5
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: Newe Scrugs. Here we are on a Monday in which

6
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 1: the Cowboys did not secure another victory, in which the

7
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 1: Cowboys now find themselves as a number four seed in

8
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: the NFCAT instead of the number two seed in the NFC.

9
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm Newe Scruggs players Large Box by Hotels dot Com,

10
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: joined by four Dallas Cowboys safeties, Buried Churchy McCray, and

11
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: I give Barry Church all the credit in the world

12
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: because he said on Friday that Arizona will win the game. Yeah.

13
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: I was twenty two, the Cowboys twenty four. So mister Church,

14
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: how did you know, baby? How did you know? Well,

15
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: you know, in the streets they called me Nigro damas man,

16
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: so I you know I was. I was taken back

17
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: to my by Nostromo man. And uh I knew, I

18
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: knew man going into this game. It was just a

19
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: tough matchup, tough matchup, overall, you got one of the

20
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: most explosive running quarterbacks in the game, Rick Kyler Murray

21
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: and the way he's able to escape and not only

22
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: use his legs but also his arm. I mean, the

23
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: guy was deadly accurate out there yesterday. So I figured

24
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: this would be a tough matchup for US. Um I

25
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: didn't throw. I didn't know it was gonna get that

26
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 1: out of hand at first. You know, we've been We

27
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: battled back, you know, made it close towards the second half.

28
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: But that first half really stunned me because Arizona they

29
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: were without James Connor fourteen rushing touchdowns, they were without

30
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,559
Speaker 1: their two starting corners on the outside. So I thought,

31
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: you know, maybe this would be kind of a shootout,

32
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: maybe Cayla Murray would be able to squeak by with

33
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: a field goal here there. But it wasn't like that

34
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: at all, and they started fast. We once again started

35
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: and we didn't get that effort or we didn't put

36
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,279
Speaker 1: that emphasis on getting number nineteen to football early and often.

37
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: We saw it last week. It worked unbelievable. We got

38
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 1: him the ball that opened up everything else for the

39
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: run game, for the other receivers out there, and it

40
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 1: just didn't happen. We we instead of you know, fed

41
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: Dalton Scholtz a lot, and you know, the what happens

42
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: is what happened. We ended up out there taking the

43
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: l Defensively, I think they played as good as they

44
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: could have against this team, but they were dialed in.

45
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: They were dialed in, and eventually, eventually Diggs is not

46
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 1: gonna bite on the double move. One of these days,

47
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: he's not gonna bite on this double move. They were

48
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: able to take advantage of him on the outside. I

49
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: think A. J. Greener had one of his better games

50
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: as well. So overall, I mean, I think it was

51
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: a Colin Murray show and he took over this game

52
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: and went nine to know and Jerry World. Now, yeah,

53
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 1: you know, goodness gracious, yeah, I'll start. I'll start where

54
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: you ended off with Diggs. I'm open to, like, listen,

55
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: I'll take the interceptions for him getting beat on a

56
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: double move, all right, That's that's it comes with the

57
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 1: territory when you when you have Trade Diggs on your team.

58
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: But his ability to change the game, that's something that

59
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: I'll take, right. But I think what happened when him

60
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: was he got hit with a dove move at the beginning,

61
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: and then aj Green just kept hitting him with to

62
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: come back, come back, so he didn't want to jump

63
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: it after that. So I think they set him up

64
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: on that end. But I still think he played a

65
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: decent game. Like nobody went crazy on him. Anthony Brown

66
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: had had a tough game. He's going to continue to

67
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: find the ball coming toward him until he's able to

68
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: figure out the way to stop those stop those throws.

69
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: But I think the biggest thing is offensively. We talked

70
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: about this last week. The defense, like the offense. We're

71
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: not gonna say the week link, but you have a

72
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: strength in your defense, right and you say, hey, man,

73
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: if this team can score twenty four like new He

74
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: literally said, this team can score twenty four points somewhere

75
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: in that range, then we should be able to win games.

76
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: We go out there, we miss a field goal which

77
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: would have gave us a twenty fifth point, and we

78
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: lose the game. And I'm looking at these people and

79
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: they're like, yeah, the defense, I'm not like, what else

80
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: you want them to do? They held these dudes the

81
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: fourth field goals they gave and the offense gave them

82
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: the ball in their own territory. You know what, I'm saying,

83
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: that they've been but not but don't break it. And

84
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: I think that was I think that was a help

85
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: of performers by the defense. I think they came out listen,

86
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: this is why I think they had Colin Murray under

87
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: pressure the entire night. All Right, he was able to

88
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: get out and scramble. But when you when you have

89
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: your you on the on the field for seven eight minutes,

90
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: offense gets back up there, it goes three and out.

91
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like you, you have to

92
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: find a way to play balanced football. And I think

93
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: for the amount of time that our defense was on

94
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: the field, I think they did as much as they could,

95
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: like you said, to keep us in the game. They

96
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: gave us every opportunity that we needed. And then we

97
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: also got a fumble at the end, and we don't

98
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: got the tip. We don't have the timehouse to fix it.

99
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 1: I think our biggest issue here is the offense. Like

100
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: you said, we don't find a way to feature nineteen

101
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,679
Speaker 1: and twenty one in the game, we will not win consistently. Uh.

102
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: When you got two targets to Cede Lamb and Uh

103
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: and Amari Cooper and nine carries to Ezekiel Ella, you

104
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: do not have a success a recipe for success, and

105
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: I just don't think it makes sense. And we're gonna

106
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: keep saying this weekend and week out, but it's obviously

107
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: not gonna change. Let's go to the offense. Let's let's

108
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: talk about this offense for a little bit, because you know,

109
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: you know, I think it's hard for me to say this,

110
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: but you know, they were out coached by click Pingsbury.

111
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: He got the better of this group as a whole,

112
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: as a team, He got the better of this whole

113
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys team. Because we look at it and we

114
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: saw from the very beginning Arizona's defense was blitzing. They

115
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: blitzed about seventy to eighty percent of the time against

116
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Yet we're still calling plays where Dad's

117
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: gotta take a five step drop, Dad's gotta being shotgun

118
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: holding the ball for a long time while these routes

119
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: are developing. If you see these guys coming on a

120
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: consistent basis, you can't get anything going. You gotta call

121
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: some plays where the ball gets out of Dak's hands.

122
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: Quick screens, uh, you know, short three step drop some slants,

123
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: something to get the ball out of his hands quick

124
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: to slow down that pass rush and slow down there BLI.

125
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: But we didn't do that, and Arizona just kept dialing

126
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: it up, dialing it up, and then once again, we

127
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: don't have great blocking tight ends. Why an't we continuously

128
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: leaving these tight ends Shoults, Sprinkle, whoever's out there on

129
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 1: All Pro defensive ends, Chandler Jones. We've seen it from

130
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: the group. Arizona's defense does not get going unless Chandler

131
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: Jones gets going, and he got it going early and

132
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: often in that football game. And for the life of me,

133
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 1: I just don't understand why we're leaving Dalton shots, who's

134
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: a receiving tight end. He's never he's never acted like

135
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: he was one of the best blocking tight ends. If

136
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: you want to put a block, put McEwen in there,

137
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: the big kid from Michigan. Put him in there to

138
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: go ahead and try to block. But you got Sholts

139
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: out there blocking against an All Pro defensive end, one

140
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: of the best defensive ends in all of football. And

141
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: that's what the results is gonna happen. The guy's gonna

142
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: get strip sacks. The guy's gonna make his energy just

143
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: be felt throughout that entire defense. They built up on

144
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: that momentum that the rest was history. We just couldn't

145
00:06:54,960 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: get out of the whole. Well. One of the things

146
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: that we have talked about here on the players Lounge

147
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: is running the football here and it was a tale

148
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: of two teams who decided to run the football. Arizona

149
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: made a commitment to the run. He start looking at

150
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: them and what they did for the football game. They

151
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,239
Speaker 1: had twenty second half rushes alone, and for the game

152
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: they had thirty two rushes on one hundred and twenty

153
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: seven yards on the football on the ground. Meanwhile, the

154
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys basically abandoned the run. In the first half.

155
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliot actually the whole game, Ezekiel Elliet had nine

156
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: rushers for sixteen yards. Tony Pollard had three rushes for

157
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: nine yards. But here's the damning stats for me. In

158
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: the second half, Zeke had two rushes for zero yards

159
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: and Tony Pollard had zero rushes. How in the world

160
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: can you go into a football game and you tell

161
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: me that you have those two running backs and they

162
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: only get two carries in the second half and Dak

163
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: Prescott ends up being your leading rusher for the entire

164
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: football game. To me, that's a failure. Listen, let me

165
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: tell you something and I can hear it now. We

166
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: had negative plays. We had negative plays. Two of those

167
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: negative players I can see right now, Chandler Jones run

168
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: straight through Dalts Shows and it's and it's and it's

169
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: a negative. It's a negative play. And I'm not fault

170
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: faulting Dalton Shows for this. If you're going to put

171
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: the emphasis on running the ball, put a tackle out there,

172
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: like what who? It doesn't matter, right, If they know

173
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: that you're gonna run the ball, they already lining up

174
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: with eating the box. Anyways, put a tackle out there.

175
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: Make sure you get this guy blocked, and do not

176
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: let him wreck the game because he moved the line

177
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. And then now Zeke has no where to go.

178
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: And you're like, man, well, Zeke ain't doing nothing. Now,

179
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 1: it's not Zeke, it's not Zeke. It's your scheme. You

180
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: know all year we've been watching Dalts and Shows blocked

181
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: and it's like, no, he's a receiver tight end, so

182
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 1: I'm not facing him for this. But help him out,

183
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: Help him out. This a year in and year out,

184
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: about helping people when you know that they lack at

185
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: the at a certain skill. Right, if he's not that

186
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: good of a run blocker, help him out, a put

187
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: a tackle out there. You got you got Terrence still

188
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: sitting on the bench, Go put him out there, bro

189
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: help him. It just it doesn't make sense. And then

190
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: when you see those negative type of runs, I think

191
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: that's when the offensive coordinator goes, oh, yeah, well we

192
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: can't run the ball, and then it just turns into

193
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,079
Speaker 1: this Tampa Bay game where everybody thought it was amazing

194
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: when we played Tampa. But you continue to try that

195
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: throughout the entire season, and you're gonna end up just

196
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: like you ended up twelve rushes for twenty yards and

197
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: then Dak Prescott all of a sudden being your leading

198
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: rusher because you have not emphasized running the ball. You

199
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: will not win playoff games that way. You cannot play

200
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: that way and win, especially when your defense is doing

201
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: everything they can, but they end up being on the

202
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: field for extended period of time, and sometimes that happens

203
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: like it happens like you're gonna play teams they're able

204
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: to put those type of drives together. Now when the

205
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: offense gets back out there, they can't go three and

206
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: the out. You gotta help. You gotta find a way

207
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: to help your squad. Right, if you run the ball twice,

208
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: it go three and out least you giving them two

209
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: three minutes you get out there and just start hacking

210
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: and you ain't getting the first down. Your defense like, man,

211
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 1: what what what are we doing? Five six weeks we

212
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: on this. And this is another example of how I

213
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: think Cliff Kingsbury, you know, got the better of this

214
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys team, because if you look at Arizona's game plan,

215
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: the outside of a couple, you know, Kyler Murray scrambles,

216
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: you take those scrambles away. They didn't run the ball crazy,

217
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: they didn't gash us or anything like that. Chase Edmonds

218
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: wasn't killing. But what they did was they never gave

219
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: up on the run game, which kept this defense honest.

220
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: Was kept Cowboys defense honest. We know when a team

221
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: is forced to throw the football, our defensive ends Parsons

222
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: Gregory the Law, they're gonna pin their ears back and

223
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: they're gonna get ready to go. But since Arizona put

224
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 1: that run game and didn't give up on it, even

225
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: though it wasn't producing nothing. They might have gotten, you know,

226
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: two point five yards to carry outside of Kyler murray scrambles.

227
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: Even though it wasn't producing nothing. It kept that defense honest.

228
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: So they couldn't just pin the ear back and turn

229
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: the corner and go after the quarterback. They had to

230
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: make sure it wasn't a run and then go to it.

231
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: And that helps slow down our pass rush and eventually

232
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 1: let Kyla Murray be as effective as he was. So

233
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: the Cowboy run game. Let's start to dissect this a

234
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: little bit here. What do we put on the offensive line.

235
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: It's in terms of the struggles that were seeing from

236
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: this football team and not being able to run. You know,

237
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: I put a little bit on the old line. But

238
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: it's hard because they were going against eight man boxes

239
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: the entire time, because Arizona doesn't believe that our past

240
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: game and Dak Prescott's arm can beat them. If you

241
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: saw it, a lot of those times, there was you know,

242
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: eight guys up in the line of scrimmage. Whether they

243
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: were blitzing or backing out, they were still giving that

244
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: look to where you're sitting there thinking, Okay, there's no

245
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: way we can run against this eight man box. But

246
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: to your credit, Danny, you talked about it earlier in

247
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: the season. Even though they have that look, sometimes you

248
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: still gotta just hit that battering ram. Sometimes you still

249
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: gotta just go at that wall to keep them honest,

250
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: similar to what Arizona did to us. But when you

251
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: don't have that, you know when you gotta I gotta

252
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: check up out here, I gotta pass the football. It

253
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: creates problems, and it creates trouble for your offense. And listen,

254
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: let me tell you something that And they also goes

255
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: into the fact that you see, we tried to run

256
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: the boot. You know why it didn't work. We ain't

257
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: running the ball, abody, You're not fooling anybody. This is

258
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 1: the same reason Dak Prescott throws that pick at the

259
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 1: end of the I believe it's a Washington game where

260
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: you're like, man, what is going on? If we run

261
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: the boot, linebacker doesn't really bite on. He biting on

262
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: a little bit and then he's able to get back

263
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: underneath the route. The same thing here. If you are

264
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: not going to focus on the run game, we are

265
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: not the only team who sees eight man boxes. Because

266
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 1: teams are gonna dare us to throw it, but we

267
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,599
Speaker 1: are seeming to be the only team who does not

268
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: have any answer for it except throw it. We cannot

269
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: find a way. Like last week we came out, we're

270
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: pulling guys. Layel's pulling, Zack Barnes's pulling, like we're figuring

271
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: out ways to get guys on the edge. And this year,

272
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: I mean this week, it seemed like that creativity was

273
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: just was lost and gone, like we have no we

274
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: have no identity, and our identities should be run through

275
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 1: twenty one and get the ball to nineteen. Somehow we

276
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: cannot figure out how to get it. I'm still looking

277
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: at the game. I'm saying central Russe comes in and

278
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 1: he's catching Oh oh listen, greatness to him. That should

279
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: not be him. It should be nineteen like getting these

280
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: passos because because other than that, he is like literally

281
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: not on the field. Ye that's the true. So do

282
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: you think it's more not you know, the offensive line

283
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: getting beat, you know, man on man or whatever. You

284
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 1: think it's more of a lack of attempts? Absolutely? Absolutely,

285
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,719
Speaker 1: you cannot go into a game with Ezekiel Elliott. He

286
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: ends the game with nine gears for sixteen yards. Yeah,

287
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: lack of a like, how can he get going? Like

288
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: he's not a necessarily a pass catching running back, right,

289
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: he is a like down the throat, punish you. And

290
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: then at the end of the game is where he

291
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: starts to wear on you. Well, ain't nobody. You ain't

292
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 1: wearing no nobody with no nine runs, and earlier in

293
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: that game he looked like he has some juice, Like

294
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: he looked early in the game he had a couple

295
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: of runs where you know, he got through the lane scrimmage,

296
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: show a little bit of burst there. But you know,

297
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: we just didn't stick with it long enough. This I

298
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,559
Speaker 1: don't know why this is how you know those those

299
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 1: excuses A BS one is all right, we you know

300
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: we got a stack box, so we're not gonna give

301
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: it to Zeke nexus. We're gonna wrest him a little

302
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 1: bit because his knee hurt. What's the excuse? Now, you're

303
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 1: the man in the ball, right, you got one hundred

304
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: and ninety million dollars to who you are not focusing

305
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: on on? This team? Makes absolutely no sense. One hundred

306
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: and ninety Newey one hundred and ninety ms. It's a

307
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: lot of ms. I went back here, just started breaking

308
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: down the numbers in the second half, seventeen pass attempts

309
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 1: by the Cowboys offense to seven runs, and of those

310
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: seven runs, only two of them were by the running backs.

311
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 1: So seventeen or two man that is a damning number.

312
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: And that's not what Mike McCarthy has called for this year,

313
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: he says, complimentary football. Mike's talked about that all offseason long.

314
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: And so for me, I wonder when is the conversation

315
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 1: the head coach has with the coordinator and the quarterback

316
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: about what you're calling or what you're checking into, because

317
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: you're just abandoning the run, and clearly yesterday you weren't

318
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: effective at all in the football game and you became predictable.

319
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: Do you think it's more of what Dak is deciding

320
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: to check into up in the line street because we've

321
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: seen it a bunch of times last week, or yeah,

322
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: this week. This past week he was at the line

323
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: of scrimmage and it seemed like almost every play in

324
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: that first half he was checking out of something, or

325
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: whether it was making a line twitch or checking from

326
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: past or run, whatever the case may be. Do you

327
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: think it's more of him doing that or what Kellen's calling.

328
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: Let me tell you because also to that what happened

329
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: to the tempo like timpo? Timpo is gone when you

330
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: line up on the on the ball and then you

331
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 1: don't snap until his five seconds left because you're checking

332
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: all over the place. I think it's both of them,

333
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 1: but I think Kellen Moore has the opportunity and he

334
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: has to say so to say, hey man, this is

335
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: what we're going out here to run. You might have

336
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: two checks. Run or pass right and based off what

337
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: you see. If it's a man box, I want you

338
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: to throw this ball to nineteen. If he's covered, then

339
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 1: go to read number two. If it's seven in the

340
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: box and you see too high running the ball right

341
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: or left, that is it. But you think that he

342
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: can tell him that, I mean, this is this is

343
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: a guy. I mean, he's not a face in a rookie.

344
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: This is a guy that they gave all that money too. Yeah,

345
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 1: you as coach? Yes you if you If you cannot

346
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: tell him that, then then who are you? Right? You

347
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: are his coach? Right? Then Quinn can go out there

348
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: and tell any one of them dudes to line up

349
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: and play how we practice on plan all right, and

350
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: Kelly Moore should be able to do that as well,

351
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: Especially if you have aspirations of being a head coach,

352
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: you need to be able. You gotta have that type

353
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: of control over your quarterback. You can say whatever you

354
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: want to. I know knew he's gonna like this about

355
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett and what he did. But when he went

356
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: out there called to run, they're gonna run the ball.

357
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: He went out there and said throw at eighty eight.

358
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: They're gonna throw at eighty eight. Can we get just

359
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: a little of that? We don't have to be all that.

360
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: Can we get a little of Marie Cooper is out

361
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: here in the press scene, give me the ball? You

362
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: go to him one game against the Washington football team,

363
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: who doesn't have all these players. And when you go

364
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: out here against the team that is a playoff team,

365
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 1: that is a litmus test for you. You go out

366
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: here and you sleep walk into this thing. It makes

367
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: absolutely no sense for the play callers perspective, and from

368
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: the quarterback if it's him who's checking out of these plays. Yeah,

369
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you would love your coordinator to be able

370
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: to you know, like you said, talking to be like, hey,

371
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: just what we need to do, get it done or

372
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: But it's like a different dynamic between those two because

373
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: they were teammates at one time. You know, they were

374
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: teammates at one time than Kellen Moore was the quarterback

375
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 1: coach that so it ain't like he just came in

376
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: and was like, yeah, I'm the boss. You are, you know,

377
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you're the student. You're to eat the pupil

378
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: you They was at the same level. So I can

379
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: see where it's hard for Kelly Moore to just be like, no,

380
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: you better do this or else. Plus, when you give

381
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: a guy a paycheck like that, I mean, it's it's

382
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: gonna be hard just you know, to just put him

383
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: in his place. But you know, it needs to happen.

384
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: Something needs to happen, something needs to change with his offense.

385
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: Oh well, Kellen Moore has got a job interview with

386
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jacks this week, affording Tom pla sero of

387

388
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: of weeks of Dak Prescott and Kellen Moore working together.

389

Speaker 1: We we shall see. Let us take a break here.

00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: Neuis Scruggs, joined by former Dallas Cowboys safeties Barry Church

443
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 1: and Danny McCrae. All right, guys, here's the stat that

444
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: it's pretty damn it. The Cowboys that faced four Pro

445
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,640
Speaker 1: Bowl quarterback team. They've got a one, one and three

446
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: record against those quarterbacks. They beat Justin Herbert, but then

447
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 1: proceeded to lose to Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes and yesterday

448
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. So the Cowboys have eleven wins. They're six

449
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: and five against teams. I mean, you start thinking against,

450
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 1: you take away the nfcast, and then that record is

451
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: almost a five hundred record against other teams. So how

452
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: should we view the Cowboys outside of beating up on

453
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: these divisional teams? You should view them, is what you say,

454
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,479
Speaker 1: are who we thought they were at this point? All right,

455
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna say this. I still think that we

456
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: are a good team defensively. I think that if we

457
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 1: don't find a way to find some balance and help

458
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 1: our defense out to where we all of a sudden,

459
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: if we don't get three turnovers in the game, we

460
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: can't win. Because now we're starting to see that the

461
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: defense is really carrying you by giving you these extra possessions.

462
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,959
Speaker 1: So now if they can only give you one, if

463
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: they can't give you any, but they can still hold

464
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,360
Speaker 1: these teams to field goals and you still can't score touchdowns,

465
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: that we don't have a shot. Right. So the offense

466
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 1: that I thought we had at the beginning of the

467
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: year when we were playing against Tampa, but we didn't

468
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,239
Speaker 1: run the ball, which I said was gonna be our

469
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: Achilles Hill, it's not the offense that is playing right now.

470
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: We are literally they have. I believe they have found

471
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: Kelly Moore out. I believe that we're literally just out

472
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: there running routes and these teams are able to get

473
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 1: underneath these routes by playing zoner man and stop us.

474
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: We have not been able to say my guy is

475
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: better than yours. This is not a scheme. This is

476
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 1: just as what me. I'm gonna line up with Mark Cooper,

477
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: let him run a slant, let him run a go,

478
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 1: let him run out, and let him beat the guy

479
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: across from and we have not been able to do that.

480
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: And it's disappointed because I watched the Green Bay game

481
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: last night and I watched the Adam it's not even

482
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: it's not scheme. He said, hey man, you run this

483
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 1: way and I'm gonna throw you the ball. It's not

484
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: that hard, bro. So when I'm until we find a

485
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 1: way to get some balance. Was we only got one game,

486
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 1: and you better not sleep on Philly. You better not

487
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,400
Speaker 1: sleep We got one We got one game to get

488
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 1: this thing right and find some balance. And I think,

489
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately, I think it's a little too late

490
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: to find that type of to find that type of balance,

491
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: especially in your run game. Yeah, I mean I agree

492
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 1: with everything you said. And once again, I tried to

493
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: tell y'all weeks ago knew he had Danny. I tried

494
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: to tell y'all weeks ago, we were feasting on bad quarterbacks.

495
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: We were feasting on Mike Glennon, we were feasting on Taylor,

496
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 1: Heinik Jake from those type of guys, and you can

497
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 1: only play who's in front of you. So that in

498
00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 1: the defense that they did their job, they did what

499
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 1: they had to do and above force and four turnovers

500
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 1: doing all that great stuff. They were playing amazing. But

501
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: what got me nervous was when we get to the playoffs,

502
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 1: I'm no so sure we're gonna be playing those terrible quarterbacks.

503
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to go against some better quarterbacks, saying

504
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: last year and yesterday we went against one of the

505
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: better quarterbacks in the National Football League and Kyler Murray. Now,

506
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: not everybody is dynamic as Kyler Murray like. He was

507
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 1: able to buy time, extend the pocket, and he was

508
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,239
Speaker 1: able to do a lot of things that a lot

509
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: of other quarterbacks can't do. But we gotta find a

510
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: way defensively to just I mean, it's hard to say

511
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: step it up even more but when your offense is

512
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 1: struggling the way it is and you can't get turned

513
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 1: and you can't get a takeaway, you're gonna have to

514
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: do something and it's gonna have to be better on

515
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: third down or something like that. They were seven to

516
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: sixteen last night on third down. I'm talking about the

517
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals, and usually this Dallas defense is the number

518
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: one defense on third down. They've been helping Cats to

519
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: only thirty percent on third down the entire season. Yesterday

520
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: that wasn't the case. You know, Arizona was able to

521
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: keep drives alive, keep moving the football and tiring out

522
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: this defense. I mean, we've seen drives of ninety one

523
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: yards again, they had another one of eighty some yards.

524
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: It was just the long sustained drive eighty by penalties. Yea,

525
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 1: I'll give you that as well by penalties. But it's

526
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: just something that this defense has to do when they're

527
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: not getting takeaways. They've got to be better on third

528
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 1: down and in the offense. I think it just is

529
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: what it is right now. They just can't get out

530
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 1: their way. They seem to not have an identity or

531
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 1: really a solution to not having an identity. So it's

532
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: got to be on this defense right now, and that

533
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: makes me nervous going into the playoffs when we have

534
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: to face against a quarterback. We ain't winning like that. Yeah, tough,

535
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: So we're not going to be able to win games

536
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 1: if the defense has to do everything. Yeah, and I'm

537
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: not taking anything away from the offense, but what Kyler

538
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 1: Murray and then they were number one team before they

539
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 1: went on the slide, all right, We went through the

540
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: same the same type of slump, all right, so good

541
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: teams do go through slumps. But when he was able

542
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 1: to wake up and they offense started to look at

543
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: least half of what they were. Our defense is holding

544
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: them to field goals and giving the offense opportunities even

545
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: when Dak is fum running his own territory and we

546
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: held them to like we're holding these guys. You have

547
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 1: to find a way to then find the momentum and

548
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: score some points, and not specifically just at the end,

549
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: because right, you stopped this team five or six times

550
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: and then you're like, all right, now we gotta stop

551
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 1: them three more times where the offense comes back like

552
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 1: it don't work that way, right, It's like not a

553
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: defense got to hold they've been holding all games like

554
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: that Kansas City game, like it was just like, man,

555
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 1: we again. Everywhere it's in the group chat, like again,

556
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: this defense is going to hold them again, and they

557
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,119
Speaker 1: were able to do it. But I mean, it's just

558
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 1: a matter of time before a great quarterback is able

559
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: to take much well. And then and then a miscommunication

560
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: or or being out coast where we got tricked out

561
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 1: of that time out, your defense actually cause us the

562
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: turnover that you need, right like, we need our defensive

563
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,199
Speaker 1: step up and make a play. They did, they did,

564
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 1: but you don't have the time out the challenge and

565
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: not yet the ref did miss it. But it happens

566
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: all the time. You have to try to find a

567
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,239
Speaker 1: way to make sure that you know what's coming at

568
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: you so you don't waste the time out like that.

569
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: And it ended up literally killing us at the end

570
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: of the game. Because I'm still on the defense, whether

571
00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 1: we might not end up top ten, but I'm telling

572
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: you this, that defense when it was time for them

573
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: to make plays, they did, and then at the end

574
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: of the game when Dak started coming back, they still

575
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: made more plays to get you back in the game.

576
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,239
Speaker 1: They caused that turnover. We didn't get it, but they

577
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 1: are still able to turn the ball over and that's

578
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: always gonna give you a chance in the game. But

579
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: if your offense is is sleeping through the first three quarters,

580
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: then you don't have a shot to start fast. Yeah,

581
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: because you look at the way that Arizona was able

582
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: to play at the end. They were able to just

583
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 1: continue to try to run the time, run the time,

584
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:28,399
Speaker 1: mother tick. We don't need to score. They don't have

585
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: time to come back. And you saw that at the

586
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 1: end of the game and Greg de leg you know, uh,

587
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: hook them left, man. I mean we started we started.

588
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 1: We started this in the Tampa game. Okay, we started

589
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 1: us in the Tampa game. And we've been seeing this

590
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: throughout the whole season. We've been seeing this throughout the

591
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: whole night. He ain't been horrible, but when when these

592
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 1: moments coming you had you had to start tallying up

593
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: to these points. You're like, where we love him on

594
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: the field that it's coming from the field goal because

595
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 1: it's fun to you because it's not like it's a

596
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: nutcutting time where it's like, you know, fives. He's usually

597
00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 1: good in that in that area. When it's you know,

598
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: it's the last kick he has to make it. It's

599
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 1: those ones where it's like, oh, this is routine, he

600
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: can do this, this is a forty yard this is

601
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: you know, this is this is easy, this is and

602
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 1: boom he misses it. Then you're just like, oh man,

603
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: what's going on there? You chasing points the entire game,

604
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: and when you're going to get a quarterback like Kyler Murray,

605
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: you can't give him extra shots like that. Look, this

606
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 1: guy was let go by the Rams and they haven't

607
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: missed him at all because the Pro Bowl kicker on

608
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 1: the NFC squad this year is is Matt Gay, who's

609
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: with the Rams. So clearly they knew what was going on,

610
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: and you saw John Fossil come here. They gave Greg's

611
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: earline a big contract. I don't know whether Mike McCarthy's

612
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: got any say or any or what happens with this

613
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 1: field goal kicker, because clearly it feels like Bones Fossil

614
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 1: is the one in charge running things when it comes

615
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: to the kicking unit. Now. I asked him specifically two

616
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: questions after the Thanksgiving that game about this kicker, and

617
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 1: he told me he had confidence in him. And then

618
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: yesterday he was like, well, you know we're in the

619
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: playoffs situation. Now he knows what he's got to do.

620
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 1: So it's like he's coming off this a little bit like, hey, man,

621
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: I wasn't crazy. This dude is problem. We saw himss

622
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: two extra points against the Giants and I wrote down

623
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 1: this just going back to three games. Man, that three

624
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: point lost to Arizona, he missed the field goal. That

625
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: three point loss to Las Vegas, he missed the field

626
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: goal and an extra point. Then you go back to

627
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 1: that two point loss against Tampa Bay, he missed the

628
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: field goal, an extra point. That's three football games right there,

629
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 1: where if he did his job, we're probably talking about

630
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,159
Speaker 1: a different outcome for the Dallas Cowboys. Man, this guy's

631
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 1: not been good. And after the season, I don't want

632
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: to hear anymore of this who he about, how he's

633
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 1: the guy he's kind of having a bunch of competence

634
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: in the camp, okay, because that dude had no competition

635
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: at camp. Guys, there were times when we were like

636
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: we go see a field goal. We went weeks without

637
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: seeing a field goal at him because bones Fossil was like, yeah,

638
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: he's coming off surgery, he's gonna be good. We're good

639
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 1: We got him, and McCarthy's like, man, he's kicked the

640
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: team to a super Bowl. He's all us. This is

641
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of bulljive. Man, This dude is mediocre at best.

642
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 1: He'd kicked you out the number two seed, that's what

643
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: he did. It kicks you to the four. But since

644
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: we're on special teams, man, I gotta give a shout

645
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: out to our guy, man c J. Goodwin. Once again, Man,

646
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: he is making plays and I'm surprised he didn't get that,

647
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: you know, special Team's Pro Bowl. Not because I don't

648
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: see another better gunner in the league right now. I

649
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: know that the guy in New England is awesome, But

650
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: the way CJ is making plays, I mean out there's

651
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 1: a special teams guy. I mean he's bawling. It was

652
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 1: hurt a little bit. I think when he hurt. Oh

653
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: he didn't miss like that again a little bit. But yeah,

654
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: even he's bawling. And I'm not even gonna put the

655
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: onus on on that fake punt on on like bones

656
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 1: because literally the rule is, you know, no pass to

657
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: the first, but only on the outside like they had

658
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: they had it covered. The Dudel made a David Tyree

659
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: like unbelievable kiss they get a pass interferes it was covered.

660
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 1: It just didn't. It just didn't go out away there.

661
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: It wasn't like they got tricked out of it. What

662
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: they got tricked out of was when they put the

663
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: kicker in the quarterback on the field on that on

664
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 1: that field goal, they gotta have a spot up. You

665
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: got somebody gotta see that. Somebody got to see um,

666
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 1: and you just got to be prepared to do it

667
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: instead of just being like, hey man, we're just gonna

668
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: run our field goal block team out there. So shout

669
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: out to special teams. C J. He's still I'm not

737
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: I sent my note out here. Ask somebody who's got

738
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: a vote in the Comeback Player of the Year, And

739
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 1: I said, who gets it? Is it Joe Burrow Comeback

740
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: player of the Year? Is that Dak Prescott? And he says,

741
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: the way Joey b playing is now, it's him Nick

742
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: Bosa also in play. I would also say Joey b

743
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: Dak and botha. Asked another voter, I would have said

744
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: Dak until yesterday. Now it's interesting, toss up Joe Burrow

745
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: out there bowling has Cincinnati as Division champions. Here, Danny mccraig,

746
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: go ahead and take the floor on this, because I

747
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: know Burry Church ain't got nothing. Did he really want

748
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: to say on this right? Listen? Listen, listen. Before Barry

749
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 1: Church got off the air last week, I asked him

750
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 1: what would he say about Joe Burrow if he beat

751
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,399
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, And he said, I'm gonna give

752
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: him his dude. I'm gonna give miss dude Joe Burrow.

753
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,879
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow went out there this week down fourteen points

754
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: in the first quarter, did not blink. Jamar Chase has

755
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 1: two hundred and sixty plush yards on eleven catches. Te

756
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 1: Higgins got a touch down, he goes for another. I

757
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,440
Speaker 1: think was it four hundred something go for So in

758
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 1: the last two games he's broke the record for how

759
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: many yards you have in the two game span. He

760
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 1: wins the division, and you're gonna sit here and talk

761
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 1: about Justin Herbert. This is what I'm gonna tell you.

762
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 1: If you vote for anybody but Joe Burrow to be

763
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: the NFL Comeback Player of the Year, then you are

764
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: just straight up bias. Because I love the Cowboys, I

765
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,760
Speaker 1: like Joe Burrow, but as far as the person who's

766
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,240
Speaker 1: performed the best and done more for their team this season,

767
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: it's absolutely Joe Burrow, all right, So please tell me

768
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: what you think about Joe Burrow compared to Justin Herbert Hillo.

769
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 1: He's gonna start on the come back player of the year.

770
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,759
Speaker 1: That was the original question knew he had presented. So

771
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and say Joe Burrow needs to

772
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: be the comeback Player of the Year. The man has

773
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: played amazing so far this season. He's bawled out, he's

774
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 1: did what he had to do, and he's did it

775
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: with a terrible offensive line because half the time the

776
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 1: guys running for his life. Now he has unbelievable, you know,

777
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: set of receivers in skill position, but he has to

778
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: be able to make those throws and he has done that.

779
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: So the guy has played great. He's gonna be comeback

780
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: Player of the Year. He's got his team in the playoffs,

781
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: say one of division, all this other stuff. I mean,

782
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 1: he get get a man this cookies, get a man

783
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 1: as flowers and look, you know I said I was

784
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 1: gonna give him his just dude, So look, I admit it.

785
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: I admit it, all right, Joe Burrow is only on

786
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: the same level as Justin Herbert or right here in

787
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 1: time beckon back. They right at the same level. It's

788
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 1: no more Justin Herbert over Joe Burro. They're on the

789
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 1: same level right now, I'll admit it, on the same level.

790
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,479
Speaker 1: They're on the same level. I admitted Church Church, Church,

791
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 1: got a met Church, Jeff. Justin Herbert need to go

792
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: ahead and give his Pro Bowl spot to Joe Burrows

793
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: really does right, Stop it's Joe Burrows team is their

794
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: division champs. Stop champs, man, Stop it we don't even

795
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 1: know if Justin Herbert can make the play, he may

796
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 1: not make the playoffs. Man, he got to win this week,

797
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: gets the Raiders. He may not make the playoffs. The

798
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 1: team he's already, He's in there. Man left his left

799
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: tackle was all pro as a rookie, said he had

800
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: helped man Joe out here running for his life. Man

801
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: with bad coaching, with a bad head coach. Man, So

802
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna sit there and say, hey, because he had

803
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 1: an all pro left tackle, he had he had a

804
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 1: better situation than Joe Burrow. Bro He Joe bol got

805
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: two thousand yard receivers and all pro running back is better?

806
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 1: At what? At what point? At what point are you

807
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 1: gonna say? At what point are you gonna say? Is

808
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow? Okay? Joe burrowsten He's he's he's throwing throwing

809
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: the ball to these guys, Okay, So act like they

810
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,880
Speaker 1: will be doing the same thing if they had a

811
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: different quarterback back there. Joe Burrow somehow Lee's college and

812
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 1: has two of the best receivers. Right, He's throwing these

813
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 1: two dudes the ball. What I'm saying, Joe Burrow ain't

814
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: gonna be there I'm not playing this season, all right,

815
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: Jamar tastes does not play. Justin Jefferson goes on to

816
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: be what a rookie of the year. Jamar Chase comes

817
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 1: in and breaks Justin Jefferson's record with Joe Burrow. All right,

818
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: This dude is the reason for these guys to be

819
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: as good as they are. And you're talking about he

820
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: and Justin Herbert are just now getting on the same

821
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: same level. Now they on the same level right now.

822
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: Like I said at add on the what Danny said,

823
00:37:54,719 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 1: So Joe Burrow left, get fired, get fired? I mean, Herbert,

824
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: this is this is this just shows you, yeah, this

825
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 1: just shows you how good Joe Burrow is for you

826
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 1: to like first knock him down. Herbert Burne on the

827
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: same level right right now, right now. Who's having a

828
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,440
Speaker 1: better season Justin? Herbert? You're talking about stat wise? Are

829
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: you talking about no, none of my record wise? You

830
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: know you know exactly what I'm talking about. Who's having

831
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 1: a who's having a better season justin? Let's you're talking

832
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 1: about stat wise, because if you talk about stat wise, Herbert,

833
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 1: this dude got thirty thirty, thirty four or fourteen for touchdowns.

834
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 1: I'm confused on somebody signed justin Herbert's fourteen let me

835
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,439
Speaker 1: five thousand years. Joe Burrow got the same. Joe Burrow

836
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 1: got the same. He'll be sitting at home next week.

837
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,919
Speaker 1: He's seventh place. Right now, he's seven. Go ahead, back

838
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,919
Speaker 1: to the original question right now, who wins comeback Play

839
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: of the Year? Is it Dak, is it Bosa? Is

840
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: it Joe Burrow? Who wins this award? Joe Burrow got

841
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow easy. This is We talked about the Cincinnati Bengals, bro,

842
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 1: So you can say whatever how you think they look

843
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 1: right now. The expectation for this team at the beginning

844
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: of the year was definitely not winning their division and

845
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: playing the way that they playing with two one thousand

846
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 1: yard receivers, Pro Bowl running back, defense showing up when

847
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: they need to, and then being on the way to

848
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: the playoffs. All right, no expectation for that. And it

849
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: literally is all to meet of this on Joe Burrow.

850
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 1: Without Joe Burrow being on this squad, they are not

851
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: the seen. The defense ain't playing like this, receivers ain't

852
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 1: playing like this, and running back it's still playing well,

853
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: but he not having this type of success without Joe

854
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: Burrow being on that squad. I go back to the

855
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 1: game and with Cincinnati played this year where they were

856
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 1: going to win this football game. Joe Burrow did all

857
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: he could. Kicker goes out there and this is an

858
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 1: easy one against Green Bay and they end up losing.

859
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,919
Speaker 1: The guy has been definitely he's definitely been a difference maker.

860
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 1: Let's let us not in the show without talking about

861
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: Michael Galla, who j Mary Jones, the Cowboys owner said

862
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: afterwards just going to miss the rest of the year

863
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:07,399
Speaker 1: where they torn acl He's going into free agency. Um,

864
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: what's the most important thing for guys to do for

865
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 1: Michael Gallapher's teammates in such a tough time like this.

866
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: I'm because I've been in the same literally the same

867
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 1: exact situation torn Achilles going into the contract year. But

868
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 1: you know what you need from your teammates is just

869
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: for them to reassure you that you're still part of

870
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 1: that team. Like when I when I went down, it

871
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: was hard, it was real hard, rook undrafted rookie, and

872
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: I was first chance starting and boom. I went down

873
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: that very next week and the week's following that, Danny

874
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 1: Gerald sense the ball everybody in that secondary crew would

875
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,840
Speaker 1: come over to my apartment at the time and we

876
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 1: had just played cars, just talk. We wouldn't even talk

877
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,800
Speaker 1: about football. We had just played cars, just just to

878
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: make you feel like you're still a part of that

879
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: locker room. Because when you're injured and you don't get

880
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 1: to go to the meetings anymore, you're not practicing. You

881
00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: basically just come in for your treatment and then your eve.

882
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't even see your teammates that day. They're

883
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: already either already out practice in order and meetings, so

884
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: you just go to the training room. So it gets hard.

885
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,839
Speaker 1: It gets real hard, especially when your team is having

886
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,840
Speaker 1: a lot of success as well. And this team right

887
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 1: now has a chance to, you know, make a long

888
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: run in the playoffs, and it's going to be without

889
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 1: Michael Gallups. So to me, I just think the teammates

890
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: need to reach out to him however they want to

891
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: do it, and just make sure that he knows he's

892
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: still a part of his team and without him, you know,

893
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 1: the success wouldn't be there. So it's definitely a tough

894
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 1: one because it's going in the contract. Yere. Yeah, let

895
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: me tell you, I'm gonna pick it back off what

896
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: you said about they got a chance of making a

897
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: deep run in the playoffs. He can He can go

898
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 1: in knowing that the chance has got a lot slimmer

899
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 1: without him being on the field. We talked about him

900
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 1: being We talked about him being the deep threat for

901
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 1: this team, and when you watch the games with him

902
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: being in it, those fade balls, those back in the

903
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: corner end zone, back shoulder, ninety percent of those were

904
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 1: going to Michael Gallup, and ninety percent of the time

905
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 1: he was coming down with those as you see when

906
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: on the play that he heard his he is. That

907
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: is a play that literally boosts a momentum in our

908
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 1: favor and allows us to score points like he is

909
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,240
Speaker 1: that guy. So I think he's literally gonna be missed.

910
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: Hopefully he did make him some money even though he

911
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:14,800
Speaker 1: did get injured, because teams will will have to be

912
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 1: able to watch that film and say, even though you

913
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 1: got a Mark Cooper, even though you have Ceedee Lamb,

914
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup had a role on this team and he

915
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 1: was a guy who could make some of those dynamic

916
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 1: catches when you needed to have a fifty fifty ball

917
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,760
Speaker 1: caught by your player. So shout out to him. Hopefully

918
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: he heals up soon, and hopefully teams take a really

919
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 1: good look at him and see what he was able

920
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 1: to do for this squad and pay him pay him accordingly. Well,

921
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: let me ask you this, d Mac. You know he

922
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: got injured late in a year, so you know he's

923
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 1: gonna have to go through you know, surgery rehab, and

924
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: he might not even be ready for training camp. Would

925
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 1: you rather if you were in Michael gallup situation? And

926
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: let's just say, you know, teams they're not gonna be

927
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: throwing the money at you because you got an AHL.

928
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 1: They might give you a one year deal, maybe even

929
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 1: a two year deal here and there. I'm not sure.

930
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: I'm just saying this is hypothetically. Would you rather sign

931
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: a one year, lesser value deal with Dallas knowing that

932
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 1: you can all right, you're familiar with the training staff,

933
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 1: you know the offensive system, because you're not gonna have

934
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:11,839
Speaker 1: an offseason, you might not even have a training camp.

935
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: So would you rather stay here on the one year

936
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 1: lesser deal or sign a maybe a multi year deal

937
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 1: somewhere else? But if you if you know, if you

938
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:20,839
Speaker 1: get done with Dolls to that year, you'll be able

939
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 1: to reap again after the season. Which way would you

940
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,320
Speaker 1: go down? I think it depends on how much it is.

941
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 1: Um If you're one year deal and annual equals that

942
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 1: that three year I'm asked me, I'm gonna stay where

943
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,840
Speaker 1: I'm comfortable later because I know the quarterback, I know

944
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: the training staff. I'm still gonna be working with these

945
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: guys with Britain Jim and I trust the fact that

946
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: they're going to get me back and they're gonna not

947
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:43,799
Speaker 1: let me get out there on the field until I'm

948
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 1: one hundred percent and ready to go. I don't have

949
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: that same trust if I go to another squad. So

950
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 1: that's just me. The hometown thing is a big is

951
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: a big deal. He's familiar with the coaches and to

952
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 1: know that Jerry Jose and him still has some type

953
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 1: of faith and believe in him to give him a

954
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: one year shot, I would still do that. Also depends

955
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: on who the quarterback is, Right, Am I going to

956
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: play with Aaron Rodgers? Am I going to play with

957
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: Tom Brady? Like like like? I think There's a lot

958
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: of stuff that goes into that decision. Guys. It's a

959
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: it's a tough situation for him, definitely hope he can

960
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 1: keep his spirits up here because he's had a very

961
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 1: tough season from what happened in Game one and having

962
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:23,760
Speaker 1: to set out. You finally come back, you find yourself

963
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: in a groove. And who I feel for Michael Gallant

964
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 1: because there's one of the good guys on the football

965
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,879
Speaker 1: team who also had gone out of his way, had

966
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: a little Christmas drive that he had for some kids.

967
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 1: I want to see what was over Dick Sporting Goods

968
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,919
Speaker 1: where he was trying to make people's Christmas has be better.

969
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: So I just hate to see that for him. But

970
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: hopefully um there's something bigger in his future and that

971
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:48,919
Speaker 1: he can come back and get all that he wants

972
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,800
Speaker 1: to from from the bag to statistics and and everything

973
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 1: to have a good NFL career. Let's end it there.
