Mick Shots: Monday Regrets

the deal? Oh no, you've been up. I can't play that song. Not play that song? Thank you Chris for now we can't play. That's the song for today, colle. What happen is for today? That is the theme for today. What happened? I am pissed? Oh oh yeah, here we go. Wall shots here pretty much the same as yours. Pretty much the same as yours. We're gonna have some situational awareness though on this show five minutes. Okay, there is some situational awareness that didn't happen last night that will

be corrected in team meetings. And I think one of the biggest things is it is a it's still very early in this season, that's right. And at the end of the night last night, I'm sitting there thinking the starting quarterback is coming back. Um, I can vouge for that. Because I stood on the sideline during his twenty twenty five minute throwing session and I was thinking, I'm sure glad I'm not out there one. They're trying to catch his passes bare hands because he is spinning the ball

and accurately, by the way I was. I didn't count, but I saw two passes he threw over receiver's head. That was it. The ball was not hitting the ground, and he was throwing it with as he said. When I talked to him when he walked off, did you shake his hand? No, I didn't. I looked at it, though, and he showed me the athletic tape he had on his hand that he was throwing with and he was taking snaps from center. By the way, okay, these are these are things that we needed to see you before

we approved him heading back out into combat. And he said if he couldn't throw with his normal velocity, he wouldn't have been throwing. So he was firing the ball he took about I want to say, ten snaps from center from the ten yard line and shotgun and throwing fades and back shoulders. He's hitting almost I think he missed one that was it. Well, you know those are hard throws. They just say what they want about Dak Prescott,

but his fade routes. Uh well, Marie Cooper, Michael Gallup baking the test to his ability to throw the faith and he hadn't lost the ability, and uh he said. I told him, I said, so did you pass inspection? He goes, well, who's inspecting? And I said, well, I was, and he goes, I was an A, but I need to get to an A plus. Yeah, And so I

would have met. And McCarthy said after the game that you know, they've got a plan for him come Thursday, because they're not prat He's given them Wednesday, basically giving them a couple of days off it you know what

and what I forgot. And when I was doing one of those uh you know, preseason preview shows, somebody asked me about the hard part in the schedule, and I said, early in the season, they've got to play three or four games on the road, and they've got to go coast to coast to coast, three games on the coast, and yeah, it proved very difficult this night, getting off to that slow start and just uncharacteristically turning the ball over the defense, giving up more touchdowns in a quarter

almost than in any game they had during the season. They gave up four with Cooper Rush starting, they gave up three in that first quarter. Before you go on, let's add we went back to the same m O. Too many penalties in situations and it wasn't just the amount, it was when they happened, right, You can't have that happened during the comeback. You can't have that happen when trying to keep ourselves in within southing distance of the leader. Right, And we start with that here, just saying on your

point about where they are basically in their season. And now you've gotten through the first six games and five of those starts with your backup quarterback went four and

one in those games. The other part of it that they are through right now when you look when you compare Dallas and Philadelphia and the schedule, because there are three games on the schedule where because Dallas finished in first place last year, they've got a tougher schedule than Philadelphia, and right now, the Cowboys are through those three games, those three games for Dallas, Tampa Bay which was a loss, Cincinnati, which was a win, and at the Rams, which was

a win. Okay, so you're talking about the Super Bowl champion from two years ago, the Super Bowl champion from last year, and the Super Bowl runner up from last year. And so the Cowboys went two and one during that stretch. All right, you look ahead to Philadelphia and here are their three games that they play that the Cowboys don't play, and one was against Arizona, which was a win last week, and then they've got Pittsburgh and New Orleans is the

other one. And so there's the difference. And they haven't played Pittsburgh and New Orleans yet. But anyway, but unfortunately it's Pittsburgh, Houston, Washington, the Colts, Packers, but the Cowboys are playing those other team. But these are the teams, these are the teams that the Cowboys aren't playing, the Eagles are playing whatever. So what I'm getting at is the Cowboys are through that tougher portion of their schedule and they had to play and they won two of

those games with a backup quarterback. Now, when you look ahead to the Cowboys schedule for the next four weeks, they're playing the NFC North, it's all NFC North, it's Detroit, it's Chicago, it's Green Bay, it's Minnesota, back to back. They got a Thanksgiving game against the Giants, and then basically it's all AFC South. All the teams in the

division are playing that. So it's really simplified what the Cowboys need to do, and you almost put it in quadrants of the season of the rest of the way. Now to the penalties, and we start with the first major penalty in this game. And when I talk about situational awareness, you have to have better situational awareness than what the Cowboys did on the last play of the first quarter, when it was obvious that the Eagles were

not running a play. The clock is ticking down and all they're trying to do is draw you off side, and that was a four point penalty. It was yeah, the quarter was running, the quarters running out. They are not running a play. The only thing they're going to the line of scrimmage. They're hard counting you and they're trying to get you to jump into the neutral zone. Which is why Jordan may loot It reacted so quickly when Dante Fowler went of the new they're just baiting you,

and you took the bait. Well, the nuance of that was the motion they had did the heart account with the motion, right, So when he saw that, I mean, he's paying attention to the ball and this guy has moving but oh I just saw somebody. But you have to pay the most attention to the situation and understand what they're truth they're doing. And well it's how they did it, which was kind yeah, it was kind of.

It was good with the motion, which once he saw that twitch, then he went, that's just you know, but they'll find the sucker. You can find, so find the sucker in every defense. Okay. So there's a four point play right there, and as it turned out, great disparity ten penalties in the Cowboys two yeah, two for two yards against the Eagles. Yeah, but I mean there's one you had in your control, Brian, you know, and and

then the other, uh, the other situation. The other thing at the end of the night last night that I'm looking at is Okay, the CD LAMB first downplay, and it was evident watching on television that it appeared that he got to the line, and it was very easy to figure out where the line is because it started the drive started at the twenty five yard line. It's no gray area on are you is the first down marker in between two yard lines? No, you get to

that white stripe. And the only question from our viewpoint watching on TV because we're blocked, is did a knee hit the ground before the stretch? And obviously on the replay, it was clear he got the first half and McCarthy was told I got the knee down before he reached out, okay the official, So that's what the officials said. They told him that and he never got a chance to see and he said they hadn't done a replay, and he goes, there was no way I was going to

get one seconds. Well, they need yeah, they didn't need to show. They have a TV monitor and the coaches both Kent didn't get I don't think it got on TV. That's right because it wasn't. It wasn't showed it. That's right because it then the reason I didn't get on TV because the Cowboys were going turbo there, right exactly. That's what McCarty explained, and he goes, we already had the play called. We got to the line of scrimmage

and I didn't get a replay. So it was like, okay, that's what I can't remember if he said, he said or she said the female official. I think it was the female official. I think on that one. But she had the it was it definitely was it definitely was. She had the correct spot for what she saw, yes, but but is that her call or not? Because if she if she has the correct spot, then go buy

that spot. Well, I deferred to the guy on the other side of the say, and the guy on the other side of the field was on our side, yes, and I could not see. And I think he was marking based on what she was marking when they did not based on what she marked. No, No, she marked it ahead. She marked it first down he came here. Oh no, no, I thought she had it. Okay, everybody, I'm out. Then I didn't. I didn't realize she had it marked. She had it marked correctly, And that's where

the confusion came. Then when the other guy came from the other side, you could clearly see he was behind the line. He was behind that that mark okay, and for some reason all the confusion, she decides to defer to him. I got you. So that would have been the side the side judge because she was the down judge, so who has saw her by Alan Bain, who has priority when it comes up, she would have had the better look at it. That's right, because my side you're blocked,

which is the TV side, you're blocked on it. Yeah, but but once again you have to go buy you know, pecking order. There's a pecking order. Does she call it, does the lock down lineman call it, or does a side judge call it? So so here here's the other part of that. What happened in that playoff game in Minnesota to the Saints. Right, the guy closest to it had the call, but he was a young official and the veteran guy came down and waved his butt off. Okay,

you got the bad spot. Okay, you don't have to go turbo there. You don't have to. I mean, you're at your own thirty four yard line, you're trailing fourteen to nothing. But there is a decision to be made about are we going for it on And obviously they made the decision to go for it. They made the decision before they ran the third down play. They're going they're getting this first down if they're close, and they

needed to. By the way, Yeah, okay, so I know I'm yelling at my TV saying, challenge it as it happened. That's what I'm saying, okay, And I know a lot of other people were. I would assume that there were people on the Cowboys headset saying the same thing. And you said that the officials said I had the knee down, and so that's why they go, he said, normally when they tell me that, they're not changing. So my question to you and to you, is it worth a challenge? Yes, yes,

yes it is. It was. But he went off of his his history of when they tell you that frances are, you're not. But that still doesn't negate the ability to change. Yes, I know, and yeah they can be what they are, but we are what we are and I think want that call, We want that spot. And here's the here's the deal on it. If it's early in the game, okay, maybe you don't want to challenge whatever, But if your

decision is that you're going to go for it. If if it's spotted there and you're not challenging, then I think you got a challenge. You have to because if if, if you're gonna punt, if your decision is to punt, then maybe it's not worth a challenge. Okay, but you

even though, even though you wouldn't want to challenge. But if you're a particulous situation on the field, if if that's if, if your goal is to get this first down, then use every resource you can get to get that first you want you want to be at least close to midfield when you make a play like that, because the alternative on that is and the Eagles have not

driven the length of the field on you. You've given them the ball in your own end of the field a couple of times, okay, and um, the alternative on that is your punters as is putting the ball sixty yards and so you're flipping the field on them. Yes,

if you decide to punt on fourth and inches. So anyway, anyway, at the end of the night, four points on the Dante Fowler off sides and then they got they went one yard four places, kicked the field goal, and so you basically handed them three points there so there are seven points that make a difference at the end of that game. There are other field goal came off a turnover.

I figured out the Cowboys handed them nine point nine or point and points they didn't if you think about it, he's throwing a touchdown pass this to Cede Lamb in the fourth quarter. Yeah, it's a touchdown and he gets hit. Yes, Brandon Graham, we talked about him last week about what are they going to do with this guy? To that point in the game, all he had was an assisted tackle. He had zero doubts. And then he gets his only quarterback hit on that play and he's wide open, he's

going and the ball just kind of flutters. You could tell as he released it he knew it, Yeah, and we knew that he was. It was no you know that you can always knitpick a little bit one thing that you see. Of course, in losses you see things, yeah that you don't that you're blind to what other otherwise wins. And when you see his release, it's just a little laborers. It's slow, methodical, and that you know, if you'll come up against a good defense, then that's

gonna be a problem. That tale is gonna show and it showed a couple of times last night when the Blitzers were coming. You need a little bit quicker release, get it out fast. But you know, he's got to be who he is, and it's been working for him all this time, a slow release because ever Everson Walls will jump on that round. You're damn right. Well, you're damn right. And I would like to say they jumped on as routes and the interceptions, but you know what,

those guys were never open. I don't know they want I don't know what he saw. What did I tell you? These guys can cover? Man, They talked about it last I don't know if he figured the one, though's gonna be very what's the worst thing for a quarterback? When the ball gets tipped up in the air, man, that's an interception. Yeah, And and that was the difference in the two quarterbacks playlist, right, It was taking a risk. Hurts didn't play. He didn't well, and I think he

didn't have to. Yeah, it was all very simplified for him. And and so this is a game that you wanted it to be three nothing, you know, seven Let them make the exactly right the way the first quarter was playing out. It's a nothing, nothing game, and it's I mean, it was going to be one of those grinded out games, and you cannot afford to have the interceptions in your own end of the field like that. The only time he had pressure on him was when it got to

twenty seventeen and he handled it. They drove seventy five yards on better prior to that. Prior to that, that's where you saw some flaws and hurts, yea, because he was about to turn it over there, right, and you saw the pressure building from our defensive standpoint, right. Yeah, we started to put the pressure on him, and that that's when you're like, Okay, here it comes. You know that was gonna happen. But like you said, he came

out with that great. They had like three consecutive third down conversions, and he was starting to use his legs and they're starting to run the ball, right, they were starting to run the ball, and they knew they knew what they had to do. I mean, we both looked

like mirror teams of each other. Yeah, and how we were approaching the game, especially in the third quarter, you know, and I think we talked about it on Friday it's like you never play a perfect game, but this one had to be as close to perfect I think to go on to stay in and win. Yes, right, yes, And they they did things out of character. They did three turnovers, the penalties the first half, inability to run the football, uh not fall behind where you had to

play catch up with your backup quarterback. Um, those were all the things that they had followed in those they forced us to do things with Cooper that we don't usually do with it, that you don't want to. Yeah, and then trying to throw the ball deep, leaving in with third and long way too many times, and even with a lead, the Eagles were getting lured into that.

In the third quarter, the Cowboys had cut it to twenty to ten and that was and then the Philadelphia had the possession where they started, they were throwing the ball and that's where Parsons almost had the interception in coverage and he got the penalty for the personal or for the unsportsmanlike conduct, whatever you call it. Uh. And then uh so Hurts almost threw a pick there and then he got sacked by Fowler on a third and

seven play and forced him to punt. And then so they were getting out of their game plan there, okay. The Cowboys then go on the ninety three yard drive to make it a twenty to seventeen game. And then they went back to the running the game when ninety three yard drive because they got a hold on a kickoff return that had no business that cost him forty yards. The guy was he wasn't even holding. The guy was trying to go. He was spinning away. His hands up

and the guy's spinning he did a revolution. I don't understand, all right?

forget about the bye. Yeah, and so mix shots. Where we headed next with your mix shots? I got my mix shots in the first segment. What about it picks to click? Yeah? What about him? Yeah? My Cooper rush didn't work out too Nope. I think Ryan was okay, but I shouldn't have specified. I had Zeke with receptions. I don't think he caught one ball, Yeah he did one. I think he's one had yards from scrimmage to become only the third Cowboy running back with more than ten

thousand yards from scrimmage. One catch for five yards, one catch for five yards, and one hell amazing touchdown run by the way, I thought that he was surprised, like, whoa, I'm still over who was the best running back on the field yesterday? It was Zeke. Yeah, there's no doubt.

Thirteen carries for eighty one yards, which is over six yards to carry, and so they don't fall behind a contest yards after That's what I like about the yards after content and even after they stopped him, then he lunged forward even more when he went to Okay, so, uh, what do you think of the rotation? They reverse the

rotation a little bit for a portion there. Yeah, yeah, they were I think what they were thinking, if we need to break one, get a big play because we're not getting anywhere three you know, not three and out. But they were cloud of dust. Yeah, they were grinding and grinding. And the way uh they were playing defense. The Eagles, they didn't give them any free shots down the sideline. They just and they didn't really have time. They were getting pressure, they didn't get sacks. But they

were getting pressure. Uh. And then I thought the key thing was is, oh, so what are tight ends or rookies. We're gonna throw the ball to him. We're gonna start rolling out naked boots and throw to the tight ends. And those guys came through and did you see the Kelsey move? Yeah? Come on, that was like, yeah, that was really nice. Gave him the slow lay. Yeah, let me try it again, like I got it? Yeah, yeah, but yeah, Shot had that catch over the middle. Who

was it? I did you picked Shultz? No? No, I said that tight ends, tight ends need to play this game. Well, receivers are going to be covered, and I said, the tight ends are gonna have to break out this game. And that's why I picked Zeke as well for receptions, because we were gonna have to throw to people other than the outside of the s. After a week in which the Cowboys didn't complete any passes to a running back or a tight end, I don't even know that

the targets the week, but they did not. They did not, And in this game they had six catches for sixty two yards and a touchdown without Dalton Schultz, who by the way, was not on any injury report all week and come Saturday, it was like something's hurting, but he was not on an injury report. I don't believe you could see doing the previous game. He just didn't look good. He had to be every time that he played, every time he got off the ground, he had half help. Yeah. Yeah,

so that wasn't a good look. Yeah, you can't run vouts when you have to be helped up off the ground. I just I just remember him saying he practiced fully during the week. Is that not right? I'm looking it up now. You know, he was limited Wednesday Thursday, but he was full on Friday, So that's what you're talking about. But friday's a stay day or right. Yeah, but they're projecting for saturdactly. Yeah, they projected wrong, and so he was coming. So maybe hopefully he didn't have a setback,

but apparently he did in that regard. So and the way the way they played, I can't see I mean, shouts the heck of a play. You know, it's my guy. I can't see him doing much better than what those guys. The only the only failure on those guys was the fourth down play, because that's what he wanted to do was hit the crossing route to the tight end and

they never cleared and got open. And complicating that, if I remember, Noah Brown missed his block and the guy that was going to pressure uh Cooper rush right, and he did and caused him to have to run a little further when he probably would have liked to thrown the ball sooner. And in other situations, you know our defense will cover by asses, right, and this was not the game to do that. It wasn't the exact same play. But one of my buddies at work who I was

watching the game alongside me, Nate Tarp play. I'll give Nat a shout out on the fourth down play. He said, why are we throwing the ball? And fourth down? I said, do you remember the Cincinnati game fourth and one on the end of the field hit Noah Brown. Okay, so it's not unheard of that you wouldn't run well at that point in the game, they weren't running. And by the way, my point to date was you liked it when they completed the pig, Come on, what are you doing?

A great players? Yeah, play call that was, but they they I think made a conservative effort that the second half to get the ball to the tight end, make them cover. They had no choice, middle had no choice. You had Gallup being swallowed up by Slay and to to you know, Slave's credit, he did a good job. But yeah, you have to play into that. We never had a chance to go deep to Michael Gallop. And if you can't go deep with a speech there, then

you're really confining him unnecessarily. That's why. That's why the play that the dB fell on and Lamb's gonna score, that was the first time they had a shot down the field and he saw it because the safety wasn't going to get there. I think it depending on the court. I don't think they liked going deep too often with Cooper. It just seems like they wanted to keep him, you know,

more confined to mid level passes. And you know, before the game, Jason Garrett pointed out that their cowboys are gonna I was surprised to see ye yesterday I got a chance to go ahead. I was like, I'm up here thinking I'm listening to you guys talk, I'm doing some other stuff. You forgot that was I ran it back, like, son, look what this is like? Does he do this all the time, did I miss it? Yes, you just don't. Yeah,

and that's what my son said. Yeah, he's been on that. Uh. He pointed out that because of the way their corners play, the Cowboys are gonna have to attack the middle of the field, which meant the tight ends right crossing routes, and that's what they tried, and they weren't really open because the safeties were coming up and you know, whoever was covering out the one time, I think the guy that tipped the ball was at a linebacker. The first one I don't remember. Let's let's let's look at it

like this. We decided second half we're going to run the ball more, right, that is why the tight ends got open. Okay, those linebackers they had their hands full, you know, trying to keep it from blocking them. The next thing you know, they come with the play action and you've got tight ends wilde open while linebackers are

looking at Zeke. So no, that was by design, and that's that's the only way to attack that Philadelphia team, because no one's going to consist to lead beat their cornerbacks unless you're someone with buffalo or a chief on your helmet. Yeah. I was trying to see because I remember writing down what did that ended up with? They had they had the six forty six left in the

third quarter, they had a drive going. They went two tight ends, three wide receivers, three wide receivers, three drive receiver, three tight ends, two tight ends, two tight ends, and they got all the way down to three tight ends at first and ten at the twenty, and then they went three wide and a tight end empty and then Zeke ran for his touchdown. So evidently those guys were blocked, and yes they were, Yes they were, and so that that that so guess what they made some halftime adjustments

they did, didn't they Those are good adjustments. You only when you lose do you get accused for not making halftime adjustments. And defensively too, yes, I was gonna say yes, both sides, because they they they they were attacked. I didn't expect them to play so much too tight end. That was almost their base offense. That was two tight ends and they kept running and Micah Parsons wasn't playing a true defensive end most of the time. He was the linebacker on the line of scrimmage and they were

putting him in a read position. Are you going for the rollout? Are you going to cover? But they couldn't have been asking him to cover wide receivers, I think, and Jordan and force the play right, you can't do both. Look, Jordan Lewis blew the one cover. Yes he did, because the guy went in motion. He went in motion and he got in the middle and he stopped, he stopped. What was he doing. He don't know what he's doing.

He didn't know what he was doing. And then it looked like you know they said on TV, while yeah, they got you know, Michael Parsons, Well, Michael Parsons is not supposed to be covering ahead. He's good that you can't do both cover wide and then play containment and cover Brown. That ain't happening. Now, that wasn't all on him,

and we didn't. We finally made the adjustment. But I think that was a weak side of tech, yes to where we were out numbered because they were motioning to the weak side and and you know, good good on them because they figured we can't block him, so we gotta make him decide. But we but we should have been able to make that adjustment sooner right where he could be covered by someone in the second day. Michael was not covered by anyone in the second No, and

he's not gonna cover a J. Brown. It's not gonna happen. So that was that was good on their part because they ran too tight in quite a bit. Well, when you think about how concerned with this quarterbacks the Cowboys ended up with four sacks. They had four sacks and six quarterback hits. No, four quarterback hits was the majority of that. In the third quarter, that paraduct they don't break down defensive staff because you really didn't see us

getting momentum until after we scored our first touchdown. Well, one of the sacks came on their first series of the game during Armstrong really really showing this button. I love it. You know the problem for the Cowboys and we got to take a break. Uh, when you're just playing into the Eagles hands when they are in quote unquote four down territory once they get past midfield, you know you gave them yeah and so and so there

they are two domains. Then okay, you can if you can keep them one dimensional, back them up at their own end of the It's such a it should be such a feel position. Now to the Philadelphia's credit. They took the ball seventy five yards when the game was on the line up twenty to seventeen, and the Cowboys couldn't stop the run. Uh, and they never went to a fourth down. They got several third and one quarterback sneak. I think we gave them anything either. I think they

pretty much earned it. I don't think with penalties or anything. Right and uh. But but to the point of the sacks on Hurts, and this goes back to when I watched him in college, when in games, especially where they were behind or close games, the decision making, the processing is not as quick as you can get to us exactly right. And that's why they have tailored their offense. And it's a college type offense with these RPOs with four hurts that it makes that slows down the game.

It makes it simple for him. Yeah, we're not, which is why if they need to play from ahead in games, if they were in the same position the Cowboys were yesterday, it would have been disastrous. I wouldn't say necessarily hit, but keep that play right. But if they fall fall behind twenty nothing like Cowboys did yesterday, they're in trouble. And to accentuate what you said about that last touchdown drive. They converted thirty and four third and four third and one,

so you're very manageable. We were just kind of running. Yes, yeah, that's us with Cooper. All right, we need to take a break and we wrap up mixed shots in just a moment. We paid how much for those lessons? She's doing great? Oh yeah, totally. Can you pass me a pepsi zero sugar? Great job, honey, Oh look at that. That's not the end, no way. Now it's time for the encore. You know what, You're right? Five times? Not enough times everyone who traded in rock concerts for their

Well, clearly Everson got upset with something that Mickey said in the last second out of here, and I had a question for him. Oh okay,

we'll have to save that question. Then it's gonna be hard because it's on top of mine right now, and by the time write it down, by the time he comes in back in here, you will forget it. And it happened around what we were talking about off the year about and that they went for the cosion version. Yes, when they were already up what they're up nine, would

have been up ten. Maybe he didn't have either he got greedy or he didn't have confidence in his defense, it's analytics, Yeah, that's what we came up, right, So it's like, you get it on the one yard line, you can plow it in like they've been doing all game. It's ridiculous. It is ridiculous. It is it is. You don't chase points. Well, all right, I want Everson to be in here. I was hesitating bringing it up because I want it. Everson, dude, respond to it. I think

he would agree. But anyway, all right, you are up twenty six to seventeen with seven minutes left in the game. Okay, Yeah, there was the Treyvon Diggs penalty, and so you decide to take the penalty and go half the distance. So you're at the one yard line, whatever yard line you're at. Okay, I don't care if you're at the one inch line. What analytics tells you to go for two? Up nine points with seven minutes left in the game. If you don't make it, the opponent can beat you by scoring

a touchdown and kicking a field goal. That makes no sense whatsoever. Or you leave yourself susceptible to kicking a field goal and scoring a touchdown and going for two to win it. All right, if you want it. Jefferson back, He held good because now I can ask him right, Uh, hurry up, get in here. We got questions on the docket. We were we were just we were just talking about I know, if you ever got an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty because you said something offensive to your opponent. No, I

never did. But I didn't talk during the game. You know, he's never said anything offensive to anyone. I don't do that. I mean, unless you're management. I can't throw a flag on because that's when the flag came out. Yeah, well you could see it was talking. I was on dig I thought you're talking about Parsons. I thought some one

the one noon Parsons. If Diggs got for just throwing because he took it off talking trash because he's like, okay, I finally made the play, yes, because they were, you know, making like he was posture. He didn't posh, you're The flag didn't come out until he said somebody dropped a dime. It was snitches. It was a snitch out right. Well, Goddard was complaining, yeah, because he was right, and God's well, yeah, nothing, that's his face his ear, Yeah, he was in his ear.

He wasn't his You see Goddard look pointing at him. He was looking at the reft going on. Then, who can't come on, man? I mean how many times has someone go, hey, man, this guy's talking to him? All right? You watch it now I'm gonna get you next time. You got the immediate you got an immediate reaction. Come on. Okay, so asked the cornerback, O the Treyvon reaction. Has he ever reacted like that a Touchdow? You gotta do that one sidelines? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and he can be frustrated.

You can't take that hand with half was when you're quiet, dude like that? Yeah, he keeps it in right and then all of a sudden he just this. Here's there's another part of that. You know who scored the touchdown? Who touchdown? Yeah? So you didn't have that, had to have set. Yeah, that's like you can't let him like your brother scoring a touchdown. You can't let him, you swear you can't. He broken? He broken, bad day? Okay, okay,

so my rant was Sirianni. The Eagles coach decides they're ahead by nine points with seven minutes left in the game, is twenty six to seventeen, and he takes a penalty, so he's one yard out. Okay, I don't care if he's at the one inch line. Kick the extra point. You can't. They didn't make the two points that gave

us really exactly. I gave the Cowboys hope, real hope that that we not only happened exactly, that we not only can you know, if we get a touchdown in a field goal, we win the game, win the game. You know that was I was surprised at that. Yeah, I mean because I mean, what made them scoring us? I mean, come on, we still have a good defense, reclass of what you're doing. There were seven minutes left, you know, there's plenty of time for the Cowboys to

have on two possessions. He got cute, he got really cute. So when they when they when they called the unsportsman like on digs, I wrote down, there's three flags on the field? Now, was one enough? Everybody else? Oh yeah, I saw it. I get points, come on, ones enough through three and they all didn't go down at the same time, right, So who do you think of every time that a penalty is called for taking the helmet

off on the fieldmet of course. So my buddy Nate, I'm watching the game, was said, how come he gets a penalty? States our age? So I mean he should know, I said, how can you get to He said, how come he gets a penalty for taking his helm? Throwing his helmet down. Well, you can blame that on him. It now, he didn't do it. He didn't do it, which hey, every other sport everybody sees a face, right except football, you don't know. And that was the reason

why they felt so good about doing it. Yeah, you know. And I don't blame it. I didn't do it when I played. But I mean, come on, not blamed them at all. That was that was good stuff. Take the helmet off, I guess go running now you can Okay, you can't take the helmet off, but you can go running down with your boys into the end. Yeah, well, I mean come on, man, right that to me, that's most silly than one of the one of their touchdowns. The guy actually was up in the stands. He didn't

jump on a wall. He was. He climbed over into the stands. It's like, that's okay, ah, just don't want to see your face. Well, can we have our victory music on two Stays and the twenty five? Man? I don't want to hear that song. No, not tough Friday, not too fun. Get you fired up for Dan cam We got work too, Lions, we got word he'll be fired up for this one, he will, Yeah, you can save his season. I want to one in four Lions coming off of bye waiting. That's what they've fallen to.

One and four. They're one in four. Yeah right. They had to buy and everybody was all over them after hard knocks that so, so they got one and four, two and four, three and three coming up. Yep. And my son said it yesterday, and I said it even at the first game. It's gonna be a tough season for everyone. You know, when you talk about fantasy and all that kind of stuff, there are no guarantees week to week, and it just hasn't ironed out yet, you know what I mean. It hasn't settled yet. You still

have guys making mistakes. You still have guys making plays that they're not gonna make in December. They're making great plays now, they're not gonna make some of these plays in December. And you've got guys who are going to turn their season around. Whatnot that's turning around. They're just gonna slowly trend up with into whether they're supposed to be. And quite as it kept, I still think Aaron Rodgers

and those Packers better look out. All I know is I'm watching two games at the same time, the early games, right, so it have been the Giant and Ravens. Ravens, Green Bay and the Jets. Halfway through the second quarter. Nobody has scored a touchdown. Nobody has scored a touchdown. The state of New York. Three losses between the three teams, Buffalo, Jets, and Johns. Yeah yeah, and Syracuse. He can throw Syricus. Yeah. Still three losses, yeah right, yeah, the part in New

York City five and one, yeah, and undefeated. The Ravens just handed the Giants that game. Yeah, they did. Lamar Jackson what he turned it over like three successes. Yeah, but it was the one time. Yeah, that was the one. And that's why I say all these my homes and these cute little twist and turns and all that. You play against a good defense, that crap ain't gonna work. You can be cute all you want, you better play real ball when it comes to games like they had

against Buffalo yesterday. You know, he did the puroue at that time the week before, and it makes a great play. Yeah, he tried that crap again the game. He got that crap picked off in the end zone and then even at the end of the game, here looking like Lamar Jackson with the old you know, got the little cute thing going on. Cute man, that stuff can be picked off like anybody that's all cute and everything when it works. But when it doesn't, you're just another guy that's going

to pick and there you haven't. That's it and that is another edition of mix Shots and we will talk at you again tomorrow at noon. Go Cowboys. This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
