Speaker 1: centers in Dallas and four Worth by eleven am, probably

35
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: to do to serve Thanksgiving dinners. So they might have

36
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 1: just pulled all nighters. That's right. They're young enough to

37
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,119
Speaker 1: do that, ye try. Plus they sleep on the plane, Dodd,

38
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: They Yeah, there was a lot of it was pretty

39
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: quiet going home. There was a lot of sleeping going

40
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: on behind it was quiet. Okay, change since I've been

41
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 1: on him. There was only about four people working and

42
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: two of them are in here. Means Bill and I

43
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: weren't working. That's right, we weren't working, Yeah, William and

44
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: Nick Yeah, Hellman, hellman. Sorry he was next to me,

45
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: although he did fall asleep finally. Yeah, all right, we

46
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: are wide awake and getting at it right now. And

47
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,839
Speaker 1: y'all did you all hear Jerry Jones on the radio

48
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: this morning? Any of you here? Jerry? I heard the most.

49
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: I think I missed the first five minutes. All what

50
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: was your big takeaway from that? He didn't read comic books,

51
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: that's right. Hmmmm. Asked him about the passing of stan

52
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: Lee and it's stan Lee, right, Yes, that's right. And

53
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,959
Speaker 1: uh so yeah that was the last question. Anything else.

54
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: I think the thing that the report about over the

55
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: weekend with the uh the changing of the offensive court tour,

56
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: I thought we should go oh sorry, yeah he was.

57
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: He was waiting on you, Bill, waiting on you. I

58
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: was gonna see if mill Mickey was going to ask

59
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: answer the question, but yeah, he did the thing. I

60
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: think that that to me. Uh. Jason Garrett was on

61
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: earlier in the morning with the same guys and they

62
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: asked him, and he said absolutely none, no truth, and

63
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: then left it at that, and then that the owner

64
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: general manager came back and made it a little bit

65
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: more depth to it. And also, you know, I think

66
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 1: that's a I think that we've all been pretty clear

67
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: on this show that we don't see a coaching change.

68
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: You know, you're going to ride this thing out and

69
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: see what you get. And you know, I had a

70
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: nice win the other day, and you know, at the

71
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: end of the year, end of the year, you add

72
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: him up and you see if you were good enough.

73
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 1: I think there's no there's no reason to make any

74
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: type I mean, now they change the offensive line coaches,

75
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 1: and I do want to ask you guys a question

76
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: about that coming up. But yeah, I think that you

77
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: have to you know, you just stay the course with

78
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: what you got and see where it takes in and

79
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: make the decision from there. I thought Stephen was even

80
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: more emphatic about it yesterday. Yeah, when he was on

81
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: in the after well I guess late morning early afternoon show,

82
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,479
Speaker 1: he said, if the only people who would know about

83
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: something like that would be in the room discussing those

84
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: kind of things, and we had no discussion about it,

85
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: So nobody else outside our room would know. So it

86
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: is what it is. And yeah, Jerry has said it

87
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: recently that there will be no in season coaching moves.

88
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: Like Brian said, they're gonna They've made some bye week

89
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: changes in personnel and with a position coach upfront offensive line,

90
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: and what they did the other day is what they're

91
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: hoping they can do the rest of the season to

92
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: try to make a run here, and they're gonna have

93
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 1: care was this exact quote. I don't know where that

94
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: came from. We didn't consider that at all. Yeah, I

95
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: will say this, I've said it before and Mickey will

96
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: echo it. Be weary of the Sunday morning reports on

97
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: things going on on NFL campuses because these reporters they

98
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: are under pressure to have something fresh on Sunday mornings

99
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: for their NFL pregame shows and so they've got to

100
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: come up with something. And so that you would agree

101
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: with that, Mickey, especially mister fifty fifty. Well, everybody's got

102
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: a job to do, you know. Sometimes you know it's

103
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: not fresh though, because they're not day to day into it.

104
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 1: You know, I think there was, well they have to

105
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: save it for Sunday morning. Yeah, I mean, there was

106
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: a one that you know, the Cowboys Garrett had had

107
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: discussed with Nick Saban about Amari Cooper. Well, you know,

108
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 1: we kind of talked about that during the week, But

109
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: you're right, because it's a seven day cycle before they

110
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: hit and they gotta You're right, they got to deliver

111
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: something big on Sunday, and if it truly was news,

112
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,239
Speaker 1: if they truly did have a story there, they wouldn't

113
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: wait till Sunday morning to report it. They report it

114
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: whenever they had the news, which on Thursday or whatever

115
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 1: day of the week it was. So it's it's all speculation,

116
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 1: is all it is. Yeah, I could say I you know,

117
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: you knew that they were going to stay the course

118
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: as far as the head coach and the coordinator. Now,

119
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: the head coach did leave open the opportunity of him

120
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 1: potentially calling place last Tuesday. He did leave that open

121
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: the way his comments, that's something that wasn't made up.

122
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: So if you want to go off that right exactly,

123
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 1: that's actually that's fair. And that's what led us to

124
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: talk about it on Friday. The possibility because Jason Garrett

125
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: was asked about it last Tuesday at his press conference

126
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 1: and what how did he phrase it? For now, right now,

127
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: right now, right now? He said, yeah, right now, right now,

128
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, yeah, that's not going to happen right now.

129
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 1: You could yeah, you could take that as a qualifier.

130
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: But you know what, I'll guarantee you on the headset,

131
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: he's changing things. He's making suggestions. That's what I should

132
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: have asked him in the walk off yesterday. And I

133
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: was kicking myself leaving of you know, was there more

134
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: conversation between you and Scott other than get a play

135
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: ready for fourth down? You know, coaches will click over

136
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: and say, hey, I'm thinking about this right now, and

137
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: fourth down, have something ready, you know, just to kind

138
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: of give the play call or an idea of what

139
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: he's thinking so you know that you don't get caught

140
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: we have to burn the time out or something like that.

141
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: But I wonder if there was a little bit more

142
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: discussion than normal than the normal Hey Scott, what are

143
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: you guy? And you know, he could hear the plays

144
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: and you know, you would think that you know, maybe

145
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: he says, hey, go back to your run here, go

146
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: back to your you know, try and get Coop involved

147
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: here a little bit more. You know, maybe it was

148
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,679
Speaker 1: there was there more, And I'm kind of kicking myself

149
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: for not asking that question, But don't you think that's

150
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: a standard procedure when you get into those situations. I

151
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of times where we see Jason

152
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: Garrett on the sidelines and he's very intent on listening

153
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: to what's going on. And he seemed he appeared and again,

154
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: I my advantage is getting to sit there and watch

155
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: the game in a studio, and it appeared he was

156
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: a little bit more animated, and I mean animated waving

157
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: his hands, but a little bit more conversational in this

158
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: game than he normally was. But I don't mean that

159
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: just for him. I mean for regular head coaches to

160
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: tell your offensive coordinator, Okay, you've got two plays to

161
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: pick this up. Yeah. No, that's that's what I'm saying.

162
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask the question whether there was there

163
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: more discussion about play calling as opposed to you're generally

164
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: what you're saying about, Hey, I'm thinking about going on

165
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: fourth down here? Are you a little bit more involved?

166
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: Are you a little bit more involved? Not that you

167
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: got the sheet in your hand, but I missed an

168
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: opportunity right there are the last three or four games

169
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: he's been more involved. Yeah, and I don't know that

170
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: Scuba follow up making way and either making suggestions or saying, hey,

171
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: let's go with this. Yeah. I just think I mean,

172
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: he's the head coach. Why not. That guy's got your

173
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 1: job in his hands. And then and I think you

174
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: got to have some sort of communication, especially sometimes when

175
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: you're up there and I'm down here, right, I got

176
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: a better feel maybe of what's going on exactly exactly.

177
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you see better up there, but sometimes you

178
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: don't get the feel of what's going on the players.

179
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: Look at the players eyes, look at the player's eyes

180
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: and see if they got it or not. You know that.

181
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I know Jimmy used to do that routinely

182
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: with North Turner. He would tell North, if you got

183
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: two players to pick this up, pick it up, figure

184
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: it out. Yeah. Well, the other thing is if you're

185
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: in and that would be a great question, Brian, But

186
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: if you're in Jason Garrett's position, knowing their speculation out

187
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: there about it, you're coming off a good game if

188
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: you answer that question, Yeah, I was more involved than

189
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: it makes it look like that you were the reason

190
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 1: that there was even more positive you know, and so

191
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: I guess, even if it is off the record, right,

192
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: if I was a fan, if I was a fan,

193
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I mean we cover this team.

194
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: But if I was a fan, I after what I've

195
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: seen and I and I trust me, I respect Scotland

196
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 1: in Ahan, but I would have wanted Jason after what

197
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: I saw in Tennessee, I would have wanted Jason Garrett

198
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 1: to start calling plays. I would, I think Jason. I

199
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: think Jason Garrett is a very capable play caller, I

200
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: really really do. And I think that he I think

201
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,839
Speaker 1: he could get I thought, well, I think he could

202
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: get more guys involved. But you know, Scott did a

203
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: nice job in the game. And now whether Jason was

204
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: directing him a little bit more or kind of talking

205
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: to him a little bit more, I don't know. But

206
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: I do know that the offense the way that it

207
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: ran the other night, and I don't think it was

208
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: just as simple as take you know, put Sue Philo

209
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 1: in there at at left guard. I think the fact

210
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: the addition to front office made with Mauri Cooper has

211
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: played huge dividends here. You know, the offense appears to

212
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: have that we had a call or yesterday talk about

213
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: a little little bit more juice, you know, a little

214
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: bit more juice with the with the offense. But you know,

215
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: if they had had a bad game in Philadelphia on

216
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: Sunday night, I would have been when the first ones

217
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 1: coming in your Monday morning saying Jason Garrett needs to

218
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 1: call the plays. That would have been me. You know,

219
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: looking at that Cooper trade now and when you look

220
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: at what's going on around the league with the points

221
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: being scored in this league, you look back at that

222
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: that that was a move that had to be made.

223
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: And it's not just and I'm not talking about just

224
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: for this year, but going forward. Yeah, I think we're

225
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: looking at this year what the NFL is going to

226
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: be like, not only this year, but next year and

227
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: on down the road. Where the emphasis on scoring points

228
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: in this league and it's always kind of been like that,

229
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: but it's gone. It's almost like it's on steroids now

230
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: where you're getting team scoring over fifty points in games

231
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: and stuff. Yeah, where you had to improve that aspect

232
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: of this Well, they're not letting you smash receivers over

233
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: the middle, and they're not letting you hit the quarterback. Yeah,

234
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: so they're encouraging you to score points and find ways

235
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: to score points. They're making it very difficult for defenses,

236
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: as we all know. But the violence, the violent aspect

237
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: of playing defense now is no longer prevalent in the

238
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: way these games are being play. The rules are yes

239
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: designed more now to help the passing game and let

240
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: that be your first priority as an offense. The Cowboys

241
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 1: have done it a little differently, and again it did

242
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: bear itself out to some degree in this last game.

243
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 1: When they run the ball with Zeke and run it effectively,

244
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: they usually win the football game. I think they're thirteen

245
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: and three when he gets one hundred yards plus. But

246
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: they also got some chunk plays in the passing game

247
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: the other night, and that was something that's been missing.

248
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 1: And you mentioned Amari Cooper, and that's been a big

249
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: factor that. The other thing it's done with his presence

250
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: is they they finally paired down this rotation at receiver

251
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: a little bit. They've got their guys, you know, hearns

252
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: is being effective, but in fewer snaps it's largely been Cooper,

253
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 1: Gallop and Beasley should be instead of five six guys

254
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: early in the season when they were trying to figure

255
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: it out well Gallup was trying to figure it out too,

256
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 1: and so you would have expected at the beginning of

257
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: the season that Gallop is going to be better the

258
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: second half of the year just because him simply being

259
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: a rookie. Yes, Mickey, I was going to say before

260
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: I thought of this, that can we bury this notion

261
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 1: that defense wins championships. You've been saying that for how

262
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: long fifteen years? Gallop fifty seven of sixty nine snaps

263
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: in the game. He had the most of any of

264
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: the wide receivers. I think he's had the most cumulatively

265
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: for three weeks now or so, three or four games.

266
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: That's the way it should be. I mean, now that

267
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: Cooper's here, that's going to probably change. But yeah, he's

268
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: coming on, He's coming on. He seems more confident and

269
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: Cooper for a new guy, has had one hundred and

270
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: eleven of one hundred and twenty eight snaps in two games,

271
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: So it should be yeah, yeah, Well they they clearly

272
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: they misseevaluated the whole thing. You know, I think the

273
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: misevaluation started with their they believe that they could run

274
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: the ball no matter what. No, and then you know,

275
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: the injury or the illness to the center robbed him

276
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: of that opportunity. The regression of the right tackle robbed

277
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: him of that. You know, and they played some good opponents.

278
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: I think Mickey's been very adamant about that pointing out

279
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: out I think that you have, you know, played against

280
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: some good defenses that have limited what you can do.

281
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: But you know they're trying to They're they're trying to

282
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: make it right. And I think through two games, I

283
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: think we would all say that the at least with

284
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: the Marii Cooper, you know, in the game, it gives

285
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: them a chance. I mean third downs of you know,

286
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: at least now it's not just so much a okay,

287
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: we'll get you, they're actually converting it. At that third

288
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: and fifteen call, I was a great call. You got

289
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: Michael Gallop in the game and you're throwing it to

290
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: the short side of the field and it shouldn't work,

291
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: but it did work. And you know, those are the

292
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 1: types of players you need to have. Man, you can't

293
00:14:58,520 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: go out there and convert a bunch of third and fifty.

294
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: But at least, why this team you feel like they

295
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: got a chance. Felt like early in the season, if

296
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: they were they were dead. Yeah, they were dead. They

297
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: were going to call a screen pad. Yeah, yeah, that

298
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: that was kind of the answer. It was like, okay,

299
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: we just got a sack. It's third and eighteen. Let's

300
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: throw the screen. We'll get eight yards and we'll punt. Punt.

301
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 1: Now you had Now you have the capability of getting

302
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: the ball in some playmaker's hands. You have the you know,

303
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: get the ball in Gallop's hands, get the ball in

304
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: a Maury Cooper's hands. You know, Alan hearns, you know,

305
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: God bless him. And I said it yesterday. He could

306
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: have he could have just you know, sulked and said okay,

307
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: or you know, I'm not gonna play anymore. I'm just

308
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: gonna keep my getting my check every Tuesday and not.

309
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: But you know, he he gets two or three players

310
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: a game, and he makes the he makes good of him.

311
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: He makes you know, he's he's a good route runner.

312
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: He's not fast, you know, he's not quick, but he's reliable.

313
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: And I think that's really the most important thing. This

314
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: quarterback needs reliable players. And it looks like to me

315
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: he's got some reliable players now. Now a wide receiver,

316
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: with the way this thing has been paired down, I

317
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: think I think Steven said it yesterday when he said

318
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: they were really suffocating the line of scrimmage on us

319
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: before Cooper got yeah yeah, and he's right, yeah yeah.

320
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: And I think you saw a huge difference not only

321
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: in his play, but how it's affected everything else. It's

322
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: not often that so far you've watched Cooper and he

323
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: doesn't win on his route. I mean, he is open

324
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: a lot, and that makes a big difference because it's

325
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: not only for him, it's what defenses have to do

326
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: to maybe account for that, and all of a sudden,

327
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: guys have opportunities that maybe they didn't have early in

328
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 1: the season. Well, I think I said it yesterday. But

329
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: if he's going down feeling at nine route and it's

330
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: a tie, he's opened because he's gonna put it in

331
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: that extra shame they missed him. Yeah, that's what happened

332
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: on that one. The ball got up in the air

333
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden he pulled away from

334
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: that guy. That's that's a shame that because you know,

335
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: you can't you see, there's there's so much talk about

336
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: this quarterbacks in accuracy and he can't do this and

337
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: can't get you know, you hit a few of those plays,

338
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: people are like, going, well, now he threw a good

339
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: deep ball. The other day he threw you know, that

340
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 1: passed he through Hurns was right before the end of

341
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: the half was a good pass. The pass he threw

342
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: to Beasley to get eighteen yards after the screen was

343
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: a good pass. Yes, guy's capable. But when he misses

344
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: those open routes, and that's when you start to say,

345
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 1: you know, and we all kind of collectively jump on

346
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: him about no, he's not doing this and not doing that.

347
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: If he hits just a few moan of those, I

348
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: think people would kind of say, Okay, I see it now,

349
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: I get what's going on here. So yeah, I just

350
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 1: I just I'd like to see him hit a few

351
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: more of those. And especially with the way that guy

352
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: can get open, I mean, we see it. He just separates.

353
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 1: He's just a different player out there. But I think

354
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 1: he's got to get used to that because I think

355
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 1: in the quarterback, yeah, in his mind was if I

356
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 1: underthrow this, this is gonna be bad. Yeah, so let

357
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: me get it out there. Oh, you would rather much

358
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: for them overthrow a ball that they land and hope,

359
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,479
Speaker 1: like hell that gallop and Cooper and those guys can

360
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: run those down. But man, I mean that open, you know,

361
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: I mean Douglas, the Douglas, the cornerback was waving his

362
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: arms like incomplete and like, bro, you were burned so bad?

363
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: Why you celebrate? You ought to be like pumps up

364
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: to the heavens. That was relieved. That was scared reaction

365
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: is what that was. Yeah. Yeah, I'm looking back through

366
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: the play by play of Sunday Nights game, and Brian,

367
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: you were big hitting on the fact that they didn't

368
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: take advantage of their opportunities in the first time exactly,

369
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: and I agree with that. However, when you look at

370
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: the second half of that game, and especially when you

371
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 1: put it in the context of what happened the week

372
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: before with this team against Tennessee, where in the third

373
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 1: quarter Tennessee took control of that game and Dallas basically

374
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 1: whimpered and went home, you know, And when you look

375
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: at the third quarter of this game, Dallas had a

376
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 1: three and out to start the third quarter. Eagles come down,

377
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 1: they kick a field goal. They had a thirteen three lead. Okay,

378
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: Eagles kick a field goal on their first drive. Now

379
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: it's thirteen six. Then you have a miss field goal

380
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 1: after their long Zeke runs, right, all right, so there's

381
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: some more unforced adversity, right, Okay, Eagles come down, They

382
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: put together a sixty eight yard drive and tie the

383
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: game up at thirteen. So now with two minutes left

384
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, this game is getting away from you, right, okay.

385
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: And what do they do at that point? They use

386
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: Zeke seven of nine plays on a touchdown drive of

387
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: seventy five yards and take control of the game again

388
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 1: at twenty to thirteen. I mean, there were there was

389
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 1: a couple of passes to Zeke, including the it started

390
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: with a past to Zeke, it ended with a past

391
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: to Zeke, and there were five Zeke runs in the

392
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: middle of that nine play drive. And that's what they

393
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: had not done in the second half of games previously

394
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 1: that they lost. Is this where we're seeing the influence

395
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: of Mark Colombo a little bit as a line coach.

396
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: You know, maybe at you know, the Tennessee game, you

397
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: kind of you're thinking, Okay, this is new, you know,

398
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,239
Speaker 1: new opportunity for him. But you know, now now the

399
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 1: second weekend, is this where we're seeing a little bit

400
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:13,919
Speaker 1: more toughness and physical aggressiveality. Yeah, Dak Dak and Zeke

401
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: after the game mentioned the offensive line coach. Yeah, and

402
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever heard that before, you say, oh,

403
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: the offensive line picked it up. They specifically mentioned Colombo

404
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: as as there was a difference out there. So and oh,

405
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: by the way, after the Cowboys take that twenty to

406
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: thirteen lead, the Eagles come back down again and score

407
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: in seventy four yard seven play drive. So they scored

408
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: on their first three possessions of the second half. So

409
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 1: now you're tied up again, and now you got to

410
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: do it again, and they did it again to take

411
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: the lead. And then you had finally had the drive

412
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: where vander esh and Heath made the plays a critical

413
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: on third and fourth down. Yeah, they needed a couple

414
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 1: of plays, right, and they strick out him. They strick

415
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: ot him, I think. And they that last one was

416
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: throwing the football, right, that's yea touchdown drive. Right. Well,

417
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 1: well they had you're talking Dallas's drive. Yeah, Well, they

418
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: started throwing the football and then they ended it with Zeke.

419
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 1: Of course, they got down on the goal line and

420
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: then they handed it to Zeke, which isn't in contrast

421
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: to what the offensive coordinator has done at times in

422
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: the past when you got first in Gold at the

423
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: two yard line Seattle last year, and you don't hand

424
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: it to Zie in the game too, he didn't get

425
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: it down there close. I'm wrong, Zeke. He didn't touch

426
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,239
Speaker 1: the ball around that kind of quarterback sneak when they

427
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 1: got down at the end of the half. Yeah, what

428
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 1: were I thinking of? I'll think about it. It might

429
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 1: have been the touchdown last week too. I was. I

430
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: was hopeful that they would just keep handing to the

431
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: Zeke and if he was getting stopped at getting closer,

432
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 1: I was okay with that because I kiss I kept

433
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: seeing the clock run, you know, I was like, okay,

434
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: keep running, keep running, keep running, keep running. And you know,

435
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 1: I was trying to I started to realize the condition

436
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,479
Speaker 1: of my defense wasn't very good. But they made They

437
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: end up making to stop. But I was worried at

438
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: the end of that football game. I didn't want to

439
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 1: send h I didn't want to send those guys back

440
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: out there with a lot of time, you know, to

441
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 1: have to deal with there. I'm sorry, I was thinking

442
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 1: of the after the Zeke hurdle play, they get down

443
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: to the eight r and Zeke doesn't touch it again.

444
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 1: They wind up kicking a field goal plus four deck

445
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: plus zero sack. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, Well, because they were

446
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 1: trying to throw it, he might have you know, he

447
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: might have needed a breatherer too. I'm tired of that

448
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,679
Speaker 1: breather stuff too. By the way, he didn't need a breather, okay,

449
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: but no, right after the run, it's the play was

450
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: hardly over and then you they're they're sending Smith in. Yeah,

451
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 1: is that okay? I'm just talking about the eye test, guys?

452
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: Is is he in good condition? Am I asking a

453
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: question that's this in week ten that I shouldn't be asking?

454
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 1: Or is you know, does he is? He? Does he

455
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: look like he's physically he didn't tap out? Yeah, I

456
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 1: saw it on the on the I saw it when

457
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: the replay and they had Smith coming in right away

458
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: before they even got close to the huddle. Yeah. A

459
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: lot of fans were asking about that on Twitter during

460
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: the game. Burst there was a burst. I mean, he

461
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: did hurdle that guy. That was pretty impressive. The thirty

462
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 1: that wasn't even as long as run. He had the

463
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 1: thirty five yard run, which I thought he was gonna

464
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: take it to the house and he didn't quite do it.

465
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell that they had the end zone camera.

466
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: Oh you were still upset? What do you think of that?

467
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: I was screaming in the get Taylor's like, Brian, shut up.

468
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: I was screaming it. And then they were trying to

469
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: tell me it's the video game look, And I don't

470
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: like the I mean, I don't mind watching games and stuff,

471
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,959
Speaker 1: end zone stuff, but I didn't like Yeah, I mean

472
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: you lose perspective on where he is on the field

473
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 1: running and and of course I tweaked something out about

474
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: it a couple of times, and and and you got killed.

475
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: I bet no, no, no, people agreed, no, no, I

476
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: it was at nine to one agreeing with me. And

477
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 1: then the one guy is, ah, noah, you can watch

478
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: it much better that way. Well, yeah, I got no

479
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: problem on coaches film. Yeah, I'd love watching the end

480
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 1: zone angle on a replay, Yeah, but not live action.

481
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: And it's a it's a promotional gimmick that NBC's doing

482
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: on Sunday Night Football. And it's ridiculous With Zeke. I mean,

483
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: it's hard to argue with the way he played in

484
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 1: the game. I mean he was he was fantastic. Um

485
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,239
Speaker 1: that's maybe his best game of the season other than

486
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 1: a Detroit game. He did have that stuff the knee

487
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: and the ankle mid season. He's not on the injury

488
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 1: report any anymore. He lines up in play. Yeah, question,

489
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you think something might be still bothering him

490
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: a little bit. I don't know, and I'd like to

491
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: find out, because there's there's a couple of runs there

492
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: that I thought, he man, that Zeke's gonna finish this thing. Yeah,

493
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 1: I mean thinking, man, he turns the corner and he

494
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 1: goes and generally nobody catches him, you know. And we

495
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: saw it on the screen the other day that he

496
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: had a good run, you know, he finished a run there,

497
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: and I just kind of was, I was thinking, what

498
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: he gets in the open field. I've always believed that

499
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 1: he has a chance to finish the run, you know,

500
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: I mean, and I and and then there was a

501
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 1: couple of times there where I'm like, oh, you know,

502
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: and hey, he lost his balance when he jumped over

503
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: the guy. That was unfortunate, you know, because I thought

504
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: he was going to finish that run. But one on

505
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: the sideline he ran out of space, right he was

506
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: trying to turn the corner and he and he got

507
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, he started veering out

508
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: of balance and that's what they caused a fumble. Matter

509
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: of fact, jake out of his hand. Yeah, Yeah, so

510
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: they gave him a fumble on that play. But he

511
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: you know, I just I don't know. I'm trying to

512
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: figure I'm trying to figure out because I just every

513
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: time I've ever seen him get in space, I've seen

514
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: him just run away from people, and I wonder if,

515
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: like you said, Rob, is it is it? Is it physical?

516
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: Or is there something else going on here? You know? Yeah,

517
00:25:54,280 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 1: maybe I'm making too much else. Yeah, he absolutely did, Mickey,

518
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: but he probably could have had two hundred and fifty yards.

519
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: The bar is pretty high for him, you know, It's like, yeah,

520
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: could he could he have done a little bit more? Yeah,

521
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: because he had another thirty six in the passing game,

522
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: so he wound up with one hundred and eighty seven. Yeah.

523
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 1: And it reminded me of Halloween twenty five years ago

524
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: and Emmett Smith when he ran for two hundred and

525
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: thirty seven yards against the Eagles and he did not

526
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: have any catches that I looked it up, and so

527
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 1: he was on a pace to do that had they

528
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 1: given him the football in the last drive of the game,

529
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: by the way, I mean the last possession. Yeah, with

530
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: getting the ball back with a minute nine left, they

531
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 1: got it fast. Yeah. I didn't get face masked, but

532
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: I do not there with that flight call, No, there was.

533
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: It was running outside what you're what you're risking. There

534
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: is a holding call that's gonna set you back ten

535
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: yards and you have no chance to get in the

536
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 1: first That's exactly right. Yeah, and then it was passed

537
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,719
Speaker 1: to Beasley and then you know, Dak whatever. You know.

538
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: But if you just run Zeke between the tackles, try

539
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 1: to get the first down and in the game. Yeah,

540
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 1: but if you're running sideways, we said that on the sideline,

541
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: like they've got their time outs, but can they stop

542
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: them stop Zeke from getting a first down? And basically

543
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: you get a first down, then you're the game's over. Yeah.

544
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: The officials clearly helped. If you go back and watch

545
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: the play, Zeke gets face mask John Perry and his

546
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: crew just don't call it right, you know, that's okay.

547
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 1: Now that's a fifteen yard penalty forward and then that's

548
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: a Now they're having to deal with a new set

549
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 1: of downs. A fresh set and they're not gonna be

550
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: They're not gonna go get the ball back right. So yeah,

551
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: and that's the way it is. I mean, these games,

552
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 1: you know, but how many penalties did the Eagles get

553
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 1: called for? Well, Mickey, we know the question. I mean,

554
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: just thought i'd bring that up. Now we know the

555
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 1: answer to that. I guess we're taking breaks here on

556

Speaker 1: How long you been doing that judging? Yeah, I don't know.

613
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: It's been long enough. It's been long enough to remember.

614
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: How not how long? What year? No? I have no

615
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: idea nineteen ninety three, what year? Just go ahead and

616
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: say it. It might have been ten years, Just just

617
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: ten years. Yeah, since I when I started going on

618
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: the trips to do the show. How are those trips

619
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: long and tiring? Do you know what time when they

620
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 1: start in the morning? No, I don't. I've never been

621
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: on five o'clock. I've done three of them, and it's

622
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 1: not the worst thing in the world. He's on ourselves.

623
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: That's fine. You're in paradise for a week. It's okay.

624
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: I just said it was long and tiring. I didn't

625
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: say those Oh, okay, it's wonderful, Bill. So what work

626
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: are you doing there? You're watching the photos sheets, You're

627
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: watching cheerleaders photos shot, you goin doing interviews, you have

628
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 1: to gotten to So how would you do a show

629
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: without interviews? Well, is that nautique swimsuit one of your favorites?

630
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 1: And that's and that's seeing that's the hard part, asked Rob.

631
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: Because you can do it that way and it's the

632
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,479
Speaker 1: most boring thing in the world. But if you're on

633
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: top of your game, you find something out interesting about

634
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: the ladies that is more than just putting a bathing

635
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: suit on. Micky, you remember I asked the cheerleader, those

636
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: those two girls, I asked if they've ever cheered Mad

637
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 1: cheered Mad? Yeah? Did you ask ycause he covers the

638
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: team Mad. Yeah. Yeah. Mickey and I. Mickey and I

639
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 1: had were doing interviews with the cheerleader. We were doing

640
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: media training India Chin. A matter of fact, it was

641
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 1: like six hours of work. Mickey and I were doing it.

642
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: We I think we were on for thirty seconds that

643
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: CMTE thing. So we didn't do it for the face.

644
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: I got a boot. I gotta signed cheerleader boot out

645
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: of the deal. It's one of the most interesting thing.

646
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: We've got two of them right now. Yeah, so you

647
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 1: got a pair, and so where do you have this

648
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: your office? Your boots closet? I haven't figured out a

649
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 1: spot to put. Yeah, put in the office anyway. No,

650
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: I asked the cheerleader, I do you ever cheer Mad?

651
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: You know, like you know, you you ever get like

652
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 1: fired up to where you're know, And she's like the

653
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: one girl, No, you know, you gotta smile and you

654
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 1: gotta be And I'm like, but you never, like you know,

655
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: it's like it's the Eagles. You never you know, you're

657
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: not really, you know it's a yeah, big wrong person.

658
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: You remember who cheered Mad? Who cheered Mad? Sonny? That's

659
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: some sense. She was the biggest cowboy fans ever growing

660
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 1: up that she would like she would tell us, yeah,

661
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: I gotta have that forced smile. Yeah. Well all right,

662
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: and and and know this too. She's still she's got

663
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: three kids now, two kids. They still have the cuss

664
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: cup when they watch the game, Like when you cuss

665
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 1: that's good money, fuck it? Yeah, the kids do. Yeah,

666
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 1: that was training them. Well, Bill, all right, let's go

667
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 1: to Dave in California. You're up on talking cowboys. Hello day,

668
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: good morning. How are you guys doing the fun game

669
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: one that I've been watching tape on Atlanta and I

670
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys have done that yet, but gosh,

671
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,919
Speaker 1: we don't match up well. They're so strong on both

672
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 1: sides of the line, and they're still players are good,

673
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 1: but they just don't tackle well and the receivers are

674
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: dropping balls and it keeps the other teams in the game.

675
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 1: I'd like to hear your thoughts on that. I just

676
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: don't think we can go down there and overcome turnover

677
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 1: or a bad special teams play. We don't have the talent.

678
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: We don't match up well enough to overcome that down there.

679
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: I also watched Washington since their offensive line got beat up,

680
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 1: and they're not the same team. They're struggling. The quarterback

681
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 1: isn't comfortable back there, and I don't think that's the

682
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: team we're in a race with. I think we're going

683
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: to be in a race with Philly doin this division.

684
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 1: I'd like to hear your thoughts on that. And you

685
00:34:55,800 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 1: guys are talking about Sunday Morning reporting and how much

686
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: pressure they're under to get in a story. Gosh, don't

687
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: justify that. We don't need lazy reporting the way this

688
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: nation's going right now. Let's hold them accountable too. All right, guys,

689
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: Thanks all right, thank you, Dave. Last part was the

690
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:22,720
Speaker 1: best thing, he said. Atlanta. Of course, Atlanta had injury

691
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 1: issues on defense the early part of the season. They

692
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: have gotten the linebacker back, haven't they. I haven't watched

693
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 1: their defense. I've watched their offense. I've started on their offense,

694
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,720
Speaker 1: and I've asked Jones. Yeah, he's really a good player,

695
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: and I have a better feel for what they're doing offensively.

696
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,840
Speaker 1: He's right about them dropping some footballs. They're going to

697
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: get a lot of guys involved though. You know, when

698
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: you talk about Jones and snow Ridley, of course, I

699
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 1: mean they threw a ball at his kid, Hall number

700
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: seventeen and Marvin Hall, Yeah, and he dropped it. So yeah,

701
00:35:54,920 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: they've got Offen. Yeah, Hooper is a big player for them,

702
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 1: play play twelve personnel stuff, Matt Ryan throwing the ball

703
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: a lot on the move, you know, I mean by design,

704
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,359
Speaker 1: not him having to move around a bunch. But they

705
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,359
Speaker 1: they are a big play action team. You're gonna have

706
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: to be ready for a lot of fakes. That way,

707
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to be ready for guys that you know,

708
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 1: a lot of boots waggles, nakeds things like that. That's

709
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: kind of what their offense is. Tevin Coleman is a

710
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,280
Speaker 1: kind of an all around back. His ability to catch

711
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 1: to run I think is really good. And then they're

712
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 1: using Edo Smith as well, and Edo Smith is a

713
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 1: guy they'll throw the football too. So just my first

714
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 1: little indication watching the Washington game. I just started at

715
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: matter of fact that I just got done with the

716
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,720
Speaker 1: Cleveland game, so we'll see some more. But it looks

717
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: like things are pretty much intact for them offensively when

718
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 1: it comes to the line and stuff like that. I do.

719
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 1: I do think you're gonna have to deal with a

720
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 1: lot of receivers and you know, I can say if

721
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: they continue to drop the football and then that will

722
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: help you in that regard. He's right about Washington. I

723
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 1: know that that's the next game after Atlanta. But their

724
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 1: injuries up front have affected them, and they you know,

725
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 1: they had something to do with it, but they were

726
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: fortunate the Tampa Bay gave the ball away as much

727
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 1: as they did in that game. With five hundred plus

728
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: yards of total offense whatever the Bucks had in that game,

729
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 1: how do you have five hundred yards with three points?

730
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: Three points? Yeah, crazy has that ever happened. I wonder,

731
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: or at least not a long time now, what happened

732
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 1: to Atlanta in Cleveland. Baker Mayfield happened. Yeah, he felt dangerous.

733
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: He woke up that morning just feeling dangerous. So their

734
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,800
Speaker 1: defense didn't play very well the Atlantis. I didn't see that.

735
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: I haven't watched Atlanta's defense yet, so I can't tell you.

736
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: I didn't watch the game. I know they're offense though

737
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: that Cleveland did a pretty good job of them hanging

738
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: in there with them, you know, didn't allow him to.

739
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: But the caller's right, I mean the drops or something.

740
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,799
Speaker 1: You would not think that, you know, Atlanta, the way

741
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: they are with the receivers, that they would drop the

742
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: ball as much as they have. But they it's clear.

743
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 1: I mean, they have guys that are open, I mean

744
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 1: wide open. They're dropping the football. So that's that's if.

745
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: Hopefully that trend will carry on for them in this week.

746
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,320
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb for Cleveland ran for one hundred and seventy

747
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 1: six yards on twenty carries in a touchdown. He also

748
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: had three catches thirty three yards in a touchdown. Mayfield

749
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: was seventeen out of twenty for two hundred and sixteen

750
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 1: yards ten yards for attempts. I know coming into this

751
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 1: game that they've had six straight games where they've given

752
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: up three touchdown passes in the game. I think that's

753
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,359
Speaker 1: I think that's Atlanta. Yea Atlanta has I think they're

754
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,840
Speaker 1: on a bad run that way, but they they've clearly struck.

755
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to seeing, you know what happened, you

756
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: know what's happening with them as far as their defensive

757
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: front and all at Vic Beasley and and those guys

758
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: you Grady Jared. I mean, those are a couple of

759
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: pretty good players. I wonder if they really if their

760
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: play has fallen off that that much. So we'll see.

761
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,399
Speaker 1: And well, as long as Adrian Clayborne's not there, he's

762
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,439
Speaker 1: not there on the pats yep, New England Patriot. Now.

763
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: You know, um, when you look at to where the

764
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 1: Cowboys were last year going to Atlanta, and that was

765
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: part of the series of three straight games where the

766
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: season got away from the Cowboys. Last year, there was

767
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: a horrible stretch of three games. Of course, as he

768
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:17,720
Speaker 1: just started his suspension, Cowboys were five and three going

769
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,760
Speaker 1: into that heck of a game. They beat Kansas City

770
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: pretty exactly game going that way and had a couple

771
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,399
Speaker 1: of you know, they had San Francisco and Washington prior

772
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 1: to the Kansas City, but Kansas City, which was big win. Yeah, yeah,

773
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: quality win, right, and then Zeke gets suspended and Tyran

774
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 1: Smith goes down ye, and Sean Lee goes down. So

775
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: now you're at a point that going in this year

776
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: to Atlanta virtually the same part of the season, you're

777
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 1: going in at four and five, and you have an

778
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: opportunity to do the opposite of what happened last year.

779
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 1: I mean, you're coming off a big win against Philadelphia,

780
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,280
Speaker 1: just like you're coming off a big win against Kansas

781
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 1: City last year, and now let's see what they can do. Yeah. No,

782
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,399
Speaker 1: I'm interested because you know, if if Cleveland was able

783
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: to run the ball as successfully as they were, I

784
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 1: think as a Cowboy fan and again I'm looking forward

785
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: to seeing that game. I think you have to be

786
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: excited about that. But if they're giving up stuff in

787
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: the past, and you know, and and and you know,

788
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: and market's Truefon and Robert Alfred Alfred and those guys

789
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: aren't covering very well, I'll take my chances with with

790
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: uh Maury Cooper and you know, those guys throwing the

791
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: ball and and and see and see how it plays out.

792
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 1: You know, if you could get some good balance. Evidently,

793
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,360
Speaker 1: you know, Cleveland beat him with some pretty good balance,

794
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: I know offensively, you know, with that with the run

795
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: pass ratio and the stuff that they I mean, seventeen

796
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 1: of twenty, that's what she said. Baker Mayfield. Ye, for

797
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: two hundred and sixteen yards. It's ten yards in a

798
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 1: ten Yeah, nothing wrong with that. So we'll see and

799
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: they you know, Atlanta is uh, but they're a team

800
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 1: like you. They're very desperate. You know, they're four and

801
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: five two and they're trying to figure out you know,

802
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: I mean if they how what direction? I don't know

803
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 1: if there's I mean, I don't know if they can

804
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 1: catch Carolina, whether they two games behind them, two games

805
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 1: behind Carolina right now. So and I think they've played

806
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: them already one time. You might write about that. I

807
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: believe you're right. Yeah, so you know that that's uh,

808
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: you know, let's see if they can make that ground up.

809
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: But they're very similar the Cowboys as far as they've

810
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 1: had some struggles, that looks like their struggles appeared to

811
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,319
Speaker 1: be more on defense than the Cowboys struggles have been

812
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,719
Speaker 1: on offense. So we'll see. I'll be interesting to see

813
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: how they play the defense, because I think the Cowboys

814
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: were expecting Philadelphia and they did it I thought quite

815
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,800
Speaker 1: a bit single safety high type stuff. And then towards

816
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: as it moved along, they started putting that other safety

817
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 1: back there. Well, they got banged up. They couldn't they

818
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 1: didn't have enough game because they had all their corners,

819
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,879
Speaker 1: got conservative and say, okay, they had to play zone.

820
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 1: Guy's help. They had to play zone. But they were

821
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:58,839
Speaker 1: playing a lot of single safety high and when you're

822
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 1: lining up and you know, you can see it faster

823
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 1: when you're there than on television. It's like old Cooper's

824
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: and single coverage. Here, let's go. You know, you can

825
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: almost call it. Yeah, I'll be interested to see what

826
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 1: Atlanta does. Ye what do you think do we take

827
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 1: a break or how we long are we going to

828

Speaker 1: something like that. Okay, we'll take you the limb fifteen.

831

Speaker 1: The college coach that might be a pro coach with

915
00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 1: Matt Campbell and I Alwa State by the way, has

916
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,320
Speaker 1: an upraortunity they could actually put some where. Did he

917
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:07,040
Speaker 1: come from Toledo, Yeah, Bowlie Green, Toledo. Everywhere he's been,

918
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: he's won. He could pay his dues. I'll try all right.

919
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,440
Speaker 1: Cowboys Falcons last year. I was just looking at the

920
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 1: stats from last year's game and basically who was playing

921
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 1: in the game for the Cowboys. Of course, Zeke was out,

922
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris was your primary running running back. Darren McFadden

923
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: got to carry in the game, and Rod Smith got

924
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,440
Speaker 1: three carries in the game. Morris was eleven for fifty

925
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 1: three yards. Your receivers, you had Witten seven for fifty nine,

926
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 1: Dez four for thirty nine, Rod Smith, colby's Ley, Bryce

927
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 1: Butler one for thirty and Terrence Williams one for nine,

928
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 1: so there were a lot of Keith Smith also had

929
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 1: a catch, so there were a lot of your weapons

930
00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 1: that are no longer on the team or on injured

931
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:03,360
Speaker 1: reserve right now. Catches by Noah Brown, nothing by Noah Brown.

932
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 1: No penalties for Noah Brown either, And um so anyway,

933
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 1: it's a different Cowboy team going in there this year

934
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 1: than what it was last year. Yeah, I think you

935
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: have to, you know, after what you guys said. And

936
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,160
Speaker 1: I'm looking and looking forward to watching the Cleveland game.

937
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 1: The best way to help Dak Prescott is just to

938
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,719
Speaker 1: run the football. If if they're if they're if they

939
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:23,359
Speaker 1: have an inability, if all of a sudden you see

940
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,319
Speaker 1: a trend to them not being able to stop the run.

941
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,440
Speaker 1: You know, if Cleveland just loaded up and said you're

942
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,320
Speaker 1: not good enough to stop us and other teams, I

943
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: need to go back and watch, like Pittsburgh. I think

944
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: they played Pittsburgh in the Carolina I said, you said they.

945
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: I guess when the break you were saying that the

946
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,360
Speaker 1: only one of the first wins they had was Carolina.

947
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 1: Let me just see these teams that ran the ball

948
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 1: or can run the ball, and were they able to

949
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,520
Speaker 1: run the ball, Because if that's the case, you know,

950
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 1: that's a huge huge advantage for the Cowboys right there. Now,

951
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:54,879
Speaker 1: I know they fell behind going into the fourth quarter

952
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 1: last year, did they run the ball? Alfred Morris, I

953
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: have no idea, don't you have it? He ran? He ran? Yeah,

954
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: I think it started off. I think it started off

955
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:07,800
Speaker 1: pretty well for him, and then all of a sudden

956
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 1: they had to start throwing the ball. I want to say, yeah,

957
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 1: I want to see that game was such a infamous game.

958
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:15,320
Speaker 1: I want to say it was like ten seven and

959
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 1: a half time. It was. They were hanging in there

960
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:20,760
Speaker 1: and defensively in that three game stretch that they lost

961
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 1: badly starting with that game. It was the second half

962
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 1: they just broke down and couldn't couldn't get off the field.

963
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 1: No Sean Lee, I think he went out in the

964
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 1: first quarter of the Atlanta game once again. Layton Vanderesh

965
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: and Jalen Smith's a different player than he was last

966
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 1: year by far, and Layton Vanderesh is a big time

967
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 1: young player on this team. He is, He's playing not

968
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,400
Speaker 1: like a rookie. The way he played. It's not not perfect,

969
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 1: but they don't miss Sewan as much as they did

970
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 1: last season. So I think going into this matchup, because

971
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 1: this is they're gonna be challenging the secondary. This is

972
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:59,440
Speaker 1: a really good core, not just Julio Jones, but I

973
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: think they definitely feel better about their linebacking corps now

974
00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 1: than they did this time. If you if, if you

975
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 1: would you they won't do it, But would you, guys

976
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 1: travel Byron Jones with Julio Jones in this game? Now

977
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 1: we've seen the last I mean, I mean, Hulio Jones

978
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 1: had a really had a great game here at at

979
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,279
Speaker 1: and T one time where I mean he just and

980
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 1: but that was Brandon Weeden playing quarterback. Dallas got a

981
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: big lead and then kind of evaporated. What they do

982
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 1: last year with Julio I can't remember. I don't think

983
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 1: they traveled with him. They don't really do that. They

984
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: don't travel. But I mean, this might be one of

985
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 1: those games where you say, okay, you know what, I'm

986
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:35,759
Speaker 1: just gonna try and take him out of the game.

987
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 1: If I can with Byron Jones, that would be your

988
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 1: best option, wouldn't it? But you know who really heard

989
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 1: him last year was that Hooper guy end We had

990
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 1: never heard of Hooper and all of a sudden he's

991
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: and they have to and Steve Sarkissian has to be

992
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:52,359
Speaker 1: excited after seeing zach Ertz get fourteen catches. The other

993
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,400
Speaker 1: day Huli had six for fifty seven. Yeah, so I

994
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 1: was trying to see they only had one sack of

995
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 1: Ryan and he threw the ball thirty times times, although

996
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:03,960
Speaker 1: I was trying to see what his deal was, and

997
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,799
Speaker 1: they got him miss printing here they got Rothlessburger. Yeah. Yeah,

998
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:16,399
Speaker 1: by the way, kind of trails off. I wasn't trying

999
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,839
Speaker 1: to throw anybody under the bus and talking to Nick

1000
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:22,319
Speaker 1: Chubb had the big game last week, but the week

1001
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 1: before Adrian Peterson only had seventeen yards on nine carries

1002
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 1: against them. See, so yeah, there you go the game.

1003
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what I'm saying. I'm looking forward to

1004
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:36,320
Speaker 1: seeing if did they just overpowerment and it might be

1005
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: to the point of what you guys were talking about

1006
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 1: that Washington's offensive line is not clearly running game. Moses

1007
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 1: is not getting done anymore, you know, so we'll see. Yeah.

1008
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 1: I just I think that I think your plan. I

1009
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 1: think that you know, you find find the trend here

1010
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 1: is are they having certain problems, you know, with certain fronts.

1011
00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,279
Speaker 1: I mean they haven't with certain schemes. I mean, is

1012
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 1: it rush inside, rush people trapping them, people toss sweeping them.

1013
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 1: What are you doing to these guys? So I think

1014
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 1: that's where you got to kind of find. Yeah, give

1015
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 1: me those two three four players that you can run,

1016
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: that are running places that you can kind of hang

1017
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 1: your hat on. What you know was you know Cleveland,

1018
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:17,800
Speaker 1: what was their plan of attack? I'm interested to see that,

1019
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,359
Speaker 1: I really really am. Now. The other thing, you look

1020
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,759
Speaker 1: at Atlanta and it's like this where virtually every team

1021
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:26,279
Speaker 1: in the league, you've got several close losses. They lost

1022
00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:29,120
Speaker 1: in overtime to the Saints forty three thirty seven, and

1023
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 1: she ever got the ball back in that one. They

1024
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 1: lost to Cincinnati thirty seven thirty six. Joe Mixon, by

1025
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,959
Speaker 1: the way, did not play for Cincinnati in that game.

1026
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 1: And so you change those two games and they're looking

1027
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:41,759
Speaker 1: at a six and three team instead of a four

1028
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,239
Speaker 1: and five. Yeah, I don't lose to Houston Washington. You're

1029
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 1: looking at exactly here, exactly. I mean, you can do

1030
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,800
Speaker 1: that with about every team. Yeah, in the league. You

1031
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:50,959
Speaker 1: know one thing we haven't had an opportunity to talk about.

1032
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking Cowboys. That happened after our show on Friday.

1033
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: Devi's Bryant goes down for the season, lost for the

1034
00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:01,320
Speaker 1: season with the torn achilles. You hate to see that

1035
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 1: for Dez, yeah, you know, And and we were we

1036
00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:07,360
Speaker 1: kind of talked about that it would be a great

1037
00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,040
Speaker 1: fit for him to go to New Orleans, that they

1038
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:13,239
Speaker 1: could use him like they did Marcus Colston. And I

1039
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 1: think clearly that was going to be the plan. They

1040
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:16,719
Speaker 1: were gonna, you know, have a few things for him

1041
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 1: to do. Work the middle of the field, big body guy,

1042
00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 1: you know, makes some good plays and then in the

1043
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,640
Speaker 1: middle of the field, that's what he's very comfortable doing.

1044
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 1: But uh, you know, these these injuries and stuff. I mean,

1045
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: it's you know that that type of injury. I was

1046
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,399
Speaker 1: worried about him in the hamstring because that had got

1047
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 1: him before, you know, I was worried. And then Nelson,

1048
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,799
Speaker 1: you get the news of achilles, You're going, okay, well

1049
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 1: that's that's pretty much, you know, get over right there.

1050
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 1: That is a great example of why you have training

1051
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 1: camp and why you have when when a guy comes

1052
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 1: we don't know and Saints didn't know how much work

1053
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 1: DEAs had actually done. Okay, des may think he's done

1054
00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:01,840
Speaker 1: enough work to be ready to go right into a practice,

1055
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,840
Speaker 1: and I don't know exactly how it happened in practice,

1056
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,760
Speaker 1: but I assume they put him right into full speed

1057
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:11,560
Speaker 1: drills and I suppose the last play of practice practice.

1058
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,279
Speaker 1: But regardless, that is what you know. The Cowboys get

1059
00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 1: a new player and they will and other teams will

1060
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 1: do the same thing. You don't throw him right in

1061
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 1: and you have to there's value Eachmari Cooper. Yeah, but

1062
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: with a team. I'm talking about when when a player

1063
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 1: has not been in training camp, has not been in

1064
00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 1: the offseason program, has not been with a team throughout

1065
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 1: the season, he's starting over. And basically the Saints needed

1066
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,399
Speaker 1: to go into that with the idea that he needs

1067
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,279
Speaker 1: three weeks of training camp before he can play in

1068
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,320
Speaker 1: a game. You know, well he was he was probably

1069
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 1: not going to play since Cincinnati, but then you got

1070
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 1: the Eagles coming up, you know, the next week. The

1071
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,040
Speaker 1: other thing is is not has not been known and

1072
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,520
Speaker 1: my people tell me that he's not been known as

1073
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 1: a weight room guy. Sure, and um yeah, that's the

1074
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:06,239
Speaker 1: first thing I thought of, was the time he'd missed.

1075
00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,359
Speaker 1: And then you have that kind of injury. It can

1076
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:10,919
Speaker 1: happen to anybody. I mean, it's um, it can happen

1077
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 1: at any time, especially if as you get older. I

1078
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:16,120
Speaker 1: just hope he's able to resume his career somewhere. Um,

1079
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 1: he's he'll be thirty one next year, I think. And

1080
00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 1: that's a tough injury. I mean, that's probably a year

1081
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 1: long recovery process and then you're you're kind of starting

1082
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 1: from scratch again. So I hope, I hope he doesn't

1083
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 1: go out like this and he's able to make a

1084
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:33,120
Speaker 1: full recovery and resume his career. Injury on Friday or Thursday.

1085
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 1: It was Friday, Friday, so that's not even a hard practice. Well,

1086
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:41,319
Speaker 1: we don't know how. I'm sure he's not wearing him

1087
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,720
Speaker 1: out on Friday. Well, and he may have been doing stuff.

1088
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:48,800
Speaker 1: It might have just been an actigue like legs get fatigued,

1089
00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 1: your foot gets fatigued, and right, yeah, that's a tough

1090
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:57,160
Speaker 1: one to come back at that age. Yea. Um So anyway,

1091
00:55:57,160 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 1: and by the way, and Sean Payton says he's he

1092
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 1: wants to give him an opportunity with the Saints next year.

1093
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 1: He said that, yeah, yeah, yeah, so but you hate

1094
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 1: to see that for Dez. Now, I guess one good

1095
00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:12,719
Speaker 1: thing is he does he does It was a not

1096
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,320
Speaker 1: a lot of money his base with six hundred thousand.

1097
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 1: But if he does have that coming, it looked like

1098
00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,320
Speaker 1: it was worked out perfect for him, you know, and

1099
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 1: he was going to be back on the market in

1100
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:26,520
Speaker 1: March and be able to get big money. And now

1101
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be able to get that. Stuff going

1102
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 1: to be an incentive latent deal if he if he

1103
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,600
Speaker 1: decides to even continue playing, we don't know where. Yeah,

1104
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 1: I this this is just gonna be my gut right now,

1105
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:39,920
Speaker 1: since we get paid to do this. I think that

1106
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 1: Dez Bryant is done. I think he's done. I think

1107
00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: that Dez Bryant just you you know you it's a

1108
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,759
Speaker 1: very difficult injury. Like you guys were talking about. He's

1109
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,520
Speaker 1: an older guy. He makes a living with his feet,

1110
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 1: his legs and stuff like that. I mean a younger guy. Yeah,

1111
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:56,960
Speaker 1: you rehab, you try and get back you want. But

1112
00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 1: Dez Bryant's had a remarkable career and and he's also got,

1113
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:03,800
Speaker 1: you know, from hearing from people, he's got other interests

1114
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: outside of football. Now, you know, he's seeing things, some

1115
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 1: business opportunities. I'm not just talking about opening a bar

1116
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:12,440
Speaker 1: getting taken all your money getting taken in a restaurant

1117
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:16,000
Speaker 1: business or some garbage like that. I'm talking about real

1118
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 1: legitimate businesses and stuff like that that he's got ideas for.

1119
00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:22,240
Speaker 1: So I think that we've seen the last of Dez Bryant.

1120
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: I really really do. I just think it's going to

1121
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 1: be very difficult for him to come back to fully

1122
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:34,480
Speaker 1: commit himself to a rehabbing. Think about think about the

1123
00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:37,560
Speaker 1: rehabbing he had to do here. You know. I always

1124
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 1: heard whispers about Dez as well, if he would just

1125
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:41,520
Speaker 1: do this, if he would just do this, if he

1126
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:43,240
Speaker 1: just you know, Dez is one of those guys just

1127
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 1: let me go play, let me just show up and play,

1128
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 1: you know, And so this is one of it be

1129
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 1: one of those things where once it's repaired and all that,

1130
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 1: and he him having a I just don't just don't

1131
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 1: see him being as diligent doing what he needs to

1132
00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 1: do to come back. It just comes down I hope

1133
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:01,880
Speaker 1: he proves me wrong, but that's just me me too.

1134
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,520
Speaker 1: It just comes down to his own motivation. Does he

1135
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 1: really want to go out like this, you know, and

1136
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:09,720
Speaker 1: maybe that spurs him on to make a comeback. The

1137
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: thing that he could take away from this is, in

1138
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:15,120
Speaker 1: my opinion, the best team in the league gave him

1139
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 1: a job. That's where he can he It's not like

1140
00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:21,360
Speaker 1: it's not like the Raiders offered him a job. You know,

1141
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 1: he got a job. I mean, the best team in

1142
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:27,320
Speaker 1: the National Football League, in my opinion, gave him an

1143
00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:29,760
Speaker 1: opportunity to come to work, and he could take that

1144
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,520
Speaker 1: and say, you know what, that's good in my mind,

1145
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 1: you know what, somebody wanted me. But also there's a

1146
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,920
Speaker 1: side of him that I believe that he loves his

1147
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 1: Dallas cowboy team so much that the fact that he,

1148
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 1: you know, he didn't really get a shot with the Saints,

1149
00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 1: probably he's in his heart's probably saying, you know what,

1150
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 1: I'm still I'll always be a cowboy. I didn't have

1151
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:54,680
Speaker 1: to put on a Saint. You know, it sounds crazy,

1152
00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 1: but it's it would have been weird to see him

1153
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:58,480
Speaker 1: in Yeah, it's what I'm saying. I mean, he's got

1154
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,400
Speaker 1: a lot of things that you know, he waited. The

1155
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,320
Speaker 1: right opportunity came, and you know, maybe this is the

1156
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 1: way of saying, you know what, maybe I need to

1157
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:09,920
Speaker 1: move on and do something else. I wonder if you're him,

1158
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 1: would you do the surgery there or would you come

1159
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 1: back and have a doctor that you were familiar with

1160
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:19,240
Speaker 1: do the surgery. Oh, because you don't have to have

1161
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: their guy do it right now, I could come back

1162
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 1: and have doctor Cooper do it. Actually, and he knows Cooper,

1163
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:29,080
Speaker 1: and he knows that he's had successful Achilles repairs. Go

1164
00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 1: ask Greg Greg Allis, Go ask Tyrone Crawford, Go ask

1165
00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 1: Very Church. Yeah, so I wonder what, I wonder what

1166
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 1: he does. I just I just this the sign of

1167
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 1: me that believes that that he's at peace with himself. Now. Well,

1168
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,720
Speaker 1: and you brought up to I mean Greg was thirty

1169
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,720
Speaker 1: ish when he had that, and he made it. He

1170
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,760
Speaker 1: came back, I think made a Pro Bowl. But wide

1171
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 1: receiver different, it's a different position. Stuff. It's gonna be tough. Yeah,

1172
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:56,280
Speaker 1: and you know pass rusher has to push off and

1173
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:58,920
Speaker 1: you know, and you know, what's what's that happens to you?

1174
00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:01,560
Speaker 1: One time? You know you have and you in your

1175
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 1: mind you're always going to have that. Well, has Tyrone

1176
01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,960
Speaker 1: Crawford remember when he went down in training Campbell tore

1177
01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 1: it again? Yeah, that's not good and it wasn't yeah,

1178
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 1: you know, and Kevin Smith when he tore his he

1179
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 1: was not the same. The cerback and Achilles and back

1180
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:20,760
Speaker 1: pedaling is pretty important. Yeah, yeah, I think that running

1181
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 1: back's gonna show up in Pittsburgh. No, I don't sound

1182
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,760
Speaker 1: like it, and you know, and everybody could say, did

1183
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 1: you have a good day? And I don't know if

1184
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,080
Speaker 1: he necessarily has a good day. I don't know if

1185
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,840
Speaker 1: leaving fourteen million dollars on the table, I think is

1186
01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:37,960
Speaker 1: I understand principal and fighting for your beliefs and all that,

1187
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,920
Speaker 1: but he's gonna have to make forty two million dollars

1188
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,240
Speaker 1: basically next year to make up for the money he

1189
01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 1: lost this year. And that's and that's and that's tough. Hey,

1190
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:51,000
Speaker 1: even even a guy out in the Great Pacific Northwest

1191
01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 1: came back, you know, he said, okay, you guys are

1192
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:57,800
Speaker 1: you guys are making me mad here? But what did

1193
01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 1: he do? He showed up and put my accountants more

1194
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 1: yes at me. Yeah. But the older you get, and

1195
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,480
Speaker 1: especially a position he plays where everyone'll say, well he's

1196
01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 1: a year fresher, he's gonna be but yeah, he's also

1197
01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:11,200
Speaker 1: a year or older and they can they can keep

1198
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:14,320
Speaker 1: his rights next year twenty five million dollars. So he's

1199
01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:16,960
Speaker 1: going to get the quarterback tag if that's And I

1200
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,880
Speaker 1: think that's right. I think that's automatically the tag that

1201
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,040
Speaker 1: he gets if they do it three times in a row.

1202
01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:26,200
Speaker 1: If I'm not transition tag, what can what happens there

1203
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:28,720
Speaker 1: with the transition If they'd use the transition tag, then

1204
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,480
Speaker 1: he can go out to another team offer. And I

1205
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:34,120
Speaker 1: think I'm right about that, because there was there was

1206
01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,400
Speaker 1: some talk that they were thinking that it was just

1207
01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:39,960
Speaker 1: going to be the trans transition tag. But I think

1208
01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 1: if they tran if they franchise him a third time,

1209
01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 1: that it's automatically. But does the second franchise count since

1210
01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:50,280
Speaker 1: he didn't sign it? Oh? No, it it does? It does?

1211
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 1: It does? It doesn't count as a crude he doesn't

1212
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 1: count as in a crude season. I'm I'm almost positive

1213
