Was something that 14 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: just absolutely drove me crazy today and that was comments 15 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: from former NFL quarterback Carson Palmer. So it's Super Bowl week, 16 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: and during Super Bowl Week a lot of guys like 17 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: Carson Palmer Emmitt Smith go around doing these promos for 18 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: companies and they'll go on radio stations. So guy might 19 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: be pitching tequila soft drinks copy inc. Whatever and they 20 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: go on the show. So Carson Palmer was on one 21 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: oh five three, the Fan of the Dallas Cowboys flagship station, 22 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: and Carson told Sean and RJ that he thinks because 23 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is a Dallas Cowboys quarterback, he should take 24 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: less money. That was his thought process, said, well, you 25 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: look at you know, at one point in time you 26 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: had Jason Witt and Tony Romo and Troy Aigman. All 27 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: of these guys had made network TV jobs. It was 28 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: because they all played for the Dallas Cowboys, and that 29 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: Dad should be thinking about that. My first thought is 30 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: what if Dad doesn't want to go in a TV 31 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: What if Dax says I don't want it, I don't 32 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: want to be a broadcaster. It's it's it just bugs 33 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: me because why does Dak have to take less money? 34 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna lay it out here, Okay, Fellas, one 35 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: of my issues is it becomes and it feels to 36 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: me like it becomes the grateful negro argument. Hey man, 37 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: you should just be happy that you get to play 38 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: for mister Jones and the Dallas Cowboys. You should take 39 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: whatever you can and help them out. No, Zeke didn't 40 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 1: say you know what, man, I'm gonna take less so 41 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: Dad can get paid. Dank didn't say I'm gonna take 42 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: less so Dad couldn't get it and get paid. Jimmy 43 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: Garoppolo played seven games and reset the market. Okay, he 44 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: reset the market for a quarterback based off seven playoffs. 45 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean seven games. None of them are 46 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Okay, seven football games. Andrew Luck set 47 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: the market. Matthew Stafford set the market, Aaron Rodgers set 48 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: the market. Russell Wilson set the market. But now Dak 49 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 1: Prescott needs to be the dude that says, hey, man, 50 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take less money. Fellas, I have a problem. 51 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: Tony Romo didn't take less money either, man, So so 52 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: don't forget to leave Tony out of there. He didn't 53 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: take less money so other people could could could make 54 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: something to make the team better. So that was the 55 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: last Cowboys quarterback that got paid a lot of bread. 56 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: So so make sure you love him in there too. 57 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: What nobody asking him to do? What they're asking Dad 58 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: to do. And I think it's funny we always go 59 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: into this the old school comment always be like then 60 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 1: the old school. They always want to look at look 61 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: at stuff how it was done back in the day, 62 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: and they don't want to change and do all that stuff. 63 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: Between him and what he said this week and what 64 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: Brett Farve said about Deshaun Watson making so much money 65 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: that he you know, we make too much money to 66 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: have an opinion that is some old school, crazy way 67 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: of thinking that you just not in the new century 68 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: and we don't think that way. Millennials, jen x and 69 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: all that stuff. They don't think that way. So they 70 00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: can say that all they want to, and it's going 71 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: to continue to be wrong and people will continue to 72 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: knock them down for it because it don't make no sense. 73 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: One get out of their pockets too. You ain't even 74 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: there no more. So stop speaking on this man. You 75 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: don't know him, You don't know what's happening with the 76 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: end of workings of the organization. And when you're speaking 77 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: on that, this dude was a fourth round draft pick, 78 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: hasn't got a chance to get his big payday. And 79 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: when it's time for him to get his big pay day, 80 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: the team hasn't paid him for two years, and you're 81 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: consistently telling him to take less money so he can 82 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: go speak as an NFL broadcasters. Makes no sense. The 83 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: dudes in his twenties, you're talking about what he should 84 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: be doing when he's thirty five and forty years old. 85 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: Get out of here. Yeah, yeah, it makes no sense. 86 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Dan mc I agree with you one hundred 87 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: percent on this one. I mean Carson Palmer's his comments 88 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: to me, they were out of pocket. I mean, first 89 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: of all, you shouldn't be in the business of counting 90 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: other man's money, like, you know, let him be him, 91 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: Let him get as much money as he can. If 92 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: it's with the Dallas Cowboys, fine, If it's somewhere else, 93 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: that's great as well. But Dak Prescott deserves his money 94 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: and he should get paid as such. And for all 95 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 1: these guys telling them to take discounts, take haircuts, and 96 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: all this other stuff, he shouldn't do that because because 97 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 1: the organizations don't do that. When they're taking TV deals 98 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: and they're doing all these all these different type of deals, 99 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: they're not taking discounts off they're not doing haircuts. Jerry 100 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: Jones isn't giving these TV guys a discount. Also, why 101 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: should why should Dak Prescott do that as well? I 102 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 1: just don't see that in and when they talk about 103 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: off the field stuff when you when you're a Dallas Cowboy, 104 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: you get all this money off the field, that is true, 105 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: but a lot of it is the play on the field. 106 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: Like Quincy Carter was a quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. 107 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: Do you think he had all these national programs and 108 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: all these national commercials. No, because he wasn't doing as 109 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: well on the field as Dak Prescott. So for me, 110 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: if I'm Dak Prescott, you gotta get all the money 111 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: that you can and make sure you don't give anybody 112 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: discounts because this NFL thing is not for long. It's 113 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: only a short period of your life, So get as 114 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: much money as you can. Now, as far as the 115 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: Brett five comments, I mean, he's completely out of pocket. 116 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: I mean this is like, this is like, this is 117 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: a loanal lines of shut up and dribble type argument, 118 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: and I just can't deal with it. And I just 119 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: can't believe Bret fare would even go out there and 120 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: make those comments. Here's the hypocrisy of Brett Farve. For 121 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: a while, Farv was holding Ted Thompson, who was running 122 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers, and a hostage mode. I don't 123 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: know if I'm gonna play next year. I don't know, 124 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: I got to think about anything about So he was 125 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: kind of waffling in this whole retirement thing for a minute. 126 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: And so what did Ted Thompson do without drafted Aaron Rodgers. Well, 127 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: now Brett Farvall. So now now now he's in. And 128 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: then Brett decides to retire. Then Brett wanted to come back, 129 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: and Ted Thompson said, no, you can't come back. And 130 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: then Brett said, well, let me compete for the job, 131 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: and Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy said no, Aaron Rodgers 132 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: is the guy. So then Brett said, trade me to Minnesota. 133 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: They're like, we ain't trade you in the division, man, No, 134 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: And so they've worked it out that Brett could go 135 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: to the New York Jets, and they traded him over 136 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: to the AFC. So then he decides to retire from 137 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: the Jets. After he plays a year, he retires and 138 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: asked them to release it. Then he comes back, We'll 139 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: guess who he's playing for. He's playing for Minnesota. And 140 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: then okay, remember now they ended up. Well, one summer 141 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 1: he was sitting at his sitting at his farm, and 142 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 1: he didn't know if he wanted to come back, so 143 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: they'd tell everybody to go on down. They tell everybody 144 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: to going down to the Mississippi and convince him to 145 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: come back and play another year. I mean, this thing 146 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: is ridiculous. You're talking about the ultimate deva and the 147 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: guy who wanted things his own way, and then he's 148 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: when Aaron Rodgers was drafting, was like, I ain't helping him. 149 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: It's not my job to help him. I mean, this 150 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: guy's amazing the hypocrisy he wants to throw out here 151 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: that all of a sudden, you know, Deshaun Watson shouldn't 152 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: be asking for a trade. You know who asked for 153 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: a trade and got one. And he did the same 154 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: thing about Matthew Stafford told lines, I want to play 155 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: you any more. I mean, so so with Matthew Stafford 156 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: supposed to just shut up. I mean, come on, man, 157 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: it's it's the constant thing of I'm gonna put my 158 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: finger at this guy. I ain't gonna look at what 159 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: I did. I mean, you well, I know this. I 160 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: didn't forget what. Carson Palmer decided to quit the Cincinnati Beings. 161 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: He quit, went home, said I ain't playing I ain't 162 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: never gonna play for you again. And then after the 163 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: Bengals played hardball, they ended up trading him to the Raiders. 164 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: I just I just find it hilarious, man, when these 165 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: guys want to sit up here and tell other dudes 166 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: that they need to take less money. What is one 167 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: thing that we've seen this offseason? The teams are desperate 168 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: for quarterbacks. Okay, they're desperate for him, and we didn't 169 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: bring up Kirk Cousins. But has anybody been paid more 170 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: money in the NFL and delivered so little like Kirk Cousins. No, 171 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: whoever gave anybody Sam Brafer and look never never gave discounts. 172 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: So I just find it amazing that other people who 173 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: don't give discounts it's all good, and people who haven't 174 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: accomplished what Dak Prescott has accomplished. Now he's supposed to 175 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: sit around here and give the Cowboys a discount. Now, yeah, 176 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: what listen, you continue with your point right after this, 177 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: Remember it is Dak Prescott went out there, went out 178 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: there this year, gave her everything he got and broke 179 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: his leg, all right, And then coming off of that, 180 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: after coming out there and putting your body on the 181 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: line play, giving everything for your team in the organization. 182 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: This dude, Carson Parmer says, Oh, by the way, when 183 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: you come back, you should take a discount, man, because 184 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: when when you're done, you might be able to be 185 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: on TV. Get out of here. It don't make no sense, man, 186 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: Football players like this is the most physical sport on 187 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: earth to me, and you go out there and you 188 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: risk everything you deserve to get paid what you asked for, 189 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: especially when you performed like you like that. Prescott has 190 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: been doing the carrying the team, and once you see 191 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 1: how the team performed without him, you should say that 192 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: you should be asking for more, not this bs that 193 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: Carson farm whose Carson Parmer? Anyway? What I don't want 194 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: to talk about that dude. Look, I like Carson Palmer 195 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: got got to cover Carson as a high school football 196 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: player in southern California, and look, he was asked the 197 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: guys from the fan asked in his opinion, and he 198 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 1: gave it. I just disagree with the opinion. And there 199 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: are other people out here who's who are backing him up. 200 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: I had one guy on Twitter say, well, man, he 201 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: needs to take less so they could keep Zeke and 202 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: keep other people around him and not to beat up Zeke. 203 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: But Zeke didn't give him no disc guy, he didn't say, 204 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: you know what, man, let me leave by fifteen million 205 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 1: on the table so we can go ahead and get 206 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: Dak and I got a good quarterback. No, he wanted 207 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: his Tank said it best. It's not my job to 208 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: say the Cowboys money. And if we kind of go 209 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 1: back eighteen months into this, can we not put this 210 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: on the Cowboys. The Cowboys could have got him, should 211 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: they could have got him, and should have got him 212 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: when Winz got his deal and then Golf got his deal, 213 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: and we were sitting here saying, hey, man, how long 214 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: are you gonna wait? He's in the class of these guys. 215 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: You should pay him. But people like, oh, he's not 216 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: worth he's not worth thirty million. Remember that he worth 217 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: thirty million. You shouldn't be paying a thirty million here. Well, 218 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: guess what price, hag went up ten million? Okay, it's 219 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: just gone up ten million, And it's the Cowboys fault. 220 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: They're the ones who decided not to write the check. 221 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: And if you're Dak Prescott, if they give you a 222 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 1: franchise tag, you go in the next year and who 223 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: knows where you can end up. Chicago got quarterback probs. 224 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: Jimmy Gee's in his last year with the forty nine ers, 225 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: and the forty nine ers could move off of them. 226 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: But could you imagine Dak Prescott playing and Dak Kyle 227 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: Shanahan system of the New England Patriots right now don't 228 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: have a quarterback. There's teams in this league who need 229 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: a quarterback. And if I'm Dak Prescott and if I 230 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: can't come to an agreement with the Cowboys this year, 231 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: this guy can go in the next year. He will 232 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: find a home and he won't have to take take 233 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: a discount at all. So do you so, do you 234 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: think it's that they don't believe in him as a 235 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: franchise quarterback, because I mean, look, if he's that guy, 236 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 1: he's the guy that they want so bad. I mean 237 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: a year difference to me between a four year contract 238 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 1: and a five year contract. If he's that guy, he's 239 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,079 Speaker 1: what you believe in. That shouldn't behold, that shouldn't be 240 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: you know, stopping, that shouldn't be anything that shouldn't be 241 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: in the way of getting a deal done to me. 242 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: So what do you think Louie and Danny, like, what 243 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: is it the belief factor or is it really just 244 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: this four to five year thing, because I just really 245 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: don't believe that if he's your guy. Listen, I'm going 246 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: back to what I said a couple of years ago. 247 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: It's the belief factor to me. I mean, I think 248 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: I think this year was one of those proven years 249 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: and then he got cut short because he ended up 250 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: breaking his leg. I think if he takes the team 251 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: to the playoffs and going to deep run, that four 252 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: year deal is on the table. I think if they 253 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: if he played the entire season, they end up seven 254 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: to nine, six and ten, then that that four year 255 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: deal is not on the table and they're looking at 256 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: other options that quarterback. You know, it just so happens 257 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: this year that he only made it through a portion 258 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: of the season, so now they have to kind of 259 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: way way the options of which way they want to go. 260 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 1: But I think it's the belief factor, and it was 261 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 1: a proven deal that he was playing on this year. 262 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: I think you have to look at history and you say, 263 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: who are some of the players that Cowboys have used 264 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: the franchise tag on Tank Lawrence? They use it on 265 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: Anthony Spencer, and what was the message show us show 266 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: us one more year. That that was the message. And 267 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: while the Cowboys can say, hey, look, we thought we 268 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 1: had a deal at one time, and then the agent 269 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: changed his mind, and then we wanted a deal at 270 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: five years agent wanted for he's not signed, And you're 271 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: now in a process where you've got to get a 272 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: deal done here in the next seven to eight weeks 273 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 1: or you're gonna risk, you know, really just blowing this 274 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: thing up. And having looked for a quarterback in twenty 275 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: twenty two, they can't. They cannot do another franchise tag 276 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 1: with Dak Prescott. It's gonna be too cost prohibitors. So 277 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: they're at this point time where they're going to have 278 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: to get a deal done. And I don't care what 279 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: anyone says. It favors the quarterback. Okay, some people like, oh, 280 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: Jerry's got leverage because he got hurt. No he doesn't, No, 281 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: he doesn't. I didn't think that Jared Goss contract could 282 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: get moved and got moved. I didn't think anybody would 283 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 1: give up a high one for Matthew Stafford. And there 284 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: are a whole bunch of high ones that Detroit had 285 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: that they could have gotten for matt Stafford. Outside of 286 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: that two first rounders and a third round pick that 287 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: they got from Matthew Stafford, you added Dak Prescott. The 288 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 1: way this league is going to a mobile quarterback and 289 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: a guy who's put up some good numbers here, this 290 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 1: guy's gonna get he's gonna get a payday. He's gonna 291 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 1: get to pay that. So either Cowboys are gonna give 292 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: it to him or they're gonna risk somebody else giving 293 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: it to him next year. By the way, I forgot 294 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: to mention the gonna need a quarterback. If that if 295 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: that was the first it was a first round pick, 296 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: I believe he would have been signed. He would have 297 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: been resigned to the Dallas Cowboys already. I think that 298 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: that draft position is something that that that kind of 299 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: just seeps in the head of owners in the top 300 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: of the organization, because I don't know if that tag 301 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: just sticks with him. But I believe that if he 302 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: was he was the first round pick, like some of 303 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: these other guys that are resigning early and getting four 304 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: year deals for one hundred plus million dollars guarantee, I 305 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: think that he would have been paid already. And that's 306 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: what I don't understand why they didn't get it done. 307 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: They had such a bargain for the first four years. 308 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a fourth round pick. If you after 309 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: his first two years, if you were to throw money 310 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: at him, like a bag of money like that golf 311 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: for that wins tape two, I'm sure he would have 312 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: jumped all over that. You know, any performed better and 313 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: better as it goes on each year. So for me, 314 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: I just you know, I think that's just a mistake 315 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: in front office. They should have gat him, gat him 316 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: sound earlier, like Newly said, and then you know, we 317 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't be in this predicament as we speak. Now, let's 318 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: kind of let's let's go back here a little bit 319 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: of revisionist history because you bring up a good point Church, 320 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: But come back to this. Remember when Ezekiel Elliott was 321 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: holding out. At that time, there are a lot of 322 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: people saying this offense can't work without Zeke. It's all 323 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: about Zeke. It all revolves around the run game. And 324 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: he sits out, they decide they want to pay him. 325 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: They pay him. First three games. Dak Prescott goes off. 326 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: I mean, he's sensational. Was the Giants Miami and that 327 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: I forgot who the others. He maybe was Washington, Maybe 328 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: I think yeah was Washington. So those first three games, man, 329 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: he was on fire. And then the price tag just 330 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: just shot up. And we saw that Dak Prescott had 331 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: improved as a player. So a part of that, you know, 332 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: we're not sure is Dak able to carry the team? 333 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: Is it all the offensive line? And Zeke? I mean 334 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: you still had some of those people saying that and 335 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 1: they worked thirty mil and the guy just went out 336 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: there prove folks wrong. So the Cowboys are going to 337 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: pay one way or the other. You're going to pay 338 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: for a high number that's gonna be around forty million 339 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: a year, or you're gonna be looking for a quarterback 340 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. And I'm sorry that's a scary 341 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: proposition because there's a whole lot of folks who are 342 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: trying to look for a quarterback. It's hard to find 343 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: these dudes, man, It's hard. This is true. Yeah, I 344 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: don't know. You got lucky, man, You struck gold in 345 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: the fourth round, and somehow you're gonna let that goal, 346 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: you know, be disappointed and feel a certain way about 347 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: you and possibly get up out of here. I don't 348 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: think that makes a lot of sense. You know, you 349 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: keep on saying that that's he's the he's the guy, 350 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: he's the most important thing. And you went back from 351 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: saying that, you know, the pie is not big enough 352 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: for everybody to get some. He gave everybody something, but 353 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: that you know, this guy's looking at all that stuff, 354 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: he's seeing all this, he's remembering that he's coming off 355 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: of ankle injury where he put it on the line 356 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: for his team. And if you keep this up and 357 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: these negotiations get drug out, I think we can see 358 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: a real issue here with Dak Prescott in the future. 359 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: Did I mention the Colts need a quarterback? I mean, 360 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: you know, the Pittsburgh Steelers go be in the market 361 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: for a quarterback, if not this year, next year. I mean, 362 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 1: there's plenty of teams right now that are in a 363 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: position where if they don't need one this year, they'll 364 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: need one next year. If you're Tampa Bay, you know what, 365 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: Let's say Tom Brady comes and plays in twenty twenty 366 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: twenty one, Well what about twenty twenty two if the 367 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys franchise Jack and he gets out on the market. 368 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: I mean, this thing, the more we look at it, 369 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: the more and more you see that if you're the 370 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys not signing him, it's gonna put you in a spot. 371 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: And who are you gonna go get that? That's the 372 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: big thing. Who are you gonna get? When people are 373 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: talking about, hey, man, nui they should trade Deshaun Watson 374 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: get all you can, I'm like, who are you going 375 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: to get if you let Deshaun Watson go? It's hard. 376 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: You can talk about draft people all day long. You 377 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: guys played in this league, these draft picks, man, we 378 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: like to look at the successful dudes. People don't want 379 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 1: to talk about the Trabiskys and Blake Bordles and these 380 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: guys and teams are like, man, we messed up. Or 381 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: even you look at golf, Hey, they got rid of golf. 382 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: They ran the guy off. It is hard to find 383 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: the dudes and mahomes. I mean, that's the g d 384 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: in the bottle. These are the outliers, man, there's more 385 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: of these guys. Well, look at Josh Rosen. So remember 386 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 1: Arizona traded up to ten to select Josh Rosen. In 387 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: a year later they ran this guy out of town 388 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: because the number one picking they took Kyler Murray. So 389 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: they took first round quarterbacks back to back years. So 390 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: if you've got one man, write the check, write the 391 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: check and be done with this. It is hard. Miami's 392 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: still looking for a quarterback. I don't care that they 393 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,239 Speaker 1: draft to it. Since Dan Marino left, They've still been 394 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: looking for a quarterback. Man. Look at Washington. Washington is 395 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: hard up trying to find a quarterback. I think just 396 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:01,959 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I think it just 397 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: comes down to how much the Joneses believe in Dak 398 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: as a franchise quarterback. And you know, I think they're 399 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: like Daby I said, I think there's still rumblings going 400 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: on in there that they don't think without without a 401 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: healthy Zeke with all the fresh offensive line, that he 402 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: can take them to that spot. And you know, I 403 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: think if they did, they would have already paid them. 404 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: They would have already paid them. So to me, it's 405 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: a tough one. But they put themselves in this situation. Listen, 406 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: I think I think that's crazy, right because if you 407 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: look at the two teams to sell the Super Bowl, 408 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: they have pretty healthy offensive lines, they have pretty good 409 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: running backs, they have pretty good receivers, and they have 410 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: very good quarterbacks. Right, so this thing of Dak can't 411 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: do it without this and out that. Yes, to be 412 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: a super Bowl winning team, you need to be a 413 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 1: well rounded team, and it starts with the quarterback. Yes, 414 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 1: you also need a running game. Yes you also need 415 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 1: a healthy offensive line to keep up keep the quarterback up. 416 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: But you need all that stuff. The notion that Dad 417 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 1: can't do it without X, y Z, not many quarterbacks 418 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 1: have one. That's actually that I have won the Super 419 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: Bowl with just them being the guy and them not 420 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: having an old line or running game or some type 421 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: of defense that doesn't make sense. I would say this 422 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: as we go, as we go to break, I think 423 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: the Andy Dalton experiment told me a whole lot. And 424 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 1: he's three time Pro Bowl, he's a guy who's won 425 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 1: a lot of games. But Andy Dalton came in here 426 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: and he couldn't really make a difference. And it's not 427 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: all on Andy because you had, you know, offensive line 428 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: issues and stuff before, but it was clear there was 429 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: a drop off from Dak Prescott and what he could 430 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: do and what he could bring. And if you go 431 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: ahead and let this guy get out the door, the 432 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: chances of you ending up with somebody like Andy Dalton 433 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: who can only do so much in this offense and 434 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: gets limited. You're not gonna win many games like that. 435 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 1: It's tough. And I know that we could talk about 436 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: defense a lot of other facts. I said, I'm not 437 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: blaming it on Andy Dalton, but Andy Dalton didn't make 438 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: anybody else better, Okay, And that's not a slight. It's 439 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,479 Speaker 1: just saying it's just being on not many quarter backs. King, 440 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: But it was very clear what a guy like a 441 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 1: Mario Marie Cooper's making Pro Bowls with Dak Prescott, with 442 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton, he's just here. Even though he had some 443 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: nice numbers, he went a Pro Bowl guy. So if 444 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: I've got that guy, who, oh, by the way, in 445 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 1: this marketplace, these kids want to buy his jersey. Your 446 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: wife knows who Dak Prescott is. He's a favorable guy here, man, 447 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: pay for that, Pay for that and move on. We 448 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: gotta take a break right here on the Players Hotels 449 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: dot Com.

I think if if, 502 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: if I'm thinking correctly, I think dan Quinn will bring 503 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: that Seattle style defense down to down to the Dallas, 504 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: down to the Dallas Cowboys. But what I think he'll 505 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: do is I think he'll make it just extremely simple. 506 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 1: If you think about it. Back in twenty eighteen, when 507 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: you know our linebackers, that tandem we had LV and Jalen. 508 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: They were basically considered, you know, one of the top 509 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 1: linebacking tandems at the time, and they were flying all 510 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 1: over the place, and with that Marinelli system, it was 511 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: extremely simple. It was look, we're lined up in what 512 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: we are. You can either beat us with doing this 513 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: or you can't. But this is how we're gonna line up. 514 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: And and it was make a close call. And it 515 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: was just running hit. There was no you know, multiple looks. 516 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: There was no defensive ends dropping or I gotta I 517 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: gotta make this check if this running back switches over here, 518 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: or or I gotta make this check if the quarterback 519 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: says this. That's just a lot of thinking going on 520 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: with our young linebackers in there. And I think what 521 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 1: dan Quinn can bring down to this, to this defense 522 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 1: is just a simple defense. Make a close call. This 523 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 1: is my responsibility running hit. And I think if he's 524 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: able to do that, I think he'll get the most 525 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,479 Speaker 1: out of his linebackers out of his defense. So hopefully 526 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 1: we were able to do that, because Lord knows we 527 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: need to be better on defense if we're gonna make 528 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: a run out of anything. Yeah, I'm with you, Church, 529 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 1: And you know I put my staff on dan Quinn 530 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: before we even picked them up. So so I'm gonna 531 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stamp on that one more time. The biggest 532 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: thing that Dan Quinn can do when he come here 533 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: comes here is reinstall the four three defense. Get those 534 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 1: four defensive linemen, those those speed rush defensive ends, get 535 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 1: them active, and make sure that the linebackers are playing 536 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 1: gap control defense. That way is no gray area. You 537 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: know that if you get a pool and guard on 538 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: one guy has an eight gap, one guy has a 539 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 1: B gap, one guy has a C gap. That way 540 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: that you know you're looking as specifically your job and 541 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: you're not getting lost like we've seen those guys doing 542 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: specifically against the Baltimore Ravens. When you've seen the LV 543 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 1: looking at too many things. When you're in the four three, 544 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 1: you have one gap that is your assignment and you 545 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: have to be in that and that and that's all 546 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: you have to do to be successful on that defense. 547 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: So I think if he comes back and he implements 548 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: that four to three, he will maximize that. He will 549 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: maximize what DeMarcus Lawrence can do, Randy Gregory can do, 550 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: and then he'll have those guys like Trayvon Diggs, he'll 551 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: have him right the defensive back coach that they got. 552 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,719 Speaker 1: I think he'll be an improvement, but he'll he'll maximize 553 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 1: tray Von Diggs being able to play press and play aggressive, 554 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: and he'll sure up those getting beat deep plays and 555 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: I think they'll they'll play a lot better. All right, 556 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: let me let's let's kind of go level by level 557 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: on this. All right, as we talk about dan Quinn 558 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: and you know you can put into simple defense. Simple 559 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: defenses work when you have great players. So who are 560 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,360 Speaker 1: you're two starting? Who are you're starting two defensive ends? 561 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: Right now? If we just look at the base, Okay, 562 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: to Church, who are your defensive ends? Who started? I'm 563 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: going I'm going to thank Lawrence on one side, and 564 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: I'm going Gregory on the other. I think I think 565 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 1: thank Lawrence can play to run extremely well, and I 566 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: think Gregory he got he got a huge ceiling. So 567 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: for me, I gotta go with those two at the 568 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: defensive end spots McCray, same there, same here, all right, 569 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 1: same here, same here. Let Let those guys put their 570 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: hand back in the ground and get in Russell passing. 571 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: So what about Alden Smith? Is he out? Yes? To me, 572 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: Alden Smith is out. It's just it's just two two. 573 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: Like the production at the beginning of the season was amazing, 574 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,239 Speaker 1: great story, but as the season went on and just 575 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: tailed off into at the end of the season, we 576 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: were asking if he even dressed. So for me, I 577 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: just don't think he warnts coming back. I think he 578 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: stands in the way of a guy like Randy Gregory 579 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: or Durance Armstrong, guys like that who I want to 580 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: see more on the field. So for me, I had 581 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: to know on Alton Smith, all right, So let's yeah, 582 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna say I second that with all the Smith 583 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 1: and the big thing with him as he's a three 584 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: to four guy and I see Dan Quinn putting the 585 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 1: four three in, so I just don't see it being 586 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: as good a fit as it was last season. Okay, 587 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: what about defensive tackle? Go aheady man who you know, listen, 588 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: that's tough. I think I think that's what we're gonna 589 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: have to draft a guy, hopefully you know, in the 590 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: second third somewhere in there. But I saw something on 591 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: Nevill Gallamore on Twitter. Yes, you know, you know amongst rookies, 592 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: he was one of the highest rated run stoppers. Man. 593 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna give him a chance to compete for 594 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: that starting job in the off season, and then I 595 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: will put I'm looking for a draft pick to come in, 596 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 1: a high draft pick to come in and compete for 597 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: the other spot. Man because the guy I think Antoine was, 598 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: we seen him in there. We know he can play, 599 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: but we haven't seen him be ultra productive. So I 600 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: see a competition for the other spot. But I'm giving 601 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: them a Gallile Moore shot. For me, I think you 602 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: got one star in there. You got one star. You 603 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: got gallat More in there. We've seen towards the end 604 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: of the season, he's coming along. I think you got 605 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: one guy in him. Now, it all depends for me 606 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: on the other spot. I don't think you gotta go 607 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: super high as a draft pick because I like what 608 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,479 Speaker 1: I saw from Tristan Hill. But it only if he 609 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: comes back from that knee injuries. The same guy, okay, 610 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: but if he if he if he tapers off anything, 611 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna have to spend a draft pick 612 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: just in case on him. So maybe in the later rounds. 613 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: But I think you start off with those two in there. 614 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: I like what I saw from them last year. You 615 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: said you said you like Trister Hill last season. Gator roll, 616 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: My Gator roll got you come up with a body part. Man, 617 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: come up. I am not hopping on the Trister Hill bandwagon, 618 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: the great camp and all that stuff when you don't 619 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: even have to put pads on. I'm not hopping on 620 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: that bandwagon. Okay. So, so I think it's safe to 621 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: say free agency draft defensive tackle. There's a need. Okay, 622 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: there's a need right there. Let's look at the linebacker spot, 623 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: all right, So we're talk about running a forty three 624 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: Who the three? Who are the three linebackers you're running 625 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: out there? Go ahead, up, yeah, listen, Well, I mean 626 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: you gotta put LV out there. You gotta put Jayala 627 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: Smith out there. And we've I mean, the other best 628 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: linebacker that we've seen play is Joe Thomas. I don't 629 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: think that Shaun Lee will be here. I see him 630 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: moving into a different role. I think they need to 631 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 1: move on to the younger guys. But I mean, if 632 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: you're not gonna draft the guy, I think you give 633 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: them a shot. Right. Like I said, four three defense 634 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: is mostly about discipline, you being able to be in 635 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: your assignment and play gap control defense. And I think 636 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: that dan Quin can install this and if they have 637 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: the you know, the lengthy off season and the training 638 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: camp and they're able to really put that in and 639 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: get these guys discipline enough to play their their role. 640 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 1: I think they can be successful at it. So that's 641 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,239 Speaker 1: who I'm rolling out to the start. Who's your middle ban, 642 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,239 Speaker 1: who's your middle lineback? If you're going if you're going 643 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: middle linebacker, go ahead, go ahead? Now yeah yeah, Ever, 644 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: he was gonna be my middle linebacker because I mean, like, 645 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: I know, we worry about him banging and his shoulder 646 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: and his neck, but when you're playing a four to three, 647 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: you know, the middle linebacker is not necessarily always banging 648 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: right a lot that they're doing a lot of pulling 649 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: a lot of jet sweeps. It's not a lot of 650 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: teams that are running specifically just lead and power, so 651 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: he won't specifically have to be doing that. He would 652 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: have to play a lot of that deep Tampa Cover two, 653 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: he had to play in some pass coverage. It won't 654 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: be just head banging, uh for the entire game. So 655 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:51,239 Speaker 1: I'm putting him in Mike Church Uh. If we're going 656 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: four to three, Like like mccraiy said, I'm going, you know, 657 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: l V at the mic, I'm going m jailing at 658 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: the wheel. And I don't think you got to really 659 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: spend the high draft pick because because honestly, I mean, 660 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: I think seventy percent of the offense is in the league. 661 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: They're coming out in eleven personnel. So if you're if 662 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: you're out there in eleven personnel, you're not going to 663 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,239 Speaker 1: be in the base four three, You're gonna be in 664 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: that nickel package. So not nine times out of tend 665 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: those two linebackers, the Mic and the Will, they're gonna 666 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: be out there, you know, probably eighty percent of the game. 667 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: So for me and at four to three and that 668 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: SAM position, I think you can put maybe a Joe 669 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: Thomas in there, or you can get you know, a 670 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: later draft pick to come in there, because at nine 671 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: times at a tend of Sam is just there to 672 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: set the edge, And I think you don't need to 673 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: spend you know, high quality dollars or high draft pick 674 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: on somebody that's gonna be, you know, just out there 675 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: setting the edge maybe twenty five to thirty percent of 676 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: the snaps. So for me, you gotta go with those 677 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: two at the end of at the linebacker position, Lvee 678 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith and hopefully you know, we play gap discipline 679 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,479 Speaker 1: defense because if not, we're going to get ran off 680 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: the gym, just like we did last year. Okay, let 681 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: me go back to this whole thing of Sam. I 682 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: actually say, Mike and Will, so we're talking about those guys. 683 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: When we saw vander Rash at his best, he was 684 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: at the will so one put him over there. I think, 685 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: I think Jay, I just think Jalen might be too 686 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: small to be in there. Man. To be honest with you, 687 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: you know, we also got to have a good defensive 688 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: line in there as well, because if those if those 689 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: optive linemen are getting to the second level like they 690 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: did this past year, it don't matter who we put that. 691 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: It don't matter who we put out there, they're gonna 692 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 1: get washed away. But in all I think Jalen might 693 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: be a little bit too small. I think he's more 694 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: effective as an outside linebacker because he can come off 695 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: the edge and blitz as well. So that's why I 696 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: put him out there. Yeah, absolutely, That's that's why I 697 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: have Jalen outside because I think you could be a 698 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: little bit more creative with him, moving him around, you know, 699 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: have him out there banking number two, rushing off the edge, 700 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: running some games with the defensive line. I think I 701 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: think that's where he's most effective. It he can rush 702 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: the passer. He is athletic enough to get around that edge, 703 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: and he can play a little bit of coverage and 704 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: disguise a little bit. But I want to have him 705 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: outside and maximizing his athletic ability and keep LV on 706 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: the inside. So who do you think covers tight ends 707 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: and guys out of the background, out of the back 708 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: feel bad? Bandaresh or Jail? I think they're both terrible 709 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: at that. Yeah, they gotta get They gotta get with somebody. 710 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: They gotta get with somebody in the offseason, the Golden 711 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: foot dude or whatever. But they gotta get their coverage 712 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 1: skills on point because we saw it last year. I mean, 713 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,879 Speaker 1: they were a liability and coverage. It didn't matter who 714 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: it was, tight ends, running backs, it don't matter who 715 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,879 Speaker 1: it was. They were getting kind of routed up out there. 716 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: So they both gotta work on that and to make 717 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 1: this defense to come alive. That's dan Quinn's the Seattle 718 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: type defense. You gotta have somebody at at that linebacker 719 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 1: position that can cover the tight ends, that can cover 720 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: the backs. Because in Seattle it was kJ Wright doing 721 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,760 Speaker 1: that and he was phenomenal. He made that that defense 722 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: come alive. So we're gonna need to get better than 723 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: the coverage standpoint from the linebacker unit. Yeah, listen, I 724 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 1: think that's gonna be probably a week part of our 725 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: defense because one of the game has changed. Man. Some 726 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: of these dudes is playing running back are essentially their receivers, 727 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: their receivers coming out of the backfield. And then when 728 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: you look at guys like Travis Kelsey and Kittle, you know, 729 00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: playing tight end, these guys are receivers, right, So it's 730 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: going to be difficult for you to find that that 731 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: top notch linebacker that can really cover those type of guys. 732 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: So your scheme is gonna have to be able to 733 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 1: cover up that that that disadvantage that you have, that's 734 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: where we're gonna be lacking it. But if I'm lacking anywhere, 735 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: you know that, that's probably where I would pick right. 736 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 1: I would want a strong defensive line to put some 737 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: person on the quarterback. I want to be able to 738 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: cover on the back end, and then I will be 739 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 1: a little iffy on our linebackers and coverage. So the 740 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: review we looked at the d line right now, free 741 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: agency draft are difference to tackle upgrade there, and then 742 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,959 Speaker 1: at the linebacker spot, a coverage linebacker is something to need. 743 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,760 Speaker 1: Now let's look at the back end, all right, mccraig, 744 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: who are your starting corners? Who are you're starting? Man? 745 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: Come on, NEWI come on Newis I listen? I knew 746 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 1: you would coming to that next. And the truth is, 747 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: this is where we really really have to hit in 748 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 1: free agency or in the draft, because I'm not sure 749 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: that Xavier Woods is going to be back. You know, 750 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,919 Speaker 1: based off of the stuff that I see last year, 751 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: I would say probably not if I was if I 752 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: was the guy who was making that decision. So I 753 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,959 Speaker 1: know you got trade Munt Diggs out there, you got 754 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown. I see him on the inside, and then 755 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 1: I'm not sure who you have on the opposite corner, 756 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,320 Speaker 1: but I think that's somebody that you go find a 757 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 1: free agency, like we were talking about, if you can 758 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: find a Patrick Peterson type of guy for the right price, 759 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: I would go. I would go out there and I 760 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: would get him. I'm sure dan Quinn has somebody in 761 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: mind that that would fit in skiing perfectly. H that 762 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 1: that other safety position, man Wilson, you know, I like him. 763 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,439 Speaker 1: I see him competing, But that's somewhere where we're gonna 764 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,320 Speaker 1: have to hit in the draft and on free agency. 765 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: Our secondary is where we need the most help at Nah, 766 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: you're taking out the striker Wilson. He said no, no. 767 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 1: I said no, no, no, no. I said, he has 768 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: to compete for the job. He's urging a right to 769 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: compete for the full time starting job. But you still 770 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 1: need to go have somebody to for him to compete. 771 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 1: You can't just go out there and roll out and say, 772 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: all right, you know you're gonna be the starter. I 773 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: think the biggest competition will have to be in that 774 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: safety room. Yeah, you're right about that. I think there 775 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: has to be competition throughout the whole the whole secondary, 776 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: and we're gonna have to get it. We're gonna have 777 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 1: to hit in the draft because look, I mean, after 778 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,879 Speaker 1: we give Dak this bag we're getting ready to give him, 779 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: we'in't gonna have enough money to get anybody in free agency. 780 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 1: So that puts a lot of pressure on Will and 781 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: those guys in the scouting department. We gotta hitting the draft. 782 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: But for me, I'm leaving Wilson back there at the 783 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: strong safety. I think he proved enough as a playmaker 784 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: through his small sample size that he can be kind 785 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 1: of a cornerstone piece back there. I like what I've 786 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,879 Speaker 1: seen from Treyvon days, even though he had his ups 787 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 1: and downs, even though you know from some games he 788 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: was getting burnt like toast, but he was always competing 789 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: out there. He's always competing, and I feel like he 790 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: has a high ceiling once he gets his technique down. 791 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: Now the other side, you know, I don't see us 792 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: bringing back Woods, Cheetah Woozier or George Lewis. I just 793 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: don't see us bringing those back. I don't know. They 794 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: might get, you know, more lucrative deals somewhere else, but 795 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: they're playing. It wasn't as stellar as we would like 796 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: to see in the secondary, so I don't see them 797 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: bringing anybody back. For me at the safety position where 798 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: Xavier Woods was, I think you have to get a 799 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: better and piece back there, but not only just the 800 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: veteran impact. Think you have to get a guy that 801 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: can go red line to red line meeting that he 802 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: can contest balls on the outside that the corner is 803 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: supposed to have. You need that Earl Thomas type guy, 804 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: but it doesn't have to break the bank. I mean 805 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: there's guys like Tayshaun Gibson. There's guys like Trey Boston 806 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: out there who won't break the bank, but they're athletic enough, 807 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 1: in virtutile enough at that whole safety to really make 808 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: this defense come alive. Now, the other parts, if you've 809 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 1: got a good Nickel and Anthony Brown, and I think 810 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to hit in that draft for that 811 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 1: other corner. I think you're gonna have to do it 812 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: because we can't get any high price corners or anybody 813 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 1: that makes his defense come alive outside of maybe Richard Sherman, 814 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 1: but I think he lost a couple steps and I 815 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: think he'd be a liability in the past game with 816 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 1: this scheme. So for me, you got a hit in 817 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: the draft on that other corner and hopefully we can 818 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: make it come alive. Listen, listen, I know we keep saying, 819 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: we keep talking about the money in the salary camp 820 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 1: and how much we'll have left after that gets his 821 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 1: and if they end up paying them, it's gonna be 822 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: some guys that's take us some major pay cuts and 823 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 1: will not be on the squad because let me tell 824 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: you something, the money man they're gonna find a way 825 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 1: to free up some cash so they can go make 826 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,439 Speaker 1: some moves in free agency. One thing the Cowboys having 827 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: done in the you know, in recent years, is be 828 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: big players in free agency. Right. I think we got 829 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: Brandon Card for like fifty mile way back in twenty twelve, 830 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 1: last thirteen, and we hadn't done much since. And I 831 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: think I think that affects us a lot because you 832 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 1: see a lot of the teams that end up making 833 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: it a long way into the Super Bowl, they are 834 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: active in free agency. Right. They don't just promote from inside. 835 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: They go out and they look at other teams and 836 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: talent that these guys have, and they bring those guys 837 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,399 Speaker 1: in to be effective on their squad. So I think 838 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,439 Speaker 1: this is a year where we found a way to 839 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 1: bring at least one one impactful player in in free agency. 840 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: All right. So when you talk about free agency and 841 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: you're talking about safeties, here Justin Simmons of Denver is 842 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: going to be a free agent. He is repped by 843 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: das guy Todd France. He didn't get a deal done 844 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: for him. So there's one guy free safety and we 845 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: know to Quinn, I hear you, But to make the 846 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: dan Quinn defense. Run you need that free safety. He 847 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 1: had Earl Thomas over there with the Seahawks, and he 848 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: also got to the Super Bowl UM with a guy 849 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: like Ricardo Allen. Now, Ricardo Allen is that quarterback on 850 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 1: that Atlanta defense. He's most likely going to be a 851 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,760 Speaker 1: cap casualty as he's expected to make eight million dollars. 852 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: I got that from Orlando Ledbetter, who covers covers the 853 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcon so um, and that may be a guy 854 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: to look at it free agency because he knows the defense. 855 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: So to me, and we spoke about this before here 856 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 1: on the player's Lounge. If you can bring in someone 857 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: who's a veteran player who understands how to run that defense, 858 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: that's a help to everyone else. So maybe that's a 859 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: guy Ricardo Allen to think about if you're the Cowboys 860 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 1: in free agency, especially if you don't want to pay 861 00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 1: for Justin Simmons. Just my thought, but clearly, just just 862 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: a review from what you guys are telling me. Defensive 863 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 1: tackles in need they need to look at and free 864 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:11,760 Speaker 1: agent sly slash the draft. A coverage linebacker is a need. 865 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: One quarter opposite digs and then a free safety. But 866 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 1: that's I'm not I want you to be looking at. 867 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: I'm not giving you a coverage linebacker, right. We got 868 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,080 Speaker 1: to one's the first round pick. One just got paid. 869 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 1: They're going to be the guys on the field. I 870 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 1: don't see us bringing in the player that that knocks 871 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,399 Speaker 1: one of those guys off the field on third down. 872 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 1: I think I think those will be the two guys 873 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: on there. I think we're just gonna have to work 874 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,720 Speaker 1: on their coverage and waste to help him out. Now, Okay, 875 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 1: so Danny will push back. I'll push back on it here, Danny, 876 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 1: what's the one thing we've seen about Laton vandrexs You 877 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 1: can't count on for sixteen games, So that's gonna be 878 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: something you need to look at. Old. Hey, come on, 879 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,439 Speaker 1: so when I say that about Tyren Smith, y'all give me, y'all, 880 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,479 Speaker 1: y'all give me hell about when I say this about 881 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 1: Tyren Smith not being able to be relied upon. But 882 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 1: now you're talking about il Vie. I mean Ilvie with 883 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 1: just this season. I mean yea, Thomas Hiller.

I'm here to 932 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: respond what you're saying. Okay, My issue about you trying 933 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 1: to replace Tyrant Smith is only here you're talking about 934 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: doing it with the tenth overall pick in the draft 935 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 1: that I'm saying no too. That is when what I 936 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:21,960 Speaker 1: pushed back on. You want to sit up here and 937 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: find a tackling round three or four fun, but not 938 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 1: at ten. I'm not. I am adamantly opposed as at 939 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: first or second round draft pick being used on anything 940 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 1: but defense. Dan Quinn needs some help. They need some 941 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,479 Speaker 1: walking starters. So that is my thing there. Okay, floor 942 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: is yours. This makes no sense to me. It makes 943 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: it makes no sense if you're going to replace a 944 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 1: guy like Tyron Smith, who has been a staple and 945 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: most important player for the I guess for the last 946 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,839 Speaker 1: six seven years on your officsive line. You can replace 947 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 1: them with a third rounder. No, you need to have 948 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 1: a guy that is I for sure walking the door starter, 949 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,760 Speaker 1: because you are if you draft them in the first round, 950 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 1: you are replacing Tyren Smith. You're not grooming him to 951 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 1: replace him in the next two or three years. You're 952 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 1: getting rid of So I'm still going offensive line in 953 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 1: the first round. I don't see that. If you pick 954 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 1: a defensive tackle in the first name, go find some 955 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 1: film and show me a defensive tackle work. Pick team corner. 956 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 1: We need a corner. We need a veteran corners round. 957 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 1: I don't know about that. We do not need to 958 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 1: We do not need a second year player who just 959 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: got toasted his whole first year and then another rookie 960 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: coming in as a two started corners for this season 961 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 1: and expect to be some guys that if it's stopping people, 962 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: that's why you the vet safety and you get your 963 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,399 Speaker 1: get you a vet corner. But that's gonna that's gonna 964 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 1: be like your fourth corner in the fifth corner, mainly 965 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 1: special teams. We do not need a cover linebacker in 966 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: the first round. And there's no way we can go 967 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 1: offense with the way this defense before. I mean, it's 968 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 1: crazy that's him, but Church that that's because you believe 969 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 1: it was the players, and I believe it was the 970 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,800 Speaker 1: coach I mean, and obviously the top of the organization 971 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: agrees with me because most of that coaching staff is 972 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 1: no longer here and most of the players and most 973 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 1: of the players are still here. So I mean, you know, 974 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:12,360 Speaker 1: I mean, in order to pay back, we're gonna have 975 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 1: to get rid of a lot of the players. Here 976 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 1: they go, here we go, man go. Man. We seen it, 977 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 1: We've seen it. We we got without a doubt, without 978 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 1: a doubt. Now listen, it's it's it's church most now 979 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 1: chill out knew it. It's church fun. You don't have 980 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,240 Speaker 1: the draft, the draft capital that we need, mister less child. 981 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 1: We should have been We should have had the third 982 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,399 Speaker 1: pick in the draft and been able to trade back 983 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 1: for multiple first rounds with nine. Let's try to make 984 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs and go send me nine and end up 985 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 1: and pick number ten with nothing to show for it. 986 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 1: They still got to pay that forty million dollars.

If you 993 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:21,320 Speaker 1: believe that they need to go get an offensive tackle 994 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 1: at ten in the first round, as McCray is saying, 995 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:26,959 Speaker 1: if you're if you're on board with that, go ahead, 996 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 1: let me know. Um. As I said, I'm gonna say 997 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 1: it till the cows come home. This team needs help defensively, 998 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,800 Speaker 1: I said before on the podcast, And casey, anyone forgot 999 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 1: what I would do on the offensive line next year 1000 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:45,280 Speaker 1: is put Connor McGovern at guard, take out Carnor Williams 1001 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:48,400 Speaker 1: and make Carnor Williams my swing. Carna Williams is my 1002 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,800 Speaker 1: swing in case something happens to Smith, something happens to Collins. 1003 00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 1: You also have Terrence Steele.

This defense wasn't 1006 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 1: even adequate last year. For most of the year, they 1007 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 1: had the worst run defense in the NFL that finished 1008 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 1: thirty first in the league.

If something happened to Collins or something happened 1013 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: to Smith, I'm gonna tell you something that that is 1014 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 1: almost one hundred percent for sure, something will happen to 1015 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 1: Smith if you if you go based off the last 1016 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 1: two or three years, somebody happened layout Collins. Actually even 1017 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 1: last last the last four yes, Collins. Collins didn't even 1018 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 1: make it out of training.

But um, 1072 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 1: hey man, it is what it. But what I find 1073 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 1: funny is everybody clear.

But the National Football League, dude, coul 1077 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 1: beat up here cutting your hair, all opinion, touching you 1078 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:49,399 Speaker 1: and you're good to go on side.

Dude, 1080 00:52:52,600 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 1: you get here, it's you're right, you do. The selective, 1081 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 1: selective integrity of this is absolutely hilarious. Here, it is hilarious. 1082 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, okay, yeah, you're right. Money money, money will 1083 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 1: not stand in the way of running dudes out here. 1084 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 1: So you know, after the game, we probably probably watch 1085 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 1: five dudes test for COVID after the game and just 1086 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:22,879 Speaker 1: you know, go from there, all right, let's make these 1087 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,799 Speaker 1: picks here. Okay, let's make these picks. Um. We did 1088 00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 1: the championship picks, and UM, I went out on a 1089 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: limb and went with with Green Bay to lose and 1090 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay ended up getting that dub and I went 1091 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,120 Speaker 1: with Kansas City. Um, what did you guys go with 1092 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,720 Speaker 1: during the championship game Championship weekend? Did you guys? I followed? 1093 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 1: I followed Church. I'm blow this dude, man goodness every 1094 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 1: time Church, I have it right here. Very predicted Green 1095 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,040 Speaker 1: Bay would beat Tampa Bay thirty one twenty one, and 1096 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 1: then Church, you predicted Buffalo was gonna win at Kansas 1097 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,840 Speaker 1: City by point twenty eight twenty seven. D Mac you 1098 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:11,240 Speaker 1: had you had green Bay winning at home over Tampa 1099 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:13,840 Speaker 1: thirty to twenty four, and he had Buffalo winning at 1100 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:17,799 Speaker 1: Kansas City thirty five thirty one. I had Tampa as 1101 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,920 Speaker 1: a twenty three twenty win at Green Bay, and I 1102 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 1: had Kansas City with a twenty seven twenty four win. 1103 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,400 Speaker 1: So now it is on to the Super Bowl for 1104 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 1: our final pick of the year. The Chiefs are favored 1105 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 1: by three points at Tampa. The Bucks getting the Super 1106 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 1: Bowl in their home turf first time you've ever seen that, 1107 00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:40,319 Speaker 1: So nostre Damas, I'm going to allow you to make 1108 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: your prediction. First. Here what you got, man, Like, it's 1109 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:47,839 Speaker 1: hard to bet against Brady, but I just can't see 1110 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:51,279 Speaker 1: it happening. Man. Kansas City is just too prolific with 1111 00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 1: my Homes out there, the connection he has with Kelsey 1112 00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:57,359 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill. And then if for some reason you're able 1113 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,760 Speaker 1: to get those two he oh, he got Sammy Walkings 1114 00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:01,840 Speaker 1: over here, he got Robinson over here. I mean, he 1115 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:05,319 Speaker 1: just has too many weapons. I understand he's missing both 1116 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 1: of his tackles, but with this dude, it just seems 1117 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,359 Speaker 1: like nothing can stop him. Right now, my heart wants 1118 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 1: to say Brady, but you know, I gotta go with 1119 00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 1: the reel right now. I think my Homes gets his 1120 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 1: second ring, Hitchens gets his second ring, Damien Wilson former 1121 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys get their second ring. I gotta go Kansas City 1122 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 1: in this one thirty one to seventeen. Oh, look, let 1123 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 1: me tell you something. I would never again bet against 1124 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. I wouldn't bet against Michael Jordan. I wouldn't 1125 00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 1: bet against Lebron James. So, like you said, Church, that 1126 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: missing the two tackles. I think that Todd Bowls learned 1127 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:45,759 Speaker 1: his lesson from the from their end season matchup, and 1128 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 1: I don't see him letting the same thing happen that 1129 00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: he had let happened previously. What Tyree Hill went off 1130 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 1: of two fifty one fantasy football matchups for almost anybody 1131 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,720 Speaker 1: who had him on their roster. I don't see that happening. 1132 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 1: I see, my elders. You got Lenafo that coming up playoff, 1133 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 1: Lenny running the ball was very very strong force. You 1134 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,360 Speaker 1: also got Ronald Jones back there. I think they figure 1135 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 1: out the way to keep the ball out of Patrick 1136 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 1: with the Holmes hands just enough for them to outscore 1137 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs twenty eight to twenty four. Oh 1138 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,360 Speaker 1: m m. I don't see it happening, big dab. But 1139 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 1: we'll see Tyresten Tyreek Hill, not Tyree Hill not going 1140 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 1: off on him like that again. Man, Listen, if he do, 1141 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,520 Speaker 1: ty Bod, he should not have a head coaching job. 1142 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,319 Speaker 1: Carlton Carlton names better hope not, because I mean, if 1143 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,920 Speaker 1: he gets gets skurt like that again, man, we may 1144 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: never see him again in the league. I mean, you 1145 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:43,200 Speaker 1: can't give up two hundred and some yards and if 1146 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 1: you look at the highlights. He was at the back 1147 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:48,320 Speaker 1: end of almost every one of those toasty those touchdowns, 1148 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 1: So me magic. The game plan was horrible. The game 1149 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 1: plan was Tyree Hill line up at number three and 1150 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 1: run an override with no help to safety dropped down 1151 00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:59,759 Speaker 1: to cover the back who didn't even really release for 1152 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:01,799 Speaker 1: a deep route. Yeah, I don't I don't see Tyle 1153 00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 1: Bowls letting that type of stuff happened. I see my guy, 1154 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: Devin White. Since were naming guys, LSU got Devin White, 1155 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:10,160 Speaker 1: LSU got Lenny And you know, I'm saying they come 1156 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:13,320 Speaker 1: out there this week and they get their first Super 1157 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 1: Bowl win. Man, Devin White will change the game. He 1158 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:17,840 Speaker 1: will make some stuff happen. You'll see him get a 1159 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 1: couple of sacks. You'll see him stopping it was a 1160 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,280 Speaker 1: layre stopping um lavy on Bill. He will be a 1161 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 1: difference maker in that game this Sunday. The only chance 1162 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:30,960 Speaker 1: they got is if Pierre Paul and Shaq Bard, if 1163 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 1: they can't get going, if they can't just go ahead 1164 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 1: and run over these backup tackles, then they got a chance. 1165 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,240 Speaker 1: But if if that, if they can't get there, it's 1166 00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 1: a rap. It's a rat I mean, listen, it wasn't 1167 00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 1: a blowout when they played in the first time, even 1168 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:45,880 Speaker 1: with Tyrek Hill having two fifty eyes, So that was 1169 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: a blowup that they what you got for us new 1170 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:58,400 Speaker 1: By the way, if you have not listened to the 1171 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,360 Speaker 1: Huddle and Flow podcast, asked when Steve Wish and Jim 1172 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:07,120 Speaker 1: Trotter talking to Todd Bowles, it is absolutely a hilarious listen. 1173 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 1: Todd dropped so much knowledge. But he also talks about 1174 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 1: his coaching at more House College and going with Doug 1175 00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:19,000 Speaker 1: Williams from Morehouse to Grambling, and he talked about how 1176 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,640 Speaker 1: and he was at Grambling he had to work security 1177 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:25,439 Speaker 1: at a juvenile concert on campus. It's like I didn't 1178 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 1: know it. I didn't even know what the music was. 1179 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 1: And then when he was at moore House, he said, 1180 00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:30,680 Speaker 1: we had we didn't have a lot of great athletes, 1181 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 1: where we had smart guys. And he said he told 1182 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:35,440 Speaker 1: one guy's like, I want to see your eyes when 1183 00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:38,000 Speaker 1: you make a play. And he said, after he said that, 1184 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,320 Speaker 1: the kid runs off, takes off his helmet and walks 1185 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 1: up to him and he shows him his eyes. And 1186 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:47,439 Speaker 1: he said that Doug Wall was like, man, I can't 1187 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 1: do this. Man, I can't do this, but his coaching 1188 00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:54,000 Speaker 1: journey and what he's done at Tampa Bay and then 1189 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 1: what he did with the Jets, I mean, it's absolutely fantastic. 1190 00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 1: And he talks about playing on a Super Bowl team 1191 00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 1: with Doug william when they beat the Denver Broncos Super 1192 00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: Bowl twenty two. So if you haven't heard that podcast, 1193 00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:06,840 Speaker 1: it is absolutely sensational. I think his Bucketeer defense is 1194 00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:08,960 Speaker 1: going to be very good on Sunday. I really do, 1195 00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:12,040 Speaker 1: especially with the tackles. The two starting tackles for Kansas 1196 00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 1: City out. One of the tackles in that game is 1197 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,439 Speaker 1: gonna be Mike Rimmers. DeMarcus Ware and Von Miller tore 1198 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 1: up Mike Rimmers and Michael Or when the Carolina Panthers 1199 00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 1: ended up playing Deniver the Super Bowl fifty. So they're 1200 00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:25,760 Speaker 1: going to have Kansas CEA is gonna have to find 1201 00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 1: a way to get these guys some help. I'm gonna 1202 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 1: go with two other LSU guys, and I think we 1203 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,600 Speaker 1: need to be talking about on Super Sunday, Clyde Edwards, 1204 00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 1: a Layer and the Honey Badger. I think these two 1205 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: guys are gonna be able to help make a difference 1206 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 1: in this football game. I'm gonna trust Andy Reid and 1207 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:42,680 Speaker 1: Eric being to me to figure out a way to 1208 00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: help these tackles out in Patrick Mahomes to use his 1209 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 1: feet a little bit and try to put him in 1210 00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:50,040 Speaker 1: motion a little bit. To get away from the fact 1211 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 1: that you're gonna have some some some pretty good Shaq 1212 00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:55,720 Speaker 1: Barrett and JPP coming after him. I'm going to go 1213 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:58,640 Speaker 1: with Kansas City to come back and win this one. 1214 00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 1: Twenty four, twenty one. I think Tom Brady is going 1215 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 1: to have a mediocre football game. He had three interceptions 1216 01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 1: in the second half against Green Bay. Who who who 1217 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:10,880 Speaker 1: gets away with that in a playoff game? He got 1218 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:13,160 Speaker 1: away with it because a bucketeer defense was that good. 1219 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 1: Kansas City just finds ready to get it down too though. 1220 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:18,880 Speaker 1: You know he threw he threw three tugs too. Isn't 1221 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:21,280 Speaker 1: that luck? You know what? You get that thing away? 1222 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:25,280 Speaker 1: You know what he did? He was white James, Okay, 1223 01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 1: that's all Tom Brady wasn't. And here's three Davis did 1224 01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: that what James gave him the very thing They ran 1225 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Javis Witchington game thirty, James game thirty for thirty and 1226 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,560 Speaker 1: didn't make the playoffs. Tom Brady and come on, man, 1227 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 1: I can't believe Javis wiz Man. We gotta end Ivory 1228 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:53,720 Speaker 1: Jams Tom about Ivory James, and that ain't gonna work. 1229 01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:57,480 Speaker 1: I just think the whole risk getting no biscuit thing, um, 1230 01:00:57,640 --> 01:01:00,160 Speaker 1: the turnover thing. I think it's gonna gonna gonna get 1231 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 1: him in and give me the honey Badger to return one. 1232 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 1: By the way, okay, honey Badger would pick six in 1233 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 1: this one. So twenty four, actually make it twenty four 1234 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:10,600 Speaker 1: twenty three. I'm gonna go to a one point win 1235 01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 1: for Kansas City twenty four twenty three. How about that, fellas, 1236 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:19,960 Speaker 1: stop stop switching the scores up. Don't don't Texas. Don't 1237 01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 1: Texas after they're talking about you switching the scores.
