I remember the first time every went 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:54.720 out to a game Jim Harbow was coaching, and. 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:58.280 Literally that was that was Jesse Holly's game. 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:09.320 If you have you ever told you what happened, It's like, Annis, 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:12.160 that's good good, right. 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:15.160 Was like I'm about second year in the league, Like 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:19.680 this is yet what if Jesse had scored? 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:23.280 Man, you definitely wanted to heard it had been a 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.359 national holiday one day. 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.200 When you watch the video again, if he showed you. 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:28.480 I'm in the background, Phil. 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:34.239 Walked down, cow walked. But hey, it was a big play, 0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:35.240 big play. 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:38.520 And I say that because that year the Niners. 0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:40.760 You didn't know how good the Niners were going to be, 0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:44.440 So the stadium was about sixty five percent Cowboy fans. 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:46.200 That was a good game. It was a good game. 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:47.919 It was a good game, and that's when hardball kind 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:49.600 of broke out and became the guy who came. But 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:52.680 that was an old Candlestick Park and now they play Levi's. 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:53.080 A whole different place. 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:56.359 It's hot, it's not, it's not. It's a different, different vibe. 0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:57.800 But the fans will show up. 0:02:57.960 --> 0:02:59.680 Let me ask you this, man, I know you grew 0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:01.560 up in the South, but back in the day, back 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:04.200 in the early eighties, man, that Candlestick Park, those games 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.720 like we had a twelve o'clock game Cowboys, but then 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:11.359 always the afternoon game would be San Francisco and Man Raftman, 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:14.040 Roger Craig Man, that was I mean, but these are 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:16.000 these are games that used to come on. Man, I'm 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:18.200 telling you, regardless of how you felt about the forty 0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:21.400 nine Ers, man, it just had that nostalgia around the uniform. 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.680 The teams that they put together, Steve Wash, Joe Munton, 0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:27.560 like all of those teams back then. That's why when 0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:29.640 people talk about this game and how special it is 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:33.000 from just a nostalgia standpoint, man, this is just crazy. 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:34.200 It means something. 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:35.040 Yeah. Absolutely. 0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:38.480 The first time I got to meet Dennis Thurman, former 0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:41.800 Cowboys player, was he was a dB coach of USC. 0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:46.960 It's about it was ninety ninety six. Yeah, bout ninety six. 0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:49.800 And I told them, how Man watched you growing up, 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:51.360 man number thirty two. 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:57.080 You know, I was like, I remember that that catch game. 0:03:57.200 --> 0:03:57.360 Man. 0:03:57.400 --> 0:03:59.720 I had to go to school after that game. Man, 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:02.240 I look said after the game, and I cried, and 0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:02.840 he looked at me. 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:07.600 You cried. You cried, You cried, you cried. 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:09.640 I just put my hands out. Yeah, hey you play, 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:14.440 You're okay? Okay, you know, yeah, you you actually did it. 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:20.680 He was there, Bill Wash and our boy Everson had 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:21.680 a great, great game. 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.520 You talk about one of the more unfair things in 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:28.800 life is how great Everson was in this game and 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:32.760 creating turnovers and and he's known for a pass that 0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:35.280 was a throwaway pass. 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.120 It sucks to climbed the ladder on that one. When 0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:41.120 I'm looking at the highlights, I'm like, up, Oh, she 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:43.040 was up there. He climbed it. He went up there 0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:43.640 and got that thing. 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.839 And Montana wasn't throwing it to Dwhite card he was 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:49.680 throwing it away. And I love the line that Bill 0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:53.159 Walsh ended up saying to Montana after the game, say, 0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:58.479 you know what, your buddy saved your because it was 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:00.880 supposed to happen in this the course. Heck, you know 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:04.000 because you were like you watched the Cowboys got the 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:07.600 ball back and went right down the field. They were 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:10.960 going down the field. Drew Pearson catches the ball over 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:18.839 the middle and he's gone except for Eric Wright pulled him. 0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:19.680 Go see that bigga. 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:21.599 See when I'm watching high Lands, I thought that was it, 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:24.720 Like he caught the ball. The people it was a rat. 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:27.520 So it was more the game so ever so so 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.920 Drew gets caught. 0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:32.000 Then they've got another They got another play. 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:35.600 Tom Rafferty and Danny White fumbled the snapping and just 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:37.919 things there. But they were going down the field and 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.680 it was going to be a Raffael Septyn field goal. 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:42.640 They're going to Super Bowl sixteen. They're going to beat 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.559 the Cincinnati Bengals. That's what's gonna happen. And Danny White's 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:47.920 gonna win the super That was what was supposed to happen. 0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:50.400 It didn't happen. I didn't want to go to school. 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.320 I cried because this. 0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:56.680 Was the second year in a row that they should 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:58.279 have been in the Super Bowl. Now they got me 0:05:58.360 --> 0:06:01.119 twenty to seven year before by Field Veteran Stateium, and 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:02.880 they made the Cowboys wear the damn. 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:07.000 Thee where to beat them up blues and took it 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:08.720 out of us right there, whole city when they saw 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:09.440 the blues, and like a. 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:15.680 Cow never wear white cowards. 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:16.920 And if WILB. 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:19.279 Montgomery had a good game, they won. Twenty said okay, fine, 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:22.560 next year. I'm like, you know, this is right right right, 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:26.719 it was supposed to be. And so fast forward Heckman 0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:29.120 and I now we're we're you know, we're at in 0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:30.840 college now and and and. 0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:32.320 It's ninety two. 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:35.000 Yeah, it's Jimmy running things. 0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:39.159 And this team, this forty nine ers team was expected 0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:42.280 to with everybody your candlestick part. These cowboys young and 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.680 ain't gonna have they bring out Roger Starbut on the 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:50.560 sidelines it's muddy, yeah, and Man's it was a beautiful 0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:53.679 ending and it and it ain't gonnat. It meant something. Man, 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:54.520 it meant more. 0:06:54.600 --> 0:06:55.960 I thought, as a grown man. 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:57.919 Now I'm in the TV business, I thought as a 0:06:57.920 --> 0:06:59.920 grown man, it wouldn't mean that it meant. 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:01.680 Was that the picture of em when he was on 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:04.000 the on the bench all muddied up. 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:05.640 That might have been a That might have been the 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:08.240 ninety four, That might have been the n Yeah, that 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:11.320 was ninety four, But ninety two. I was in high school, 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:12.120 knew it. But that's cool. 0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:14.320 No, no, no, that's not good. 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:16.080 I just want to tell you if you remember, if 0:07:16.120 --> 0:07:20.040 you remember that ninety two game, Alvin Harper, that Alvin 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:23.960 Harper catch, Now that's that's come on. Now, this is 0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:26.040 what I'm saying, like, this is why when I think 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:28.119 on this game, when I think about all those times 0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:31.280 that you just illustrated and went through. Man, that's why 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:34.480 this game right here is like, no matter how you 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:37.080 try and capitalize it or say how much it means 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:40.320 to the Cowboys, that's the history component to this game 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.680 that who's ever putting the highlight reel together right now 0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:46.320 for Sunday is having he got a lot of content 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:48.720 to add because it's a damn good game. 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:51.880 And the Cowboys need their Alvin Harper for this game. 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:56.480 Youngest the number one ranked defense in the league that year. 0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.040 And so the Dallas got out to a lead, they 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:03.160 cut it back and then North Turner asked, Jimmy Johnson, 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:07.240 what do you want to do because you've got the lead, 0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:09.280 you know, do you just try to milk the clock? 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:10.960 But sad, I want to win. 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:13.080 So he calls the pass. 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:24.640 Play and Michael Irvin me, yeah, he may help it. Harper, yeah, 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:29.320 And so Troy finds Alvin Harper. The grass, the grass 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:32.520 at Candlestick Park is bad, and there was the part, 0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:34.800 the part of the field that has had some different side. 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:38.640 Dana Hall slips, Alvin Harper, catches his streaks all the 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:44.000 way down inside the twenty yard line, runs it at 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:47.040 for a touchdown. They go to the Super Bowl and 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.760 it is Jimmy saying, how about them Cowboys? And and 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:56.600 for so many people this was this was monumental because 0:08:57.240 --> 0:08:59.800 those Tom Landry that was the that was the last 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:04.880 of it. Man, after that they cratered. Okay, after the catch, man, 0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:07.160 the times was rough and you never thought. 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:07.720 You'd see it again. 0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:11.880 And it was these dudes, the Niners built the dynasty, 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:14.640 and here it was your opportunity to take it back. 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:18.319 There's something about going and getting it back from those 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:22.320 dudes in their house, your place where you were favorite, 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.360 and it means something. And heck, ma, I'll tell you 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:28.280 where else I saw that was with the Mavericks O six. 0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:33.920 The Mavericks end up losing the finals here in Dallas. 0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:39.199 They celebrated Game six here twenty eleven. Dirk and Miami 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:42.520 win Game six the Dallas say wing gates in Miami, 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.640 and I remember the staffer because after the finals, there's 0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:47.760 a little room you go in everybody take the pictures with. 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:51.560 And one of the Mavericks was, where's that room? 0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:54.600 Oh down, I want don't give me. 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:56.960 That same room in my place that you made me 0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:59.560 find because the league man, where's the room we need 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.080 to tru It's over here, he's where's the room? 0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:06.400 Where's the room? It right now there? 0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:10.160 So yeah, meant it definitely meant something when they won that, 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:15.080 and the same joy that Cowboy fans had to watch it. 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.679 Just a couple of years later, when Barry switches a head. 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:21.360 Coach on a team that that you know should have 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:22.200 should have should have. 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:25.040 Won three do y'all feel like this rivalry is coming 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:27.400 back up like how it was back in the early 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:28.160 nineties eighties. 0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:30.280 I feel like it's coming back to a head. 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:33.400 I don't think it ever went anywhere. Honestly, It's like that. 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:36.840 To me, it's always even though Baltimore and Pittsburgh are 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:38.960 in the same division, it's just two teams that you know, 0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:42.240 have that history. They've always played for a championship, and 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.640 no matter when they hook up, it's gonna be a movie, 0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:47.160 no matter what you know. And they their record could 0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:49.040 be bad, our record could be bad, but we gonna 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:50.920 play to the depth no matter what you know. But 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:53.880 just so happened as you fast forward here to to 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:58.080 Mike McCarthy's regime, and he finally has a trilogy, he 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:00.160 finally has a team in his way. I mean, if 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:03.160 you go back to all the great coaches that have 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:09.080 had to overcome anybody, it seems to me McCarthy for him, 0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:10.800 it's the forty nine Ers. 0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:14.440 Along the way, you've got those teams. I mean, if 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:21.160 you're a Cowboy fan, it's it's three teams. It's the Niners, Steelers, 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:24.520 it's the Packers, and the history of your your your 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:28.880 biggest moments and heartbreaks. It's there and and just having 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:31.280 to get past that one team. For the Raiders, it 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.480 was getting past the Steelers. That was a whole I mean, 0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:37.679 tucking Raider boys, man, and I've had those fun times. 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:38.319 They'll see. 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:40.120 I'm tell you, man, how many how many rings Steelers 0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:42.720 it took from so so to finally get it done 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:44.640 and beat them. You know, there's there's a meaning for 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:47.000 every Franchi. I mean, when you were in Jacksonville, I'm 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:48.439 sure you guys had yours, the. 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:50.760 Titans, the Titans, Yeah, getting over the Titans. Yeah. 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:52.680 I remember in the Ravens for a while it was 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:55.520 the Titan. Eddie Georgia and Ray Lewis used to go 0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:55.800 at it. 0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:57.120 Yeah. 0:11:57.200 --> 0:11:59.360 And so so it's here and it's an easy sell 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:01.200 and we'll all be looking at it. 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:05.480 And I know when I go there, I enjoy seeing 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:07.640 I said Jerry Rice last time I was there, man, 0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:09.080 took a picture with Jersey. 0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:11.640 Yeah, and just seeing that it means something. That's the 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:14.680 biggest bottom line is it means something. And while the 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.920 young ones like Micah talked about hey man, I don't 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:18.000 really know, but then I. 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:22.480 Found out the tickets cost more for this game. Okay, Mike. 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:27.160 Bottom line, they got all they got all the information, 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:29.640 the technology in their hands. How do you not know 0:12:30.440 --> 0:12:32.679 what he said that? There's no way you don't know that, 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:34.360 there's no way, there's no way. 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:37.840 YouTube right right there, just go ahead and bam they'll 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:41.000 show you right prime, you know prime on both sides 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:41.160 of me. 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:43.600 Yeah, it's it's it's. 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:44.959 Something that do you just shake your head at a 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:46.839 little bit, but it means something here. And you'll see 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:48.520 the fans when they go in there. Man, you'll see 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:52.240 the games like this. What I do notice brings out 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:56.600 the old school jerseys. So we'll see a twenty two Smith, 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:59.439 We'll see a young eight, We'll see it eighty Rice 0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:03.040 along with you know run CMC and a Micah. 0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:05.240 But that's that's the interesting that that's when you know 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:07.360 he's big. You see those. 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:10.000 And there's certain teams that travel that I've noticed when 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:12.520 they come here, when the Giants come here, you'll see 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.920 the fifty six. You know, you'll see people pull those 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:18.480 out there, likes I say, last week in Houston, there's 0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:20.160 a you know has some friends who went down there. 0:13:20.240 --> 0:13:23.760 You know, you see the Franco Harris jerseys. Rest in peace, Franco. 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:26.000 You know you're going to see those That's that's when 0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:30.000 you know it's big, hey man, because you know, man, 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:36.760 there's certain jerseys you don't take out Vineo moments that game, right, Okay, 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.800 we're going that game, take it out for this one. 0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:42.240 And this is that kind of game. And I'm excited 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.240 that it's on Sunday. It deserves to be. This is 0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:48.440 what Sunday Night Football superl be about.

This is the measuring 0:14:19.480 --> 0:14:21.320 stick right here, and it seems like these players are 0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:22.320 reacting well to it. 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:23.120 Well. 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:26.760 Plenty of places to watch the game.

Nobody asked. I was like, I know, 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:03.480 we all picked command. I was putting on the bed, 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:04.920 but yeah, I'm on there. 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.840 Take twenty twenty onego new. 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:10.960 Fields is gonna come out.

He did. 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.120 Whoa Magic Johnson so mad he. 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:22.560 Tweeted out there he better get ready. He better heard 0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:24.360 Magic say like criticize somebody. 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:26.440 No, not never. 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:30.480 He's the object of positivity. I have never heard so 0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:34.040 bad Magic got. But but you know what, I'm happy 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:37.680 for Philds because man, they were digging this guy's NFL graves. 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:40.320 He must win, and I don't think that he's by 0:16:40.360 --> 0:16:43.200 any means gotten out of it. But just to see 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:46.280 him play, to see them draw up plays for him 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:49.240 that that are in his wheelhouse, into his strength. 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:50.800 He's that kind of player. Man. 0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:53.960 You cannot make these mobile quarterbacks try to be these 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:57.320 pocket passes and create something that these guys are. I 0:16:57.400 --> 0:16:59.600 know that he's gonna have to deliver passes, he's gonna 0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:02.200 have to do that the quarterback position, but he's a playmaker. 0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.320 Let that kid do what he does well. 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:06.760 Since he criticized the coaches, he's got seven touchdown passes, 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:08.760 seven hundred some yards of passing me. 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:10.280 So it's huge for him. 0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:13.359 Clearly, whatever it was, they listened, they got to a 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:15.680 meeting of the minds, and and here they are. They're 0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:17.680 one and one, should have be should be two and 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:20.879 oh but they went on the road to Washington, a 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:24.240 place I didn't think they'd have shot, and they showed 0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:25.640 out through a forty. 0:17:26.040 --> 0:17:31.040 Do you do you start questioning Ron Rivera now, now, no. 0:17:38.880 --> 0:17:45.520 Riverbot goto got stacks on stacks and losing. So here's 0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:48.639 the wildest thing. He's got two Coaches of the Year awards. 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:50.399 So he's got like three winning seasons and when the 0:17:50.440 --> 0:17:51.640 Coach of the Year award. 0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:53.040 Two of them. But you know, it's like we kind 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:53.880 of like forget. 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:57.399 The other stuff, man, but dude here winning, you know, 0:17:57.440 --> 0:17:59.520 winning Division seventy nine in Carolina. 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:02.280 Mean so no, he needs nothing. 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:03.720 Good but no, come in, come on. 0:18:04.520 --> 0:18:07.400 He got I mean Jack del Rio, dust up del 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:10.560 Rio man. For supposed to be. They were supposed to 0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:12.080 be the truth, man, And that's it. 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:14.119 And I think that's the thing that's so misleading about 0:18:14.160 --> 0:18:16.359 the Commanders is that defensive line. You look at the 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:18.880 guys that they have upfront, you ask yourself, why don't 0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:21.120 they have a dominant They got forty put on them 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:23.520 with a defensive line, and I think anybody would trade 0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:25.680 anything to have those those. 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:26.280 Guys up front. 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:29.080 Man, come on, it's just it's unheard of and they 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.199 should not have forty put on them. But that's how 0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:33.320 I asked that question about Ron Rivera, because he has 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:36.120 escaped plenty up scrutiny. 0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:38.560 New ownership. Heck, man, I don't see. I don't see how. 0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:42.200 I don't I think your new owners especially with the 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.200
