just continuing to get better you got crop you know you got a handful of guys that just keep keep chipping away they keep building keep coming to practice every day with the right attitude right mindset and so it's special to see them grow and then like I say uh it's it's good to work off of them uh use their use their work as my work and continue to grow and continue to find ways to add to my game or you know maybe build off of what they've done and vice versa so uh it's special to be in a be in a group like that you now you made the change from number 18 to number one this past off season what was the reasoning behind that and then also what's your number one goal going into the year uh the reasoning behind it uh always wanted a single digit and then uh one came open so uh it just reminds me you know just find a way to get 1% better every day uh and I keep I always tell myself be one of one whatever I can do to be one of one do it and uh uh my goal for this whatever it may

Cowboys players sideline interview brought to you by LG OLED Evo choose Perfection choose LG OLED Evo check out the best TV in the game at lg.com Jaylen Cropper deep to return the punt Cowboy defense comes through with pressure on Easton stick forcing the punt here and the Cowboys will have an opportunity with just over five minutes to play in this game you know who came up with a big play on that last that last series there Darius Harris bill again again Darius Harris wants to take that defensive player the game award away from Julius wood apparently the way he's played he heard you uhhuh and calling for the fair catch at the 8 yd line is Jaylen Cropper so Trey Lance and the Cowboys 92 yds away from the end zone when we come back by the Texas Lottery making this Cowboys preseason football telecast accessible to everyone regardless of hearing abilities Cowboy scratch tickets are here play today just over five minutes to go here in the Cowboys preseason against the Los Angeles Chargers Bill Jones with Isaiah stanach and we've got Kyle yolman on the sideline whatever player wants to join Kyle as well a great hearing from moment ago M Parsons earlier and Dak Prescott story is Trey Lance right now starting at his own eight yd line not much Running Room the Cowboys start this drive Drive Isaiah 92 yd away from the end zone but down one point actually they only have to get to the 50 yd why is that bill because of there we go 5 yard penalty added to the end of the Run automatic first down automatic first down there they only need to get to the 50 yd line because Brandon Aubrey you're down one all you need is a field goal and if you get to the 50 Brandon auy can knock it home from 68 and you went go home happy right we need to come up with a nickname for brenon Aubrey he need I mean we I don't know what what it's going to be but got whistles down officials timeout they're taking the officials time out on the field but these coaches are going to be continuing to go at it head-to-head this is situational football for them they are not ready to just take this run a clock off they use this as opportunity for practice for when their starters com to 10 seconds and it'll start I think we just uh what if the chain breaks on the Chain Gang that that was what we just did right there G brought to you by AT&T the official 5G Innovation partner of the Dallas Cowboys that's when you go to the virtual measurement system yes sir saying this is situational football for both of these coaches right now they want to see what their team can come out with one deep down the sideline again this time looking for cam Johnson goes incomplete taking that shot deep on after getting the first down at the 15 obviously that pass out of bounds stops the clock Cowboys are down by one they don't need a big play they honestly could use this drive to run the clock out as long as as they get across the what Bill well the he he kicked a 66 y last week so I think they're in field goal range once they get past the 50 yeah it's been proven it's a proven fact it is proven So Daniel Pete on the carry there so as long as the Cowboys are able to continue to run the ball effectively on the ground they have a six-yard average right now so they can run this ball out what we call 4minute offense oppos a 2 minute you're not trying to go fast you're actually trying to take time off the clock as long as you're moving progressing down the field find yourself in a in a field goal position and the plan is to kick the field goal for the victory with no time left on the clock there you go you got to convert here on third and four uhoh intercepted and headed the other way into the end zone for the touchdown and that is Treman Morris Brash with the pick six that was not in the game plan that was not four-minute offense Bill wow traymon Brash comes up with the interception Trey Lance is looking to his right and stays looking at his right the defensive end drops out good defensive play call by Jim Harbaugh there as a quarterback you come to the line of scrimmage and you're surveying the defensive backs you're surveying the linebackers but when they drop a defensive linan out that's the one person you did not account for and what you thought you were going to get defensively he just happens to be right there in the throwing Lane he must have been on the J machine as well cuz he caught that thing right from Tre LS traymon Morris Brash will keep there is no reading go up there see color hit color bring color down really good job wrap the hips drive your legs make sure he goes backwards keeps it a seven-point game so now with 4 minutes and 14 seconds left the Dallas Cowboys will get the ball back not only can they go in tie bill but being down only seven points they can actually go for the win which if they get a two-point conversion now this from Globe Life [Music] 31-year-old Damen Wilson makes the play on the two-point conversion trying to win a spot on this Cowboys roster it's two weeks from Tomorrow the Cowboys open the season at the Cleveland Browns a 325 kickoff then back here to host New Orleans and Baltimore then a Thursday night game at the New York Giants followed by a game at Pittsburgh that's your start to the season at the bye coming after six games it's imperative for the te Cowboys to get off to a strong start to this season of course Mike McCarthy in the final year of his contract many of the coaches on this team the quarterbacks as well including Dak Prescott the final year of their contract and uh it's going to be fun to see what happens once the regular season starts in two weeks Isaiah yeah Cleveland Browns to open it up those guys are obviously a solid outfit uh Mike Zimmer obviously will be going against deshun Watson and his committee on that side of the ball and then you flip it all right then obviously you have a Tyler giden versus a miles Garrett for his Ricky Premiere in the leag yeah it's it's a tall order for the rookie out of Oklahoma it's going to be fun to watch though as the Cowboys uh there it is there's your matchup welcome to the league Tyler gon first round pick and of course miles Garrett from right here in Arlington went to Martin High School and 2023 defensive player of the year five-time Pro Bowl selection so that'll be the emphasis going into that week we all know that but uh the way the Cowboys have come together as a team and I I really like the makeup of this team now coming out of training camp more so than going into training camp with the Improvement that they made and the additions to the roster and so for they made tremendous strides and shout out to this entire front office will mlay and his entire scouting Department you know seemingly is always looking for the Big Splash and free agency but but they always do a really good job in terms of filling the holes in this roster not always the way the way the way the fans want it to happen but they always fill the void and make sure they put a competitive team out there how about the this is the NFC East last year of course the Cowboys win the division it's been now 20 years since we've had a repeat winner in the NFC East going all the way back to 2004 and um the Cowboys and the Eagles a lot of people think it's a battle between those two but I know Isaiah you like uh what the Washington has done of course they have Jaden Daniels at quarterback and you look at it as a wide openen race it's going to be a very competitive NFC East this year no doubt about it the Cowboys are always taking care of business and putting themselves at the top of that list but it's not going to be easy not by any means Philadelphia continues to find ways to improve their roster we all know the impact that Dan Quinn has on the culture of a team so he'll turn that a complete 180 out there in Washington you never know what you're going to get with the Giants but the the I'm sure they'll put out a good outfit as well we're under four minutes to play here and Tre Lance and the Cowboys down a touchdown and Tre Lance gets out of bounds has the first down using his feet again his Lance is up around 90 yds rushing on the afternoon now gets the first down and stops the clock you don't have to use your your timeouts obviously Dallas has three to have a few to spare there but why use it if you don't have to good play by Tre Lance just moving the chains 11 carries for 90 yards D Prescott and Cooper Rush quarterbacks one and two on the roster Jerry Jones did say this week that uh Trey Lance will be on the 53 but he wanted to see more of them he's getting an opportunity in this game to do that brevan span Ford the tight end out of Minnesota with a catch BR span for you haven't heard His Name a lot in this preseason but I got to tell you he had a really good training camp the coaches love him so much so they gave him a pocket full of money and free agency to make sure that he came to Dallas so he's somebody that you have to keep an eye out for as they continue to solidify this roster on Tuesday um he's a big big fell 67 what 250 lbs somewhere around 260 no disrespect there but um they I know that Linda Wells tight ends coach loves him and what he can bring to the table again just another one of those guys who hasn't had opportunity to show what he's capable of in these games short completion there and that's to Alec holler another one of those tight ends a college free agent out of Central Florida Central Florida making an impact on this game yeah they are again another positive play know it's not the most exciting thing in the world but guess what the chains are moving in the right direction find yourself in a third and short situation the entire Playbook is open when you have this down in distance CL down to around 220 to play now third down play Under Pressure [Applause] fires downfield 50/50 ball and the Chargers come up with it and that is Matt henkins out of Iowa and Flower Mound Marcus High School right here in the Metroplex and Chargers brought more pressure again in a third and short situation they don't want to give Tre Lance opportunity to use his leg so they bring pressure Trey gives his man cam Johnson a chance he puts the ball right on his forehead he just gets out wrestled for the ball you'd like to see him come down with that opportunity but Matt hankin said nah I'm going to take this one that's not on TR receivers 6571 he show up that way in the stat line but he gave his man just as much as an opportunity to make a play as the Chargers that was a third down play Matt henkins with the interception coached by the great Jerry Stanford who's now at Tex Arana High School a big moment for him back home timeout Los [Applause] Angeles Cowboys hoping for an opportunity to get the fo football back today's sky cam brought to you by Lenovo smarter technology for all deal what game stands out to you on that schedule in that first five games Baltimore here yeah the third week of the season and the way I look at it too those first five games three of the first five are on the road at Cleveland then home against New Orleans and Baltimore and then a Thursday night game at the Giants and then at Pittsburgh and then you get Detroit here and you look at the next five Detroit San Francisco at Atlanta Philadelphia and Houston that's a tough stretch right there really tough stretch really need to get off to a strong start and Detroit doesn't feel any type of way about coming back here do they no no why would they have idiots today [Applause] Cowboys taking another timeout with 207 to play make everyday game day with the new Dallas Cowboy scratch tickets from the Texas Lottery play today for your chance to win season tickets VIP experiences and more [Music] you know that guy's just itching for two weeks from Tomorrow 15 days away michah Parsons TOS left Jared Patterson CYS having Coral big hit Tyrus wheat Tyrus wheat with 204 left stopped the clock again [Applause] told you we talk about the situational football these coaches do not want this clock to run out they are using every opportunity to get better as coaches right now keeping it on one side of the two minute app so you guys can see me third down and 12 Easton stick has gone all the way at quarterback and deep downfield looking for Cornelius Johnson and it goes incomplete defending and with 159 to play two-minute warning time Cowboys look like they'll get one more [Music] chance no doubt about this one from a Cowboys perspective it's Trey Lance 46 yds to the end zone this play of the game brought to you by WinStar World Casino and Resort proud to be the casino of the Dallas Cowboys please game responsibly have some Wheels man that was the best moment of the day for Tre Lance of course he had a touchdown pass to but there's been four picks as well in this game Cowboys also coughed it up on a fumble Bill he can come out on this drive and totally redeem himself not over from the 10 yd line fair catch called for by Spa so 90 yds away one last chance for Trey Lance here in the preseason and by the way there is no overtime in the preseason so you might as well when you score this touchdown you might as well go for it backed up on your own 10 yard line they've been back there a few times today that's right field position has not been good for the Cowboys all day long this is where the competitor comes out Tre Lance has to fight the urge to want to beat the Skeptics by sitting in the pocket if you have to use your legs use your legs and there's brevan span for right up at the 20 yd line they'll move the six Cowboys hav one timeout left according to the scoreboard on the 21 Y Line and cam Johnson out of bounds you know the first team offense Dak Prescott and Trey Lance is having his opportunity to show that he's capable of converting on these as well and over the middle brev span Ford as a first down hold on to the football 44 yd line that's a big man right there and the biggest difference too for the out there right now with a third string quarterback is the number of reps they've gotten in the two-minute offense is about yeah slim to n9th of what the first team has got and there's nobody coming to get you to give you a breath from the sideline unless you get in goes incomplete let's go down to the sideline and Kyle yman Kyle standing right in front of me at that last part I don't know if you guys heard the first part of that but Dak Prescott was just standing in front of me a moment ago he looked right back and he said he's winning it talking about Trey Lance and the confidence that he has in this moment in a two-minute drill to drive down the field all right Isaiah stanback said he he looked at me and said he's winning it too so he's having a really good drive right now they're already on opposite side of the 50 yd line with 40 seconds left and timeout in their pocket now you don't want to waste too much time here get the guys at the line of scrimmage get the next play off third and three over the middle and Alec holler moved the chains again and timeout called that's the Cowboys last timeout with 27 seconds left oh it's getting good bill I told you these coaches are going ahead there's just an uncovered route here in the slot right they vac the hole you give it to him right there no need to sit back drop back go through your reads if he's open now give him the ball now get as many yards as you can get down so we can get this timeout call stop the clock now you have 27 seconds left no timeouts right but you're on the 30 Y Line 34 y4 yd line so look for the offense to try to work the sideline a little bit they're going to try to run some Corner routes most likely so you can catch the ball and get out of bounds the last thing you want to do is catch the ball and be inside inbounds because the clock keeps running from the 34 yd line and in trouble gets away now he'll throw it downfield and it's complete inbounds inside the 20 yd line to Snoop Conor got to spike it got to spike it gets to the line of scrimmage and Spike 13 seconds 11 10 and Spike it at 7 seconds left nope you got enough time for two plays here okay if you're going to have a chance to catch the ball out of the shotgun take a shot at the end zone but understanding that the defense knows that as well so what are they going to do they're going to drop back in coverage and give up any play underneath okay A lot of times you'll come out again we might see it here where the Defenders will put their heels along the goal line all the defensive backs will literally put their heels at the goal line and say hey anything in front of me is a win don't allow anybody behind me 7 seconds left from the Y Line you see how far off the defensive backs are playing right now whistle before the snap Los Angeles that is your second charge time out of a half 30 second timeout now they might have saw exactly what I was just talking about Bill right typically teams like to line up with their heels on the goal line so that they can keep everything in front of them they were not that far back so Jim Harbaugh might have saw it and say whoa whoa whoa you guys are playing too close to the line of scrimmage somebody can get behind you for the touchdown and ultimately put you in a situation where you might lose the ball game Mike McCarthy Brian shoten Heimer Scott tozen again tolzin the quarterback coach has been calling plays throughout the day Cowboys Brain Trust though coming up with the plan here TR cannot hold the ball here he has to be very decisive with whatever he decides to do decision has to be made quickly they're going to get free releases they're going to back up and let these guys run off the line of scrimmage quickly down towards the end zone and it's picked off in the end zone and he had his man he had his man wide open right there cam Johnson it was just a he was looking for a hole into what we call a cover for defense right across the middle here and the hole is right there that's the hole just a bad ball by Trey Lance they had it matth up the way they wanted to had the right route against the right coverage bad execution he'll learn from it and it's Robert Kennedy who had the interception in the end zone the rookie college free agent out of North Carolina State Cowboys were in position that'll do it the Chargers walk away with a win
