Jerry Jones was 13 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: just on the flagship station one oh five three the 14 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: fan in Dallas Fort Worth talking about his head coach 15 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: as well. Ask what happened in uh Sunday's game against 16 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: the Jets, the twenty four twenty two loss. I guess 17 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: we can probably start with that, but her first hello 18 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: to everybody? Are you today? Good mon? Bill? Good morning, 19 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: very good, very good. I also got the XFL Draft 20 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: going on right now Brian brought us this is what 21 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: a nerd I am. I'm actually tracking that draft. How 22 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: does how do you like to pick? So far Landry 23 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: Jones being your quarterback? You okay with that? That brings 24 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: it back to the Cowboys right off the bab because 25 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: Landry Jones was named after Tom Landry. There you go 26 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: up where Lance Dunbar was drafted? Was he really? He 27 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: wasn't seen that? Yeah? He was drafted? Yeah, all right, 28 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: there are some interesting names. Did the locals get anybody 29 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: worth note? Well? Landry Jones was the court got him? Yeah, 30 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: and he was the Desert their first round draft pick, 31 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: with the fourth pick of the twenty and twenty I 32 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: guess XFL draft. This is the skills portion of the draft. 33 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: The Dallas Renegades select wide receiver Jeff Badet from Oklahoma, 34 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 1: the University of Oklahoma. Oh, there's a common theme play there. 35 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: He did. He was actually transfer from someplace I can't 36 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: remember where he played one year there. Fast guy can 37 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: really run. Yeah, that's exactly right. And so anyway, Christian Michael, 38 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: we've had a cup of coffee here. Trey Williams, they 39 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: were first round draft picks as well. So anyway, there's 40 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: your XFL draft update. We'll keep you posted as the 41 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: day goes along, or maybe not all right, Jerry on 42 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: the radio, he was quizzed quite a bit about his 43 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: head coach, and it sounds to me like there will 44 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: not be a decision made on this head coach until 45 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: after the season is over, as he said last week, 46 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: and as he said, I mean really after the game too. 47 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: He said, I'm not even glancing into the long term future. 48 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: The future is this Sunday against the Eagles. That's all 49 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: they're focused on right now. I don't know how many 50 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: times he has to say it, but I guess you know, 51 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: people feel the need. They got to ask. They got 52 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: to ask when you've lost three games in a row 53 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: and the expectations of the team has right, Mick, Oh, absolutely, 54 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: And you know he also went on to say that 55 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: you know they I don't know if they thought they 56 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: were trying to trip them up or nothing with that 57 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: philosophy question that right, And Eddy said if I disagreed 58 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: with Garrett's philosophy, he wouldn't be the coach. Yeah, that's 59 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: for the ten years out. I'm glad Mickey pointed at 60 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: out that was the one thing you know if you 61 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: kind of take put it into a bow that I 62 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: think that's the veteran reporter right there telling you that 63 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: that that's that's the thing. Hey, if I didn't agree 64 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: with his philosophy, if I didn't agree with how he 65 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: managed the games. You know, I'm sure that Jerry is 66 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: like a fan and know every fan's like, oh, go 67 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: for it, No, don't go and then you know you 68 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: had that buyer's remorse when it doesn't work. But you know, yeah, 69 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: I feel like though that the question, one of the 70 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: better ones they asked, was that, hey, do you agree 71 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: with his philosophy? Do you agree with him and how 72 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: he manages the games? And he says if I didn't 73 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: agree with him, he wouldn't be the head coach, and 74 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: so this is all up for evaluation at the end 75 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: of the years. That's the way teams handle things. That's 76 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: the way that Jones has handled things. Yeah, it was 77 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: the one time they clearly saw and Mickey and Rob 78 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: will tell you that when Wade Phillips lost his team, 79 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: the Joneses had had enough at that point they needed 80 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: to try and do something differently. I don't feel like 81 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: that Jason Garrett has lost his team, even though we've 82 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: seen videos of guys walking by him supposedly not shaking 83 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: his hand or you know whatever, I don't think that. 84 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: Sometimes as a player, you walk off the field and 85 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: you're just you just want to get to the bench 86 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: and get a cup of gatorade and you don't notice 87 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: anything going on around you. And it was two guys. Yeah, 88 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: and we're making a big deal about that. Yeah, But 89 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: to me, at the end of the year, you sit 90 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: down and you evaluate where you're at with your coaching staff. 91 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: You're either gonna win enough or you're not gonna win enough, 92 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: and that's where the evaluation needs to be. He is 93 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: without a contract. No one's ever asked Jason garrettman if 94 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: he really wants to be here. Either he might and 95 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: he might like be tired of this place too. You know, 96 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 1: everybody's like, well, we're all tired of you. Well maybe 97 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: he's like, well, maybe I can go out and do 98 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 1: something else. You know, he's contracted us up at the 99 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: end of the year, so keep that in mind as well. 100 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 1: You know, we were talking about this yesterday off air. 101 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: When's the last time in the National Football League you've 102 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: seen a team make a coaching change with a franchise. 103 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, the first place in their division. Okay, 104 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: we I mean, you've seen hockey or Sailors Blues. They'll 105 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: shuffle coaches and managers in and out, but the NFL 106 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: that just doesn't happen. As as bad as this stretches, 107 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: they still control what they want to do. What Doug 108 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: Peterson said yesterday about his team is the same thing 109 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: that Jason Garrett could say about his team. Now, Jason's 110 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: not gonna say those type. He's not gonna come out 111 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: and say that. I know Doug walked it back. That's 112 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: not Jason's style, But the same thing holds true. They 113 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: can still do what they want to do. People might 114 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: say the Cleveland Browns last year when they made the switch, 115 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: when they got rid of Hugh and then went and 116 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: Greg Williams took over, and things kind of shifted a 117 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: little bit for them that way, but they say played 118 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: better the last time. A first place team, a team 119 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: that still is in control, and you did qualify into 120 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: what Brian said forty five seven, you lose. The Packers 121 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: get blown out by the Jaguars the week before. Wait 122 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: Phillips and we love him. He'd lost the team, the 123 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,239 Speaker 1: team had lost direction and that's why they made the change. 124 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: They're not going to do that here. It's a good 125 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: thing this is a football town and not a hockey town, 126 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: because that guy would be fired already. Right if you're 127 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: not aware, most of you probably aren't aware that Dallas 128 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 1: Stars are one five and one to start the start, Yeah, 129 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: out of here, let's go doing. But you know, the 130 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: other thing they asked him if and they were trying 131 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: to hint on the perception out there that the Cowboys 132 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: aren't prepared to start a game, they're not motivated. And 133 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: Jerry's answer to that they wanted to know what he'd 134 00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: does on game day. He said, I think he's tremendously 135 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: organized on game day, So that shot down that line 136 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: of questioning. Also, uh so yeah, and you know, and 137 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: the weird thing is, Okay, you don't have your team 138 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: prepared to start the game, right, but in ten minutes 139 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: at halftime they come out playing like their hair is 140 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: on fire. So what what what? What all of a 141 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: sudden you got organized And last year they couldn't make 142 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: half time adjustments. Now I can. Yeah, And so by 143 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: the way, I just saw this and this is gonna 144 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: be interesting. I'm trying to see where I wrote it down. Um, 145 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: the Eagles, their defense has been scored on on the 146 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: first possession five of the last six games. Yeah, and 147 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys don't score on those first possessions. So now 148 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: something's gonna give, right, Yeah, something's gonna happen, either one's 149 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: not gonna score, or one's gonna score, or when you 150 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: when you're I'd be interested. Just a thought from everybody 151 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: if I could. I kind of on Twitter this morning, 152 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: I kind of went the thought of a lack of 153 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: offensive rhythm? Is that? Is that being too simplistic? Is 154 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: that being with you? I was saying last night. Is 155 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: there is their ability Mickey to move the ball just 156 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: so fine? When you don't have I mean, I'm not 157 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying about the players on the field, But 158 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: even when they have the players on the field, even 159 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: when they have their full compliment or roster, is there 160 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: is their margin of error so small that it hurts 161 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: them to have any kind of rhythm? Am I am? 162 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,199 Speaker 1: I just making too much of something that probably isn't 163 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: what it is. Well, if you look at the start 164 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: of this pass game, all right, the h the Jets 165 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: came out and they were four and out. They got 166 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: one first down on the on the first play, and 167 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: then they went three and out. Right, the Cowboys went 168 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: three and out. Then the Jets had a fourteen play 169 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: scoring drive, right, and then the Cowboys end up going 170 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 1: eight plays and kick a field goal right, So, and 171 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: then the Jets went no score. The Cowboys went no 172 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: score thanks to well, there was a holding penalty. Anyway, 173 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: the Jets didn't score, and then the Cowboys are they 174 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: should have scored right, fourth and two, right, and then 175 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: they score on one play. So it was very even 176 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: to start the whole game saying, Okay, they didn't swell. 177 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: The Jets didn't start real well either. Hey, but I 178 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: mean you can look at all of that, but look 179 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: at the Dallas drives. Okay, look the week before against 180 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 1: Green Bay, there were a couple of picks, right that 181 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: derailed possessions in the first half. Yeah, this time they 182 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: weren't picks, but they were drops. I mean, when you're 183 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: sitting there at the thirty two yard line with a 184 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: third and four and there's a ball that clinks off 185 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup's hands, you're not moving the chains and you're 186 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: kicking the feet in the fifty yard field go next possession, 187 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: which was early second quarter. They're sitting there second and 188 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: eleven and complete off gallops hands and when I write 189 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 1: drop with an exclamation point, that's a drop. Yeah, I 190 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: give them the benefit of the doubt. You have to 191 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: go to a football focus, so you wind up so 192 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: you wind up punting there. And people don't want to 193 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: hear about this, but the coach says, we got to execute, 194 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, and that's execution there. You got to execute 195 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: ball plays. To your point, I was thinking this, I 196 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 1: think along the same lines as you. There's something about 197 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: this offense that doesn't feel right, even when they're being productive. Okay, 198 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: there came into this game with total offense leading the 199 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: whole league yards. Yeah, okay, but just something about it 200 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: that doesn't seem to be. Yeah, they hit on these plays, 201 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: but what are the odds seven times out of ten 202 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: that you're going to hit on those plays? You know? 203 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: It just seems like there's there's a frantic there's something 204 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: about it that's not right to me. I don't know 205 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: what it is. I think you're right right that three 206 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: and oh start, there was a there's a rhythm and 207 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: there was a pace to their offense where they were 208 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: kind of dictating things. Sure, and we're not the first half, 209 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: we're not seeing it. But I think everybody's right because 210 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: what I wrote in the mail bag because we had 211 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: that question was asked to us on the website. It's 212 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 1: it's a play here or there that's making the difference. 213 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: Like Bill mentioned the drops, there was a penalty by 214 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: Tavon Austin in the first fourteen yard play right there, 215 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: taken out of the book where they would have been 216 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: in the red zone. We've seen Dak take a sack 217 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: that knocks him out of field goal range. Like there's 218 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: just been different things that have happened that have that 219 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: have stopped drives and and so I think you have 220 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 1: to you really just have to look at each individual situation. 221 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: And it's hard to say, oh it's one overarching thing. 222 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: Oh they're they're flat or this or that. It is 223 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: about execution to some degree, I mean, and they just 224 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: haven't done it for whatever reason, consistent the possession before 225 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: the Jets drove down and made it twenty one to three. 226 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: Third and two, Jarwin has a drop that was a 227 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: first down. Yeah, and you know it gets knocked out. 228 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was a drop the guy did, Joe, 229 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: that was close. It was a test of bore there 230 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: right right. And and so then the next possession they 231 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: drive you know, in what twenty seconds? What was it 232 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: twenty yeah, twenty seven seconds and they kick a field. Yeah, 233 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: so yeah, I mean I was just trying to find out, 234 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: you know, because people don't want to hear the execution part. 235 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: But and they blame it on the coach. And you know, 236 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: the coach actually said that, you know, some of the 237 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: things execution, he said it yesterday. You know, you can't 238 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: put on the coaching staff. But I could say I 239 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: kind of answered the question in a way of is 240 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: Tavon Austin lining up a coaching problem? Is the drops 241 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: a coaching problem? You know? And I just you know, 242 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to defend the coaches. I'm just saying 243 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: they all have a hand at the at what the 244 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: problems are. But when you look for reasons and when 245 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,599 Speaker 1: they use the word execution or lack of it, it 246 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: does it applies to what they're trying to do here. 247 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: You know, if if they if they're able to if 248 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: they're able to catch these balls and make these throws 249 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: and not mess up bail coverage, you know, and uncover three. 250 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: If they do those things, then they then they get 251 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: the rhythm. Then they don't. Then they're not so inconsistent 252 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: down down at each I'm trying to say down after 253 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 1: down on defense, sometimes we see something really good on 254 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: defense and then the next place is something really bad 255 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: and they have no consisting, no rhythm on offense, and 256 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,839 Speaker 1: then on defense they struggle from down to down sometimes 257 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: and so you're trying to kind of figure out what's wrong. 258 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: And then now throwing special teams, you have a field 259 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 1: goal kicker that you know, he lines up on the 260 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: forty yard line to kick and all of a sudden 261 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: he doesn't make it, and now you have that problem. 262 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: Then he lines up at the other teams makes and 263 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: he makes it. Yeah, it's so now you're struggling with that, 264 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: and so to me, it's execution is and it's just 265 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: the inconsistency that they have on defense from down to 266 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: down is a real issue here. You can't get back 267 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: to back place from this defense. You know, when you 268 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 1: need to get off the field, you you just you're 269 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: you're holding your breath, like okay, come on, come on, Quinn, 270 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: come on Laurence. Somebody get a sack here, somebody gets 271 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: some pressure somebody, you know, And what you're having to 272 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: rely on is maybe you're getting a good enough rush 273 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: where they get a holding and it takes them back. 274 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: That seems to be the one thing that's stopping teams 275 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: from having any success against you. So and here's the 276 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: other thing that gets clouded when your defense is not 277 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: playing well. Yeah, their last seven possessions in the game, 278 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: last seven possessions, they go down to the seven yard line, right, 279 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: gamble and lose, right, okay, and then it's punt field goal, 280 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: field goal, missfield goal from forty which you should make, touchdown, touchdown. Yeah, 281 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: So the off offense moving the ball, but they get 282 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: one play or one miss field goal and it costs 283 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: you ten points that and you lose by two. It's 284 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: a good point by Mickey to me. Seven possessions and 285 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: they punted once. Yeah, this is this is the situation 286 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: you run into, is when you miss a field goal. 287 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: To me, that's like a turnover. Yeah, I mean that's 288 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: a turnover, you know, I mean, that's you know, and 289 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: then so actually just turnovers. If you count the fourth 290 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: and two, the ball you're absolutely right about that. So 291 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: I'm just you know, I'm trying to. I think we're 292 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: all trying to help Joe and Flower Mound out there 293 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: understand what the problem is. You know, we're trying to. 294 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: We're trying to. But then when you know, nobody wants 295 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: to hear its execution, you know, yeah, coaching sure, players sure, 296 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: front office sure, you know, broadcaster Brian broad Us sure. 297 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: You know. I think we all kind of have a 298 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: little bit of a of a thought or why or 299 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: trying to trying to pin trying to pin it down. 300 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: And when you say something that's simplistic, people don't want 301 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: to buy that. They just im mediately want to say, nah, Na, 302 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: what is the answer? Yeah, what is the answer? What 303 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: is the end? And I think we're all trying to 304 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, you're talking to football people here, and you know, 305 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: Mickey and everybody. We all talk to guys in this 306 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: hallway and you know, and we say, hey, what is 307 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: and guys will tell you, Hey, what I know. What 308 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: I see is the things we're talking about here. But 309 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: people don't want to buy that. They just don't. They 310 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: just be like, oh well, just na, get rid of 311 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: the coach. Yeah, okay, get rid of the coach. Sure, 312 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: but how about the receiver that lined up wrong? How 313 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: about the guy that Brian Braus talked about, is one 314 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: a at wide receiver not stepping up and having a 315 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: great game and helping you when you're one receiver is down. 316 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: As you said, I had three balls slip right through 317 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: my fingers. Yeah, you know. I mean that's that you 318 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: wonder why, you wonder why you lose games, and then 319 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: it's right there for you. It's right there for you 320 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: to see. But we don't want to accept that. We 321 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: want to look at something else and say, no, it's 322 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: not that. It's not that Brian, you're dumbass. It's not 323 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: that you know. Yeah, well, yeah, there are plays to 324 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: be made. And Jason Garrett, to your point, did say 325 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 1: yesterday anything that a player does or doesn't do, they 326 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: were put in a situation by the coaching staff, right, 327 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: so that it starts there. But at the same time, 328 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: there have been plays to be made in all of 329 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: these three losses. I know, they didn't put up any 330 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 1: touchdowns against the Saints. They had an opportunity in the 331 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: end zone early in the game. They're like, they're Witten 332 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: has a catching run where they're in position maybe to 333 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 1: get into a field goal at the very least. Like 334 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: the there are opportunities for this offense. And it's fun. 335 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: I mean, this game Sunday could be decided in the 336 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: first quarter, first half because the Eagles are in the 337 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 1: same boat. Yeah, they've gotten They've gotten shut out in 338 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: the first quarter I think four times this year. So 339 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: who you know their quarterback will he'll throw it wide. 340 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: I mean, he'll throw it over their heads. I mean, 341 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: who doesn't in the third quarter? Maybe see in that 342 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: And that's why Peterson said what he said, and and 343 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: and I saw column and the Philadelphia in choir is 344 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: basically what he's saying is, I still think we have 345 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: a good team, right, I still have confidence in my team. Right. 346 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: It's not like I'm trying to brag that we're so 347 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: much better than the Cowboys or anything. He's just trying 348 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: to instill confidence in a team that, by the way, 349 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: is three and three back and got run out of Minneapolis. 350 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: They look bad, they look bad playing. I mean, if 351 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: you watch that first quarter, first quarter and a half, 352 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: the three big touchdown passes they had, are you kidding me? 353 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: A team that was struggling with Kirk Cousins at quarterback, 354 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: and they ran the ball too much, by the way, 355 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, Rossul Douglas looks like me 356 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 1: out there playing corner. I'll tell you what, now, you 357 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: know what making you probably backpedal better than him right now. 358 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: Minnesota average six point one seven to play in that game, 359 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,959 Speaker 1: and they were perfectly balanced. And I know that drives 360 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: people nuts, but they've fifty two percent run, forty seven 361 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: percent pass. I know I didn't add the points whatever 362 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 1: to it, but that's that's where they were at. They 363 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: played a perfect game when you start talking, and they pressured, 364 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,239 Speaker 1: they got after, they got after the quarterback. You can 365 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: make that you could rattle this guy. If you can 366 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: get guys around him. He will kind of throw balls 367 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: just like just to throw them. I mean he's the 368 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: ball to the outside, could be wide. You know he can't. 369 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: Sometimes he won't be accurate throwing the ball, or throw 370 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: the ball high in the middle of the field. You 371 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 1: know that. I had some drops too that yeah, that 372 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: can sometimes do that too. But they had some drops 373 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: all Sean Jeffrey, I mean they'd some that. You go 374 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 1: back and watch him the Green Bay game they had 375 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: They've had some drops, and they've had some problems on 376 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: the offensive line too with protection. It's just the Cowboys 377 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: have got to find a way to just put if 378 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: you just could put one game together, you know, if 379 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: you just don't have things that's you know that the 380 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: stupid mistakes, you know, the turnovers, you know, conversions on 381 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: third down, you know that that seemed to be right 382 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: against the Jets. But you're gonna have to You're gonna 383 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: have to find a way to get after the Eagles 384 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 1: ass in this game.

The most amazing 440 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: stat that I've seen, and give proper credit if I 441 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 1: can find it Adam JT thirteen. Okay, we figured it 442 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: out of Bob Sturm retweeted it and said, this is 443 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: an amazing stat and I will agree. Through six games, 444 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: the Cowboys remain the only team that has not started 445 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: a single drive in the opponent's territory. The other thirty 446 00:23:54,840 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: one teams have started an average of five point nine 447 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: drives inside the opponent's territory, and four teams have started 448 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: at least ten drives through six games inside the opponent's territory, 449 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys have none. I would say New England 450 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: would probably be the team that's leading that right now. Yeah, 451 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: New England would be the team that started the most. 452 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: They've had drives that have finished in the end zone 453 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: by pick sixes or exact. Let's double check this real quick. 454 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: Oh he's gonna check make he's gonna check that stat 455 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: they have not. Yeah, Jordan Lewis gets your pick and 456 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: he gets it right in the other in your own 457 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: end zone. Basically. Yeah. As of as of last week, 458 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys were thirty first in the league in starting 459 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: field position their own twenty three yard line. I'm it's 460 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: worse this week so so far. The closest they've been 461 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: to midfield three times at the forty six, which you'll 462 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: take that. But but this gets back to, Okay, the 463 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,159 Speaker 1: offense having to run more plays to matriculate down the 464 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: football field, you're going to have more opportunities for lack 465 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: of execution, and it ties. It marries defense with offense. 466 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: That's what makes football so great because you might be 467 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: having all sorts of problems on football, but you can 468 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: point a finger over to that defensive side and say, well, 469 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: how come we haven't had any short fields? Yeah, your 470 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: average basically the league averages you get won a game, 471 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys have had none in six games. But 472 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: but the opponents only have two starting in Cowboy territory. 473 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: You go, there you go, So maybe a defense there 474 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 1: you go. That's a good store. Yeah, I would have 475 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: never thought. But the other part of that. It's not 476 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: it's not just takeaways though, it's how about a three 477 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: and out exactly, and have them backed up to where 478 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: they're punting from their own five yard line and you 479 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 1: get a ninety two yard pass. Yeah, I mean that 480 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: was the thought process. If you're going forward, right, you're 481 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: thinking about at least you got if you're winning the 482 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: field position, but play defense trying to punt from that end. 483 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,239 Speaker 1: That's right, that's what you're thinking about. I would give 484 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: up on punt returns. I'd rush the punter every time 485 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: because even if I get us in the fourth and two, 486 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 1: just now, what's that? Yeah? It was, yeah, because that 487 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: that's the that's the silver lining. If you don't make 488 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,360 Speaker 1: it right, if you can, if you can hold them there, 489 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: if you can get them to go three and out there, 490 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: then you get the ball. Get the ball to fifty 491 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: yard the yard line, the old hidden yardage that Bill 492 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: parcels us talk. You talk about that a lot. They 493 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,479 Speaker 1: don't get much on a punt return. The only thing 494 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: they get is a penalty. Might as well just try 495 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 1: to block it, you know, Okay, if you hit the punter, 496 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: so what you know? You know what I saw you 497 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: talk about referees and penalties. I don't want to go 498 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,479 Speaker 1: down the referee path again. They had a penalty they 499 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: called a holding on a kickoff or term when the 500 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: ball went out of the they kicked it out. They 501 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: at that. How do you do that? To touch back? 502 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: A touchback? They get a holding call on a touchback? 503 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 1: How how did officials? How do you call that? I'll 504 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: stop it. Well, even if you called it, did you 505 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: pick up the fla it wants? It's no flag? Yeah, 506 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: just pick it up. Just pick it up. Absolutely there. 507 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Joe in Maryland, your next 508 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: up here on Talking Cowboys. Joe, Hey, guys, thanks wrapping 509 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: me on again. I just wanted to get you guys 510 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 1: his thoughts on coach Garrett. I remember listening to Talking 511 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 1: Cowboys back prior to the two thousand and fourteen season, 512 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: and I was key in on every week with Brian 513 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: trying to get our coach fired, which I was totally 514 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: in ingreence with. But at that time he was on 515 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: the hot seat. So maybe him being on the hot 516 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 1: seat again is not necessarily a bad thing. But I 517 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: also want to say that I think that Jason Garrett's 518 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: an excellent talent evaluator. True, he's helped put together a 519 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: great team, and I think he's kind of being the 520 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: scapegoat here. I think there's deeper issues that's going on 521 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 1: right now. I think the defense needs to be looked 522 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: at the defensive coordinator position. And I mean, I would 523 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: hate to give this guy, even though he's had, you know, 524 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: quite a long time to get over the threshold. But 525 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: I just don't think it's fair for him have let's 526 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: make it to the NFC Championship and then him you know, 527 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: that not be good enough if he does not and 528 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: him lose his job. So I just wanted to get 529 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: you guys thoughts on coach, and UM, I'll hang up 530 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 1: and listen. You've been very fair. You've been You've been 531 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 1: a lot more fair than I have about that, and 532 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: I'll admit that. Um I think to me, though, I'm 533 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: thinking about coach, and we'll see what happens at the 534 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: end of the day. You know, the Joneses are the 535 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: ones who are going to have to, of course make 536 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: the decision the contracts up. But you know, I'm willing 537 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: to let this thing ride and see where it goes. 538 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: You know, I don't think I was very fair to him, 539 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: you know, early in the last three or four years 540 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: for sure. But I'm also concerned about did I miss 541 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: evaluate the talent on this roster? You know that did 542 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: I Did I overrate the talent on this roster? He 543 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: didn't overrate it on offense. We may have made a 544 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: mistake on defense. Yeah, but Nicky, I just kind of 545 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: feel like that, you know, I felt like that vander 546 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: esh Smith make the big jump that secondary plays better. 547 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. I don't recognize this secondary 548 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: right now. I don't. I don't recognize it, and I 549 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: don't I don't recognize the lack of a pass rush, 550 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: a consistent pass rush. It might be the biggest thing. Yeah, 551 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: you know, one weekend we're fighting run defense and the 552 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: next weekend we're talking pass rush. But I don't recognize 553 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: this this defense overall. And and I love Rod Marinelli. 554 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: He's one of the most honest guys in the world. 555 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: You know. I went up to him and I said, Coach, 556 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry we're having to rip you about your defense. 557 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: He says, it's part of what goes on, Brian, it's 558 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: part I appreciate his honesty. He's been at this a 559 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: long time. There's something I should be as an old 560 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: man myself, I should learn from that, you know. But 561 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: the thing about coach, you know, give him this opportunity. 562 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: It's we're a quarter of the way through the season. 563 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,959 Speaker 1: If things don't work out, they don't work out. If 564 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: he gets it done, then by all means he earned it. 565 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: He earned his extension. But I want to take just 566 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: from my point of view, the thought is maybe that 567 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: I overrated this roster overall, and that that in itself, 568 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: maybe they're not a maybe they're not a Super Bowl roster, 569 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: maybe they're not an NFC Championship roster. Maybe they're not 570 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: a divisional roster. But I can't you know, they're right 571 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: in the thicket things because Philadelphia is just in the 572 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: baddest shape as you are, you know. Yeah. So that's 573 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: that's the thing. That's the thing that when I go 574 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: out jogging, that bothers me the most is that I 575 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: that I felt like that I might have mis evaluated 576 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: this roster. I'll let the coach do they'll take care 577 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: of itself. But maybe the roster, that's that's an issue. 578 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's what you misseevaluate though, if 579 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: you just go buy your eyes. Like specifically, they talked 580 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: about the defense, the way they played for the majority 581 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: of last year. That's a young, talented group that did 582 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 1: a lot of things well. Rams game wasn't was an 583 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: exception for sure. And then we go to training care huh, 584 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: I said, or well, there there was a game or 585 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: two in that Colts game was bad Colts games that 586 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: should have opened my eyes. But you go into training 587 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: camp and you watch day after day this team go 588 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: against each other in practice, and you see what this 589 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: offense is capable of doing when they're healthy. How well 590 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: does defense play every day an ox star when we 591 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: watch and play that's a team that that's a defense 592 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,959 Speaker 1: that was flying around, flying around, secondary making plays. I mean, 593 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: there is talent on this team, but they have not 594 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: been consistent, no question about it. But they but they 595 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: played well for four games, with the exception of two 596 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: drives at the end of two of them. Think about it. 597 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: It held the Saints to and I know who was 598 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: playing quarterback, but you held them the thirteen points. But 599 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 1: if you ask them, I mean, let's say, you know 600 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: their own standard, I got you, you know, but these 601 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: last two games, I don't recognize that I don't. I 602 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: don't either. There's no pressure. Yeah, they're giving up big 603 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: plays yeah, and not big plays big plays for touchdowns yeah, 604 00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: and and very few sacks. Where are they added sex? 605 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: I appreciate you saying that that's not I don't think 606 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: then they when they sit down as a unit and 607 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: Christopher Shard, I don't think Christopher Shard has forgotten how 608 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: to coach, or or Rod Marinelli. I think those guys 609 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: are really two quality coaches, two coordinators that are outstanding. 610 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: I feel like, though, that these guys have kind of 611 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: let each other down. And again I feel bad that 612 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: I came out and said, Layton Vanders is this? Jan 613 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: let Smith's this a cheetah e Woosier is this? Xavier Woods? 614 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: Is this? You know? Tank Lawrence is this boy? I'm 615 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: glad they got. Mickey argued with me about how much 616 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: would Robert Quinn really be effective? You know, I think 617 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: he's been okay, But Mickey's right too, I haven't, you know, 618 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 1: one on one he has got to win two sacks? Yeah, good, 619 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: But you know, how about some of the other games. 620 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: How about some of those other you know, how about 621 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: the Packers game? How about you know how a little 622 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: bit more pressure from Tank Lawrence and I'm not focusing 623 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: on the fact of what Tank Lawrence makes and I understand, 624 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: but he's going to have some one on one opportunities. 625 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: I was praising the world the world of Collins, Malie Collins. 626 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 1: He's up for contract. Da da da da da. MALIEK. 627 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: Collins hasn't played Willie nearly as well enough as he 628 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: needs to be. And probably they drafted Hill because they 629 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: were worried about MALIEK. Collins even here, and then what 630 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: is what is Hill done? Hill done anything? So I mean, 631 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: I think that to me, the expectations that that were 632 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: that maybe I set for this team were not realistic. 633 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: And that's that's what bothers me the most. As I 634 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: watched this defense play right now, that's what bothers me because, 635 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: like I said, they are not consistent from down to down. 636 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: They might get a stop and get a two yard 637 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: a tackle for loss, and then the next play at 638 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: second to twelve and they give up, like Mickey says, 639 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: a fifteen yard. That's the thing. There are some chunk 640 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: plays in this game. It's funny if you look at 641 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 1: some of the stats postgame. Just were two to ten 642 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 1: on third down. Yeah, yeah, and they couldn't run the ball. 643 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: There were some good things in there, but then the 644 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: ninety two yard touchdown happens when he doesn't get the 645 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: third down because you're doing so well on first and second. 646 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 1: Well two drives including the ninety two yards. Yeah, Okay, 647 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 1: they gave up five plays of twenty four yards or 648 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 1: more and they get two sacks. So now that's fourteen 649 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 1: sacks for the season, and I think that puts them 650 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: on pace for thirty seven That is mediocre. And two 651 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: hits on Sam Darnold, yeah only Yeah, so at your 652 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: quarterback got hit eight times, right, and that was a 653 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: deal where you're in a situation where there and Mickey 654 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: was very accurate about this, is talking about their offensive 655 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 1: line was a mess. You know, their offensive line legitially 656 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: it was a mess coming into this game, and you 657 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: were not able to take advantage of guys moving around 658 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: playing other positions. I understand Sam Darnold was able to 659 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 1: move around, but you just did not attack him in 660 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: that pocket to affect the game the way it needed 661 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: to be affected, you know.

Yeah, Cody 770 00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: Parkey was the last kicking signed off the free agent heap. 771 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 1: Mike Nugent was like the Nugent? How old's he? He's 772 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: still kicking in New England? Right? He was? He was 773 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: just prior to Park Nugent was signed England. There's not 774 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: a lot of kickers out there. Bryant signed with Atlanta 775 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: in August and he's forty six years They missed the game, 776 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: you know in Arizona night. My answer to you, has 777 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: scored touchdowns and he may be released soon. They were 778 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 1: one five. She along with the coach. He's older than 779 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,720 Speaker 1: the coach, isn't he? Yeah, Bryant probably, I'm not sure. 780 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 1: I'm not sure you can make a trade to match 781 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: what happened last year to make a significant difference on 782 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: this team. You know, maybe even kind of spoke to 783 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 1: it yesterday. They just want to get some guys healthy, 784 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 1: fifth or sixth round pick somewhere fourth. I don't know, 785 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 1: But how good's that guy gonna be? Like Snacks Harrison moved, 786 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 1: But is that the type of player? Remember last year 787 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 1: Detroit picked him up? Yeah, you know from the Giants. 788 00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,799 Speaker 1: That Giants were having a fire sale a little bit 789 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 1: and they gave Snacks up for a fifth round pick. 790 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 1: You know, I know that Alex Loomis and Henry Schroka 791 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: and all those guys are working hard on trying to 792 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,800 Speaker 1: kind of figure some things out. And now the Jets 793 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,399 Speaker 1: supposed lay are going to have some sort of fire 794 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: sat or maybe not. Yeah, well I got New England 795 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 1: this weeks. The change their mind if they don't beat 796 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: New England there one in five. Yeah, I you know, 797 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: I think that you have to try. I think you 798 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 1: have to try and take advantage of some situations if 799 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 1: you can, absolutely do that. Need to kind of get 800 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: with those guys and see if there's a player too 801 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 1: that they have in mind that maybe I can look 802 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 1: at as well. But as far as i'm I'm not 803 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,760 Speaker 1: banking Mickey, correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not banking 804 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: on these offensive tackles being available to Oh. He asked that, Yeah, 805 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 1: the best you would do is get one of the two. Yeah, 806 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 1: and that would be tiring. Yeah, but I don't know 807 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: about that. It sounds like to me to the the 808 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 1: workout didn't go so well. Yeah, Sunday, the workout didn't 809 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 1: go well. And then also too, they've got some big 810 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:04,479 Speaker 1: concerns about Amari Cooper's quad as well, and so that's 811 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: a bruise there that's in the way. Jason answered the 812 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: question about Anthony Brown. I don't know that he's back. Ye, 813 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 1: Wole Collins told us he's feeling better, But it's a 814 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 1: it's an mcl of course, takes it takes a couple 815 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: of weeks, you know, So we'll see if he can 816 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,759 Speaker 1: do anything this week. The bye week's coming at a 817 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 1: good time in one respect, but in the other respect, 818 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 1: you need these guys to go win this game on 819 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: Sun before the Philadelphia get Yeah, yeah, exactly exactly. And 820 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 1: you know, Cobb's another thing. If he could just get back, 821 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: then you've got he can be the second wide receiver 822 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: with Gallup. Yeah, but now the way the way they 823 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 1: played it and ended up being Tavon and then at 824 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: times they had to bring in Ventel Bryant. Yeah, that 825 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 1: was his first time he'd played in the NFL's true. 826 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 1: You had two guys playing for the first time in 827 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: the NFL. Well, second time for Brandon Knight, he played 828 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,439 Speaker 1: a quarter and a half. Yeah, I would, I would 829 00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 1: if you can get Cobb back out there. I saw 830 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 1: Mickey old buddy number thirty eight on the field for 831 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 1: the Eagles Orlando Scandrick playing Nickels stuff. He's eight. Yeah, 832 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: he's over thirty eight. So yeah, if if you can 833 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,799 Speaker 1: find and Jeff Heath can exchange, Yeah, we'll see. Yeah, 834 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: we'll see how that goes. But you know, to me, 835 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: or don't leave Heath in single high coverage. Yeah, Wood's 836 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,240 Speaker 1: back there. I wonder if they if they keep Rashul 837 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,080 Speaker 1: Douglas on the field, I know we'll get into these 838 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: guys tomorrow. Man, if you don't attack him, then by 839 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: all means change the coaches out. I don't mean that 840 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: tongue in cheek, but to me, it's they've got some 841 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: issues in the secondary. You just got to find a 842 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 1: way to protect. He just got to find a way 843 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,759 Speaker 1: to protect on this maybe hot he report. They put 844 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: a picture of Rusuell Douglas, but they replace it with 845 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:45,359 Speaker 1: Mickey Spagnola's picture. You know, right, I could have done, Micky. 846 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 1: Get backpedal just as good. All right, we've backpedaled our 847 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: way through another initiation of Talking Cowboys and with product 848 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 1: that's right.
