Man, We all out 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:03.079 of ammunition. Man, we done. This is the players lounge 0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:06.080 where you get treated like you are in the locker room, Hayes, 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:09.440 you get bored down. This is this is a part 0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:12.280 of it. You step in here, you step in here, 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:15.680 the bullets will fly your way. You will get stabbed 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:18.320 from the front, got in the back, you will get stabbed. 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:23.120 You got Chris, You got Chris Beam in the in 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.760 the balcony section jumping off the top road and getting 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:33.320 his links into from three. But that so, man, the 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:38.000 Cowboys are going to face the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:40.960 They are a nine point favorite in this football game. 0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:44.200 That's what Vegas is saying. So they're basically in Las 0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:46.520 Vegas saying, hey, we trust the Cowboys that this was 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:49.000 a stinker against the Broncos. They're gonna get right back 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:52.560 and go forward. Wednesday is their next practice here off today. 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:54.720 When you see a line like that, guys, how do 0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:58.839 you feel? It makes me a little nervous, um, just 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:01.720 because you know, the week that we're coming off of 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:03.600 playing against the Broncos. There is a lot of stuff 0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:06.960 that we need to fix, and mainly what we need 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:09.440 to fix this I'm listening to Dan Quinn, you know, 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:11.960 yesterday and his press conference, and it sounds like he's 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:14.400 talking about people not giving a hundred percent effort, the hustling, 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:17.360 not the one hundred. Yeah. So I mean, if you're 0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:19.720 gonna have a nine point spread, you're gonna have to 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:22.040 be clicking on all cylinders and everybody needs to buy 0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:24.200 back in in order for you to cover that. So 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.320 it makes me a little nervous because we came off 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:30.160 a pretty pretty disastrous performance on Sunday. Yeah, it makes 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:33.120 me nervous too, because I didn't like how all run 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:36.279 defense was handled. Now I'm not saying Atlanta got, you know, 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:38.359 one of the premier rushing attacks or one of the 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:41.400 premier offenses in football, but they still can run the 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.200 ball a little bit and they got Matt Ryan out 0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.640 there behind the himp or at the quarterback position, and 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:47.520 he's seemed pretty much everything. The guy's been in the 0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:49.640 league forever, so it's gonna be hard to kind of 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:52.000 get him off his game and disguise things against him. 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:53.960 But we know he can't be got. But if we 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.640 go out there like we did against the Broncos, you know, 0:04:56.880 --> 0:04:59.600 feeling themselves and going out there saying, hi, we can 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:01.960 just flip switch and won't be able to go ahead 0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:04.440 and turn it on. I think that's a bad recipe 0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:06.480 right there. Man. I think this coaching staff think they 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:08.919 need to be on this team throughout the week, just 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:11.160 letting them know, like, man, hey, these guys get paid 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:12.600 too over there. And there was a lot of bulletin 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:14.920 board material, you know, mainly by myself and a couple 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:17.960 other people out there who gave the Broncos bulletin board material. 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:20.000 But for the most part, man, they need to keep 0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:21.960 their heads low and go out here in Atlanta and 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:23.880 let them know that Atlanta does not deserve to be 0:05:23.920 --> 0:05:26.200 on the same field. Stop on their throats from the beginning. 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:28.760 I think what we did last week, once we gave 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:30.640 bront the Broncos juice. We gave him a little bit 0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:32.560 of momentum. They stopped us on fourth down a couple 0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:34.960 of times, a couple of penalties, couple stalled out drives, 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.279 and they felt like, hey, we can hang with these boys. 0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:39.760 But if we go out there and shut it down early, 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.560 jump on this Atlanta team early, I'm sure they'll go 0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:44.200 ahead and close it up and get ready for next 0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:45.960 week and we can get back in the wind. Call them, 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:48.280 but we cannot sleep on this team because, like you said, 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:50.479 the professionals as well, we know that we know that 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:52.479 Atlanta has seen a lot of dan quinn. All right, 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:54.840 Matt Bryan, you say Matt Ryan has seen everything. He's 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.720 seen a lot of dan Quinna. So it's gonna be 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.000 a nice little chess game, I believe on Sunday between 0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:03.200 Matt Ryan offensive coordinator and then my man DQ. You 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:04.520 know what I'm saying, to get us back on track, 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:07.560 what's DQ going, what's he gonna do to provide some 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:10.239 pressure out there, because it's like that d Lion last 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:13.240 art Ard Lion last week. It was like, man, they 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:15.760 got stagnant out there, there was no pressure. Teddy two 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:18.480 Gloves went out there and picked. I'm just telling you, listen, 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.800 we all agree that we were sleep walking over We 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.000 slept walk out there, and like I said, I heard 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:25.480 dan Quinn say out of his own mouth that the 0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:28.719 thing that was a little disappointing was that you weren't 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:32.320 seeing guys hustling to the ball like they usually do 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:35.080 as far as uh. There were a lot too many 0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:38.920 one on one tackles instead of gang tacklers, where if if, 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:42.360 if you have three or four guys running to the ball, 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:44.679 when that first person misses the tackle, then that second 0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:46.240 and third person to be able to clean him up. 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:48.520 And he said he didn't see enough of that in 0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:52.039 the previous game. And to me, that sounds like hustle 0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:54.840 yea and being there and not depending on your teammate 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:56.360 to make the play, but going and make sure you 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:58.680 doing what you're supposed to do just in case he doesn't. 0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:00.760 And it was one clip. There was one clip that 0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:02.320 we saw from that game I sent to y'all in 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.600 the in the group chat we had, and it was 0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:06.679 it was a pretty much a microcosm of what happened 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:09.760 against the Broncos. When number thirty three Williams he ran 0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:12.280 up the gut for about six yards. There was a 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.640 couple of cowboys jumped on him and he ended up 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.880 driving them boards another six yards through the defensive tackle 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:19.440 off of them. You know, get up off from me 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:21.200 out here. I don't know what Kazy was doing because 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:22.840 Casey just came in and just kind of threw a 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:25.600 shoulder and fell to the ground. It just looked super bad. 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:28.400 But Javarte runs for another twenty yards after that, And 0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:30.320 that's what dan Quinn was talking about. There wasn't enough 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.880 people hustling, nothing, enough people finishing out there. And when 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.280 you do that, you're in trouble. You get beat down. 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:42.640 The great brand sham Man in the end of Wet 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:46.560 Wet bandamaham over Man behind us, you know, chopping it up. 0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:48.520 So it had it had to give a salute to 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:54.840 the to the legend right there. The National Football League 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:58.160 was full of teams that just didn't have their best 0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:02.240 effort on Sunday. So looking at the Cowboys and the 0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:04.280 fact that they were right there in the mix with 0:08:04.400 --> 0:08:07.040 other teams, does it give you any pause in the 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:09.360 locker room? Do you do you guys in the room saying, hey, look, 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:11.080 yeah we played bad, but guess what a whole lot 0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:14.920 of league played that yesterday too, I mean to some extent, 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:17.120 But but I think you're professional enough to look in 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:19.200 the mirror and say that the only one that really 0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:21.840 mattered is you not playing up to the standard that 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:24.200 that you've set throughout the first seven games of the season. 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:27.000 And uh, we can look back and say, you know, 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:29.640 LA played this way? Whoever played this way? But the 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:32.439 team in our division that we're trying to catch is 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:37.400 the Arizona Cardinals, and they won all right out the quarterback. 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.679 I mean, they still won. So the team that we're 0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:42.680 trying to chase, an NFC, who were who we want 0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:44.719 to beat out to get that number one spot and 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:47.559 get that first bye week, they won last week. So 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:49.959 we can't afford to be like every other team in 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.400 the league. We need to be on our game every 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:54.120 every time we go out there on the field and 0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:56.079 lead that lead that field with a W. Yeah, And 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.040 you can't. You can't look out of the squads because 0:08:58.040 --> 0:08:59.520 I mean, that's when it comes into the built in 0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:02.319 excuse and you're like, well, everybody messed up, so it's 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:04.240 all right, we'll be back next week, and then you'll 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:05.920 come back next week and perform the same way and 0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:08.600 get beat down. So you can't worry about what everybody 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:10.520 else is doing out there. You gotta focus and they've 0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:12.120 done a good job. But it's so far this season, 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:14.160 you know, taking the game back game play back play 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:16.280 a little cliche, but they've been doing it at a 0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:18.439 pretty good job so far this season. So I don't 0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:19.839 think they can look at any other team. They just 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:21.720 got to focus up and say, hey, we went out there, 0:09:21.760 --> 0:09:24.000 we got beat down. You gotta take accountability, and so 0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:25.839 far this season they've been doing a great job of 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:28.719 keeping each other accountable, whether it's coaches, players, whatever it 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:30.719 may be. They've done a great job of doing that 0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:32.559 so far. So they got to take accountability for it 0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:34.800 and say, hey, let's move forward. You know, we watched 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.600 the tape, got our corrections. Let's move forward and hopefully 0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:40.280 start a new when we go against Atlanta, because like 0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:42.199 I said, we can't sleep on them either, because they cut, 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:43.599 they mess around and come out here and look like 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:51.199 Teddy two gloves for sure, all right. Jerry Jones on 0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:53.240 one or five three the Fan Today had this to 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:56.800 say when asked about offensive tackle Tyrn Smith, if you'll 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.360 play against Atlanta, he says it will get better as 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:01.280 we go along, so I don't look at it as 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:04.719 long term. But he says that you know there's a 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:08.679 chance he might not play. So if Tyron Smith is 0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:11.320 not a left tackle, Danny, what combination do you want 0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:15.839 to change? Get? Didn't getting right? Out right? Just a 0:10:15.920 --> 0:10:25.280 set up getting right? It's just a shop. Yes, neuis 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:28.559 no Bill Bill Bill Parcel, Bill Bill Parcells. Who's to 0:10:28.559 --> 0:10:30.240 have a line where he said, I reserve the right 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:34.360 to change my mind. Change my mind? Ain't jasen? Okay, 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:39.040 um Leo Collins needs to be playing left tackle. Okay, 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:41.560 he needs to be playing left tackle. When gave still 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:45.040 the shot, which you know, against my wishes, shot to 0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:47.520 get out there and play left tackle, and it did 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:49.880 not work out. Put that man in the spot that 0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:52.640 he earned on the right side of your officsive line 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:56.640 at right tackle. Put Leela left and let it roll. Okay, 0:10:57.080 --> 0:11:00.679 At the end of the day, if Leo plays, what 0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:02.839 we do know is at least the right side is 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:04.600 gonna be good. Well, we don't want to go out 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:07.079 there with us having to worry about both sides of 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:10.400 our offensive line, both tackles struggling, and we having to 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:12.839 figure out ways to help them out with chips or 0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:15.160 tight ends coming in motion over and chipping that way. 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:17.079 Our backs chipping on the left side. We don't want 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:19.319 to have to do that. So put my man still 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:21.719 back where he's been performing to his best best of 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:24.559 visibility and let LC see what he can do with 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:26.400 his fifty meal. Yeah. I might have to agree with 0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:28.280 you there, d Mac. I know all one of them 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:30.680 on the left side last last week because I thought, 0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:32.679 you know, he had momentum going. He was our best 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:34.920 tack or our best offensive lineman outside the two Hall 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:36.920 of Famers, So go ahead and move him over there. 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:40.080 But he struggled immensely and he gave up nine pressures. 0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:41.719 I think he gave up two sacks as well, So 0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:44.160 that was a big hurt to his confidence. Like that 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:46.959 stabbed his confidence a little bit. So I'm gonna put 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:49.240 him back on that right side and hopefully he's able 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:51.400 to perform like he did in those previous five or 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:53.280 six games that he was at the right tackle, just 0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:55.079 to get his confidence back up there, because if we 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.199 had a guy going where he thought, you know, I'm 0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.520 playing at this such a high level, I could be 0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:01.559 one of these Pro Bowl tackles as well, and we 0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:03.319 want to keep that momentum going. We don't want to 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:05.280 back to back weeks where he's getting drums on the 0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:06.960 left side. Now, if he goes back to the right 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:09.199 side and gets drummed as well, then I mean that 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:12.080 you had your opportunity and then your loss. It they 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.760 took it from, and they took it from So I'm 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:16.199 gonna put him back on the right side where he 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.719 feels more comfortable. He's a naturally a right handed guy, 0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:20.640 so hopefully he's able to block a little bit better 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:22.600 on that side, handle all the stunts they got going 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:24.640 over there, and get his confidence back up. And then, 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:26.599 like you said, if if Lyell stinks it up on 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:28.880 the left side, we know we're gonna have Terrence or 0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:32.439 Tyron Smith come back there eventually, so we'll know that 0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.959 left side is gonna be down solidified if he's in 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:37.840 the game, which I don't know. I mean, these injuries 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:39.920 are piling up, but at least if he can hold 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:41.840 it down on the right side, we got one side secure, 0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:43.480 and then when Tyron gets back, he can do that 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:45.199 left side, and then we got all Pro Pro Bowl 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:47.920 potential guy as a swing tackle. But I still see 0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:49.320 it as a good problem to have, but we got 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:51.599 to solidify one side and hopefully still is able to 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:54.319 do that. A right nui NOUI listen, I know you 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:56.880 heard Church over here talking about you know, we expect 0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:58.880 Tyron Smith to be back and all this other stuff. 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.480 What we did expect Tyren Smith to be is out. Okay, 0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:04.240 we expect him to be out. So my confidence in 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:08.440 having him for long term and a stretch of eight 0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:12.040 nine games carrying you into the playoffs, it's really low. 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.719 It's really low because we talked to the beginning of 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:18.240 the season about the old two thy ten Tyrnt Smith 0:13:18.320 --> 0:13:21.199 and feeling better than you ever felt. Now we got bonespurs, 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:24.280 we let the we let the ankle sprain, you know, slide, 0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:26.880 because that was one of those things where it just happened. 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:30.280 But now you know, now you getting into having bones, 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:32.920 furs and stuff that that you really can't explain and 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:34.880 really can't put a time table on when you'll be 0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:37.959 back in the game. Yeah, that that is concerning to 0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:39.920 me at the left tackle position. So no, we don't 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:43.840 we don't really expect Tyren Smith to be back anytime soon. 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:46.160 If we want him to be healthy enough to carry 0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:51.880 us through the end of the season and into the playoffs. Danny, 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:53.880 I think you're gonna be really upset to find out 0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:57.000 they're gonna keep still at that left tackles. I just 0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:59.120 believe that's what they're gonna do. That's gonna be upset. 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:07.959 I mean while he running around. Really, because we're talking 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:11.120 about you guys were professional players. We're talking about trying 0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:13.599 to have le Collins do something he hasn't done in 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:16.199 the NFL, play left tackle. Yes, he did it at LSU, 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.439 but now you talk about put him in here in 0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:22.520 the Nashville Football League left tackle. I don't know about that, man, 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:25.880 But I'm confused on the thought process, right because still, 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:29.200 I mean he played. They worked on his training camp, 0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:31.440 training camp, you know what I'm saying, Training camp and 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:33.400 training camp. All right, that's when you get your hand 0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:34.920 you try to work on, get your hand placement right, 0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:36.800 get your foot places right. But you ain't really seeing 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:40.200 them dogs coming around that corner like he saw on Sunday. 0:14:40.440 --> 0:14:42.080 All right, So he's gonna be in the same position 0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:45.000 that Leo Collins was in. All right, let's see if 0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:47.320 he can do it. But he played in the SEC 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:50.960 at left tackle. He got drafted, he played with them 0:14:51.120 --> 0:14:53.640 knowing that he had experienced playing the left tackle position. 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:56.240 Give him a shot. My man still is not like 0:14:56.440 --> 0:14:57.880 it's not fair, But I don't think it's gonna work 0:14:57.880 --> 0:15:00.040 out for him at left tackle should be a he 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:02.360 should stay on that right side, the natural right side. Yeah, 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:03.680 I don't, I don't. I don't think it's gonna work 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:05.160 out for him. And they're gonna continue to put him 0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:07.600 out there and continue to ruin this dude when you 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:10.240 already uh you know, lifted him up from last year 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:12.360 to be a starting right tackle in the league. I 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:17.880 just don't think it makes sense. So let me come 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:20.360 back it this way. We saw Terrence still getting a 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:22.680 little bit of help. What if you put him back 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:24.560 at left tackle and you just say, okay, look, we 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:27.160 know we got to put Dalton Schultz over here, Jeremy 0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:29.360 Sprinkle over here. We just gotta just from the jump, 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:31.720 go ahead and help this guy at the left tackle 0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:34.040 spot and keep LC over at the right. Would that 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:37.480 make you feel any better day? You know? I mean 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.520 as far as protection, it would, But for him as 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:43.200 a player, it would make me feel better. I mean, 0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:45.720 like I said, this guy is becoming a better, better 0:15:45.800 --> 0:15:48.720 player in the league. His progress is now being halted 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:53.920 by injury to Tyrn Smith and Leel not wanting to 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:56.240 play left. For us people not feeling comfortable enough for 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:59.840 him playing level. We don't feel comfortable with still playing left, 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:03.200 but we do feel good with him playing on the 0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:05.800 right side. Like I'm like, if you can, if you 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.560 have the option to show up one side and not 0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:12.000 be uh, you know, having leakage on both, then I'm 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:13.480 going to show up with that one side and see 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:15.480 what see what my fifty million dollar guy has on 0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:17.960 the left. I'm gonna just see because what we've seen 0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:20.320 from Terry still, like you said, nine pressures, two sacks, 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:23.280 and the pressures that were like he wasn't touching the 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:27.360 guy and it's hand like I think it's hand placement, 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:29.920 Like he wasn't able to really to really get the 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:32.320 groove going on that side. So let's let's see what 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:36.520 seventy one has. Let's see try it out. And if 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:39.520 they do end up putting still on that left side, Nui, 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:41.840 they're gonna have to They're gonna have to bring some 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:43.720 protection with them, Like they're gonna have to have either 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:47.320 shoults or Zeke polar chip on the way out, whatever 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:51.040 it may be, because like Daddy said, he struggled. He struggled, 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:52.880 and it wasn't just like he was getting just bull 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:55.160 like hit with a doll. These different moves, cats seem 0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:57.080 to be able to just get around them with the quickness, 0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.000 just hit him with the one one little inside out 0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:01.240 move and then they're around the corner. So it maybe 0:17:01.480 --> 0:17:03.120 you know his foot placement, he's not used to being 0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:05.160 on that left side, move leading with that left side, 0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:07.680 or hand placement with the left hand or anything like that, 0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:09.560 and maybe stronger with the right. But if they do 0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:12.040 put him out there, he's definitely gonna need help, definitely 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:13.920 have to chip on with some with some tight ends, 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:17.080 some running backs, whatever the case may be. Maybe some 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:20.120 screens that help slow that pass rush down. But Kelly Moore, 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.040 get into your bag like you've been in all season. 0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.159 Help these guys out and hopefully we can get his 0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:29.320 offense back back rolling. Okay, let's let's get our first 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:32.680 break in hire. I've got one more question for you, Danny, 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:35.120 about Collins and Barry.
