0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:28.280
<v Speaker 1>with Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. Hello, guys,

0:00:28.360 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Today's Monday, December eleven. Remember Garcia Derek Eagleton decided to

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:37.159
<v Speaker 1>take a vacation right. I don't know where he's at now,

0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>just kidding. He's doing something work related. I suppose stayed

0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:44.600
<v Speaker 1>in New York. Yeah, they too cool for us exactly,

0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:48.479
<v Speaker 1>decided to stay behind over there. How are you guys doing? Awesome?

0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:53.600
<v Speaker 1>Amber a little bit fatigued. Well, yeah, but it's victory Monday.

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 1>But it was a noon game. Wasn't like I feel

0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>great when you got home at like nine thirty, watched

0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:02.960
<v Speaker 1>the end of this Monday night game. Got to bed

0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 1>way earlier than I typically do on a Sunday. Great,

0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:11.240
<v Speaker 1>got a spacious airplane, Yeah we did. That was one

0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:14.400
<v Speaker 1>of the best road trips ever in terms of everything

0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:19.080
<v Speaker 1>that happened from kickoff onward. That's good. Yeah, yeah, nice meal.

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if we should say where, but you

0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:23.640
<v Speaker 1>did get a nice meal Saturday night, one of Drake's

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>favorite restaurants. Like younger generation can put that together, yep. Okay, Well,

0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:31.679
<v Speaker 1>let's start talking about this game. It was a good game.

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Great game, well, not so great. Let's just it was great.

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:38.640
<v Speaker 1>It was a great finish. Yeah, great finish for sure.

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:43.399
<v Speaker 1>And again the Cowboys are still in the run for

0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:47.119
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs, so we can keep talking about that in

0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 1>another week and kind of relax this week a little bit.

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Take it day by day. I decided to go by

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Garrett's motto, taking it day by day. So let's talk

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>about this game. They started off really bad, just kind

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.560
<v Speaker 1>of tying up the game throughout the whole time. Three

0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:04.440
<v Speaker 1>three in ten, ten, and then right in the fourth

0:02:04.520 --> 0:02:09.720
<v Speaker 1>quarter they made magic happen somehow. They started well a

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 1>ton of points. I will disagree a little bit with

0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the first part about it started off really bad. I

0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:17.919
<v Speaker 1>don't think it started off really bad. It just wasn't great.

0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:20.680
<v Speaker 1>They hung in there, and I think that's what I

0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:22.800
<v Speaker 1>was talking about all week long. Just don't let it,

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 1>don't get too far behind on this team, where it's

0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:28.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna be hard to come back, and I thought that

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:30.480
<v Speaker 1>they did a nice job with that. It was a

0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:32.639
<v Speaker 1>close game. It was Cowboys Giants all the way and

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.160
<v Speaker 1>then until the fourth quarter, like you said, magic happened.

0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 1>As we have on the website, you know, lightning Rod

0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:43.400
<v Speaker 1>just just oh, that's the headline we decided on. I

0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 1>like that. Yeah, I like that. He was great, and

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:48.440
<v Speaker 1>I know that a lot of people around here really

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>like him because he's a good guy and he's been

0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Jalen's older brother and now he's Rod Smith. I mean,

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.600
<v Speaker 1>he's just Rod Smith, the playmaker who really saved the

0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys in this game. And it was awesome. It's awesome

0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:02.640
<v Speaker 1>to see. And he's such a versatile back that, I mean,

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 1>he can do a lot of things. He made great plays.

0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.240
<v Speaker 1>We'll talk about this later. He made great plays throughout

0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:08.920
<v Speaker 1>the game, not just in the fourth quarter. He had

0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:12.200
<v Speaker 1>some really big moments there. One hundred and sixty all

0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>purpose yards and two touchdowns. That's awesome, man. I mean

0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>I've been waiting on that since Ezekiel Elia got suspended.

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I didn't expect to see it in the passing game,

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:26.639
<v Speaker 1>but there it was. No but yeah, it's your point. Bad,

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:31.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe not bad, but ugly, like just so ugly. I

0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>thought that's good. Somebody said on Twitter like this might

0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>be the worst football game I've ever watched. This was

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>at like halftime, and I was like, yeah, we're actually

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I said that in the third quarter. I was talking

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>to somebody in the press box and I was like, an, obviously,

0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean it was ten ten at this point, and

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I was like, if they lose this game, if they

0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:51.200
<v Speaker 1>find a way to lose this game, it will certainly

0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 1>go down as one of the two or three worst

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Cowboy games that I've had the misfortune of watching in person.

0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>It would have been right up there with like twenty

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:03.200
<v Speaker 1>fifteen bucks and twenty fifteen bills in terms of just

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>like uninspiring, putrid football. But then about midway through the

0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:11.960
<v Speaker 1>third quarter they just kind of broke the Giants will

0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:15.520
<v Speaker 1>And I mean, like that's the midway through the fourth quarter. Well,

0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:17.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean in terms of in terms of the score, yeah,

0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:20.120
<v Speaker 1>but I mean the defense was playing well, The Giants

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:24.000
<v Speaker 1>weren't driving the ball, you know, the secondary was making

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 1>good plays on the ball. The running game was not great,

0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:29.760
<v Speaker 1>but it was there. And then yeah, I mean that's

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:31.640
<v Speaker 1>I told y'all on the plane last night, you realize

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 1>it was it was seventeen ten with four and a

0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 1>half minutes to play in this game, and then just

0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:39.680
<v Speaker 1>boom boom, just so and based on everything that you

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:43.080
<v Speaker 1>guys watched, what do you think that they actually how

0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.359
<v Speaker 1>were they able to accomplish that in the fourth quarter?

0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:49.040
<v Speaker 1>They got it? It was the defense. Now, the offense

0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.599
<v Speaker 1>made plays, but when you think about the touchdown that

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 1>they had the Giants had one year or touchdown pass

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 1>it made it ten to three. The next nine possessions

0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:03.160
<v Speaker 1>after that, this is how they ended punt punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, interception,

0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:06.480
<v Speaker 1>interception game. It's it. I mean, when it's ten three

0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:08.080
<v Speaker 1>and you're thinking, oh, it's gonna be a long day,

0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:10.840
<v Speaker 1>the defense just tightened up and that you know, Shaun

0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 1>Lee's pretty good. I don't know if anyone gets he's

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>a good player. Shaun Lee's a good football player and

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:20.000
<v Speaker 1>he helps his team. And when he's got Hitchens four, no,

0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:23.040
<v Speaker 1>he's a good football play. Jason three valuable part of

0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:27.640
<v Speaker 1>our rolling thirty two total tackles between the two of

0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 1>them last night or yesterday, Guiants averaged four point four

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:36.000
<v Speaker 1>yards per play. They I mean they ran where'd it go?

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Where did my play? Charco? Did they ran seventy five plays? Giants? Yeah,

0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 1>it's a it's a truckload. Like that implies that you

0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:46.000
<v Speaker 1>got run off the field. Yeah, I think good, good

0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 1>sensor they got that. That would imply that the Cowboys

0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:51.599
<v Speaker 1>got run off the field. But Eli Manning average four

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:54.040
<v Speaker 1>point nine yards per tempt. The Giants average like three

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>point two yards per carry. Like the defense was great.

0:05:57.120 --> 0:05:59.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, I thought they'd get more sacks.

0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I thought they'd take more advantage of that offensive line.

0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 1>But you certainly can't complain about ten points. And yeah,

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:09.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean the Giants didn't have a meaningful possession after halftime.

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:12.960
<v Speaker 1>And everybody know before you just you know, throwing stuff

0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.160
<v Speaker 1>at the internet. I mean, I've been at the website

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 1>about us. I mean, we get the Giants are not

0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:19.880
<v Speaker 1>very good. They're not a good team. That they're banged up,

0:06:19.920 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 1>they got no players out there, they have no running game.

0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:25.719
<v Speaker 1>But that's what happens. I mean, you know, it was

0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:27.440
<v Speaker 1>a it was a tight game for a while and

0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:30.599
<v Speaker 1>then just talent kind of just rises to the top.

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.400
<v Speaker 1>And that's what happened. I guess that's why I kind

0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:35.839
<v Speaker 1>of called it a really bad game. It wasn't because

0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:38.560
<v Speaker 1>they were tying kind of a that was just slow. Yeah,

0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 1>luckily would be a better description. The only thing that

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.200
<v Speaker 1>was pretty about it for me. And you guys don't

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:46.040
<v Speaker 1>know this because you weren't alive, but when you watch

0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:49.440
<v Speaker 1>the Dallas Cowboys in the eighties, every year they would

0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:51.080
<v Speaker 1>go to the Giants and they'd go to a game

0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 1>like that. We would always be like cloudy and I'm

0:06:53.600 --> 0:06:55.640
<v Speaker 1>cold and rainy, and they're wearing their blues and the

0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Giants looked just like that, and they're whites, and that

0:06:58.080 --> 0:06:59.840
<v Speaker 1>was the game and it was always a tough one

0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 1>that couldn't stop Lawrence Taylor. I grew up watching that

0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:07.080
<v Speaker 1>look right there, except not with a favorable outcome. Not always.

0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes they would win, but but not a lot of times.

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:11.480
<v Speaker 1>And I mean, so that was cool to see. It

0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.320
<v Speaker 1>was kind of like taking it back a little bit.

0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:18.080
<v Speaker 1>That then the Giants logo instead of the ny It

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 1>made me feel like it made me think of being

0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 1>a little kid. I love it. I mean, it was

0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:24.320
<v Speaker 1>it was awesome. So let's talk out. There was no

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Lawrence Taylor to block him. No, but but if they,

0:07:28.360 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 1>if he was over there, I'm not sure mister Lyle

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>Collins wouldn't been able to block him. This guy right

0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:37.680
<v Speaker 1>here is like he's taking it to a new level.

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he he. I hope people realize what he's

0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 1>not doing and then what he's doing, and what he's

0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.320
<v Speaker 1>not doing is practicing, and what he's doing is playing

0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:49.000
<v Speaker 1>his ass off on Sunday hurt. He's got to be

0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 1>hurt and banged up. This guy, to me might be

0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:55.120
<v Speaker 1>playing at a pro Bowl level. I mean, I mean,

0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.200
<v Speaker 1>when you think about it, he's snug. He snuck in

0:07:57.240 --> 0:08:00.400
<v Speaker 1>his rookie year as an alternate as a guard. Wouldn't

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.280
<v Speaker 1>be surprised if he's going to get some looks here.

0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>He's playing really well. That would be interesting. And he

0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, especially since he's not practicing. I think he's

0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:09.400
<v Speaker 1>been great. I think I don't know if it was

0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:12.040
<v Speaker 1>his mistake or a miscommunication with the tight end, but

0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:15.760
<v Speaker 1>I think was it the play that Dak made the

0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Houdini escape. Did Lyle let that guy go? I don't,

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, oh, when he got it out to Alfred Morris, Yeah,

0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:23.880
<v Speaker 1>then I don't remember if that Russot died on the

0:08:23.960 --> 0:08:26.720
<v Speaker 1>left or right side. But that was a big play.

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I know it was right dad, he made a Yeah

0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:35.240
<v Speaker 1>he was great, but no, you're right Lyle Collins two

0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:38.040
<v Speaker 1>weeks in a row, I think he's been phenomenal. Yeah,

0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:41.040
<v Speaker 1>so let's talk of all Prescott, a guy we've been

0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:45.000
<v Speaker 1>talking about week after week, and his passing game and

0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:48.680
<v Speaker 1>the connection with the receivers. Yeah. I wrote this on

0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Twitter and a lot of people just pretty much killing

0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:56.319
<v Speaker 1>me for it, like, yeah, exactly. I basically said his

0:08:56.440 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>supporting cast was good, and when his supporting cast is good,

0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.720
<v Speaker 1>it allows Dak to be great. Dak was great again

0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:05.520
<v Speaker 1>because he finally got some help. That that's it helped

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:07.840
<v Speaker 1>me help you. That's what I wrote about. That's what

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:11.240
<v Speaker 1>they did, you know, Dak. I mean Dez was making

0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:13.120
<v Speaker 1>some plays that you know, caught the ball and said

0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:15.880
<v Speaker 1>get off me. Dez Bryant made a few. I mean,

0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:18.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean Cole Beasley made a nice play there. These

0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:20.600
<v Speaker 1>guys helped him out. And when you can help out Dak,

0:09:20.800 --> 0:09:23.240
<v Speaker 1>he can be really good. But he wasn't getting any help.

0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:25.760
<v Speaker 1>He hasn't gotten much help to last three or four games,

0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:27.920
<v Speaker 1>and he got some today. And I think yesterday he

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:31.079
<v Speaker 1>saw the difference. Yeah, I agree, And the funny thing

0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:33.840
<v Speaker 1>for me is, okay, there's no denying it. Like what

0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:36.240
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and eighty five of his three hundred and

0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:40.360
<v Speaker 1>thirty yards came on recept or receiving yards after the catch.

0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:43.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he has a twelve yards slant turned into

0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:45.040
<v Speaker 1>a fifty yard touchdown by Dez Bryant. He has a

0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>six yard curl turned into a fifty four yard game

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:50.800
<v Speaker 1>by Cole Beasley, and then the inside slant, which was

0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:53.319
<v Speaker 1>probably an eight yard throw if I had to guess,

0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:57.440
<v Speaker 1>goes eighty one yards, and like, I get it, his

0:09:57.559 --> 0:09:59.280
<v Speaker 1>receivers did a lot of that work. But like, wow,

0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 1>why I'm not dog and deck for that? Like, oh no, yeah,

0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:04.520
<v Speaker 1>but but I feel like like some you know, people

0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:06.959
<v Speaker 1>are quick to like dismiss the accomplishment of throwing for

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 1>three hundred yards because a lot of it was you know,

0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:11.640
<v Speaker 1>after the cat. Did you see what he did with

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:14.280
<v Speaker 1>the Rod Smith? I mean he moved rod Smith out

0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 1>there on the eighty one yard touchdown. He moved him

0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:20.440
<v Speaker 1>out into the into the slot and then that's when

0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:22.760
<v Speaker 1>he forced the linebackers to cover him. And that's when

0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 1>it was like, all right, and he faked it off.

0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:26.720
<v Speaker 1>He went left left. He knew he was gonna break free,

0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:29.120
<v Speaker 1>so he made that play. And then on the Beasley play,

0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:31.079
<v Speaker 1>which rod Smith had a great block. That's one of

0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:33.160
<v Speaker 1>rod Smith's best plays of the game. Had a great block.

0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:36.439
<v Speaker 1>But again they were blitzing. He finds the guy and

0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>then he let those guys do the work. So it's

0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:40.199
<v Speaker 1>a combination of both. I mean, he had a good

0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:42.480
<v Speaker 1>awareness to give the ball out there to those guys

0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:44.600
<v Speaker 1>to let him go make play. Of course, Yeah, it's

0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 1>obviously a combination of both. And then the other thing

0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I would leave out is the I don't know, at

0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:53.560
<v Speaker 1>least at least thirty to fifty yards that were dropped

0:10:53.640 --> 0:10:56.920
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the game, you know, and they weren't helping

0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.400
<v Speaker 1>him early. It is it is nice to see a

0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:04.000
<v Speaker 1>game where Dak Prescott's like options gave him a lot

0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:05.880
<v Speaker 1>of help. And I mean, whatever, yeah, a lot of

0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:07.600
<v Speaker 1>that was run after the catch. I really don't care.

0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:09.400
<v Speaker 1>I thought he was great. He was a great decision maker.

0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:12.560
<v Speaker 1>He completed sixty seven percent. Like I said, he escaped

0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:16.480
<v Speaker 1>a certain sack to get the ball off. Um. I

0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:19.640
<v Speaker 1>thought he was phenomenal and you know, and like, I

0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:24.079
<v Speaker 1>guess I get people's point that it's it's not it's

0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:26.000
<v Speaker 1>not a hollow three hundred and three two yards, you know,

0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:28.000
<v Speaker 1>but it's you know, you know what I'm trying to say,

0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:30.079
<v Speaker 1>like it's, um, what's the word I'm looking for here?

0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:32.640
<v Speaker 1>Like it maybe it's a little inflated from what it

0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 1>actually was, but that doesn't that that doesn't take away

0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.000
<v Speaker 1>from how well I thought he played in terms of

0:11:38.000 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 1>his decision making. And well, I'm sure if Derek was here,

0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:45.199
<v Speaker 1>he would say that we were saying earlier in the

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:48.560
<v Speaker 1>day that it's not earlier Oh yeah, exactly. It wasn't

0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:52.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a great passing day. No, he came, he

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:54.560
<v Speaker 1>came at me about that on the sideline before the

0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:56.040
<v Speaker 1>game was over. He's like, so, it's not gonna be

0:11:56.040 --> 0:11:58.040
<v Speaker 1>a good day for passing and I was like, shut up,

0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:02.680
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't serious. It was and you know what, and

0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 1>it really wasn't more than that. It was for the receivers.

0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:08.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they had a hard time catching the ball,

0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:12.319
<v Speaker 1>and I mean when Beasley's dropping passes, you know, it's

0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:15.680
<v Speaker 1>not it's gonna be you know, that kind of day,

0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:18.160
<v Speaker 1>And I thought the one that Dez dropped, that would

0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:20.280
<v Speaker 1>have been either a touchdown or right down there by

0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:22.199
<v Speaker 1>the one or two yard line. I mean, that's a

0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:25.840
<v Speaker 1>play makes a thousand times, and he just dropped it.

0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:28.719
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't the best pass for Dak. I mean

0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:31.000
<v Speaker 1>he Dak could have thrown it out there a little

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.480
<v Speaker 1>bit more and it would just been probably a walk

0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:37.120
<v Speaker 1>in touchdown. But you know, conditions like that, you're supposed

0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:38.960
<v Speaker 1>to get it up there and let your player go

0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:41.040
<v Speaker 1>make the play. And he didn't catch the ball. I

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.199
<v Speaker 1>know he needs to catch it, and he was so

0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:44.800
<v Speaker 1>upset on the sideline. I don't know if you were

0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:47.840
<v Speaker 1>watching him on the side he was. There was a

0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 1>good thing. There was no Mica over there for him,

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.680
<v Speaker 1>and but everybody kept consoling him, saying, all right, he'll

0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:56.640
<v Speaker 1>be fine, you'll be fining later. That that same quarter

0:12:56.880 --> 0:12:59.640
<v Speaker 1>is when he made that play and Dak and Dak

0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:01.680
<v Speaker 1>had a great response to both, you know, the drop

0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:03.679
<v Speaker 1>by Daz and the one by Beasley. He was like,

0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.320
<v Speaker 1>and you know, to listeners points they've been making it

0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:08.120
<v Speaker 1>all year. He's like, he told him, he said, he

0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:10.280
<v Speaker 1>told him both like I've missed y'all more times than

0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:12.320
<v Speaker 1>I can count this year. So you know, I'm not

0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:14.520
<v Speaker 1>going to kill you over a drop pass. He actually

0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:17.120
<v Speaker 1>he said later too, m kind of walking off from that,

0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:19.120
<v Speaker 1>He's like, I don't want to hear that, Like I don't,

0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I don't need my receiver to apologize to me. Yeah,

0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:25.000
<v Speaker 1>he's like, I don't really want to think about talk

0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.240
<v Speaker 1>about it, Like, yeah, I know you want to catch

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:30.559
<v Speaker 1>the ball. Let's go, let's let's make another play. Yeah. Well,

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.560
<v Speaker 1>it was good to definitely see them bouncing back in

0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:36.040
<v Speaker 1>the second half, which usually kind of turns out to

0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:40.319
<v Speaker 1>be the opponent's victory in those specific scenarios. I think

0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 1>in the press box you said, oh, they're gonna score

0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.520
<v Speaker 1>in the third quarter. Oh yeah. The mood, the mood

0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:48.560
<v Speaker 1>in the press box from the beginning until about midway

0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:50.720
<v Speaker 1>through the third quarter was a it was a down

0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:55.040
<v Speaker 1>one the press box there. I mean, you're so high

0:13:55.160 --> 0:13:57.080
<v Speaker 1>up there, it feels like there's a cloud that comes

0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:59.880
<v Speaker 1>underneath you. He's sure to watch the game, but he's

0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:03.240
<v Speaker 1>just feel so distant from the game, like you don't

0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.400
<v Speaker 1>you don't even hear I mean it's so quiet in there.

0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:07.200
<v Speaker 1>And then like, is there really a game for really

0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:10.520
<v Speaker 1>eighty thousand people out there like yelling, and so it's

0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:12.320
<v Speaker 1>just it's just one of those games where it's just

0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:14.880
<v Speaker 1>like That's my biggest beef with the NFL in general

0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:16.640
<v Speaker 1>is like, you know, I grew up a huge college

0:14:16.679 --> 0:14:20.600
<v Speaker 1>football fan, and U NFL press boxes just feel so

0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:23.000
<v Speaker 1>removed from the game. Like I wish, I wish the

0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:24.880
<v Speaker 1>press boxes were open, like I would. I know a

0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:26.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of people would hate that, but like I like

0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:29.840
<v Speaker 1>hearing the noise and being part of the environment. That's

0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:31.880
<v Speaker 1>one of my least favorite press boxes because it feels

0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 1>like you're watching the game on Do you think the

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:36.200
<v Speaker 1>people in Buffalo think that too, No, they're probably writers.

0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:38.760
<v Speaker 1>They're probably pretty pumped about. That's what I couldn't believe

0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:41.560
<v Speaker 1>is that, like, this is the same state. Now. I

0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:43.880
<v Speaker 1>know it's the there's a lot of there's a lot

0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:46.680
<v Speaker 1>of hours in between, but it's the same state of

0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo and then the Giants. I'm looking up and it's

0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:51.440
<v Speaker 1>a nice day. I mean it's it's a little cold,

0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.720
<v Speaker 1>but not that bad. It was gorgeous in East Rutherford.

0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:57.800
<v Speaker 1>Then all what happened in Buffalo. Now Here are some

0:14:57.880 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 1>question from Twitter about the DeMarcus Lawrence when he was

0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:05.440
<v Speaker 1>trying to, you know, tell the ref to make that call. Dave.

0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:07.920
<v Speaker 1>I know you tweeted out, oh, we want to talk

0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 1>about that, let's go ahead and kind of discuss that.

0:15:10.440 --> 0:15:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna play that drop. No, No, we probably shouldn't it. Yeah,

0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:16.680
<v Speaker 1>well again, thanks for pointing that out. You got it

0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Amber because you have a beep. Yeah, I've got to bleed. Okay,

0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 1>all right, let's yeah, let's just do that. He's good.

0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I gotta pull it up. Okay, Sorry, Well, I mean,

0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:28.680
<v Speaker 1>was there a blatant I'm missing something here? Was there

0:15:28.720 --> 0:15:31.600
<v Speaker 1>like a blatant play or was this just overall? I

0:15:31.720 --> 0:15:33.880
<v Speaker 1>know there was at least one where he got a

0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:36.560
<v Speaker 1>bear hug. I saw it happen. There was at least

0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:38.480
<v Speaker 1>one where there was a pretty obvious hold. I don't

0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:41.200
<v Speaker 1>know if it was, you know, happening throughout the game,

0:15:41.240 --> 0:15:43.200
<v Speaker 1>but I think to his point, it's something he's been

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.200
<v Speaker 1>dealing with for five or six weeks now, which yeah,

0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:49.320
<v Speaker 1>so you know, it's it's all like you can tell

0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:51.040
<v Speaker 1>when a player has something he wants to talk about,

0:15:51.040 --> 0:15:53.200
<v Speaker 1>because it's like they win the game and he's just like,

0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:56.560
<v Speaker 1>look the refs aren't doing their job. I haven't seen

0:15:56.560 --> 0:16:00.400
<v Speaker 1>a whole year. I go here, we go the suse

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:04.240
<v Speaker 1>you guys have the second half. Uh, you know, the

0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:07.040
<v Speaker 1>team just came out and did our job. That's the

0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:10.880
<v Speaker 1>main thing about it. Win't getting no holding calls. Um,

0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:13.040
<v Speaker 1>the reps out there for nothing. So we just you know,

0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 1>came out and did our job. Did you feel like

0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:18.840
<v Speaker 1>you were over in spite that I ain't see a

0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:22.040
<v Speaker 1>holding call in the last five games. And it's ridiculous,

0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:25.080
<v Speaker 1>um that the reps are out here just looking at me,

0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:28.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, getting tackled by offensive linement, Like come on,

0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:30.400
<v Speaker 1>if you're gonna be out there, you know, do your

0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:33.440
<v Speaker 1>job then. And that's the main thing, um. And I

0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:37.040
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's unfair. Um. I feel like, you know,

0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:39.120
<v Speaker 1>I got a family to come home too. So if

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:41.680
<v Speaker 1>you're trying to protect quarterbacks, you know you gotta protect

0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:43.960
<v Speaker 1>me too. And you if you're gonna do it, you gotta,

0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, do it on both sides. And if you're

0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:47.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna sit here and calls on bs on my old line,

0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:53.320
<v Speaker 1>you gotta call it on their online too. Queen Lane, period, Bro,

0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:55.520
<v Speaker 1>you don't hear nothing. When the last time you heard

0:16:55.560 --> 0:17:02.800
<v Speaker 1>holding offense. Yeah, I mean, you know it's a great

0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:05.479
<v Speaker 1>team when um, we didn't play like you know, supposed

0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:07.200
<v Speaker 1>to play the first half. But you know we came

0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:10.560
<v Speaker 1>out on top and that's the main thing. Else and

0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:13.480
<v Speaker 1>that's all I gotta say. There, it is there, It

0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:16.600
<v Speaker 1>is all right, guys. Let's take a quick break and

<v Speaker 1>called Doctor Pepper and the Dallas Cowboys go way back.

0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:27.919
<v Speaker 1>They belonged together like Texas and football, Silver and Blue

0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:32.200
<v Speaker 1>shotgun formations and Hail Mary's. Having a Cowboys football party

0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:36.520
<v Speaker 1>without doctor Pepper is like having Thanksgiving without the Cowboys. Basically,

0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:40.480
<v Speaker 1>we wouldn't recommend it. So next time you have a tailgate, homegate,

0:19:35.760 --> 0:19:38.600
<v Speaker 1>We just got done listening to the Marcus Lawrence comments

0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:42.879
<v Speaker 1>after the game. Thoughts on his response. Yeah, that's I

0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:45.439
<v Speaker 1>was just telling Nick off the air like that. That

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:48.160
<v Speaker 1>had nothing to do with anything that happened in that game.

0:19:48.280 --> 0:19:51.040
<v Speaker 1>That's just like a month's worth of frustration at I mean,

0:19:51.400 --> 0:19:53.120
<v Speaker 1>it's been a's been a talking point for a few

0:19:53.160 --> 0:19:56.280
<v Speaker 1>weeks now, is It certainly doesn't seem like the Cowboys

0:19:56.320 --> 0:19:58.760
<v Speaker 1>are getting a proportionate amount of holding calls on their

0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:02.879
<v Speaker 1>defensive line. Plenty of holding calls across the season, whether

0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:06.120
<v Speaker 1>it's Jason Witt and Tyrn Smith, even Travis Frederick I mean,

0:20:06.280 --> 0:20:10.199
<v Speaker 1>their offensive line has been very closely critiqued, and I

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:13.640
<v Speaker 1>think I think espec hey d Law, you know, he's

0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:17.160
<v Speaker 1>he's the NFL sacks leader. He's playing for a contract

0:20:17.280 --> 0:20:19.880
<v Speaker 1>or likely a franchise, tag, Pro Bowl, all that type

0:20:19.920 --> 0:20:22.960
<v Speaker 1>of stuff, Like he wants sacks for a lot of reasons,

0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:24.520
<v Speaker 1>not just to help the team win, but for his

0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:27.880
<v Speaker 1>own bottom line too. And so I think he had

0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.400
<v Speaker 1>enough of it and decided it's worth getting fined, if

0:20:30.400 --> 0:20:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I can say my piece, because he didn't back down.

0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:35.439
<v Speaker 1>He went on Twitter. You know, I'm sitting there like,

0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:37.520
<v Speaker 1>do I really want to tweet this out? Like, you know,

0:20:37.560 --> 0:20:39.800
<v Speaker 1>he's probably gonna get fine. But and then I'm like,

0:20:39.840 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 1>he said it in front of fifty reporters, and then

0:20:41.840 --> 0:20:44.080
<v Speaker 1>he went on Twitter and was like sorry, I'm not sorry,

0:20:44.200 --> 0:20:47.520
<v Speaker 1>like basically doubled down on it. And those questions weren't

0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:48.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, they were what do you think about the

0:20:49.000 --> 0:20:51.240
<v Speaker 1>lack of holding? No, that's what? Yeah, about your defense?

0:20:51.280 --> 0:20:52.800
<v Speaker 1>And he was like, well I didn't play that great,

0:20:52.920 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, And then it was just like the ref

0:20:54.640 --> 0:20:56.640
<v Speaker 1>the ref the refs, and he talked about that family

0:20:56.680 --> 0:20:58.360
<v Speaker 1>that he has to go home too. Well, he took

0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:01.000
<v Speaker 1>some money out of that the whole plocket there for

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:03.480
<v Speaker 1>getting fined, He's gonna get a pretty hefty fine, I

0:21:03.480 --> 0:21:05.560
<v Speaker 1>would imagine. Yeah. But if you're if you feel like

0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:08.359
<v Speaker 1>you're being treated unfairly, you need to speak up. But

0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I think f the refs is a little bit too

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:12.920
<v Speaker 1>too far there. I mean you can, but it comes again.

0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:15.760
<v Speaker 1>A football player, man, you know you're upset. You I

0:21:15.800 --> 0:21:20.200
<v Speaker 1>get it, But I mean you're right. This isn't about

0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:21.879
<v Speaker 1>one game. This was about a bunch of games. This

0:21:21.920 --> 0:21:24.679
<v Speaker 1>is about seeing that the Giants offensive line and thinking

0:21:24.920 --> 0:21:27.960
<v Speaker 1>I should be getting sacks and I didn't. But my

0:21:28.080 --> 0:21:30.840
<v Speaker 1>biggest thing about referees, and it could be in any sport,

0:21:31.160 --> 0:21:33.400
<v Speaker 1>just whether it be the strike zone the same, whether

0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:35.760
<v Speaker 1>it be you're calling fouls on basketball the same, whether

0:21:35.760 --> 0:21:39.000
<v Speaker 1>you calling just just call it both ways. If that's

0:21:39.040 --> 0:21:41.399
<v Speaker 1>how you're gonna call it, call it that way. If

0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:42.920
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to call out a PI, then don't

0:21:42.920 --> 0:21:45.520
<v Speaker 1>call it. Jason Witten was flagged for a holding call,

0:21:45.560 --> 0:21:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and I think JPP which looked like it was a

0:21:47.760 --> 0:21:49.719
<v Speaker 1>pretty good call. It was a good call and it

0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:52.680
<v Speaker 1>affected the play. I don't remember any other holding calls

0:21:52.720 --> 0:21:54.720
<v Speaker 1>by the Cowboys, and I know the Giants did get

0:21:54.720 --> 0:21:58.280
<v Speaker 1>called for one holding, so you know, I just don't

0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:01.880
<v Speaker 1>think that particular day was it was that bad. Yeah,

0:22:01.880 --> 0:22:04.280
<v Speaker 1>there were some plays that you could do it every

0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:08.359
<v Speaker 1>time every play, and I I kind of love it

0:22:08.400 --> 0:22:10.879
<v Speaker 1>to be honest first because it will not your money.

0:22:10.920 --> 0:22:13.760
<v Speaker 1>But well, I mean, maybe they'll take a collection up.

0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, maybe Tyrone Crawford to help him foot the bill.

0:22:16.600 --> 0:22:20.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but uh, you know, it's a this

0:22:20.320 --> 0:22:22.440
<v Speaker 1>is something we've been talking about for at least three,

0:22:22.520 --> 0:22:25.480
<v Speaker 1>if not like six weeks, and yeah, like I said,

0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I think he was just tired of hearing about it,

0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:30.520
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, like this game probably wasn't the best example,

0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:33.680
<v Speaker 1>but whatever. I like, in a weird way, it's kind

0:22:33.680 --> 0:22:35.879
<v Speaker 1>of an immature thing to do, but it's also like

0:22:35.920 --> 0:22:38.359
<v Speaker 1>a leader type thing to do. He's like whatever, Like

0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:40.320
<v Speaker 1>people want to talk to me because I'm the leading

0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:42.520
<v Speaker 1>sack guy. I'm gonna stand up and say something. That's

0:22:42.640 --> 0:22:45.720
<v Speaker 1>that's fine, I get to I really don't have a

0:22:45.760 --> 0:22:47.960
<v Speaker 1>problem with it. I was just saying, in this particular game,

0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:51.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it was no that warranted. But you

0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:53.480
<v Speaker 1>said it best. This isn't about one game. This is

0:22:53.520 --> 0:22:56.080
<v Speaker 1>a frustration, and he's got fourteen and a half sacks,

0:22:56.080 --> 0:22:58.400
<v Speaker 1>and he and he knows that if he gets to twenty,

0:22:58.760 --> 0:23:02.120
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty awesome. And he also knows that he can

0:23:02.160 --> 0:23:04.640
<v Speaker 1>pay whatever fine he wants with the money that's coming

0:23:04.720 --> 0:23:06.600
<v Speaker 1>his way in like three more months, on way or

0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:10.000
<v Speaker 1>the other. So I probably just knew that this would

0:23:10.040 --> 0:23:12.840
<v Speaker 1>be an offensive line that he could definitely get a

0:23:12.960 --> 0:23:16.199
<v Speaker 1>lot of sap. I said he'd get three yesterday. But

0:23:16.640 --> 0:23:20.520
<v Speaker 1>he also has to remember this f the refs is

0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:23.879
<v Speaker 1>not the best thing you want going into Oakland or

0:23:23.920 --> 0:23:27.719
<v Speaker 1>going into any game. When it's like, Okay, we'll see,

0:23:28.040 --> 0:23:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I mean, he may not get a call

0:23:30.600 --> 0:23:32.840
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the season. May I just don't. I

0:23:32.880 --> 0:23:34.480
<v Speaker 1>just don't know if that was the best way to

0:23:34.520 --> 0:23:37.560
<v Speaker 1>do it. I know it's frustrated, but we'll see if

0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:39.720
<v Speaker 1>he gets how many calls he gets from You ever

0:23:39.760 --> 0:23:43.560
<v Speaker 1>get angry and just say things that you don't necessarily want, Yeah,

0:23:43.560 --> 0:23:46.199
<v Speaker 1>well we know you do. Yeah yeah I do. And

0:23:46.280 --> 0:23:48.760
<v Speaker 1>sometimes you have to pay for it afterwards. Okay, well,

0:23:48.880 --> 0:23:51.679
<v Speaker 1>don't worry about someone else's money. Let him worry about

0:23:51.800 --> 0:23:55.440
<v Speaker 1>talking about the money so much. But you mentioned it earlier. Okay,

0:23:55.480 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 1>the money, that's his money. That's fine. We'll see what

0:23:58.119 --> 0:24:01.200
<v Speaker 1>happens when he gets horse caller down to the ground

0:24:01.240 --> 0:24:03.600
<v Speaker 1>and there's no call and he's looking up at the

0:24:03.600 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 1>reff and he's you know, the reff comes back and says,

0:24:07.400 --> 0:24:11.200
<v Speaker 1>if hoo, no there. I mean, there's no doubt, there's

0:24:11.240 --> 0:24:13.359
<v Speaker 1>no doubt whatsoever that there was a better way of

0:24:13.400 --> 0:24:16.720
<v Speaker 1>handling it. But like, that's that's him, that's DeMarcus man,

0:24:16.840 --> 0:24:21.200
<v Speaker 1>He's he is a Jason Garrett has done such a job.

0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:23.960
<v Speaker 1>It's such a great job of making the Cowboys locker

0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:26.320
<v Speaker 1>room as boring as possible. Like I give him a

0:24:26.320 --> 0:24:29.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of credit for that. These guys, well, I mean,

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I knew he wasn't going to give me a good answer,

0:24:32.240 --> 0:24:34.760
<v Speaker 1>but I asked Dak if he got any satisfaction out

0:24:34.800 --> 0:24:36.960
<v Speaker 1>of sweeping the Giant since they swept him last year,

0:24:36.960 --> 0:24:40.760
<v Speaker 1>and like his answer was so predictably boring because he's

0:24:40.760 --> 0:24:43.080
<v Speaker 1>a smart guy, and it's so in a room full

0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:45.480
<v Speaker 1>of people that know how to give smart, boring answers.

0:24:45.520 --> 0:24:49.200
<v Speaker 1>I cherish DeMarcus Lawrence because he's gonna tell you exactly

0:24:49.200 --> 0:24:51.639
<v Speaker 1>what he thinks about whatever you're asking him about I

0:24:51.680 --> 0:24:58.480
<v Speaker 1>love him. Okay, well, DeMarcus, he's just a fun guy.

0:24:59.160 --> 0:25:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, he the fun guy in the locker room.

0:25:01.560 --> 0:25:03.679
<v Speaker 1>Not everyone's like that in there, so it makes our

0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:06.840
<v Speaker 1>work a little more enjoyable. I agree. All right, let's

0:25:06.880 --> 0:25:09.240
<v Speaker 1>talk about Dan Bailey and correct me if I'm wrong.

0:25:09.320 --> 0:25:12.240
<v Speaker 1>But this was the first time to ever miss an

0:25:12.280 --> 0:25:16.359
<v Speaker 1>extra point yep, he missed two field goals. Talk to

0:25:16.400 --> 0:25:18.359
<v Speaker 1>me about his performance. I mean, are you guys feeling

0:25:18.359 --> 0:25:20.719
<v Speaker 1>to talk around this whole thing? Is? Is he healthy

0:25:21.000 --> 0:25:24.199
<v Speaker 1>enough to have been back? I don't. I don't know

0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:27.080
<v Speaker 1>who else might have talked to him yesterday. I didn't

0:25:27.119 --> 0:25:29.040
<v Speaker 1>see a lot. And if they did, I hope. I'm

0:25:29.040 --> 0:25:31.840
<v Speaker 1>talking about people on Twitter, assuming that I know. I know,

0:25:31.880 --> 0:25:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about reporters that went up to him. I

0:25:34.760 --> 0:25:36.760
<v Speaker 1>don't know if anyone else did, and if they did,

0:25:36.800 --> 0:25:38.680
<v Speaker 1>I hope it wasn't as awkward as what I did.

0:25:40.000 --> 0:25:43.400
<v Speaker 1>And I really liked Dan a lot, And I asked him, Yeah,

0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:45.280
<v Speaker 1>I went to ask him if I could talk to

0:25:45.359 --> 0:25:47.040
<v Speaker 1>him a little bit. He kind of was looking at

0:25:47.080 --> 0:25:49.959
<v Speaker 1>me like why, But that's the way it goes. As

0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:53.480
<v Speaker 1>I tried to explain to him that five field goals

0:25:54.200 --> 0:25:57.840
<v Speaker 1>you know too, missus misssect point doesn't matter. So I

0:25:57.880 --> 0:25:59.560
<v Speaker 1>talked to him a little bit and his answer was

0:25:59.600 --> 0:26:01.680
<v Speaker 1>the exact same. He said, it was a frustrating day.

0:26:01.760 --> 0:26:03.520
<v Speaker 1>And I asked about the wind elements and of that,

0:26:03.560 --> 0:26:05.760
<v Speaker 1>and he said it was a frustrating day. I asked

0:26:05.880 --> 0:26:09.560
<v Speaker 1>about the miss extra point. It was the was the

0:26:09.960 --> 0:26:12.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was everything right, the snap hold, everything

0:26:12.600 --> 0:26:14.439
<v Speaker 1>on that. He said, it was a frustrating day. And

0:26:14.440 --> 0:26:16.359
<v Speaker 1>then I asked him, I said, well, everyone's gonna or

0:26:16.480 --> 0:26:18.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of wondering about your health. This is your second

0:26:18.720 --> 0:26:21.399
<v Speaker 1>game back. Are you completely healthy? He said, it was

0:26:21.400 --> 0:26:25.639
<v Speaker 1>a frustrating day. So am I is this? I thought it?

0:26:26.080 --> 0:26:27.919
<v Speaker 1>Didn't he come back on Thanksgiving? I thought this was

0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:31.679
<v Speaker 1>his third game back, third game bag which so I

0:26:31.720 --> 0:26:33.920
<v Speaker 1>have a hard time believing he's not healthy, Like he's

0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:37.200
<v Speaker 1>looked fine up until this point. His his kickoffs were Okay,

0:26:37.240 --> 0:26:40.200
<v Speaker 1>you're right. The Thanksgiving game he was on the field

0:26:40.240 --> 0:26:43.000
<v Speaker 1>once for a kickoff and that right, Okay, he never

0:26:43.040 --> 0:26:44.720
<v Speaker 1>got on that. Oh that's right, they did. They did

0:26:44.760 --> 0:26:48.760
<v Speaker 1>carry two kickers that day. Yeah, no I didn't. He

0:26:48.800 --> 0:26:51.840
<v Speaker 1>just wasn't active, right, But but but because they didn't

0:26:51.840 --> 0:26:53.600
<v Speaker 1>score any points and didn't go for two, or they

0:26:53.640 --> 0:26:55.280
<v Speaker 1>went for two. He only had to kick off and

0:26:55.320 --> 0:26:57.080
<v Speaker 1>that was the only thing. So you're right, you're right.

0:26:57.080 --> 0:27:01.400
<v Speaker 1>This was his third game, bag um. But I talked

0:27:01.440 --> 0:27:03.520
<v Speaker 1>to one of the athletic trainers after the game and

0:27:03.560 --> 0:27:06.359
<v Speaker 1>he said, he's gonna be fine. He's fine. Let's not

0:27:06.400 --> 0:27:08.480
<v Speaker 1>forget it was two fifty yard field goals, no the

0:27:09.080 --> 0:27:11.119
<v Speaker 1>and that's I have a hard time believe. I'm not

0:27:11.200 --> 0:27:13.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to assume he's not healthy, Like he

0:27:13.080 --> 0:27:15.040
<v Speaker 1>had a bad day in a tough place to kick,

0:27:15.080 --> 0:27:17.720
<v Speaker 1>and the extra point is the thing that makes me

0:27:17.880 --> 0:27:20.239
<v Speaker 1>go like that makes me double take, like missing a

0:27:20.240 --> 0:27:23.040
<v Speaker 1>fifty four yard or that had the distance and hit

0:27:23.080 --> 0:27:26.480
<v Speaker 1>the crossbar and then missing from fifty Like sure, you're

0:27:26.720 --> 0:27:29.280
<v Speaker 1>very used to seeing those things from Danna see that

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:32.840
<v Speaker 1>that kick, I mean it knuckled and went you know,

0:27:33.760 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>left right. I mean that that's like a screwball pitcher.

0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:39.760
<v Speaker 1>That's a crappy place to kick, Like it's windy, the

0:27:39.840 --> 0:27:42.080
<v Speaker 1>weather ain't great. That's that's my point, Like, I'm not

0:27:42.119 --> 0:27:44.640
<v Speaker 1>going to hold those two field goals against him, even

0:27:44.640 --> 0:27:47.159
<v Speaker 1>though I am used to seeing him make them. The

0:27:47.280 --> 0:27:50.600
<v Speaker 1>extra point is the thing that makes me, Like I said,

0:27:50.640 --> 0:27:52.560
<v Speaker 1>that's the one that I'm like, whoa, that's his first

0:27:52.600 --> 0:27:54.800
<v Speaker 1>missed extra point in seven years. Like, I think he's

0:27:54.880 --> 0:27:57.800
<v Speaker 1>now two hundred and seventy four for two hundred and

0:27:57.800 --> 0:28:01.080
<v Speaker 1>seventy five or something like that. Ye, that's he's so

0:28:01.359 --> 0:28:05.840
<v Speaker 1>his career percentage now drops to ninety nine point six percent. Yeah,

0:28:05.840 --> 0:28:09.199
<v Speaker 1>I think something like that. Um, well, he was the

0:28:09.240 --> 0:28:11.280
<v Speaker 1>most accurate kicker of all time. I don't know if

0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:13.040
<v Speaker 1>he still is. I know him and justin Tucker or

0:28:13.119 --> 0:28:14.960
<v Speaker 1>like back and forth, I don't know. Right up there,

0:28:15.240 --> 0:28:19.560
<v Speaker 1>it arguably his worst day at the office ever, which

0:28:19.640 --> 0:28:23.639
<v Speaker 1>is saying a lot. So Um, I chalk it up

0:28:23.680 --> 0:28:27.280
<v Speaker 1>to a bad day in bad conditions. Yeah, And everyone

0:28:27.400 --> 0:28:30.840
<v Speaker 1>has their bad days, and it's just really unusual to

0:28:30.880 --> 0:28:34.480
<v Speaker 1>see that from Dan Bailey because he usually pleases everyone

0:28:34.520 --> 0:28:37.639
<v Speaker 1>and makes and thus his job ride. But do you

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:40.280
<v Speaker 1>guys feel that this is something to be concerned about

0:28:40.360 --> 0:28:43.000
<v Speaker 1>moving forward or just it was as simple as just

0:28:43.200 --> 0:28:47.080
<v Speaker 1>having a bad day. Um, I don't know about being concerned.

0:28:47.080 --> 0:28:48.479
<v Speaker 1>I think we're going to watch it a little bit

0:28:48.520 --> 0:28:51.120
<v Speaker 1>closer and see. I don't think you're at the concern

0:28:51.240 --> 0:28:54.240
<v Speaker 1>level yet. But I think you know, first you see

0:28:54.240 --> 0:28:58.080
<v Speaker 1>one sign of of you know, well you had the injury,

0:28:58.080 --> 0:28:59.840
<v Speaker 1>and then that you see you're seeing things that you

0:28:59.880 --> 0:29:01.440
<v Speaker 1>have I haven't seen before. Like you said, the miss

0:29:01.440 --> 0:29:03.800
<v Speaker 1>extra point, not the two miss field goals, but the

0:29:03.840 --> 0:29:06.800
<v Speaker 1>miss extra point. And I even said it in the

0:29:06.800 --> 0:29:09.200
<v Speaker 1>press box before the kick. I would not attempt this

0:29:09.280 --> 0:29:10.920
<v Speaker 1>field goal, the one that banged off the upbraid. I

0:29:10.920 --> 0:29:13.000
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't do it. Not, not the way the Giants were

0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:15.200
<v Speaker 1>not really moving the ball in a game of field

0:29:15.200 --> 0:29:17.400
<v Speaker 1>position like this. Yeah, I think I think they do

0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:20.000
<v Speaker 1>that way too much. He's a great kicker and you know,

0:29:20.040 --> 0:29:22.640
<v Speaker 1>and they give him a lot of confidence. But sometimes

0:29:22.800 --> 0:29:25.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, the fifty two yard field goal or fifty

0:29:25.640 --> 0:29:28.360
<v Speaker 1>four the balls on the forty four yard line, I mean,

0:29:28.440 --> 0:29:31.040
<v Speaker 1>and then that's where they get it. I just i'd punt.

0:29:31.120 --> 0:29:32.920
<v Speaker 1>You got a great punter, he knows how to get

0:29:33.000 --> 0:29:34.959
<v Speaker 1>them down to the ten yard line or less. Just

0:29:35.120 --> 0:29:37.720
<v Speaker 1>use that weapon. That's the well, that's the flip side

0:29:37.800 --> 0:29:39.680
<v Speaker 1>is Dan Bailey has been so good for so many

0:29:39.720 --> 0:29:42.200
<v Speaker 1>years that once you get to about the fifty five

0:29:42.280 --> 0:29:45.200
<v Speaker 1>yard range, you feel pretty good about sending him out there.

0:29:45.840 --> 0:29:48.040
<v Speaker 1>But you get kind of spoiled by that to the

0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:51.760
<v Speaker 1>point where maybe you're you're attempting kicks that most teams

0:29:51.800 --> 0:29:54.280
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't expect. I mean, if you're at and T Stadium,

0:29:54.400 --> 0:29:57.400
<v Speaker 1>kick away but cold when I mean it was the

0:29:57.400 --> 0:30:00.280
<v Speaker 1>weather sucked there yesterday, Like I mean, it wasn't training

0:30:00.320 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>or anything, but it was not The conditions were not

0:30:03.440 --> 0:30:08.400
<v Speaker 1>great for stuff like that. So concerned, No, it's I mean, yeah,

0:30:08.440 --> 0:30:11.080
<v Speaker 1>it's I'm not gonna get up to get more water

0:30:11.320 --> 0:30:13.160
<v Speaker 1>when he's lining up for his next field goal, Like

0:30:13.200 --> 0:30:15.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not just going to assume it's an automatic. But

0:30:15.560 --> 0:30:17.640
<v Speaker 1>a little early for me to be concerned about him.

0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:20.960
<v Speaker 1>And based on everything that we got to watch on

0:30:21.120 --> 0:30:23.600
<v Speaker 1>yesterday's game, I mean, do you guys feel that the

0:30:23.640 --> 0:30:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys are doing what they need to do in order

0:30:26.520 --> 0:30:30.400
<v Speaker 1>to get the upcoming victories against the games that are

0:30:30.480 --> 0:30:34.320
<v Speaker 1>coming up game wise from what you saw, I mean,

0:30:34.640 --> 0:30:38.160
<v Speaker 1>with the exception of the fourth quarter, because we really

0:30:38.240 --> 0:30:40.280
<v Speaker 1>never get to see something like that. They really never

0:30:40.320 --> 0:30:43.600
<v Speaker 1>get to score that many point in that little amount

0:30:43.640 --> 0:30:45.960
<v Speaker 1>of time. Yeah, I mean, I think I know what

0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you're saying. I mean, if they're gonna if they're gonna

0:30:48.160 --> 0:30:50.440
<v Speaker 1>play like that, I mean, they got the Raiders coming

0:30:50.560 --> 0:30:55.600
<v Speaker 1>up here. We've said it several times. I think that

0:30:55.880 --> 0:30:57.600
<v Speaker 1>this is the game. I mean, this is the one

0:30:57.640 --> 0:31:01.360
<v Speaker 1>where you know that we'll see I don't want to

0:31:01.360 --> 0:31:03.040
<v Speaker 1>say we'll see what they're made up, but we'll see

0:31:03.080 --> 0:31:05.720
<v Speaker 1>if this season's got anything to it, because you know,

0:31:05.760 --> 0:31:08.120
<v Speaker 1>with the you lose three games in a row without

0:31:08.200 --> 0:31:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Zeke and you don't have Sean Lee, and then Sean's

0:31:10.760 --> 0:31:12.959
<v Speaker 1>just coming back, and now they're starting to win an

0:31:12.960 --> 0:31:15.239
<v Speaker 1>Alfred Morrises and the running game is starting to come on.

0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:17.520
<v Speaker 1>You can get this game up in Oakland. You get

0:31:17.560 --> 0:31:20.800
<v Speaker 1>to eight and six, you got Zeke coming back for

0:31:20.880 --> 0:31:23.160
<v Speaker 1>the last two, you know, and you got that last

0:31:23.160 --> 0:31:25.600
<v Speaker 1>game against Philly, which they they have wrapped up the division.

0:31:25.640 --> 0:31:28.080
<v Speaker 1>They're still gonna be playing for some other stuff. But

0:31:28.160 --> 0:31:30.560
<v Speaker 1>they don't have their quarterback. You know, that's something that

0:31:30.960 --> 0:31:32.840
<v Speaker 1>or they we don't think they're gonna have their quarterback

0:31:32.920 --> 0:31:36.080
<v Speaker 1>is the Officially he's getting an MRI today and they're

0:31:36.440 --> 0:31:40.680
<v Speaker 1>they're not hopeful. But okay, I've I've been to that

0:31:40.800 --> 0:31:43.240
<v Speaker 1>stadium in LA and I've I've been to that walk

0:31:43.360 --> 0:31:45.960
<v Speaker 1>up there. Yeah, when I get a cart for a

0:31:45.960 --> 0:31:48.960
<v Speaker 1>guy with the Torney cl Yeah, the franchise quarterback. They's

0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:50.920
<v Speaker 1>got a knee injury and we're gonna make him walk

0:31:51.000 --> 0:31:55.320
<v Speaker 1>up the ramp doesn't seem doesn't seem smart to me,

0:31:55.520 --> 0:31:59.600
<v Speaker 1>but good point. Yeah, no, for sure, that sucks. But

0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:02.720
<v Speaker 1>but you know, I'm sorry to cut you up. You're like, oh,

0:32:03.360 --> 0:32:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Wins is out? Oh okay, Well who's Nick Foles? The

0:32:07.040 --> 0:32:09.320
<v Speaker 1>guy went thirteen three a few years ago and went

0:32:09.360 --> 0:32:11.800
<v Speaker 1>to the Pro Bowl. I go through like twenty five

0:32:11.880 --> 0:32:15.480
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns and two picks or whatever. Okay, they're gonna be fine. Maybe,

0:32:15.560 --> 0:32:18.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean it'll be offense. Their offense didn't look great

0:32:18.400 --> 0:32:21.680
<v Speaker 1>after they WENTZ went out. I did. I mean, I

0:32:21.680 --> 0:32:24.400
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I know, like they're the Eagles and their

0:32:24.480 --> 0:32:27.040
<v Speaker 1>division rival, and it would you know, it would be

0:32:27.040 --> 0:32:29.560
<v Speaker 1>good for the Cowboys, I guess in some degree. But

0:32:29.960 --> 0:32:32.920
<v Speaker 1>that just takes even more or luster off of what

0:32:33.040 --> 0:32:35.680
<v Speaker 1>already has been a very mediocre season for me. Like

0:32:35.840 --> 0:32:40.320
<v Speaker 1>every every great player, an interesting team is just been

0:32:40.320 --> 0:32:42.240
<v Speaker 1>screwed over one way or another. I mean, the Cowboys

0:32:42.280 --> 0:32:45.600
<v Speaker 1>haven't had Zeke, the Packers haven't had Rogers, the Giants

0:32:45.640 --> 0:32:48.600
<v Speaker 1>haven't had Odell Beckham. The Eagles now are looking like

0:32:48.640 --> 0:32:51.040
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna finish one of their best years in recent

0:32:51.080 --> 0:32:54.680
<v Speaker 1>memory without their MVP caliber quarterback. And you know, I

0:32:54.760 --> 0:32:57.120
<v Speaker 1>know nobody listening to this has any love for the Eagles,

0:32:57.160 --> 0:32:58.920
<v Speaker 1>but like it just it just takes away from the

0:32:58.920 --> 0:33:00.640
<v Speaker 1>fun of the product. Like you want to watch the

0:33:00.640 --> 0:33:02.800
<v Speaker 1>best players play, and it's just been a crappy year

0:33:02.840 --> 0:33:06.560
<v Speaker 1>for that in my opinion. Well it's about to change.

0:33:06.800 --> 0:33:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Well yet, I mean, Rogers is coming back, It gets

0:33:10.120 --> 0:33:13.880
<v Speaker 1>coming back maybe the end of this season. I mean,

0:33:13.880 --> 0:33:17.360
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna get really really exciting for all these teams.

0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:19.640
<v Speaker 1>This three weeks looks like it's gonna be I mean

0:33:20.120 --> 0:33:22.800
<v Speaker 1>for the sake of drama, not just you know, the

0:33:23.480 --> 0:33:25.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Cowboys and our jobs and everything else.

0:33:25.600 --> 0:33:27.800
<v Speaker 1>But if they can get this win against Oakland, it's

0:33:27.800 --> 0:33:30.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna set up a fascinating end of the season. Yeah.

0:33:30.960 --> 0:33:33.479
<v Speaker 1>And I know everyone keeps looking at the standings and

0:33:33.960 --> 0:33:36.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, they don't get they're not getting as much

0:33:37.000 --> 0:33:39.720
<v Speaker 1>help as as they need that There's been a few

0:33:39.760 --> 0:33:41.440
<v Speaker 1>games here and there they could have been nice that

0:33:41.520 --> 0:33:44.560
<v Speaker 1>they you know, but all not to sound like Garrett

0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:46.120
<v Speaker 1>too much, but all they can do is just win,

0:33:46.560 --> 0:33:48.520
<v Speaker 1>just keep winning. If you can beat Oakland, you can

0:33:48.560 --> 0:33:50.960
<v Speaker 1>beat Seattle. But you go up to Philly and win.

0:33:52.000 --> 0:33:53.840
<v Speaker 1>You put yourself at ten and six, it's the best

0:33:53.880 --> 0:33:57.360
<v Speaker 1>you can do. I still feel like, somehow, some way,

0:33:57.360 --> 0:33:59.040
<v Speaker 1>if you get to ten and six, would you win

0:33:59.160 --> 0:34:02.600
<v Speaker 1>five straight games. I think it's gonna work out for him,

0:34:02.640 --> 0:34:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I really do. There's enough, I mean, there's enough stuff

0:34:05.920 --> 0:34:08.480
<v Speaker 1>that has to happen that makes that sound plausible. I mean,

0:34:09.080 --> 0:34:11.160
<v Speaker 1>the NFC South still has to play a ton of

0:34:11.160 --> 0:34:13.680
<v Speaker 1>games against each others, NFC North still has to play

0:34:13.680 --> 0:34:15.839
<v Speaker 1>a ton of games against each other. The Seahawks play

0:34:15.880 --> 0:34:18.719
<v Speaker 1>the Rams on Sunday. Just don't forget about the three

0:34:18.719 --> 0:34:21.439
<v Speaker 1>way ties. Just don't forget about that. Don't just look

0:34:21.480 --> 0:34:23.840
<v Speaker 1>at Atlanta and oh my god, if we're not above Atlanta,

0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:27.839
<v Speaker 1>you can't get there. Just just remember there's if you're

0:34:27.840 --> 0:34:30.440
<v Speaker 1>tied with Atlanta and someone else, you could be in

0:34:30.800 --> 0:34:35.400
<v Speaker 1>good shape. So the finally, like it's so it's amazing

0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the margin for error in the NFL. Like you think,

0:34:38.040 --> 0:34:40.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you think back for the Cowboys, You're like,

0:34:40.880 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 1>they can hold on to an eleven point win against

0:34:43.200 --> 0:34:45.600
<v Speaker 1>the Rams, or an eleven point lead against the Rams.

0:34:45.640 --> 0:34:48.680
<v Speaker 1>This is all probably moot or even I was texting

0:34:48.719 --> 0:34:51.680
<v Speaker 1>with my friend about that yesterday. I was like, if

0:34:51.680 --> 0:34:54.600
<v Speaker 1>the Browns can hold on to a fourteen point lead

0:34:54.640 --> 0:34:57.279
<v Speaker 1>in the fourth quarter against the Packers who don't have

0:34:57.320 --> 0:34:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers, you know, maybe that changes this whole sea

0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:04.520
<v Speaker 1>reason for you. Like that just Brett Hundley, Brett Hundley's

0:35:04.520 --> 0:35:08.000
<v Speaker 1>ability to lead the Packers back to a win against

0:35:08.040 --> 0:35:12.359
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland in the fourth quarter in overtime. Like, I mean,

0:35:12.800 --> 0:35:15.360
<v Speaker 1>it's a stretch, but it theoretically could be the difference

0:35:15.360 --> 0:35:17.880
<v Speaker 1>between the Packers getting to the super Bowl or not,

0:35:17.880 --> 0:35:20.080
<v Speaker 1>because I mean, once Aaron Rodgers comes back, who the

0:35:20.080 --> 0:35:22.960
<v Speaker 1>hell knows what they can do? It's through it's wild man, Okay,

0:35:22.960 --> 0:35:25.360
<v Speaker 1>And so let's talk about these rookies I got to

0:35:25.440 --> 0:35:28.440
<v Speaker 1>play in the secondary. Did you guys, what did you

0:35:28.440 --> 0:35:31.359
<v Speaker 1>guys think about their performance? Well, again, you know, they're

0:35:31.400 --> 0:35:34.880
<v Speaker 1>not having to go up against elite, elite receivers, but

0:35:35.160 --> 0:35:37.200
<v Speaker 1>they did a nice job. You know, with Eli Manning,

0:35:37.200 --> 0:35:39.120
<v Speaker 1>he wants to get the ball out quick, that's what

0:35:39.160 --> 0:35:41.040
<v Speaker 1>he does. So the main thing is when you have

0:35:41.160 --> 0:35:43.680
<v Speaker 1>to do that, you either throw these little short routes

0:35:43.719 --> 0:35:44.919
<v Speaker 1>and they got to go up and make the play.

0:35:44.960 --> 0:35:47.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought they had competed very well. I thought Jordan

0:35:47.080 --> 0:35:49.919
<v Speaker 1>Lewis had a nice game. They did some rotating there

0:35:49.960 --> 0:35:54.120
<v Speaker 1>with with Cheeto and Anthony Brown. I thought Cheetah was

0:35:54.160 --> 0:35:56.040
<v Speaker 1>on the sideline a little more than I expected. But

0:35:56.080 --> 0:35:58.399
<v Speaker 1>when he I mean it wasn't anything injury wise, because

0:35:58.400 --> 0:35:59.680
<v Speaker 1>he was back out there at the end and he

0:35:59.719 --> 0:36:02.200
<v Speaker 1>made it nice play on the ball. Well, Cheeto and

0:36:02.320 --> 0:36:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Sean both, I know people were asking about that. That

0:36:05.719 --> 0:36:09.040
<v Speaker 1>is apparently a plan just to keep both of them fresh.

0:36:09.040 --> 0:36:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Like Sean Lee took a series off in the third quarter,

0:36:11.920 --> 0:36:14.560
<v Speaker 1>Cheeto took a series, rotated a series or two. I

0:36:14.560 --> 0:36:16.880
<v Speaker 1>think that's These are guys who've been dealing with injuries.

0:36:16.880 --> 0:36:18.920
<v Speaker 1>You just don't want to make him play, especially giants

0:36:18.960 --> 0:36:21.239
<v Speaker 1>were in seventy five plays. You probably don't want them

0:36:21.440 --> 0:36:24.879
<v Speaker 1>doing that right off the bat, so especially Sean which

0:36:24.920 --> 0:36:28.360
<v Speaker 1>is why they did that. You know, after watching that game,

0:36:28.800 --> 0:36:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, cut, no wonder Sean Lee gets hurt all

0:36:32.680 --> 0:36:35.680
<v Speaker 1>the time. I mean, he's out there making all kinds

0:36:35.680 --> 0:36:39.319
<v Speaker 1>of tackles and that has to wear off on you.

0:36:39.360 --> 0:36:42.399
<v Speaker 1>And I asked him about that yesterday, asked him if

0:36:42.400 --> 0:36:45.760
<v Speaker 1>he feels that that is the case. And of course

0:36:45.920 --> 0:36:50.759
<v Speaker 1>his answers are always very right, politically right, and just

0:36:50.840 --> 0:36:53.440
<v Speaker 1>like you know, doesn't matter the injury, I'm gonna be

0:36:53.480 --> 0:36:56.320
<v Speaker 1>out there. They didn't really answer the question, but just

0:36:57.120 --> 0:36:59.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's amazing to see him playing the Marcus

0:36:59.719 --> 0:37:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Lauren is over here, like on a scale at one

0:37:02.120 --> 0:37:04.600
<v Speaker 1>to ten, he's like a ten out of interesting. And

0:37:04.719 --> 0:37:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Sean Lee's like he's he's way yeah, he might be

0:37:07.960 --> 0:37:11.040
<v Speaker 1>a Yeah, you can't really get so game balls if

0:37:11.040 --> 0:37:12.920
<v Speaker 1>you had to give it a game ball and you

0:37:12.960 --> 0:37:15.719
<v Speaker 1>don't get Rod Smith and you don't get Shaun Lee

0:37:15.800 --> 0:37:20.680
<v Speaker 1>and you don't get that, just we just can't have him. No,

0:37:21.080 --> 0:37:23.320
<v Speaker 1>all right, they already they already get like a special

0:37:23.400 --> 0:37:25.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of game ball, all right. I don't get Desmond.

0:37:26.000 --> 0:37:30.120
<v Speaker 1>You haven't mentioned his uh long play much. That's Bryant,

0:37:30.320 --> 0:37:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Desmond demand Bryant. You're just saying that because y'all have

0:37:33.000 --> 0:37:35.719
<v Speaker 1>the same birthday. No, and it's awesome play. I haven't

0:37:35.760 --> 0:37:38.400
<v Speaker 1>seen him make a play that long, and and yours

0:37:38.440 --> 0:37:41.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe can't. I've seen we did talk about earlier, but

0:37:41.719 --> 0:37:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I let's see on the replay he was coming right

0:37:44.600 --> 0:37:46.480
<v Speaker 1>at you. I mean, oh yeah, is that a good

0:37:46.600 --> 0:37:49.520
<v Speaker 1>check out on Cowboys Twitter. Okay, the gift of it, Yeah, okay,

0:37:49.520 --> 0:37:52.200
<v Speaker 1>all right, if following your parameters, and I mean, you

0:37:52.239 --> 0:37:56.120
<v Speaker 1>know I got loved for des Kent, but following your parameters,

0:37:56.480 --> 0:37:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm definitely giving one to Beasley because I think his

0:37:59.480 --> 0:38:02.479
<v Speaker 1>fifty four yard game really like, I mean, that set

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:04.640
<v Speaker 1>the pay like that was. I don't want to go

0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:06.400
<v Speaker 1>as far as to say it decided the game, but

0:38:06.480 --> 0:38:08.560
<v Speaker 1>it kind of. It got the snowball rolling. I mean,

0:38:08.560 --> 0:38:11.560
<v Speaker 1>they nice touchdown past to Jason Witton on the next play,

0:38:11.640 --> 0:38:14.439
<v Speaker 1>then you've got a lead and and everything goes out

0:38:14.520 --> 0:38:18.960
<v Speaker 1>from there. So Beasley for sure, Um, I've got one

0:38:19.040 --> 0:38:22.040
<v Speaker 1>here probably if I can't have Sean lead and I'm

0:38:22.080 --> 0:38:24.080
<v Speaker 1>giving one to Anthony Hitching so he was just as

0:38:24.080 --> 0:38:27.919
<v Speaker 1>good Fule. I mean early in the game, they get

0:38:27.920 --> 0:38:30.239
<v Speaker 1>that ball, they're already up three nothing. First play of

0:38:30.239 --> 0:38:31.880
<v Speaker 1>the game they forced a fumble and the balls is

0:38:31.960 --> 0:38:35.440
<v Speaker 1>rolling around out there and then everything. I wanted to

0:38:35.440 --> 0:38:37.080
<v Speaker 1>find a way to give one to Chris Jones because

0:38:37.120 --> 0:38:39.120
<v Speaker 1>I thought he had a really good day. But Jeff

0:38:39.160 --> 0:38:43.160
<v Speaker 1>Heath he had a really good game too, Okay, And

0:38:43.200 --> 0:38:47.319
<v Speaker 1>it was supposed to just take one oh sorry, all right, well,

0:38:47.600 --> 0:38:52.240
<v Speaker 1>let's take our final break. Ten ten tackles, one for loss,

0:38:52.520 --> 0:38:55.320
<v Speaker 1>one interception, one pass breakup, and a special teams tackle

0:38:55.440 --> 0:38:58.399
<v Speaker 1>that's easily all around, like all aspects of the game.

0:38:58.440 --> 0:39:00.880
<v Speaker 1>One of his best career. It was a game for him.

0:39:00.920 --> 0:39:03.799
<v Speaker 1>It was nice to see that. So anyways, let's take

0:39:03.800 --> 0:39:06.720

0:42:13.200 --> 0:42:16.279
<v Speaker 1>All right guys. Well, we have a caller from Arizona.

0:42:16.680 --> 0:42:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Mike Yo. Hello, what up? What's up? Hey? What's going on?

0:42:23.719 --> 0:42:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Happy victory Monday baby? YouTube? Hey? Straight up? Man? Um

0:42:30.239 --> 0:42:33.000
<v Speaker 1>I Well, Ken told me to keep it short. The

0:42:33.600 --> 0:42:39.280
<v Speaker 1>team that I love most of yesterday was within shake

0:42:39.400 --> 0:42:43.799
<v Speaker 1>move after callers got out and daknd him on the seam.

0:42:43.840 --> 0:42:46.400
<v Speaker 1>It feels like we haven't seen a steam route touchdown

0:42:46.600 --> 0:42:51.560
<v Speaker 1>or long play since, like Bryce Butler against the Lions

0:42:51.600 --> 0:42:54.560
<v Speaker 1>on Monday Night a year ago. So it was happy

0:42:54.600 --> 0:42:57.400
<v Speaker 1>to see that and that on Wit still has it

0:42:57.640 --> 0:43:00.680
<v Speaker 1>in him to get to get down field and to

0:43:00.960 --> 0:43:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Dak to find him was beautiful. Man. Thank you, guys,

0:43:03.719 --> 0:43:07.279
<v Speaker 1>stop playing. Thank you. That's I'm meant to bring that

0:43:07.400 --> 0:43:09.880
<v Speaker 1>up when we were kind of recapping the game at

0:43:09.880 --> 0:43:12.279
<v Speaker 1>the beginning like that, and I know Lannon Collins wasn't there.

0:43:12.320 --> 0:43:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. That was just a seem the seam

0:43:15.719 --> 0:43:18.080
<v Speaker 1>route for like a nice game or a scores like

0:43:18.120 --> 0:43:20.279
<v Speaker 1>my favorite playing football, like when you just like when

0:43:20.400 --> 0:43:22.920
<v Speaker 1>it because it's not it's not open, you know, like

0:43:22.960 --> 0:43:25.399
<v Speaker 1>the routes not usually just wide open. You gotta throw

0:43:25.440 --> 0:43:26.880
<v Speaker 1>it just the right way, like you gotta get it

0:43:26.920 --> 0:43:29.920
<v Speaker 1>over the linebacker and under the safety. And it was

0:43:29.960 --> 0:43:32.160
<v Speaker 1>a really nice throw by Dak And you know, it

0:43:32.239 --> 0:43:34.960
<v Speaker 1>was Witten's only catch. I'm sure he appreciated that. I

0:43:35.440 --> 0:43:38.560
<v Speaker 1>loved it, and it was I mean, it seemed that

0:43:39.480 --> 0:43:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Jason Witten wasn't even playing. I mean he just disappeared

0:43:42.360 --> 0:43:44.200
<v Speaker 1>in the game and all of a sudden, you get

0:43:44.239 --> 0:43:46.680
<v Speaker 1>that catch and it was great. Yeah. He you know,

0:43:46.719 --> 0:43:49.360
<v Speaker 1>he had had that holding penalty and I think Fox

0:43:49.360 --> 0:43:50.800
<v Speaker 1>had put it up there a couple of times. No

0:43:50.960 --> 0:43:53.480
<v Speaker 1>catches today for Jason Witten. He only has two catches

0:43:53.520 --> 0:43:56.840
<v Speaker 1>the last two games, but there were both touchdowns. Fifteen

0:43:57.440 --> 0:44:01.920
<v Speaker 1>career touchdown against New York. Hey, don't forget about another

0:44:02.200 --> 0:44:05.640
<v Speaker 1>nice catch from a tight end James Hannah. Oh yeah,

0:44:05.760 --> 0:44:09.440
<v Speaker 1>nice play over the mill was one of the best catches. No,

0:44:10.800 --> 0:44:13.800
<v Speaker 1>just kidding. He's been good in the run game, right, No,

0:44:14.000 --> 0:44:16.719
<v Speaker 1>he has, he has, that's not his role, but you

0:44:16.760 --> 0:44:18.879
<v Speaker 1>know that, like he had a nice play and they

0:44:18.960 --> 0:44:21.560
<v Speaker 1>needed somebody to make to do something. There we have

0:44:21.760 --> 0:44:24.840
<v Speaker 1>like those cliche talking points about all of the players

0:44:24.840 --> 0:44:27.080
<v Speaker 1>who don't get involved that much, Like you're like James

0:44:27.080 --> 0:44:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Hannah's got better hands than he gets credit for. Like

0:44:29.400 --> 0:44:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Bryce Butler's got long stride speed like all that. But

0:44:33.200 --> 0:44:36.279
<v Speaker 1>every time James Hannah has an opportunity, he usually makes

0:44:36.280 --> 0:44:38.800
<v Speaker 1>a nice play. Yeah, I mean, I think he averages

0:44:38.840 --> 0:44:41.879
<v Speaker 1>about three catches per season, but they're usually I mean

0:44:41.920 --> 0:44:43.520
<v Speaker 1>that was I think that was his first catch since

0:44:43.520 --> 0:44:45.759
<v Speaker 1>he scored that touchdown against the Rams. Hey, you know,

0:44:45.840 --> 0:44:48.719
<v Speaker 1>we were talking about game balls and guys that did well.

0:44:48.840 --> 0:44:51.640
<v Speaker 1>This isn't really game ball worthy, but three special teams

0:44:51.640 --> 0:44:54.080
<v Speaker 1>tackles in one game is a lot Byron Jones. Got

0:44:54.080 --> 0:44:56.600
<v Speaker 1>to give him some credit. There three special teams plays.

0:44:56.640 --> 0:44:59.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's one is good too, is really good.

0:45:00.160 --> 0:45:02.600
<v Speaker 1>But you don't you usually don't see three by one player.

0:45:03.120 --> 0:45:06.880
<v Speaker 1>So I was really new rule. I was really pumped

0:45:07.040 --> 0:45:09.640
<v Speaker 1>that my guy Taco had a quarterback pressure on it.

0:45:09.800 --> 0:45:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Like he made a nice play where he kind of

0:45:11.520 --> 0:45:14.560
<v Speaker 1>came unblocked and forced Eli to make a bad uh

0:45:14.719 --> 0:45:16.520
<v Speaker 1>and it was an incompletion. I think it brought up

0:45:16.560 --> 0:45:19.319
<v Speaker 1>fourth down or third down. But then I got home

0:45:19.400 --> 0:45:23.400
<v Speaker 1>last night and d J. Watt sacked Joe Flacco to

0:45:23.400 --> 0:45:27.960
<v Speaker 1>win the game. Yeah, yeah, it's just fine. He's just

0:45:28.000 --> 0:45:30.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna it's fine. Not gonna be able to live that one. No,

0:45:31.239 --> 0:45:35.080
<v Speaker 1>probably not. Speaking of the defensive line, do you guys

0:45:35.200 --> 0:45:37.759
<v Speaker 1>feel this is a question from Twitter. Do you guys

0:45:37.800 --> 0:45:41.239
<v Speaker 1>feel that the fact that David Irvin wasn't in the

0:45:41.320 --> 0:45:45.759
<v Speaker 1>line plane affected the way that they're performed? I think so.

0:45:45.840 --> 0:45:48.759
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's a it's a big drop off from

0:45:48.760 --> 0:45:52.480
<v Speaker 1>a side standpoint to go to Lewis Neal and all that,

0:45:52.560 --> 0:45:56.160
<v Speaker 1>and but yeah, I think it's a it's a tough

0:45:56.320 --> 0:45:59.040
<v Speaker 1>matchup for some of these offensive linemen, and the Giants

0:45:59.040 --> 0:46:01.359
<v Speaker 1>have not faced They did not face David Irving all

0:46:01.400 --> 0:46:03.839
<v Speaker 1>year because he wasn't there for that first game. So yeah,

0:46:03.840 --> 0:46:07.520
<v Speaker 1>I think he adds a lot in the middle. I'd

0:46:07.520 --> 0:46:09.760
<v Speaker 1>like to see him back for this game. We'll see

0:46:10.000 --> 0:46:12.680
<v Speaker 1>you know. I saw him today. Yeah, he's eating breakfast.

0:46:12.920 --> 0:46:15.960
<v Speaker 1>It's it's hard for me to It's hard for me

0:46:16.000 --> 0:46:18.200
<v Speaker 1>to like kill the defensive line. The Giants ran for

0:46:18.239 --> 0:46:20.400
<v Speaker 1>three point five yards per carry. Their longest run of

0:46:20.440 --> 0:46:24.359
<v Speaker 1>the day was thirteen, which Wayne Gallman is their best

0:46:24.440 --> 0:46:27.000
<v Speaker 1>running back. I don't like. I don't mean that as

0:46:27.040 --> 0:46:29.719
<v Speaker 1>a knock on Shane Vereen or Orleans Darkwa, but I

0:46:29.760 --> 0:46:32.480
<v Speaker 1>don't get why it's as much of a committee as

0:46:32.520 --> 0:46:34.399
<v Speaker 1>it is for them. Almost like they in the second

0:46:34.440 --> 0:46:36.120
<v Speaker 1>half they're like, why aren't we giving the ball to

0:46:36.280 --> 0:46:38.279
<v Speaker 1>this guy? And then they came out and they did

0:46:39.080 --> 0:46:41.120
<v Speaker 1>big runs. He's a good player, but there long in

0:46:41.160 --> 0:46:45.480
<v Speaker 1>the day was thirteen, so it's not like they played terrible.

0:46:45.600 --> 0:46:47.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think at least, yeah, like you give up

0:46:47.520 --> 0:46:50.319
<v Speaker 1>some size, you certainly give up some pass rushability, and

0:46:50.360 --> 0:46:53.200
<v Speaker 1>I wonder how much of an impact that made on

0:46:53.320 --> 0:46:56.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, DeMarcus Lawrence and Tyrone Crawford. I felt like,

0:46:56.920 --> 0:47:00.959
<v Speaker 1>given how banged up this Giant's line is, I really

0:47:00.960 --> 0:47:02.799
<v Speaker 1>thought that they would get more pressure. And I know

0:47:02.880 --> 0:47:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Eli's whole mo is to get the ball out fast,

0:47:05.040 --> 0:47:09.360
<v Speaker 1>but still, I mean Chad Wheeler, who's playing right tackle

0:47:09.440 --> 0:47:12.840
<v Speaker 1>for Justin Pugh, I mean he got he was a turnstyle.

0:47:12.880 --> 0:47:15.440
<v Speaker 1>He's been at turnstyle for weeks, like Khalil Mack and

0:47:15.520 --> 0:47:19.839
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Carrigan just demolished him. And I really I thought

0:47:19.840 --> 0:47:21.440
<v Speaker 1>we'd see a little bit more of that and I

0:47:21.800 --> 0:47:24.719
<v Speaker 1>wonder if not having irv irving there like allowed them

0:47:24.719 --> 0:47:26.960
<v Speaker 1>to kind of focus more on Lawrence and some of

0:47:26.960 --> 0:47:29.799
<v Speaker 1>the other guys. Maybe that's why. Okay, guys, we do

0:47:29.920 --> 0:47:34.440
<v Speaker 1>have another caller, Mike in La another Mike. Hi. How

0:47:34.400 --> 0:47:37.080
<v Speaker 1>are you doing? Hey, how are you Mike? Good? Thank you?

0:47:37.600 --> 0:47:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Just wondering on the Giants first drive, the second fumble

0:47:41.560 --> 0:47:44.840
<v Speaker 1>when they got across the first down marker and fumbled

0:47:44.880 --> 0:47:48.440
<v Speaker 1>it backward. I was just trying to understand why that

0:47:48.520 --> 0:47:54.000
<v Speaker 1>was a first down. Well thanks, A lot of people

0:47:54.040 --> 0:47:56.879
<v Speaker 1>have been talking about this. I did not record the game,

0:47:56.880 --> 0:47:58.799
<v Speaker 1>and I'm mad about it, so I would have gone

0:47:58.840 --> 0:48:01.000
<v Speaker 1>back to watch that when it does make the highlight tape.

0:48:01.040 --> 0:48:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I would like to see that one again because it

0:48:02.800 --> 0:48:04.560
<v Speaker 1>got a lot of buzz in the in the press

0:48:04.640 --> 0:48:06.880
<v Speaker 1>box there. I need I need to see it again too.

0:48:07.080 --> 0:48:09.759
<v Speaker 1>I apologize for not having watched it over again yet.

0:48:09.760 --> 0:48:13.680
<v Speaker 1>But the thing that I was told, so he catches it,

0:48:13.760 --> 0:48:18.040
<v Speaker 1>the fumble is forced. Um. They they ruled that what

0:48:18.160 --> 0:48:21.439
<v Speaker 1>it was forward progress was stopped and and they take

0:48:21.520 --> 0:48:23.759
<v Speaker 1>over where they where the fumble happened instead of where

0:48:23.760 --> 0:48:26.920
<v Speaker 1>it was recovered. Like, you can't challenge that that's what

0:48:27.000 --> 0:48:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I was told, and that's why you know that. That

0:48:29.160 --> 0:48:32.600
<v Speaker 1>is like the that is like the refs like get

0:48:32.600 --> 0:48:35.800
<v Speaker 1>out of jail free card, just the just the forward

0:48:35.800 --> 0:48:41.040
<v Speaker 1>progress is stopped, which which is the worst. I hate

0:48:41.080 --> 0:48:44.840
<v Speaker 1>that rule because it is so it is so tailored

0:48:44.880 --> 0:48:48.440
<v Speaker 1>to the offense. Because yeah, because when whenever they decide

0:48:48.440 --> 0:48:50.720
<v Speaker 1>that the play is over, because the defense starts pushing

0:48:50.719 --> 0:48:53.040
<v Speaker 1>them back, well that's forward progress. But for some reason,

0:48:53.120 --> 0:48:55.600
<v Speaker 1>every offensive lineman could come from the other side and

0:48:55.680 --> 0:48:58.320
<v Speaker 1>just push you even though your forward progress has been stopped.

0:48:58.760 --> 0:49:01.120
<v Speaker 1>If you got four hundred pound lineman that could just

0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:03.920
<v Speaker 1>push you into the end zone, then then forward progresses

0:49:03.960 --> 0:49:06.080
<v Speaker 1>back on again. Like I don't get that. And not

0:49:06.120 --> 0:49:09.600
<v Speaker 1>only that, but in a world where replay can fix

0:49:09.680 --> 0:49:14.040
<v Speaker 1>almost anything, in a world replay can fix anything, kind

0:49:14.040 --> 0:49:18.080
<v Speaker 1>of really good. When replay can fix almost any call

0:49:18.160 --> 0:49:21.080
<v Speaker 1>you make, Like Lee, I always lean toward waiting to

0:49:21.320 --> 0:49:23.759
<v Speaker 1>blow the play dead. And I know you gotta worry

0:49:23.760 --> 0:49:26.080
<v Speaker 1>about injuries and look out for guys health and stuff

0:49:26.120 --> 0:49:28.360
<v Speaker 1>like that, but you can correct a lot of this

0:49:28.400 --> 0:49:30.600
<v Speaker 1>stuff by just letting it go on, and then you

0:49:30.600 --> 0:49:33.440
<v Speaker 1>can fix it later if you're wrong. Okay, that's a

0:49:33.480 --> 0:49:36.800
<v Speaker 1>good point. Here's here's another problem I have with replay

0:49:37.360 --> 0:49:39.840
<v Speaker 1>is that I think that happens a lot in college

0:49:39.840 --> 0:49:42.680
<v Speaker 1>football too, where they say, you know, if we think

0:49:42.719 --> 0:49:45.480
<v Speaker 1>it's a fumble, then his arm was moving forward, just

0:49:45.719 --> 0:49:47.640
<v Speaker 1>rule it a fumble. We'll clean it up later. Or

0:49:47.640 --> 0:49:49.319
<v Speaker 1>if we think it you know whatever, just call it

0:49:49.360 --> 0:49:51.400
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown or call it a turnover. We'll fix it

0:49:51.440 --> 0:49:53.440
<v Speaker 1>and replay. But then the problem is is when they

0:49:53.440 --> 0:49:56.320
<v Speaker 1>get under the hood and they look at it, everyone says, well,

0:49:56.480 --> 0:49:58.440
<v Speaker 1>the call on the field was this, so it's gotta

0:49:58.520 --> 0:50:02.160
<v Speaker 1>be you gotta have you know, yeah, sure evidence that

0:50:02.320 --> 0:50:04.359
<v Speaker 1>to overturn it. And I'm like, well, that's not really

0:50:04.400 --> 0:50:06.000
<v Speaker 1>the case because we're just kind of letting it go

0:50:06.040 --> 0:50:07.439
<v Speaker 1>because we want to clean it up. So why don't

0:50:07.440 --> 0:50:09.319
<v Speaker 1>we just getting under the hood and just say, I

0:50:09.320 --> 0:50:11.920
<v Speaker 1>don't care what the call was, what is it? Okay?

0:50:12.360 --> 0:50:13.960
<v Speaker 1>You know what I mean? I wish they did that

0:50:14.040 --> 0:50:16.719
<v Speaker 1>more because they're letting these players just go because they

0:50:16.719 --> 0:50:18.960
<v Speaker 1>think replay can catch it. I get what you mean,

0:50:19.120 --> 0:50:22.279
<v Speaker 1>but as far as I understand it, Jason Garrett could

0:50:22.320 --> 0:50:24.360
<v Speaker 1>not have challenged that play if you wanted to do

0:50:24.600 --> 0:50:27.880
<v Speaker 1>as they say. You know, people just want to be mad.

0:50:27.960 --> 0:50:29.839
<v Speaker 1>And I mean, you're at the you're in the first

0:50:29.920 --> 0:50:34.080
<v Speaker 1>quarter of a game between disappointing teams, and people want

0:50:34.120 --> 0:50:36.520
<v Speaker 1>to be mad about something. But because you're already mad

0:50:36.520 --> 0:50:38.040
<v Speaker 1>because you have first and goal in the four and

0:50:38.080 --> 0:50:41.680
<v Speaker 1>you didn't score. Right, But there wasn't a whole lot

0:50:41.719 --> 0:50:43.800
<v Speaker 1>they could have done in that situation, just a bad

0:50:43.880 --> 0:50:45.799
<v Speaker 1>I'd tell you what that. I didn't like the play

0:50:45.800 --> 0:50:48.760
<v Speaker 1>calling there though, going back a little bit, first possession,

0:50:48.800 --> 0:50:51.040
<v Speaker 1>person goal in the four, get one yard run, second

0:50:51.040 --> 0:50:53.880
<v Speaker 1>and three you forced the ball into Terrence Williams. Then

0:50:54.040 --> 0:50:56.920
<v Speaker 1>third and three you forced the ball into Terrence Williams.

0:50:57.440 --> 0:51:01.879
<v Speaker 1>It's uh. The Ravens the Evens did something similar last

0:51:02.000 --> 0:51:04.239
<v Speaker 1>night where they had a chance to really try to

0:51:04.280 --> 0:51:07.360
<v Speaker 1>ice the game and they ran, you know, Alex collins

0:51:07.400 --> 0:51:10.959
<v Speaker 1>your guys just killing Pittsburgh and they threw the ball

0:51:11.000 --> 0:51:13.960
<v Speaker 1>twice and Chris Collinsworth is like, well, you see here,

0:51:14.600 --> 0:51:17.400
<v Speaker 1>this third down plays an RPO. It's a run pass option.

0:51:17.560 --> 0:51:20.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, why don't I don't care what stop with

0:51:20.640 --> 0:51:23.800
<v Speaker 1>the RPO? Run the ball and I like, Scott Linahan's

0:51:23.840 --> 0:51:25.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna tell me that. It's like, it's not that simple,

0:51:25.880 --> 0:51:27.319
<v Speaker 1>and there's not a lot of space down in the

0:51:27.320 --> 0:51:30.719
<v Speaker 1>red zone. I don't buy it. Make them prove that

0:51:30.760 --> 0:51:33.000
<v Speaker 1>they can stop you. That needs to be a run

0:51:33.040 --> 0:51:37.360
<v Speaker 1>pass option with Dak. Give him the opportunity. Don't stand

0:51:37.440 --> 0:51:40.040
<v Speaker 1>there now. They did make him throw more from the pocket.

0:51:40.080 --> 0:51:44.120
<v Speaker 1>But I just Terrence Williams is a guy that over

0:51:44.160 --> 0:51:46.960
<v Speaker 1>the years, he hasn't really been that you know, contested

0:51:47.040 --> 0:51:50.080
<v Speaker 1>catch like me versus you, and I'm coming down with it,

0:51:50.120 --> 0:51:52.759
<v Speaker 1>I mean not always, and especially down there at the

0:51:52.760 --> 0:51:56.399
<v Speaker 1>red zone. I just think there's death. There's different options there.

0:51:56.560 --> 0:52:00.600
<v Speaker 1>You have first and goal at the like this. I'm sorry. Yeah,

0:52:00.640 --> 0:52:02.879
<v Speaker 1>you can tell me that this is elementary and I'm dumb,

0:52:02.920 --> 0:52:06.000
<v Speaker 1>but you have second and three at the three. If

0:52:06.080 --> 0:52:13.040
<v Speaker 1>you run twice, even if you don't score, you're the

0:52:13.120 --> 0:52:16.239
<v Speaker 1>worst case scenario. The absolute worst case scenario is that

0:52:16.239 --> 0:52:18.040
<v Speaker 1>you're going to turn the ball over on downs at

0:52:18.040 --> 0:52:21.880
<v Speaker 1>the one yard line against an absolutely crap offense. I agree,

0:52:21.960 --> 0:52:25.080
<v Speaker 1>second and second down is the play because if you

0:52:25.120 --> 0:52:27.520
<v Speaker 1>can run to get to the two, then third down

0:52:27.560 --> 0:52:28.759
<v Speaker 1>you can run to get to the one, and then

0:52:28.800 --> 0:52:30.480
<v Speaker 1>you go on fourth down. And I know you said

0:52:30.520 --> 0:52:32.520
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter you're going four on fourth down. And I agree,

0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:35.480
<v Speaker 1>let's go. Let's get the touchdown against this team the

0:52:35.520 --> 0:52:39.080
<v Speaker 1>way this season's gone. Knowing that, yeah, like to your point,

0:52:39.120 --> 0:52:41.239
<v Speaker 1>you want to weather the first quarter and like really

0:52:41.280 --> 0:52:44.560
<v Speaker 1>build some momentum to start. I just obviously it didn't

0:52:44.600 --> 0:52:46.799
<v Speaker 1>come back to bite them, but I would have done

0:52:46.800 --> 0:52:48.600
<v Speaker 1>it very different. This is so this kind of answers

0:52:48.640 --> 0:52:51.520
<v Speaker 1>your question. I think from the previous segment or earlier,

0:52:51.560 --> 0:52:55.799
<v Speaker 1>this segment about moving forward now and playing a better team,

0:52:55.840 --> 0:52:57.840
<v Speaker 1>then you're gonna play better teams than this. Again, the

0:52:58.120 --> 0:53:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys have not beaten a team with a winning record,

0:53:00.800 --> 0:53:03.720
<v Speaker 1>and they will have to face two though with because

0:53:04.120 --> 0:53:08.799
<v Speaker 1>Seattle's eight and six, Seattle's eight and five, so they

0:53:08.840 --> 0:53:11.319
<v Speaker 1>definitely will have a winning record when they face them,

0:53:11.320 --> 0:53:14.000
<v Speaker 1>and of course the Eagles will as well. So my

0:53:14.000 --> 0:53:15.600
<v Speaker 1>point is you gonna face some good teams. To the

0:53:15.680 --> 0:53:17.839
<v Speaker 1>Raiders loss to go down to six and seven, but

0:53:17.880 --> 0:53:19.920
<v Speaker 1>they're much better a team than this, especially at home.

0:53:19.960 --> 0:53:23.279
<v Speaker 1>So you know, some of the way the Cowboys played

0:53:23.280 --> 0:53:25.319
<v Speaker 1>in those first three quarters probably not going to be

0:53:25.320 --> 0:53:27.640
<v Speaker 1>good enough here to get it done. Just to see

0:53:27.640 --> 0:53:29.640
<v Speaker 1>what the Raiders receivers look like. I know they did

0:53:29.640 --> 0:53:32.760
<v Speaker 1>suffer an injury at receiver. I missed that. I believe

0:53:32.800 --> 0:53:36.520
<v Speaker 1>Amari Cooper went I know he went down, but I

0:53:36.520 --> 0:53:38.680
<v Speaker 1>don't know if he's out for I don't think he

0:53:38.760 --> 0:53:41.600
<v Speaker 1>returned to the game. He got blocking downfield and got

0:53:41.640 --> 0:53:43.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of rolled up on. I don't know what his

0:53:43.280 --> 0:53:45.719
<v Speaker 1>status is. That's a great point, and I'm sure there's

0:53:45.800 --> 0:53:49.839
<v Speaker 1>like an angry Cowboys fan out there who is apoplectic

0:53:49.880 --> 0:53:52.239
<v Speaker 1>about how nice we've been about this game because it,

0:53:52.560 --> 0:53:57.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean this seventy five percent of this performance probably

0:53:57.280 --> 0:53:59.600
<v Speaker 1>wasn't good enough to win against their next three opponents.

0:54:00.040 --> 0:54:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Had to guess they had a really good fourth quarter.

0:54:02.840 --> 0:54:05.880
<v Speaker 1>But it's gonna need I mean, you know, the defense.

0:54:06.120 --> 0:54:08.399
<v Speaker 1>Sean Lee said it after the game. The defense didn't

0:54:08.440 --> 0:54:10.800
<v Speaker 1>play where to the level they wanted to to start.

0:54:10.840 --> 0:54:13.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean the Giants had a seventeen play drive to

0:54:13.200 --> 0:54:16.799
<v Speaker 1>open this game. Uh That's yeah, that's all gonna need

0:54:16.840 --> 0:54:20.000
<v Speaker 1>to be. There's no beast mode running back for the Giants.

0:54:20.280 --> 0:54:23.280
<v Speaker 1>There's no nothing for the Giants. I mean Eli Manning,

0:54:24.080 --> 0:54:26.959
<v Speaker 1>I you know, people have been nice to him because

0:54:26.960 --> 0:54:28.640
<v Speaker 1>he got benched, and I get that, but like he

0:54:28.760 --> 0:54:31.640
<v Speaker 1>missed Rhett Ellison on a wide open play down the

0:54:31.680 --> 0:54:33.799
<v Speaker 1>seam that could have been. That could have been bad

0:54:33.840 --> 0:54:35.560
<v Speaker 1>news for the Cowboys, like he hasn't had a good

0:54:35.640 --> 0:54:38.960
<v Speaker 1>year and he has no help whatsoever. And I know

0:54:39.040 --> 0:54:42.560
<v Speaker 1>that the Raiders have had arguably a more disappointing season

0:54:42.560 --> 0:54:45.480
<v Speaker 1>than the Cowboys have, but they they have better talent

0:54:45.600 --> 0:54:48.279
<v Speaker 1>around them than the Giants do. That's okay, guys, Well

0:54:48.400 --> 0:54:54.200
<v Speaker 1>let's take our final call. Jordan in Maryland. Helly, how's

0:54:54.200 --> 0:54:58.080
<v Speaker 1>it going, hey, George Journey? Um, okay, So I was

0:54:58.840 --> 0:55:05.800
<v Speaker 1>just the esp In playoff predicted today that if um,

0:55:05.840 --> 0:55:08.480
<v Speaker 1>if we were to finish ten and six with Carolina,

0:55:08.520 --> 0:55:13.040
<v Speaker 1>we would actually get that sixth seed over Carolina. So um.

0:55:13.920 --> 0:55:16.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'd probably rather have the Falcons lose and

0:55:17.080 --> 0:55:20.840
<v Speaker 1>finish nine and seven. But after after the win yesterday,

0:55:20.880 --> 0:55:22.319
<v Speaker 1>I just wanted to ask you, guys, how do you

0:55:22.360 --> 0:55:26.600
<v Speaker 1>feel about our playoff chances? And I'll hang up and listening.

0:55:27.239 --> 0:55:29.399
<v Speaker 1>I just have this feeling that if you go ten

0:55:29.440 --> 0:55:31.480
<v Speaker 1>and six, you're gonna get in. I just that's what

0:55:31.560 --> 0:55:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I think. Now. Losing to the Chargers and the Broncos

0:55:35.120 --> 0:55:39.920
<v Speaker 1>is going to help you playoff in this uh, coach Mora, Yes, um,

0:55:40.680 --> 0:55:44.320
<v Speaker 1>they're still in the hunt, but I think that because

0:55:44.600 --> 0:55:46.560
<v Speaker 1>if if you have to go ten and six, so

0:55:46.760 --> 0:55:48.440
<v Speaker 1>you have to just keep winning, and that's going to

0:55:48.480 --> 0:55:50.440
<v Speaker 1>be the hard part. It is just showing this kind

0:55:50.440 --> 0:55:52.719
<v Speaker 1>of consistency all year to beat the Raiders, to beat

0:55:52.760 --> 0:55:56.360
<v Speaker 1>the Eagles, to beat the Seahawks. Um, but that happens,

0:55:56.760 --> 0:55:58.600
<v Speaker 1>You're going to be eight and four in the in

0:55:58.680 --> 0:56:02.359
<v Speaker 1>the conference, and I think that'll get you. That will

0:56:02.400 --> 0:56:04.279
<v Speaker 1>help because if you get into a tie or maybe

0:56:04.280 --> 0:56:06.840
<v Speaker 1>even a three way tie, you know, an eight and

0:56:06.880 --> 0:56:09.040
<v Speaker 1>four record in the conference will help you. Am I

0:56:09.040 --> 0:56:11.680
<v Speaker 1>doing my math right there? It's gotta be twelve games

0:56:11.719 --> 0:56:13.839
<v Speaker 1>you play four in the West, and yeah, you gotta

0:56:13.880 --> 0:56:16.279
<v Speaker 1>beat the you gotta beat Oakland, so you know, so

0:56:16.360 --> 0:56:19.360
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't matter. But you're losing those two games. Yeah, Actually,

0:56:19.520 --> 0:56:21.600
<v Speaker 1>that's a great point, and that's I guess My main

0:56:21.680 --> 0:56:26.200
<v Speaker 1>thing is I don't think this team is good enough

0:56:26.280 --> 0:56:28.799
<v Speaker 1>to win the next three games in a row, two

0:56:28.840 --> 0:56:31.520
<v Speaker 1>on the road. The nicest part about that is they're

0:56:31.520 --> 0:56:34.319
<v Speaker 1>only gonna be this team for one more game. They

0:56:34.360 --> 0:56:37.719
<v Speaker 1>get Zeke back against Seattle and Philly and then I mean,

0:56:37.760 --> 0:56:39.560
<v Speaker 1>there's no talent what they could do. They looked pretty

0:56:39.600 --> 0:56:41.960
<v Speaker 1>damn good. I know, he'll have been gone for six weeks,

0:56:42.000 --> 0:56:45.000
<v Speaker 1>but there's at least reason for optimism that they can

0:56:45.040 --> 0:56:49.640
<v Speaker 1>play at the level we saw with him back. So, like,

0:56:49.840 --> 0:56:51.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, I kept saying, it's a two game season.

0:56:51.560 --> 0:56:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Now it's a one game season. You go to Oakland

0:56:54.040 --> 0:56:55.880
<v Speaker 1>if you can get a win there. You know, we

0:56:55.960 --> 0:56:58.240
<v Speaker 1>mentioned it at the top of the show. The Vikings

0:56:58.239 --> 0:57:00.120
<v Speaker 1>still have to play the Packers. The Packers still to

0:57:00.120 --> 0:57:02.080
<v Speaker 1>play the Lions. The Falcons are playing the Saints and

0:57:02.120 --> 0:57:04.719
<v Speaker 1>the Panthers. The Panthers are playing the Packers, like the

0:57:04.800 --> 0:57:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Seahawks are playing the Rams. I don't know for sure

0:57:07.719 --> 0:57:09.759
<v Speaker 1>that it'll all break the way the Cowboys needed to

0:57:11.080 --> 0:57:13.640
<v Speaker 1>five three eight. The ESPN company gives them a four

0:57:13.680 --> 0:57:16.320
<v Speaker 1>percent chance as it stands right now. That's not great,

0:57:16.960 --> 0:57:19.920
<v Speaker 1>but there's enough stuff going on to give me optimism

0:57:19.960 --> 0:57:24.160
<v Speaker 1>that it can happen. Um And so they just, you know,

0:57:24.320 --> 0:57:25.880
<v Speaker 1>they got to find a way to win this game,

0:57:25.920 --> 0:57:27.920
<v Speaker 1>and then I think all bets are off. I think

0:57:27.960 --> 0:57:29.600
<v Speaker 1>all bets are off if they can beat the Raiders.

0:57:29.640 --> 0:57:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if they can. I haven't looked at

0:57:31.360 --> 0:57:33.600
<v Speaker 1>the Raiders yet, but if they can do that, they

0:57:33.640 --> 0:57:38.160
<v Speaker 1>get Zeke back and it's anybody's game. Well, I'll definitely

0:57:38.240 --> 0:57:41.320
<v Speaker 1>be interesting. You know who's not coming back though yet?

0:57:41.640 --> 0:57:49.320
<v Speaker 1>No Deerk damn yeah tomorrow but a week. But we

0:57:49.560 --> 0:57:54.960
<v Speaker 1>will be back tomorrow live from as WBC Mortgage Studio.
