0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:48.320
<v Speaker 1>Mickey Spagnolan, I'll make you absolute Okay, I'm turning my

0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:51.000
<v Speaker 1>volume on. Ah, very good. All right, you had us

0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>fired up, then SPACs just let the energy drop. He

0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:57.160
<v Speaker 1>did exactly right. And he's the star of this show

0:00:57.240 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>as well. All right. So it's a day off for

0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:03.560
<v Speaker 1>the player. It's a Tuesday, yes, but it is a

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:07.639
<v Speaker 1>game plan Tuesday and get things ready for the return

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 1>of the players on Wednesday. And the road to the

0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl just got easier because of what happened on

0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Monday night for your Dallas Cowboys. As was not predicted here. Yesterday,

0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>the Arizona Cardinals fall to the Los Angeles Rams right,

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:25.960
<v Speaker 1>loved it. I loved it that that makes everything a

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:30.040
<v Speaker 1>lot more interesting in the NFC. I guess the Cardinals

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:33.679
<v Speaker 1>are in a slump. Huh oh, here we go on

0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.840
<v Speaker 1>in two weeks. Yeah, the bye week they could win

0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:40.640
<v Speaker 1>on the bye week. They are three and three in

0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:45.160
<v Speaker 1>their last six games. Interesting was the Cowboys? Oh, there

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:52.960
<v Speaker 1>you go, we are we are two out of and

0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:56.400
<v Speaker 1>so yes, the Cowboys are now just one game back

0:01:57.000 --> 0:02:00.680
<v Speaker 1>in the race for the top record in the National

0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 1>Football Conference. The only problem is there are three teams

0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:07.440
<v Speaker 1>ahead of them, and one's even with them, the Rams

0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:11.680
<v Speaker 1>as well, and they can only do something about one

0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:15.560
<v Speaker 1>of them on their own, right play Arizona. Have you

0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:18.800
<v Speaker 1>done the research on tiebreakers and stuff? If it was

0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:22.000
<v Speaker 1>a multiple team tie with these You alluded to it

0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>yesterday that the calif two team seven and one conference

0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:30.520
<v Speaker 1>record or NFC record is the other than head to

0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:32.960
<v Speaker 1>head NFC records next, But I think if it's a

0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:37.640
<v Speaker 1>three team tie, then you still head to head, and

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:42.040
<v Speaker 1>if somebody's head to head, the loser gets So let's say,

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:45.440
<v Speaker 1>let's just throw this out there forget about green Bay

0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:49.119
<v Speaker 1>for now, because Cowboys haven't played green Bay all right,

0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:52.239
<v Speaker 1>They played Tampa Bay and they've played and they will

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.239
<v Speaker 1>have played Arizona. Let's say it's a three way tie,

0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know if Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay's probably

0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>hasn't played Arizona. I don't know if they. Okay, so

0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:04.519
<v Speaker 1>there you go. But we do know Dallas lost to

0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Bay and would have tamp put Green Bays in there. Yeah,

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Green Bays. I just threw them out. Oh you got

0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:14.400
<v Speaker 1>just for now because the Cowboys hadn't played him. I

0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:16.640
<v Speaker 1>was trying to figure out a head to head scenario.

0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:19.840
<v Speaker 1>But all right, you have conference records in front of you.

0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to dive right into this, right I do

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 1>not have conference records in front of me. I can

0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:31.400
<v Speaker 1>get them pretty quickly here, but I think, um, most

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:35.360
<v Speaker 1>of the teams are three losses, some of them have two.

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.440
<v Speaker 1>All right, I got your conference records in front of

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 1>me now right here, Okay, conference for the Cowboys seven

0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:46.880
<v Speaker 1>and one. Right for the Packers they are eight and two.

0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Right now, the Bucks are six and three in the conference,

0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:57.000
<v Speaker 1>and the Cardinals are six and three in the conference.

0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys have nothing but conference games left. We're gonna let's see.

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:06.320
<v Speaker 1>You want to paint the scenario of the Cowboys. You

0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:08.200
<v Speaker 1>think the Cowboys gotta win out to be in the

0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:10.960
<v Speaker 1>hunt for the number one seed, don't you think I

0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:16.840
<v Speaker 1>would think. So, we're talking about record, especially with as

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:18.680
<v Speaker 1>many teams ahead of them, at least got to go

0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:21.600
<v Speaker 1>three and one, so that would be And they hear them,

0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:23.760
<v Speaker 1>and they're playing well. They're not just ahead of them,

0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:27.520
<v Speaker 1>they're playing Tampa's playing well. Green Bay's playing well. Right,

0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:33.040
<v Speaker 1>So let's let's say the Cowboys went out thirteen and four, okay,

0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:37.919
<v Speaker 1>and Tampa's not gonna lose. You got the New Carleans, Carolina,

0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:44.000
<v Speaker 1>the Jets Carolina. Okay, so we're gonna sun. Then that

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.560
<v Speaker 1>makes it all a moot point. Yeah, okay, let's move

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:53.840
<v Speaker 1>on to something. Let's go to be Tampa Bay by

0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:57.080
<v Speaker 1>the way. There you go, Well, so there you go.

0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Let's okay, it is an interesting league that we are

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:06.480
<v Speaker 1>playing in here. Strange things do happen. So Washington beat Tampa.

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.640
<v Speaker 1>No I was wrong about that, No, No, they did. Okay,

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 1>try Washington beat Tampa if they can lose, if they

0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 1>can lose to Washington, all right, So let's just say

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:21.279
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Bay loses a game. Okay, we need we would

0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:25.279
<v Speaker 1>then need a third team that would be in the

0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:28.880
<v Speaker 1>hunt with the with the Cowboys there and Arizona got

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:33.360
<v Speaker 1>so you would need Arizona to only lose the one

0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 1>more game to the Cowboys and then there would be

0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:37.760
<v Speaker 1>a three way tie. You need, but you need the

0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Packers to lose twice in that case. But if okay,

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:44.000
<v Speaker 1>it's a four way tie, let's the Packers lose once.

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Who the Packers got left? Packers have Baltimore, Cleveland, Minnesota, Detroit.

0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:52.440
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's the that's what we need to figure out.

0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:57.000
<v Speaker 1>If and we just did with the conference records, if

0:05:57.040 --> 0:06:00.840
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys, Packers, Bucks, and card Knolls wind up in

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:03.599
<v Speaker 1>a four way tie, meaning the Cowboys went out and

0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 1>all three of the others lose a game, the Cowboys

0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:08.560
<v Speaker 1>will have the number one seed because they will have

0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:11.480
<v Speaker 1>the better conference record. Yeah, that's correct. There you go,

0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 1>we figured it out if they went out. If they

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:17.000
<v Speaker 1>went out, Cowboys have to win out and the other

0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:20.520
<v Speaker 1>three would have to lose one game in Arizona. Yeah,

0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 1>they need to start scoring touchdowns. Well, as long as

0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:25.880
<v Speaker 1>the defense is playing like this, I mean, we don't

0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 1>just Cowboys do not want to be in a head

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 1>to head tie with Tampa Bay, right, because just just

0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:35.200
<v Speaker 1>a two way tie with Tampa Bay. If having all

0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>of our defenders back, and this is an indication of

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>how they're going to play the rest of the season.

0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Just relax, okay, you know, just relax. I mean, come on,

0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:48.080
<v Speaker 1>do just take your shirt off and get a tan

0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:51.240
<v Speaker 1>or something. We'll just have We'll just have home game

0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:53.120
<v Speaker 1>after home. Take your shirt off, and you can go

0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:57.159
<v Speaker 1>to Cobo with a first round by, right, you, and

0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 1>that I just think promo. But again, I think we

0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:07.440
<v Speaker 1>mentioned it yesterday. Even regardless of the first round by,

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 1>you would like to have the second seed, so you

0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 1>make sure you get one of those like Washington in

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>the first round. Yeah, not the Rams, by the way,

0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:22.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't like playing a team three times, yeah in

0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:25.480
<v Speaker 1>the season, No, especially in a month which that would

0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 1>be the case at all. That certainly didn't help the

0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys out in twenty two thousand and seven, right, that

0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 1>beat the Giants both times and then lost in the

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:42.440
<v Speaker 1>I guess it was the second round of the play. Yeah,

0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>three seasons. Well, uh, the Giants beat at that time

0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>the Redskins three times in nineteen eighty six, correct, Yes,

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:58.760
<v Speaker 1>they were beating up. Uh, you said, named Schrader. Schrader. Yeah,

0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:02.640
<v Speaker 1>they beat him up all the whole season, and everyone

0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:06.600
<v Speaker 1>thought that that third game Washington was gonna prevail. And

0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:09.680
<v Speaker 1>that was one of the toughest Giant teams you ever

0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:12.080
<v Speaker 1>want to see, because they beat them three games that

0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:14.520
<v Speaker 1>season and we went on to win the Super Bowl.

0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 1>But they priority is to win ten games this week.

0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:24.600
<v Speaker 1>That means this week against a four and nine Giants

0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:28.360
<v Speaker 1>team that's on its backup quarterback Mike Lennon. And if

0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:33.000
<v Speaker 1>not him, then from Jake Frome or from from is

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:36.800
<v Speaker 1>it from Georgia? Quarterback? It's from he's lying. I don't

0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:39.200
<v Speaker 1>think I thought it take from It's from Okay, I

0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:43.600
<v Speaker 1>thought it was from from Georgia. From Georgia, from killing

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:47.600
<v Speaker 1>them from Georgia and the guy that gave the Cowboys

0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 1>a whole bunch of trouble the first time around. Cadarius

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:54.520
<v Speaker 1>Tony is out with COVID like half the league. It

0:08:54.520 --> 0:09:02.080
<v Speaker 1>looks like thirty seven guys tested positive on Monday, including

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:09.040
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys Cedric Wilson, who's been vaccinated. So if five

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:12.439
<v Speaker 1>days work out for him and he's and he's healthy,

0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 1>he could play by Sunday. And how about this, Washington

0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:22.559
<v Speaker 1>had five of those guys test positive on Monday, so

0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:25.440
<v Speaker 1>they had five more because they had two on Saturday.

0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Sunday back defensive ends to start five, including Jonathan Allen. Okay,

0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 1>so they've got the spread continues there, so that I

0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:41.960
<v Speaker 1>was gonna say that vote well for Cowboy. The Cowboys

0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 1>had to test on Monday, Okay. Yeah, is now is

0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:50.720
<v Speaker 1>the league wide daily testing continuing the post Thanksgiving vaccinated daily?

0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:54.800
<v Speaker 1>It was it was supposed to go through December fifth, okay,

0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:57.920
<v Speaker 1>and then it was back to weekly on Monday. Okay.

0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:01.440
<v Speaker 1>So it looks like the cowb Boys should be clear

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:05.400
<v Speaker 1>then other than Cedric Wilson. And I say other than

0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:09.200
<v Speaker 1>but with Noah Brown out, if he's not back, then

0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:13.199
<v Speaker 1>a Malik Turners the fourth receiver, Yeah, good with him,

0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and there he's been. He's been decent, but you lose

0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 1>your fourth and fifth wide receiver and not to mention

0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:22.240
<v Speaker 1>the special team's position. And then we find out after

0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>we finished our show that Tyrn Smith is definitely going

0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:28.600
<v Speaker 1>to miss this game and still up in the air,

0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:32.120
<v Speaker 1>and we probably would find out after our show today

0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 1>if elc Leal Collins is suspended or not he's not

0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:39.040
<v Speaker 1>going to be sure, you don't think so. He's already

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.640
<v Speaker 1>been suspended. He got kicked out of the game. Yeah,

0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:45.400
<v Speaker 1>but they want a full game time, right, I mean, yeah,

0:10:45.600 --> 0:10:47.319
<v Speaker 1>let's say he comes back in the second half of

0:10:47.400 --> 0:10:53.280
<v Speaker 1>next game, right, like college. See, my only my only

0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:56.880
<v Speaker 1>concern about it is it's one thing to you know,

0:10:57.240 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 1>do the roughing thing, but when you throw a punch,

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:03.840
<v Speaker 1>the league has a problem with that. And I think

0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.920
<v Speaker 1>he ended up throwing two and he should have known that, right.

0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, there's there's a there's a line that you

0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:12.600
<v Speaker 1>don't cost you could you could confrontation. That's great confrontation, yeah,

0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:14.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, chest up. Yeah, but then once you start

0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.520
<v Speaker 1>hitting to the head and it's one blows, then that's

0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 1>no longer. That's potential bench clearing incident. Well, but the

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:26.000
<v Speaker 1>league likes so much, yes, right, yeah, Yeah, he's he's good.

0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:30.520
<v Speaker 1>He's he's good for the bottom line. How much has

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:34.440
<v Speaker 1>he contributed? I bet it's another thirteen thousand. Man, he

0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:37.400
<v Speaker 1>didn't seed lamb board. Although maybe Dak will give him

0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:43.839
<v Speaker 1>a Christmas charities, right, maybe he was defending the quarterbacks

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.840
<v Speaker 1>on her right, So, but yeah, he can't help with

0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:49.600
<v Speaker 1>the suspension. So hey, man, wait man, wait man, So

0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:53.360
<v Speaker 1>what about Zeke? What about him? Come on man, we

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:56.200
<v Speaker 1>saw we saw the incident. I mean, come on man.

0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:59.000
<v Speaker 1>They asked us if he didn't he didn't do anything. Well,

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:02.040
<v Speaker 1>he just pushed. Is that all good? Yeah? Yeah, it

0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:05.319
<v Speaker 1>more like a hit. But you know it wasn't just

0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 1>a push. I mean he kind of threw his whole body.

0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Did you notice. Did you notice, by the way, who

0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:16.760
<v Speaker 1>was standing by watching McCarthy very fatherly was mccarth. He

0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:21.760
<v Speaker 1>didn't move you looking for punches, right, but he didn't.

0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.880
<v Speaker 1>He did look like a proud papa. Yeah, he didn't smile.

0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.320
<v Speaker 1>He didn't smile. He was like but he didn't make

0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:30.400
<v Speaker 1>a move to break it up either. He looked stern. Yeah,

0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:34.520
<v Speaker 1>he looked. He looked like, wow, okay, okay, get them sorry,

0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:38.200
<v Speaker 1>get them sorry. That's what we needed last year, That's right,

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, at the same place last year in Dalton.

0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Until until you lose. That was with a all back

0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:47.439
<v Speaker 1>up offensive alignment, until you lose both offensive tackles from

0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the way. Never a good thing. Uh.

0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:54.840
<v Speaker 1>And the way they played it uh ted to Secki

0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.880
<v Speaker 1>came in for because they were using steel as that

0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:02.960
<v Speaker 1>like second or third tight end blocking um. They brought

0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:05.880
<v Speaker 1>tight in the second end at left tackle, and then

0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:10.160
<v Speaker 1>when Elc got thrown out, Steele went to right tackle.

0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:14.720
<v Speaker 1>So it sounded like Steele would take over at left tackle,

0:13:14.840 --> 0:13:18.200
<v Speaker 1>but well that's yet to be determined. I'm still loving

0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.920
<v Speaker 1>this stubbornness that we have to run the ball, you know,

0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:23.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it doesn't matter who's back there. You know,

0:13:23.840 --> 0:13:26.920
<v Speaker 1>we're giving him a shot. Clement, it doesn't matter. Pollard,

0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:30.560
<v Speaker 1>they they they just kept, you know, kept plugging away

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.600
<v Speaker 1>at it. I think eventually if we can just get

0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:36.680
<v Speaker 1>this offensive lines of confidence, they do enough of pugging

0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:38.920
<v Speaker 1>away at it. They do a pass, I've been recepted

0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:41.599
<v Speaker 1>for a touchdown. Why don't do this? Why do we

0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.560
<v Speaker 1>do this? Because they can't run the football, but you have,

0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:49.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you just can't a choice. But I watched

0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:51.319
<v Speaker 1>these other games and I see, like, you know, when

0:13:51.320 --> 0:13:53.400
<v Speaker 1>the guy hits the hole, he's got two yards to

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:57.600
<v Speaker 1>side of him. Man, I haven't seen one Michelle. Michelle

0:13:57.679 --> 0:14:01.040
<v Speaker 1>was killing it against the Cardinals. WHOA, It's like, what

0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:04.720
<v Speaker 1>happened to the holes? What? What's going on? It's because

0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Zeke can't run. Yeah, there's a reason why hit a wall.

0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:12.160
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to run. You know, even I hate to

0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:15.839
<v Speaker 1>mention his name, but even Babe Luffingberg, he talked about

0:14:15.840 --> 0:14:19.520
<v Speaker 1>how he studied last week's game and he was right.

0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:24.960
<v Speaker 1>They weren't moving, no offensive lineman. There was no movement.

0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Why can't people see that there's no movement? I mean

0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:30.560
<v Speaker 1>every time he gets the ball, they are waiting on

0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:33.840
<v Speaker 1>him and they are they are not even engaged. They

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:36.960
<v Speaker 1>are they have the control of the lineman. Therefore they

0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:41.680
<v Speaker 1>can disengage make a play whenever they want. So until

0:14:41.760 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 1>that gets fixed, then you have a problem because now

0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:49.160
<v Speaker 1>you're you're in second and eight, third and seven, third

0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:52.840
<v Speaker 1>and nine two high safeties, yeah yeah, and you're not

0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 1>bringing the safety down. You're not the ball, and they're coming.

0:14:55.880 --> 0:15:00.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, they're coming with four, So pressure with four.

0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:03.440
<v Speaker 1>I did a study, and we can do this. After

0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:09.120
<v Speaker 1>the break on, they had five five legitimate red zone possessions.

0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:11.720
<v Speaker 1>The sixth one was the kneel down at the end,

0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:14.520
<v Speaker 1>so they were one for six on touchdowns. And I

0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:18.840
<v Speaker 1>went through and looked at the plays for those for

0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:21.520
<v Speaker 1>those possessions. So if you and we'll dive into there

0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:25.480

0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:13.639
<v Speaker 1>was a flawless laws uncomfortable. Yeah, we need to do

0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:15.600
<v Speaker 1>that every day. We need to talk him up right

0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:18.800
<v Speaker 1>up to the point of no return um. Which is

0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:20.840
<v Speaker 1>sort of funny because I can remember back in the

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:25.480
<v Speaker 1>day covering basketball games at courtside and writing during the

0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:28.359
<v Speaker 1>game with all the noise in the stands. Never bothered me.

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:31.000
<v Speaker 1>But if I'm there by myself and then there's just

0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:36.120
<v Speaker 1>one person shouting, I want to strangle after a game. Yeah,

0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:40.960
<v Speaker 1>like golf, right, yeah, exactly, Just give me consistent noise.

0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:43.160
<v Speaker 1>All right. There are several things you want to get into.

0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:47.560
<v Speaker 1>So I mentioned the testing in the league, and there's

0:18:47.560 --> 0:18:52.920
<v Speaker 1>been a bunch of outbreaks Cleveland last week, a bunch

0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:56.920
<v Speaker 1>of teams having problems. So the NFL sent out a

0:18:57.040 --> 0:19:05.040
<v Speaker 1>mandate yesterday that all Tier one in Tier two individuals, UH,

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:09.359
<v Speaker 1>we'll have to if they're eligible for it, need to

0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:13.520
<v Speaker 1>have a booster shot no later than December twenty seventh

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:17.320
<v Speaker 1>of this year. Now that obviously doesn't include players, as

0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:21.200
<v Speaker 1>Jerry was explaining this morning, because of the nfl PA

0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:25.320
<v Speaker 1>they in the union, they can't mandate players get vaccinated.

0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:31.119
<v Speaker 1>So all coaches and anybody in the front office or

0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:35.800
<v Speaker 1>they're connected with the team on the charter flight, Uh,

0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:40.280
<v Speaker 1>in practice in the locker room. Uh, if they are

0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 1>have passed the second dose, what is it? Six months?

0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Two months? On Jay and Jay, you have to get

0:19:52.840 --> 0:19:58.760
<v Speaker 1>a booster shot by the twenty seventh and if you don't,

0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:02.840
<v Speaker 1>then you're not allowed to be around the team. And

0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:07.160
<v Speaker 1>but if you've had COVID within the last ninety days,

0:20:07.240 --> 0:20:09.840
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to have the booster until ninety because

0:20:09.840 --> 0:20:14.359
<v Speaker 1>you're probably not knowing that. Yeah, there's there's things. But

0:20:14.720 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned Cadarius Tony just the second time he's tested. Pause.

0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:22.520
<v Speaker 1>This guy is a Tasmanian devil. He's all over the

0:20:22.600 --> 0:20:26.040
<v Speaker 1>place on the field, right and off the field. You

0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:28.639
<v Speaker 1>saw him. How he's amazing. I mean, he's just a

0:20:28.880 --> 0:20:33.080
<v Speaker 1>dynamic receiver. But you look at him. Even on the sidelines,

0:20:33.280 --> 0:20:34.760
<v Speaker 1>they're trying to tend to him. I think it was

0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:38.439
<v Speaker 1>the first game this year. He's so upset about hurting

0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>his foot or something. He makes this move and just

0:20:42.080 --> 0:20:45.880
<v Speaker 1>shows his anger at at the injury and he head

0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:49.720
<v Speaker 1>butts of one of the physicians in the face while

0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:52.080
<v Speaker 1>he's doing that. And every time you look up, he's

0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:56.240
<v Speaker 1>either injured, wanted to fight somebody, or he's going off

0:20:56.440 --> 0:20:59.199
<v Speaker 1>off the field. I mean, he's just he's just all

0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:01.760
<v Speaker 1>over the place. Wouldn't give him up. He's an angry bird,

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:03.880
<v Speaker 1>that's what he is. Angry. He's an angry bird. He's

0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 1>all over the place knocking things over. So anyway, that's

0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:09.359
<v Speaker 1>the new thing in the NFL right now. So boosters

0:21:09.480 --> 0:21:15.360
<v Speaker 1>are important, and uh tier two. I mean it's it's

0:21:15.400 --> 0:21:17.440
<v Speaker 1>people that it would be in contact with the locker

0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:23.520
<v Speaker 1>room basically. Yeah, so so trainers, um janet, front office staff,

0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:29.720
<v Speaker 1>un office staff, the equipment guys, anyway, interactions practice field, yeah,

0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:34.560
<v Speaker 1>in house media who are have access to the and

0:21:34.760 --> 0:21:40.000
<v Speaker 1>for for example, Nick Eatman, he's too tier two Okay,

0:21:40.160 --> 0:21:44.000
<v Speaker 1>because he can two m which is too media two

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 1>media meeting you are, so you are are not allowed

0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:51.280
<v Speaker 1>to interview the players like in the locker room after

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:54.000
<v Speaker 1>after the game in the hallway the way Nick does

0:21:54.640 --> 0:21:59.479
<v Speaker 1>the extra players that don't go into the interview room. Yeah, okay.

0:21:59.800 --> 0:22:05.879
<v Speaker 1>And along those lines, Kansas City Chris Beam was informing

0:22:05.960 --> 0:22:09.479
<v Speaker 1>me that while I saw that Chris Jones had tested positive. Yes,

0:22:09.880 --> 0:22:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the Chiefs defensive tackle and Andy Reid, according to Chris Beam.

0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:18.160
<v Speaker 1>And but the interesting thing about the Chiefs apparently who

0:22:18.160 --> 0:22:21.200
<v Speaker 1>they are. Oh, never mind, we'll move on then. All right, Mickey,

0:22:21.280 --> 0:22:23.920
<v Speaker 1>what else you got? I thought I had time to

0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:29.760
<v Speaker 1>look my stuff up. You Chris on a tangent. He

0:22:30.560 --> 0:22:39.000
<v Speaker 1>anticipated your needs. All right. So when um, Kellen Moore

0:22:39.160 --> 0:22:43.720
<v Speaker 1>did his interview yesterday, and you know, they were trying

0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:46.760
<v Speaker 1>to get him on the slump. You know, okay, the

0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:51.760
<v Speaker 1>offense is what's the problem. And his point was, um,

0:22:54.200 --> 0:22:58.119
<v Speaker 1>they're they're failing once they get inside the red zone.

0:22:58.640 --> 0:23:02.320
<v Speaker 1>And he kind of used the term. He goes, we

0:23:02.520 --> 0:23:05.560
<v Speaker 1>got stuck down there in the red zone and that

0:23:05.720 --> 0:23:09.320
<v Speaker 1>can drive you crazy. Drives me crazy when we get

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:13.600
<v Speaker 1>stuck there a little bit. Because we had some nice

0:23:13.720 --> 0:23:18.360
<v Speaker 1>flow to what was going on, and so I went

0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:22.520
<v Speaker 1>and looked at their red zone possessions and not the

0:23:22.640 --> 0:23:25.600
<v Speaker 1>last one when they knelt down right. So the first one,

0:23:25.680 --> 0:23:29.800
<v Speaker 1>they're first and ten at the twenty after Zeke's fifteen

0:23:29.960 --> 0:23:34.280
<v Speaker 1>yard catch run. So they get down to the twenty. Well,

0:23:35.680 --> 0:23:38.800
<v Speaker 1>they take Zeke out fifteen yard run, I guess, give

0:23:38.880 --> 0:23:44.119
<v Speaker 1>him a blow. So first down, Clement comes in. They

0:23:44.240 --> 0:23:47.600
<v Speaker 1>go heavy Steel as the second tight end, and they

0:23:47.720 --> 0:23:53.040
<v Speaker 1>run for zero yards. So now it's second down. Dak

0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:55.760
<v Speaker 1>tries to run out of the pocket because of pressure.

0:23:55.880 --> 0:24:00.800
<v Speaker 1>He gets sacked for zero yards. Now it's third and ten. Okay,

0:24:01.000 --> 0:24:05.120
<v Speaker 1>now you're third and ten at the twenty. You're trying

0:24:05.160 --> 0:24:07.359
<v Speaker 1>to make sure you at least get something, I guess.

0:24:07.680 --> 0:24:10.920
<v Speaker 1>So they tried the wide receiver screen to Cooper and

0:24:11.040 --> 0:24:15.359
<v Speaker 1>they get three yards. So what happens you get a

0:24:15.440 --> 0:24:18.760
<v Speaker 1>field goal. The next time was the time they scored

0:24:18.800 --> 0:24:21.160
<v Speaker 1>the touchdown. It was first and ten at the twelve.

0:24:21.920 --> 0:24:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Zeke goes for five second in five at the seven,

0:24:26.359 --> 0:24:29.720
<v Speaker 1>and Tyron Smith gets called for not being on the

0:24:29.800 --> 0:24:32.480
<v Speaker 1>line of scrimmage. So minus five you're saying that was

0:24:32.600 --> 0:24:36.720
<v Speaker 1>the shovel pass. The fake pitch shovel pass, but it

0:24:36.880 --> 0:24:39.000
<v Speaker 1>was the penalty that pushed him back, pushed him back

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:43.680
<v Speaker 1>to second and ten at the twelve incomplete, and then

0:24:44.240 --> 0:24:48.280
<v Speaker 1>they hit the touchdown pass to Cooper. The third time,

0:24:48.440 --> 0:24:53.000
<v Speaker 1>they were second in five at the nineteen, Dack's under pressure.

0:24:53.200 --> 0:24:56.880
<v Speaker 1>He's hired a CD at the at the goal line, incomplete,

0:24:57.440 --> 0:25:00.879
<v Speaker 1>third and five at the nineteen pressure end, and he

0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.639
<v Speaker 1>just tries to dump it over the middle to Zeke.

0:25:04.119 --> 0:25:08.119
<v Speaker 1>It's incomplete. Field goal. The next time, first and ten

0:25:08.200 --> 0:25:10.920
<v Speaker 1>at the eleven at the eleven, where are we in

0:25:10.960 --> 0:25:14.159
<v Speaker 1>the game? Now? Uh? This is the This should be

0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:18.440
<v Speaker 1>the end of the end of the second quarter. Maybe

0:25:18.760 --> 0:25:21.399
<v Speaker 1>because they kicked a field goal at the end, right, Okay,

0:25:22.600 --> 0:25:27.000
<v Speaker 1>first and ten are all first half. He gets sat

0:25:27.240 --> 0:25:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Now I think he held the ball a little too long,

0:25:29.520 --> 0:25:33.000
<v Speaker 1>but still it's a sack. So instead of first and

0:25:33.080 --> 0:25:36.080
<v Speaker 1>ten at eleven, now you're second and eighteen at the nineteen,

0:25:36.720 --> 0:25:39.879
<v Speaker 1>Gallup drops a pass. He's wide open. He's trying to

0:25:40.000 --> 0:25:43.359
<v Speaker 1>run with it before he catches it. Now third and

0:25:43.520 --> 0:25:46.480
<v Speaker 1>eighteen at the nineteen, nobody's open. He tries to do

0:25:47.560 --> 0:25:50.560
<v Speaker 1>with it. I think you would have gained yardage at

0:25:50.640 --> 0:25:53.760
<v Speaker 1>least some of that eighteen. I don't think he would

0:25:53.760 --> 0:25:56.000
<v Speaker 1>have got all the eighteen, but he got at least

0:25:56.080 --> 0:25:58.320
<v Speaker 1>half of it. Now you're third and eighteen and you're

0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:01.000
<v Speaker 1>sitting there going are right, what do we do? Well?

0:26:01.200 --> 0:26:04.160
<v Speaker 1>No one's open again, and he dumps it over the middle.

0:26:04.400 --> 0:26:08.040
<v Speaker 1>It was just a desperate dump incomplete. It's a field goal.

0:26:08.640 --> 0:26:11.640
<v Speaker 1>And then in the second half their first and ten,

0:26:11.720 --> 0:26:14.840
<v Speaker 1>at the fifteen, Clement runs for three, and that's when

0:26:14.920 --> 0:26:18.119
<v Speaker 1>Tyrn gets hurt out of the game. So second and

0:26:18.200 --> 0:26:21.960
<v Speaker 1>seven at the twelve, he throws it to Schultz. It

0:26:22.080 --> 0:26:24.199
<v Speaker 1>looked like he's gonna catch it. He gets hit by

0:26:24.240 --> 0:26:28.080
<v Speaker 1>the defensive back and it's incomplete. And then third and

0:26:28.280 --> 0:26:33.040
<v Speaker 1>seven they threw a little out to Clement. It only

0:26:33.119 --> 0:26:35.879
<v Speaker 1>got two, but if they had gotten a touchdown, they

0:26:36.000 --> 0:26:40.840
<v Speaker 1>called past interference on Ceedee Lamb for basically blocking two. Soon,

0:26:41.400 --> 0:26:45.399
<v Speaker 1>so another field goal. So they got there, but they

0:26:45.480 --> 0:26:51.480
<v Speaker 1>cannot do anything the n zone. That whole four field goals,

0:26:51.960 --> 0:26:54.640
<v Speaker 1>you know. And and so you get a sack in one,

0:26:54.760 --> 0:26:58.040
<v Speaker 1>a penalty, another, a sack in a drop in the other,

0:26:58.440 --> 0:27:02.399
<v Speaker 1>and then another penalty. It's like, okay, so why did

0:27:02.480 --> 0:27:04.840
<v Speaker 1>you and some of that the defense helped you to

0:27:04.920 --> 0:27:09.080
<v Speaker 1>get there, right, but you got there and you're not converting.

0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:12.359
<v Speaker 1>That's five times. Those are five times in events I believe. Yes,

0:27:12.640 --> 0:27:15.320
<v Speaker 1>that's good, but you didn't do anything. But you didn't

0:27:15.320 --> 0:27:18.600
<v Speaker 1>do anything right. Yeah, And that's why Kellen Moore said

0:27:18.800 --> 0:27:22.320
<v Speaker 1>it makes me crazy. But also part of that is

0:27:22.720 --> 0:27:24.920
<v Speaker 1>you're not taking chance. You've got a twenty like on

0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:26.639
<v Speaker 1>the last one, you got a twenty one nothing right,

0:27:26.800 --> 0:27:29.520
<v Speaker 1>you just say, okay, sure, let's get the points, you know,

0:27:29.680 --> 0:27:33.480
<v Speaker 1>and these against especially against that team which has no

0:27:33.680 --> 0:27:37.000
<v Speaker 1>chance of coming back against that defense, unless you throw

0:27:37.040 --> 0:27:42.200
<v Speaker 1>a pick six in the fourth quarter or you have one,

0:27:42.320 --> 0:27:44.320
<v Speaker 1>then just you can go ahead and kick your field

0:27:44.400 --> 0:27:46.639
<v Speaker 1>goals if you're gonna bawl out, yeah, or you have

0:27:46.840 --> 0:27:51.000
<v Speaker 1>one one bad possession right where they I mean all

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:53.520
<v Speaker 1>they had was one possession that they drove down the

0:27:53.600 --> 0:27:56.560
<v Speaker 1>field right or a touchdown right and then to pick

0:27:56.640 --> 0:28:00.200
<v Speaker 1>six and then to pick six and so yeah, so

0:28:01.960 --> 0:28:05.800
<v Speaker 1>and then okay, the quarterback slumping, well, is his slump

0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:10.000
<v Speaker 1>because he got sacked five times, getting hits and got

0:28:10.119 --> 0:28:12.560
<v Speaker 1>hit four more times and had to run out of

0:28:12.600 --> 0:28:16.120
<v Speaker 1>the pocket seven times. Seven And that's this is one game.

0:28:16.160 --> 0:28:18.200
<v Speaker 1>We're talking yea, yeah, we're not talking about the Saints

0:28:18.240 --> 0:28:20.640
<v Speaker 1>game as well. You know to what these same things

0:28:20.680 --> 0:28:25.600
<v Speaker 1>will happen, so you know, and and and then it

0:28:25.760 --> 0:28:29.119
<v Speaker 1>was like the criticism going into the game because I

0:28:29.280 --> 0:28:32.480
<v Speaker 1>think at some point somebody said, I don't remember for

0:28:32.520 --> 0:28:36.080
<v Speaker 1>it was Kellen and McCarthy said, yeah, sometimes Dak sees

0:28:36.200 --> 0:28:39.800
<v Speaker 1>things so fast he didn't wait to develop. He's reading

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:42.080
<v Speaker 1>them and he's getting the ball out. So that was

0:28:42.160 --> 0:28:45.520
<v Speaker 1>the story, right, He's trying to throw the past too fast.

0:28:45.640 --> 0:28:48.640
<v Speaker 1>He's he's not letting things read out. Well, he ain't

0:28:48.640 --> 0:28:50.440
<v Speaker 1>got time to let it read out, that is it.

0:28:50.880 --> 0:28:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Otherwise he'll have a dozen feels. He can feel them

0:28:53.720 --> 0:28:56.560
<v Speaker 1>around him, right, he can. He can feel them every time.

0:28:56.920 --> 0:28:59.880
<v Speaker 1>And that's not ghosts. They are there for real, right,

0:29:00.280 --> 0:29:03.080
<v Speaker 1>These guys are putting pressure on every time without even blitzing.

0:29:03.440 --> 0:29:05.920
<v Speaker 1>And that's what West, what is scary because now you

0:29:05.960 --> 0:29:08.520
<v Speaker 1>don't need to You can't do a hot route right

0:29:08.640 --> 0:29:11.280
<v Speaker 1>because they're coming with pressure with four men. You have

0:29:11.400 --> 0:29:13.880
<v Speaker 1>to stick with the plate are Therefore the timing is

0:29:13.920 --> 0:29:15.960
<v Speaker 1>off and you get a little antswing back then, but

0:29:16.120 --> 0:29:18.000
<v Speaker 1>you got their bill. Well, I was going to ask

0:29:18.080 --> 0:29:20.280
<v Speaker 1>what do you like to dive further into this in

0:29:20.400 --> 0:29:22.600
<v Speaker 1>their last segment or do you have something else that

0:32:11.840 --> 0:32:14.240

0:32:20.400 --> 0:32:22.960

0:32:25.400 --> 0:32:28.320
<v Speaker 1>sold out. That's why I got an extra and in

0:32:28.440 --> 0:32:31.800
<v Speaker 1>there because I was ready for and the football camps

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:36.240
<v Speaker 1>we didn't. We didn't go to football camp. See in

0:32:36.280 --> 0:32:40.560
<v Speaker 1>February that I've been told. Okay, all right, By the way,

0:32:40.960 --> 0:32:43.920
<v Speaker 1>speaking of February, since the Super Bowl is now pushed

0:32:43.960 --> 0:32:46.880
<v Speaker 1>back another week. February is going to be February every

0:32:47.200 --> 0:32:49.920
<v Speaker 1>every year is one of the worst months for sports.

0:32:50.120 --> 0:32:53.800
<v Speaker 1>It's just because the Super Bowls over the first week

0:32:53.960 --> 0:32:58.920
<v Speaker 1>and there's nothing, you know, March Mann has hadn't started yet.

0:32:58.960 --> 0:33:01.640
<v Speaker 1>It's always the worst sports month of the year. And

0:33:01.680 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be so much better this year because

0:33:03.720 --> 0:33:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the Super Bowls are being played in mid February, because

0:33:06.600 --> 0:33:10.120
<v Speaker 1>of the seventeen week season, and so from a sports standpoint,

0:33:10.240 --> 0:33:12.200
<v Speaker 1>February is not going to be bad at all. It's

0:33:12.200 --> 0:33:16.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like two weeks after the well is it combined?

0:33:16.560 --> 0:33:18.800
<v Speaker 1>Do they push that back at all? Chris? Do you

0:33:18.880 --> 0:33:21.440
<v Speaker 1>know it's usually the last week. It's usually the last

0:33:21.840 --> 0:33:23.880
<v Speaker 1>last week in February, which would be two weeks after

0:33:23.920 --> 0:33:28.080
<v Speaker 1>the Super Bowl. So maybe they pushed back. I haven't

0:33:28.120 --> 0:33:32.680
<v Speaker 1>looked at it all right, all right, dak first six

0:33:32.840 --> 0:33:36.960
<v Speaker 1>games versus last six games. Here are his numbers from

0:33:37.000 --> 0:33:41.920
<v Speaker 1>the first six games of the season. He had a

0:33:42.720 --> 0:33:48.800
<v Speaker 1>seventy three percent completion percentage, yards per attempt, eight point

0:33:48.880 --> 0:33:55.560
<v Speaker 1>four four picks, sixteen touchdowns, fourteen sacks. Cowboys went five

0:33:55.640 --> 0:33:57.520
<v Speaker 1>and one, and of course at the end of that

0:33:57.840 --> 0:34:00.400
<v Speaker 1>was the calf injury on the last play of the

0:34:00.440 --> 0:34:03.680
<v Speaker 1>game against New England. Okay, they missed a game. Cowboys

0:34:03.840 --> 0:34:07.239
<v Speaker 1>have played six games since he came back. No, they've played, yes,

0:34:07.360 --> 0:34:09.840
<v Speaker 1>since he came back. Yep. And what's their record in

0:34:09.920 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 1>those six games? Okay, all right? The completion percentage is

0:34:15.280 --> 0:34:19.279
<v Speaker 1>sixty three percent as opposed to seventy three percent the

0:34:19.360 --> 0:34:23.560
<v Speaker 1>first six games. Yards per attempt six point six as

0:34:23.640 --> 0:34:27.960
<v Speaker 1>opposed to eight point four the first six. The interceptions

0:34:28.000 --> 0:34:31.479
<v Speaker 1>are six, the touchdowns are nine as opposed to four

0:34:31.719 --> 0:34:35.600
<v Speaker 1>and sixteen. The sacks are basically the same, thirteen sacks

0:34:35.680 --> 0:34:41.719
<v Speaker 1>to fourteen sacks. So what's the difference? Why? Why is

0:34:41.800 --> 0:34:49.359
<v Speaker 1>it different? Okay? The Denver game, I can excuse, right,

0:34:50.680 --> 0:34:53.239
<v Speaker 1>and it was one of those games, right, they were

0:34:53.400 --> 0:34:56.719
<v Speaker 1>bound to lose one. They fell behind thirty to nothing,

0:34:56.880 --> 0:35:00.680
<v Speaker 1>so the next game never never caught up. They scored

0:35:04.480 --> 0:35:07.439
<v Speaker 1>were that's because they kicked three field goals and didn't

0:35:07.440 --> 0:35:12.359
<v Speaker 1>score touchdowns. Okay. The next game they scored forty three

0:35:12.440 --> 0:35:20.000
<v Speaker 1>points at Atlanta. Okay, so not bad, right. The next

0:35:20.080 --> 0:35:24.960
<v Speaker 1>game Kansas Kansas City. Kansas City's pretty good, right, But

0:35:25.840 --> 0:35:29.160
<v Speaker 1>in the Kansas City game, there was no AHMRII Cooper

0:35:29.480 --> 0:35:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and no cd Lamb, no Tyrann Smith. Okay, second half

0:35:33.960 --> 0:35:37.960
<v Speaker 1>of the game, all right? Uh? And then they go

0:35:38.239 --> 0:35:44.480
<v Speaker 1>to they play Vegas, scored thirty three points, Okay, fine.

0:35:45.320 --> 0:35:52.279
<v Speaker 1>Then New Orleans the offense basically scores twenty uh two touchdowns. Um.

0:35:52.680 --> 0:35:56.160
<v Speaker 1>You know New Orleans is not bad defense. They have

0:35:56.200 --> 0:36:01.719
<v Speaker 1>a good defense. But um, was that the game no

0:36:02.040 --> 0:36:04.879
<v Speaker 1>Pollard got That's when Polo took it to the house.

0:36:04.960 --> 0:36:07.279
<v Speaker 1>He had the fifty eight yard all right. And then

0:36:07.880 --> 0:36:11.640
<v Speaker 1>and then this last game, no Pollard, but they had

0:36:11.760 --> 0:36:17.560
<v Speaker 1>everybody else back except for the second half your offensive tackles. Uh. Yeah,

0:36:17.719 --> 0:36:21.720
<v Speaker 1>and and they just didn't play well. They had drops

0:36:22.200 --> 0:36:26.640
<v Speaker 1>the pressure. Um. Look, everybody wants to give him an

0:36:26.680 --> 0:36:29.840
<v Speaker 1>excuse that he's not healthy. He's healthy. How did he

0:36:29.960 --> 0:36:32.879
<v Speaker 1>get thirty three points against the Raiders on a short

0:36:32.920 --> 0:36:36.880
<v Speaker 1>week on Thanksgiving? There's nothing wrong with him. The thing

0:36:36.960 --> 0:36:40.399
<v Speaker 1>that's wrong with him is he's under pressure and he's

0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:43.359
<v Speaker 1>trying to make throws that he probably shouldn't be making.

0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:46.560
<v Speaker 1>It's judgment more than it is fatigued. It is judgment.

0:36:46.640 --> 0:36:51.319
<v Speaker 1>He is not confused about anything. He's not every every

0:36:51.400 --> 0:36:55.560
<v Speaker 1>decision he's made has been in those particular situations, has

0:36:55.640 --> 0:36:59.880
<v Speaker 1>been a bad decision because his hesitancy puts him in

0:37:00.160 --> 0:37:04.080
<v Speaker 1>that situation. If he went to I think have a

0:37:04.120 --> 0:37:06.719
<v Speaker 1>little bit more confidence in his legs. And I said this,

0:37:06.800 --> 0:37:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I think yesterday. I think he's just a little bit

0:37:09.280 --> 0:37:12.759
<v Speaker 1>hesitant to run the ball and to me give up

0:37:12.800 --> 0:37:16.239
<v Speaker 1>on the play. Don't be afraid that's up on the play.

0:37:16.280 --> 0:37:20.960
<v Speaker 1>That's right there. He's starting to get stubborn and trying

0:37:21.000 --> 0:37:23.560
<v Speaker 1>to make something out of n And I got a feeling.

0:37:23.640 --> 0:37:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Bill asked the question because he had an answer for

0:37:26.160 --> 0:37:29.400
<v Speaker 1>his own. No. No, I was just no. But as

0:37:29.480 --> 0:37:32.520
<v Speaker 1>you were talking, do you have the stats for the

0:37:32.800 --> 0:37:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys stats in front of you for individual stats for

0:37:35.440 --> 0:37:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the running backs? Uh? Yeah, for this game, for the

0:37:39.719 --> 0:37:43.799
<v Speaker 1>season season, because I've got him through the New England game. Now,

0:37:43.880 --> 0:37:46.239
<v Speaker 1>this isn't six games, but it would be the seven

0:37:46.320 --> 0:37:50.240
<v Speaker 1>games since so zeke one hundred and eighty five carries now, okay,

0:37:51.000 --> 0:37:55.239
<v Speaker 1>for this season eight hundred and ten yards. He's still

0:37:55.320 --> 0:37:58.880
<v Speaker 1>averaging four for a carry. Okay, I'm gonna to do

0:37:59.040 --> 0:38:02.360
<v Speaker 1>some math as you eight touchdowns. Okay, I'm doing some

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:09.920
<v Speaker 1>math as you speak here. WHOA wow, wow? Kind of

0:38:10.000 --> 0:38:14.000
<v Speaker 1>falling off. Wow, because he was on pace for I

0:38:14.280 --> 0:38:19.239
<v Speaker 1>want to say, a fourteen hundred yards season probably after

0:38:19.400 --> 0:38:24.480
<v Speaker 1>six games. Okay, So I get my look calculator out here.

0:38:25.360 --> 0:38:30.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh this is fun. Okay. Prior his first six games

0:38:30.920 --> 0:38:34.080
<v Speaker 1>of the year, he had one hundred two carries for

0:38:34.280 --> 0:38:38.160
<v Speaker 1>five hundred twenty one yards. So that means since then

0:38:38.920 --> 0:38:41.680
<v Speaker 1>he has two hundred and eighty nine yards rushing on

0:38:41.840 --> 0:38:50.120
<v Speaker 1>eighty three carries, which is three point five yards a carry. Okay, okay, Now, Pollard, Pollard,

0:38:51.239 --> 0:38:52.800
<v Speaker 1>what do you have after something? What do you what

0:38:52.840 --> 0:38:54.560
<v Speaker 1>do you have? He mentioned for the season one oh

0:38:54.719 --> 0:38:58.120
<v Speaker 1>seven for six oz two six o two. How many

0:38:58.160 --> 0:39:03.560
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns two sor right one after the first six? Okay,

0:39:04.160 --> 0:39:11.160
<v Speaker 1>so that's forty six and that is two thirty four

0:39:11.320 --> 0:39:17.720
<v Speaker 1>and two thirty six and one okay, forty So prior

0:39:18.120 --> 0:39:21.040
<v Speaker 1>through the New England game, he had sixty one carries

0:39:21.640 --> 0:39:25.560
<v Speaker 1>for three hundred sixty six yards in a touchdown. Since

0:39:25.640 --> 0:39:29.200
<v Speaker 1>the New England game, forty six carries two hundred thirty

0:39:29.280 --> 0:39:32.759
<v Speaker 1>six yards in a touchdown. Two thirty six divided by

0:39:33.080 --> 0:39:36.680
<v Speaker 1>forty six, he's five point one yards of carry. But

0:39:39.120 --> 0:39:41.080
<v Speaker 1>but he had a fifty eight yard run in there.

0:39:41.520 --> 0:39:45.400
<v Speaker 1>So take out forty five carries and take up fifty

0:39:45.480 --> 0:39:48.240
<v Speaker 1>eight from two thirty six and tell me what you got. Okay,

0:39:48.360 --> 0:39:51.800
<v Speaker 1>thirty six twenty two. That's one great math. One seventy

0:39:51.920 --> 0:39:56.480
<v Speaker 1>eight divided by forty five three point nine five four

0:39:56.560 --> 0:40:01.760
<v Speaker 1>yards of carry. There you go. So it's hand in hand. Okay,

0:40:02.600 --> 0:40:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Dak's having problems in the passing game. The biggest difference

0:40:05.880 --> 0:40:08.759
<v Speaker 1>in this offense, I believe since the first six games

0:40:08.800 --> 0:40:11.799
<v Speaker 1>of the season is they're not running the football. They're

0:40:11.800 --> 0:40:14.920
<v Speaker 1>not able to run the football like they did. They

0:40:15.040 --> 0:40:17.680
<v Speaker 1>had the same and we talk about a Zeke look

0:40:17.760 --> 0:40:20.360
<v Speaker 1>like he did his rookie year. The offense was functioning

0:40:20.640 --> 0:40:24.680
<v Speaker 1>like it did in twenty sixteen, because that's right. And

0:40:24.800 --> 0:40:26.960
<v Speaker 1>we were talking about this offensive line looks as good

0:40:26.960 --> 0:40:30.000
<v Speaker 1>as it did right in five years, and we said

0:40:30.000 --> 0:40:33.000
<v Speaker 1>that could take you into the playoffs. And I was

0:40:33.080 --> 0:40:35.719
<v Speaker 1>trying to find this stat but I was trying to

0:40:35.840 --> 0:40:39.719
<v Speaker 1>find you would have to go through each game to see,

0:40:40.320 --> 0:40:43.440
<v Speaker 1>like on second down, how many times on second down?

0:40:43.560 --> 0:40:45.719
<v Speaker 1>Or are they second and eight or second and nine?

0:40:46.680 --> 0:40:48.719
<v Speaker 1>And I started marketing, and I think it was for

0:40:48.840 --> 0:40:52.920
<v Speaker 1>the New Orleans game maybe, and I forgot what my

0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:54.800
<v Speaker 1>total was because I kind of gave I said, this

0:40:54.960 --> 0:40:57.360
<v Speaker 1>is an endless chore here if I'm gonna do it

0:40:57.480 --> 0:41:01.400
<v Speaker 1>for sixteen games, because I figured somewhere out there there's

0:41:01.440 --> 0:41:05.360
<v Speaker 1>a stat on what you face on second down, like

0:41:05.680 --> 0:41:10.240
<v Speaker 1>second and eight to ten, second, six to seven, whatever,

0:41:11.400 --> 0:41:15.000
<v Speaker 1>And it just seems like I chart every play. It

0:41:15.080 --> 0:41:18.200
<v Speaker 1>seems like I'm forever writing second and eight second and

0:41:18.280 --> 0:41:22.040
<v Speaker 1>a second and yes, that is true. Space, it is

0:41:22.120 --> 0:41:25.799
<v Speaker 1>always second, and that causes problems if okay, now you're

0:41:25.840 --> 0:41:28.799
<v Speaker 1>throwing in completion because second down, now, if we get

0:41:28.840 --> 0:41:32.120
<v Speaker 1>three yards, I'm happy right first down, and it actually

0:41:32.840 --> 0:41:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Kellen said four to five and six is really good

0:41:36.480 --> 0:41:42.160
<v Speaker 1>on first down to prevent third and long all the

0:41:42.280 --> 0:41:46.080
<v Speaker 1>time because then they know what they're doing and your

0:41:46.200 --> 0:41:50.000
<v Speaker 1>your play selection is limited. At that point, it was like,

0:41:50.160 --> 0:41:52.439
<v Speaker 1>what was the play? I told you? They were third

0:41:52.480 --> 0:41:56.160
<v Speaker 1>and eighteen at the nineteen or whatever. You know, yeah,

0:41:56.239 --> 0:41:58.680
<v Speaker 1>third and eighteen at the nineteen. Now what are your

0:41:58.760 --> 0:42:01.719
<v Speaker 1>chances of converting that? Right? Better just take the field

0:42:01.760 --> 0:42:06.520
<v Speaker 1>goal and don't screw up the three points? So um, yeah,

0:42:07.560 --> 0:42:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's just across the board, it's not one person. Well,

0:42:13.000 --> 0:42:16.040
<v Speaker 1>and then look at the Dallas defense against Washington. Okay,

0:42:16.080 --> 0:42:19.360
<v Speaker 1>we talk about the sacks that Parsons got, the interception

0:42:19.480 --> 0:42:22.000
<v Speaker 1>by Gregory, but one of the keys in that game

0:42:22.440 --> 0:42:24.680
<v Speaker 1>was they stopped the run. They could do nothing in

0:42:24.719 --> 0:42:27.200
<v Speaker 1>the run game Washington, and that was there. That was

0:42:27.280 --> 0:42:31.319
<v Speaker 1>their calling card running the football. But you but take

0:42:31.360 --> 0:42:33.719
<v Speaker 1>that to the Dallas offense when you can't run the

0:42:33.840 --> 0:42:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Washington couldn't run the ball in that game and so

0:42:36.120 --> 0:42:37.920
<v Speaker 1>they couldn't pass it. Here, I think you didn't look

0:42:37.960 --> 0:42:41.240
<v Speaker 1>like the same guy, the bread far type of player

0:42:41.320 --> 0:42:45.640
<v Speaker 1>that I had called him just last week. It looks like,

0:42:46.200 --> 0:42:47.719
<v Speaker 1>yeah he does. And you looked at me like I

0:42:47.800 --> 0:42:50.440
<v Speaker 1>was crazy, You really think so? I'm like, yeah, he

0:42:50.520 --> 0:42:52.360
<v Speaker 1>does this, does that. I saw none of that in

0:42:52.440 --> 0:42:55.640
<v Speaker 1>the game. And that's because the effectiveness of his running

0:42:55.640 --> 0:42:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the game was taken away. And Gibson, or not just Gibson,

0:42:59.719 --> 0:43:03.040
<v Speaker 1>but Washington last year against the Cowboys in two games,

0:43:03.560 --> 0:43:06.000
<v Speaker 1>and I don't have the exact number, but I want

0:43:06.040 --> 0:43:09.440
<v Speaker 1>to say they ran for combine three hundred and ninety

0:43:09.520 --> 0:43:12.279
<v Speaker 1>yards against the Cowboys in two games last year. Well,

0:43:13.000 --> 0:43:18.239
<v Speaker 1>what have been the two worst defensive performances by the

0:43:18.360 --> 0:43:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys team during this stretch. What are the Dallas defense.

0:43:23.360 --> 0:43:25.799
<v Speaker 1>They're two worst games they've played here in the last

0:43:26.400 --> 0:43:31.120
<v Speaker 1>six weeks. Well, it was Denver for Denver and the Raiders.

0:43:31.120 --> 0:43:34.239
<v Speaker 1>And the Raiders Okay, Denver had one hundred and ninety

0:43:34.320 --> 0:43:37.160
<v Speaker 1>yards rushing on the Dallas defense in that game. They

0:43:37.160 --> 0:43:39.800
<v Speaker 1>had forty one carries for one hundred and ninety yards

0:43:39.840 --> 0:43:42.600
<v Speaker 1>in that game. And the Raiders had one hundred and

0:43:42.600 --> 0:43:45.520
<v Speaker 1>forty three yards on thirty five carries. And it wasn't

0:43:45.560 --> 0:43:48.160
<v Speaker 1>so much that they I mean, that's only four yards

0:43:48.200 --> 0:43:50.799
<v Speaker 1>a carry for the Raiders, but they had the lead

0:43:51.080 --> 0:43:54.040
<v Speaker 1>and they were able to run the football and control

0:43:54.480 --> 0:43:57.600
<v Speaker 1>the game. And Denver certainly did that with forty one

0:43:57.719 --> 0:44:00.120
<v Speaker 1>carries for one hundred and ninety yards. It shows in

0:44:00.200 --> 0:44:02.440
<v Speaker 1>this league, as much as we look at you got

0:44:02.520 --> 0:44:03.880
<v Speaker 1>to be able to throw the ball. Throw the ball,

0:44:03.960 --> 0:44:06.400
<v Speaker 1>throw the ball. But what sets up that throwing the

0:44:06.480 --> 0:44:08.920
<v Speaker 1>ball is the ability to run the football. And I

0:44:09.000 --> 0:44:11.040
<v Speaker 1>think that's a lot of the problems that this passing

0:44:11.120 --> 0:44:13.560
<v Speaker 1>game is having right now, is that they haven't been

0:44:13.560 --> 0:44:16.279
<v Speaker 1>able to run the game. Nothing nothing's changed since the

0:44:16.800 --> 0:44:20.120
<v Speaker 1>arge in the football. In the trenches, that's where you win.

0:44:20.680 --> 0:44:22.279
<v Speaker 1>We can have all the talent we won is for

0:44:22.360 --> 0:44:25.160
<v Speaker 1>us specialist specialists. But when you're in the trenches, if

0:44:25.160 --> 0:44:28.279
<v Speaker 1>you control that. That's how Kansas City lost in the

0:44:28.520 --> 0:44:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl because they decided that you know, well, their

0:44:33.120 --> 0:44:36.880
<v Speaker 1>offensive line wasn't there, and and Tampa decided that this

0:44:37.080 --> 0:44:38.759
<v Speaker 1>is where we're going to control our game, right as

0:44:38.800 --> 0:44:41.520
<v Speaker 1>they did. And I forgot one factor in that Raiders

0:44:41.600 --> 0:44:44.640
<v Speaker 1>game too. There were twenty eight penalties. Guys, Yeah, that's right,

0:44:44.800 --> 0:44:49.520
<v Speaker 1>but they still score the piece points. Yeah, it was um.

0:44:49.880 --> 0:44:53.319
<v Speaker 1>And one thing that you harp on is rushing touchdowns

0:44:53.520 --> 0:44:56.640
<v Speaker 1>And how many touchdowns rushing the zeke have the first

0:44:56.680 --> 0:44:59.799
<v Speaker 1>six games of the season, he had five. Now he's

0:45:00.000 --> 0:45:03.080
<v Speaker 1>at three and I bet two of them or one

0:45:03.160 --> 0:45:06.880
<v Speaker 1>yard runs. So I could look that up, but I

0:45:06.920 --> 0:45:10.000
<v Speaker 1>don't think we have time. But it's been Yeah, they've been.

0:45:10.800 --> 0:45:14.240
<v Speaker 1>They haven't run the ball in from ten yards except

0:45:14.320 --> 0:45:19.640
<v Speaker 1>for Pollard from fifty eight, right, they always got to

0:45:19.680 --> 0:45:23.160
<v Speaker 1>throw the ball. And why why is it? Why is

0:45:23.160 --> 0:45:26.279
<v Speaker 1>it so difficult if you know you have problems on

0:45:26.400 --> 0:45:31.160
<v Speaker 1>your front offensive line, we've got to devise a scheme

0:45:31.840 --> 0:45:36.439
<v Speaker 1>that can get the extra protection even with a four

0:45:36.520 --> 0:45:40.520
<v Speaker 1>man rush. Just let's just not be stubborn. Keep someone in,

0:45:41.120 --> 0:45:43.320
<v Speaker 1>even if it's not a blitz, even if it's not

0:45:43.440 --> 0:45:46.319
<v Speaker 1>five man, you've got to keep someone. And we need

0:45:46.400 --> 0:45:50.240
<v Speaker 1>to just realize they're getting pressure against us without blitzing.

0:45:50.400 --> 0:45:53.640
<v Speaker 1>This guy realized that sacrifice one guy. Bring them out

0:45:53.719 --> 0:45:56.439
<v Speaker 1>late if you want the running back and can bleed

0:45:56.520 --> 0:45:59.319
<v Speaker 1>out late. But otherwise we need to just pick our

0:45:59.400 --> 0:46:01.560
<v Speaker 1>paws and write away. Make sure that we can protect

0:46:01.600 --> 0:46:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback first before we do anything. So look at

0:46:04.719 --> 0:46:08.919
<v Speaker 1>the Atlanta game. They had two rushing touchdowns, no three,

0:46:09.000 --> 0:46:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, Dak had one four yard run, Zeke, one

0:46:12.640 --> 0:46:17.880
<v Speaker 1>yard run, Zeke, two yard run. Um Kansas City didn't

0:46:18.040 --> 0:46:21.800
<v Speaker 1>score a touchdowns. And we've noticed that. We've noticed already

0:46:21.880 --> 0:46:23.960
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna run the ball. We barely run the ball

0:46:24.040 --> 0:46:27.520
<v Speaker 1>on consecutive place right, And that's that's just you gotta

0:46:27.560 --> 0:46:30.239
<v Speaker 1>get out of that pattern. You just got to. I mean,

0:46:30.640 --> 0:46:32.880
<v Speaker 1>if we know what everyone else knows it, and you

0:46:33.000 --> 0:46:35.600
<v Speaker 1>just that's that's so the offensive lineman now they're under

0:46:35.680 --> 0:46:39.400
<v Speaker 1>the gun because that defensive lineman they're looking at those knuckles.

0:46:39.520 --> 0:46:41.880
<v Speaker 1>Those knuckles are not white on those offensive linemen. That

0:46:41.920 --> 0:46:44.400
<v Speaker 1>means that their hand is not on the ground and

0:46:44.520 --> 0:46:46.880
<v Speaker 1>they're looking to back up as opposed to go forward.

0:46:47.320 --> 0:46:51.279
<v Speaker 1>And then if we look at the Raiders game, and

0:46:51.400 --> 0:46:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I forgot this part because I said they scored thirty three,

0:46:54.160 --> 0:46:57.799
<v Speaker 1>but they did have one hundred yard kickoff Rere's true

0:46:59.200 --> 0:47:05.640
<v Speaker 1>zeke yard touchdown run uh New Orleans. There was a

0:47:05.719 --> 0:47:13.560
<v Speaker 1>gallop one yard pass for a touchdown and then fifty

0:47:13.600 --> 0:47:17.840
<v Speaker 1>eight yard run. So yeah, running into the end zone

0:47:18.640 --> 0:47:22.359
<v Speaker 1>inside the ten yard line even I mean, you saw

0:47:22.400 --> 0:47:25.560
<v Speaker 1>it last night with with Connor right when he kind

0:47:25.600 --> 0:47:27.800
<v Speaker 1>of bulldozed his way. Yeah, they thought he was stopped

0:47:27.920 --> 0:47:30.560
<v Speaker 1>and the second Africa and he just kept going and going.

0:47:30.719 --> 0:47:34.440
<v Speaker 1>What do opposing defensive coordinators? How? How would they term

0:47:34.520 --> 0:47:41.839
<v Speaker 1>our offense? The Cowboys offense is what? What's sporadic? Run

0:47:41.960 --> 0:47:48.200
<v Speaker 1>versus pass? Oh? There, we're happy pass happy offense, that's right.

0:47:48.360 --> 0:47:51.919
<v Speaker 1>And somehow they're stopping the run even knowing it's pass happy.

0:47:52.360 --> 0:47:54.879
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like they'd rather stop the run and take

0:47:54.960 --> 0:47:58.759
<v Speaker 1>their chance putting pressure on deck than vice versa and

0:47:58.880 --> 0:48:02.200
<v Speaker 1>let him run the football. And that's what they're gonna

0:48:02.239 --> 0:48:06.320
<v Speaker 1>face until they solve it. All right, very good? That

0:48:06.480 --> 0:48:10.000
<v Speaker 1>does it for a terrific Tuesday. Renzo makes me crazy,

0:48:12.080 --> 0:48:15.440
<v Speaker 1>all right, and we will chat at you again tomorrow

0:48:15.640 --> 0:48:20.360
<v Speaker 1>at one thirty here on mix Shots Go Cowboys. This

0:48:20.520 --> 0:48:23.279
<v Speaker 1>has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and

0:48:23.480 --> 0:48:25.279
<v Speaker 1>the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
