All Right, today we talked about 0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:02.160 Cowboys lost lose thirty four to ten at home against 0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:03.160 Houston Texans. 0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:05.520 Another game where in the first. 0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:08.080 Half you thought, well, maybe there's a chance, and then 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:11.279 in the third quarter hits and lots of things happen. 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:13.680 We'll talk about a lot of those things. I think 0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:15.600 we'll at some point in the show. We're certainly going 0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:17.280 to get to some of the coaching decisions that were 0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:20.560 made yesterday and just talk about that and see what 0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:23.800 you guys thoughts are there. Let's start where we always start, 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.280 story of the game. For you guys, what was the story? 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:26.400 Game? 0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:31.440 Will start with you, Nick oh Man, It's still complimentary football. 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:31.679 For me. 0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:34.440 This offense is not helping the defense out at all. 0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:39.280 The defense bends and then the offense breaks, and it's 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:44.240 handicapping this team. It's starting to make me appreciate Dak 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:48.440 Prescott winning three games a little bit more just because 0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:52.280 without him, I mean, you're seeing lack of efficiency throughout. 0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:52.880 The entire offense. 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:56.400 And on a day where Rico Daubdle regresses to two 0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:58.960 point eight yards per carry and the attempts go down 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:01.080 and you have to lean on Cooper rush, you have 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:04.280 to lean on the passing game, you don't find any consistency. 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:07.440 And for me, the lack of consistency in the pass 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:09.760 game was pushing the ball downfield. We saw him do 0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:11.360 it a couple of times in the second half whenever 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:15.959 they started pressing. But overall, this offense is nowhere close 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:17.520 to being an efficient offense. 0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:18.640 Yeah. 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:22.000 I don't know whether to blame Mike McCarthy or say 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:27.679 he's a genius all the same thought. Because we talked 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.919 about the running game a lot, I'm gonna blame him 0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:33.440 for the fact that he's asking guys to do things 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:37.360 they can't do. You're asking Ceedee Lamb on the first 0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:41.320 play of the game to block inside on a linebacker. 0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:45.200 Ceedee Lamb wants nothing to do with that. He wants 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:48.560 nothing to do. You're asking a thirty five million dollar 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:53.519 your best player on offense to go wham block a linebacker, 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:58.760 gain to two. It happens more often than not with 0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:02.720 this scheme, and I wonder, Mike McCarthy, I'm blaming you 0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:06.600 for that, But I'm also blaming you for like, man, I. 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:09.920 Can't run these plays anymore. I can't run the ball anymore. 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:11.200 Because a lot of my stuff is set up with 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:13.960 Now you have some guys that are willing to block. 0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:18.399 You have some receivers. By the way, Mingo, I would 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:19.320 put him at tackle. 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:22.720 He is your best blocking receiver. 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:24.400 My man will crack people. 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:26.440 He didn't put him at tackle. Let's go. 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:30.920 He will crack people. He will block down, he will 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:34.680 block on the edge. That is a mean man. That 0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:36.800 is a mean man playing football. And there were a 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.840 couple of times or routes where he was actually opened 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:41.640 and the ball didn't go his direction to the knicks 0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:44.960 point the offense. You watch it, there's no real rhyme 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:47.800 or reason to it. Sometimes I can understand why Mike 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:49.200 McCarthy doesn't want to run the. 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:51.440 Ball, but I think it's his own fault. I think 0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:52.120 he's asked. 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:55.080 It's hard to run the ball when you leave people unblocked, 0:03:55.760 --> 0:03:59.680 when you just say, hey, magically, that guy's not going 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:02.320 to be there when we run this play, and then 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:04.640 all of a sudden, magically the linebacker shows up in 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:09.840 the whole gain of zero, gain of two, gain of one. 0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:14.400 Because you don't block everybody on the play. Yeah, you 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:17.080 got to make some people miss and stuff, but you 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:20.159 just can't let people. Now they time a safety blitz. 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:23.479 It's a negative play. Okay, that's just chest right there. 0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:26.200 Chess match boom. They brought up blitz, you know. 0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:28.599 But like I say, Mike. 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:32.480 McCarthy, we complain about your running game, and you say, well, 0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:33.400 you know, we get behind. 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:34.640 We can't. I want to do it more. 0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:38.400 They need to figure out they kind of got They 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:41.599 got to figure out how to block everybody. And like 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:43.279 I said, that first play of the game. It just 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:45.360 was so evident to me why they don't run the ball. 0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:50.040 And it happened throughout this game when guys don't get 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:53.919 picked up and you're asking your best offensive weapon to 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:57.760 go in there and crack on a linebacker and you 0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:59.040 could see he clearly is like. 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:00.960 I'm going and I'm not gonna go. 0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:04.880 And then that linebacker steps up and and Rico Duell 0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:06.960 gets hit for a two yard game where the rest 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:11.320 of the play is blocked beautifully, beautifully get. 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:12.159 That one block. You got it? 0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:15.919 Maybe an eight nine yard game happens a lot. It 0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:17.840 happens a lot, and I understand why they don't run 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:20.880 the ball because they're asking their guys to do things 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:23.960 that they can't do, and they can't go back to 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:26.560 it because they see it one time and they're like, man, 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:27.680 that didn't work the first time. 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:29.400 I can't go back to that. And that's part of 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:29.960 the game plan. 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:31.120 I want to say. 0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:33.719 Last week, there was a situation where I want to 0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:36.760 say it was Tolbert, but one of the receivers they 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.560 put in motion and he's like lead blocking and it's 0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:43.240 like that's not gonna work. No, you put a receiver 0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:46.560 one of these receivers, particularly a situation where they're having 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.240 to lead block through a hole in the middle of 0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:52.080 the offense. Like there's just like that just doesn't you're 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:53.799 sko for success? 0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:56.920 No, no, and there there does? You know? 0:05:57.160 --> 0:06:01.159 Ceedee Lamb is a tough guy, but you're asking him 0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:04.599 to go dig out a linebacker. Yeah, And I've seen 0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:09.039 scoon maker, hunter Lipke. I've seen guys that should be 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:11.679 able to go do that, not get that job done, 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:14.120 and you're asking him to go in there, you know, 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:17.159 with a bad back and all that and code block 0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:21.280 on a guy. Okay, you get what you you get 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:24.080 what you set up. And I think we're in a 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:27.440 mode right now with this offense. They're asking some of 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:29.560 these guys to do things. I'll tell you another thing. 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:34.120 Where was where was Turpin in this game? It's a 0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:38.200 couple of opportunities. The big play they really watched the game, 0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:41.599 They didn't really cover him very well. His speed was bought. 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:43.040 Was troubling to those guys. 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:44.640 I saw stat yesterday. 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:48.880 Obviously that big touchdown sixty four yards, Well, yeah, that 0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:49.400 that was certain. 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:51.880 That was the big thing fast since twenty two, I 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:53.680 want to say twenty twenty. 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.360 Yeah, but it was obviously it was a slant. Do 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:58.320 you want to guess how many slants Cavante Turpin has 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:02.560 run this year? That was his second slant run all 0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:04.600 year for the fastest guy on your team. 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:06.240 Yeah, two slants. 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.880 Caught him, caught him in, caught him in perfect coverage. 0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:11.680 They if you watch the play, they're a cover too, 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.400 and they rotate it to go single high. So they 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:17.680 at the snap they dropped this. They dropped the right 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.640 safety down and the other safety comes to the middle 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:24.120 and he runs away from the safety. So here's the 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.680 safety coming down. Give Mic and them credit for this, 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:30.240 or Cooper Rush or somebody. Turpin, the you know, safety 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.880 comes down, he runs to where the safety was, Ball's there, 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:33.960 and now it's a touchdown. 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:35.600 Yeah, he just you're not gonna catch him when he's 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:36.120 even with you. 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:38.440 No, he destroyed Jeff Akuta off the line too. 0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:43.680 And yes, but you know he's he's he gets you know, 0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:46.520 he's gets just that many targets and you're throwing the 0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:48.560 you know, span Ford's got more targets. 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:50.680 You know, guys like that and and and nothing to 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:51.600 get spanned Ford. 0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:54.080 But I'm just saying, go ahead, tell us how you 0:07:54.080 --> 0:07:54.800 really feel. 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:58.640 Heyd Let me tell you what real quick, if I 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:03.760 could just real quick, gayg you know, then I think 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:07.440 that the interception, and this is maybe a reckless speculation 0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:12.680 on my part, that that uh you're tied in Ferguson 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:16.920 came out after the interception. He might have run the 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:21.160 wrong route concussed on the interception. I think he took 0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:25.200 his man into where they were throwing the slant because 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:29.840 of where the collision where uh where uh lamb wran 0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:33.200 it was rented and and his and you see you 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:34.800 see Ferguson running out. 0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:38.600 I don't know if you think he defend after on 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:39.360 the sidelines, you. 0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:42.720 See Linda Wells is like, you know, trying to explain something, 0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:44.560 and then we didn't see him the rest of the game. 0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:46.000 So I don't know. 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:47.920 I mean that might be better actually got it. 0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:48.520 Yeah, you don't know. 0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:49.880 I mean he might have got it, but then he 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:52.439 was but he didn't play after that and was maybe 0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:54.080 he was disoriented. 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:54.560 I don't know. 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.120 I'm that's probably reckless to my part, but it looked 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.840 like to me, the way the route designed the combination, 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:04.280 that they got something wrong there which allowed which got 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:05.520 lamp picked. 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:09.000 Off by the flat route. Yeah, so I don't know. 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:11.000 I mean, it's something that probably need to dig into 0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:11.559 a little bit. 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:16.360 Yeah, I just feel like you don't know your players, 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:18.600 Like I like, you don't really know. 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:24.360 Who your players are. And I hate it's weird. 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:26.200 I hate saying this because who the heck am I 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.240 to be saying this when they're the ones out there 0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:31.280 with the players every single day. But watching the game 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:35.040 sometimes and like you just questioned some of the positions 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.520 that they put their own players in and you're like, wait, 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:39.520 that doesn't make sense or why'd you do that? 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:42.160 Or why didn't you do that? So it's just confusing. 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:46.160 And with the play calling, and we've talked about it 0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:50.200 all along, but again it's a combination of play calling 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:54.640 and bad execution. It comes to the players too, where 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:56.600 they just can't I mean some of those throws that 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.080 Cooper Rush was throwing, You're like, what the heck? 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:01.120 We know you can do better than that. What are 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:05.400 you doing? And I know, heading into this game, I'm like, Okay, 0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:08.520 I know what we've got. You know, I'm not expecting 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:09.640 much at this point. 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:12.720 But at the same time, I can't help but still 0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:16.840 get frustrated when you see yourself having a chance, and 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.240 you're so close, and you're like, Okay, you're in the game. 0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:21.600 A lot of other things are working in your favor 0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:23.200 when it comes down to you. A lot of those 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.320 penalties you got away with, so with having so many 0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:30.160 extra chances, but you still couldn't do anything from it. 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:34.000 So that's the frustrating part. And when you see how 0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:36.640 the defense is playing, and I'm seeing the score here 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:38.560 on the TV right now, the final I mean like 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:41.640 that score doesn't truly illustrate what happened in the game, 0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:44.760 which is the story of the season. Like every score 0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:48.160 of every game doesn't really tell the story of how 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:51.280 the game was and how many times you actually did 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:55.199 have a chance, but you just cannot for the life 0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:57.920 of you. I don't even know the Americans saying here, 0:10:58.000 --> 0:10:59.200 but you're gonna. 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:02.880 It was a Spanish saying, you just can't do. 0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:09.240 Anything offensively to score those points. And then I'm like, 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:13.040 we have seven games left. Are you gonna have enough 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.680 players to play games? At this point? They just keep 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:18.880 dropping and dropping, and the injury list just keeps getting 0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:23.080 longer and longer. And you see how much that affected 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:26.080 the offensive line. When two of your guys came out 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:28.199 of there, and you're like, oh, my gosh, so I 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.400 it's concerning knowing that you are about to play another 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:36.840 game and then quickly turn around for Thanksgiving. So that's 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.120 another area of the game that you're just like, how 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:41.800 are you gonna be able to manage to keep playing 0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:42.920 these games at this rate? 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:44.560 I think you made a really good point in there, 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:47.200 and I give credit to the people who taught me 0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.199 the game very early on, and this is something that's 0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:51.520 kind of stapled in my brain. One of the top 0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:55.560 responsibilities as a play caller KYP know your personnel, know 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:58.120 what your guys do best, and put them in positions 0:11:58.160 --> 0:12:01.119 to play to their strengths. Having seen Crack a linebacker 0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:05.319 not handling stunts well, and so you throw in a 0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:08.080 guy like TJ. Bass was not handled stunts well, my 0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:09.920 first guy would have been brock Hoffman in there at 0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:10.320 right guard. 0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:12.520 Personally, But that's that's very minuscule. 0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:14.880 I'm just saying, from top to bottom, it doesn't feel 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:18.080 like either side of the ball really knows their personnel 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:18.960 to the best right now. 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:23.880 And also, how come we didn't see tree Lance like 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:27.520 that's confused? That was confusing to me, especially how the 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.920 previous game against the Eagles, how they played that and 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:32.800 they threw him in there, and then this game you 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:35.360 don't use him at all. And it's just like, okay, 0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:40.280 when you would think, my opinion, when you get guys 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:42.120 on the offensive line that started coming out and you 0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:44.920 see that Cooper Bush will not run. I mean, he 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:46.600 had a couple of times that he tried to, but 0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:49.920 he he doesn't have that in his game to run 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:53.280 and escape. Throw somebody out there that can actually run 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:54.600 and run for his life. 0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:54.800 You know. 0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:57.240 Actually that's where honestly, if you look at it, and 0:12:57.280 --> 0:12:59.480 I know, Brian, you and I talked last week about 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:01.640 the the know, hey, do you just flip this into 0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:03.560 a college kind of offense. I don't know that they're 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:05.520 going to do that, but I'll tell you where. I 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.840 do think they missed an opportunity if you're at fourth 0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:12.240 and two. First of all, I disagree with the decision 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:13.960 to go for it there. I think when you got 0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:16.079 a team a compromise game, right, when you got a 0:13:16.120 --> 0:13:18.400 team miscompromise, you keep them in the game. That's that's 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:20.880 priority number one. So you take the three points. There's 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:24.040 no question about it in my mind. But if you're 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:26.040 just want to be aggressive and you're like, we're going 0:13:26.120 --> 0:13:27.480 to go for it and fourth and two. 0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:30.520 That's the kind of thing where I'm like, if. 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.559 You're crea, I know, I know, But if you're creative enough, 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:37.160 you had you've had two weeks now to figure out 0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:40.040 I got a fourth and two situation. If I can 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:42.640 use Trey Lance out there, this is a great situation 0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:45.520 fourth and two. I can show them something a little different, 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:48.320 something that's not on tape. What can I do with 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.520 Trey Lance that I can't do with Cooper Rush? That 0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:52.880 can pick up two yards for me to extend this play. 0:13:53.160 --> 0:13:56.600 That's where I'm like, you missed an opportunity, and it 0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.560 shows me that that you're not thinking creatively enough to 0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:03.360 be able to take advantage of this guy's skill set 0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:05.720 in situations where you can use it. It doesn't mean 0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:07.240 you got to give him a whole series because Mike 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.160 talked after the game and said, you know, I really 0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:10.320 wanted to get him a series. 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:11.840 You don't need to get him a series. 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:16.839 There were opportunities in that game rate when you could 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:18.960 have put it out there for a play, because in 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:22.040 that play, in that situation, the defense would be like, Okay, 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:22.600 this is different. 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:23.800 This is something we haven't seen. 0:14:23.840 --> 0:14:26.000 How are we going to adapt? And if you're creative enough, 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:27.880 you can draw up the right kind of play. Pick 0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:30.160 up two yards, bring him right back off the field, 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:31.920 put Cooper in, try to see if you can convert 0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:32.480 your touchdown. 0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:34.960 So that's where I have more of a problem with 0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:35.960 not using Trey Lance. 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:38.000 It wasn't so much about getting making him the starter 0:14:38.160 --> 0:14:39.080 or playing him a lot. 0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:41.800 Yeah, I just think it were opportunities. 0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:42.800 Where you should have been able to come up with 0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:45.360 something creative, a creative way to use him and to 0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:46.600 be able to help this team win. 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.160 That's that's another point of just knowing your personnel. I 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.800 think if Trey Lance is in the situation there, then 0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:53.800 you're not cutting off half the field on a Cooper 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:56.320 rush rollout to the right. I just there was so 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:58.800 many things about that play call that I just completely hated. 0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:02.800 But is an opportunity for this team seven games remaining. 0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:04.880 They might not know their personnel right now, but they 0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:07.720 can learn their personnel and it'll give them a lot 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:10.000 of clarity this offseason whenever they have to ask these 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.800 important questions. They have seven games to answer those questions 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:14.600 right now. I think It's an opportunity for this team 0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:16.960 that you know some contenders might not have, because if 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.200 you're contending for a playoff spot, you want to have 0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:21.560 the best chance at winning. I say, right now, you 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:24.000 throw all fifty three guys on the field, give them 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:24.920 legitimate playing time. 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:26.680 Over the course of the next seven find out. 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:29.320 Figure out what everybody played in that game betray Lance. 0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:32.920 Figure everybody that dressed. Everybody that dressed played betray Lance. 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.320 See he was the only one starting Josh Butler at 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:39.080 outside corner, starting Israel mcwama slot, putting Ryan Flinoy at 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:43.440 outside corner, giving him all those options. Bingo, Brevin span Ford, 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:45.840 throw everything out on the field. You have to know 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:46.920 what you have to know what you need. 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:47.840 So how do you go? 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:50.640 Okay, I know we're having to go to break, Go 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:52.680 to break, and I have a question from Okay. 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:54.480 Go to break.
