This is Mick Shot 0:00:16.520 --> 0:00:20.520 screening live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the official 0:00:20.680 --> 0:00:25.239 Dallas Cowboys have now Here are Bill Jones, Everson Walls, 0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:31.880 and Nicky Spagnola. Butter late than never. This is a 0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:38.200 non bb D edition of Mick Shots with the ever 0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:43.960 Charismatic Mickey Spagnola and Everson Walls. I am Bill Jones, 0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:47.680 bb D. Did you not listen to Mike McCarthy's press 0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:51.360 conference today? I did? What is BBD stand for? I 0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:54.720 didn't know if you You hadn't picked up on that? Uh? 0:00:55.960 --> 0:01:01.560 I forgot? Yeah, obviously it was not that impressive. It 0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:07.360 didn't land well with you, did it BBD? I think 0:01:07.400 --> 0:01:12.560 he said, is be boring daily or something like that. Okay, 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:15.520 that that has been. That was his Mike McCarthy's philosophy 0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:18.399 in Green Bay, and he said, basically, it didn't work there, 0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:22.720 and so now he's giving us his charismatic. The charisma 0:01:22.920 --> 0:01:25.480 is just flowing out of his ears, and that's the 0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:28.800 way it has been throughout this time here on mix Shots, 0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:34.160 the ever Charismatic Mickey Spagnola and Everson Walls right, there's 0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:39.560 no BBD be Boring Daily around here, right, And I 0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:41.560 think Mike said it took him a little while to 0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:46.760 learn that, as most coaches do, and then most quarterbacks 0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:51.000 also do, because they realize that if they have an 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:53.840 opinion one way or another, someone's going to challenge it 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:57.080 and they can disagree with them or challenge them and 0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:01.160 and and twist what they have to say. So now 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:03.480 you say, now they have that. I can't remember exactly 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:07.640 it was. It was bb D. I think it was daily, 0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:09.880 and I didn't hurt and I didn't hear to that 0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:14.520 effect anyway, tire any and Everson Walls never subscribed to 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.480 that when he played for the Cowboys or since he 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:22.519 has never been BBD. Right, Everson, we want to be 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:27.640 exciting daily. So that's a b e ED and that's 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.760 also the that should be the monica for this show. 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:33.880 I don't want to be boring daily, you know, and 0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:36.960 we're not that, especially when Mick takes mix shots. It's 0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:41.480 at people, depending on who it is, and then you've 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.480 got the Twitter going crazy on him and they're going 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.640 to criticize it's no matter what we say. So b 0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:51.160 ED that's what we're going to And that's why head 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:55.119 coaches typically are b B D because they don't want 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:58.200 the Twitter world to go crazy. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, all 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.640 they're gonna do it anyway, that gonna do it anyway, 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:04.239 right way that it's gonna Twitter is not made for 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:09.920 a smooth role. Twitter is made for bumpy and chaotic. 0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:14.239 And Mickey has been out on the practice field. The 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:18.240 players still out there as of ten minutes, fifteen minutes ago, 0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:21.520 and I walked by out on the practice field and 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:24.760 there was a new player out on the practice field today. 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:28.440 He's actually an old familiar phase, but he is back 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:32.080 cleared to at least do something now. Number ninety four 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:38.040 Randy Gregory is now eligible to practice with the team. 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:43.680 He's still conditionally reinstated. He's got two more games that 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:46.960 he has to miss, but part of his condition was 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.240 after four weeks he can start working with the team. 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:54.040 So he was in helmet and whatever pads they had shells, 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:57.960 and it really was the first time. So he got 0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:03.680 suspended February twenty six, twenty nineteen, indefinitely. So the last 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:05.600 time he would have had a helmet on whould have 0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:11.680 been the Cowboys playoff game in LA January twelve, twenty nineteen, 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:16.560 versus the Rams, and the last regular season game he 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:20.760 played was December thirtieth against the Giants. He had five tackles, 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:24.159 a tackle for a loss, and one quarterback hit. So 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:27.680 I think this will be a very good addition to 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:31.200 a team that lacks a pass rush. I'm not sure 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:33.480 how much he'll be able to do right off the start, 0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:35.640 but he and he can't do anything in four a 0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:37.920 couple of weeks. For another two weeks he can practice, 0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:40.719 but he can't play until after the sixth game. So 0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:45.360 maybe he should be after the bye. The bye. So 0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:47.840 you got the Giants and you got Arizona in the byeway. 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:52.279 Now I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Washington weeks down. Yeah, I'm sorry. 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:58.520 And so maybe he's a dp R designated pass rusher. 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:02.120 So where into acronyms here, that's right? And he has 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:06.279 never been BBD. What about a designated edge center? Well, 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:11.240 that that would help. Also, by the way, um and 0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:16.599 also back in practice, Anthony Brown, Um, he's eligible to 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:21.000 come off injured reserve. He served his three games, which 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:24.600 is one of the reasons. And good question by Everson 0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:29.520 Walls last night to me what what it was Brandon 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:33.880 Carr question mark and Mike answered it today said, we've 0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:37.640 got ab coming back. Uh so I guess they felt 0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:42.599 like to make room. Uh, they didn't need another corner. 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.280 And he wasn't really playing much, and I think the 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:48.520 experiment at safety really wasn't working. At least that may 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:54.560 have been his Bbdon didn't. Yeah, I think he had 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:57.880 one snap in in in the last game. Uh, so 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.600 we'll see where that one goes. Uh. He lives here, 0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:05.080 so he can always be an emergency replacement. But at 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:09.480 least Anthony Brown was back out there working. That was encouraging. 0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:16.640 Also encouraging Layton vandersh was ramping up his rehab. He 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:20.760 was actually doing some running. Uh they were also he 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.920 was doing those step drags. After these last couple of weeks, 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:27.280 I bet he is ramping up his You got a 0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:30.880 week going here, you gotta get going. He was doing 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:35.400 those side steps through the through the blocking bags on 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:38.920 the ground. Actually saw him catch the balls at one handed, 0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:41.120 And I don't know if it was the good collar 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:44.720 bone or the bad one, but uh, he was moving 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:49.080 more than his previous rehab had been taken place. So 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:53.160 he was rehabbing chitube Owoozier looked like he ramped up 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.679 his rehab and he would be eligibly come off ire 0:06:56.920 --> 0:07:02.880 next week, so that was encouraging. Uh. And after that, 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:06.240 I think that about Covers. The guys, they they're new 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:10.960 guys on the roster, were here and practicing. The offensive tackle. 0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:14.840 Greg senat Uh claimed off the or signed off the 0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:20.280 Cleveland's practice squad, and then Williams Sweet was added to 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:23.000 the Cowboys practice squad and I saw both of them 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:26.400 work out. So these two guys, you guys, they probably 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:28.600 have a pretty good head on their shoulders because they 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:31.760 were the second and third people out on the practice 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:34.960 field before everybody else started coming out, so they had 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:37.360 the sense to get out there early and start working. 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:41.520 And they were good size guys too. They were six 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:48.080 four six five and their tackles, yeah, and good size guys, 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.400 and they looked like they were in shape if you 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.160 can tell with a jersey. There's the scouting report on 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:57.360 the new Covers, right Mickey, and and all tackles are 0:07:57.400 --> 0:08:04.440 welcome on this team, by the way, because the reports 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:07.760 where Lale Collins should be going under surgery today, so 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.560 that that ship is sailed and they've got to make 0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:14.640 do and by and by the way, just second, Everson, 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:18.160 I just want to clarify on Randy Gregory. He would 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:22.320 be eligible to play in a game at Washington on 0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:25.800 October twenty fifth. Cowboys have the Giants this Sunday, then 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:28.760 a Monday night game against Kyler Murray and the Cardinals, 0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:32.040 and then at Washington at Philadelphia. The bye week isn't 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.960 until November fifteenth, and so his first chance to sack 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:40.200 a quarterback would be Washington's Kyle Allen as it stands 0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:44.560 right now, because Washington just made a change at quarterback today. 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:50.320 Dwayne Askins, Kyle Allen is and Alex Smith is a 0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:53.240 number two quarterback there at Washington. He's moving up the 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:55.320 depth chart. I would think if they if they are 0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:58.720 and we'll get back to the Cowboys here, but I 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:03.560 would think if they are going, if Alex Smith is 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.400 and come along far enough to where he can be 0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:08.920 the number two quarterback, then why you needed the number 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:11.439 one quarterback? Because I mean, what if Kyle Allen gets 0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:13.079 hurt the first play of the game. Man, if he's 0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:16.720 your number two guys are doing so what a remarkable 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:21.120 story him even getting back to this level. All Right, Everson, 0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:24.839 you wanted to say something. Oh, I was just gonna 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:29.240 mention how important it was that Randy Gregory and of 0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:33.040 course Vandersch kind of starts stepping up in regards to 0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:37.839 rehab and really getting ready for the game. What's just 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.920 as important is what you talked about Spags, the big 0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:44.240 guys that they brought in, Because we talked about it yesterday. 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:47.520 I know I did at length about, Yes, our linebackers 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:50.840 need to be better. Their recognition does need to be quicker. 0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:54.080 We talked about how Sean Lee, if he was out there, 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:57.400 his recognition would be quicker and he would be doing 0:09:57.440 --> 0:09:59.800 all he could to blow up the blocking scheme for 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.720 the opposing offense. But when it comes down to it, 0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:05.840 we need these D linemen, and we need these D 0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:10.400 linemen to be able to keep the offensive linemen off 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.480 of our linebackers. They have to be given room to 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:18.720 roam from sideline to sideline at least not to be 0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:23.280 cut off from shooting their gaps when they do recognize run. 0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:25.800 So Sean Lee could be out there as well, trying 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:28.480 to do all they can if we can't keep those 0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:31.720 big linemen off of him, If we can't keep those 0:10:31.760 --> 0:10:36.240 big offensive linemen from cutting off our linebackers. It's gonna 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:39.040 be just like it was last year towards the end 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:41.480 of the season. We were horrible against the run all 0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:45.600 last year, especially last eight games. We're continuing that this year. 0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:49.320 The big d lineman or extremely important, not just that 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.920 they need to be schemed properly to help the linebackers 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:56.840 as much as possible. Micky, when you look at the 0:10:56.920 --> 0:11:00.560 run defense, what struck you out side of the fact 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:03.479 there were some gaping holes, But there were some plays 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.800 In fact, one play in particular, the Kareem Hunt fourteen 0:11:06.920 --> 0:11:11.040 or thirteen yard touchdown right and Everson Griffin took himself 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:13.480 out of the play with a hard charge up field, 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:15.440 and there was just a huge hole there. There were 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:18.360 some other instances where whether it was stunts on the 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:21.839 defensive line or whatever, where they there were just some 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:25.520 gaping holes there too. Yeah, and there there was a 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.600 couple of miss tackles. Um I can't remember which, if 0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:31.360 it was that touchdown or another one going the other way. 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.880 Xavier Wood stepped into the hole and he whiffed. He 0:11:35.880 --> 0:11:38.840 didn't he didn't make the tackle. Uh and and me 0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:41.720 made the tackle. He they would have stopped him about 0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:43.719 at the line of scrimmage, or that might have been 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:46.240 where went to the goal line. He went to the 0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:48.520 goal line and they ruled him down at the yard 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:52.160 line that one, and so uh yeah, there were some mistackles, 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:54.760 but they were just getting pushed out of position. They 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:59.280 weren't holding their gaps very well. And you know, and 0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:03.640 Everson knows this as well as anything. You know, they 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:07.199 teach the offensive lineman, you know, if the defensive lineman 0:12:07.240 --> 0:12:09.560 wants to go that way, just ghost push them that 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:12.080 way and when you know, the running back will find 0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:14.439 the hole. And they seem to be going and they 0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:16.880 were going, okay, well I'll just push you to the left, 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:19.160 get you out of the way. And there was the 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:23.280 cutback lanes and guys weren't maintaining their gaps and they 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.880 got to do a better job of that. So I 0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:28.600 don't know if that was scheme. I don't know if 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:32.280 they weren't using the right technique. I do know that's 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:35.840 typically called zone blocking. Spags. That's all that is called. 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:39.160 It's called zone blocking. It's the same thing that was 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:44.000 the death of the flex defense in trying to give 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:48.160 the linebacker's room to roam. We can't our defensive lineman. 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:52.400 They would lay on the offensive lineman as opposed to 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:56.560 keeping them at arm's length so that they can control them. 0:12:57.200 --> 0:13:00.360 Once that lineman gets up into that chest, they have 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:04.160 no records unless you're an exceptionally good defensive lineman like 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:08.120 an Aaron Donald or someone like that. But otherwise you're 0:13:08.160 --> 0:13:11.040 at their mercy, and like you said, just pushing them 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:15.400 on by. They cannot react to go back inside because 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:18.120 the offensive lineman has control of them. It happened with 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:21.280 the flex and that's why you get these big offensive linemen. Now, 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.800 remember the Cowboys had the small guys, the Raffertees, you know, 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:29.000 the Fitzgerald great players. Alata did well for Tony Darsett. 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:31.800 At one point he was had more yards than anyone 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:35.000 else in NFL history, so they were doing well for him. 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.760 But as things went on, the red Skins, the Hogs, 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.400 those guys came in with Riggins, and they had the 0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:46.640 big offensive lineman that would just shield the d lineman 0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:50.880 Randy White, John Duddon Harvey two tall, shield them from 0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:53.840 able to get him back inside into the gap. Next 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:56.120 thing you know, Riggins has gone right by you, and 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:58.040 now we have to deal with him in the secondary. 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:03.400 So that that boats the same to this day. And 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:06.520 so your defensive lineman the best ones, you see it, 0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:09.280 The best ones are the ones that take control of 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:12.120 the offensive lineman, not the ones that let the offensive 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:15.360 lineman take control of them. Yeah, Tom didn't want anybody 0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:17.800 more than two hundred and sixty pounds. And then Nate 0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:24.120 Newton showed up, messed up everything, just messed up everything. 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:26.920 See the look on top space, like, are you kidding me? 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:30.480 This guy's like three hundred and thirty pounds. But it 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:34.800 changed and it ended up being a great cobo and 0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:37.040 one of the right And Danyell tell you this. One 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:40.240 of the reasons why it changed is the NFL finally 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:44.160 cracked down on steroids. So you had to have naturally 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:48.160 big guys like Nate because they ate a lot, not 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:52.920 because they were taking artificials stimulants, you know. And basically 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:55.720 up until nineteen eighty nine, which Landry was out of 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:58.680 the league. In nineteen eighty nine. I remember Jerry Jones 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.720 and he still tells of stories how many three hundred 0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.480 pounders there were in the league when he came into 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:07.320 the league, and it was like in the single digits 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:11.680 in the entire league. Yeah, and you can't find. As 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:16.160 far as offensive linemen are concerned you, there aren't exist. 0:15:16.280 --> 0:15:19.320 There aren't a I bet you there is less. There 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:23.560 are less than five offensive linemen that are under three 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:26.000 hundred pounds, and that would be maybe you'd find a center. 0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:28.400 I don't even know if they exist there. There have 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:30.480 been some that have come out of the draft that 0:15:30.520 --> 0:15:32.680 are have been two hundred and ninety five pounds, and 0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:37.920 I immediately checked them. I don't even don't even write 0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:40.480 them my big green notebook if they're less than three 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:43.280 hundred pounds anymore.

Yes, Wow, that means they've got a lot 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:44.879 of stuff for us to read. That's exactly right. All right, Mickey, 0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:47.520 you do have a big time mix shot, don't you do? 0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:50.680 You do? Real? Absolutely? Wow, I just made that up. Well, 0:18:50.720 --> 0:18:52.840 there's one one thing I should point out before I 0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:55.399 give you my mix shot is the Dalton Schultz was 0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:57.880 probably going to be limited. I think we saw him 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:00.400 speaking of big shots. Yeah, he got his own mix 0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:02.320 shot at the end of the day, sure did. And 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:05.320 I don't know. I guess that was a legal hit too, right, 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:09.880 unlike the one Joe Thomas hit on their guy. But anyway, 0:19:09.920 --> 0:19:12.480 he was going to be limited, so he was out there. 0:19:12.600 --> 0:19:16.639 I don't know how much he was actually gonna do. Uh, 0:19:16.880 --> 0:19:21.040 same thing I think with uh Tyrone Crawford too. So 0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:23.960 we'll see what the injury port has to say on 0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:28.560 those guys. So my mix shot is all right. So 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:34.359 they they got through the game at right tackle. Now, 0:19:34.640 --> 0:19:36.920 is that the way they're gonna go in this game? 0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:42.000 Is it? Is it Brandon Knight out there just that simple? Uh? 0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:46.679 With Tyler Biadash at center, I'm pretty sure about that 0:19:46.720 --> 0:19:49.280 at center. But I think it's going to be interesting 0:19:49.320 --> 0:19:53.400 to see what they do out there at the at 0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:58.600 that tackle position because again, if Brandon Knight's starting, then 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:03.760 you know who's the backup. And I think in their minds, 0:20:03.800 --> 0:20:05.960 I don't know that they can go back to Terrence Steele. 0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:08.560 So this is going to be an interesting one to 0:20:08.640 --> 0:20:10.760 keep an eye on, I think for the rest of 0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:14.240 the week. I wonder how they feel about Greg Sinnett. Yeah, 0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:17.439 but the new guy a lot of experience, right he 0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:20.240 was he was on I think I R with Kansas City, 0:20:20.400 --> 0:20:22.960 got himself a Super Bowl ring, but I think he 0:20:23.040 --> 0:20:25.520 spent most of the season on I R. And then 0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:28.400 he had been on the practice squad for Cleveland so 0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:32.200 far this year. So yeah, that'll be an interesting see 0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:36.160 how quickly they think he could help out. And I thought, 0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:38.919 there's little If you're on IR and you get a 0:20:38.960 --> 0:20:44.879 Super Bowl ring, is it like a discounted version? How 0:20:46.000 --> 0:20:48.119 does that work? I mean you don't even play, you know, 0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:52.480 in practice you're on IR, you get all the diamonds? 0:20:52.520 --> 0:20:54.560 Did you get all the diamond you get? You get 0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:59.240 the what do they call him? The Zirkconium ones? Yes, yes, 0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:06.480 quis I remember what the first is? Yeah, got the czs. 0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:08.760 So we'll we'll keep an eye on that one this 0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:12.000 week too, see how how that one goes. H. I'm 0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:14.600 going to assume since Tyrn Smith finished the game and 0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:18.640 played so well, he's ready to go. Uh, and then 0:21:18.680 --> 0:21:21.440 we'll see what happens at right tackle. And it was 0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:25.680 nice having number seventy seven out there at left tackle. Yeah, 0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:29.840 from Dak it probably felt like a supreme luxury. That's right, 0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:33.840 by the way. Greg Sennett from Wagner College. He was 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:39.280 a sixth round draft pick of the Ravens in twenty eighteen, 0:21:39.400 --> 0:21:44.359 two years ago. Okay, so where is Wagner College. Well, 0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:46.399 that's easy for me to tell you. They are the 0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:54.360 Wagner Seahawks and they are located in what Staten Island, Oh, 0:21:54.600 --> 0:22:00.480 Staten Island, Wagner College. Division two three inn AIA. Let's 0:22:00.480 --> 0:22:05.760 see Northeast Northeast Conference. That's a Division one FCS, is 0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:12.280 what it says on Wikipedia. Division D one f FCS. 0:22:12.359 --> 0:22:18.240 Let's see, well that's football f CS. That would be yeah, yeah, yes, 0:22:18.640 --> 0:22:21.720 I didn't realize they were that big. So that's old 0:22:21.760 --> 0:22:25.040 school one double A, old school one double A. That 0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:28.720 was your division, right, That was my guys. Baby, that's 0:22:28.760 --> 0:22:30.760 where the heart comes by the heart lives in one 0:22:30.840 --> 0:22:34.320 double A. Baby, there you go. All right, hey, I 0:22:34.359 --> 0:22:36.639 have to tell you guys before we go on. I 0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:39.919 read an article. Uh. I did an interview with Goose 0:22:40.160 --> 0:22:43.920 this morning, Goose and Charlene, the two Hall of Fame voters, 0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:47.600 and I was taught we were talking about the lack 0:22:47.600 --> 0:22:50.800 of defense and that the Cowboys have right now. And 0:22:51.200 --> 0:22:53.600 his article maybe you read it already his spags, but 0:22:53.760 --> 0:22:58.720 his article talked about the lack of defensive structure for 0:22:58.760 --> 0:23:02.920 the Cowboys, just as a culture came from Jimmy Johnson 0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:07.840 and has continued ever since. Of course, we realized how 0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:11.360 many defensive players that were up for contracts after they 0:23:11.400 --> 0:23:14.600 did well, had their Super Bowl wins with Jimmy and Jerry, 0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:18.719 and how they never tried to hold on to a 0:23:18.760 --> 0:23:21.399 good defensive player because as long as they had the 0:23:21.440 --> 0:23:25.840 triplets and the offensive scheme working with North Turner so well, 0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:29.440 they figured they didn't have to invest much into defense. 0:23:30.119 --> 0:23:34.800 And so it seems like, according to this article that 0:23:34.400 --> 0:23:41.000 that thought process has continued to this day. Now that 0:23:41.000 --> 0:23:43.359 that was twenty years ago, I was almost twenty years ago, 0:23:44.000 --> 0:23:46.080 and I kind of disagree with the article in that 0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:51.119 regard because since Jimmy left, I mean, we had Bill parstsells. 0:23:51.720 --> 0:23:54.800 You know, Bill Parcells is all about defense, and he 0:23:54.840 --> 0:24:00.000 did well defensively with a team that was extremely undermanned, 0:24:00.640 --> 0:24:03.399 and he did that because of a sound structure offensively 0:24:03.640 --> 0:24:08.160 and a strong defense that wasn't very talented, but they 0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:11.040 had a lot of heart, and they had a great scheme. 0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:13.080 They had a great game plan from week to week. 0:24:13.560 --> 0:24:16.119 So I kind of disagree with it to put that 0:24:16.240 --> 0:24:20.000 on Jimmy going way back to nineteen ninety. I just 0:24:20.040 --> 0:24:22.480 don't think that that kind of culture lasts that long, 0:24:23.000 --> 0:24:26.359 especially when you've been through the ups and downs since 0:24:26.480 --> 0:24:30.040 Jimmy left. So we're talking about we're talking about signing 0:24:30.080 --> 0:24:35.360 defensive players to second contracts. Is that what we're talking about, Well, 0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:39.359 we're talking about compared to offensive players that have stuck 0:24:39.359 --> 0:24:45.080 around for more than one contract. That the defensive players, 0:24:45.119 --> 0:24:47.639 even though they may be prominent in our scheme, in 0:24:47.680 --> 0:24:51.640
