Speaker 1: or the radio up at thirty eight thousand feet? Vicky

17
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: was on Wi Fi on the Internet and saw breaking news.

18
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: So who who reported it? Internet? On the plane? What

19
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: that's new? That's k Garrison. We usually don't have internet

20
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: on the plane. So that's nice. The ship, well, things

21

Speaker 1: have moved up here greatly. So who stood up and

22
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: made the announcement to the plane the Cowboys flying back

23
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: from Washington, DC, that a trade had been made. It

24
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: took a little hang on, It took a little It

25
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,399

31
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: all right. Was a lot of people were asleep because

32
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: it was obviously they played a game the night before

33
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: early morning for that museum trip, which is great. Uh huh.

34
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, it took a little doing to get that thing.

35
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: Mickey didn't stuck in the gallus. You guys act like

36
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: the flight attendant up front, Susan goes attention, attention, please.

37
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: The Dallas Cowboys have just traded for Amari Cooper, and

38
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: one of you poor guys on his flight is not

39
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: gonna have a job tomorrow. And he found out right

40
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: when he got off the flight yeah. Actually, all right,

41
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 1: so the trade has been made. Amari Cooper is yeah,

42
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: headed to Dallas to become a Dallas Cowboy, and the

43
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 1: Cowboys give up their first round draft pick in two

44
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: thousand nineteen. And so we want to start going around

45
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 1: the horn. Your first reaction when you heard the news,

46
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: let's go to Brian. Brian, you know, did all this matter?

47
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: In fact, we should point out Brian in the last

48
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: twenty four hours has now gone back and looked at

49
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: every single Lamari Cooper place. He was Teddy Bridgewaters primary

50
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: receiver at Northwestern High School in Miami. You deserve the

51
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: first word with that one. I'll tell you what though,

52
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: thank you for the first word. The thing that I

53
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: was in, I you know, you look at my first

54
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: thought was good, good this, you know, you know, I've

55
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: just got to the point now where I'm thinking, Okay,

56
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: the is this wide receiver by committee? You have one

57
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: guy that's really really playing well, you have one guy

58
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 1: that's trying to emerge. Okay, let's go try and find

59
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: a way to help this quarterback. Let's go try and

60
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: find a way to evaluate him better before you have

61
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: to give up twenty million dollars a year to see

62
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: if he can play or not. You know, why don't

63
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: you give him some weapons. Why don't you allow him

64
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: maybe to make a throw or two where it's a

65
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: contested ball and HiT's gonna be caught, or there's gonna

66
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: be a big play, or there's gonna be a big

67
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: run after the catch. You know, go out and try

68
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: and make a difference here. And I think that to

69
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: me when you look at your football team and you say, okay,

70
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: where are we deficient? Mickey's been very adamant about the

71
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: offensive that's been a big problem. But you look at

72
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: this receiving corp. It has not been good enough. And

73
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: so when you sit down and you evaluate it and

74
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,119
Speaker 1: you say, what's the best way that we can help

75
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: this receiving corps right now? It is to add a

76
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: player that is a dynamic player, like a Marii Cooper.

77
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: That is that now. If it works out, great, you

78
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: have the evaluation you have a great player in a

79
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: Mariy Cooper. If it doesn't work out, it's probably because

80
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: of a the offensive line didn't protect well enough, be

81
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 1: your quarterback can't make throws. You're going to figure this

82
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: out real fast. Now, it's not about Okay, blame Dak

83
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: or blame the lack of talent on the outside at

84
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: wide receiver. This is that you went out and got

85
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: a legitimate football player. You had to pay a premium

86
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: price to do it. He's a young player. He will

87
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 1: come in here and he will be a difference, a

88
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: different player than what you have, and that's exactly what

89
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: this offense needs. Rob Phillips, two things for me, if

90
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: you want to argue that it's a good trade and

91
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: see both sides of it. He's twenty four years old

92
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 1: compared to the guys that are coming out of the

93
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 1: draft next year, and you guys are gonna have a

94
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: draft show later this week players right now, compared to

95
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: the receivers that top receivers that will be available, he's

96
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: not much older. And he's got four years in the league.

97
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: This is his fourth year. They think he's on the

98
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: up rise. So you're not trading for a thirty something

99
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: wide receiver to help. You're still trading for a young guy, yes,

100
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: and you have him at least for a year and

101
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 1: a half. The other thing is I appreciate this front

102
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: office saying they haven't said it, but actions speak louder

103
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: than words. This committee hasn't worked. Its wide receiver committee

104
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: has not worked. Now they've spread the snaps around pretty evenly.

105
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,919
Speaker 1: So these guys aren't going to have major production, I

106
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: don't think. But again, one guy could have risen to

107
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 1: the top, and so far it's been Cole Beasley. The

108
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: three guys they've brought in Hearns, Thompson, Austin who's injured,

109
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: thirty two catches, three hundred ninety one yards, three touchdowns.

110
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: The next two leading receivers after Cole are you're running

111
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: back and you're tight end. They haven't gotten a lot

112
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: of production out of the wide receiver position. There's no

113
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 1: question about that. My question about this trade for as

114
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: much as you're giving up in a first round pick

115
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: that's high value, I mean that that is a premium

116
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: that's the lifeblood of your team, is your draft. I

117
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: just is he going to make a big enough difference

118
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: down the stretch, because particularly on the road for me,

119
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: because you know, I think we all thought they'd play

120
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: more efficiently this past week in Washington. The matchups seem

121
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: better for them, and again they they haven't been able

122
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: to function well offensively. And I'm with Mickey, it starts

123
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: up front. There are other things besides the wide receivers

124
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: that need to be better and be more consistent for

125
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: this passing game to have success, and we haven't seen it.

126
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 1: And we'll bring in one really talented wide receiver make

127
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: that much of a difference. We'll see Vicky Spagnola. I

128
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: like the talent acquisition. I wish they could have done

129
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: it for a second round pick, not to first round pick,

130
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: because there'll be a point next year when you're in

131
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: April and you're sitting there going, boy, I really need

132
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: to fix this and you're not going to be able

133
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: to fix it with the first round pick. But having

134
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: said that, I guess if you're gonna get something good,

135
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: you got to give up something good. And uh, they

136
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: at least took the step going forward, Uh, sort of

137
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: admitted that this committee thing is not working out the

138
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: way it needs to and if nothing else, this guy's

139
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: going to command the tension from posing defenses and no

140
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: longer are they going to be dropping safeties in the

141
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: box and saying, Zeke, you know what, you're not beating me, Zeke.

142
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: The last two road games had thirty five carries for

143
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: eighty eight yards. That's not even three yards to carry. Yeah,

144
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: he's better than that. Right. The offensive line struggles, but

145
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: not that bad. Defenses are saying, you're gonna have to

146
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: beat me throwing the ball. Well, now they've got a

147
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: second thought coming when this guy, I don't know what

148
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: number he's gonna have, number nineteen. Yeah, they're gonna look

149
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: out there, you know what, I better keep an eye

150
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: on number nineteen. Then, yeah, and so, and aren't you

151
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: glad that you ended up with a bigger need than

152
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: using that first round pick for a free safety, because

153
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: had you done that, you're not trading for this guy.

154
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: I don't know a lot of people of initial reaction

155
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: is they think Joey Galloway. They think Roy Williams. Eighteen

156
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: years ago, the Cowboys, of course, gave up two number

157
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: ones for Joey Galloway, which was a twenty nine year

158
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: old Joey Gage mistake. Yes, ten years ago, they gave

159
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: up what essentially was a first and a third. They

160
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: also gave up a sixth and got back a seventh.

161
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: But let's say a first and a third for Roy Williams,

162
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 1: who was twenty seven years old, And now they're giving

163
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 1: up one number one for a twenty four year old

164
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: who just turned twenty four in June. In Amari Cooper,

165
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: I think that they had made up their mind after

166
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: watching seven games this year they were going to have

167
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: to use a first round draft pick on a wide

168
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: receiver up or they would have to sign one in

169
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: free agent, see exactly. And if they decide that, you know,

170
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: we got a mid round first round draft pick based

171
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: on our early projections of the receivers coming out. Nobody's

172
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: gonna be better than this guy, I mean Calvin Ridley.

173
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 1: And he's about Calvin Ridley's age. Hell yeah, how much? Yeah,

174
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley was an older guy too in this draft,

175
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken. So there were some questions about that. Now,

176
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,679
Speaker 1: look on what you said about the previous trades. The

177
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: Roy Williams trade was a bad one and the bad

178
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 1: The bad part of it, though, was they paid him

179
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: all that money because they had to redo his contract

180
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: right away too. I don't know if he played a

181
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: game before they redid the deal and gave him that.

182
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: It was part of it was part of the deal,

183
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: the trade. Yeah, and I know you don't give up

184
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: two first round picks for one player, all right, we

185
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 1: were stupid, Mickey, But he got hurt the first game,

186
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: all right, and he only played what another year year

187
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: or two years years without a quarterback? Yeah, by the way,

188
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,199
Speaker 1: and then he left. They traded him to Tampa Bay

189
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: or do they cut him? I think they traded him

190
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: to Tampa Bay. And he had consecutive one thousand yard

191
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: receiving seasons. Yeah, so you know, you got this guy

192
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: for Troy Aikman, and then Troy Aikman is injured, he

193
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 1: gets injured, and then there's no Troy Aikman in two

194
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: thousand and one for Joey Galloway. By the way. On

195
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley, he turns twenty four in December, there you go,

196
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: and Amari Cooper turned twenty four in June. Yeah, so

197
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 1: six months difference in age. Cooper's six months older than

198
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley. And you know what everybody's looking at next year?

199
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: Fourteen million. Yeah, And that's the other thing I wanted

200
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: to point out. The Raiders picked up his fifth year option,

201
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: and so he is due thirteen point nine million dollars

202
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: next year. Okay, but they're only paying four hundred thousand

203
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: this year, so they're looking at it as a two

204
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: year fourteen point four million dollars deal. Yeah, So for

205
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: if it's a top flight wide receiver and he plays

206
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: like that, then it's a steal for two years. But

207
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: having spent a first round pick on him, they are

208
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: I would imagine they are looking at him as being

209
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: a long term cornerstone player for this team. Now he's

210
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: Garrett said that this morning. Basically better hope so, because

211
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: they use their first round picks on those cornerstone players.

212
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: The difference being this is one that you're going to

213
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: spend a lot of money on salary wise, even after

214
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: the thirteen point nine million next year. But they need

215
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: that wide receiver. And now the whole question is going

216
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: to be is he the same receiver that everyone thought

217
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: he was when he was the fourth pick in the

218
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 1: draft four years ago and was a Pro bowler. I

219
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: think this is going to be a great move for him.

220
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: I really do. And again I'm I'm I'm saying this

221
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: because I think he gets out of a situation in

222
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: Oakland that you know clearly that the head coach didn't

223
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 1: want him there. Okay, he comes to an organization here. Now, yes,

224
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: you have some things at quarterback, you have some issues

225
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: at quarterback, but he's going to have every opportunity to

226
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: be the featured guy. And the one thing he's proven

227
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: out is when he's been able to be the featured guy,

228
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 1: he's been able to have some success. So I think

229
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: the talent is still there. I think the ability is

230
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: still there. I think the desire, you know. I mean,

231
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: there were some questions and one of my best friends,

232
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: Michael Lombardi in the league, said, hey, there's some questions

233
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: about whether this guy really loves football. You could watch

234
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: the tape and watch him run the football and tell

235
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: that he likes to play football. You can get that

236
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,319
Speaker 1: and some of the drops that he had, or him

237
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: trying to catch the football and get up the field

238
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: as fast as he can. Yeah, and there's a report

239
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: today about the Raiders and Derek Carr and a fractured

240
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: relationship in the locker room. I don't know if Derek

241
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: Carr has been the same guy the last couple has neither. So,

242
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: you know, it's not just the wide receivers in terms

243
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: of trying to make plays and putting the same numbers

244
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: up the reference. But he had a thousand yards season

245
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: each of his first two seasons in the league. So

246
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: the thing that jumps out at me and I haven't

247
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: watched nearly as much as Brian has. For sure his

248
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 1: catch radius. He will go up and make tough catches.

249
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: And we saw it again in the Washington game. Dak

250
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 1: is putting balls in play that can be caught and

251
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: they're not all caught, and they're catchable balls, and quarterbacks

252
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: need that. All quarterbacks need that. M Deshaun Watson got

253
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: it in an overtime at Houston from his top receiver.

254
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,839
Speaker 1: That's that's what they need. When these games that are

255
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: this close and one or two plays makes the difference.

256
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,599
Speaker 1: Maybe this this guy can be the differences. He's a

257
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,079
Speaker 1: number one wide receiver. But what I saw is a

258
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: number one wider re saiver. And you think Jerry believes

259
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: he's a number one absolute absolutely. Jerry definition that he

260
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: gave last week of being a number one wide receiver

261
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: was there's basically a handful of guys he considers number

262
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: one wide receiver. Give a number one mentioned Hilio Jones,

263
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins. Yeah, you give a first round pick, you

264
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: think of guy's the number one wide Yeah you're not.

265
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: You're not messing around here, you know. And again I

266
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 1: applaud them because there's so many times that we sit

267
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: there and everybody out there says, oh, they don't do nothing,

268
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: they don't do anything. Oh why how can they make

269
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 1: that trade? And we can't make that trade? And then

270
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 1: when you make the trade, when you're a little bold

271
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: on making the trade, then you're like, oh, I wouldn't

272
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: have given that. You know, I don't subscribe to that

273
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: at all. I talked to general manager friends last night.

274
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: They were like, going, you know, I wouldn't have given

275
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: it up. I'm like, I'm like, yeah, you know why

276
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have given up Because you're afraid you're gonna

277
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: lose your job. That's why you don't do that. You know,

278
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: everybody wants to. I applaud people that want to be

279
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: bold and try and do things. I really do. When

280
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 1: you see something as a problem and you try to

281
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: go fix it, you know, if it works, great, he

282
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: fixed it. If it doesn't work, then you figure it out.

283
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: It's it's the quarterback, it's the receiver. It's now you

284
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: start figuring out why. You know, don't don't just sit

285
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 1: there on your hands and let this thing just continue

286
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: without a rudder, you know, go find a way to

287
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: try and make it better and I think they made

288
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: this football team better. They had to sacrifice something to

289
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: get a player that can help them make better. I

290
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: think it's funny the people that are critical. We're all

291
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: for paying whatever they wanted for Earl Thomas, and now

292
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: that you do this, that was me. I'm not critical

293
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: to get this guy. It's like, well, what are you doing?

294
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: You can't do that? Yeah, you know which would be

295
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: a better fixed the wide receiver or the free safety

296
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: from what we've seen, and I go back to it

297
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: could have been easy for the front office to just

298
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: not basically admit that their direction didn't work. You know,

299
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: that's that's an admission of we tried something. From a

300
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 1: personnel standpoint, they parted ways with Dez Bryant. They haven't

301
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: found the production outside of Cole Beasley at the wide

302
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: receiver position around him, and they're trying to do something

303
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: about it. Mid season. They look at the standings and say,

304
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: all right, we lost this close game, but we still

305
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: have four division games left. We're tied for second place.

306
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: We gotta buy We got an extra week to bring

307
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: this guy in and get him up to speed. Let's go,

308
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: let's go win this division. I mean, I absolutely credit

309
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: them for at least trying to do that. We'll find

310
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: out if if they gave up too much, but this

311
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: was probably the most glaring need on their roster right now.

312
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: You find out, though, really about this quarterback you find

313
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: out about him is it is it the fact that

314
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: they made the decision for a committee hurting his development?

315
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: That is that, you know, That's what you're gonna find out,

316
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: because if this guy, this guy has the ability to

317
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: get open, he has the ability to go make plays.

318
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: If they can't get him going, and it's because of

319
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: the quarterback, then you've saved yourself a long term of

320
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: paying this guy one hundred million dollars or so. It's

321
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: gonna be worth it to give up that that draft

322
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: pick in the first round to figure out what this

323
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: quarterback really is. You know. One of the things I

324
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: forget that, Yeah, for sure, we talk about the reports

325
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: that he doesn't have the desire to play or whatever.

326
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: One of the things that and I didn't know a

327
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: whole lot about him until just starting to research him

328
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: here in the last twenty four hours. He's not his

329
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: personality as such, He's not the type. He's not a

330
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: real outgoing type. He didn't love the cameras. He's kind

331
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: of a quiet guy, which I think he could mesh

332
00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: very well with Dak Prescott, who has that leadership quality.

333
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: I think Dak takes him under his arm a little bit.

334
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: But the Cowboys have terrific knowledge about this player on

335
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: their own coaching staff here with Doug nuss Meyer having

336
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 1: done the offensive coordinator at Alabama, yes, when Amari Cooper

337
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,919
Speaker 1: was there. Scott Lenahan is very close with Todd Downing,

338
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: who was the offensive coordinator and before that the quarterbacks

339
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 1: coach with the Raiders, I'm sure, and he's now the

340
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: tight ends coach in Minnesota. I'm not saying that he

341
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 1: had consulted with Todd Downing, oh he did, but he

342
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 1: has heard the good things I'm sure that Downing has

343
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: said about Cooper over the last four years. And so

344
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: they in their relationship with the Alabama coaching staff absolutely

345
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: where they feel very good about what type of person

346
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: that Amari Cooper is. Might be refreshing that he's not

347
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: your normal wide receipt. Now that's right, that's true. Yeah, yeah,

348
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: So go do your job, all right. What do you

349
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 1: think was the tipping point on Jerry and Stephen and

350
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: the organization deciding, okay, we need to go ahead and

351
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 1: do this right now. On the heels of that game

352
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: in Washington on Sunday, thirty five carries for eighty eight yards. Oh,

353
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: I mean, you look into deep in the fourth quarter

354
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: and they've got ten points once again on the road,

355
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: struggling to make things work, and they got a couple

356
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: of late drives going almost brought themselves back into that game.

357
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: But again, it's a struggle in the passing game, particularly

358
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: on the road. And I'm the one who said last week,

359
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: can you bring in another guy to add to this?

360
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: Is it gonna work? Maybe Michael Gallup just needs to

361
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: be more involved than he is, sort of getting more

362
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: involved and that's really encouraging, but clearly they felt like

363
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: it we needed more more if we're gonna go try

364
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: to win. Basically needs a little help out there too.

365
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: And Michael Gallup is doing I think the best he

366
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: can and I'm all four keep throwing him the ball five, six,

367
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: seven times a game, because if he comes up with

368
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: four plays, you know, this kid's finding ways to get open.

369
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: I mean he is. If he could just keep running

370
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 1: the routes the way he is and keep finishing the

371
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: way they'll get him the football. But I'm like I said,

372
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 1: I you look at this and you have to say

373
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: enough enough. I'm getting tired of why and Thompson hit

374
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: the ball, hit between the one and the five on

375
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: his chest. You know, I'm getting tired of some of

376
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: the things that I'm seeing, you know, a third and

377
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: a third down play and Alan Herns drops the ball

378
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: which would have been a first down. I'm getting tired

379
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: of that. I need somebody to go out there and

380
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: make a play for me other than Cole Beasley. I'll

381
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: tell you another thing ahead, Robin Well and look Tabon.

382
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: Austin's part of this thinking too, because I don't know

383
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: when he's coming back. You know. They said wouldn't count

384
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 1: on it. They said no surgery at this point, you know,

385
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: but this could be a several week thing. Probably will be.

386
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: And that's a guy that they haven't featured a lot.

387
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: But in terms of speed and potential game breaking ability,

388
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: you don't have him, then that's another piece that you're

389
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: missing offensively. So they just keep wishing there. Well, yeah,

390
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,679
Speaker 1: keep I keep wishing out five to six weeks. And

391
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: that's the that's the meteor schedule. Trying to make a

392
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: run here, Cooper, Gallop Beasley, that better be the committee.

393
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 1: There you go, He's right about that. You know again,

394
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna figure this out real fast. We're gonna figure

395
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: this out because it's gonna it's it's it's either gonna

396
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 1: work with this guy starts to make some plays and

397
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: helps this offense and they score more points, or it's

398
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: gonna go it's gonna go south, and then it's gonna

399
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: be Okay, what do we need to do now? Then

400
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,719
Speaker 1: it's now on the front office, then it's now. Then

401
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: they have to look at themselves and say, okay, we

402
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: tried this, what do we need to do now? You say, oh, well,

403
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: they don't have a first round pick. Now, well, okay,

404
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: you do have cap space. You do have ways to

405
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 1: go out and manipulate some things, you know, and do

406
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 1: some of the things. You still have the draft to

407
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: work on as well. But they but they you will

408
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: figure out really what needs to be done offensively by

409
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,239
Speaker 1: the end of the season. I promise you that. All right,

410
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a break here and in a moment

411
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: we come back. And the effect that Amari Cooper might

412
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: have on this coaching staff and on the game management

413
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,560

00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: on this big trade the Cowboys mate eight eight eight

460
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: eight five two nine seven. But all right. The effect

461
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: that Amari Cooper has on this offense, you touched on

462
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: it a little bit, The effect it has on this

463
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: coaching staff going forward, What do you think with nine

464
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 1: games left in this season, and before we get into

465
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: the big picture of that, I think it will have

466
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 1: an effect on the way Jason Garrett approaches the end

467
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: of games, because I think it's going to have an

468
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: effect on this offense. And I think, as we touched

469
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: on yesterday a little bit, I think he hasn't had

470
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: confidence in his offense to be able to score a

471
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 1: touchdown in the last minute of a game at Washington

472
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: in order to get a yard in Houston, whatever, and

473
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: he felt like the defense was the strength of the

474
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: team in that situation, and that's why he'd elected to

475
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: punt in overtime. And I think it just opens up

476
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,199
Speaker 1: It has the potential of opening up things on this

477
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: offense where he will be more aggressive in his approach

478
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: at the end of games. What do y'all think? I

479
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,400
Speaker 1: totally agree. I was thinking about writing about that later

480
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 1: today actually, because you can point back to that last

481
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: drive and say, yeah, where was his confidence level on

482
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: his team? Now you can agree or disagree with the

483
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 1: decision to kind of play for that field goal, but

484
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 1: maybe if you have a again, a true number one,

485
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 1: you're a little more aggressive in that situation with a

486
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: time out in your back pocket. What I'm getting at,

487
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: I guess a little bit, is what effect does it

488
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 1: also have on the offensive line. Okay, you had a

489
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 1: weapon and you've got more opportunities offensively. Maybe they're not

490
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: putting it in the box from kay because they've got

491
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: to bring a safety over to account for the speed

492
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: factor that Amari Cooper has on one side, and you're

493
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: looking into a situation where you're in field goal range

494
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: and you don't make the extra plays to try to

495
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: get further down field because you're afraid you're going to

496
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: get a holding penalty and knock yourself out of field

497
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 1: goal range, which I think was a factor in why

498
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: they settled for kicking a forty seven yard field goal

499
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:21,360
Speaker 1: At the end of the game. No one considers the downside.

500
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: With twelve seconds to go, you're at the what twenty

501
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: eight yard line? Thirty one yard line? Excuse me, yeah,

502
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 1: thirty one yard twelve seconds. Okaya, your quarterback had already

503
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: been sacked four times, it had been hit nine times,

504
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: fumbled twice, and they had three holding penalties in a

505
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: chop block. So four penalties on the offensive line, one

506
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: bad play, and now you're not you're kicking a sixty

507
00:25:55,359 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: yard field goal. No one considers that. Everybody, Oh yeah,

508
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: let's throw the ball into the end zone. Well, who

509
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: are you throwing it too? Who do you trust? Who

510
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 1: do you trust? The ball is not going to bounce

511
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 1: off their hands and get intercepted. You know, there there's

512
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 1: a downside. And do you think they were if they

513
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,400
Speaker 1: lined up like they were going to throw the ball,

514
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 1: that those safeties weren't going to drop off, They would

515
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: have said, okay, you know, catch the ball. Underneath, we'll

516
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: tackle you. Well, what if he had to scramble around?

517
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 1: How many times did that happen? And there it goes

518
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: your twelve seconds. So I don't know who you're trusting

519
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 1: to throw it too. Either. By the way, I think

520
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 1: that's the bigger question. I think you know that it

521
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 1: you know. To me, I look at the situation though

522
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: you did have Cole Beasley available, because they lose Fabian

523
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: Moreau on the miraculous catch that Beasley makes on third down,

524
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: you just gotten hurt. He got hurt, so now you're

525
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 1: kind of they're a little bit compromised there. So I

526
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: can understand if if you wanted to play with Cole

527
00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: Beasley as your featured guy. The one thing I will

528
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: say is the protection managed to hold up better in

529
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: those last two drives. It wasn't great, but you know,

530
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,479
Speaker 1: and I know Prescott had to run a couple of times,

531
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: but I think that was run by his own want

532
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: to just try and make a play. But I think

533
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 1: that to me, it's this guy clearly is going to

534
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 1: help you at the end of games because he is

535
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 1: gonna get it's going to give you another option to

536
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: throw to. You're gone. Numbers He's gonna give you a

537
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: guy that can can can go get the football. He

538
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 1: got another guy in Cole Beasley that could go get

539
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: the football. Before you just had one guy that can

540
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: get the football and of the field and so you're

541
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,679
Speaker 1: taking twenty two seconds in between plays. This guy is

542
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: better than Alan Hearns when it comes to getting down

543
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: the field. Alan Hearns takes forever to get down the

544
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: field and then and that maybe that helps you in

545
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 1: pass protection because he's not having to hold the ball

546
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: to wait for Alan Hearns to clear outs. So yeah,

547
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 1: I think that you know to to your point this

548
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: is it helps you with a big time player on

549
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: the outside that's capable of playing in a very small

550
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: area too. This guy's a good small area player. The

551
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: closer you get the end zone, the better this guy plays.

552
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: So I'm all for that. Anything to do to get that,

553
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 1: like say, to help the quarterback to give him more

554
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 1: options and to potentially score more points touchdowns not field

555
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 1: goals and things like that. But to end the game,

556
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 1: you know, you need a guy that can go get

557
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: it and make plays. And this guy's capable of doing

558
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 1: that is Cole Beasley, and hopefully the development of the

559
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,639
Speaker 1: Michael Gallop will be the same way. Now you've got

560
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 1: you got three guys in the field that can actually

561
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: run Beasley with his quickness, Gallop can separate and then

562
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper can surely get down the field and separate two.

563
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,719
Speaker 1: So that helps at least to get the ball out

564
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 1: quick enough and in the two minute offense. And yesterday

565
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: we pulled up Aaron Rodgers against the Cowboys when he

566
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 1: last year in the last minute where he matriculated down

567
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: the field whatever and scored the touchdown. There was he

568
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: did it a couple of weeks ago, but we just compared, Okay,

569
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: how much time does it take for Aaron Rodgers to

570
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 1: work at two minut at drill? Well, he completes a

571
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: pass to Martella's been it in that game and if

572
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: you look at the play by play, it took twenty

573
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: two seconds because it got caught in bounds for them

574
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: to run the next play, just like it did with

575
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: the Cowboys after they completed the pass with whatever, went

576
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: from fifty two to twenty eight before they snap the

577
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: ball again. Well, the difference that Rogers has is he's

578
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: got receivers on the outside. He can throw outside the

579
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: numbers they get out of bounds, and now you're running

580
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: plays every six seconds instead of your only receiver that

581
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: you have any confidence in being Cole Beasley, who works

582
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: the middle of the field, And now you got to

583
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: clock it every time that you've complete a pass, and

584
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: you lose your opportunities in terms of downs to be

585
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: able to move the football. You said it, I mean

586
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: nothing more to add to that. You're absolutely right. It's

587
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 1: just one more weapon, one more weapon. Yeah, wait to

588
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 1: Terrence Williams returns, throwing some sarcasm at the end too.

589
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: All right, as far as the the bigger picture of

590
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: the coaching staff, all right, they've added this receiver. There

591
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: are there no excuses now the rest of the way

592
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: this year. I think it depends out that plays. Yeah,

593
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: you're assuming you're getting Amrie Cooper from the previous two years, right,

594
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: I'm not, okay, not what I'm assuming. It's what Jerry

595
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: is assuming. Yeah, okay, but how are you going to

596
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 1: get it? I wouldn't say you've invested in it now.

597
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say no more excuses because, again, especially when

598
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: they're not at home, the upfront has to be better.

599
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: They've got the numbers still prove it out. If Ezekiel

600
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 1: Elliott isn't running the ball, well they're not going to

601
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 1: win the game. And it may not matter who. You know,

602
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: Dez Bryant was still drawn attention last year. I think

603
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: when Brian said in our podcast yesterday, you know, Martin

604
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: Cooper is a better football player than Dez Bryant was

605
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: last year. But you still had a guy that could

606
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: threaten defenses last year in Dez, and teams were kind

607
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: of plaining the same way down the stretch. So and

608
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: a lot of that had to do with protection up front.

609
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: The protection has to be better. That's you can have

610
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 1: receivers running routes all day long, but if Dak's getting

611
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: hit and hit and having to go into medical tent

612
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: for you know, a potential concussion as he scrambling around,

613
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: you're not going to be as efficient as you need

614
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: to be. And so there's other part. I guess that's

615
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: my question about this trade is there's I don't feel

616
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 1: like they're one player or a way right now. I

617
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: think there's more that's got to be fixed with this

618
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: offense Before you say, hey, all they gotta do is

619
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,959
Speaker 1: get a receiver and they're good to go. They need

620
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: to go get a tight end. Now, well, we'll see

621
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: what Swain's injury situation is. Yeah, he's got an extra. Yeah,

622
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: all four were actives. Would you say it was Mickey

623
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 1: a bruise? It looked like it was. He thought it

624
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 1: was a bruise. He said, I got hit on the knee.

625
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: So he didn't say that's encouraging. Yeah, he you know,

626
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: it was a ligament or anything. And I could see

627
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 1: his knee and swallowing up. And he was supposed to

628
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: get an MRI probably today or after. He walked around

629
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 1: that end. But he walked around the museum. He was there.

630
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 1: He went up the steps to the Lincoln Memorial for

631
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: the picture. So hey, he just put some tape on

632
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: the play guy. Though he is a guy. He is

633
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 1: a tough guy. Those guys were coming up the steps,

634
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: Taco Dragon. It's like, come on, you're twenty four years

635
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 1: old or whatever. Really, I'm tired. Really, yeah, did you

636
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: play the football game? Did you play the day before?

637
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 1: H did you play the day before? Hey, I'm forty

638
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: years older than he is. Doesn't compare no problems walking

639
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: up the steps? Can I can I finish your point

640
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: for YouTube? Right? You know? I think that there's I

641
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: think that everything will be evaluated at the end. I

642
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: think that the decision the front office will have to

643
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: look at themselves for what the decisions they made earlier

644
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: in the season. I think they'll have to be evaluated

645
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: for the decisions they're made right now. They're they're trying

646
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: their best to not just sit on their hands, like

647
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: I said, and make a make a bold call to

648
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: make this work. I think they're trying to help the quarterback.

649
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to help the head coach and

650
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator as well. I think they're trying to

651
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 1: more importantly help the running back so he can have

652
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 1: an opportunity. They can't be as one dimensional as they

653
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: are because we've seen what happens there. So you know,

654
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,719
Speaker 1: this is one of those things that you know as

655
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 1: a coaching staff, you know, Okay, management made a bold

656
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 1: move for us to try and win games. We have

657
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 1: to do our very best to try and win those games.

658
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: So whatever game plans that they can come up. You know,

659
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 1: there's been some times where I think they've done a

660
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: great job, you know, putting players in position to make plays.

661
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: Just haven't had guys make a lot of plays. Maybe

662
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 1: that's why you go out and add Amari Cooper because

663
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: you're tired of watching guys not make plays when you

664
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: get them set up. Now, have they had their faults

665
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: or absolutely have had their faults. But this is an evaluation,

666
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: an ongoing evaluation. I don't think anything's changed. I don't

667
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: think anything. I don't think it's any more pressure or

668
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: any more or less pressure. I just think it's like, Okay,

669
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: this is what we have to do right now to

670
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: see if we can if we can turn this around

671
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 1: to having some some offensive success. And if they don't

672
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, then they're going to

673
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: have to say, all right, this didn't work. This didn't work,

674
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: this didn't work. And then that's where you go, as

675
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 1: a general manager or on office. You go and say, Okay,

676
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: we need to fix all these things. And I can

677
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: hear people right now in my ears saying, well, the

678
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: general manager needs to be fixed, you know, I can

679
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: I can hear that. Okay, it's not going to happen

680
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: that way. It's just not. So you know, whatever you

681
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: have to do to make this work, you know, figure

682
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: it out. Here's a question I have, and Bill, you

683
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: brought this up last week, and I thought it was

684
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: a good point because we were talking about the opportunity

685
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 1: possibility of trading for a wide receiver. They play Tennessee

686
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: out of the bye and then they play Philly on

687
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: the road, and that starts a stretch of four games

688
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: in eighteen days, and that's you know, that's a lot

689
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: packed into a month. Do you feel like a veteran

690
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 1: receiver like Cooper can come in and you know, pick

691
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: this thing up and there won't be a transition. Keep

692
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: it and keep in mind the schedule because a lot

693
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: of people think, well, they got the bye week this week,

694
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: and then Nick, well here's the schedule this week. They're

695
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,760
Speaker 1: practicing for one hour tomorrow and one hour on Thursday

696
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,760
Speaker 1: and then they're off all weekend. Yeah, the Maori Cooper

697
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 1: will stay around and try and think, now, let's he's

698
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: coming in today. Yeah, what to your point, Bill, what

699
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: you said about he's in Scotland Hahn's system. If you

700
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: look at what you know Downing and those guys, yeah,

701
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: he's been and then you know that that's where Doug

702
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: Nusmar knows the player, and then you get you know

703
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 1: the fact that this guy has started played through his

704
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: early part of his career. This new system with grew

705
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 1: and I mean three years prior to that he was

706
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: playing in Scotland. Hahn's system basically is what he was doing.

707
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: So I don't think this learning curve is going to

708
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 1: be huge for this guy. And I think I just

709
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 1: I just see this as being a where he gets

710
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 1: out of Oakland, a very toxic situation there right now,

711
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: where that locker room clearly is looking at each other

712
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 1: and saying, Okay, who's next, Who's next? You know, that

713
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: is a hard way to operate. Here, he comes, it's

714
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: a second chance, it's an opportunity, you know, to come

715
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: in here and be a number one receiver, which he

716
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: can be. And this team is playing for something still,

717
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: even though he's three and four. Absolutely, if he can play,

718
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: he can play. There's no question. I don't want to hear.

719
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 1: Oh we're not on the same page. Yeah, yeah, that

720
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: that's that's what you say when the guy can't play.

721
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 1: That's what you say when the quarterback done. Well, he

722
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 1: just got here, you know, and he needs time to

723
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 1: get on in the same page. Yeah, Matt Castle, Yeah,

724
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: he needs time. No, he was terrible, Well he was,

725
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 1: it's not he's not incorrect. Yeah right, I mean, what's

726
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: all what's he done since? See that's what you say.

727
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 1: That's your evaluation that you make as still in the league. Yeah,

728
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 1: you make your evaluation. Yeah, these guys that they can

729
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: act like they can win are always going to be

730
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,879
Speaker 1: in the league. But that's where you know, your evaluation

731
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 1: overall is. You know, it's the front office. You have

732
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: to say, Okay, did we do everything. If I'm the

733
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 1: coaching staff, I'm at least I'm at least happy that

734
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: they tried to do something. You know, if it doesn't

735
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: work and then they make a change at coaching on

736
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: the coaching staff, you can walk away and say that's

737
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 1: not my problem. You know, when you're when you're in

738
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,919
Speaker 1: another team and you know you're sitting in a draft

739
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: room and you're like, well Dallas didn't have a one. Well,

740
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: that's not my problem. It's somebody else's problem. So that's

741
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: why you're on the table saying, Jason, should you know

742
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 1: pound the table and say I get I was arguing.

743
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: I was arguing, and Mickey and I were going back

744
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: and forth about this, and I felt like he made

745
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: some really good points about the whole thing with you know,

746
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: with Earl Thomas. I was from the art. I was

747
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: from the argument side of the coaches, where I'm like, yeah,

748
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 1: get me as many proven players as I can play with.

749
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 1: And I understand what Mickey was saying, what what costs

750
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: Brian and what cost? I get that I understand, But

751
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: also I'm trying to look at it from the coaching perspective.

752
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,359
Speaker 1: You know what, they could sit there and say we're

753
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 1: not getting you anybody, We're not going to help you

754
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,479
Speaker 1: at all. And the fact that they sacrifice the first

755
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: round pick to try and help us ought to make

756
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 1: you get in your office and get your ass in

757
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: gear and try and figure this thing out. Well, and

758
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,320
Speaker 1: how about the effect on the players. I mean, defense

759
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 1: is playing at a championship level. You're showing, You're showing,

760
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: You're showing your team locker room. You are absolutely you're

761
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 1: absolutely showing your team that you know what, A, we're

762
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: supporting the coach, that b we're supporting you. If they

763
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: if you know, players get on that plane and bus

764
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,360
Speaker 1: and whatever, and there's like, God, if we could just

765
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: get some offense, if we could in Zeke's probably, if

766
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:04,799
Speaker 1: we could just get the ball in the end and

767
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: Daks thinking if I just could throw it to you know,

768
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a commitment. They could have just

769
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 1: packed this thing in and said, okay, boys six and ten,

770
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 1: here we come. We're gonna take this twelfth overall pick

771
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 1: and go get somebody by everybody. They didn't. They're not

772
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: doing that players. I think players recognize talent better than

773
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: anyone else. They know question when they play against these

774
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: guys who can play who can't. And I'll guarantee you

775
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: they're excited about this move. They played against him because

776
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: they know and and you know, in the offseason, think about,

777
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: you know what they acquired. Did they acquire anything that

778
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: gave this offense juice? Like everybody got excited, and yes, boy,

779
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: what did we bring in? You brought in a swing tackle?

780
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 1: And I've seen it happen before when you don't know

781
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: what you've gotten in the draft, and you didn't, you

782
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: didn't bring in any juice. Like everybody's fired. They'll say

783
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: Tavon Austin though, no, and you know he has to

784
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 1: be brought up because in camp everybody said, wow, this

785
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: guy can make plays as an outside receiver, you know,

786
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 1: and and but what happened he got fifth you know,

787
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: maybe less than twenty snaps a game and then he

788
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 1: got hurt. Yeah, but he wasn't he wasn't signed him.

789
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 1: It was somebody. Yeah, and you know, right when they

790
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: signed ring was really excited until he got on the field. Yeah,

791
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,240
Speaker 1: but Herns, I mean, Jacksonville needed receivers and they didn't

792
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: keep them. They let him go, you know, and they oh,

793
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 1: well he's been hurt. Okay, he's been hurt, but he

794
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 1: wasn't hurt all the time. The problem with Herns Mickey

795
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 1: is he's got no juice. Yeah, he's he could see

796
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,280
Speaker 1: it in the game. Yes, he runs, he runs in mud.

797
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 1: Now now you you there's some things that he can do.

798
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: I mean, there's something we've seen him makes some plays.

799
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,720
Speaker 1: He hasn't made nearly enough plays, but he's got no juice.

800
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: Tavon Austin's got juice, but he doesn't make enough places

801
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 1: or they don't put him out there to make enough plays. Yeah,

802
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: he's almost treated as they give him a little package

803
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 1: of plays every game. And you know, if I'm if, yeah,

804
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: if I'm if I'm the if I'm the general manager,

805
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,359
Speaker 1: I'm looking at Scott Lindhand, I'm like, okay, listen, this

806
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,399
Speaker 1: is what happened. This is what happened this way. Okay,

807
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 1: I didn't help you here. I didn't help here. I

808
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: try to help you here, but you know now I'm

809
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 1: going to really try and help here. No, trust me.

810
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 1: I've sat with Jerry Jones when he didn't have a

811
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 1: first round pick for two years. I sat there and

812
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: watched that happen. Okay, this is not pretty in that

813
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 1: draft room. For him to make this decision took a lot,

814
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 1: a lot. And if you don't think he's trying to

815
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,320
Speaker 1: help Dak Prescott and help Jason Garrett and this coaching

816
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 1: staff and this football team, then you're you're you need

817
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: to follow some other teams, no questions, especially especially with

818
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,879
Speaker 1: Stephen Jones having more and more influence than Stephen Jones

819
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: Love's draft picks. They valued the draft more than anything.

820
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: Look at how young this roster is, and it's built

821
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 1: largely through the draft, and it's built pretty well through

822
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: the draft. So yeah, you're you're parting with one of

823
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 1: your best. You're saying he's given it five years of

824
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: control for a chance to try and help this football team.

825
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: Right or wrong? Is a cowboy fan If you're out

826
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 1: there ripping their ass for this. Shame on you, you know,

827
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: shame on you for thinking that way. They're trying to

828
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 1: win games for you right now. They're trying to go

829
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: out and get a player that can potentially make a

830
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: difference and maybe help your quarterback from being like in

831
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: the dark ages throwing the football in the way. They're

832
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:27,479
Speaker 1: gonna look at it now. They just got their first

833
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,359
Speaker 1: round draft pick six months early, and that's the way

834
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 1: they view it. Let's see, let's see at about for

835
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:38,320
Speaker 1: some guys the same age and the fact that he's

836
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: got three and a half years of experience. It's not

837
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 1: like a rookie receiver coming in. Nothing too kind of.

838
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 1: I read all those names yesterday. I read all. I

839
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 1: read them all. Figure it out. DeVante Parker, Nelson Aguilar

840
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: for Shot Perriman all right, Corey Coleman, I think he's

841
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: on a practice squad right now. Will Fuller Houston really

842
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,879
Speaker 1: hasn't developed very much there. They've got a big tim

843
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: Josh Dodson. How many years has he been having to

844
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 1: try to develop? They're still waiting for him. The Kwan treadwell.

845
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 1: Think Mike Zimmer's real happy right now with him looking

846
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: at that big son of a gun standing they're not

847
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: making needy plays. They drafted him, you know, he's still

848
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: hadn't made a play. Corey Davis will see him at Tennessee.

849
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,280
Speaker 1: Think I had his first touchdown catch like two weeks ago,

850
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 1: you know, Mike Williams, John Ross, John Ross, I think

851
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: he has played three games with Cincinnati. Okay, don't tell

852
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 1: me about this, right And you did draft one in

853
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: the third round this year. That's got some promise, probably

854
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 1: better than everybody I named right there. It's got a

855
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 1: lot of promise, probably better than everybody I named. So

856
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, if you can find a way to get

857
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: him going and get this guy that you traded for

858
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 1: going and continue on with Cole Beasley, you have a chance.

859
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 1: If it doesn't work, then at the end of the year,

860
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,439
Speaker 1: we could all sit down and say, Okay, this needs

861
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:52,839
Speaker 1: to be done, This needs to be done, and this

862
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: needs right now. You're playing to try and win football games,

863
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 1: all right, real quick. Let's go to NEBBI and Silver Spring, Maryland. NEBBI.

867
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 1: and visiting with us Saturday night at the hotel. Got

868
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: a picture, We posted a picture with listen. I realized

869
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 1: that we needed help at receiver, but I think we

870
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:43,760
Speaker 1: gave up too much to acquire u Amari Cooper because

871
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: depending on how Dak Prescott uh plays the rest of

872
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 1: the season, we uh uh uh uh we may uh

873
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: uh uh uh uh uh to draft a new starting

874
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 1: a quarterback. I take care, thanks for being patient with me,

875
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 1: and have a great week. Nebbe. That's a great point.

Speaker 1: field that you really find out what he's made of.

902
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:39,600

903

Speaker 1: and scouting reports when building their team. When picking a tractor,

904
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 1: it's why you should rely on more than just specs

905
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 1: and features. You've got to take it out and put

906

941
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,919
Speaker 1: mister scout over here. Brian brought us this from Joe's

942
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:04,760
Speaker 1: Alito on Twitter. From guys, I have watched Antonio. From guys,

943
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 1: I have watched Antonio Brown, Amari Cooper and Odell Beckham

944
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,320
Speaker 1: are in a class of their own and route running,

945
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 1: so it's a winning move when you analyze all the variables,

946
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,760
Speaker 1: how would you rank Amari Cooper among the best wide

947
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,560
Speaker 1: receivers in the league. But when you watch him play, though,

948
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:25,200
Speaker 1: the thing that stands out is his ability, you know,

949
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 1: the ability to go get the football. You know, whether

950
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 1: it's in traffic, whether it's coming across the field, whether

951
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: it's going down the signs. If you have an opportunity today,

952
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,359
Speaker 1: sit down and watch him play against Kansas City last

953
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 1: year in late in season, in that game, and you

954
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:45,719
Speaker 1: get an idea. I mean, this guy, the opportunities that

955
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,880
Speaker 1: he's had this season or not as many as quality

956
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:53,760
Speaker 1: opportunities as he had last season when he was playing.

957
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,399
Speaker 1: I think the Gruden switch really hurt him as far.

958
00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,720
Speaker 1: But when you look at him as a route runner,

959
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:01,959
Speaker 1: you look at him as ability to come across the field,

960
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,359
Speaker 1: you look at his ability to get vertical, you look

961
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 1: at his ability to separate, you know, the the way

962
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 1: that he's you know, the inside routes, the things that

963
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 1: he could do. He runs routes at all levels of

964
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 1: the field. This is not a guy that's just going

965
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 1: to run up the field and he'll throw the ball

966
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 1: down the field and hope for the best. This guy

967
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 1: catches screens, he catches slants, he catches digs, he catches

968
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 1: option routes. I mean, there's all kinds of things that

969
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 1: you can do with this guy. And I and I

970
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,240
Speaker 1: felt like that the first couple of years, and especially

971
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:34,840
Speaker 1: again looking back at two and seventeen. He's a X receiver,

972
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 1: I mean, but he could play like a Z where

973
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: you can move him around and do something. So I

974
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 1: think the route running is fine. He the one thing

975
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: he is, he's smart to know what coverages are because

976
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 1: you'll see him when he when he's going inside and

977
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 1: they're playing zone, he'll sit down and catch a ball.

978
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 1: Or if they're playing man and they're trailing him, he'll

979
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,879
Speaker 1: take off running and just keep going on the play

980
00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 1: to catch the football. So as far as I just

981
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,160
Speaker 1: I see a very talented player that you can you

982
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 1: know you got, Like Micky said earlier, if you're going

983
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 1: eleven personnel and you've put out there, you put out

984
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:12,399
Speaker 1: there Maury Cooper, Michael Gallop and then Cole Beasley. Now

985
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 1: you're now you're creating some opportunity. Now you're creating you're

986
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:19,880
Speaker 1: giving your quarterback options to throw the football too. And

987
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 1: I I just I just I love this guy and

988
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,480
Speaker 1: ability to go in and just go and get the football.

989
00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 1: That's That's the one thing that bothers me about the

990
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,320
Speaker 1: receivers that they have here. Nobody's going and getting the football.

991
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,319
Speaker 1: Everybody's waiting for the ball to get to them. They

992
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 1: need they need a mean sob to go in there

993
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 1: and just take balls away from people and you know,

994
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:44,080
Speaker 1: and keep these chains moving. We're starting to see that

995
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 1: with Gallup. You know, he made a contested catch early

996
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 1: against the last home game I was Jacksonville. Yeah, that

997
00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 1: was a big aggressive you know, go up and get

998
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,360
Speaker 1: it play, almost had a touchdown. But you're right, you

999
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 1: need more of that. I'm curious to see what the

1000
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:03,440
Speaker 1: rotation is now. You know who cares about the rotation? No, no, no,

1001
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:07,240
Speaker 1: I'm just asking what you know our Hearns and Thompson

1002
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,239
Speaker 1: gonna get much now at all? Or you are? You

1003
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 1: are we rolling with these three guys Thompson. Thompson does

1004
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: nothing for me, He's done nothing for me. I'm just

1005
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:18,279
Speaker 1: I'm just asking because we've talked your throat. I'm just

1006
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:20,120
Speaker 1: saying we talked about trying to pair this thing down,

1007
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:21,879
Speaker 1: and maybe this is the move that pairs it down.

1008
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,279
Speaker 1: Mickey's right, play with those three guys and then play

1009
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: with Swaying. It tied in, you know, and yeah, you

1010
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: got four guys who can catch the balls. Maybe it Yeah.

1011
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 1: And by the way, that gaming against Kansas City, it

1012
00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:34,600
Speaker 1: was the first meeting between the Raiders in Kansas City

1013
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: last year. He had eleven catches for two hundred and

1014
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 1: ten yards and two touchdowns, nineteen targets in that game. Capable,

1015
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 1: very capable player there. He was hurt against Dallas, didn't

1016
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: play and didn't play, No, didn't playing around that same time.

1017
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 1: It was the later game against Kansas City, which he

1018
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 1: must have got hurt in that game because he only

1019
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 1: had one target game. See the thing about it is

1020
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,880
Speaker 1: he he got this concuss this year. He got a

1021
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,320
Speaker 1: concussion against Seattle. The game was played in London, and

1022
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,759
Speaker 1: he got a cushion going inside catching the football and

1023
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 1: got whacked by the safety. But he went in there

1024
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:08,879
Speaker 1: and got the football. You know. So to me, I'm trying,

1025
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 1: I'm trying to I'm trying to get offense. I'm trying

1026
00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: to move the football. I'm trying not to be stuck

1027
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:17,239
Speaker 1: in the mud and scoring ten thirteen points every every

1028
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,600
Speaker 1: time I go out there on the road, I'm trying

1029
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:21,920
Speaker 1: to go out there and find guys that can make plays.

1030
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,360
Speaker 1: This guy's a capable playmaker. If it works, it works.

1031
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,360
Speaker 1: If it doesn't work, then again, go figure out what

1032
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 1: else you need to do. But it will say, oh, well,

1033
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: don't have a first round picks beer. Well, you know what,

1034
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 1: there's other avenues to help your football team. Two games

1035
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 1: this year he had a hundred yards. One was at

1036
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: Denver ten receptions on ten targets for one hundred and

1037
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:46,879
Speaker 1: sixteen yards, and then two weeks later against Cleveland, eight

1038
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 1: receptions one hundred twenty eight yards and a touchdown on

1039
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 1: twelve targets. We'd kill for a cowboy receiver to have behind.

1040
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it's kill. It's a bad word. Sorry, Love

1041
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 1: to have, love to have a receiver that even gets

1042
00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 1: close to getting a hundred yards. It'd be nice. Nice

1043
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 1: to have a guy to have a threat to has

1044
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 1: one hundred yards out there. Right, it's been just Beasley

1045
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 1: and that's it. And on a couple of occasions, and

1046
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:08,879
Speaker 1: that's been it, all right. You alluded to it early

1047
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:11,000
Speaker 1: in the show. Nebbie just brought it up. The effect

1048
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:15,520
Speaker 1: on the quarterback and the decision they will eventually have

1049
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 1: to make on the quarterback here in the next year

1050
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 1: and a half. What does this do. It's gotta it's

1051
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:23,880
Speaker 1: either gonna it's gonna help him. They're gonna see that

1052
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,640
Speaker 1: he can. Yeah, okay, we made a mistake and going

1053
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,840
Speaker 1: by committee, we got a number one receiver. We can

1054
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:32,160
Speaker 1: throw him the football. He's reliable. He catches seven to

1055
00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:34,800
Speaker 1: eight passes a game. He gets close to one hundred yards.

1056
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:36,880
Speaker 1: You know, we get a touchdown at him. Okay, now

1057
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 1: we can see, Okay, the quarterback can make throws. He

1058
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:42,840
Speaker 1: can throw the dig, he can throw the slant, he

1059
00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,440
Speaker 1: could throw the vertical routes, he could throw the option routes.

1060
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:47,400
Speaker 1: I mean you start to see, okay, he can make

1061
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,960
Speaker 1: these plays. If he can't hit a guy that's open

1062
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,080
Speaker 1: and this guy gets open, now it's about okay. We've

1063
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 1: saved ourselves one hundred million dollars on a quarterback. Hey,

1064
00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 1: take forget about the two fumbles. Whatever. How did y'all

1065
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,400
Speaker 1: think Dak played in that game? Showed a lot of guts.

1066
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 1: I thought so too, I said last night when we

1067
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,479
Speaker 1: did the show. He was the best quarterback on the field.

1068
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:11,240
Speaker 1: He was the best player. He was the best player

1069
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,120
Speaker 1: on the field, I thought, in the first half of

1070
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 1: that game, and he was swelve out of fifteen throwing

1071
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:17,680
Speaker 1: for one hundred and fifty yards or whatever it was.

1072
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,359
Speaker 1: I think what they might have seen out of Dak

1073
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:24,600
Speaker 1: throwing the football in that game also gave them that

1074
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 1: That solidified the thought that hey, we let's pull this

1075
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:32,200
Speaker 1: trigger on this got to get protection though exactly, you know,

1076
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:34,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he might not see everything down the field,

1077
00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,080
Speaker 1: but half the time he's having to look at the

1078
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 1: frigging rush right in his face. Look what happened when

1079
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:43,360
Speaker 1: he had time on the touchdown pass to gallop. He

1080
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,359
Speaker 1: had time to look off the safety on the right

1081
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 1: side and then come back to the left and let

1082
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 1: that route develop. Those routes just don't magically develop. It

1083
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,359
Speaker 1: takes time. And he had time to step into the throw.

1084
00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:00,200
Speaker 1: Yeah you know what, you want him step up and

1085
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:03,120
Speaker 1: into Ryan Carrigan all the time. Yeah, he was trying

1086
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:06,719
Speaker 1: to God Almighty, Yeah, he's gotta have some time. In

1087
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:08,919
Speaker 1: the two minute drill. He was thrown over the top

1088
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 1: of some people too, Yes, because it wasn't clean. It

1089
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:13,359
Speaker 1: was not clean, and he made some throws that throw

1090
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,880
Speaker 1: to Beasley. He had, he had Preston Smith right in

1091
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:17,959
Speaker 1: his face. Now, if you want to tell me there's

1092
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:21,200
Speaker 1: there's there's some issues now, left tackle, you know there's

1093
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: some issues over it. Right tackle, I'm gonna agree with you.

1094
00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna agree with you. You know, we we we

1095
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,200
Speaker 1: came out of here saying, hey, hang your hat on

1096
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:31,600
Speaker 1: this offensive line. Hang your hat on the offensive line.

1097
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,720
Speaker 1: The offensive line is letting you down. Now in games.

1098
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:36,480
Speaker 1: Why they thought they could go with the rotation that

1099
00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 1: receiver they had and run the football was because of

1100
00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 1: the line. Yeah, they thought Dak would have time to

1101
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:44,879
Speaker 1: spread it around, and he hasn't, especially on the road.

1102
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:48,520
Speaker 1: I think. Also, and you simplify the personnel groupings and everything,

1103
00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,319
Speaker 1: that's going to help the quarterback finding open receivers too.

1104
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,960
Speaker 1: I mean, just put guys out there that can get open,

1105
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:56,840
Speaker 1: and put guys out of the field that can finish.

1106
00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:59,360
Speaker 1: That's the whole thing. Give me a guy that can finish,

1107
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 1: you know, me a guy that when you throw him

1108
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: the ball, it's he catches and he goes up the field.

1109
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,919
Speaker 1: It's a you know, extra eight ten yards physical run.

1110
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 1: You know, that's what that number eighty eight used to do.

1111
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 1: In his heyday, he was a catch it finished, physical,

1112
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: get everybody going. No one wanted to tackle him. Nobody

1113
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 1: wanted to tackle that guy. This guy's six one, two eleven.

1114
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: I mean, he's go back. I mean, I can't heer

1115
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:24,279
Speaker 1: what game it was I was watching him. I gotta

1116
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 1: they were all he catches a ball on the on

1117
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:29,640
Speaker 1: the seven yard line and he's now powering his way

1118
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:31,759
Speaker 1: to the three. And now he gets all those big

1119
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:34,279
Speaker 1: bodies behind and they push him into the end zone.

1120
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 1: Give me that mean, nasty s ob and I think

1121
00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 1: this guy could be that if we just can find

1122
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:41,520
Speaker 1: a way to get him the football. It's gonna be

1123
00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 1: on the quarterback to do that. All right, here's a

1124
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:49,160
Speaker 1: little softball for Mickey as we wrap up, because I

1125
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,359
Speaker 1: can't hit a fastball. I haven't I haven't heard him.

1126
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:56,480
Speaker 1: I haven't heard his reaction into the penalty on lp

1127
00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,399
Speaker 1: lettuce are at the end of the game. The volume

1128
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:05,239
Speaker 1: down on my head said, right, yes, I did. When

1129
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 1: I when I did my fan report, I called the

1130
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 1: guy number seventy four, I said number seventy four killed him.

1131
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 1: How does a guy see that far away and make

1132
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: that call? That's his job. He is the line judge. Yeah,

1133
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 1: well there's a guy looking right in at the burner.

1134
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 1: I know that guy. He's number Yeah, that guy looking

1135
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 1: in his protectives or his last name is Burns. That

1136
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 1: guy right there was right on top of it. Yeah,

1137
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 1: and he could see what's going on. But no, this

1138
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 1: guy thirty yards away said, oh, so the question the

1139
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 1: question I got, and thanks for doing this. Keep that

1140
00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 1: music going. If the guy hadn't jumped off sides, would

1141
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:43,360
Speaker 1: he have made that call? No? Absolutely not right, what

1142
00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 1: do you have he even noticed it? No, no, not

1143
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 1: at all. So then why do you have to have illusions?

1144
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:52,400
Speaker 1: You know, don't make stuff up? Call what you see? Ye,

1145
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 1: thank you? No, keep going, man, keep going. When you

1146
00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 1: think about the prospects that the that the Redskins coach

1147
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:01,880
Speaker 1: is alerted the officials ahead of the game that to

1148
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 1: be looking for this, well the coach, the official on

1149
00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 1: the Cowboys sideline made the call. Yeah, that's what's amazing.

1150
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:11,480
Speaker 1: So he was standing right in front of Garrett. And

1151
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:14,480
Speaker 1: you know what, if I was the head coach, I

1152
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,640
Speaker 1: would have cost us fifteen more yards. They would have

1153
00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 1: had to carry me off the field. You might have

1154
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:21,800
Speaker 1: been like held for hitting the official. I might have been.

1155
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 1: It might have been like Switzer, I would have not

1156
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:26,880
Speaker 1: left see this. I would have been out at midfield

1157
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,760
Speaker 1: chewing his But this is the problem. And if you

1158
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 1: go back and watch LP Latticeur throughout his career, and

1159
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 1: he's had a long, successful career, he always adjusts the football.

1160
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 1: He always you go back. I watched, and I even

1161
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,680
Speaker 1: went back and watched. I watched what Sundberg, the Center

1162
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 1: for Washington was doing. You know, the only thing LP

1163
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 1: Laudisur did was when he when he puts the ball

1164
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,919
Speaker 1: on the point and then puts it flat. They moved

1165
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:50,800
Speaker 1: when he put the ball flat, and that was to

1166
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 1: get his guide hand on and that's what usually does.

1167
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:55,480
Speaker 1: And his argument was, you have to move it a

1168
00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:57,440
Speaker 1: little bit to get your hand underneath it to snap it.

1169
00:58:57,880 --> 00:58:59,680
Speaker 1: But as long as it doesn't leave the ground, which

1170
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:01,480
Speaker 1: did he didn't pick it up. Yeah, you know, so

1171
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:04,640
Speaker 1: that's it's never there's difference, and he's never been called

1172
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,400
Speaker 1: for the same thing. He laid the ball down before

1173
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 1: he snapped it, and that's when the guy the jump.

1174
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:14,480
Speaker 1: He didn't jump until that secondhand came on. And I

1175
00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:17,040
Speaker 1: think during that time out with twelve seconds left, the

1176
00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 1: Redskin coaches told the Redskin players to jump and think

1177
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 1: that they would get it because we don't care about

1178
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,960
Speaker 1: too much credit. That was the only way they were

1179
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,600
Speaker 1: getting the call is if they jump. Oh, it influenced

1180
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:34,480
Speaker 1: the refs, sure did, of course. Like I said, the

1181
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: guy who is responsible burns the official there in the birds,

1182
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,720
Speaker 1: if you're watching right now with us, his job is

1183
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:42,919
Speaker 1: to make sure that nobody lines up over the nose

1184
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:45,800
Speaker 1: of LP latticer, then he and then he's protected. He

1185
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 1: did not, and he is standing four feet away from

1186
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:50,880
Speaker 1: that and did not. And I guarantee you that gentleman

1187
00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 1: has seen hundreds of extra points and field goals and

1188
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,880
Speaker 1: has probably never ever ever made that call. I might

1189
00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,680
Speaker 1: have strangled the guy when he get walking by me.

1190
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 1: All right. That does it for talking cowboys for this Tuesday,

1191
01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 1: and we'll be back even though it's a bye weight.

1192
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 1: We're back to talk cowboys and talk more trades. Well,

1193
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,040
Speaker 1: what do you know, ever know what's going to happen.

1194
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,320
Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

1195
01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
