00:00Yeah.
00:16So he's double teamed at a rate more than double of TJ Watt.
00:22And he is the he's never the benefactor of a holding call.
00:25I got to know what else like I would say I would say that's how it fans are butthurt
00:29because he didn't get any sacks against San Fran and he didn't have a great game against
00:33Green Bay.
00:34Yes.
00:35Okay.
00:36Because he he is the perfect symbol for what the team is.
00:39They can just dominate crap teams.
00:42Dak looks phenomenal.
00:43Mike is getting three sacks versus the Giants.
00:45Cool, man.
00:46When you go up against a playoff opponent, what do you do?
00:49What do you do?
00:50But I.
00:53It doesn't matter.
00:54Donald is making Super Bowl winning plays like in the biggest moment.
00:58Hey, watch this.
00:59I'm that guy.
01:00No problem.
01:01Here we go.
01:02I'll win your game.
01:03Von Miller.
01:04I'll be a Super Bowl MVP because I will be the best player when it matters.
01:07And Micah and the entire Cowboys team when it matters just doesn't that he's he's either
01:12got flaws in his game that good teams can expose or just take him out of a game or late
01:17in the season.
01:18There's a there's some physical elements that he's just kind of fading off a little bit.
01:23Either way, like you just that's where the entire team is right now, from Dak on down.
01:28No one cares that you got three sacks versus the Giants.
01:32No one cares, Dak, that you threw for 400 yards and four touchdowns against a crappy
01:36team in your division or another crap team that's not going to sniff the playoffs.
01:40But when you go up against a respectable playoff type opponent, you go to Buffalo and you get
01:45smacked.
01:46You don't even have a chance.
01:47You don't.
01:48You go to San Francisco.
01:49No, I'm just saying Micah is supposed to be one of your best players and he's disappearing
01:53when it matters.
01:55So I understand you're not number one in the spot of a choker.
01:57You're calling him a choker.
01:58I can't I can't get down with that.
01:59The entire team is, though, it's a contagious thing.
02:02The entire.
02:03OK.
02:04It's I don't think it's contagious.
02:05It's contagious.
02:06Yeah, absolutely.
02:07What's the what's the big what's the big moment that T.J.
02:08Watt has elevated his team or is overrated?
02:10I'm not arguing on behalf of T.J.
02:12Watt.
02:13I'm just arguing on Gary.
02:14Give me the give me the Miles Garrett seminal moment in his career that made him Von Miller.
02:17I just don't think either one of those guys have narratives where every time you go up
02:20against a good team or a playoff type situation, you're just disappearing.
02:24And that's the entire.
02:25Yeah, because they're never in.
02:26They're never in a position like that.
02:27T.J.
02:28Watt's never in a big game.
02:29Well, I mean, wasn't that the whole reason that the Steelers are the they never win.
02:34They win nine games a year.
02:36They they beat the playoffs every now and then to that.
02:38They beat the playoffs.
02:39They never win a playoff game.
02:41Not lately, at least.
02:43What's his big moment?
02:44Why can't he get his team over the hump?
02:45So Mike has to has to carry that torch, that he's the guy that disappears, didn't disappear.
02:50I think the.
