This is Girls 3 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:18,959 Speaker 1: Talk Boys Talk, presented by Jigsaw Dating, Preferred Dating partner 4 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys and broadcasting live from Dallas Cowboys 5 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: World headquarters at the Star. Welcome into Girls Talk Boys Talk. 6 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: I am back, and I really appreciate this girls group 7 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: for really rallying because this is a passion project I'm 8 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: so proud of. I love that we've got so many 9 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: awesome girls that can talk ball. And then Haley, You've 10 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: been so awesome locking in here on days that I 11 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: can't host, she will be hosting. And then of course 12 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: we have a little bit of rotation with Kelsey Charles. 13 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: I kind of alluded to it on Twitter, and I 14 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: didn't quite know what to say about it because the 15 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,639 Speaker 1: news was kind of fresh. But the reason why I've 16 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: been a little bit Scatterbrainley Lee, as I found out 17 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: that my mom has terminal cancer. So that's tough. She 18 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: started chemo on Monday, and so I think I was 19 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: just kind of decompressing and resetting and breathing through the 20 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: information in the news. And so we're hoping that we 21 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: get at least a year with her. But in the meantime, 22 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: like I said, this job and talking cowboys has been 23 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: such a nice distraction and I love being able to 24 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: talk about a win. So yes, and I'm like, what 25 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: day is, say, Oh, yeah, today is Wednesday. So Wednesday 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: we were able to see Dak Prescott back at practice 27 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 1: and we saw him Hayley because you and I got 28 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: to see this, the open portion available to the media, 29 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: throwing with not the right hand but the left hand. Yeah. 30 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: I actually tweeted pictures of it because if you're not 31 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: if you weren't paying attention, you didn't realize it, because 32 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: it looks pretty natural. I'm sure a lot of quarterbacks 33 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: can do that too, but I made sure when I 34 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: tweeted to tweet the pictures of him going through quarterback 35 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: school and going through his progressions, he very clearly takes 36 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: it and puts it on this same thing he does 37 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: on his right hand, but with his left. And then 38 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: even told us in the locker room afterwards like, oh, like, 39 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: I'm so glad you guys enjoyed that I was. I 40 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: was giving you guys a show. So just Michael and ladies, 41 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys. I get there's a 42 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: level of gamesmanship. But as I was sort of tossing 43 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: this around with some of the guys, because it took 44 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: me a second to notice it at first, I was like, oh, 45 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: that the balls got a little bit of a zip 46 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: on it, right, yeah? Right? Uh. We started speculating, well 47 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: why do that? And I think the reason why they 48 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: don't put him out there in front of us isn't 49 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: because they're planning to sneak him in here on Friday 50 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: and say he's starting against the Eagles. I think the 51 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: reason is as he starts throwing, they don't want us 52 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: taking pictures of it and talking about it exactly right. Yeah, 53 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: And so he did say in the locker room that 54 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: he wanted everyone to talk to the receivers and what 55 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: did the receivers have to say? And they said he 56 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: had a little bit of pop on it. But remember 57 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: we talked about this guy's I didn't think the Eagles 58 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: was a good game for him to come back to. Yeah, anyway, 59 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: I used to did it change your mind at all? 60 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: Because where we talked about Cooper Rush, what if he 61 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,839 Speaker 1: gets so in against the Rams and then what if 62 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: you bring in Dak and he struggles on the road 63 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: and Sunday Night football, how that would be for his 64 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: psyche after seeing Cooper Rush in this specifically the defense 65 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: do what they did on the road on Sunday. Do 66 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: you like the move here that one more week Cooper Rush. 67 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: I think it makes sense actually, you know, with how 68 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: the flow of things are going with this offense, but honestly, 69 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: with the matchup, I think that it makes sense that 70 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: it's okay that they continue to play with with Cooper Rush. 71 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys should have spots to be able 72 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,119 Speaker 1: to run the ball, Like there's going to be opportunity 73 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: there for them. And I think that if this offense 74 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: wants to come out and kind of prove they can 75 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: move the ball, this is the defense to do it against. 76 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: It is definitely the toughest test here, I guess you 77 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: want to say, but with Cooper Rush, Like I'm this 78 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: is a better decision. This is the best decision I 79 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: did not. I was in a place to where I 80 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: was like, I don't want to rush Dack back in 81 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: any capacity and for them to you know, kind of 82 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: slow play it again like Mike McCarthy, don't play about injury, y'all. 83 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: Like I don't know when everybody gonna get it, but 84 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: he don't play, and so I'm okay with this decision, 85 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: absolutely yeah, and especially after going back, and I's just 86 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: going to be so proud of me. I was watching 87 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: all twenty two all morning, so she's proud of that. 88 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: And so, you know, what I was noticing is how 89 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: the Eagles defense is quick on the pass rush. And 90 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: that makes me nervous in terms of putting Dak in 91 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: for this specific game, not because I don't think he 92 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: can go in and win, but I always worry about 93 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: the re injury portion of things and putting somebody back 94 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: into prematurely. And we talked about it, Jane. You and 95 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: I both were on the same page of at this point, 96 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: what is going to hurt them by keeping him out 97 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: until after the bye week. I really, the more I'm 98 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: looking at it and the more things are panning out 99 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: and the way that Cooper Rush has been playing, I'm 100 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: still on that train with you, Jane. I don't know 101 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: if you're still there too, but I'm okay with keeping 102 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: Dak out until after the bye week. If anything, the 103 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: Bears game the week before the bye week to get 104 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: his footing on the ground. His mentals back where they 105 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: need to be and then go from there, because I 106 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: think at this point, risking reinjury is the biggest issue, 107 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: and I feel like he's so so close to getting 108 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: back to fully healthy. That's almost the worst time to 109 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: get a reinjury because then you're mentally like, oh, well, 110 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: I'm defeated because now it's going to be instead of 111 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: a two week wait, you know how many more weeks 112 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: on top of that. And we had talked about his 113 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: initial estimation time of being out and we're right on that. Really, 114 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: so I'm okay with not seeing Dak in rush hour 115 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: it is, and we're okay with that. Well, what did 116 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy say today? He said, it's a seventeen game season. Yeah, 117 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: and for him, it's always been a medical process. And 118 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, I'd said this a couple weeks ago. I 119 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: thought it was a little disrespectful to talk about Dak 120 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: coming back in four weeks, especially from an injury like this, 121 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: And then you know, we've since heard him sort of 122 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: walk it back and say, you know, it's all about 123 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: the grip, the quickness and getting the ball out. But 124 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: he also said spend on the ball, Like I said, 125 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: that multiple times since. So when he says something like 126 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: that in multiple times, it sounds like that's what doctors 127 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: and the rehab guys are saying to him. And so 128 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 1: now he's reiterating that, which tells me that I don't 129 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: know if we're going to see him against Detroit. If 130 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: he's just now beginning to throw. When he's doing it 131 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: at the close portion of practice, I wasn't beginning. I 132 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: didn't feel like it was Rams, I didn't feel like 133 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: it was Eagles. Now beginning to really question if it's Detroit. 134 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: And I had thrown out this idea of having him 135 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: wait for the bye week, which is literally only two 136 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: more weeks. I don't know if they're going to be 137 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: able to get Deck to wait that long. Yeah, that's 138 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: that's exactly what I was going to say. I think 139 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: in theory that sounds great, right, Like, sure, it's only 140 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: two more weeks, keep him out, But you see how 141 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: he is out there with the guys, Like even when 142 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: he is throwing with his left hand, he's so engaged. 143 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: He's you know, joking around with guys like Zeke and 144 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: Michael Gallop while they're going through their you know, rehab progressions. 145 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: Early in so he's got that starting quarterback mentality, he's 146 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: got that competitor mentality, right, Like, I don't know that 147 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: you can if he feels like I've completed all of 148 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: the checklists, I've done the work, I've done the rehab. 149 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: This was the time you guys told me that I 150 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: needed to sit down. No way, Yeah, yeah, And I 151 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: think you know what I think. Look the two ramp 152 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: up games that make sense their home games, right, so 153 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: I think I think that's big for Dak. You've got 154 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: Detroit and then you've got the Bears, and then you've 155 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: got the Buy So I think it could be Detroit 156 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: or the Bears. But again this week, for anyone that 157 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: was holding out hope that you're going to see Dak 158 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: Prescott or that this is just some you know, them 159 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: trying to pull the wool over our eyes, it's not happening. 160 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: Mike even told us today, he said, I mean, and 161 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: you know how you know ominous he is with his 162 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: He literally said, you know, like we can assume that 163 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: we are preparing for Cooper Rush to be the starting 164 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: quarterback on Sunday. He'd have to make significant strides. And 165 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: I think even my colleagues sit n a film networking 166 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: Ian rerapport and Tom Pellicero said as much. So again, 167 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: if you're hiding is throwing towards the end of practice, 168 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: and this is the first week he is quote unquote throwing, 169 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: and Mike McCarthy wants to see at least a week 170 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: of him throwing. It makes absolutely no sense that they 171 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: would see him this weekend. Like I said on the game, 172 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: on a Sunday game on the road against the Eagles, 173 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: you're going to see him again, So it doesn't make 174 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: sense in my opinion, to play him. So yeah, there's 175 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: there's that update. As for Micah Parsons, I thought his 176 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: play on Sunday is, you know, it's I think it's 177 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: premature to talk about a guy only two years in 178 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: his career as a future Hall of Famer, but this 179 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: is sort of the trajectory that this guy is on. 180 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: And I think a game like he played, not only 181 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: the game in New York where he's playing through flu 182 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: like symptoms, and then to play on the road the 183 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: way that he did with the ramps, through the groin 184 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: injury and to be such a key part of that 185 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: final play of that game says so much about him. 186 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: But when he tells you he's going to play and 187 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: he's ready for a game like the Eagles. There's nobody 188 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: who gets his juices going for a divisional game more 189 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: than that guy. So I have no reasonably that the 190 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: groin is going to be an issue for him in 191 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: that one. Either. What do you think? Yeah, I mean, 192 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: he didn't practice today. I saw him kind of off 193 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: to the side again, doing the typical rehab stuff that 194 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: those guys are. But I don't think that Mike is 195 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: a dishonest person. I think that he would be pretty 196 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: you know, he wouldn't maybe say like, oh, I don't 197 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: think I'm going to play if he didn't think he 198 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: was going to play. But on the flip side of that, 199 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: I don't think that he would come out and say 200 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: there's no issue in me playing if he had no 201 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: intent of playing. And we kind of talked about this 202 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: earlier after listening to Mike McCarthy speak this morning. Mica 203 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: is a unique player in that he's not going to 204 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: lose a stride by missing a Wednesday practice or a 205 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: Thursday or even the whole week. You know, like he's 206 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: a guy who takes care of himself outside of the 207 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: football field, outside of practice and you know, you throw 208 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: him into the game on Sunday and he's going to 209 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: figure it out no matter what. So I don't think, 210 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: especially for this to be a big of a division 211 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: matchup as it is, he's not missing it. You have 212 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: to put the line in a cage to keep him 213 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: off the field. Even then he would he would rip 214 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: it apart and come out. But no, I think what 215 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: they do with Mica even during the Rams game, of 216 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: giving him those limited reps and putting him in on 217 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: those third down conversions was huge. So um, even if 218 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: they have to kind of take that approach, which you 219 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 1: know he's not gonna love anyways. He wants to be 220 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: out there every single time the ball is on the 221 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: on the field and the defense is there. But um, 222 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: I think when you look at Micah Parsons, he's such 223 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: an impact player, and like Hayley said, I mean he 224 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: can afford to miss a day. He's not a player 225 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: that is going to just you know, take that day 226 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: off for granted and kick it back and be you know, 227 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: a lazy day. No, that's that's not his mentality. And 228 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: even I firmly believe even if he was just doing rehab, 229 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: he's still working. That's still work. Football rehab is still 230 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: work even if you're not participating in practice. So yeah, 231 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: we're I'm not I'm not worried about Micah. I think Mica, 232 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: like I said, you're gonna have to put the man 233 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: in the cage to keep him off the field, and 234 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: even then he would find a way out. I think 235 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: what excites me is the matchup too, of seeing Micah 236 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: Parsons trying to get to a guy like Jalen Hurts, 237 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: because I think I think a lot of the quarterbacks 238 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: he's had this year, you know, he's done such an 239 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: admirable job getting to the guys that he's gotten to, 240 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: but a guy like Jalen Hurts is so elusive and 241 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: this guy is on when this year. I used to 242 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: when you look at the tape, how hard is it 243 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: going to be from Mike A. Parsons to track a 244 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: track a guy like Jalen. So it honestly, for me, 245 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: it depends. I personally would like to see see Michael 246 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: play more linebacker this game when you look at the 247 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense and what they do. Um dan Quinn talked 248 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: about it in his interview Voice press conference where he 249 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: was saying that They play very unselfishly and you see 250 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 1: that on tape. What they do. I don't know if 251 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: this is the right verbis y'all know, I'm still learning, 252 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: But it's like they funnel guys to the playmakers, right, 253 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: so when you look at what you're getting from the 254 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: DT play. We didn't talk about it yet, but Quinn 255 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: Bohanna didn't play last week. We'll see if he plays 256 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: this week. The Dts are really doing a lot of 257 00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: the dirty work. They're enforcing, forcing the running back and 258 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: stuff too, to the ends, to the defensive ends, and 259 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: they're making the plays. But I'm really looking at with 260 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons as the linebacker coming in, I think that 261 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: the linebacker position is going to be important in this game. 262 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,719 Speaker 1: And then trusting their eyes and understanding things. You see 263 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: Anthony Barring. They're directing traffic a lot, even though he's 264 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 1: coming along with this defense. I think he's going to 265 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: be important as well. So maybe Mica can go free sometimes. 266 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: But I see them really funneling guys too, specific playmakers 267 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 1: to make the play really in like the A and 268 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: B gap. Jalen Hurts is good, he has a scapability. 269 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: What they need to do in this game is to contain. 270 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: This is something they've been working on, really containing the 271 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: edge and making guys go in the direction of where 272 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 1: they want to make these tackles that I think that 273 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: Micah said in the tone you look listening to sounds 274 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: of the sideline, he really is not playing, like not playing. 275 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: And I think that his interview after the game talking 276 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: about this, I've never been a part of a team 277 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: like this. Well, we play for each other. You see 278 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 1: that on the field. So the rat lead to the ball. 279 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: This game is going to be important. Tackling, being sure 280 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: of your eyes, everybody playing their assignment is going to 281 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: be important in this game. But I a specific think 282 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: with his elusiveness, it's it's a big driving force for 283 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: their offense. Like they play so much of their offense 284 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: off of the RPO. It's very contingent on can he 285 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: get going? If you want to be real, he's there 286 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 1: RB one. I mean they're getting, they're getting, they're getting. 287 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: You look at the rushing leaders. Absolutely they're getting numbers 288 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: from Miles Sanders like he's getting you know, he's getting 289 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: some stuff here and there. But if you're able to 290 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: minimize this gentleman's run ability, you really change how they 291 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: play offense, and they don't like that. And the Cowboys 292 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: run defense has been a little suspect. That's the only 293 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: thing that worries me. And so I love this idea, 294 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 1: this notion that you're like, you know what, I do 295 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: want him playing as a linebacker to help contain a 296 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: little bit more. And I love that you're so humble 297 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: in your knowledge. Fun. Oh yeah, I'm still this girl. 298 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: You've got this girl. And ask for Quentin Bohada. He 299 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: was a full participant. Yeah, do you speak in my 300 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: life with Jane because he is, I mean underratedly has 301 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: had a really good season. Like a lot of the 302 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: success that you see from the Edges is because the 303 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: DT position. Um. Tristan Tristan Hill, Neville Gallimore. Um. I 304 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: think that last week OsO Digizua, he stepped up. That's 305 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: my guy. Um. But I think their play is going 306 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: to be important this game again because again, like they 307 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: can't run the ball, but where Jalen likes to escape 308 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: is through the middle of your defense. So these guys 309 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: are gonna have to come up and tackle, make him 310 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: pay for it, make him pay every single time. And 311 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry y'all hopefully, but make him pay every time 312 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: he puts the I mean, I'm just being honest, Like 313 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: I so, Mica playing linebacker is what I want to 314 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: see in this game. Afinutely absolutely rushing certain positions in 315 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: certain situations. But yeah, he needs to be men in 316 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: the middle of that field and making sure that Jalen's 317 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: not getting out of there. Something else to keep an 318 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: eye on, too, is the Eagles tight end screens, because 319 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: that was something aren't you so proud? Look look talking 320 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: to Aisha, I have gained so much football knowledge these 321 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: last few weeks. So love Ayisha, you know that. But 322 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: you know what I was watching back today and I 323 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: was watching and I was looking, and I was like, oh, man, 324 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: I feel like my inner Aisha's is coming out with 325 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: these tight end screens because that's something you always talk about. 326 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: And tight end Dallas Goddard, that is Jalen Hurtz's guy. 327 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: So if you're going to keep an eye on anybody, 328 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: and we're not even talking about the run game, we're 329 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: talking about the pass game, it is that man. It 330 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: is tight end Dallas Goddard. We know his first name 331 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: is Dallas, So it gets a little confusing, right when 332 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: you're talking about it. But what I noted on here 333 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: was that he is just so versatile with these screens. 334 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: And not only that he can block, the man can block. 335 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: So this can be a big challenge because he looked 336 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: great last week. He also last week he had eight 337 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: catches for ninety five yards and he led the Eagles 338 00:15:55,560 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: in receding yards against against the Cardinals. And so something 339 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: to be watched is the Cowboys tackling needs to be 340 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: on part because after he's catching the balls, he's still 341 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: getting yardage on those tackles. So the Cowboys tackling, defensive 342 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: tackling needs to be on part. Off my soapbox. Now, yeah, 343 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: the girl, I'm telling you the guy. They got bubble screens, 344 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: the lay screens, uh, jailbreak screens. You need another screen. 345 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe that's important. Maybe I'm telling but they do 346 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: run a lot of screens. And credit to Dallas Goddard, 347 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: Like I remember all the controversy with the Cowboys when 348 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: he got drafted and stuff, and he really has become 349 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: a more than formidable tight end. I think he's a 350 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: really good tight end because he does all of the 351 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: extra stuff. He's helping guys out in the running game, 352 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: in the blocking game, but as he's their safety blanket 353 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: when when when Jalen is like, I don't know where 354 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: I want to throw this ball right now. Like even 355 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: if you look at the receivers, you know they're getting 356 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: some play too, But this guy is a focal point 357 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: of their offense. In again, jay Ron Curse. You know 358 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: this is second week back from the injury. He's that 359 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: matchup is actually something I'm very interested to see because 360 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: I think he's he's a big part of what they 361 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: do offensively. Yeah, I just wanted to add really quick. 362 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: While we were talking about Jalen Hurts and matchups that 363 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: were excited to see. I'm working on a piece and 364 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: we talked about yesterday, just like previewing the rivalry and 365 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: between Dallas and Philly, and so I was talking to 366 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: some of the guys in the locker room about that. 367 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: And my favorite interview by far today was with Doran's 368 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: Armstrong because him and Jalen went to high school together, 369 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 1: and so he's talking about all these things. How you know, 370 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 1: like he hasn't had a chance to sack Jalen Hurts yet, 371 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: so that's on his list of things to do. He's 372 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: already planning, like his celebration like when he gets to 373 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: him on Sunday. But I think that that's another when 374 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: you're talking about Michael Parsons and kind of shifting his role, 375 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: I think that that gives way to people like Doran's 376 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: Armstrong to step in and have another big game like 377 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: he did on Sunday. So just something to pay attention 378 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: to now that it's kind of out in the world. 379 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: He's kind of said, you know, like I got Jalen's number, 380 00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: this is my year type thing. And I like that 381 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: you said when he gets that sack. I like, guys, 382 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: I'm such a proud, proud pod mom. No, Like Jess, 383 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: I've really seen some of your film study. Step up, Aisha, 384 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: You've been impressive from the jump, and I just love 385 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: some of the insight in the locker room.

Dalton Sholtz limited 444 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: with the knee. I still don't know what I think 445 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: about where he's at in his process. Yeah, so we'll 446 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: see that where that one goes breath though, my goodness, 447 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: huh oh dang, y'all y'all can see me that too. Shoot, bad, 448 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 1: my bad. I was saying that in my head, out 449 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: of me for us to come out loud. But I'm 450 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: just I just don't know what's going on with dn't shows. 451 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: And my thing is is if I want him healthy, 452 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: if he's out there and he's not healthy, then the 453 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: guys that are healthy need to be out there. There's 454 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: two cowboys, do too much in twelve personnel and you know, 455 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: running the ball for these gentlemen not to be able 456 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: to you know, do that and be healthy. So I'm 457 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:03,199 Speaker 1: just like pick one. Well, your boy, Jake Ferguson was 458 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: a full go, so that's good news for you. So 459 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: there is some of your injury updates. Let's talk a 460 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: little bit about Ezekiel Elliott. I love the swag this year, 461 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: and I think some of that comes with being in 462 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: year seven. One of my favorite things that Dak said 463 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: was he was talking about he thought he was in 464 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: year six. Zeke remind him it was year seven and say, 465 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 1: I kind of blocked out that one year. I can relate, right, 466 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: But what I've seen as a transformation about Zeke and 467 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: Zeke is one of these players that so many people 468 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: ask me about off to the side, what's Zeke like? 469 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: And I'll honestly say, he has really evolved into such 470 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 1: a mature and more vocal leader in that locker room. 471 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: I think that there was a hesitation to be that 472 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: guy in the first couple of years because of some 473 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 1: of the off the field stuff, right, But I think 474 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: when we've seen Dad go down or guys in the 475 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 1: offensive line, Zeke has really sort of stepped it up. 476 00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: And I loved when he was asked about the fact 477 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys had into this game as underdogs, and 478 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: he said, stuff don't matter, man, And he said it 479 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: less eloquently that underdog stuff don't matter. All we're worried 480 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: about is the group in the building, and then he 481 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 1: further went on to say that it was He was 482 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: asked if it was disrespectful to see to talk about 483 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: whether Dak was actually the quarterback, and he said, we're 484 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. People always have something to say about as fam. 485 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: All we care about is what's in this locker room 486 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,959 Speaker 1: and what's in the building. Into what you said earlier, 487 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons, I have not seen this locker room come 488 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: together the way that they have since that twenty sixteen 489 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: rookie season for Dak and Zeke. And to appreciate where 490 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: this locker room has come from, you'd have to have 491 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: been covering this team during COVID and I had put 492 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: out that report about what some of the players had 493 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: to say about the coaching staff, and there was a 494 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: lot of infighting on the defensive side of the ball 495 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: that led to that being a really crummy year for 496 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 1: this team for lack of a better word. But to 497 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: see them turn it around as quickly as they did, 498 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: that to me is something else. And to have done 499 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: it with so much adversity in the last couple of years. 500 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: I mean, we lost a strength and conditioning coach around here, 501 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: you lost your defensive coordinator, you literally lost your quarterback twice, 502 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: you lost your defensive end and DeMarcus Lawrence, you lost 503 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 1: your starting left tackle and Tyren Smith. So I think 504 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: that's why this thing is so impressive. And to win 505 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: the way that did. Remember I told you guys, if 506 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: they went on the road against Sean McVay, one of 507 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: the best offensive minds in the business, I mean that 508 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: was a dam Quinn game, right yeah. But for them 509 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: to win on the road the way they did that, 510 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: everyone would start talking about the Super Bowl in the 511 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys and I'm seeing list begin to shift. You know, Now, 512 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: this is a team, you know, of thirty two teams 513 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: in the league, a top ten team that we could 514 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: see at the end of the season. I'm even saying 515 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: top five which is wild without your starting quarterback. Yeah, 516 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: that's what makes it more impressive. And then I think 517 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: we have to shift the conversation to Mike McCarthy. Yeah, 518 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 1: I mean it is this literally a Coach of the 519 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: Year performance from him. I think he's got to be 520 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: in the conversation. Yeah. And someone pointed out as well too, 521 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: and something I was listening to probably on the radio. 522 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: But with Mike McCarthy, it's so interesting because nobody ever 523 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: really applauds him when things are going right, you know, 524 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: nobody goes like, Wow, Cooper Rush has led the Dallas 525 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys to a foreign run record and they're getting ready 526 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: to play the Eagles and they might have a shot. 527 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: Nobody goes, that's Mike McCarthy. But as soon as you know, 528 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: knock on wood, something happens on Sunday, all of a sudden, 529 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: it's so like the Cowboys are frauds. Mike McCarthy doesn't 530 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: have a handle on it. And I've just I've really 531 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: enjoyed getting to know Mike as a person over the 532 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. Just sitting into those press conferences, 533 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: you can see him get a little bit more comfortable, 534 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: a little less stiff, and so I just I agree. 535 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: I think you can't talk about what this team has 536 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 1: done without looking at the leadership because it starts at 537 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: the top. And I think it's really good that the 538 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: coordinators Dan Quinn in particular, are so complimentary of him, 539 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: and they're so good. Even Jerry is so good about 540 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: saying like this whole operations. He always likes to say, yeah, 541 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't be happening without Mike. So I definitely think that's 542 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: if not now, in the future, it's obviously a conversation. Well, 543 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: I love that you have this percent be because you 544 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: haven't necessarily been around this team the last couple of years. 545 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: I know you're from here, but to have come in 546 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: to this facility and be around these guys and I 547 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: have sort of this fresh set of eyes on this 548 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: team and kind of what they're doing right now because 549 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: Mike is and look hand up first year. I think, 550 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 1: and I've said this, I think the technology thing in 551 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: the COVID thing really hampered his ability to connect with 552 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 1: the players. Understandably so too, but the way that they 553 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: sort of mimic the things that he's saying. And then 554 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: as we've talked about, I feel like he slow plays. 555 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: These guys coming back from injury, and I think that's 556 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: a big, big deal. It's no different. Again, this is 557 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: a terrible analogy, but just at my work, mentally, I 558 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: feel injured right now, and my bosses are like, come 559 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: back when you're ready. Do you know how much that 560 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: makes you want to run through a wall for people? 561 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: And so I think that when I look at some 562 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 1: of these guys, I don't feel like they're getting rushed 563 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: back by injury. I think it might be frustrating to them, 564 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 1: but I think he is looking out for them and 565 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: a lot of teams don't do that. And I think 566 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: a lot of it too, is having that continuous conversation, 567 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: as he likes to say, with them when it comes 568 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: to injury. He said, it's not just multiple conversations, it's 569 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: a continuous conversation. And something that I really can appreciate 570 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: about Mike McCarthy is, yes, of course he puts the 571 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: importance on the physical injury aspect of it, but the 572 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: mental health aspect of it I think is so huge 573 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: for Mike McCarthy and the culture that he's allowed to 574 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: open up because he's saying, hey, you know, even look 575 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: at Michael Gallop, Michael Gallup felt comfortable enough to say mentally, 576 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: I'm not there, mentally, I'm not ready. That is huge 577 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 1: because that just shows you the amount of trust that 578 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: these players have within Mike McCarthy and you know, we 579 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: talked about it a few weeks ago. They're using the 580 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: same language, the EBB and flow and that at the 581 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 1: end of the the bay. I mean, there's all of these 582 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: terms that you hear echoed. And it's not even just 583 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy and the players. It's Kellen Moore, it's Dan Quinn, 584 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: it's bones, fossil. Everybody is using these terms. And they're 585 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: so bought into this culture because it's a healthy culture. 586 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: I mean, really, you look at any workplace you don't 587 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: want to work for. A toxic work environment doesn't make 588 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: you want to show up to work. So I know 589 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: nothing about I've been in a few of those, yeah, 590 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: and I think you want to come to work. And 591 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: there it was a toxic work environment, specifically for the 592 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball two years ago. And you know, 593 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: I've I've gotten into that over the last couple of 594 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: years about some of the stuff that was said, but 595 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: some of that was some of the players they brought 596 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: in and the current players. Some of it was the 597 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: coaching staff, but look how those guys ride for each other, 598 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: even dan Quinn after the game running up to Trey 599 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: bo yeah and just standing shaking everyone's he's up in 600 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: the booth calling the place right. So he's not on 601 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: the field high fiving these guys. Those are the little 602 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: things that go so far. And so I don't think 603 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: you can put your hand, put your finger on one 604 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: thing that's made this team successful this year. It's a 605 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: multitude of things, but also people that have bought in 606 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: and to your point, Haley, it does start at the top. No. 607 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: I also think too, when you're talking about Mike McCarthy, 608 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: this is his third year, and I think that it 609 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: really matters that he's gotten to completely this offseason. I 610 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: thought it was important for him to do a full 611 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: install of his system of doing things, and he talked 612 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 1: about that so much in training camp and when he 613 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: talked to the press about Hey, I'm trying to establish 614 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: something here. He's trying to get these guys and used 615 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: to the flow of how things go, and we I remember, 616 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: like a lot of us were like what they doing. 617 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: They're taking a day off pay off. Like a lot 618 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: of people were like, what are you doing? But he 619 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: has a way of doing things. It seems different than 620 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: how a lot of other teams handle stuff, But it's 621 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: paying dividends at this point. And you listen to these 622 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: guys even like sounds of the sideline shout out to you, Alex, 623 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: because we get to see and hear what these players 624 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: feel during the game, and it's it's so valuable because, 625 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: like as we're talking about, it reassures you, right that 626 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: what you're seeing on the field, what you hear is real. Right, 627 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: Like the interviews you guys are doing YouTube ladies are doing, 628 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: they're saying, yeah, we play for you see it on 629 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: the field, and you hear it on the sideline. They're 630 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: coming back talking to each other. Even to your point 631 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: about um, you know Ezekiel Elliott stepping up as a leader. 632 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: I feel like Tony Pollard has been one of the 633 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: most vocal I've ever seen him be because I'm not 634 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: a very vocal guys and he's not right and he's 635 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: not but this year, listen to him, He's talking to 636 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: guys on the sideline, going and tapping him up and 637 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: stuff like there is a legit culture here, and I 638 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: know it's hard for people to accept because so cowboys 639 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: nothing is real. I don't believe it. Nah. Like I 640 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: think a lot of it too, is like they feel 641 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: like it's us against them, Like they're they're at this 642 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: point with all the outside noise and all the conversation 643 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: and stuff, they had to hone in on each other 644 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: and what they do well, and I think that they're 645 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: just finding identity and it's important, right. Yeah, I was 646 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: just gonna say, I think they feel like they just 647 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: have nothing to lose. I mean, like there's not a 648 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: further panic button that you can hit than losing your 649 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: starting quarterback and your left tack. Yeah, on the first game, Like, 650 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: I mean, there's not a whole lot more that can really, 651 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: you know, like all right, and then sure that first 652 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: game with Cooper, we were like, okay, like Cooper did it, 653 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: but he's not it again. Oh well, they did again 654 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 1: it again. So I just feel like every single week, 655 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 1: like not that they don't take it serious, because it's 656 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: very clear they take it serious, but they just they 657 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: go into it with the mentality of like what would 658 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: just say yolo? Well, And it's very different than when 659 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton was their backup. That locker room did not 660 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: rally around Andy Dalton the way that they do Cooper Rush. 661 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: And that's why we have talked about this in the 662 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. People wanted them to go on 663 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: the street, pull a guy in, have him leave the offense. 664 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: But these guys told us, and a lot of us 665 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: didn't believe it because we didn't see it with their 666 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: eyes and we weren't in the locker room. There's so 667 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: much in the media we think we know, but we're 668 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: not privy to right. These guys had the ultimate confidence 669 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: in him. And I was even talking to Zack Martin 670 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, and just the way that 671 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: he was talking about how Cooper will pull dak aside 672 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: and say, hey, I saw this, or how somebo It's 673 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: almost like he was describing a Kellen Moore to me 674 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: the way they talked about Kellen Moore. And I think 675 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: it was Wink Martindale a couple of weeks ago for 676 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: the Giants when he was saying, this guy's going to 677 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: be a coordinator one day. I don't think any of 678 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: us looked at Cooper Rush and thought that. I think 679 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: a lot of us sort of disrespected Cooper Rush, and 680 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: I'll say a lot of us I did. I literally thought, 681 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: this is a guy that literally the Giants let go. 682 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: He he clears waivers thirty one other teams didn't want him. 683 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a really incredible story for Cooper Rush. 684 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to be interested to see how this story 685 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: progresses as the season goes along, because, look, I do 686 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: worry about Dak coming back and struggling, and I worry 687 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: about it specifically because the offense and Cooper and Cooper 688 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: Rush have done well because Cooper's not trying to do 689 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: too much. They're simplifying the offense. When he needs to 690 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: throw the deep ball, he does. His receivers are finally 691 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: running the right routes. You've got a guy like Michael 692 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: Gallup on the field that's able to take some pressure 693 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: off of Ceedee Lamb. So some of these things are 694 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: coming together. And by the way, like I said, your 695 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: offensive line is playing really, really well. Really going to 696 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: be interesting to see what Jason Peters looks like when 697 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 1: you plug him in more. Yeah, but I just don't 698 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: want to see Dak as any of us would. When 699 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: you feel like you've been gone for a while and 700 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: somebody else is edging you out a bit that you 701 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: have to press. That's a human thing to do. That's 702 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: not a knock on Dak. That's a human thing to do. 703 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:43,959 Speaker 1: I think he's been here, but I think he's I 704 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: think I just feel like with Dak Prescott specifically, he's 705 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: one of those guys when you look at his story 706 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: and you look at everything he's been through from from 707 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: high school to now, I find it very difficult to 708 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: just doubt his You know where he is and what 709 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: he's capable of doing. Also, too, I feel like he's 710 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: he's talked about pressure before. He's talked about controlling the 711 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: things he can control, and honestly, also he's also talked 712 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: about we talked about yesterday with jury he had had 713 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: she put out an interview he had and he was 714 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 1: talking about how things are simple for him now, how 715 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: it's it's called everything slowing down for him. He's calmer now, 716 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: And I just feel like, coming back into this offense, 717 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 1: with how heavily they are relying on the run, play 718 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: action stuff like that, he should be able to come 719 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: in here and it be like a simpler transition for him. 720 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: I feel like some of the pressure that you're you 721 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: know you're talking about for him to want a press 722 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 1: should be taken away with the ease of Hey, I 723 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,919 Speaker 1: have guys around me, I have a team that has 724 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: the capability to come together and play without me. I 725 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,919 Speaker 1: have special teams who will come in and make place 726 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: for me as well. Yeah, we gotta get there, we 727 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: gotta get there. But I just I really feel like 728 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 1: some of the pressure maybe he felt in years past 729 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: where this defense wasn't this good, where the special teams, 730 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: which we haven't talked about, has improved a lot in 731 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 1: the last coup years as well, statistically, like he doesn't 732 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 1: he should not feel like he has to have all 733 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: the weight of his shoulders on his shoulders. And I 734 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: feel like he said, you know, he's kind of set 735 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 1: that and hinted to that in his interviews lately. So 736 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm I'm not as worried about him 737 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 1: because I feel like he'd been here before. I also 738 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 1: really love that Mike McCarthy was asked about the theme 739 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: of resilience and why he picked that before the season 740 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: even started. Why resilience, He said, just this group, And 741 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think any other word can describe 742 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: this team any better because they have gone through so 743 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: much in these last few weeks alone, I mean before 744 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 1: the season even started. Yeah, Tyron Smith that was injured, 745 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: and the sky was already falling before Game one even started. 746 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: And then you know, the shift at the OH line 747 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: and then Dad goes down and I just will never 748 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: forget walking out of the stadium and all of the 749 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys fans were so defeated by the season is over. 750 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 1: Oh no, and reasonably so. We didn't know what to 751 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: expect out of Cooper Rush. Nobody expected Cooper Rush to 752 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: come out and play like this, really nobody did. I 753 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: think the team did. But out on the outside looking in, 754 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: it's it's much easier to speculate like, oh, we've only 755 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,800 Speaker 1: seen him win one game is as a Cowboys starter, 756 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 1: it was it was easy to fall on that side 757 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 1: of it. But I think the word resilience is just 758 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 1: so key for this entire team, but Dak Prescott especially, 759 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,279 Speaker 1: I think if if the timing is right for him 760 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 1: to come back, he's going to know that. And I 761 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: really think Dak is going to say, yes, I want 762 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: to be out on the field. But I also think 763 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 1: he's going to, you know, take his mental health series 764 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: like Michael Gallup does and did with that injury to say, 765 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: all right, maybe not yet, but looking forward. And the 766 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:37,879 Speaker 1: good thing about all of this, and I've said it, 767 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 1: is Cooper Rush has now given the padding to this 768 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,799 Speaker 1: team that Dak can take his time to come back 769 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 1: and he does not have to feel rushed, He does 770 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: not have to feel like he has to put the 771 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: weight of the world on his shoulders. When he comes back. 772 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 1: He can slowly ease back in. He doesn't have to, 773 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: but we will because he's Yeah, you know, I'm ready 774 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: to say I understand where you're coming from and that, 775 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: and I know that Dak's going to take it seriously. 776 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 1: But you know, we're not talking about a guy who's 777 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: in his third you know, like he's done this before. 778 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: He knows what it looks like, he knows his body, 779 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 1: and I you see it when he's when he's out there. 780 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,280 Speaker 1: You see him at practice like he is just itching 781 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 1: to get back out and and I'm glad you said 782 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 1: that earlier. The competitive side of it comes out because sure, 783 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: him and Cooper are boys. You see it on the sideline. 784 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: You see how they interact when they're around each other. 785 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 1: But Dack's the starting quarterback, he feels that, and I 786 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if he did feel a little bit 787 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: slided sometimes where it's like dang, like what about me? 788 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: Like you know, like you guys are so worried about 789 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,240 Speaker 1: my hand, like Jocquagan, I can ball like and and 790 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 1: to your point, like it's human, it's natural to feel 791 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: like that. We've all felt like that. So like again, 792 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: for sure, he's gonna he's gonna take the time. But 793 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: like I said earlier, as he checks those boxes off, 794 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 1: like the the the window for him to be patient 795 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: is anticipation, because that's what competitors do. That's what starting 796 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: quarterback that Drew Brees. I saw this because I covered 797 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 1: something very similar in New Orleans. Remember Teddy Bridgewater went 798 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 1: on a run for them. He was itching to get 799 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: back and he did the same stuff that I. Drew 800 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: Brees and Dak remind me a lot of each other 801 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,359 Speaker 1: and just the way they approached the game, the way 802 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: they galvanize the locker room. Who they are. But watching 803 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: his pregame warm up, which I always joked when they 804 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 1: when they talked about Dak's stance, I'm like Drew Brees 805 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,439 Speaker 1: has been doing that forever, like that was a Drew 806 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: Brees thing, and so I just remember watching kind of 807 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: the push back for him, and it was a healthy 808 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: locker room. Everyone loved Teddy, but Teddy knew his role 809 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 1: and so that's why they've think it's fascinating how this 810 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 1: front office and Jerry have sort of gotten lucky in 811 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: the last couple of years with draft picks, with some 812 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 1: of these injuries and the guys plays. I mean, we 813 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 1: haven't even talked about what do you do with Tyron 814 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: Smith when he comes back? Because of the way that 815 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: Tyler Smith is playing? Is it luck though, because they'd 816 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: be telling us like, no, we evaluated this guy here 817 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: and then we question who let everyone else questioned Tyler Smith? 818 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: He did that, but they told us like, no, this 819 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 1: guy is an adequate left tackle and he ended up 820 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: being I think a lot of like I think that 821 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 1: they drafted, especially defensively last year. They drafted with a purpose. 822 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: That's why you see Osa and Neville and like a 823 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 1: lot of these guys really come along, Chauncey Gholstan. But yeah, 824 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. I do think it's interesting what's going 825 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: on with the Dak Prescott thing. I don't want it 826 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,399 Speaker 1: to be any contention, and I don't think it will. 827 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: I don't want it to be any contention. And I 828 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: also feel like I I what I was saying is 829 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: that I don't feel like this shit affect his I don't. 830 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that. I think the way that the 831 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys are playing ball right now puts him in a 832 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: better position to not feel pressure to press it, like 833 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: you guys are talking about, you know, even with the 834 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: competitive nature. I'm like, I don't want him to feel 835 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 1: like that. I don't know like you guys are feeling. 836 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 1: Are you sensing that he feels pressure something? I just 837 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: think it's a human thing. Yeah, you know, I particularly 838 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: after a win on the road against Sean McVay and 839 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 1: the Rams, I mean that was a big game. Yeah, 840 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: and if he it's another big win, especially against another 841 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: we're talking and we're talking primetime. I mean, he's won 842 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings game. Primetime, everyone's seeing. You know. It's 843 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: like when you start winning some of these games, I 844 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,839 Speaker 1: just no matter how much I love somebody that I've 845 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 1: worked with, like, it starts to happen. You're like, yeah, 846 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,440 Speaker 1: well you start of getting a little it happens. No 847 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,440 Speaker 1: matter how much I want to see them to succeed. 848 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: Two you it gets in your head. And so that's 849 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: the only thing I say about you know, Dak is. 850 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 1: I truly hope the game he slows down for him, 851 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: and I hope he doesn't put too much of this 852 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 1: on himself. But he will, as anyone will. So there's 853 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: going to be just I think there'll be a little 854 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: of adjustment when he comes back something. Then I would 855 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 1: be interested in seeing if it's possible. And you're talking 856 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: about taking the pressure off of him as much as 857 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 1: as much as possible come his return time. We've seen 858 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 1: with the injuries and how the Cowboys have handled them 859 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: these ramp up phases, and you see Jason Peters with 860 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,239 Speaker 1: his ramp up, how he's slowly integrated back in at 861 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 1: that position. Now I'm wondering if at some point we 862 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 1: see Dak with a ramp up with Cooper rush Cooper rushes, 863 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 1: you're starting play him a few reps, you know, come 864 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: maybe Detroit and then maybe maybe see him a little 865 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: bit more come Chicago. I hear what you're saying, and 866 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:19,839 Speaker 1: it's not terrible because they did that a little bit 867 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,919 Speaker 1: with like the Again, I use the Saints as as 868 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: a comparison, they kind of did that a little with 869 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: the Taysom Hill. Yeah, that's what made me all of that. 870 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: I just think Dak's not dissimilar from like a Zeke 871 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: in the sense that he needs their reps to get 872 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: going and is confidence. So I don't see them doing that, 873 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: but I understand why you would bring that up, and 874 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 1: it's not terrible. I do think though, when you get 875 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: into the postseason, you could see them utilizing the talents 876 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:48,399 Speaker 1: of both. That's interesting and getting creative with this offense. Yeah, 877 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: I think that would be interesting. What's going to be 878 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 1: interesting is just taking a breaking, having three minutes when 879 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: we come back, because we've gotten so much talk about 880 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna take our final break, but we 881 00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:00,320 Speaker 1: come back. We've got past interference and just a few things. 882 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 1: A few notes about the Eagles because we spent so 883 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,919 Speaker 1: much time talked about the Cowboys.

I think offensively when you talk about this 925 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:26,880 Speaker 1: Eagles team hurts with his rushing touchdowns, his six leads 926 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 1: the league only Well, actually Nick Chubb has seven, so 927 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 1: there's your other rushing leader.

We haven't seen that 931 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,399 Speaker 1: from the Eagles since nineteen sixty two, so we knew 932 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 1: when they got a J. Brown, DeVante Smith. Thanks, we're 933 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: going to get ugly for them. So that's going to 934 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: be the challenge for the Cowboys. We'll see what they 935 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 1: do in terms of defensively matching up against that. Loved 936 00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 1: what you said earlier, Micah Parsons, we'll see him more 937 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: at line backer. Perhaps past interference from you. I love 938 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 1: that you brought up the sixties because I wanted to 939 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:08,279 Speaker 1: see the Cowboys largest victory against the Eagles and that 940 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 1: score difference that was actually October nineteen sixty six.
