speaker 1: the red zone and the Bills are driving and it's 928 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, I don't know. Something of a great Wednesday, 929 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:24,799 Speaker 1: thank you. Do you see anybody jumping in the red kettle? Yeah, 930 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,479 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some red kettle jumping. Yeah, yeah it'll 931 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: be It'll be Zeke probably he'll throw somebody in there. Um, 932 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 1: this is I agree. This is a Jason special. This 933 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 1: is one of those games. I've seen it along and 934 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:37,400 Speaker 1: before he was the coach. It's just when when it 935 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: just seems like that, it's it's about to be explosion here, 936 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: something weird happens. So I'm gonna say something weird happens 937 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 1: in this game. The Cowboys win thirty one to seven. WHOA, 938 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: that's funny. That's really funny. I actually I was actually 939 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 1: going the same way with this because I think I 940 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:04,919 Speaker 1: think people underestimate to on a short week how hard 941 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:06,719 Speaker 1: it is to have to travel on the road, Like, 942 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 1: not only are they dealing with what the Cowboys are 943 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 1: where you said earlier, you start feeling right about Thursday, 944 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 1: but you only really get one day of practice because 945 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 1: you're right now the Bills are traveling like the Cowboys. 946 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,359 Speaker 1: They have a little practice today, They'll have some other 947 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 1: things they can do. They don't have to travel the 948 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,840 Speaker 1: Bills are traveling today. That is a lot to compress 949 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 1: into that shorter period. And I do believe the Cowboys 950 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 1: have a built in advantage because they do this every 951 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 1: single year on this weekend, on this week, on this holiday. 952 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 1: They know what Thanksgiving looks like on a short week 953 00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: in Dallas, and I think that matters. Not only that, 954 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: I also think I look at what the build, what 955 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,320 Speaker 1: happened to the Bills when they played at the Philadelphia Eagles, 956 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 1: and I believe this offense. I believe this offense will 957 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:49,439 Speaker 1: put up points because that's the one thing. There's been 958 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:51,360 Speaker 1: only a few games this year with the offense didn't 959 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 1: score and score a lot. I think they'll score a 960 00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 1: lot this game. I think it ends up being thirty 961 00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 1: one ten Cowboys. I'm gonna change mind. I want to 962 00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: go thirty one to thirteen. I'm gonna give them a 963 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 1: couple more. But all I'm saying, well, I have to 964 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,040 Speaker 1: write it in the gut feeling, and I don't want 965 00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 1: it to be I don't want it to be law. 966 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 1: You changed it up. I have to actually put it 967 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,439 Speaker 1: on paper. You know, I've already one thirteen. I picked 968 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:13,880 Speaker 1: him to win, but I've seen the Cowboys take some 969 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 1: massive l's on Thanksgiving. Fourteen Eagles happen Garrett seventeen Chers Thanksgiving. Really, 970 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 1: I would he guess his best win record wise? What 971 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,399 Speaker 1: his best win is against the sixty three and one 972 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 1: Redskins team in twenty sixteen. Yeah, they won by Kat 973 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,840 Speaker 1: and the three and seven Dolphins. Alright, Kate and the 974 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 1: six and four Red down.
