00:00What do you currently make of Mike McCarthy's situation, Bayer's interview not happening,
00:22him and Jerry sitting down, deciding what's going to happen, what do you make of where
00:26we are currently with McCarthy?
00:27I thought it was hilarious that Jerry said on Sunday, go talk.
00:33I want people who want to be here.
00:35And then when it's time to go talk, no talk, can't go.
00:38And I, did you think they were going to let him interview?
00:43I wasn't sure.
00:44And look, it's an indication that they, not that they necessarily want to keep him, but
00:48I think they want to be able to negotiate with him without McCarthy knowing what's behind
00:54door number two.
00:55If you can't talk to the Bears or anyone else for that matter, they still got exclusive
01:01negotiating ability.
01:03They can try to get him for the best possible contract without him knowing.
01:08And there's still ways calls can be made and winks and nods.
01:11And that happens sometimes.
01:13Some teams will do it.
01:14Some teams won't, but it preserves the Cowboys ability to have his full focus and they have
01:21full leverage as they try to work this out.
01:24But look, whatever happens, the one thing I'm certain of, they're going to leak it and
01:29or announce it during the Eagles playoff.
01:32They did it last time with Garrett.
01:37They leaked it during the Seahawks Eagles playoff game five years ago.
