Mick Shots: Victory Monday III

Football Giants. This is mixed shots. We are inside the SWBC podcast studio here at Ford Center, dropping at the Star and frisky. You are sounding like Lou Garrett given us the final speech at Yankee Stadium. There we go, Chris Beam making us fight through it. But here we are, and the Cowboys fought through a slow start on Sunday against the Giants and then they picked up speed very quickly. And I think it's great that Chris Beam has picked out the old Cowboy theme song to get us started

not only this week, but last week. And we'll continue a trend throughout the season because I'm going to pay tribute to Don Bishop. Thank you, thank you, not Everson Wall, not Everson Walls. It's the great, Don Bishop. We'll get into that a little bit later because we have come across so amazing stats from Don. You're reading the wrong bill, I think I maybe too, but I'm going to a different gardless anyway. And by the way, when we play that song, we need to see if Douglas still has

his cowboy Joe hat in his office. Yeah. I like that song because it brings back those old feelings. You know, back when that was being played, cowboys were winning all the time, so we were just accustomed to his bags. You want to hear, because you know, I wasn't you were a loser over there, No, I was. I was winning. I was. You're a Packers fan, I'm with you. We were mad at your guys. Now when Don Bishop was playing for the Cowboys, that cowboys were not. But he

was winning though. Yeah, yeah, all over all over the play. So that's why I feel now I wake up, me and my son, we're talking about it. I wake up now. It's a good feeling to watch a game and you know it's not stress, but you just have the confidence when it's all said and done, we can we can complain and complain and complain knowing that we're still gonna win.

You know, I thought the key thing yesterday was obviously they got off to a slow start, right they turned the ball over, and they were good enough to overcome their shortcomings. They outscored themselves. And you know what I said at the time, even though they were struggling in the first quarter, I just had a feeling, I said to a friend, I said, they're going to hang half

a hundred on these guys. Yeah, I mean, you just had that feeling, even with the turnovers, and it was three nothing after Once they were moving the football, they were fine. They were they were just fine. It was only a matter of time. They were in wild what they score you said, moving, they were moving the football. We still were frustrated with the mistakes, but we still had the poise to overcome them. Yeah, usually that stopped. That's three steps right there. Usually we stopped at two.

Last year and years before we stopped it too. Now we're able to because of our poise, and let's face it, because of our defense. We're able to hold him off, the opposition off until our offense gets on. And it's because of the balance on offense, because of the ability to run the football and throw the football, But it's like twenty and sixteen all over again. I just that offensive line man that that's the comfort zone that we have. When you have an offensive line like that, it's like

being around a big brother. You got these big old dudes hanging around and they're always going to have your back. They're always gonna pave the way for you. That's the way we're doing this every week, even though we start offs slow, and it's better than two thou sixteen because you got a double punch at running back now. I mean, Zeke is playing at the same level. I think that he was his rookie year in twenty and sixteen, but now you've got the he hasn't broke a home run

run yet, but you feel like he's gonna. You know, it's it's easy, is that, you know, fifteen or twenty yards for that matter, Dak is getting I'm sorry, Zeke is getting real close to breaking along. That's yeah, yeah, but hadn't done, hadn't done. His little lightning thing is as much as we liked for him too, but still

he's representing extremely well. See. I think the evidence of what we're talking about after it was ten ten that they take the possession two minute drill at the end of the first half and drove right down the field, scored and what up seven? You know what I call that? That was that mojo moment. Yeah, that was that moment. I wrote it down before they even started. It's like, you score here, let's let's put this thing back into

our control. This is getting a little bit. It's not funny anymore that these guys are hanging around like some cute little bugs and some pests. You know, that's what they were. They were just some pests until we decided to just put the hammer down. Play started with that that two minute drink eight play seventy five yards yeah, two fifteen uh. It took and the touchdown pass was rather incredible on two points uh one, the route that Amari Cooper ran on, that guy spun him around with.

I mean, he's just unbelievable. And then Dak threads a needle because there's two guys there, right, and I was when I saw it, I go old, that's gonna get picked. Dak's only looking at the safety. He's not even looked at the cornerback because he's corner was already he was going to be there, so he's only concentrated the safety. Make sure I can't get that in there. Yeah, that's just confidence man, just on all levels and command of

the offense. He knows. Yeah, well, yeah, they talked about that because you know they what forty eight tried to sneak up and get the blitz. Of course, Dak saw it based on the alignment here and beyond is working well together, pointing out the alignement and how okay when when before he changed it, then they had all beyond, just had it all counted out. Then forty eight came around. Dak's like, hold up, he's coming now, we have to

change everything, and they slid it over here. Zeke picked up of the inside guy here and he was big and it speaks pass Yes, it speaks also, I mean to the preparation that Dak has on a daily basis, weekly basis, year round basis. It's it's on an elite level. And the and the aptitude not only of him, but everybody in that room. Where I mean when think of the think of the minds, the quarterback minds they have

in that room. Uh, not just Dak, but Kellen Moore and Doug nuss Meyer and Mike McCarthy and being it simplifies the whole thing for him as they prepare each way. And let's face it, the white receivers and running backs all on the same page. Yeah, it's effortless for them mentally. I mean, if you look at the touchdown past to Zeke, the play design was perfect for what the Giants were doing.

Twenty three. It was Logan Ryan. He came up in the slot, he was gonna blitz right, and he thought he had the perfect run blitz because Dak faked the pitch out to Zeke and he came firing up and then Zeke just goes around him and all Dak had to do was throw a lollipop over his head for the kind of high step touchdown right. But it was a perfect call. And I don't know if they adjusted, if there was a read there. He saw the safety coming up, it's like, okay, I'm not giving you the bone.

You just go run a wheel round. And that's the thing. And when you talk about the receivers, it's those sight adjustments that they've got to make on the fly. That you have to have smart receivers, whether their wide receivers, TI in running backs or whatever. Who are on the same page that you are. And that's where experience in an offense and having worked together, they're just ready. Bryan Wilson's coming in just seamless, you know, including him and everything.

I mean, just think about the experience that the Cowboys Receiving Corps has across the board multiple years in this same offense. It's amazing. And that's one of the reasons. You know, give Mike mccrothy credit for that. He didn't want to disrupt whatever continuity the team had going between Kellen Moore, Colin plays and Dak Prescott running the same offense, instead of coming in and going, Okay, I'm sorry, this

is my offense. We're gonna do it this way. And he didn't do that, and he should be applauded for that. I'm telling you, ficking Kellen Moore, man, he is in his bag. As my son says, matter of fact, he and Quinn, they both seem to be working so well off of each other. We made the mistakes early on, as I said earlier, defensively we were able to hold them off. You know, the last couple of years. If we make those mistakes, man, we're down fourteen nothing and

it's snowballs. Yeah, we're down fourteen nothing, We're not They're gonna be We're gonna be totally clueless offensively, They're gonna just probably some big play. Within three downs, they're going to score. We go do it again. They'll probably do the same thing, and we'll be over there not knowing what the hell is going on. Then offense has to come back with them just blind. Feury're trying to catch up and while the defense continues to give it up.

That's totally different this year. You know, think about I was just sitting there thinking about the skill position players on this team, and there's only one that's playing who has less than three years experience in this offense, and that's CD Lamb Right, Yeah, I mean you think Zeke and Pollard, the two tight ends, and the receivers went and when Gallup's healthy as well, it's only CD is the only one who has less than three years experience

in this offense. So we're talking about juniors and put it in college terms. These are all juniors and seniors. In many cases, they're going up against freshman and sophomores. And it's graduate students, guys with master's degree and CDs. He's a breakout run waiting to which brings us to this week's opponent. In the twenty years of dominance that the New England Patriots had with Tom Brady, I mean, how much did they benefit just from the experience factor of all of not only Brady but all of his

receivers and everything through the years. It gives you such a huge advantage, as much turnover as there is in this list. And it'd be interesting, you know how many offensive coordinators they had during that time. But the stabilizing influence was Belichick, right, So if he brought in a different coordinator or he elevated one, it's like, no, no, you're not coming in with your offense. This is our offense.

You learn it here. Here's the book. Book read read that. Yeah, and you know it's so crazy about the anniversary or whatever three hundred and sixty four days or sixty five, which wasn't I thought I thought we finished that. I can't remember what the answer was. Sixty five five, three sixty five days that year? Its three sixty six to day, Yes,

that's right. Well, anyway, it seemed like Karma has really kind of started backing the Cowboys because not only did da Go make it through the game, have this great game, and of course this entire year has been magical. Everyone else is getting hurt on the Giant squad. I mean that's ridiculous, man. They had six ft six guys go down. Well count them. Say Quin was first, right, and that was after the play he stepped on Jordan Lewis foot right and he and he they showed the picture that

that didn't look swollen. Yeah, if that was swollen, I don't know that. That was way too big for the next week really, yeah, okay, and then they lost Day on the interception that was late. No, I was on the near interception. Yeah, when when Diggs broke across and when Diggs when he fell on Digg's ankle, right, he also messed up his knee because he grabbed it as he rolled over. That's just how much how that was the force that that Dicks came to intercept that ball.

He didn't come underneath, he went over the top. He passed him over the top and still almost stole it, which allowed Golladay to to have a misstep, right, And that's how we ended up her. So then they lose Daniel Jones yea. Then they lose Golladay eventually m and they were already down Sterling Shepherd, Tony came out, they

came back and they were down before the game. They lost the left tackle, and then Thomas before the game play they had him inactive right and then Um and then the only way they were going to stop Cadarius Tony as he threw a punch, it got ejected ten catches for one hundred kie record for the Giant rookie record, most since nineteen fifty. Just he is amazing, but stupid. I mean, come on, you saw it. The entire time he was calculating how he was going to hit Jordan Lewis.

You know, he was sitting there and he fixed his glove, did he? I didn't know this, guys. It was slow. He fixed his glove. The only thing he did was missed, you know. I mean he did all of that. He's closer than Bill and I are, and he missed. I mean he was. He tried to sneak him like a real like an Oli punch or something. That didn't work, so he wasn't and he still got taken down after he missed the punch, So he got kicked he got kicked out of the game, ain't He wasn't watching Fury

the night before. Huh, No, he missed that because Fury was landing. He did not. Um, it's a shame for him because he's probably gonna score another touchdown. He hadn't. Remember we were talking last week about big plays, right, he had thirty eight, thirty five, twenty eight, twenty six four. They couldn't stop him. No, that just and that was the only way that stopped him. And I know we

got going to man. But here's the thing. All of those plays last year that would have resulted in touchdowns, right, every one of them to the end, we folded to the end. We stopped him on the one yard line. Next thing you know, we're getting interceptions, we're getting stops, getting penalty's pushing them back, and you're getting missfield goals. I mean, that's that's not that's not karma. That's just guys playing hard. That's all that is, making plays plays

like like Jabril Cox. You know, unfortunately Daniel Jones gets hurt. Yeah, but think he's playing probably in that game because it's goal line, right, they need an extra linebacker. He might have been playing for Jalen Smith. I don't know. Jalen Smith wouldn't have run, No, he wouldn't not, but he ran them down U and made the tackles a saving. Now, having said that Smith has done that in his career, yes he has, but not doubt about it. There's no

doubt about what he has done. But you know how this league is, whatever you do, that's just the way man. As a business we are all a victim of that guy as a businessman. He was getting paid by two teams on Sunday and didn't have to play not one down. So good luck to you, Jaylen. All right, well we're just getting a man. The time flies when you're winning.

me to do Don Bishop now? Or we want to wait on Don Bishops. Let's do Don Bishop and then we'll do Everson Walls, okay, okay, and Trayvon did first. Yeah, you're looking at Don Bishops. Okay, bring us up to speed now where Trayvon is all time in the record setting season that he's having in. By the way, Richard Sherman tweeting out that he's the right now, he's the defensive player of the year in this already, yes, in

which I would agree with. So he has a least one interception in each of the first five games, totaling six. And by the way, he had an interception last year in game fifteen, So that means seven in the last seven games because he didn't have one in game sixteen last year. Okay, So he's got seven total in seven games, but five in the first five games of the year

for the Cowboys. In in team history, Don Bishop was the last guy to do that in the first five games of a year, having an interception in each game, which occurred in nineteen sixty one, so sixty years ago. And as you know, dig says six in the five games, he's got one at least one in every game so far. And Everson. We've gone through the less several weeks about what Everson did in rookie year at eleven picks and

two in the postseasons or count thirteen. I've never heard, by the way, Yeah, all these guys are going down. Bishop went down, he's weak. Yeah these week guys, I didn't go down. I'm all right. So so anyway, I decided to look up Don Bishop. Okay, and you said it was the Cowboy record again was five one in each of the first five first five games of the

season of the nineteen sixty one season. Correct, Okay, So I went and looked up on Pro Football Reference Don Bishop, and so I'm looking at the nineteen sixty one season, and yeah, sure enough, he's got picks in the first five games of the year. Well, then he missed the next three weeks, and in weeks nine and ten in nineteen sixty one he also had interceptions. So the only games he played in in nineteen sixty one there were seven games, and he had picks in every single game.

So there there, in nineteen sixty one, he played in seven games, had picks in every game. So I went back to nineteen sixty with the Cowboys. He played in three games in nineteen sixty weeks one, seven, and nine. He had picks in every game. So now we're up to how many ten straight for him for him in games he's played. That's ten straight games in nineteen sixty ninety sixty one. Okay, let's fast forward in nineteen sixty nineteen sixty two. He had a first game he played in,

which was Week three. He had a pick against the Rams. Week four, he had a pick against Cleveland. Week six, he missed another week. In Week six, he had two picks, Week seven a pick. In Week fourteen he had another pick. So every game he played in in nineteen sixty two he had an interception. So now we're up to fifty. Not sure about this bill. It's just too good to be true. I'm wondering, Yeah, I miss reading this or what. And so there's fifteen straight games that he played in

from sixteen to sixty two. Oh what about nineteen sixty three? Okay, he played in Week one, there's an interception against Saint Louis. Week four, he had an interception at Philadelphia. Next week he played Week eight. It gets washed. He say he missed the game in between Week four, miss Week eight's he played in week one, got a pick, he missed

weeks two and see about that. Well, miss two not listed on his game blog, and then week four he had an interception, and then missed weeks five, six, and seven. In week he had an interception, and then also in weeks eleven and thirteen, and and so five games in nineteen sixty three, which brings us to a total of twenty straight games in which he played. And this isn't just his interception log, because you go back to nineteen fifty eight when he was with Pittsburgh, he has he

has two games. No, it was the NFL Pittsburgh, and he had two games in nineteen fifty eight where he did not had an interception on this same game log. Okay, So in his career Pittsburgh and then Dallas, he played in twenty two games and had interceptions in twenty of those games. All twenty of the games he played with with the Cowboys, he had picks. That's that's difficult, Bill, It's not difficult that he did it. Yeah, that we haven't been been made a web of this, that makes easy.

It can if anyone out there in the Bishop family. First of all, no one listened to this show, so I'm talking. But if anyone family, anyone knows anyone outside the circle of the bishop family, please call us. We have got to find out more about this amazing young man. So when you had eleven in eighty one, did you have any consecutive streaks going that you remember? I can't remember. I just felt like they all punched together. We would

have to we can call that up. The only thing I beg about it is they always they was on prime time. I had only Prime touch was the original Prime time. Most of my interceptions, my two interception games came on Monday Night football in eighty one. In eighty one, you had new Rams bills at New England and New England. First New England you had two picks, which was one of the last times, the second to last time the Cowboys beat New England in New England eighty six was

the up seven eighty seven? Yes, Thornton Chandler always reminds me that he threw the boat through the block right and overtime it was like the second place it was. I was there and it was freezing. It was amazing. I remember walking out of the press box after that game after we finished working, and I swear it was like twenty degrees and the wind was blown Danniel White through the best pass I've ever seen to Mike Renfeld.

For some reason, the cornerback Lapette bites on a out and up when it's third in twenty he bites on the out and up and Mike Renfeld just, oh my god, the best overachieving teammate I've ever had in my life. So when we look at the records, we talked about ever since eleven in eighty one, which is still a Cowboys record and most in the NFL. The last forty years before he got here, mel renfro Sent set this single season record of interceptions with ten in nineteen sixty nine.

I broke his record Philadelphia game. I think it was the last game of the season that year, in nineteen eighty one, second to last game of the season, second to the last, And prior to that, the record was eight by in nineteen sixty one, nineteen sixty one, yes, eight twenty straight games he had interceptions. So just understand what Diggs is doing, right, And we talked about ever since eleven, but the next highest total was nine in eighty five by Everson Walls. So uh and and as

I looked through this now, when I got eleven. Excuse me, when I got eleven? Uh huh. Dennis Sturman had nine in nineteen eighty one, Okay, because I was gonna say when I yet nobody in eighty five. Yeah, but in eighty one is when he got nine. Oh. Okay, since since Everson had nine in eighty five, no Cowboy player has had more than six in one season. Oh, there was a bunch of guys. So Michael Downs the next year had six h Kevin Smith had six in ninety three.

In ninety three, Larry Brown and Brock Marion both had six in H and Anthony Henry had six in two thousand and seven. So he's the most recent guy with six picks. That's the one from Ohio State. Anthony Henry. Yeah, oh you got me on that. You know. I think he was the one that he came over from the Browns. Yeah, I think so. Well. I got started feeling himself real good. He had a few interceptions and he's like, hey, what's the record eleven? He goes out, Shoot, it was in

two thousand and seven. Uh, And I'm looking up Anthony Henry right now. And he went to South Florida, Florida floor. So you understand what Digs is doing. It's kind of what I wrote in my column today. Let history explain what's going on right now. I love what Zeke said after the game about it's got to be some kind of record talking about Trayvon and his interceptions. Did you see it? He was saying, uh, now, what's the single season record? It's fourteen for the NFL in a night train.

So anyway, and this press conference yesterday and his press conference after the game yesterday, Zeke said, man, that's got to be some kind of record, and that Trayvon's already got say where he's closing in on some kind of record. I mean, what's a record nine or ten? And someone said fourteen. Zeke's a reaction priceless. Oh, he's always always oh never mind, Well you know why, So I was. I wanted to look up. So since Everson had eleven, I said, well the records fourteen? Who had more after

Everson or before the year before? And eighty Lester Hayes thirteen, And that that year Lester Hayes had thirteen. He had five in the postseason, if I'm not mistaken, and he dropped two right in his hands. He didn't have a stick him on. He did have a stick him on. That's why they outlawed it in eighty one and he never got more than two. You you are the first in I didn't even want gloves in eighty one, so yeah, that was That's just it was a difference and they

outlawed everything. Blinnikov did it, of course, but for some reason, when Lester Hayes started doing everybody started complaining because he's putting his hands on everyone. So that's the if it's blitic clouse not putting his hands and they was putting on the ball, let's say it glue on is it was on everybody. That's like in baseball, they lowered the pictures mount and everything. There's different records or whatever. So they started checking the pictures this year and all of

a sudden, spin rate went down, Right. I look at that those thirteen interceptions, and people want to put an asteric on it all the time he go after that, I'm think he got more than three his entire career, and he never got anymore before that. So it's kind of hard to legitimize it. But it's hard to de legitimize it when you look at how great a player Lester Hayes, would you wear gloves? Nope? One bare handed in eighty one, No gloves. And there's a man's interceptions

right and at his hands. Lester Hayes had thirteen in the nineteen eighty and then after that the next six years in his career, the most he ever had was four in nineteen eighty five. So so and you know what, speaking of Stickham, Digs almost had two more. Yes he did. I wouldn't give that the one out of the bounds. Yeah, but he caught it. Looked good, he caught it, looked cute you that vertical Yes, and you could just see

his his uh wide receiver skills as well. So tell him, tell him, tell him what you thought of Diggs's interception, Well, only on that interception, since I've gotten so many like that one. You know, he texts me, He goes, uh, hey, what do you think about the interception? I say, it looks just like man, because again I've gotten several of those against the rounds. But I mean I've gotten those all the time. So that particular one where you won the post, I mean, you know, just like with me, uh,

it was kind of under throne. So it makes you look good a little bit, A little bit because it doesn't matter. And stop right there. Because when he let go the ball and I saw where board was, I said that, I said to rob the balls in the air. I said, oh, he's got this. Yeah, I not Diggs. I meant it was gonna be a completion, right, and then he caught up, so go ahead. Yeah, And you could see that it's just hard for a quarterback to come off of the darrest that he had to plan

and throw a great pass. It was good enough to be completed. But when you're a defensive back like Digs, he's hawking the ball as well. His name was looking at the wide receiver. He's only looking at the ball, and it was never in doubt in his mind, only in yours obviously. Yeah, yeah, I thought it was. I mean, and here's the other thing that's amazing to me, and maybe you can explain it to us. It's hard to run as fast as you can with a ball traveling fifty two yards in the air and still track it

and go up and catch it. I missed it against the Rams eighty one I had. I got an interception just like that one. I also missed two just like that one because the difficulty. I mean, you're running as fast as you can trying to judge the ball, and as you know, you've got the force, you got work with the ball going this way, you're trying to go this way. And man, a couple of them just I could afford that. And and and like he knows the same thing. It's the ones that you miss that you

always remember. And it's it's hard to run without jostling your eyes right, your heads bobbing or whatever. That's how my dad taught me how to cats. That's how I ended up being and in the SPS. An interesting story. Go ahead, Yeah, I was in football, I mean in baseball. I was about to ask you did you play center field in baseball? That? What do they put black kids

on a baseball team? They don't put them in, they don't put them at first before we put our one, you kids, Eddie took my leadoff spot away from me. So I'm out there and he was Eddie guy down he was, he was the mid I could walk. He was the guy that Luke Gary end up taking this place. So no, as I was running, I remember they put me out there and I was running. I couldn't adjust that ball. It's like you said, it's bouncing all over

the place. You know. I'm like nine years old and I was going home and my dad my best coach ever, I said, to this day, he's my best coach ever. He said, son, you just got run on your toes and that was it. Once I ran on my toes, it was like magic. All of a sudden, the ball. I can see the ball, and from then on I was the best centifielder we had. I started loving baseball. At first, I hated it, and of course it helped

me be a wide receiver. And once I became a wide receiver, then it's just like Dig Story or any other dB story that can catch. Mel Wrench for himself was a great athlete, one of the best ever all around. All of a sudden, you're like, uh, this ball is in the air. You're still an offensive player in here. So that's why I say, when the ball's in the air, there is no offense defense, right, and who gets it.

You saw McCarthy's comment after the game. He said, you know, when the ball's in the air and Digs is there, you know, it's usually fifty fifty. He goes I don't think it's fifty fifty. But you know what, you're right, Your toes are like cushion, right, if your heels are hitting, then that that's bad. Yeah, all the way around. Yeah, physically and everything. And I just thought he was just

the smartest man I ever knew he could. My dad could look at you and tell you what your weaknesses are just by watching you run, by watching you walk. And that's why he didn't have much hope for me because I walk. Funny, you know, I was nothing. I wasn't built like him because he was such a great athlete, but he still saw how I could be a better athlete.

And that's that's the kind of stuff you have to You're glad you go up on there is a toolis like that they can show you a little bit of confidence. So you know, as as parents, that's what you do. You try to show them what they can do, not what they cannot do, but what they can do with

what they got.

Okay, all right, I'm having to come back off my Don Visiom story earlier. I think I'm just you're finally realizing what the game logs aren't complete. I thought I was gonna say there, I mean Pro Football Reference to the game blocks they got an asteris

by it. That's crazy because he's got on their game logs. Okay, so stop right there and just go up, go up the PR and they've got it. Stop right there, they've got it listed. Yes, thank you bags. Let's just be done with Just know this. You can't trust you can't trust the Pro Football Reference game blocks. So those those games that were missing might be there because you're missing something. No, it's never missing. You missed no way that this game

log is not based on. That disappoints me. And he had so well, and it should disappoint all of you that we spent a whole segment on his incredible streak. So what makes you sent? Made you find the ways of your error in your error? Because I looked up I looked up then on NFL dot com and it said he played in or started sixty games in his career. Well this the game log only shows twenty two games. They but no, here's what happened back then, they didn't

have track tackles, so they just tracked games. He had interception, no because and I thought that at first, But the games in Pittsburgh do not have intersect Here's here's what it is. The game log only only chronicles games. You had stat sein right, right, and those Pittsburgh games. That's what threw me. He didn't have interceptions, but he had receptions in both those games, right, And he was on the stat sheet and also didn't track. They didn't track, tackle,

didn't track, and he played both ways. Apparently with Pittsburgh he did. Yeah, yeah, in nineteen fifty eight. The more you can do, right, the more you could by just like me, I love that. The more you can do, the more you can do, all right, speak, the more you can do. We probably should, uh at least give Dak his due in this game got off to a slow start. Can we can we preface that by going over our picks to click in that game? Yes? Can? You had CD? CD? You had I don't even remember.

It doesn't matter I had Dak, So go ahead, yeah, oh well, he wouldn't have been as good if CD wasn't catching all. I'm with you. I like your picks. You know, he he got off, he got off to a slow start. Um, you know, okay, it's weird. He trying to throw a little dump past the zeke and the guy bats it up in the air and it comes right back right two of them. Yeah, and then the other the other fumble he had, he took his eyes off the snap. Everybody's wanting to blame the center.

The snap was fine. He was looking to where he was gonna go once he cut the ball. And then he mentioned afterwards that, you know, while he basically all week long denied that this game didn't mean that much, that he is a past all that, and then admitted afterwards that he said, yeah, he goes. I didn't have a lot of energy to start. He said, I felt like it was a little funk. And then he mentioned,

he goes in. You know, I realized where I was what happened a year ago, And he said, and it even got a little worse when he saw the cart come out. And the cart came out for sque I believe, and for Daniel. And that's why I said, the whole game, it was just a game of injuries and seeming like karma was on Dallas side and he and he kind of admitted that, you know, hey, I'm human. He didn't say it that way, but you know, the thoughts went through his mind. And then I think, I think the

touchdown pass to Amari settled him down. Got into halftime and it's like, Okay, we're playing football. I don't need a Lamb pass though. My goodness. Yeah, I just thought that was amazing, the Ceedee Lamb touchdown. Yeah. Or the pass to Cedric Wilson, Yeah, dropped that in the bucket on the sideline line. I'm like, the one that didn't count to Zeke. Zeke goes up and snags one. It didn't count, but he goes up to snag and then

it comes down and immediately dies for the first down. Now, this is these the kind of things that it's not like we were just sleep walking in all the other games prior to this year, but you just see a little extra something and just everyone seems to be lighter on their feet this year than previous years. And I have to say, guys, you know, when I dog somebody, then I wanted to be heard. But when I when I eat, I wanted to be heard too. Freaking Anthony

Brown's my dude. Man, Oh, I'm glad you brought right this guy here. Boy he is. You can just see him playing differently. And I tweeted out when he did the pick six, and I always said the interceptions are contagious. They just are. You get inspired to make plays by someone that showed you the way. It doesn't take much. You already got it. The inspiration doesn't have to be that big. All you gotta do is have your eyes open and see the inspiration and then do what your self.

And if you saw the sideline reaction to it was like they were more happy for him, even that d came running off the sideline jumped up and they hip bumped or wherever you want the look up the body language that you can see on Brown himself. Yeah, just when he scored, you could just see it his confidence almost a little cocky. I like that, almost as a little cocky, like I can do this, I can do this, all right. So that's what two interceptions in three games

now for him, that's correct. Somebody tweeted me, And I don't know if if he was playing in nineteen sixty one, he'd have a consecutive game streak going inappropriate Unfortunately, unfortunately they count his tackles and he's been right. Somebody tweeted me and they said it was twenty hours ago when the tweet showed up, but it was the Cowboys need another safety or another corner on the other side. So

I couldn't resist. I was like, so, you mean, like Brown, this guy Anthony that has two interceptions in three games and one back for a touchdown, that's the one you want to replace. Yeah, and let's face it, we know that that. You know, the circumstances kind of push you into that back up core the bag, you know, got it, the conceiver three years late, through all of that, and it's late and late don't matter, it don't matter. Try

and make your play. That's right. And you know, the Giants they were that old school philosophy, We're going to play this game out, even though they had no chance of coming back. And and I think to their credit, actually Mike Glennon needed as many snaps because he may be their starting quarterback next week. And so yeah, you can't sit from the Cowboys perspective. I love it the fact that the Cowboys played it all the way exactly.

That's right, you know, And they got there was a there's a great amount of value in Anthony Brown picking that off, running it back from his confidence standpoint, and just the whole team stuff and seeing Dak come to great you know, that was great to see build so much content. And I've seen a lot of people try to minimize the win because well, they had giants, had all these injuries, and I'm going, hey, no one minimized the losses last year. No one minimize the Bass out

because of the bass. And here's the deal. So, yeah, they had injuries, they were missing guys. So the Cowboys did what they should have done. That's right, right, beat them bad. That's last week when you play a bad team and it's like, oh that team's no good. Okay, well we beat them, beat them bad, and that's what should happen. And so they're four. That's the that's the show. That's the sign of a good professional playoff team. Four and one, first place in the NFC East, two game lead,

and I think I looked up where's my thing? And I'll throw this in while you're looking that up. In the three game homestand in which they went three and oh they average, right, and if Indianapolis and Baltimore don't have an offensive explosion tonight. The Cowboys have scored more points in the NFL than any other team, with one seventy. Tampa Bay's next at one sixty seven and Arizona's next

at one fifty seven. What's Buffalo? Buffalo is at one thirty the first game miss, but they've only given up forty four points forty four in five games. They haven't seen us yet, that's right. Not not until February. Yea, oh February. Let's not get ahead. It's only four months away. We can get ahead. Long's okay, Bill's got that cart way ahead, right. I'm in Bill's card too. I'm in the backseat, all right. And we continue with more mix

shots tomorrow at one thirty. Go Cowboys. This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
