[Chuck 54]

Interesting coaching and advice from the Playmaker.

Sorry if already posted...I checked the most recent two pages.

That's some good stuff. If that doesn't show how much talent Stanback has, I don't know what will.

It also shows just how technically precise NFL players have to be.

That video also shows how effective Irvin can be when he speaks in a conversational tone about a serious matter.

I dont know if its out there yet but... I would love to hear from MI and HIS CLEAR/HONEST view of what we REALLY have at WR?

Who does he see as a lock? Besides TO and Crayton?

Really an awesome video. Thanks WM.

 

[Achozen]

I love Michael.

Amen to that...Irvin sounds like an entirely different guy from his days on TV. Either he's been working at it, or it just shows how smooth he can be when he's actually talking about something he knows and loves instead of trying to play the network game for ratings on Sundays.

Nice video. Still shows me that he is not ready though. Like Irvin said. He just didnt get those reps in college and is behind the 8 ball.

This is a really good segment...and I think people should really watch it if they want a peek at Stanback's football prowess.

~And I also want to thank Wayne for posting this vid just for the yumminess of Stanback~

Nice vid.

Is anyone else sick of those stupid draft hat commercials?

 

[CrazyCowboy]

now that vid was very good--thanks

Its great to see som of the ex Cowboys like Michael, E Williams, Emmitt and Deion coming out to help the young guys improve.

 

[InmanRoshi]

Good point by Mike that it's about reps. People who pull their hair out because someone who's a converted quarterback or someone who's coming from Monmouth University aren't tearing up the league by their 2nd or 3rd year in the NFL like they came from 3 or 4 years of playing WR at USC just don't get it.

 

[Chuck 54]

What I like best about it is Mike's pro-active advice to Stanback.

Essentially, You have tremendous talent, but that's not enough. You don't have the reps that other receivers got in college, and you aren't going to get them in practice because the team has to get the starters ready to play. It's your responsibility to get those reps after practice on the field, and it's your responsibility to ask the QB and the DB's to stay after with you so you can get the work you need to get to where you want to be and be all that your talent says you could be.

 

[Hostile]

I thoroughly enjoyed that.

 

[Clove]

Michael= My favorite Cowboy of All time.

Anyone who watched his Hall of Fame speech knows the man can speak when coming from the heart and from wha the knows. 40 minutes, perfect, with no notes.

I think he tried too hard to try and learn it all and it hurt his broadcasting career. He'll be back.

She's not in California, and yet the earth moved ...

 

[DallasEast]

I can only guess how successful Stanback's career may end up being, but if he fails, it will not be due to bad or lame advice. Just how insane is it to have a Hall of Famer giving you one-on-one tips on improving your level of play..? HUH???
