8
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: episode number thirty three. Welcome to new edition of The

9
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: Break Lafness WBC Mortgage Studios. We've got a lot to

10
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: get into today. We've got results from Zeke Elliot's appeal

11
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: that came down yesterday. We'll talk about that. We'll talk

12
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,919
Speaker 1: about Morris to what's to come for Ezekiel Eliot. We'll

13
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: also get into Cowboys versus Giants Today. We're gonna talk

14
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: about the Giants offense and some of the things Cowboys

15
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: are gonna have to face defensively and trying to stop

16
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: Eli Manning and crew. But before we get to that,

17
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: how's everybody doing this morning? What you're doing? Good? Good?

18
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: Everybody is doing good, very good. All right, let's jump

19
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: right in. Let's talk about Ezekuel Elliott yesterday. The word

20
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 1: comes down yesterday evening that the appeal to Harold Henderson

21
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: was denied. And so the thing that came out of

22
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 1: that that was most interesting I thought was, and we

23
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: talked a little bit about this on the show yesterday,

24
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: it seems as though, even though there isn't a written

25
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,839
Speaker 1: rule that if they don't have something to the teams

26
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 1: about these suspensions on Tuesday by Tuesday afternoon that they

27
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: would that it would it wouldn't affect that week's game.

28
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: Sounds like it did affect this week's game. And because

29
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: of that, even though the appeal was denied, Ezekuel Elliott

30
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: will still be able to play this weekend versus the Giants,

31
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: and then presumably the suspension would start next week. Now

32
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: that's all pending. Also, this thing that's going to happen

33
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: this Friday, Dave, what do you know about I guess

34
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: at this point, what do you know about what's going

35
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: to happen Friday and how that could affect Ezekiel going

36
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: forward beyond just this week? As far as I understand it,

37
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: it's everything. I mean, Amos Mazan is going to rule

38
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: on this temporary restraining order injunction I think those are

39
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: the same thing. I didn't go to law school, but

40
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 1: it's basically it's a stay. It's a stay of the suspension.

41
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: He's going to rule on whether it has merit. If

42
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: he rules in Zeke's favor, then the suspension is stayed

43
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: while this whole thing gets sorted out in court, which,

44
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: if I had to guess, we'll take a long time.

45
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: And it gives him a very good shot of being

46
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,239
Speaker 1: available for the whole season, if not at least for

47
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: the foreseeable future. If he rules against Zeke, then he's

48
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: suspended after I would imagine Monday morning, right after the

49
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: Giants game, and he'll serve it weeks two through probably eight,

50
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: because I think there's a bye week in there somewhere.

51
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: So you got you start with Denver, and I think

52
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: he'd be due to come back the week at the Redskins,

53
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: the Redskins game, I think, which would at the Redskins. Yes,

54
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: so you trade a division game for another division game.

55
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Basically you lose him for the Redskins, but gain him

56
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: for the Giants or maybe preferable. Well yeah, I mean

57
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: so that seems to be the harder of those two games,

58
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: but who knows. I feel I mean, that's another conversation,

59
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: but I feel like people don't aren't giving the Redskins

60
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: a lot of credit this year, well relative to the Giants. Anyway,

61
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: we'll get into that that Giants discussion. Nick. I know

62
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: yesterday you mentioned you were talking about your expectations for

63
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: the appeal, and so I wonder were you Were you surprised,

64
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: I know you thought that you would gets decreased. Were

65
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: you surprised like it won't be decreased at all? It

66
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: sounds like now it's it's it's either going to be

67
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: six or zero. There's no chance to I don't it's six.

68
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a zero. The only way with

69
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: Zeros if he wins in court rights which point right,

70
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: which and which I guess when that would be served? Though,

71
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: I guess that's my point. I'm sorry, you're right, but

72
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: if it's gonna be next year or though if that,

73
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: if he wins in court, you know what I'm saying.

74
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I think something that's getting overlooked here is

75
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: the fact that I don't know if it's just the

76
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: Tuesday deadline, I think also Saturday's deadline is important too

77
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: for the league. I mean because most players that are

78
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: suspended go straight to that list, and the Cowboys they

79
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: didn't have to cut anybody for David Irving or Demontre Moore,

80
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: so they had to cut someone for Ezekiel Elliott. So

81
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: if you're going to come back and say, all right,

82
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: now he is suspended, you had to make roster moves

83
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: for that. They don't know that Andy Jones wasn't a

84
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: player that they wanted to keep and had to cut,

85
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: and now the Texans have I mean, they don't know

86
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: all that. They made a roster move because of it

87
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: and now they had to change it. So that I

88
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: think factored into this week as well. I think that,

89
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: I mean, they didn't have to do that. I think

90
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: it was. It's weird to say, because this whole thing

91
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: has been incredibly contentious, but it was basically a show

92
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: of good faith, like, hey, you know, we didn't really

93
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: get this to you. You in a manner that is

94
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: in keeping with competitive advantage and your roster needs and

95
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,559
Speaker 1: all that. You had to keep this guy on the team.

96
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: So they're letting him play for a game, which, honestly,

97
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit surprised. Like I said, this whole

98
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: thing has been incredibly contentious. I figured they yank him

99
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: out of there so amber looking at all this stuff

100
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: and everything that's time. I'm just saying out of the

101
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: conversation just because I think this thing has been such

102
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: a big mess since the beginning, and it's so hard

103
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: for me to form an opinion on everything that's going on,

104
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: just because I really don't understand all the facts. I mean,

105
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: it's been pretty confusing the whole process of it. And

106
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: aside from that, I still till this point don't know

107
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: what's true and what isn't. So it's hard for me

108
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: to argue, like, yeah, should they reduce the suspension take

109
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 1: it off or not. Yeah, the process of the whole

110
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: thing has been terrible and that is something that the

111
00:05:54,880 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: NFL should fix and that's something that you should battle against.

112
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 1: But at the same time, aside from all that, given

113
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,239
Speaker 1: the fact that the reason of the suspension, I still

114
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: don't know how much of it is true or not,

115
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: So I'm just staying out of it. Let's see what happens.

116
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: Good for staying out of it. Don't you know that

117
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: you're supposed to shoot from the hip and worry about

118
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 1: whether or not you have it right later? I mean,

119
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: that's the right way this goes in twenty seventeen. Right,

120
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: It's cool to be speculated. Oh this might have and

121
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: this might not. But I'm just tired of it. I'm

122
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: just ready for the whole thing to end and come

123
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,919
Speaker 1: to a conclusion, which doesn't seem like that will be

124
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: the case. It's you know, it's like it's going to

125
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: be taking a longer time. Yeah, you know. It's interesting

126
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 1: about that opinion that you just gave. Is I think

127
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: that probably is about nine fans out there, and I

128
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: think that's really the issue for the NFL is they've

129
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: created this secondary court essentially. But the secondary court is

130
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: not what we know of an American justice system. It's

131
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: not based upon necessarily rules of what's proper, what's right,

132
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: what's just. It's based upon precedence, it's not based upon

133
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: anything more than basically comes down to one man's judgment,

134
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: one man's judgment as to what's best for the league.

135
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: And that doesn't even have anything necessarily to do with

136
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: whether there are there's there's corroborating evidence that this is

137
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: true or this is true. It's I look at all

138
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: the facts, I look at all the evidence, I look

139
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: at all the things I think, and then I, as

140
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: a single person, being the commissioner, make a decision, and

141
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: I think it leaves fans like, like what you just expressed.

142
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: I think it leaves fans in a situation where they

143
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: don't understand the process, they don't understand the facts, and

144
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: they just feel like, what's going on here? I can't

145
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: understand what's going on with this whole situation. I'm sorry,

146
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Oh, I was just gonna say, even if

147
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: the facts and the evidence it's all there, let's say

148
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: he should deserve the suspension. Even if that was the case,

149
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: it's still hard something. It's still something hard to argue

150
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: with when the process it's completely messed up, so it's

151
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: like one thing against the other, and you just don't

152
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: know obviously whether the evidence, like if it does deserve

153
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: the suspension, I don't know. But if he does, I

154
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: mean he should get it. But at the same time,

155
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: it's the process is so messed up that it's just

156
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: a hard argument. How does the NBA and MLB avoid this,

157
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: Because I mean, I know that they've got six hundred

158
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: two thousand guys in their league. They're definitely not all angels.

159
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: They definitely all they definitely guys in those leagues get

160
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: in legal trouble. But and maybe it's because I'm not

161
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: what neck deep in it like I am with the NFL,

162
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: but just don't doesn't seem like they have to deal

163
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: with this where like literally every year in the NFL

164
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: there is a situation like this where a fan base

165
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: or a player is fighting the league about something arbitrary.

166
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's Zeke right now, it's it was Tom Brady, yeah,

167
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: I mean it's just every year, Like I said, I

168
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: think you can go back and find an example where

169
00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: there's this like contentious court situation where nobody really understands

170
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: what's going on, and it kind of just maybe maybe

171
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,439
Speaker 1: maybe that's their answer, right there, is what Derek was

172
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: just saying. Maybe that you know, Adam Silver just kind

173
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 1: of he's a commissioner of the NBA. He doesn't really

174
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: try to be sheriff of like the the league as well.

175
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 1: I mean that that might be part of it, But

176
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, I think I think if you're the Giants,

177
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: they have a right to be frustrated with this as well.

178
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is one of the star

179
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: players of the league that's going to play in this

180
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: game because they didn't get their stuff together for a

181
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: few days. They missed it by a few days, so

182
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: thirteen months that they waited on this. Then I think

183
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 1: they tried to just kind of throw it in there

184
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 1: and say okay, and then that maybe the Cowboys would

185
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: back down, or the ze Zeke would back down, and

186
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: maybe they would try to appeel it and get it

187
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: reduced whatever. But he took it to a higher court,

188
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: and it's going to take it to even higher one.

189
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: And now, I mean because of all this that the

190
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: Giants are the ones that, you know, they have to

191
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: face this this player. And I don't if he's gonna

192
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: I don't know how great he's gonna be or good

193
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: he's gonna be. But it's just kind of a weird

194
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: situation that came down to a couple of days. Well,

195
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: they had so much time to do this. Dam they

196
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: want to play him anyway. That's what land That's what

197
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: Landon Collins said yesterday. He's wrong. I mean, he's lying.

198
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to play You don't want to play

199
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: Zeke over over, you know, Darren McFadden and Alfred Morris.

200
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: I bet I think Ben McAdoo probably feels that way.

201
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: But I bet Landon Collins wants to play him like

202
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: when you're like that, when you're that dude. Damon Harrison

203
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: wants to stuff Zeke like he doesn't want to stuff Darren.

204
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: To be honestly, I think they probably look at it, well,

205
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: we've stopped him before, we think we can stop him again. Okay,

206
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: you're Orlando Skendrick, you want thirteen or not? Probably not.

207
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know that the Cowboys have a

208
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: defensive back on par with Landon Collins or gen Norris

209
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: Jenkins for that matter, So well, yeah, that's but no,

210
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: I mean I'm joking around. I know. It's just like

211
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: when you're a competitor at that level, you probably they

212
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: probably do want thirteen. Scandrick would never tell you that

213
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 1: he doesn't want thirteen, And to be honest with you,

214
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: I think I kind of would believe him that he's

215
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: okay with the idea of going out and covering Beckham

216
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: and even if he gets beats some plays, he feels like,

217
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: I'll hold own I'll win my fair share as well.

218
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: I don't think he's I don't think NFL players buying

219
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: large are afraid of the competence. That's the scary part though,

220
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: holding your own and maybe give up a player. Two.

221
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: That was Brandon Car's game against Beckham last year. He

222
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: had a really nice game against them, but they he

223
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: gave up a slant over the middle. I think Church

224
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: or Wilcox or one of the two didn't didn't do

225
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 1: their job touchdown and that was the difference in the game.

226
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: So you know, these games are so close that you

227
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: know you can't just it's just one or two players

228
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: here and there could change everything. Let's jump right in.

229
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Cowboys versus Giants. We're gonna talk about

230
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: this Giants offense, and I guess let's start with the quarterback.

231
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: Last year when the Cowboys played at the Giants, Eli

232
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: had pretty much almost exactly statistically the same day. In

233
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: both those two games. He was nineteen for twenty eight

234
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: hundred and seven yards, three touchdowns, an interception in the

235
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: first game, and then seventeen to twenty eight one hundred

236
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: ninety three yards, a touchdown, an interception in the second game.

237
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: Nothing that was spectacular from a statistical standpoint, but enough

238
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: to win. He got gave his team in the end

239
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,599
Speaker 1: zone three times in the first game, got him in

240
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: the end zone one time in the second game. Um,

241
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: what was there anything that stood out in that game

242
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: that you can remember back that you thought that he

243
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: did particularly well or didn't do particularly well against the Cowboys. Well,

244
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: he's he gets the ball out quickly. And so, I mean,

245
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: I know later on we're gonna talk about their offensive line,

246
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,839
Speaker 1: and I think that's one of the ways that they

247
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: get past having a line that's not so good is

248
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: because he doesn't he doesn't sit there and hold the

249
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: ball for very long. And you have to have quick,

250
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: speedy receivers or strong receivers to do that. And so

251
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: that they've kind of surrounded himself with with some really

252
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: good playmakers, both young and old. I guess if you'd

253
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,479
Speaker 1: say Brandon Marshall's old but um my NFL standard, but yeah,

254
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: but very productive and so and so I think that

255
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: he's got good weapons around him. He gets the ball

256
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: out quick. Um, he's never been the most mobile, but

257
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: sure does play every game. I Mean, you can say

258
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: what you want about a dumb faces and the you know,

259
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: whatever they call it, but he's tough. You know, he's

260
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: stuff as nails because he doesn't ever miss games. Yeah,

261
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: and he's not like he's avoiding a lot of big hits.

262
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: You mentioned that offensive line. That offensive line gave up

263
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 1: only twenty two sacks last year as suspect as they are,

264
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 1: that's third best in the league. So yes, that's him exactly.

265
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: And then my point is as a unit, they know

266
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 1: how to get the ball out. They don't take a

267
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of sacks because of their their

268
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: play for however good or bad. We think it is

269
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 1: that that means something, and that that means something, especially

270
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: now that he has some better weapons than he had

271
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: last year, indus receivers and tight ends. Yeah, and the

272
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: thing that I'm maybe not scarce, but the thing that

273
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: I'm looking at is that he they have surrounded him

274
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: with guys that he can get the ball too quickly.

275
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham doesn't Brandon Marshall. Maybe he's more of a traditional,

276
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: like you know, deep threat. I don't think of him

277
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: as like a quick twitch, speedy guy. He's like a

278
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: long strider. But Beckham, Shepherd and then this Ingram kid.

279
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: I'm terrified of what Evan Ingram might do for their offense.

280
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: And the fact that you're not looking at guys that

281
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: need a long time to get down the field and

282
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: get open. And I think that's what it's going to

283
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: look like. Talk to me about Evan Ingram. You did

284
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: the Draft show last year. Talk to me about he's

285
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: a rookie this year. What things coming out of college

286
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: were things that he supposedly did well? What things maybe

287
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: did he not do so well? Well. It's a misnomer

288
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: to really label him a tight end because he's just

289
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: a big bodied receiver. That's what he is. I mean,

290
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: he's he's that. He's not even as bulky as like

291
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham though, but he's that Jimmy They you know,

292
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: the red zone, Jimmy Graham, go up and get the ball,

293
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: fast tight end who's probably not going to help you

294
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: a lot as a blocker. Having said that, and you know,

295
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: people kind of derided the Giants when they picked him

296
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 1: because they're like, you had a chance to to upgrade

297
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 1: your offensive line and you took a you know, a

298
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: non blocking tight end instead. You know, you need you

299
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: need to block for Eli so he can get the

300
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: ball to all these receivers. They I think they could

301
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: have had Ryan ramcheck the Wisconsin tackle and they decided

302
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: not to go that way. So, but having said that,

303
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: it's been it's been impressive that he's he's playing three downs,

304
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: he's doing everything for them like they're not. He's not

305
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: doing subpackage stuff, he doesn't have like a limited role.

306
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: He's just their number one tight end, which I did

307
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: not expect, knowing what I know about his skill set,

308
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: I didn't think he'd be ready for that right off

309
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: the bat. And no, he's not going to be Jason Witten.

310
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: But if he can do just enough to help in

311
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: the blocking game and stuff, if he's on the field,

312
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: you know ninety percent of their snaps, I have a

313
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: feeling he's going to be trouble to deal with. Yeah,

314
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: I hear Brian say this all the time about tight

315
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: ends blocking. It's more about the willingness of the blocker

316
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: than sometimes is your ability to block. If you know

317
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: how to get in the way, you know how to

318
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: turn your body a certain way, you're willing to do

319
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: it exactly, then you can be you can be an

320
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: effective blocker, not be great, but you can be an

321
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: effective blocker. And so from that standpoint, maybe that's how

322
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: they look at it this first year is can they

323
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: get him to be an effective blocker? Just you know,

324
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: get in the way, make sure he opens it, you

325
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: know it. Just move your body to a certain way

326
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: and just be in the way. Keep a guy from

327
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: getting between you and and the ball carrier. Truth be told.

328
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: And I'm sure he'd be upset with me saying this,

329
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: but I bet Jason Witten that's pretty much the way

330
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: his career started as a blocker. Now has he developed

331
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 1: technique along the way, sure, but I think for the

332
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: most part he's been a willing blocker. He knows how

333
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: to use leverage getting the way, and then you know,

334
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: he's kind of picked up some some you know, tricks

335
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: of the trade along the way. But I think that

336
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: that's kind of how it started with him. You know,

337
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: he's never been having this overpowering strength, but he can

338
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: block defensive ends and he'll wham the nose. That the

339
00:16:56,200 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 1: story if they it's if it needs to be, it's

340
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to watch because, like I said, I mean,

341
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: they had a chance they could have gotten a tackle

342
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: that they could plug right in there, and I know

343
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: everybody knows that that's a weakness for the Giants, and

344
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 1: they decided not to do it. And tight end is

345
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: such a hard position to adapt to. I mean, you

346
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: think about first round tight ends in the last five years,

347
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: most of them don't make a huge impact in year one.

348
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: Eric Ebron is a guy that's burned me in fantasy

349
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: more times than I can count. But if he plays

350
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: as well as the reviews indicate out of training camp,

351
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 1: and that's not a guarantee, I know that, but if

352
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 1: I mean, the reviews have been great, and if he

353
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 1: is ready to go at that level right away, that

354
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: will be I mean, that sounds like it would be

355
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: really good for them. I have high expectations for what

356
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: he might be. And if you see, sorry, if you

357
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: see some of the preseason games and some of the

358
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:54,120
Speaker 1: plays he's made with ELI, you can tell they've had

359
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: a pretty good connection. He was somewhat of a constant

360
00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: target for him, So the connection between them two has

361
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: been pretty good as compared to Marshall, which he I

362
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: believe he missed two preseason games to due to an injury. Yeah.

363
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: So the only good side of that, aside from him

364
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: being a great player as well, is that he hasn't

365
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 1: had as much time in real game time with him

366
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 1: on the field with ELI, So let's hope that works

367
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: in a positive way for that. I'll say this about

368
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,640
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall, and I believe I'm right on this one.

369
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: He's the only player in the history of the NFL

370
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: to make the Pro Bowl with four different teams. Thousand

371
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 1: yards seasons with four different teams. Yeah, he's one of

372
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: my thousand too. He has had a thousand yards with

373
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 1: four different clubs. Yeah, And so I know, I know,

374
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: you know, there's been some Pro bowlers for three different teams,

375
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: but not four. And you know, I don't know if

376
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: he has a chance for five. We'll see. But to

377
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: your point, or to offset that point, I think he's

378
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 1: picked it up with different quarterbacks you know, here and there,

379
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: and most of them haven't been great. Most of them

380
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: are not at the at the level love Eli Manning.

381
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: So I think he'll be He'll be fine. Plus he's

382
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: not he's not the guy that scares you the most

383
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: on that team. Yeah, And we're going to take a

384
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: break right now. When we come back from break, I

385

425
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 1: it's what's up top that matters. Sure, you need men

426

Speaker 1: with the muscle and heart to get her done. But

427
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,760

435
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: the Breaklock from the s WBC Morgan Studios. We're talking

436
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 1: Cowboys versus Giants today we're focusing in on the Giants offense.

437
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: We've talked about Eli Manning, we talked about a new

438
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: time and Evan Inglam. We talked about the offensive line

439
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: a bit. Now I'll talk about the skill position, the

440
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Um. Let's start first with Odell Beckham. He

441
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 1: has he experienced and I think it was an ankle injury. Yeah,

442
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 1: back during training camp, and by all accounts, they felt

443
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: pretty happy with the prognosis because at first it was

444
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: like is he gonna be Is this like gonna be

445
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: a really serious and sounds very similar to the Tyrone

446
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: Crawford sit right. Yeah, a look bad and everybody thought

447
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: it was pretty bad and then come to find out

448
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: not as bad. Still has a possibility obviously of playing

449
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: this week, although I did read earlier that he is,

450
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: he has not practiced to this point. He wrote the

451
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: stationary Bike all day on Monday during their practice. So

452
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 1: let's talk a little bit about Odell Beckham and what

453
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: he's presented for this team. Do you um when when

454
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: he's at full strength, obviously, really really great player, but

455
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,479
Speaker 1: there have been some games when he's been a little limited.

456
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,919
Speaker 1: The Cowboys have limited him too. Not great plays, but

457
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: he's made a big play, like a play that has

458
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: been a different maker in the game. I mean the

459
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: big one that you're probably referring to is last year

460
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: in New York. I mean, he was the difference in

461
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,360
Speaker 1: that game, and I don't I think it was one

462
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 1: of his only catches of that guy. But other than that,

463
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: they've done a decent job of limiting him. I mean

464
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 1: the twenty fifteen opener after JJ Wilcox cleaned his clock,

465
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 1: I think he finished that game with like one catch

466
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 1: for I don't think he was right. I don't think

467
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,199
Speaker 1: he was either, and his stat sheet indicates that he

468
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 1: had like fewer than fifteen receiving yards. I don't know

469
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: off the top of my head what he had in

470
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: the season opener last year, but he certainly wasn't just

471
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 1: lighting him up by any stretch of the imagination. And

472
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: that's that was kind of the hallmark of this Dallas

473
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: defense last year's. They gave you a little bit, but

474
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,679
Speaker 1: they didn't give you the backbreaking play. That slant that

475
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: he took it for a touchdown being a rare exception.

476
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: I mean, it didn't happen very often where where an

477
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: opponent had a long touchdown like that from you know,

478
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: thirty forty fifty yards out, and that was a rare

479
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: exception that ultimately helped contribute to them losing that. And

480
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: I think that you know, they have that ben, but

481
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 1: don't break defense and to not give up plays like that.

482
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 1: But he pretty much just split the safeties on that

483
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 1: because of his athletic ability. I mean that that's that's

484
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: why you know, he is just so good. I think

485
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: he's you know, you said, he's really really good. I

486
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 1: think when he's healthy, I think he's probably one of

487
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: the top three or four players in the league. I

488
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: really I believe that. I think he's you know, I

489
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: know that he wanted to get paid as the best

490
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 1: player in the NFL, and and I think you could

491
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,400
Speaker 1: make an argument for him he's probably the most exciting

492
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: player um in the league. And he's he's just you know, really,

493
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: he's been way better than than anyone I think could

494
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: have thought. I mean, what was he drafted? Fourteenth? Twelve, thirteenth?

495
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: I think I was around there. I mean, I knew

496
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: it was there. He's number thirteen. I was about to

497
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 1: say that that would be very convenient. It was like

498
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 1: the thirteen. Yeah, he's right around there though, Like it

499
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,439
Speaker 1: was somewhere between ten and fifteen. Yeah, and uh, I

500
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,719
Speaker 1: know the Cowboys were interested, but you know, but they

501
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: didn't what year was that. It was the Zach Martin

502
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: You're ok. Yeah, so they were kind of interested. I mean,

503
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 1: I know that they wanted some defensive players, but if

504
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 1: he was, if he was still available, they would have

505
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: definitely looked into I wouldn't be surprised if they would

506
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: have drafted him if he'd been there, because they had

507
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 1: a very high grade on him. And then Eric Ebron.

508
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: People mentioned the Giants could or the Lions could have

509
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,959
Speaker 1: had Aaron Donald or or Odell Beckham, and I think

510
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: they went with Eric Ebron instead, which he that hurts

511
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 1: a little bit now, so but yeah, I mean absolutely,

512
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: and honestly, his presence and his his health I think

513
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: mean everything, because I mean, this secondary's not as bad

514
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,679
Speaker 1: as I think a lot of people give it credit for.

515
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: But you can, I mean think about those options. And again,

516
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall's dealing with the shoulder too, but you have

517
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: those two Sterling Shepherd is a fantastic slot receiver, and

518
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: then we already gave a hell of an intro to Ingram,

519
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: who who knows if he'll even live up to those expectations.

520
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: But that's just a lot of fleticism for this secondary

521
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 1: to deal with, to the point where, you know, what

522
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: do you do with an athletic tight end like that?

523
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,160
Speaker 1: Do you? I mean, it's Cheeta a woozier gonna try

524
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 1: to play him the way Byron Jones did? Do you

525
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 1: bring Byron Jones out of his safety spot to handle that? Um?

526
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: Are you are you doubling Beckham? I would hope you

527
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: double Beckham, But you know, Rod Marinelli has never really

528
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: been the type to just go out of his way

529
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: to focus on a guy like that. He also doesn't

530
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: typically travel cornerbacks. So if all of these guys are available,

531
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: all four of the ones I just mentioned are out

532
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,959
Speaker 1: there and at full capacity, you're stretching any secondary pretty thin.

533
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: Let me flip this that thought a little bit. Who

534
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: you get Who would you guys say is the best

535
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: cornerbacks of Cowboys has right now? Scandrew Skandrick right in

536
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 1: this scenario, Scandrick when they're in three wide, when they're

537
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 1: in nickel defense, typically he's in the slot. In this instance,

538
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 1: you're playing a team where the least experienced guy on

539
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: that wide receiver corps will probably be the guy that's

540
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,679
Speaker 1: in the slot. In Sterling Shepherd, do you think this

541
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 1: is a situation where the Cowboys should or just you personally,

542
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: do you think this would be a better idea if

543
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys were to keep Scandrick on the outside and

544
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 1: maybe slide someone else in the slot. I don't know

545
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: who that would be, whether that's Anthony Brown do it,

546
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: But do you think that's a better option because of

547
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,439
Speaker 1: the fact that Scandrick is your better better cornerback and

548
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 1: you'd rather And if you're gonna do that, does that

549
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,439
Speaker 1: mean now that you travel him with Beckham Man that

550
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 1: those are good questions. I think that you do need

551
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,719
Speaker 1: to see. I mean, I do believe that that Beckham

552
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: is going to play Now, is he a hundred percent?

553
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: You know, you'll you'll find out. I mean he can.

554
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,880
Speaker 1: Him being out there is still going to be effective.

555
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,920
Speaker 1: So unless he absolutely just can't walk or run and

556
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 1: it's going to hurt himself long term, you know, I

557
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: still think that they play him, but that could affect

558
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: what you do there. You know, do you travel him?

559
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: I mean him at eighty five percent, he's not one

560
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: of the most dynamic players in the league anymore at

561
00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: that point, so maybe maybe you can kind of play

562
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 1: it straight up a little bit. I don't really see

563
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: this as a situation to follow because they've got three

564
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 1: great receivers. I think you need to play your defense

565
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 1: the way you want to play it, you guys, quickly,

566
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: said Scandrick. But I don't think it's he's that much

567
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: better than the other guys, and so I would just

568
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: play my defense. I think because it's a pick your poison.

569
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: It's not like, well, you know, this guy's not any good.

570
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 1: This Shepherd could beat them all day, and Brandon Marshall

571
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 1: could as well. Ingram, I mean, just look at the

572
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 1: preseason and look at last year. The tight ends can

573
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 1: kill this team sometimes. So that's something that Barron Jones really,

574
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,239
Speaker 1: I think Jones and Heath they need to step up

575
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: their game this year from that standpoint, the tight end

576
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: covering the tight end. You know, we've seen too many

577
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: games where you know, some guy you don't even really

578
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: even know who he is, and he's got six or

579
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: seven catches. Are you all concerned about when you look

580
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: at this cornerback group? Really, Nolan Carroll is obviously the

581
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 1: biggest guy they got in that group, but they really

582
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 1: don't have size at the cornerback position. And in this

583
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 1: game particularly, you're facing a beastly wide receiver in Brandon Marshall.

584
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: Are you all concerned about how that matchup works? Especially

585
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: if you say Nick, You're not gonna travel anybody. So's

586
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 1: not gonna say Nolan Carroll, you're gonna be with him.

587
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 1: Now he's lined up on Anthony Brown, Now he's lined

588
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: up on Scandrick. How do you feel about these corners

589
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: in their size and the size they give up against

590
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 1: big wide receivers. Fun little wrinkle here, which it's I mean,

591
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: they haven't practiced yet this week. I have no idea

592
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: what he's ready for. But ben a been wickery. He's

593
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: not huge, but he's five eleven, two hundred. He's in

594
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: this group. That's a big Yes, he's bigger than what

595
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: they've had during the preseason. So if he can get

596
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,959
Speaker 1: up to speed, that's a bigger physical guy that can

597
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 1: help you with this. I don't know if you throw

598
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: him out there against Marshall or what you do with him,

599
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: but it gives you a little bit of a boost

600
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: in the size category, which assuming he's healthy. Again, nobody's practiced.

601
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: But Cheeto is on the bigger side too. I don't

602
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: think he's quite six foot, but he's right in that,

603
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 1: you know, five eleven six foot to you know, close

604
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: to two hundred pounds. So you should would have a

605
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: little bit more size for this game than what you

606
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 1: have had. But I'm I'm with Nick. I like Orlando

607
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: Scandrick in the slot. I leave him in there if

608
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: he can nullify or do his best to nullify Sterling

609
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: Shepherd and let everybody else just kind of piece it

610
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: together outside. I think that's I'm fine with that, because

611
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,840
Speaker 1: there is there is that advantage of like you just

612
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: you said a little bit earlier, Sterling Shepherd, he's one

613
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: of those targets that helps Eli get the ball out quick.

614
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: You nullify that, maybe it does create an extra second,

615
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: an extra second and a half to where maybe your

616
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: defensive front can possibly get home. Well, be Beckham was

617
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: going to go all over the place as well, So

618
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: I means sometimes he'll be in the slot some and

619
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: it'll just be a cat and mouse game of you know,

620
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: at times they'll play Scandrick here, they'll move Brown out,

621
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: they'll move guys around, and you know, I just think

622
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good matchup. I mean, those three

623
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: receivers are definitely better than the Cowboys three or four corners.

624
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 1: But cowboys that are gonna beat them? Oh oh hey,

625
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: not even not even Friday. Okay. But I mean, let's

626
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 1: know that the offensive line is not great. I mean

627
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 1: they're struggling with that. So aside from that, I'm just

628
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: picturing this whole thing how it plays out. Yeah, Eli

629
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 1: gets rid of the ball quickly. He still needs some

630
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: improvement on his completion game. But aside from that, you

631
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: talk about he took about back him. I don't think

632
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: he'll be at his fullest. Obviously, he's coming off from

633
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 1: an injury. And I don't even I see that because

634
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: you drafted him in fantasy last year and he wasn't

635
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: that great for you? Did I have him last year?

636
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 1: I thought so, didn't you? No? No, I think I

637
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: think my team wouldn't have been last. Oh you were last.

638
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: I was one of the last ones. Yeah, but the

639
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: last one. Why we're not playing this year? Yeah, I'm out?

640
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 1: Um No, but I just don't see him playing at

641
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: his fullest. Um. Yeah, what is it? A six time

642
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: pro bowler or something like that. Probably time pro bowler.

643
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 1: I mean the guy has eight eight seasons of his

644
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: eleven seasons where he's had one thousand plus yards. I mean,

645
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: this is a this is a really good wide resunderrated players,

646
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: I agree with recent history of the league. Yeah, it's

647
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: funny because when you start talking about the best receivers

648
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: in the league, his name is rarely among those top

649
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: three or four. But if you look at his numbers

650
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: and what he's consistently done, and especially if you look

651
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: at the quarterbacks, he's done it with his best hard

652
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: to not say he's he's up there. Best quarterback EVERT

653
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: was Jay Cutler. Yeah, and good luck with that. And

654
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: I think that there are players on this team and

655
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: around the league for sure, but on this team that

656
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: can look at Brandon Marshall as an example of a

657
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: guy that was very knuckleheadish, say the least. I mean

658
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: he he had some issues, like yeah, polar and I

659
00:32:55,520 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: mean he had some I think they had some domestic issues. Yeah,

660
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: And and I think, you know, he's turned his his

661
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: career around. I mean I remember in two thousand and

662
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: eight when the Cowboys practiced that with them, Um and

663
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: pac Man Jones was like talking, you know, he was

664
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: he was sitting there talking smack to Brandon Marshall, you

665
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 1: know about how you know he felt like to was

666
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: better than him or something like that, or he's no,

667
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: he's no t O. And then Brandon Marshall came back

668
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: and said, well, he's no Champ Bailey. I mean, I

669
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: can't believe it's been nine years since that, but I

670
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: was remember thinking like, who's who's Brandon Marshall, Like, who's

671
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 1: this guy? Is he any good? You know, he's pretty

672
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 1: good he's been the best of all. Well, I don't

673
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: know if he's been better than t O. No, he's

674
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: not better than THO, but he's I mean, he's he's

675
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 1: got himself a nice little resume. I'll say this, if

676
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 1: if he would have played with the quarterbacks that To

677
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 1: was played to, To played with, yeah, then he probably

678
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 1: would be as good, if not better than t O.

679
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: Wait To played with, played with Romo, he played with Garcia, Stephen,

680
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: Steve Young, Stephen like he played with Donovan mcnabba, Donovan McNabb.

681
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: All of those are better than the best one that

682
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall play with. And Jay Cutler. Yeah, I agree,

683
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: no doubt about all right, Yeah, no doubt about you say,

684
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 1: Donovan McNabb. Yeah, Donovan McNabb is better than Jay Cutler,

685
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: Yes he is. You don't even think about you not

686
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: think Donovan McNabb is good. Yeah, yeah, he's better than

687
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 1: Jay Cuble. We argued about Donovan McNabb. We have if

688
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: anybody had been listening back in the day. We argued

689
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: every time the Cowboys played the Eagles about how I

690
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 1: felt about McNabb versus how he felt about McNab. So,

691
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,280
Speaker 1: oh good, I don't really like Cutler either, So either

692
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: I don't care, I don't care about McNabb either, I

693
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: don't care. I don't care, all right, m One other

694
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: thing I wanted to to ask you guys about with

695
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: regards as the secondary um, wish you feel more comfortable

696
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: with taking Byron Jones and sliding him down and let

697
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,879
Speaker 1: him kind of take on tight end responsibilities or would

698
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: you rather have him back on the deep end rather

699
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,399
Speaker 1: than Heath who do you feel like is more? Would

700
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: you feel more comfortable with being as your your center

701
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: fielder because they do run a lot of single safety

702
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: high This goes I mean it goes back to not

703
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: to sound like Brian brought us, but it's terrible how

704
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: much time those rookies missed because ideally this sounds like

705
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: something Cheeto could do if he'd been practicing for the

706
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: last three weeks. I mean, maybe he can do it,

707
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: but we don't know that. And how much time when

708
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: he was practicing, how much time he's spend a safety? None,

709
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 1: so I was, but I'm thinking more of just like

710
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 1: an in the box kind of like traveling around like

711
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: you know, Byron wasn't really a safety when he was

712
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 1: doing that as a rookie. You know, he was just

713
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: more of like a big nickel. That's the way I

714
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: thought of him. But I haven't seen Cheeto in three weeks,

715
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 1: and I don't know if I liked the idea of

716
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: taking Byron, you know, down out of the safety spot,

717
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: because I really like his athleticism when it comes time

718
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 1: to clean up messes, which I'm sure there will be

719
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: some in this game, so I trust that he could

720
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 1: do that job better than anybody else. But I don't

721
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 1: that sounds we don't like what you have to give

722
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 1: up on the bounds, like it leaves you awfully vulnerable

723
00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: on the back end. If that's what you want to do,

724
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 1: that's what That's where I would rather see him. Is

725
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 1: that the center field or type, even though you know,

726
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: I think we've seen more plays from Jeff Heath in

727
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 1: that role than we have up closer to the line

728
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: of scrimmage a covering. So you know, you wish you

729
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 1: could have Byron Jones do both, but I think it

730
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,959
Speaker 1: got one of them. Yeah, I would probably put Heath

731
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 1: up closer to the line of scrimmage, and that's where

732
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: they might rotate, That's where Frasier might come into play. Yeah,

733
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: I mean I would, And that's a great segue actually,

734
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 1: because one thing I think is worth mentioning is okay,

735
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: Giants o line. I know they're not great. Eli gets

736
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: rid of the ball quick. We know that too. What

737
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 1: about the run game, It's not anything on inspiring on there.

738
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,760
Speaker 1: Paul Perkins, I think is going to be their starter

739
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: at this point. He drafted Wayne Gallman. They've got Shane Vereen,

740
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 1: who's more of a you know, he's that Lance Dunbar

741
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: type guy Roles kind of guy. You um. I think

742
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: they averaged two point eight yards per carry in their

743
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: last preseason outing against I think it was the Browns.

744
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 1: So I do think Paul Perkins is better than jin though.

745
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: I think they'll have a better running game this year

746
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: if the offensive line can block anything well. And I

747
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: guess that's it's not a knock on Paul Perkins because

748
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: the Cowboys liked him in the draft too, like he's

749
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 1: a solid back. And I think Gallman's pretty good too,

750
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,240
Speaker 1: But I don't just I don't know how much fear

751
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 1: that offensive line puts in your heart that they're gonna

752
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,800
Speaker 1: just block you up and run wild on you. So

753
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: if there's a game where you can get away with

754
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: playing a lot of nickel and dime and against these

755
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: receivers and tight up just more dbs, get them all.

756
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: I want eight on the field and just figure it out.

757
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 1: And fortunately, maybe you can get away with that in

758
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 1: this game, because again, this running game doesn't strike a

759
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: lot of fear in my heart. You've got Sean Lee

760
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 1: to help clean up anything that gets past the line.

761
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 1: So that is something I think works in the Cowboys

762
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,439
Speaker 1: favor is that the giants ineptitude in the run game

763
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: maybe frees you up to play a more pass heavy defense.

764
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: All right, let's take our final break, will come back.

00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 1: How you doing? I have had a hot and sunny

819
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 1: hill from move going in France. I want to first

820
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: to express my sympathy to and tell the people in

821
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: southern Casis that I keep them in my praise and

822

00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,520

Speaker 1: awaits and fans. I'm sure you'll be welcomed in Dallas

825
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: and it's her area as I was when I was

826
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 1: in there at different times. I love all these shows

827
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: and I watched every one of them live or on replay.

828
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: I watched, I watched some on Twitter and noticed a

829
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 1: lot of non Cowboys fans were watching two and trying

830
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,280
Speaker 1: to make noise with dumb sentences. I want to stay polite,

831
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 1: correct and respectful on air. Then I wondered why, and

832
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: I discovered that it was because you have the best

833
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 1: streaming team shows on the NFL, and they are jealous.

834
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 1: Sorry for you, cowboysaors. We fand feel we have the

835
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: best team because of its great honored GM organization and players,

836
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 1: and because of you all who are working for so

837
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: hard for Dallas Cowboys dot com. You're the goat. I

838
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 1: want to rant a little bit about the Ziki situation

839
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: and being from far, I'm gonna lean the way the

840
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: great conspiracy and I'm gonna sound like an alkhalead. Maybe

841
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 1: I mean all thirty one of other teams and especially

842
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 1: three in our conference, the marriage and Commissioner himself, and

843
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: he's Darling Crafts Pats leading. They don't want their eskicked

844
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 1: for another ten years like in the nineties. I mean,

845
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: the league don't want any more Cowboys dynasty. Now. I'm

846
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,440
Speaker 1: just gonna say that I'm not afraid by the Wei giants.

847
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: I think if we eat them hard and bad and

848
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: they'll surrender a b j lest year, let Manny feel

849
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 1: the heat and he'll beat all of the place right

850
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 1: to connect with his wide receivers and tight ends. Go

851
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: Cowboys for taking Michael, and I wish you a great day.

852
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 1: Thank you. We appreciated. I got a drop. You're the goat,

853
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: bo cool. That was awesome. Both y'all talk to him, right.

854
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: That made me wish that I still kept up with

855
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 1: my French. I think I think I was just gonna say,

856
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 1: let's let y'all just go both. Y'all could have talked

857
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: to him. You're fluent, right a French. Yeah, It's been

858
00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: probably like ten years now since I've constantly spoken, but yeah,

859
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure you can still piece it together, piece it together.

860
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 1: The thing about I know this from experience, when you

861
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,320
Speaker 1: communicate to a French person that you can speak French,

862
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,120
Speaker 1: all bets are off like they're just they're coming, they're

863
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,439
Speaker 1: gonna go. They're just like, oh, okay, well and then

864
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 1: it's just you're lost. The floodgates are open. And so anyway,

865
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,800
Speaker 1: but one thing he did point out that thought was

866
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: kind of interesting. He was talking about Eli Manning. He

867
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 1: was like, no more Cowboys Dynasty, That's what he was

868
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 1: talking about. Yes, that was one of the things that

869
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: wash that stood out to me at Cowboys Dynasty. But

870
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 1: when he mentioned about Eli Manning, he said, you put

871
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 1: pressure on him, he'll be throwing the ball all over

872
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: the place, and although he gets rid of the ball quickly.

873
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 1: That is one thing that that you could say about

874
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 1: elis when he gets pressure. And I don't know, you

875
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 1: can't say that about a whole bunch of quarterbacks in

876
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 1: the league. But when you can get pressure on him,

877
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: then even though he might get it out quickly, it's

878
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 1: probably gonna be a bit more erratic. And that's when

879
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,360
Speaker 1: you have opportunities, right. I said this, yeah, and I

880
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 1: said this yesterday. Actually, somebody emailed the mail bag this

881
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: morning and said, basically the gist of the email was,

882
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,320
Speaker 1: I don't remember y'all writing about the defensive line giving

883
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: the offensive line this much trouble last year or so

884
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 1: is the offensive line taking a step back? Or is

885
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 1: the defensive line just better? I think you could probably.

886
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,719
Speaker 1: I mean, ron Leary is better than whoever's going to

887
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 1: play left guard, and Lyle Collins is still learning. So

888
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:31,479
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say that this offensive line

889
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 1: is not as good as last year's was, at least

890
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 1: not right now. But I still think that the defensive

891
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: line has improved, honestly from and no they're not the

892
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 1: Broncos but or the Seahawks, but I think they're I

893
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 1: think they're a little bit better than I thought they

894
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: would be. And I wonder, especially if this offensive line.

895
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: This Giant's offensive line is as leaky as people give

896
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: it credit for. I wonder how they'll do, Like I

897
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: kind of feel like maybe they'll get some pressure on

898
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 1: this guy. You know, you don't forget that at this

899
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,360
Speaker 1: point last year, Leary I don't think was the starter, right,

900
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,839
Speaker 1: that is true. And then Doug Free. So I think

901
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:11,759
Speaker 1: the line did get a little bit better because Doug

902
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,839
Speaker 1: Free was injured kind of the start the year or two.

903
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: So overall, I think the five guys on the line

904
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,839
Speaker 1: got better as the year went on. Um, But we'll

905
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 1: see about what you're saying. I mean, I think that

906
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 1: they they'll be able to dial it up on the

907
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 1: defensive end and get some pressure. And you're right, I

908
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,279
Speaker 1: mean Eli will throw some some bad passes. I mean,

909
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 1: that's why he makes those faces, because he will make

910
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 1: some bad decisions like a lot of quarterbacks do when

911
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 1: when they get pressure. So that's actually when you asked, like,

912
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,879
Speaker 1: what stood out about the two main My two main

913
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:45,840
Speaker 1: memories from last year, well, the Beckham, the Beckham touchdown

914
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:49,760
Speaker 1: in the second game, the Terrence sideline debacle, which really

915
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 1: wasn't a debacle because it would have been like a

916
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 1: sixty yard field goal anyway, and then Eli threw like

917
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: one of the worst picks I've ever seen the Brandon

918
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,319
Speaker 1: Car Brandon Carr, I mean, on the first possession of

919
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,880
Speaker 1: the third quarter. It was just it was like he

920
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 1: felt He's like, I know, you haven't had a pick

921
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: in two years. I'm like, literally, it wasn't a pretty

922
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: exciting moment. I saw, like the play happened live, dropped

923
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 1: that one. The play happened live, and I was like,

924
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,359
Speaker 1: Brandon Car got a pick, Oh my god, blah blah blah.

925
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: And then I watched the replay and like literally all

926
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:18,439
Speaker 1: Car had to do was just kind of sink down

927
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: to his knees and catch it because the I think

928
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 1: it was Beckham or the receiver, whoever it was, was

929
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 1: just standing there, like, and what do you do if

930
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 1: you don't remember it? Just just know this that Larry

931
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 1: Brown had two more difficult interceptions in the Super Bowl

932
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: thirty against the Steelers than than what he had. It

933
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: was something else, that's for sure. But you know, I

934
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: kind of agree with you that I do think the

935
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 1: defensive line is better. I also think this is also

936
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: a function of every time a defensive lineman were to

937
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 1: beat an offensive lineman during training camps and became news. Yeah,

938
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 1: it's because the offensive line is so good that if

939
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 1: they got beat then it was like, oh wow, wow,

940
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 1: they beat beat Martin on that play. You know, that

941
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: was a huge deal if somebody beat Martin on a

942
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 1: play when you know, vast majority of time Martin was

943
00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: you know, he's steady, you weren't gonna beat him. So

944
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit of both. But I

945
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 1: do agree there are they are better. I think they're better.

946
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 1: They don't have the guy that you have to game

947
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: plan around, right, which is a problem, But of any

948
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:22,000
Speaker 1: I mean DeMarcus Mayowa, Paia Malik and when he gets back,

949
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,319
Speaker 1: when they get back to Montremore, and David Irving, I mean,

950
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,719
Speaker 1: and Tyrone Crawford too, I'll throw him at Like can't

951
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:32,480
Speaker 1: you can imagine all of those guys getting five or six? Right? Like, yeah,

952
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. I said you can imagine, I didn't

953
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 1: say it was gonna happen, Like, like one of those

954
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: guys will get five or six. I think three or

955
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 1: four of them will probably have between four and six.

956
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:42,239
Speaker 1: I mean that's what they did last year. Honestly, I

957
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: think there will be one guy that gets up to

958
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,800
Speaker 1: probably about six or seven, and I think it's probably

959
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 1: gonna be Malik. Malik had five and a half last year,

960
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 1: Tyrone had four and a half, Mayowa had six. That right,

961
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a solid start. If you can get

962
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,000
Speaker 1: two other guys to come along with you and get

963
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 1: five or six, you maybe cooking a little. So yesterday

964
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 1: talking to sound right, Yeah, I don't know if it's

965
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,839
Speaker 1: going to happen, but I can imagine all of those

966
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,920
Speaker 1: guys getting into that range. Um talking to tyr Own

967
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 1: Crawford yesterday, and he was just saying, how he feels

968
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:16,799
Speaker 1: pretty good. You know, he's not going to be one,

969
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: but he feels pretty good. He said that he didn't

970
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,160
Speaker 1: think when he was on the field when he got

971
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:23,960
Speaker 1: injured that he would be at this point talking even

972
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 1: talking about week one. But then I asked him about

973
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,800
Speaker 1: often playing defensive tackles since they only have three tackles,

974
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:36,959
Speaker 1: or playing some end. He was just like, yeah, yeah,

975
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:41,240
Speaker 1: sounds good. Okay, like you're not really It was pretty funny.

976
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 1: I was there, I watched it. He kind of ignored

977
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,800
Speaker 1: Nick right away. Yeah, I kind of like talked myself

978
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 1: out of the question, you know, like, based off of

979
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 1: his I fell embarrassed for you. Don't worry about that. Yeah,

980
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 1: that's just part of be interrupt Yeah, but I kind of,

981
00:48:56,120 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: as I said, like, do you um so usually we

982
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 1: usually when you ask a question, you kind of like

983
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,439
Speaker 1: open open it up for them to cut you off

984
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 1: with the answer. So I was like, yeah, they kept

985
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:10,960
Speaker 1: three tackles. You've played a little bit of both. Do

986
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 1: you see yourself playing you know, some defensive tackle or

987
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna stick to end where you've been most of

988
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 1: the time, or and he was like, or you're just

989
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:22,919
Speaker 1: not gonna say anything because it's weak one. Yeah, okay, cool,

990
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 1: thank you. I don't think you even say anything. I

991
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 1: don't think this question basically just waiting for the next question. Bro.

992
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 1: That just okay. But I got the answer by by

993
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:33,800
Speaker 1: no answer, I got the answer. He's gonna played defensive tackle.

994
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 1: And that's something he probably didn't want to say, probably right, Yeah,

995
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:40,439
Speaker 1: he probably. I mean, I don't want to put words

996
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,440
Speaker 1: in his mouth, but he probably doesn't want to do it.

997
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 1: He probably like, can I just play a position? Can

998
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 1: you just Oh? Yeah? But I would bet he's probably

999
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:48,200
Speaker 1: he's gonna do like a lot of these guys have

1000
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: done over the years. With Rod Marinelli, he's gonna probably

1001
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 1: be doing both. Yeah, there would be times you look

1002
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 1: out there and he's at defensive tackle. There are times

1003
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 1: you look out there, look out there and he's at

1004
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 1: defensive end. Like there got a lot of guys that

1005
00:49:57,880 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: do that, and that's what they've kind of built this

1006
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:03,120
Speaker 1: defense line to do, is to be flexible and have

1007
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 1: guys that can jump out the position to position. It's

1008
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:07,400
Speaker 1: a shame because you know, I had a couple of

1009
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:11,400
Speaker 1: coaches say that he has finally, you know, just healthy,

1010
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 1: and he was. He was looking really good like and

1011
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 1: not only was he was he playing, you know, was

1012
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 1: he really athletic, but you could tell he was taking

1013
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 1: on kind of that leadership role. Like that day he

1014
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 1: just kind of went off at practice. He just was

1015
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,239
Speaker 1: just fighting everyone, you know, because he had seen the

1016
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:28,240
Speaker 1: day before that they were getting beat. So he wasn't

1017
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 1: doing anything like winning in practice, but he was just

1018
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 1: gonna say, well, if anything, I'm just gonna fight. And

1019
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 1: I think that right there. Since once that happened, the

1020
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 1: defense kind of turned a little bit, they started winning

1021
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,600
Speaker 1: a little bit more. So it was just some energy

1022
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 1: he's taken a little bit more of that role, and

1023
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 1: I was gonna, I mean, we can have all the

1024
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 1: conversations you want about his effectiveness and whether his paycheck

1025
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:53,799
Speaker 1: is justifiable, but you can't question that he's a good

1026
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:57,920
Speaker 1: soldier and the famous, the right kind of guy. I mean,

1027
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 1: he dude injuries, lay through everything, moves to whatever position

1028
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,440
Speaker 1: they tell him to just I mean, and and he's

1029
00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:09,400
Speaker 1: if you're gonna identify like a leader father figure in

1030
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: the defensive line room, it's him. So he handles all

1031
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:14,359
Speaker 1: that stuff. You can't question any of that about him.

1032
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,480
Speaker 1: That's somebody asked me yesterday, you know, if I thought

1033
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 1: he was actually ready to play or if it was

1034
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 1: just a situation where they needed him. I was like,

1035
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 1: he hasn't been ready to play in like two years

1036
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,480
Speaker 1: in terms of, you know, his health. But he's just

1037
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,520
Speaker 1: a tough, tough dude. So I mean, yeah, I think

1038
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,480
Speaker 1: he'll be out there. That's not even a question, is it.

1039
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a question. This place sounds like

1040
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 1: it's actually happening. All right. Let's take a question from Twitter. Well,

1041
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: here's a quick comment from dusting saying Phil from France

1042
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 1: is the man. So thanks again, Phil, further call, and

1043
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 1: Rob is asking does the extra extra sorry week off

1044
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:54,800
Speaker 1: adversively affect the Cowboys versus Giants due to the canceled

1045
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:58,359
Speaker 1: preseason game. I really don't think that matters at all

1046
00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:02,479
Speaker 1: because they they all did what they were going to do.

1047
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 1: That's I don't think a single guy that will factor

1048
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,319
Speaker 1: heavily in this game played or would have played. I

1049
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:12,120
Speaker 1: mean Xavier Woods, Cavon Frasier. Yeah, they got a practice,

1050
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,439
Speaker 1: they practice and they didn't get hurt. So I don't

1051
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 1: think it really helps because I don't think it was

1052
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 1: an advantage that the Giants didn't have. I mean, the

1053
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 1: key players for the Giants I'm sure didn't play in

1054
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,359
Speaker 1: their last game either, So nah, I don't think that

1055
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:29,160
Speaker 1: that does anything to them. If Rob wants to ask

1056
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 1: us a question, just tell him to come downstairs. I know.

1057
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 1: Rob quit twittering from up there. Okay, I do have

1058
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 1: an accent. Okay, what big deal. Let's get over it

1059
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 1: all right. Another question from Twitter? Okay, questions about the

1060
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,360
Speaker 1: what is it called suspended here? It is suspended, guys.

1061
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 1: Do you guys think that it will really affect the

1062
00:52:54,440 --> 00:53:01,799
Speaker 1: Cowboys in this in the next games? Irving Demontre more,

1063
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:06,240
Speaker 1: not having not having these guys will really affect the team. Yeah,

1064
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 1: just start with the Giants game. The guys are out

1065
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 1: for the Giants game. You think that's gonna have a

1066
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:13,320
Speaker 1: big impact on this game? Does? Is Charles Tapper gonna play?

1067
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,479
Speaker 1: You think you think he's gonna suit up and play.

1068
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 1: I had a conversation with somebody yesterday where we were.

1069
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if he's the seventh inactive.

1070
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:23,479
Speaker 1: I don't know that for sure, but but they only

1071
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: have eight. Yeah, and I don't think he'll play. I

1072
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 1: saw his face yesterday. He didn't seem like he's gonna play.

1073
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: I read his language his face. This guy's not gonna

1074
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 1: play this week. Thought about walking up to him me

1075
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,279
Speaker 1: just asking him. I thought so, But just because I

1076
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,360
Speaker 1: saw his face, I'm like, he's like, I got this

1077
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 1: in the mood, I got this. I mean, yeah, they

1078
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 1: would be short on the defensive line if he's inactive,

1079
00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:50,359
Speaker 1: because they only have eight right now. Yeah, if if

1080
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 1: he does play, then then yeah, I think that you

1081
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:57,279
Speaker 1: certainly would. You're gonna miss what you would have had

1082
00:53:57,280 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 1: with the Demontre Moore or Irving or both. So yeah,

1083
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:04,279
Speaker 1: I mean I think that that it's it affects it

1084
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 1: because David Irvings the type of versatile player that can

1085
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 1: that can do what you say, play inside and if

1086
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 1: the Giants have some players on their line that you

1087
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 1: think you can take advantage of, David Irvings has been

1088
00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:16,040
Speaker 1: the type of player that you can see that can

1089
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 1: kind of you know, he can win those mismatches. So yeah,

1090
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 1: I would would definitely like to have him out there

1091
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 1: if it wasn't if they were both healthy, I mean

1092
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 1: they're both active to play Tapper. I don't know if

1093
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,920
Speaker 1: Tapper would be on the team, actually, I don't. I mean,

1094
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:32,800
Speaker 1: when when both those guys are back, they're gonna have

1095
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:35,520
Speaker 1: to make some kind of decisions. Are convince a line? Right?

1096
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 1: That's stuff to get creative like he did and some

1097
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:41,640
Speaker 1: other injuries get creative. That stuff tends to take care

1098
00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:45,359
Speaker 1: of itself a month over him. For Irving, I don't

1099
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,759
Speaker 1: know so much about Demontre more. I mean, maybe you

1100
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,560
Speaker 1: get through two games without any significant injuries and then

1101
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:54,040
Speaker 1: you have to make yeah, all right real quick. I've

1102
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: seen a lot of questions about Twitzer. Do you guys

1103
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 1: think that we'll get to see him this week? And

1104
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,680
Speaker 1: if so, how much well he contributed to the team.

1105
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:08,080
Speaker 1: See see I think I think we're going to see

1106
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 1: Ryan Switzer. Yes, I do too, Yeah, why would mean? Yeah?

1107
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:15,799
Speaker 1: But you know, that's the thing about offense, That's the thing.

1108
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 1: I mean, everybody's like talking about Switzer, but the fact

1109
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:20,479
Speaker 1: of the matter is there are a ton of guys

1110
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,080
Speaker 1: ahead of him as far as guys that when you

1111
00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:24,920
Speaker 1: start just going down the list of guys that will

1112
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 1: get the ball on offense, I think you're probably gonna

1113
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,759
Speaker 1: get to probably fifth before you get to his name,

1114
00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:34,279
Speaker 1: probably maybe more, I don't know. I mean at least fifth, right,

1115
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 1: So I don't I don't text a whole lot, a

1116
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 1: lot more than most of your guys. He's going to

1117
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:43,359
Speaker 1: touch the football most guy and special special teams is yeah,

1118
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 1: that's where that's where they drafted. But I guess that's

1119
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:46,920
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, is that's where I was going. Was.

1120
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 1: I think on offense, whatever you get is going to

1121
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 1: be gravy. I don't think there's a lot that's built

1122
00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: for him. So he may get a few opportunities, I

1123
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 1: don't think it'll be a lot special teams where you'll

1124
00:55:57,160 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 1: have opportunity to make a mark, right, yeah, I mean,

1125
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: I mean that's where are my expectations are to start.

1126
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't be surprised if they find a way

1127
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: to this week. You can get yeah, I don't get those.

1128
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:08,520
Speaker 1: A little sleep yeah, a little death sweeps and a

1129
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,960
Speaker 1: little you know, a little swing routes they used to

1130
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:14,319
Speaker 1: do with with you would lucky Lucky. Yes, what they

1131
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 1: used to do is free agent. Now, Yes, he's hurt.

1132
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:19,879
Speaker 1: Though hurt free agent. I want to I would guess

1133
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:21,799
Speaker 1: he was waved injured because he broke his foot. I

1134
00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,440
Speaker 1: don't know. I haven't really been paying a lot of

1135
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:28,719
Speaker 1: attention to him yet. Cut him huh yeah, exactly. That's

1136
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,799
Speaker 1: that good? All right? One more question I was used

1137
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:33,800
Speaker 1: gonna say real quick, I'm really excited to see Switzer,

1138
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,200
Speaker 1: and I know everyone is, but at least in the

1139
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:40,840
Speaker 1: punt return game versus Lucky Whitehead. Oh my god, he

1140
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,920
Speaker 1: would annoy me so much last year. Like, you take

1141
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,640
Speaker 1: this stuff, this stuff so personally because you're watching from

1142
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: up there. It's like it's like when you see a fight,

1143
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,160
Speaker 1: you know, or boxing or stuff or something like that,

1144
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 1: you want to like you're kind of imitating the thing

1145
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: I want to be in it. I see Lucky last year.

1146
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:02,360
Speaker 1: I have never once wanted to be okay, okay or

1147
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 1: in a box. But I'm trying to say watching Lucky Whitehead,

1148
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:12,360
Speaker 1: no I haven't okay, it was clearly let's stop that, Joe, Okay.

1149
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, watching Lucky Whitehead from up there or

1150
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: anywhere you're at, especially from up high, you just see

1151
00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: him dancing around the field. And yeah, he was a

1152
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 1: fast player, but he never really did anything, and that

1153
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,760
Speaker 1: was annoying. It's very frustrating. You're not wrong, I mean,

1154
00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 1: run to the right, run to the left, and nothing

1155
00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:34,480
Speaker 1: that he's still there. I think Switzer is gonna be fine,

1156
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:36,440
Speaker 1: but you do get the little bit of the backup

1157
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,200
Speaker 1: quarterback syndrome with him because we haven't seen him yet,

1158
00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:43,400
Speaker 1: so everybody you know he's West Welker meets Cole Beasley

1159
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: meets Tyreek Hill, and you know he's not if he'd

1160
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,160
Speaker 1: played in the preseason and fumbled some punts and everybody like,

1161
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,479
Speaker 1: oh my god, I hate this guy. What's he doing

1162
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:54,560
Speaker 1: back there? So I think he'll be fine, but I

1163
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 1: do think the hype to see him probably exceeds what

1164
00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 1: he's actually going to do. At least to start. That's

1165
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 1: a rap. We appreciate you joining us. We'll be back

1166
00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 1: tomorrow nine thirty am Central to then for Nick Eatman,
