And did 11 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: someone hold the press conference and tell us that Bell 12 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 1: is inactive? Oh? Maybe that was happening. Bill is inactive today. 13 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: He was one of the he didn't make it to 14 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: the forty eight man Rock. There you go, There you go. 15 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: After the Cowboys nineteen to nine lost to Kanzie City Chiefs. 16 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: And I'm sure Everson, we all not only had that 17 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: picked the winner right, but we had the score right too, 18 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: right man. I was so off. I mean I was 19 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: as off as you can be. Not only did my 20 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: score so way off my pick to click. I mean, 21 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: Paula didn't even really hardly touch the ball. Seems like, 22 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: you know, well he he had I think he had 23 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: the most carrious did he really well? Let's see, I 24 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: was when I look, I was just so lost in 25 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: the boredom of the game itself. See here, here's why 26 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,559 Speaker 1: you lost tract of him. I think his first carry 27 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: was thirty one yards ye, and then he had six 28 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: carries for nineteen crazy, so that's three yards a shot. 29 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: Zeke had nine carries for thirty two yards, and he 30 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: was nursing a banged up knee that he suffered in 31 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: the first half. It was the same knee sprain that 32 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: he's been dealing with, and they had to kind of 33 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: you know, regulate his snaps and he didn't get as 34 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: many stamps as he his knee or his ankle or both. Well. 35 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: I was told knee how he said in a press 36 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: conference something about the twisted ankle, But when I talked 37 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: to the medical folks after the game, it was basically 38 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: irritating the knee that's been bothered him now for a 39 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: good three weeks. Yes, yeah, I was going to say 40 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: a month. So what were your overall impressions of what 41 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: took place. You know, I gotta say, we had so 42 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: much hype related to this game. We're looking at the 43 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: numbers by both teams, especially even the potential of this 44 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: quarterback matchup that was just going to create fireworks throughout 45 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: the entire stadium. And to look at what happened. The 46 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: lack of output really, to me by both teams, especially 47 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: by both quarterbacks, it made for a very I just say, uneventful. 48 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,399 Speaker 1: It was an uneventful affair. Can I call it that? Yes? Absolutely, 49 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: because it was. I was so bored, not just frustrated, 50 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: like I said, I definitely frustrated, but definitely bored. Yeah. 51 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: And here was the weird thing. And this is what 52 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: I wrote about in my column this morning. Had we 53 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: had you told me before the game that the Cowboys 54 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: would hold Kansas City to nineteen points, Cowboys win, Cowboys. 55 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: When if you had have told me they held the 56 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs to just two touchdowns, Cowboys winboy. And 57 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: if you had told me Patrick Mahomes is only going 58 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: to complete twenty three or thirty seven passes for two 59 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty yards, get sacked three times, intercepted once, 60 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: and finished with a seventy one point nine quarterback blowing 61 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 1: them out. It's a runaway, right, that's it. It would 62 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: be a runaway. And had you told me that the 63 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: Cowboys would not score a touchdown for the first time 64 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: in twenty seven games and Dak would only throw for 65 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,799 Speaker 1: two hundred and sixteen yards and all they would score 66 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: is nine points, I'd have told you you lost your mind. 67 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: That's it. That's true. But all that took place, and 68 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: that's how the Cowboys ended up losing the game nineteen 69 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: to nine and falling to seven and three, but still 70 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: has the second best record in the high for the 71 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: second best record in the NFC, and no matter what 72 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: happens tonight, that's going to go out throughout the next 73 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: into the next ball. And as a matter of fact, 74 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: it's the second best record in the NFL because everybody 75 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: in the NFC, I mean in the AFC as least 76 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 1: lost three games. Is in um Tennessee eight and three, 77 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: Baltimore seven and three, Kansas City now seven and four, 78 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they're in first place. Nobody 79 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: wants first place, right because as soon as you get there, 80 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 1: then you have a hiccup. And it's not just a hiccup. 81 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's it's just straight up barfing, you know what 82 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So I thought the best summary of that game, 83 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: better than Mike column, was what Andy Reid had to 84 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: say after the game. I don't know if you They 85 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: asked him if if this was a statement game for 86 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and as a response was every week is 87 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: crazy in this league. So I'm not sure there are 88 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: any statements. There's not a lot of consistency going out 89 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: right now amongst the NFL. Here, every week is a 90 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: big time challenge. I'm talking about wins and losses haven't 91 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: been consistent. There are ups and downs, and teams are 92 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: favored and they get beat I mean, it's crazy crazy. 93 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: There you go, that's the best I thought. I was like, 94 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: I was trying to write and sum it up in 95 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: my words, and I go, no, I'm just gonna let 96 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: them do it for me. That's it. Right. Well, let's 97 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: look at the top teams. Buffalo, I don't know what 98 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: the heck is going on with them. To me, they 99 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: are the only team that's more baffling than the Dallas 100 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: Cowboys right now. They've got all this talent and then 101 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you find these weaknesses that pop 102 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,559 Speaker 1: up out of nowhere, like like whac a mole or something. 103 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: So when you when you when you go from one 104 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: week to the next, you're up here and everyone's on 105 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: the badwagon. And as soon as you lose, not just 106 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, right, as soon as you lose, whether you're Buffalo, 107 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: whether you're Tampa, where you're the Saints, you know, everyone's like, 108 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: now you are, you are vilified for the rest of 109 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: the season, of course, until the next week comes, and 110 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: then we have a whole nother narative. So Buffalo, not 111 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: only do they lose, Indianapolis beats them forty one to 112 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: fifteen at home. The Packers get beat by Minnesota thirty 113 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: four thirty one jack against us right, and that game 114 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: wasn't even close till the end when the Packers came 115 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: back and tied it up. Baltimore supposed to be great, right, 116 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: seven and three, Well, they struggled to beat Chicago by 117 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: a field goal sixteen. Back up Andy Dalton coming in Carolina, Oh, 118 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,559 Speaker 1: Cams back, They're gonna get righted right. Washington beats them 119 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: twenty seven twenty one. Feast baby. The Chargers, who we 120 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: had given up on them. Right, they beat Pittsburgh forty 121 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: one thirty seven, So yeah, it just kind of continued. 122 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: Then you know, there's the Cowboys following suit with their loss. 123 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: New Orleans can't win a game now, right, Philadelphia forty 124 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: or twenty nine? Hey, watch out for the NFC East. 125 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: Watch out for the NFC East, and especially those Philadelphia Eagles. Yes, 126 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: that's something we can talk about another time. But they're scoring, 127 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: they are scoring, they are winning, and there they are 128 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: winning with guts. I mean, that's that's the thing that 129 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: I was hoping for yesterday. And I always talked about 130 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: my admiration for the Ravens teams like Pittsburgh to where 131 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: it got so much going on all the time, quarterbacks out, 132 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 1: COVID whatever, you know, age, you know, all kind of excuses. 133 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: He trying to get rid of, the coach sending down 134 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: to college football. He's cussing out all the press, and 135 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: here we are. You know, every week, something silly happens, 136 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: and it just doesn't make any sense to me how 137 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: you can be so up and seem invincible. And I'm 138 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: not just talking Cowboys, but all of these teams that 139 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: are supposed to be They talked about Josh Allen in 140 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: Week four. Oh, he was an MVP already running away. 141 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, then Jets, Jets, the Jets come along. I mean, 142 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: it's not like he was handicapped by anything. They have 143 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: his team. I mean, we got a few injuries like 144 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: everyone else. But you don't even score a touchdown at 145 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: home against the Jets. I think it was a home game. 146 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: And for them to be faulting like that, and for 147 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys to be faulting, I just sat up there 148 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: yesterday and I just shook my head and it still 149 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 1: doesn't bring me solence that that other teams are going 150 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: through it. That does not make me feel better. It's 151 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: an excuse, but I gotta wonder what are we doing 152 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: to where we are so inconsistent and every week in 153 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: this league, you hit the reset button, right, So tell 154 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: me your thoughts on why you think this Cowboy offense 155 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: just faltered again. It's Kansas City offensive line line. It's 156 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: just it is what it is. That defensive line came 157 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: out is amazing. The husual suspects with Jones. We knew 158 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: Jones was going to be a problem, right, We talked 159 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: about this last week. He's got to be the AFC 160 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the way. Here we go again putting 161 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: somebody in the problem. Right, we just we can't help ourselves. 162 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: We're going the road. We just make somebody famous. Three 163 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: and a half we do. Somebody told me that he 164 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: did one of the postgame shows on TV and they 165 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: said he had three and a half sacks. He goes, no, 166 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: I had four, and they go, no, officially, you had three. 167 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,839 Speaker 1: He goes, well, somebody's gonna have to answer to where 168 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: my other half sack? And I think forced to fumble. Well, 169 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 1: look here's his line. They're still trying to block. They 170 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 1: can't find him. So he ends up with five tackles, 171 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: three and a half sacks for twenty yards not not 172 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: just at the line of scrimmage, right, two tackles for losses, 173 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: three quarterback hits, one past defense he deflected it at 174 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: the line, one force fumble, and one fumble recovered. Who 175 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: does better than right? Yeah, And unfortunately for Micah Parsons, 176 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: he might have been the NFC Defensive Player of the Week. 177 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: That would be Parsons would be number two in this regard, 178 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 1: right because he had a hell of a game. It 179 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: just needed them to win. Our defense was amazing, Yes, 180 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: they really were, and I was impressed by them, because 181 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: when you have an offense that's so inadequate and you 182 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: have these letdowns of the turnovers and interceptions in bad places, 183 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: Dak's interception to Ceedee Lamb. It just lets you know 184 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: when you do something that is ill advised, it can 185 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: cause dominoes to fall. Never it's no way that you're 186 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: supposed to throw an interception in that in that part 187 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: of the field when we have a chance to have 188 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: points or at least kick a field goal. Gotta have 189 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 1: at least the foot points you're gonna get something. It 190 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: had you kicked the field goal there and you got twelve, 191 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: you're always within one score on score of tying the game, 192 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: and we had just that. It was a momentum changer 193 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 1: before that to put us in position to where we are. 194 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: So now you you just can't throw an interception right there. 195 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: And it's not just a guy made the great play. 196 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: It's an OK play, but you threw it to him, 197 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: not to the receiver. CD left plenty of room on 198 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: the outside, plenty of room on the outside for him 199 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: to look, and he was not. He wasn't ahead of him. 200 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: But if you could go back show the faith. You've 201 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: got all kind of answers for that. He was feeling it. 202 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: He was hearing. Let's they seeing ghosts or hearing ghosts, 203 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 1: that's what That's the way it was, because they were 204 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: whether they're blitzing or not. Kansas City had constant pressure 205 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: on him. Sacked five times. I believe I saw where 206 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: he was hit eight times. And this tells you how 207 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: much pressure he's under. They had nine passes defense. That 208 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: means they're getting their hands on his best. So he's 209 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: trying to fit in. So to me, at least I will, 210 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, give him five at one point, but yeah, 211 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: at least four. And look, here's the deal. You know, 212 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: it's very noble of them to rest on this next 213 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: man up thing, but as I always say, the reason 214 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: they're the next man up and at some point you 215 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 1: get diminishing returns, right, So you know everybody was ready 216 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 1: to put Terrence Steele in the ring of honor. Well, 217 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: they better get him off the left hand. That's crazy, right, 218 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: I saw one point first one. Well, yeah, I don't 219 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: know what is going on. I don't know if he 220 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 1: heard the snap or they were on a silent count 221 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: and he didn't have it right. Oh man, he was 222 00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: still standing. He's still counting everybody else it was Clark, right, Yeah, 223 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: he's sacking back and he's still stand. Uh man. When 224 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: when you got games like that and you see a 225 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: unit having the problems, First of all, Tylon Smith should 226 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 1: get paid whatever he asked for, any time he asked 227 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: for it. I hate to see my boy Zach struggling. 228 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: He gave up one to Chris Jones. Yeah yeah, I mean, 229 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: but you can still see that even when he when 230 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: he didn't give one up, it was just he was 231 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: part of the unit that was being overwhelmed and creating 232 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: that uh claustrophobic look that Dak had back there, creating 233 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: the ghost. Yeah, there you go. Lele Collins struggled and 234 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: you know, while they didn't have a penalty at left guard, 235 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: I don't know that McGovern. You know, times when you 236 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: better take a penalty right the way, that's the way 237 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: that he was. I'm not sure if you know, Okay, 238 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: good on the better against the penalties right, And I'm 239 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: not sure he played better than Williams there. He's strong. 240 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: None of them played well, let's just be real. None 241 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: of them played well. So we did not improve on 242 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: the offensive line it off and I understand there was 243 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: you know, the crowd can get noisy there and you 244 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: have trouble with the snap count. But still he had 245 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: to do it better, you know. And Dak, I mean 246 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: Dak Zack stood up after the game and said, you know, 247 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: if you had told me that the defense was going 248 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: to play this well, we were gonna win. And we 249 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: didn't hold up our end of the bargain meeting the offense. 250 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: And he put it on the offense. Andy, shit, that's 251 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: good that he did, because you can't you can't play 252 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: it off on anybody else. I mean, that was the 253 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: he spoke the obvious, but sometimes you have to go 254 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: ahead and admit to that. I just really thought that 255 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: as much as we are strong in so many areas, 256 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: it was that game was still within our reach. And 257 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: when you talk about Dak, we'll talk about Dak's elius. 258 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: You know, the pressure that was that Dak was getting. 259 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: Let's just be real. He's had pressure before. I mean 260 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: I heard them say it before this season started. The 261 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: number one passer under pressure. Yes, that's what he's known for. 262 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: But not yesterday. For some reason, it seemed to get 263 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: to him more than any other team. It couldn't have 264 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: been the crowd. Cowboys offense has been out. There's so 265 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: many This is nothing new exactly. So the only thing 266 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: that's new is the fact that we couldn't perform. And 267 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: I was extremely surprised. Like I said, not just that 268 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: you made the mistakes, but in the crucial areas that 269 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: they were made. You cannot You cannot let anyone but 270 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: ceedee Lamb have a chance at that ball go into 271 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: the end zone. Now look at the domino effect. He's 272 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: got to play defense. Now, now he's got the concussion, 273 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: you know, he's got to go. And then they get 274 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: the ball to start the second half. Yeah, so we're 275 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: gonna come up with some key points in this game. 276 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: I've got about four points where the Cowboys had an 277 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: opportunity to take advantage and the fact that next man 278 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: up at wide receiver didn't work out so well either. 279 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: Will return to mix shots in a moment in the 280 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: SWBC podcast studio drop the mortgage.

We 334 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: found out after our show that Amari Cooper had tested 335 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: positive for COVID and now he's probably missing ten days, 336 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: which will include at least Thanksgiving, and since he's not vaccinated, 337 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: he uh, it will be ten days and he's got 338 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: a test negative twice before he can get back. So 339 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: so we're starting we're talking about starting from Friday Friday, correct, Yes, 340 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: and that gets into the week of the New Orleans Yeah, man, 341 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: should and you have to recover. Yes, And as we've 342 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: seen nobody has recovered earlier is close contact ask but 343 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: guys that have had it that tested positive have not recovered. 344 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: It's been ten days to two weeks. Yes, it seems like. 345 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: So you don't have him, you get that surprise on Friday. 346 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: So okay, you know Cedric Wilson's gonna start. But here's 347 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: what happens. And I always say this, Okay, that's great, 348 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: but now one injury away and now what Now you're 349 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: down to your fifth wide receiver, meaning like Ceedee Lamb happens, 350 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, and then Ceedee Lamb suffers the concussion 351 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: at the end of the first half, and now it's 352 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson and Noah Brown and then Malik Turner and 353 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup is the guy that well, if you're the Chiefs, 354 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: who you worried about Michael Gallup right, and he was, 355 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: you know, doing as much as he could do this, 356 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: but then the drops started. You know, Noah had one, 357 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: Cedric had one or two, and it just compounded. You 358 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: got to have your guys out there and I know, oh, 359 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: everybody wants to you know the next guy up. Okay, fine, 360 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: that hurt also, So you had the combination of your 361 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 1: offensive line struggling, meaning your quarterback was struggling, and now 362 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 1: you've dipped into the depth at your wide receiver position. Yes, 363 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: so uh look I've got I went through this. The 364 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: opportunities they had, even though they struggled offensively, right, whether 365 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: they end up with like two hundred and sixty total yards, 366 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 1: it was just something ridiculous. First play of the game, 367 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: they got a touchdown. If you were going there, first play, 368 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: what is happening? Seven? Nothing? Michael Gallop smokes, showed various 369 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:19,719 Speaker 1: ward and Dak overthrows a man. How do you overthrow 370 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: Michael Gallop and badly? O? Yes? Right, yes, Now, I 371 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 1: don't know if the win was playing. All I know 372 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 1: on the kickoffs when they were kicking off that direction, 373 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: so it would have been we were in the press 374 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 1: box to our left, they were going in the end zone. 375 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: When they were kicking off to the right, they were 376 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: hanging up right. So I don't know, but that would 377 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,679 Speaker 1: have meant the wind was coming out of the east. 378 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 1: I think that didn't make sense. What what did Dad 379 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: say about it? He didn't I'm sure he wasn't confronted. 380 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: He wasn't gonna use an excuse. Well, I just want 381 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: to know what he said end or no, No, he 382 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: on the plate. Oh I missed him. Yeah, I gotta 383 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: hit that. I gotta hit that. So then the third 384 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys possession, they're now down nine nothing, first and ten 385 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: at the Kansas City fifteen fifteen. They end up with 386 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: a field goal. Yeah, can't have that happened? What happens 387 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 1: right close? You are delusion. Then at the end of 388 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: the second quarter, they get the sack fumble from Parsons, 389 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: they recover, they get the ball at the Kansas City 390 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: did not tell you you did? Yes, and they drive 391 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: to a first and ten at the Kansas City twenty eight. 392 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: Now there's only twenty one seconds, but Dak went for 393 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 1: it all And that was the intercepted deception that you 394 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 1: were talking about. You just can't happen. We move along 395 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 1: to the third quarter. Cowboys first possession. Um, you know 396 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: they're still down now sixteen to three, first and ten 397 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: at the Kansas City seventeen seventeen, and it's a field goal. Yeah, 398 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: so red zone problems up again. Yes, And then the 399 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: beginning of the fourth quarter, and you're still sitting there 400 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: going okay, if they just score a touchdown, right and 401 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: they just kept teasing you, right, So the end of 402 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: the third quarter, first possession or in it went into 403 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, and uh, they're down now nineteen to six, 404 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: and you're going, okay, you score a touchdown, it's nineteen thirteen. Okay, 405 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: we're back to the defense is playing well? Right, Yeah, 406 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: first and they moved to first and ten at the 407 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: Kansas City twenty one and this one, I'm gonna call 408 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 1: bs on first play, be honest with a false start. Now, 409 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: I didn't see him like act like he was gonna 410 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: snap it. I saw him pop his head up and 411 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: then they threw the flag. Can I say how ridiculous 412 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: the coverage was on these penalties. It seemed as if 413 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: the production booth, Troy and the guys, they were so 414 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 1: busy being distracted by these other things when you got 415 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 1: key things happening on the field and no one was 416 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: set up to review it. And they came back to 417 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: one play two plays later. So five yards Now you're 418 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: first in the last thing you want to be against 419 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: this team is first in fifteen, Right, they tried to 420 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: run the ball, get something. Zeke got four. And then 421 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: on second and eleven at the twenty two, they tried 422 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson on an end around in front of Dak 423 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 1: and he's gonna flip him the ball, and they fumbled it. 424 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: And afterwards Cedric said he thought it was supposed to 425 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 1: be a handoff, not like a flip. Yeah, maybe he 426 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: did so. Fortunately, yeah, oh no, that wasn't the play 427 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: because they ended up minus two on that. The other 428 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: one ended up being an incomplete pass. I just know that. 429 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: After the play, Cedric was like, hey, you know right, 430 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: yeah and here, Yeah, that wasn't this play. This one 431 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: was a short pastor Wilson. They tried to smoke screen 432 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: and remember whoever it was on the outside was a Schultz. 433 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: They missed the block that happened. That was when Gallup 434 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: got dumped. Correct, No, that was another one, you're right, 435 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: that was independent of this, But this one same thing. 436 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: They didn't get the block. One time Zeke was out there, 437 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: you could tell it was gonna be a bubble screen. 438 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: They drew attention to themselves because I don't think Zeke 439 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: or I don't think they knew which one is catching 440 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: and which one was blocking. If you would call right 441 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: and he and Dak, I don't think he did. He 442 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,479 Speaker 1: throw it out there. I don't think he threw it 443 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: out there. Both of them seemed to block. You didn't 444 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,880 Speaker 1: see that. I know I didn't see that wrong. So 445 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 1: Zeke is out there with I think he was with 446 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 1: Schultz and they both blocked. I don't even think he 447 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: threw the ball out. There was probably another sack or 448 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: another complete or some crap, but it just showed more 449 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: an aptitude. And then so that series first and ten 450 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: at the twenty one ends with a field goal. So 451 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: now it's nineteen to nine and you're sitting there going, okay, 452 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: if they just score a touchdown, you know you would 453 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: at least have an on side kick comes to tease 454 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: and then let's see and they go down to first 455 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: and ten at the Kansas City twenty. Now there was 456 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 1: only one oh seven left and Dak tries to hit 457 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: and the leak Turner I assumed it was Malik Turner 458 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: on that slant. Yeah it was, and the safety was 459 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: sitting right there. Well they got tipped, and did they 460 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: got tip? Yeah, they took all that was jobs, that's right, 461 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: they got they got tea. It wasn't like he just 462 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: threw it in there that got tipped. And u Legarius 463 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: need intercept. That guy had a really had a good kid. 464 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: He was a painting the Cowboys about Matthews and he 465 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: was the one that was the man. And so there 466 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: was another one. So all these opportunities they had they 467 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,239 Speaker 1: could not cash in, and that's why you end up 468 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: with three. There was a play they went back. I 469 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: just can't believe they did this. They missed a call 470 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 1: and they went back and and enforced it. It's not 471 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: even reviewable. Did you even get You didn't see that, 472 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: did you? It wasn't the There was a there was 473 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: a hands to the face that didn't get called, and 474 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: it ended up a holding penalty on the Cowboys on 475 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: the offensive line. They went back and called it. Yeah, 476 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: they went back and called it. They missed it, and 477 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: they went back. The play was over. They went to 478 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: the chord and the guys went to the guy. He said, 479 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: new York didn't call that. That doesn't come from New York. 480 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: That was the eye in the sky. You can't do that, 481 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: I know. And he said even the referee on site 482 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: said you if New York doesn't bring it in, then 483 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: it's not reviewable. And they went back and they paid 484 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: up for the call that they missed. Now come on, man, 485 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: what is this? I mean to be allowed to do that? 486 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: And McCarthy was of course going crazy over there. Oh 487 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: there was a couple that he was going crazy. Well, 488 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: the personal file, well, the guy was pushed while the 489 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: play was still going on, right, we pushed in the 490 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: fifty nine, pushed him, pushed the running back. Play was 491 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 1: still going on, and they called the personal file or 492 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: the face mask where they missed the first face. Both 493 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,479 Speaker 1: guys should have been penalized for face masking, but the 494 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys got the penalty on the face mask. Yeah, um yeah, 495 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: watch stuff man. And this is they are not extremely inconsistent, right, 496 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: I mean they don't have their eyes in the right spot. 497 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: And it keeps coming up, keeps coming up, keeps coming up. 498 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: Um and and and so when you're not playing well, 499 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: you know, usually you say, well, okay, that shouldn't decide. 500 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: When you're not playing, the well just piles on top that. 501 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: The pile just gets bigger and bigger. It's tough. You 502 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: can't overcome your mistakes and or the penalties or a 503 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: bad call. I'd like to put a third. You had 504 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: old line, you had wide receivers, and I gotta go 505 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: with the o C. Okay, I mean, I'm giving him 506 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,239 Speaker 1: credit whenever he shows out. As my kids say, he 507 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: comes out of his bad right, you know what I mean, 508 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: comes out of it as bad. You got so much 509 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: going on, and it's amazing how he distributes everybody and everything, no, 510 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: no matter how tough it is. From the beginning, my 511 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: concern with with Kellen Moore's play calling has always been this. 512 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: We rarely run the ball to consecutive place. There are times, 513 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: and this is we're getting into that time of year. 514 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: We need to show ourselves and even anyone else that 515 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 1: we can run this ball. Yes, you're gonna stop us once. 516 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: I remember Tom Land used to say, Yeah, they're gonna 517 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: stop you. They're gonna stop you, but you have to 518 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: be ready for the one that breaks. Okay, you know 519 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna stop you. And that's what I like about it. 520 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: I keep bringing up Pittsburgh, keeping bringing up the Ravens. 521 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: They're going to force their game plan on you. They're 522 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: going to force their physicality on you. They're not gonna 523 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: let up with certain cute plays and all that. Now, 524 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: those cute players, they work and I love them, and 525 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: that's they're so amazing when they work right, But when 526 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: you gotta smash mouth somebody, we have not shown that 527 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: we would like to consistently do that. I don't mean 528 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: that when we get on the goal line, Okay, we're 529 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: gonna okay, this time, we're gonna give give Zeke the ball. Yeah, 530 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: we's goal line. But when you're out in the field, 531 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: you're on the twenty yard line, we're on your own 532 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: ten yard line. You gotta show that you're willing to 533 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: put that ball in Zeke's hands or on Paulo's hands. 534 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: And we're gonna let Zach, We're gonna let Beard this, 535 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna let tyr and do what they do. We 536 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: have not shown that this year, not against teams, and 537 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: especially when we're down. And here's and here's another huge 538 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: difference in the game. And you're talking about staying with 539 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: the run. So they track at the end of the game. 540 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: You get a list of how many plays you had 541 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: for twenty yards or more or no, I take it back. 542 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: They track your longest ten longest plays. Cowboys had one 543 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: play more than twenty yards. It was the thirty one 544 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: yard run by Polo. Yeah, but that was it. Kansas City, 545 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: on the other hand, on their top ten plays longest play. 546 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: Six of them were twenty one yards or more. And 547 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: that was one of the things that Cowboy Defense struggled with, 548 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:44,719 Speaker 1: somewhat back to their problem and giving up those big plays. 549 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: And we'll talk about that Cowboy defense when we continue 550 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: here on mix Shots.

Sorry, William, and 598 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: let me read the rest of Andy Reid's quote that 599 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: I read off the top. It's what the league strive for, parody, 600 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,280 Speaker 1: and I think they've done a great job with that. 601 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: Every city has an opportunity to win football games, even 602 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: Detroit when they tied. Right, that's a great thing, and 603 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: we're no different. We've got to just keep our nose 604 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 1: to it and bear down as we go, take each 605 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: game as it comes. We haven't proven anything yet. You 606 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: can talk about it all after the season, go find 607 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 1: an island and go lay around and tell everyone about it. 608 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: But right now, not so much. Nope, And he's got 609 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: a lot to deal with in the in the AFC West, right, 610 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Dick Cowboys the least of his problems. Right now, 611 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: he's just glad to get that in the in the 612 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 1: review review mirror, and he's moving on. They got Chargers, 613 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: you know they have what Raiders still they have to 614 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: deal with Seahawks. I think so. Then acst is tell 615 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,879 Speaker 1: So the Chiefs have now won four straight, they've won 616 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: four of the last five and scoring no more no. 617 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 1: In four of the last five games, they've scored no 618 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: more than twenty points, and they're four and one four 619 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 1: and one. So that defense has stepped up. I believe 620 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 1: in that stretch. I think they're like the number four defense. 621 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 1: In the last six games they've given up in five 622 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: of them, they've given up no more than seventeen points. 623 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: So Tennessee is the outlier. I think they ended up 624 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: twenty seven. Another team that lost yesterday. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, 625 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: all right. So we were talking about next man up 626 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 1: on the offense, but here kind of might take on 627 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 1: the defense. You don't have DeMarcus Lawrence yet. Randy Gregory 628 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 1: has to miss at least another game. Although Lawrence. By 629 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:50,280 Speaker 1: the way, they brought Lawrence, Neville Gallimore and Brent Urban 630 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: to the game so they can do their rehab prior 631 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: to the warm ups. That close to close. When I 632 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: saw them, I said, oh, he must be getting close 633 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: because you would him, right, you wouldn't bring him. But 634 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 1: that last rehab was like, okay, let's get that rehab 635 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: in u since the other guys are there. But so 636 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: your top two pass rushers are out, okay, and you'll 637 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,760 Speaker 1: sit there and go okay. But that's fine. Because Michael 638 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 1: Parsons could play defensive end. They needed him at linebacker too. 639 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,840 Speaker 1: He can't bewhere. I know he can't bewhere. And I 640 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:34,919 Speaker 1: mentioned his line, you know. And it was another phenomenal 641 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 1: performance by a guy that's not ann So Parsons finishes 642 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:46,839 Speaker 1: with four tackles, two sacks, two tackles for losses. Three 643 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: quarterback hits and a force fumble. All right, but four tackles? 644 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: What does he normally get, seemingly of late, it's nine 645 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 1: to twelve tackles again, true, they needed him at linebacker 646 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 1: along with vander esh because of the speed that Kansas 647 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 1: City was playing with. They picked him underneath, picked him 648 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: apart underneath with all that crossing stuff, and I'm thinking 649 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: he could run some of that stuff down. And I'm 650 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,759 Speaker 1: thinking he has a better chance to run down Mahomes 651 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,240 Speaker 1: when he doesn't have a three hundred and twenty pound 652 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 1: defensive end in front of him. Two of them at 653 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,359 Speaker 1: one point seven times, you can see two guys block 654 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 1: and they ended up taking the rookie out and brought 655 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 1: in another guy and he blew past him too. And 656 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: that's great, right, but in the overall game, you get 657 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: limited when you're at defensive end. Now you probably think, Okay, 658 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: he's crazy. He got two sacks. He just tied to 659 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: Marcus Wears a rookie record for most sacks in a 660 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: single season since they started counting sacks after and during 661 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty two season. So I think Harvey Martin 662 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:05,440 Speaker 1: probably had nine his rookie year. Somebody else had nine also, 663 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 1: but that's when the sacks became an official NFL. So again, 664 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 1: the injuries impact you in some way or fashion. It 665 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 1: limits you because hey, if he got two sacks out there, 666 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,760 Speaker 1: if DeMarcus Lawrence is healthy, he can get two. Randy 667 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 1: Gregory could right now. Now you got him in the 668 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: middle doing all the other stuff. What it does is, obviously, 669 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: if you take away a resource, it's hard to replace 670 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: it without diminishing your backup, without diminishing your strength, without 671 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 1: diminishing your options, you know. Uh, And that's what they did. 672 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 1: We didn't have the variety. We needed more variety, We 673 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: needed more players that could do what we needed to 674 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: be done. I was kind of disappointed my boy, Kean O'Neil. 675 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 1: I think that was a game for him step up. 676 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: I don't think he played that well at all. I 677 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 1: didn't see him make an impact, whether it was on 678 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 1: the run or back at the past. And he had tackles, 679 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 1: he had seven, but again it wasn't anything you know 680 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 1: that lit up. It was a low tackles for losses 681 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 1: and things of that nature. That's kind of what you 682 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: were looking for consistently anyway. And and let me show 683 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 1: this also, other than Parsons. The top tacklers in the 684 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: game for the Cowboys Neil Hooker, Curse Parsons, Brown Digs, 685 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 1: Donovan Wilson, and Jordan Lewis. What is the common thing there, 686 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 1: all dbs. That's ten guys. The only guy up front 687 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:47,479 Speaker 1: that had tackles more than four or at least four 688 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:55,839 Speaker 1: tackles was Parsons. Oh, Carlos Watkins tied at ten with four. 689 00:42:56,200 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 1: Nice all right, But after that the other guy is 690 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: on the defensive front didn't do anything. So that means 691 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,640 Speaker 1: and they were given the ball to Hilaire by the way, 692 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 1: yeah right, and that was his first game, and you know, 693 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 1: and and while he didn't pile up big numbers, he 694 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: kept he kept the yardage moving the chains. Yeah, that's 695 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: what they were doing that he was getting And they 696 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,839 Speaker 1: were giving up big plays as much as they just 697 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: you don't want a team like Casey to control the 698 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 1: clock as much as they did, especially when defensively. Offensively 699 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: we're playing the way we were. But you know what 700 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 1: the weird thing was, it looked like they had the 701 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,720 Speaker 1: ball forever. They had it for thirty minutes and forty 702 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: seven seconds. The Cowboys had it for twenty nine minutes 703 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 1: in thirteen seconds, so they had it ninety four seconds more. 704 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: That's it. But it seemed like they possessed the ball forever. 705 00:43:54,640 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: And that's because Hilaire was averaging five five point three 706 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,800 Speaker 1: yards par for the course, right part for the course. 707 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 1: That's how that's the that's what we have never been 708 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 1: able to remedy on this defense yet. And I get 709 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: now here's the thing. They can do all of that 710 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: they want if you can let them have those numbers. 711 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: But as a defense, you create more turnofs, then of 712 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 1: course that's going to offset their their effectiveness. We didn't 713 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 1: play the past wells as well as we should have. 714 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: H I wish we were closer in some of those 715 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: key moments. Uh, they gain playing my board digs on 716 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 1: a couple of plays to where I get it. That's 717 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:38,799 Speaker 1: the same thing they tried to do with me. They 718 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: want you to jump up so they can catch you 719 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,399 Speaker 1: in the back, either it's by a double move by 720 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 1: the man that you're guarding, or they scheme it. They 721 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 1: know you in the zone, they make you bite on 722 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 1: the man in the flat. Then they send someone to 723 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 1: the to the flag or to the outside deep where 724 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,879 Speaker 1: you probably are supposed to be along with the safety. 725 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:02,760 Speaker 1: You see Diggs is up here. The safety is alway 726 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,919 Speaker 1: flanked by the guy in the third receiver inside. All 727 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,319 Speaker 1: he does is want to flag about. Diggs has a 728 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: choice to make you either stay back or you come up. 729 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 1: He chose to go up. Folks. Well, I'll tell you 730 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 1: what though. One of the things that they were doing 731 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 1: is they were playing their corners at most of the 732 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 1: time five to seven yards off the line of scrimmage. 733 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 1: You can't see that on TV, but when you're there, 734 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 1: they're leaving all this space. Right. We saw it, and 735 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: there was one they lined up and I just kind 736 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,839 Speaker 1: of said out loud to myself, I said, well, they're 737 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: gonna throw a slant to Hill. Well, sure enough, they 738 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: threw a slant because everybody was backed off. We could 739 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: see it. My son. My son fussed about it the 740 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: entire game. Why are they lined up so deep because 741 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: all they're gonna do is just give them space? And 742 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: what you don't want and I've always said this, Okay, 743 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 1: he might have gotten this for me. You don't want 744 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 1: a free release, right, you get these fast guys are 745 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 1: free release. Then the timing is there there for Mahomes. 746 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,280 Speaker 1: He has nothing. You're not inhibiting them from doing anything. 747 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 1: You're not stopping them from from running slants, you're not 748 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,359 Speaker 1: stopping their timing. You want to throw the timing off 749 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 1: every time we got up and jammed them. Anytime you 750 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: play two deep safeties and you jammed the wide receivers, 751 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 1: which is what most people have been doing and what 752 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 1: keeps them effective, it makes my homes hold on to 753 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 1: it a little bit long because the guy's gotta break over. 754 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: The guys gotta break open, and when you're jacking them 755 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: up at the line of scrimmage, then it's not really 756 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 1: clear which what the timing is. And that's what you 757 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 1: want to do. I mean, we did it with the 758 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: Giants all the time. We didn't play off. We played 759 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 1: on because the pressure you put on those wide receivers 760 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 1: that puts pressure on the quarterback. I don't know if 761 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 1: it was they were so worried they were going to 762 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 1: run past them if they didn't hold them up at 763 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 1: the line. The cover too, like everybody else, when you 764 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 1: give them that much space, I bet the yards after 765 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 1: catch were enormous. Play the cover too, man, like everybody else. 766 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:02,839 Speaker 1: That's what's been holding them down. That's why they don't 767 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,760 Speaker 1: score as much. Now you got two deep safes, nothing 768 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,440 Speaker 1: wrong with that. I would rather I'll do like like 769 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: Super Bowl twenty five. I'd rather you beat me with 770 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: the run than beat me with the pass. Well, I 771 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 1: just noticed. And and even sometimes on third down you 772 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 1: were thinking we'll get up on the line of scrimmage, 773 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 1: they only got to pick up six or seven. Right. Well, 774 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 1: when you're backed off that far um, passons ain't gonna 775 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: take long when you when you're jamming this guy, and 776 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 1: if he was in the middle at linebacker, some of 777 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:36,239 Speaker 1: that stuff they might have gotten just inside covered. Yeah, 778 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,799 Speaker 1: at least been deterred or at least somebody can run 779 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 1: them down. There you go. But they didn't run down 780 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:45,399 Speaker 1: much of anything. And we just ran down. We ran 781 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: down to time all the way to the end of 782 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 1: this thing. All right, We will be back tomorrow. Bill 783 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:58,400 Speaker 1: Jones should be back with us Foreverson Walls of Mickey Spagnola, Chris, 784 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,759 Speaker 1: thanks for getting us up and running, and we'll be 785 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 1: back with mick shots tomorrow.
