Speaker 1 (00:00):
Wanted.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
Do you get to a little more from Cowboys owner,
president and general manager Jerry Jones. Now, this, you know,
all comes in the aftermath of the loss to the
Cincinnati Bengals last night, the Monday night football loss, which
you know was most unfortunate. I think a way to
(00:21):
describe how it ended up. When it looked like the
Cowboys were going to be teed up to have a
real chance to win it. They were forcing Cincinnati to
pun him fourth in twenty seven. There was right around
two minutes to go in the game. They blocked the punt,
but unfortunately is it skipped forward, It goes across a
(00:41):
lot of scrimmage, and then Imani Warria as he's he's
clearly not accidentally touching it. He's making a play to
try to field the ball and a hop. And that's
why I say, I can believe that he was trying
to field it and do like kind of like a
scoop and score and take it back to distance. I
(01:01):
get where he's going with that. It's just that's a
risk reward thing. You have to you better be sure
you get it because it's a live ball. After across
the lot of scurrents, Whether you realized that or not.
I think he probably did know it, but I think
he was still aggressively trying to make the play.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
And that's like a dog seaball take ball. Yeah, yeah,
and it's just you see I football.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Coming towards you. Your your natural instinct is to try
and grab it.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
And he also was activated for that game, right, Is
that what I understand?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Yeah, he was. But he's played in the past. I
remember his name.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
He's played in the secondary, so it's not like he's
a complete unknown or something.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Anyway, it was it was very difficult.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Also difficult was the loss of Demarve and Overshown, who
tore the ACL and has left kne last year early
in fall camp or training camp and then had what
an ACL, a PCL and an MCL. Men he had
the triple crown last night when he went down. Jerry Jones,
we heard earlier talk about how bad the injury update was,
(02:00):
and he was asked about his relationship with Demo and
what he's meant in the locker room of the team.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I've heard Mike by his coaches. I've heard adjectives like
Michael has genius, he's he's a rare rare athlete, rare
person really, and he really has quite a range of
(02:30):
of just living life. And so he's not only a
gifted may be his gift to the athlete as I've
been around personally, but more importantly, he's also got quite
a range memory. Uh, he does a lot of just
really rare things. And it doesn't surprise me at all
(02:53):
that he could have an emotional swim in to the
bottom the way he did after that ball after really
given a big accounting. He was a real factor in
that ball game to have us in a position to
a win.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
It so tough there, and so because they didn't win it,
they've dropped to five and eight. I think what was
the ESPNFPI index had it as a zero point two
percent chance of making the playoffs zero point two. So
question Jerry, as the playoff door now closed.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Well, I know that we needed to win the game
to really to really have what I would call a
a really went out get better chance to get in
the playoffs. And then we had to have some things
(03:54):
happened for us. That was set back last night. That
was a hard one. Real have to circle of wagons
here and get out here and get ready to play Carolina,
who gave Kaanas City all they wanted last week. So
bottom line is that this is the life.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
We've chosen, Jerry, is the life you've chosen, Jerry.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
It is speaking of choosing, was Jerry and Kline to
see about Mike McCarthy giving Trey Lance some more playing
time now that Cooper Rush is continuing the show. He's
not the best option for you.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
There got all of the you got it, Pegg, you
were correct and how you looked at all the things
to consider here. But wins are important for us, very
important for us. This is a young team, Cooper, we
think gives us our best chance. We want to look
(05:00):
at everything about last night and make sure the tale
of the tape, so to speak, keeps us in the
same mode. But it's very important to go down in
beat Caro Lader for this team next year and the
next year. And we've got a lot of young players
(05:21):
out here that we want to get that experience. And
so you have to consider that when you consider just
if you will evaluating at such a critical position the
quarterback we're both talking.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
About, all right, So there it is.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
I don't know how you feel about this, and I'm
not just funning around with your fandom or lack of
fandom or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
The Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Cooper Rush has just never done it for me. I mean,
I know that one magical Sunday night gamings, the Vikings.
I just don't. I don't see the dynamism that you
need from a quarterback out of him to do it.
Not to say Trey Lance has it, I don't know
that he does. Forty nine ers obviously gave up on
him early enough. But I guess I don't know what
(06:13):
the answer is. Like so many others, there is no answer.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Cooper Rush, Trey Lance, Steven Jones's grandson, does not matter
who's a quarterback for the Cowboys, I'll tell you that much.
Even even when Dak Prescott, you saw how bad this
team was.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Yeah no, dou Dak by the way, expecting a second child.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Good for him. Yeah yeah, congratulations at the code of Prescott.
Yeah right.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
We'll be back to wrap up today's program on sport
Trado AM thirteen under the Zone.
