So we'll talk about it at the 27 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 2: commercial break. 28 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 5: And it's combine. It's a combine, y'all.

It just came up on TV. 32 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 3: I know she's watching which of the workouts over the 33 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 3: next you know, through the weekend are you most looking 34 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 3: forward to? 35 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 4: Number? 36 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 6: One? I think one of the favorite workouts I have 37 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 6: is where they I forgot the name of it, but 38 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 6: when the corner's back pedal and they have to do 39 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 6: insurrection and they have to. 40 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 5: Flip their hips really quickly. 41 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 6: I'm fascinated by it because of something that someone that 42 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 6: has sustained a hip injury, the elasticity that you like 43 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 6: have to maintain the way you have to be able, 44 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 6: like it looks easy sometimes when you see it, but 45 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 6: to flip your hips as quickly as corners. 46 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 5: Do and DB's do is not normal. 47 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 3: I see, that's so interesting. You pick that particular drill 48 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 3: not because of your injury. But I remember my first 49 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 3: one of my first years covering the Cowboys and was 50 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: out at Valley Ranch and Irving and it was one 51 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 3: of the off season mini camps. Back then, you had 52 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 3: multiple mini camps during the off season. But Albert Lewis 53 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 3: is this great cornerback, multi time pro bowler for the 54 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs, and he was visiting and so we 55 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 3: were kind of standing in the end zone watching these 56 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 3: rookies out there. I think it was obviously it had 57 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: to be rookie camp, and he was just observing and 58 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 3: he was standing with the media and he said, watch 59 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 3: this guy, watch the hips. Now watch this guy. Now 60 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: watch this guy. As they were just doing the fundamental drills, 61 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 3: Attorney says, this guy's got it and this guy doesn't. 62 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 3: And it's like and then once he told me what 63 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 3: to look for, it's like, oh my god, I yes, 64 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 3: It's like I never thought of it that way before. 65 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: And just like you're saying, aisha, once you kind of 66 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 3: know what to look for and now every time and 67 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 3: now you hear the scouts with their words and stuff. 68 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 3: And anyway, that was I just remember that as a 69 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 3: pressent thing and just having this pro bowler tell me 70 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,679 Speaker 3: this and it's like, oh my gosh, it like all 71 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 3: came together. 72 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 2: See and this is why Combine week is so important, 73 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: because you get to see who has it, who doesn't, 74 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 2: who could be a good fit. We talked about this 75 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 2: last last week, but now that it's here, it's here. 76 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: So yesterday, on Wednesday they saw defensive tackles, linebackers. Today 77 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: they'll look at defensive backs, tight ends. Tomorrow, on Friday 78 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: they'll look at quarterbacks and running backs. And then on 79 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 2: Saturday it's a line time baby. So Nick, Harris and 80 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 2: Nicole are there on the ground and so we're kind 81 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 2: of seeing some live tweets and updates, So if anything 82 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 2: pops up, we'll mention it on here. But we're really 83 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: going to go over what we saw yesterday a little bit. 84 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: The combine also time to talk to head coaches, front 85 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: office staff. In the Cowboys case, Mike McCarthy did not attend. 86 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 2: Mike Zimmer did not attend. They're staying back here to 87 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: kind of get things going with Zimmer's new hire and 88 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 2: all of that. However, we did hear from Stephen Jones. Ladies, 89 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 2: I want to start with that and then we'll get 90 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 2: into the rest of the combine. Nisha has some notes 91 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: for some of the gentlemen that they talked to yesterday. 92 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 2: But let's start with some Stephen Jones notes. Because I 93 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: listened to the full twenty five minute interview, there was 94 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: a lot to take out of it, So I figured 95 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: there was a lot of discussion for us to have, 96 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: which when we get into the slow period of time, 97 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 2: it's exciting that we have so much to talk about. 98 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 2: All right, let's start with I think one of the 99 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 2: most pressing conversations right now, which is Dak Prescott's potential 100 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: contract extension or not. We don't know what the state 101 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 2: of that is. Stephen was very adamant that he didn't 102 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 2: want to make contact or make any kind of comment 103 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 2: on the contract status. He wanted to be respectful of 104 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 2: any negotiations. And then he was asked if they really 105 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: want to extend Dak Prescott. He said, oh, yes, absolutely. However, 106 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: Michael Gelkin came out with a fantastic article. I don't 107 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: know if you all have read it with the Dallas 108 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: Morning News, and if you haven't and you're listening, please 109 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,559 Speaker 2: go read it. Michael's fantastic journalist, always does very great work. 110 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 2: There was some speculation in there that perhaps there's a 111 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: multiverse and this is the multiverse that they don't extend Dak, 112 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: and he could also be on a one year deal 113 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 2: because guess who else is all of the new hires 114 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: as far as coaches this year as well. 115 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 3: That's very unusual, Yeah, for someone like Zimmer to sign 116 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: a one year deal. 117 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: Right, and Mike McCarthy on the final year of his contract, 118 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: So it seems like there's a lot of ones going 119 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 2: around here. Dak Prescott's not exempt from that being a 120 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 2: possibility either. So I wanted to open up that discussion 121 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 2: here for you ladies. How do you kind of see 122 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: this going? Where do you see this going? Obviously it's 123 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: a possibility, but we were talking about the cap room 124 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: that that kind of contract would take. I mean, if 125 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 2: you're the front office and you've seen kind of what 126 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 2: Dak has been doing the last eight years at this 127 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 2: point in his career, the lack of playoff success, is 128 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 2: that a possibility for you to keep him on a 129 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 2: one year deal? Essentially? 130 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 3: At this here's the thing. Dak holds the cards, and 131 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 3: Dak has bet on himself before and it has paid 132 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 3: off more than handsomely. So to assume that a multi 133 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 3: year extension is going to get done with a huge 134 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 3: bonus that they can pro rate out. You know, for 135 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 3: most players, I would say that would happen, but in 136 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 3: my opinion, it's not a given with Dak. And the 137 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 3: other thing is, to me, the biggest thing in this 138 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 3: past week is the explosive increase in the salary cap. 139 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 3: And so when each team has an additional thirty million 140 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 3: dollars to play with, and we'll talk about some of 141 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 3: those numbers a little later, it gives you more padding 142 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 3: for this year that you could take a bigger cap head. 143 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: How do you feel about it? I can see your face. 144 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 6: We're just it's just a weird place to be in. 145 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 6: I you just don't hear that often that a quarterback 146 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 6: that was in the MVP conversation top ten, those type 147 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 6: of things would be on a one year deal. We 148 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 6: look across the NFL right now, and quarterback is important 149 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 6: out there in the street. It's not only quarterback back 150 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 6: up quarterback too. We're not gonna go there. 151 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 5: So I just think it's dicey. 152 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 3: This is yeah, dicey is a great word. Yeah, you're 153 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 3: playing with fire. 154 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, because this is a big year for some of 155 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 6: these even some of these coaches that are coming in. 156 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 6: I to your point, it doesn't sound normal for something 157 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 6: like this to happen. Maybe we'll get more explanations and 158 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 6: stuff like that, but it's concerning a bit because his 159 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 6: extension could possibly open up we've talked about it could 160 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 6: open up their finances a little bit more. Despite the 161 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 6: fact that they did raise the cap, it's still free. 162 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 6: Agency is somewhere they need to really attack. 163 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 5: They do. 164 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 6: They need to be aggressive this year, and so to me, 165 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 6: I just I think it's very taboo and I just 166 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 6: don't like the way that this feels, if I'm being honest, 167 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 6: and because there's no your foundation is shakey right. 168 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 5: Now, boss and players. 169 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 6: I think players can feel that because it's not just 170 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 6: about It's not just about the quarterback and the coaches. 171 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 6: The rest of the players are affected by this as well, 172 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 6: because not only are they going to learn different schemes, 173 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 6: have to adjust to different coaches, specifically on the defensive 174 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 6: side of the ball, to do all of that and 175 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 6: to maybe know and I get it to people say, 176 00:08:58,640 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 6: it's the business. 177 00:08:59,160 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 5: It's the business. 178 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 6: These are humans, right, This is like not this is 179 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 6: like your boss being like, hey, I'm gonna be here 180 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 6: for another year. 181 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 5: I don't know after that. 182 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 6: But I'm going to teach you how to do this 183 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 6: job how I would do it. 184 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 5: No guarantee that you can develop it. 185 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 3: Then you have to draft to players to suit the now. 186 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 3: Of course, yes, coaches adapt to track the players have, 187 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 3: but still you're going for a certain proto type, right. 188 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: So I also wonder, I guess if draft capital kind 189 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 2: of comes in play in this, because this is kind 190 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 2: of what you saw with both the Gilmour and Cooks 191 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 2: trade last year. If that comes into play at some point, 192 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 2: not so much money when it comes to really diving 193 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: deep and going all in come free agency. And that's 194 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 2: really why it's not a concern that one the cap 195 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 2: space is increased now and two it's not so much 196 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 2: of a cap casualty for Dak's contract, and especially I 197 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 2: guess as a way of having a repercussion for the 198 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 2: embarrassing loss. I mean, it doesn't all fall on Dak. 199 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 2: We've talked about it. I don't think it was all 200 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott's fault, especially with the season he had to 201 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: be able to get the Cowboys in that position. Had 202 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 2: he not played like that, the Cowboys would not have 203 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: been the number two seed in the NFC. Period. But 204 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, it kind of just 205 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 2: seems like his success is being measured by playoffs and 206 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 2: playoff success, which has not been there. And when there's 207 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 2: such an embarrassing loss, somebody has to take the hit. 208 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: And I think that's Mike McCarthy not getting an extension himself. 209 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 2: I think that's Dak Prescott potentially having just one more 210 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: year on his deal. Somebody has to take the. 211 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 3: Fall and people not being sad that Dan Quinn is gone, 212 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 3: which is very unfair for Dan for what he did 213 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 3: right in his time here. He's a fall guy for 214 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 3: the defense which has been so good under him, but 215 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 3: played poorly and gave up too many explosive plays. Here's 216 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 3: the thing, all you. 217 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: Dak haters, talk to him, Christy, tell him be careful. 218 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 3: Would you ask why you asked you? 219 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 6: Because I'm looking at the I'm looking at some of 220 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 6: these these quarterbacks even in this draft, honey, honey, like 221 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 6: having a good quarterback in this league right now, even 222 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 6: if they even despite what happened in the playoffs, and 223 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 6: I'm gonna get there. 224 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 5: Is valuable now. 225 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 6: Like I just I don't I don't understand why so 226 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 6: many people think it's easy to quickly move on. 227 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, because they have short memories. They don't remember the 228 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 3: quarterback wilderness we were in after Troy and they draft 229 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 3: Quincy and then he flames out and is let go, 230 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 3: and you know, you've got the Drew Hinson's and Chad 231 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: Hutchinson's of the world, and trust me, it was not 232 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 3: a good time. 233 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 234 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 2: Also, lightning, I guess kind of can strike twice in 235 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: the same place. When it did with Tony Romo and Dak. 236 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 3: Presley, the Cowboys lucked into those. 237 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 2: Two were not supposed to be starting quarterbacks in the NFL. Exactly, 238 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 2: You're not going to have that happen again. And if 239 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 2: you do, I want to know what magic this franchise 240 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 2: has to find these quarterbacks. Jack Prescott in the Tony 241 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 2: Romo era fell into their lap of Thank god they 242 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 2: had a good quarterback that was ready to take that 243 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: starting position, because then what would have happened. What would 244 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 2: have happened? Who would have been the starting quarterback? 245 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 5: It was supposed to be killing. 246 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, we got his ankle broke, so it was right, 247 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 2: but he got hurt and then Dak was not ever 248 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 2: supposed to get that opportunity behind Kellen and so my 249 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 2: thing is, yeah, be careful what you wish for it's 250 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 2: and everybody, let's get into this conversation because everybody kind 251 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 2: of goes back to Trey Lance being here now, having 252 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 2: a year under his belt to work and kind of 253 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 2: learn the language and the scheme, the playbook here in Dallas. 254 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 2: What did you guys see from trade, because there was 255 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 2: a lot of speculation last year with the quick trade 256 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 2: and how quick Jerry was to kind of grab him 257 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 2: from San Francisco that that could be I guess the 258 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 2: quarterback in training at some point. And yes, we do 259 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: have to kind of discuss that Dak is getting older. 260 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 2: He's getting to that point in his career where maybe 261 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 2: it is time to start thinking ahead of the future. 262 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean your immediate future. Both things can 263 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 2: be true where you have your franchise quarterback and you 264 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 2: start thinking ahead for who takes his spot when his 265 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 2: time is done here in the next however many years 266 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 2: that he has left, both things can both be true. 267 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 2: But what did you guys see out of Trey Lance 268 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 2: this season where we did get to see some of 269 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 2: him at practice or whispers around the building, whatever have you. 270 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 2: I just don't understand why people think immediately that he 271 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 2: would be the answer, considering you know what we saw 272 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 2: in practice, and that's no shame to him. 273 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I'll tell you what I saw of Trey Lance, 274 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 3: and that was only when he would come out in 275 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 3: pregame warmups with Scott Tolzen, the quarterbacks coach, and then 276 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 3: some of the either practice squad or inactive wide receivers 277 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 3: and would throw to them and have a session early 278 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 3: in pregame. Okay, and then I know that he did 279 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 3: a lot more scout team work than most third team 280 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 3: quarterbacks get. The way it works in the NFL is 281 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 3: the starter gets the vast, fast, vast, fast, vast vast 282 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 3: majority of snaps in practice. A backup quarterback if he 283 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 3: gets ten snaps in a week in his own team's offense, 284 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 3: that's a lot because the backup number two, backup runs 285 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 3: the scout team so Cooper Rush runs in previous years, 286 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 3: like all of scout team work or the vast, fast, 287 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 3: vast majority, Trey Lance got quite a bit of scout 288 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: team work, not ahead of Cooper Rush, but along with 289 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 3: Cooper Rush, so he did get more work than most 290 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 3: third teamers in terms of practice, the team portion and 291 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 3: not just like after practice when the veterans have gone inside. 292 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 2: And I will say to you, asking around the locker room, 293 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: it still seemed that Cooper Rush was still getting those 294 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 2: second snaps and it was never Trey Lance getting those 295 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: snaps ahead of Cooper. 296 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 4: Right. 297 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, for the backup stuff, it's Cooper. But in terms 298 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 3: of scout team, Trey got a bit. But yeah, Trey 299 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 3: Lance did not jump Cooper Rush this past year exactly 300 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: with Dak. If something happened with Dak, it was going 301 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 3: to be Cooper. 302 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 2: Right. 303 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 6: If you're betting on your success from like even from 304 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 6: some of the injuries he's dealt with and things like that, it's. 305 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 5: Not my business. I mean, it is our business, but 306 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 5: it's not my business. 307 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 6: Like I don't know what is going on. You want 308 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 6: to help your quarterback, like I do. Think it's important 309 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 6: to address the run game, yes, because and not addressing 310 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 6: the game like the lack of run game efficiency has 311 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 6: been was very evident this year. Other teams know that, Man, 312 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 6: I'm sorry, Like you could see it on film plenty 313 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 6: of times that yeah, they're like, oh, they lined up 314 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 6: in twenty one personnel. 315 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 5: We don't care. 316 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 6: We know they can't run the ball successfully right now 317 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 6: puts a lot of pressure in your quarterback. 318 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 5: And that's what happened in the playoff game also too. 319 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 6: Not only could you not stop the run, you couldn't 320 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 6: run so each. 321 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 3: You were so far behind. 322 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 6: Yes, you had to pass, absolutely, But even when that 323 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 6: game wasn't super out of hand, still they were down 324 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 6: two scores, they had time. You could have ran the 325 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 6: ball and found some i don't know, some some physicality 326 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 6: and some momentum with the run game, and it just 327 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 6: was never there. And that's been a problem in quite 328 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 6: a few of these games. And even when I think 329 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 6: back to San fran the year before, it was like, listen, 330 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 6: hear me out, I understand, Tony, Tony Poller got injured. 331 00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 5: They shouldn't shut down your whole running game operation. 332 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 2: Yep. 333 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 6: It's been a problem for a while, and it manifested 334 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 6: in these playoff games as well. But we saw it 335 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 6: midway almost halfway through the season, and it was a 336 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 6: problem all season. 337 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 5: Help your quarterback out. 338 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 6: If we're gonna evaluate him, we need to evaluate him 339 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 6: in totality, because hey, listen, even that big dog up 340 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 6: in case but Chaco breaking some of those big runs 341 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 6: and the Super Bowl helped him. 342 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 5: Out and kept that defense. 343 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 6: Honest, yep, So listen, I'm not I'm off my soapbox, 344 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 6: but I'm at I'm definitely at a point where I'm like, y'all. 345 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: Keep playing with fire. 346 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 5: It's gonna be real. 347 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 6: It's gonna be right, tumble weeds and cars, the cowardly 348 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 6: dog looking out here, it's gonna be sad every day. 349 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: Well, before we go to our next break, I want 350 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 2: to get to some other points that that Stephen had, 351 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 2: because there was also some reports that came out speaking 352 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 2: of the run game that it's likely that both Tony 353 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 2: Pollard and Rico Dabble are about to hit the market 354 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 2: for free agency. So regardless, it kind of just seems 355 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: like the running back room will look very, very different 356 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 2: this offseason. So just want to say that. A couple 357 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 2: of other keynotes that we heard from Stephen. He was 358 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 2: asked about Leyton vander esh and kind of that whole situation. 359 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 2: He said he wants to let late and speak on 360 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 2: his decision going forward, and that decision obviously being whether 361 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 2: he continues to play in the NFL or not. So 362 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: we don't know officially anything on that, but I thought 363 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 2: that was an interesting way for Stephen to answer that question. 364 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 2: He was asked about Demarvi and overshown in Trayvon Diggs 365 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 2: their recovery process. He said, it's probably more realistic. You 366 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 2: see them participating in training camp rather than OTAs he said, quote, 367 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 2: they're coming along. Great, that's positive news. How far that's 368 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 2: positive news? 369 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 5: How far is Aco come? 370 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 3: It's amazing. 371 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, aye, I remember being ki. 372 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 5: Yes, it was when I was a kid. 373 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 2: Yep, you heard Aco immediately his career is over. 374 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 6: Yes, And it's it's just remarkable to see them even 375 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 6: to see like them walking on. 376 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,440 Speaker 5: The sidelines and stuff as quickly as they were. 377 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,959 Speaker 2: I was like, we see them. Here's sometime. I like, right, 378 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 2: I love Yeah, what's going on here? 379 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,719 Speaker 6: Like so sorry, I was just no, no, no, it's fantastic 380 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 6: that it is. 381 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 2: And you know, he talked about how early it happened, 382 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 2: both injuries happened to where they'll have the time to 383 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 2: come back realistically and participate in more team drills come 384 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 2: training camp, which is great to hear, considering you've seen 385 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 2: the kind of impact it can have on a player 386 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 2: to not have training camp time. Yes, so there's that. 387 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 2: He talked about a couple more free agents Stefon Gilmour. 388 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: He I thought this response was interesting. He said, they 389 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 2: will be discussing things and how the overall picture looks 390 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 2: to who they'll bring back. He said, quote, we were 391 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: very pleased with what he did for this team, and 392 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 2: I have nothing but respect for him. It sounds okay, 393 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 2: but let's compare it to what he said about Tyrone Smith. 394 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 2: He said. He talked about how he gave mich McCarthy 395 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 2: a lot of credit for how Mike was scheduling out 396 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 2: Tyrone's practice schedule and the veteran rest days. All of that. 397 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 2: He said, We'll certainly be sitting down with him and 398 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 2: look at what it and looking at what it looks 399 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 2: like for him to stay here. Two very different responses 400 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 2: if you're comparing what he said about Stefan and Tyron. 401 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 2: So that was interesting. Keeping it on the O line, 402 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 2: he talked about keeping Tyler Smith at left guard. This 403 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 2: was a fun one, he said, remains to be seen. 404 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 2: Starting to feel a lot like Larry Allen all over again. 405 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 2: His versatility brings options to the team. Essentially, we can 406 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 2: get into that after the break. A couple more things 407 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 2: I want to get into as well. He was asked 408 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 2: about the culture. There's a culture problem with this team. 409 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 2: He said he doesn't worry about the culture. They all 410 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 2: feel good about it, but they always want to be better, 411 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 2: especially if they're not winning the super Bowl. On the 412 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 2: other end of the break, we'll have a SoundBite about this, 413 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 2: but he also talked about Jerry's all in comments. So 414 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 2: let's go ahead and take that break. We'll hear that 415 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 2: SoundBite from Stephen. We'll get into that discussion. Ayisha has 416 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 2: some notes on some of the guys that the Cowboys 417 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 2: talk to, whether it be a formal or informal interview.

But uh, uh, you know, you you know, certainly, Uh, 455 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 4: you know, we've got a great I think a great 456 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 4: team put together. Uh you know, I think you know, 457 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 4: the last three years, we won a lot of football games, 458 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 4: I think thirty six and you know, certainly where we 459 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 4: have to improve is the postseason. You know, we're going 460 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 4: to get the right kind of guys who step up 461 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 4: and make big plays in the postseason. And uh, it's 462 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 4: been a challenge in terms of our success there, and 463 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,679 Speaker 4: that's where we have to improve. Nie. 464 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 2: All right, my question to you ladies is when we 465 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 2: heard Jerry talking about going all in, was that really 466 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: anything new? 467 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 5: Oh? 468 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 3: What else is he supposed to say? 469 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 2: Right? 470 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's yeah, it's not a surprise at all. Brand 471 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 3: But our definition of all in and the Jones definition 472 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 3: of all in may be a little bit different. I 473 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 3: think most people when you hear all in, casual fans 474 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 3: are ones that don't pay super close attention, are going 475 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 3: to think they're going to throw all that money in 476 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 3: at free agency. And while the cap has increased markedly 477 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 3: thirteen percent the season, over thirty million dollars, Well, you 478 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 3: have big contracts and a quarterback that counts over fifty 479 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 3: nine million against it. So even if they wanted to 480 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 3: throw a bunch of money in free agency at linebacker, 481 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 3: running back, or offensive line or some of these areas 482 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 3: that fans are concerned about that we're all concerned about, 483 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 3: you know, it's not feasible that you can hit all 484 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 3: of those areas. I don't think, And I think that 485 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 3: it's going to be more tactical in going with more 486 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 3: mid priced free agents. And the other thing is, you know, 487 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 3: you have people like dan Quinn leaving and they're going 488 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 3: to poach some of these free agents away. It's going 489 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 3: to be harder to resign. You don't think dan Quinn 490 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 3: would like to have Stefan Gilmour up in Washington with 491 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 3: the yeah, with the first round pick that they had 492 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 3: as a rookie, that cornerback. He would be a great 493 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 3: mentor to him. So there are a lot of moving 494 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 3: parts in this. 495 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 5: Yeah. 496 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 6: For me, As far as the culture questions and some 497 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:31,239 Speaker 6: of those things, I don't know. I wish that they 498 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 6: could see some of the other side of things how 499 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 6: we look at things at times, because I do think 500 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 6: that there were some I just think there's some clear 501 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 6: cut issues with the weight and the heaviness and all 502 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 6: the media and so much like. I do think that 503 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 6: it is starting to affect this team and the weight 504 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 6: of being having to be the team that pulls, you know, 505 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 6: the Cowboys as an organization out of this slump of 506 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 6: not having a championship. 507 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 1: It. 508 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 6: I believe it is starting to weigh on some of 509 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 6: these players, and I think until you acknowledge that, it's 510 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 6: going to be a problem because I do think in 511 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 6: order to the type of coach like, the type of 512 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 6: voices that you have to have in. 513 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 5: A room like this is unique to me. 514 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 6: I don't believe that you can coach this team how 515 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 6: you coach any other team in the NFL. 516 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 3: Well, you know, Michael Carthy said that at the start 517 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,360 Speaker 3: of the players and one of the things he talked 518 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 3: about in one of the press conferences, it was a 519 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 3: similar question, and how do you handle that is that 520 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,959 Speaker 3: I've told the team that they're not responsible for the 521 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: things that came before them in terms of you know, 522 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: at that what twenty eight years of not having a 523 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,959 Speaker 3: Super Bowl or a return to the NFC Championship game. So, 524 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 3: but we talked about it here on this podcast. They 525 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 3: may not be responsible, but they do feel the weight 526 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 3: of it. Maybe not when they first come in, in 527 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 3: the first couple of years. 528 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 2: But after a while, yeah, it gets taxing. They get 529 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 2: over and over. 530 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 5: You know how I know it's taxing because. 531 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 2: It's aggravated for us. 532 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 5: I can't imagine. 533 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 9: I mean, yeah, yeah, I know Christy's but Christy wants 534 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,880 Speaker 9: a Super Bowl parade people, even. 535 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 6: In regard to the Stefan Gilmore and some of those guys, 536 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 6: when you think about it, it goes back to the 537 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 6: coaching thing as well. Is like Stephan Gilmour, who's a 538 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 6: little later in age. I don't know if he from 539 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 6: what he showed this past year, maybe he wants a 540 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 6: two year ado, maybe he wants something longer, because this 541 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 6: might be he's thirty three and it was remarkable to 542 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 6: see him played this year. But maybe he does want 543 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 6: something with a tad bit of longevity because he understands 544 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 6: what's next for him. 545 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 5: So I just. 546 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 6: This is this, This is truly, y'all, this is an 547 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 6: odd place to be in. It feels very I feel 548 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 6: very uneasy about what is happening right now, and how 549 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 6: could is it possible for them to go out and draft, 550 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,199 Speaker 6: go out and free agency and things kind of you know, 551 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:12,400 Speaker 6: but this doesn't feel together right now. There doesn't feel 552 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 6: And again, the guys might be close in the locker 553 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 6: room and everything fine, but I'm talking about marrying the 554 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 6: upstairs folks to these folks. It just feels weird right now, 555 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 6: and I don't like the energy. 556 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 2: Wait about y'all, It feels very make or break instead 557 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 2: of all in. That's kind of how I would say, 558 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 2: is this this. 559 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 3: Feels very because because the one your stat and I 560 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 3: think staff. 561 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 2: Right, and I think that's why it feels uneasy, is 562 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 2: because you haven't had a circumstance like this from recent 563 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 2: history that I can remember, where you had so many 564 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 2: people on a one year deal that's a make or break, 565 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: that's a prove it season, that's not necessarily that's hard 566 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 2: to maneuver because there's little room for error with those 567 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 2: kind of contracts, and that goes for anybody that goes 568 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 2: for your head coach, that goes for your DC. I mean, 569 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 2: and say they get to the playoffs again next season, 570 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 2: same thing happens. And then what you're talking at that point, 571 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 2: say they don't decide to extend Dak Prescott, then what 572 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 2: you have to find a new head coach, a new DC, 573 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 2: a new pretty much every coaching staff, pretty much on 574 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 2: the defensive side, a new franchise quarterback. Yeah, that's I 575 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 2: don't even want to think about that. I'm just saying that. 576 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: That's why I feel uneasy. You said it perfectly uneasy. 577 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 2: It's just I don't like this now. 578 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 3: I think with Dak, and I think the more obvious 579 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 3: option is doing those two voidable years right because sure 580 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 3: you would, you know, have to pay more, you know, 581 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 3: if it could cost you against the cap in those 582 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 3: couple of years, but it would lessen the cap this year. 583 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 3: Because if it's all in what everybody wants, all right, 584 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 3: all in, I want to go back to that phrase, 585 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 3: But if it's make or break, because it's a one 586 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 3: year deal, you have to put all your chips in 587 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 3: on the table, right, and so you don't want to 588 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:17,959 Speaker 3: be playing with a shorthand, right, and I don't know 589 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 3: you need And the point of that is, if you've 590 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 3: got one year, then you want them to go out 591 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 3: in free agency and bring you all the talent that 592 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 3: they can, because if it's your last year, I need 593 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 3: to go out the way I want to go out 594 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 3: with the players I want and not be you know, 595 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 3: saving money for the future. 596 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 2: Absolutely, while we put a little bow on that conversation, 597 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 2: I still want to go through some of the guys 598 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:48,959 Speaker 2: that the Cowboys had some formal and informal with at 599 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 2: the combine.

You know, we 618 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 6: just get on the mic and talk. But like, no, 619 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 6: like they're finding they're sifting through these teams that maybe 620 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 6: you don't even think about. 621 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 5: And some of these players' names came up. One one 622 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 5: that stood out to me and. 623 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 6: Trice night linebacker U tip he's six two to thirty five. Again, 624 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 6: I actually wrote down this is stuff that makes me 625 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 6: excited because he even said yesterday in his interview, he 626 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 6: was like, the biggest advice, best advice that he's gotten, 627 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 6: is you know, stay at the school that you're at, 628 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 6: Like it's a lot of guys transferring and trying to 629 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 6: look for that. And he just was like, the tape 630 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 6: is there, people will find you, ye And to me, 631 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 6: I think that's that him even having you know, any 632 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 6: level of an interview with the Cowboys kind of shows 633 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 6: that that people are still gonna find your tape. 634 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 5: I looked at him. He's a six year player, so 635 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 5: he a little long in the tooth. 636 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 6: He plays some football, But at this point I don't 637 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 6: dislike that a whole bunch with linebacker because I do 638 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 6: think some of these guys that have played longer there, 639 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 6: they've seen more. It slows down for them, some of them. 640 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 6: So anyway, I'll tell you about the player a little bit. 641 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 6: He plays with his eyes a lot, so he's constantly 642 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 6: and I think it is a gift and a curse 643 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 6: a little bit with him because he'll see it and 644 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 6: there's times where I just want him to go drive 645 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 6: and get it. However, he is a little feisty gallo 646 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 6: chip on his shoulder playing down there and al faso, 647 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 6: he's bursty as a blitzer. He has sidelined to sideline 648 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 6: speed in his reaction times. 649 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 5: It's pretty good. 650 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 6: I like some of the things I saw from him 651 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 6: and coverage from his own perspective. 652 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 5: He has the ability to do it. 653 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 6: He can take undisciplined angles at time, but you know, listen, 654 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 6: that's something to improve upon from a linebacker. And then 655 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 6: also to like I said, he also plays with his hands, 656 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 6: and I think he could get stronger when he disengages. 657 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 5: But this is a fiery player. 658 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 6: He has fluid, fluid body movement, a lot of body control. 659 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 5: He has ability. 660 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 6: And when you see him, it's funny too, because it's 661 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 6: like when you go to the gym.

I believe his 705 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 6: name is yabbi Oki and he is from He's a 706 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 6: d n He played in Charlotte. 707 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 5: That's where he is. That's where he's being drafted out of. 708 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,439 Speaker 6: However, before he was at Charlotte, he spent some time 709 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 6: at Michigan. Before he was at Michigan, he spent some 710 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 6: time at Tennessee. I think it's I'm sorry, Tennessee. It's 711 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 6: not Tennessee Tech Tennessee. Mart Yes, Tennessee Martin. I can't 712 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 6: remind bababe. Before that, he spent some time at Houston. 713 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 6: Before that, he started and was drafted to Alabama. This 714 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,719 Speaker 6: gentleman played football late. He didn't start playing into his 715 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:20,760 Speaker 6: junior year of high school. He's had some behavioral things 716 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,320 Speaker 6: and some issues that have taken him off the field, 717 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 6: But in the last two years he's really focused his 718 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,240 Speaker 6: life back to Christ. He's he's really kind of buckled 719 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 6: down and in his interviews I watched yesterday, he was 720 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 6: just talking about how it improved he's he's been in 721 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 6: and some of the people that are around him that 722 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 6: you can. I've read some articles about our saying the 723 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,720 Speaker 6: same things about him as that, and don't get it twisted. 724 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 6: When he left Michigan, they were hurt. The I searched, 725 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 6: and a lot of the fans and a lot of 726 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 6: the people there were really looking forward to him. 727 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 8: Dog. 728 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 6: This is a this, This guy has the potential to 729 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 6: be a real dominant d N in this league. 730 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 5: He's sixty three two fifty three, so he has great size, 731 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 5: great weight. 732 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 6: He rushes with speed to power. He's edgy, he has 733 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 6: a motor. The temperament again is something that I think 734 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 6: he's improving upon. But if he can figure out how 735 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 6: to ride that fence, he's active in the run game. 736 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 5: He's not afraid to come downhill. He's edgy. 737 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 6: He is very much so like every play, he's one 738 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 6: hundred percent almost And the pursuit is there, the backside 739 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 6: pursuit is there. I said, holy wild card, because you 740 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,399 Speaker 6: look at a guy like this and this is this again, 741 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 6: is why scouting excites me, because there are times that 742 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 6: you look at a guy like this and you look 743 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 6: at his resume and a lot of people would be like, 744 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:40,439 Speaker 6: I'm not talking to this kid. 745 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 5: He clearly doesn't have stability. 746 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 6: But at the same time, you look at this, you 747 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 6: turn on that tape, you can't ignore it. So you 748 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 6: if you fish a little bit, you want to see 749 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,400 Speaker 6: if he's improved. And so anyway, I'm still looking at 750 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 6: film on him. It is difficult to find, you know, 751 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 6: concrete film from this past year. However, looking at him 752 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 6: at Michigan, looking some of the past rush ability of 753 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 6: the hand fighting, how he gets to the ball. 754 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 5: He has a nose for the ball, y'all. I mean, 755 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 5: he's he stands out. He stands out on film. So 756 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 5: I'm just wondering how the interview. 757 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 6: Process is gonna go from him, how he's gonna test. 758 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,280 Speaker 6: All that stuff's gonna matter. But I'm sure the character 759 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 6: stuff is the biggest thing that people are trying to 760 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 6: make sure it has been improved in the last couple 761 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 6: of years. 762 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 5: Outside of that, this guy has a lot of upside 763 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 5: if he's in the right place. 764 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 3: Well, but those those kinds of backgrounds where there are 765 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 3: questions about that, if there are, that can make you 766 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 3: slide in the draft, But can I yeah, make you 767 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 3: a steal yep. If you're the team that decides to 768 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 3: invest in potential, you see him as a mid to 769 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 3: late now or more early day three. 770 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 6: His ability ability wise, this to me is no later 771 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 6: than a third round pill maybe late their round. Okay, 772 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 6: with what's happening with his instability and stuff again, people 773 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 6: are gonna worry. 774 00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 5: Like can I fit him into this scheme? Can I 775 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 5: fit him into this scheme? 776 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 6: Temperament everything right, So it's like, Okay, I think he 777 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 6: could slide to. I think he could definitely slide to 778 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 6: like fifth round and things like that because of the 779 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 6: character stuff. 780 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 5: But if he tests well. 781 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's make or break for him this weekend.

So 836 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 3: that thirteen point six percent increase from one year to 837 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:38,720 Speaker 3: the next is by far the largest in NFL history. 838 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,879 Speaker 3: The NFL started with the salary cap in nineteen ninety four, 839 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 3: and so it usually increases about ten maybe twelve million 840 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 3: a year, that's the range. So to go up by 841 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 3: thirty million in a year, now that I know that, 842 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 3: it's you know, everybody gets the same amount. There's a 843 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,959 Speaker 3: pie and you take it and you divide it into 844 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 3: thirty two slices, so everybody gets the same same slice 845 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,080 Speaker 3: of same piece, you know, size of the slice of 846 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 3: kind of pie. 847 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 5: Ooh, what's your favorite pumpkin? 848 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 3: Oh? 849 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 2: Oh, okay, I'm gonna get a lot of hate. 850 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 5: My favorite past chess pie. 851 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,280 Speaker 3: I love chess pie.

We 879 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 2: don't have to get into it. I'm just saying, not 880 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 2: a coincidence. 881 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 3: And yet for all the Chiefs have accomplished they're like 882 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 3: near the bottom of the nfl PA player poll. 883 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,720 Speaker 2: Oh, here we go, and that is it's crazy. Speaking 884 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 2: of that real quick, we have a couple of minutes left, 885 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:01,320 Speaker 2: Let's go down the NFLPA port card for the Cowboys. 886 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 2: Treatment of families got an A minus that's fourth in 887 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 2: the league compared to the other teams. Food Cafteriarry got 888 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 2: to B that's eleventh. Nutritionists slash dietitian got to be 889 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:16,320 Speaker 2: also ranking eleventh.

Team travel I think this one's 895 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,360 Speaker 2: a little interesting too, C minus ranking twenty second in 896 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 2: the league. Head coach a ninth in the league. Ownership 897 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 2: B nineteenth in the league. Of all of that, obviously 898 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 2: there's some eyes and there's some lows.

You only have to have three 904 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 3: trainers by rule of the NFL collective bargaining. The Cowboys 905 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 3: have four and then two assistants like graduate assistants and so. 906 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 3: But still, when you have ninety players in the off 907 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,399 Speaker 3: season and through training camp, and when you have it's 908 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 3: not fifty three players plus sixteen on a practice squad 909 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 3: and guys on ir and things like that, you know, 910 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 3: there's only so much time in a day. So you 911 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 3: have terrific. Yeah, Britt Brown, director of rehab, best in 912 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 3: the business, but he can only be in one place 913 00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 3: at one time. And Jim and Ranson and the guys 914 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 3: do a wonderful job. But when you play a violent 915 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 3: sport and you have so many guys that get dinged 916 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 3: up and you have to come in so early for 917 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 3: your treatment. So it's I don't it's not an indictment 918 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 3: on the ability of the training staff that we have. 919 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 3: It's just sounds like they would just like to have. 920 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 5: More. 921 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:15,959 Speaker 3: Well, they have access, but just maybe increase the number 922 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:16,440 Speaker 3: of staff. 923 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I don't have much to add, but 924 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 6: I mean, did they say that the training equipment. 925 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,879 Speaker 2: Was Yeah, it says Michael Gilkin tweeted this, The major 926 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 2: issue in Dallas, based on responses, is centered around the 927 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,719 Speaker 2: training room. The players feel that they're very understaffed in 928 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 2: this department. It's difficult to get the necessary preparation treatment 929 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 2: to perform their best. Sixty two percent of the players 930 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 2: feel like they get an inadequate amount of one on 931 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 2: one time treatment treatment time, which is what Christy said. 932 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 2: The other issue mentioned players feel the training room lacks 933 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 2: basic equipment that you would expect to be standard in 934 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,880 Speaker 2: any other training facility, which I thought was interesting. 935 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 5: I find it interesting because where are we? 936 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:59,879 Speaker 3: Yep, sorry, right, yeah, But one thing about the trap 937 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 3: is we had a really brutal travel schedule this year 938 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 3: with the overnight games and the late nights and especially 939 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,879 Speaker 3: the early in the season time Oh my gosh, So 940 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 3: the Cowboys, you know, they always play the maximum amount 941 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 3: of primetime games because there's such a draw for the network, 942 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 3: but goly, the way that it was road trips and 943 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,319 Speaker 3: around the holidays, you know, Christmas Eve and things like 944 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:31,879 Speaker 3: that that it was. It was particularly tough this year, 945 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 3: I thought, And so I think that part of that 946 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 3: with the travel, may be a reflection on so many 947 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 3: of the overnight coming back home, and that's not up 948 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 3: to the team, you know, yeah, that's that's being a 949 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 3: victim of your own circumstances. Popularity. 950 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 2: Well, there you go.
