Speaker 1: and Kyle Yeoman's day. It's a Cowboys picturing Monday on
Speaker 1: Talking Cowboys, presented by Kaiker, excuse me, presented by Tostitos,
Speaker 1: the officials and the official tip of the Dallas Cowboys. Well,
Speaker 1: come into the s WBC podcast studio here from the
Speaker 1: Star in Frisco. We're breaking it all down for you
Speaker 1: here over the next forty five minutes alongside Rob Phillips,
Speaker 1: Isaiah stand Back, the Great, heck Ma Harrison, I'm Kyle
Speaker 1: Yeoman's where the Cowboys take down the Philadelphia Eithers. Forty
Speaker 1: one twenty one was the final score and it was
Speaker 1: a dominant win from all three phases. Heck m, I'll
Speaker 1: let you start things out on this one, and what
Speaker 1: were your initial thoughts of the win? Chris, I'm echoing,
Speaker 1: there you go, I got you, you got me? Yeah? Man?
Speaker 1: What were my initial thoughts, man, we put it on them.
Speaker 1: Those are my thoughts. We put it on them. We
Speaker 1: did exactly what we said we were gonna do. Isaiah
Speaker 1: wasn't worried. We went into this whole last week talking
Speaker 1: about this what was going to happen in the game,
Speaker 1: and I think defensively, guys, you've seen some great things
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks, especially the turnovers. I
Speaker 1: know there's been a lot of talk about can they
Speaker 1: continue this trend, and it looks like we can. Trey
Speaker 1: vun Dix joins Everson Walls as the only Cowboys to
Speaker 1: had was it three straight interceptions in the game. I
Speaker 1: think great games to start. Yeah, I saw the season
Speaker 1: first since eighty five, and so he went to me first. P.
Speaker 1: He went to me first. P. I was thinking that
Speaker 1: he was gonna go to you, because you always go
Speaker 1: first in the show that the most energy. I was
Speaker 1: gonna pass it on to you. I was gonna say, good,
Speaker 1: I don't understand what's going on. We went last night
Speaker 1: and I know you you've been up all night. You
Speaker 1: look like a man that's been up all night with somebody.
Speaker 1: Oh he's dressed swaggy today. Man. I love it. I
Speaker 1: love it. Yeah, I just threw on the easiest thing
Speaker 1: I had in the closet. But I just came in
Speaker 1: here this morning with big Dak energy and I want
Speaker 1: everybody out there, a cowboy nation, to know what time
Speaker 1: it is with this team, and uh, look, man, we
Speaker 1: look at good. Let me come on, why's it? Come on?
Speaker 1: What's up? Chris Mightney started this thing over again? I'm
Speaker 1: just not getting the bushwhack this morning. What's up with?
Speaker 1: Nobody else's talked other than you. My expectations for this
Speaker 1: team has raised. I'm not excited. I'm as as you
Speaker 1: mentioned right, I was not worried about Philadelphia now. So
Speaker 1: am I happy that we want of course, But we're
Speaker 1: supposed to beat up on those guys. They're not a
Speaker 1: very good We're supposed to beat up on that. With
Speaker 1: our current team, with the way our our organization is
Speaker 1: put together right now, with the coaches and the players
Speaker 1: that we have, we're supposed to beat up on that team. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And that's why I was unbothered earlier in the week,
Speaker 1: like I'm happy that we got to win. But even
Speaker 1: you're watching the game live, like I'm there was nothing
Speaker 1: else surprised by this is an NFC East game. When
Speaker 1: you know, like records go out the window, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: I hear you. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: like we still have a roster and we still have
Speaker 1: a coaching staff. And they went out there and executed
Speaker 1: what they were supposed to do, right. They played mistake
Speaker 1: free football. Yes, and they did what they were supposed
Speaker 1: to do when they played mistake free football. We talked
Speaker 1: about earlier in the week. I talked about it in
Speaker 1: the film room and some other things. Guess what Jalen
Speaker 1: Hurts is gonna get out the pocket. He's gonn want
Speaker 1: to throw the ball deep. They don't have the patience, right,
Speaker 1: all those kind of things. That's what we saw, right,
Speaker 1: inaccurate passes, in patience, and then their ability not to
Speaker 1: move just move the ball down the field when they
Speaker 1: were actually moving the ball down the field right, and
Speaker 1: then they want to take their big shot. We made
Speaker 1: them pay right. We went back on the offensi side
Speaker 1: of the ball. We converted may big plays. We ran
Speaker 1: the ball really well. We threw the ball well, that's
Speaker 1: what we're supposed to do. I am not surprised at
Speaker 1: the result of this game. Am I happy? Of course
Speaker 1: I'm not elated because we're supposed to do that. I
Speaker 1: was worried about this game, I'll admit it. I was
Speaker 1: because I thought they'd win. The Cowboys would win this
Speaker 1: game on the strength of their offense number one. But look,
Speaker 1: we've seen the defense. Last year's struggle with offenses that
Speaker 1: had big play capability in terms of speed, and you know,
Speaker 1: Hurts got behind the defense a few times. But this
Speaker 1: Cowboys defense is special. It is a one eighty from
Speaker 1: last year through three games. I mean more than a
Speaker 1: one eighty. Ye what they've been able to do. And
Speaker 1: if you draw up like everything we talked about in
Speaker 1: camp in the offseason, kind of a template for what
Speaker 1: we think the Cowboys can be as a good team
Speaker 1: if things work out and it's a lights out offense
Speaker 1: that's healthy and a defense that has notable improvement. Just
Speaker 1: be solid, don't make a bunch of mistakes, get some
Speaker 1: take of ways. It's like textbooked what we saw last
Speaker 1: night for what they can be. And yeah, I think
Speaker 1: you have to have your expectations raised after this game.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Philly, you really to this point,
Speaker 1: you still don't really know how good every team is.
Speaker 1: But like heck said, it's a division game. You had
Speaker 1: to win games like that, and you want it in
Speaker 1: a fashion where I think you kind of put the
Speaker 1: league on notice, like this is going to be a
Speaker 1: very tough matchup anybody we play this year. I think
Speaker 1: I'm kind of in between all three of you guys
Speaker 1: because I was not worried. I agree with you and
Speaker 1: the fact that you were supposed to beat up on
Speaker 1: the Eagles, But man, I'm I'm right there with Heckma
Speaker 1: in terms of saying the way you beat up on
Speaker 1: them is what has me expecteel good. It makes you
Speaker 1: feel great because it was the first it was the
Speaker 1: first forty forty burger that we've seen that has also
Speaker 1: come with a side of defense. It should have been
Speaker 1: a fifty should have been a forty eight burger. Put
Speaker 1: on them. They robbed us, They robbed us, They robbed us,
Speaker 1: and I don't I don't care what anybody he says.
Speaker 1: That was a touchdown and they which one the goal line,
Speaker 1: the goal line QB sneak with dak over the goal line.
Speaker 1: They were pictures to the surface later where the based
Speaker 1: upon the evidence at that time, and it depends on
Speaker 1: when they blew the whistle and where he was, I mean,
Speaker 1: based upon the camera angles did not show them. But
Speaker 1: either way, I'm for that too. I'm for that too
Speaker 1: because a lot of other leagues have it and it
Speaker 1: makes it things more efficient in the technology they have it.
Speaker 1: But the first half man our offensive line was teeing
Speaker 1: off on them and that was we were and I
Speaker 1: tweeted it. Man, we were playing bullyball at that point
Speaker 1: and you love to see that, and that hadn't been
Speaker 1: something that we've done in quite some time. Seeing Zeke
Speaker 1: finished runs, seeing Tony Pollard in that mix uh that
Speaker 1: they do with them both, I think it's very unique,
Speaker 1: uh in a in a passing setting and running. Um.
Speaker 1: I just love what Kellen Moore is doing right now
Speaker 1: with this offense having things clicking, but Dan Quinn's ability
Speaker 1: to simplify the defense from last year. You see guys
Speaker 1: playing fast at all, eleven guys to the ball, and
Speaker 1: that's just something that we didn't see last year that
Speaker 1: I think this year when it's right there and you'll
Speaker 1: face and you're like, that's it. Do that. So yesterday
Speaker 1: was a coordination for this defense in Dad Quinn and
Speaker 1: I loved it. You gotta get the ground game going.
Speaker 1: It's kind of what goes back to what twenty sixteen
Speaker 1: when the Cowboys had Zeke and they were able to
Speaker 1: run the ball, wear down a defense and then have
Speaker 1: your defense make some plays here and there to get
Speaker 1: the stop and allow your team to win. It kind
Speaker 1: of went back to that mindset, but it was balanced
Speaker 1: at the same time. I mean, Dak still got his
Speaker 1: throws in, Zeke got his carries, Pauler got his carries.
Speaker 1: The love was spread on offense. But kind of going
Speaker 1: back to your point, and then Rob said it a
Speaker 1: little earlier. This one eight for the defense is so
Speaker 1: impressive to me because when we were entering this season,
Speaker 1: what were we saying about the defense. The offense is
Speaker 1: going to be good, We need the defense to be adequate.
Speaker 1: We need them to be middle of the road. This
Speaker 1: isn't the middle of the road defense right now. This
Speaker 1: is a top five defense in the NFL fell at
Speaker 1: least in the way they've played through the three games.
Speaker 1: It's true there they're leading the NFL and takeaways, the
Speaker 1: points per game are down. You're you're able to stop
Speaker 1: some of the best offenses aka the Chargers, and I
Speaker 1: know you didn't stop Tom Brady, but you limited Tom
Speaker 1: Brady to a certain extent. I don't. I'm ultra impressed
Speaker 1: with the way this defense is played, oh for sure.
Speaker 1: And I mean they've been able to stop the run too.
Speaker 1: That was the biggest problem that they had last year.
Speaker 1: I think that kind of started everything with their troubles
Speaker 1: last year. Have they given up a hundred yard rusher
Speaker 1: rusher yet they gave even been those? I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, in last night, Philly only tries
Speaker 1: to twelve attempts. There They're way behind throughout the game.
Speaker 1: So that's that's part of it. But that's part of
Speaker 1: part of the problem last year is they had so
Speaker 1: many injuries offensively, they couldn't build leads in play bullyball,
Speaker 1: as you said, And this was a complimentary win. This
Speaker 1: was as complete a win that I've seen the Cowboys have,
Speaker 1: certainly under Mike McCarthy. And it did remind me of
Speaker 1: twenty six team, but a lot of it reminded me
Speaker 1: of of last week. And I'm sorry I'm shifting back
Speaker 1: to the offense here, but I said it last week.
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott has become such an effective quarterback in this
Speaker 1: league that I don't defenses don't know how to play this.
Speaker 1: They don't know how and so you know, some of
Speaker 1: it's the way defenses play. But it was like the
Speaker 1: Chargers last week, they're gonna play coverage and try don't
Speaker 1: let Dak beat us. Well, now we're gonna hammer you
Speaker 1: and we're gonna move you off the ball in the
Speaker 1: running game. That was I think that might have been
Speaker 1: what impressed me the most last night was the way
Speaker 1: the offensive line move guys a pretty good defensive line
Speaker 1: around and got the run game going and another balanced
Speaker 1: offensive win. And Kellen was in his bag last night. Yes,
Speaker 1: Sir Aaiah Asaiah talk about and I gotta ask you
Speaker 1: this because you know, once you are able to get
Speaker 1: the running game going and teams have to honor play action,
Speaker 1: what does that do as far as what you're able
Speaker 1: to call as an offense, call whatever the heck you
Speaker 1: want to, especially when you have, you know, guys that
Speaker 1: are your Pollard and Zeke both can do the same things. Now,
Speaker 1: one might be better in one category than the other.
Speaker 1: Zeke's gonna be more more powerful, more downhill. Poler is
Speaker 1: going to be more explosive, but they both can catch
Speaker 1: the ball in the backfield. They both can run screens,
Speaker 1: they both can come downhill. So when you have backs
Speaker 1: that can do everything, and then you have the officive
Speaker 1: line like we have that's able to punish guys, move
Speaker 1: guys off the ball, and then you have tight ends
Speaker 1: or receivers, I can get down the field, you can
Speaker 1: do whatever the heck you really want to um killing more.
Speaker 1: Kudos to him for whatever he did this offseason. Whatever
Speaker 1: he did this offseason, he needs to continue to do
Speaker 1: it because he has gone in this bag and I
Speaker 1: hope it isn't. I hope he's not like a bag
Speaker 1: of skittles and it's like the last one, you know,
Speaker 1: I hope he has more in there. It's kind of
Speaker 1: hope exactly. Yeah, I need to cost go back because
Speaker 1: he's pulling a lot of stuff out. You know, you
Speaker 1: see him a governing at fullback and I he's keeping
Speaker 1: guys off balance, and that's what you want to do
Speaker 1: as an officive coordinator. And I think when you have
Speaker 1: the personnel that we have on officer out of the ball,
Speaker 1: that's expected, but it's not necessarily always carried out. So
Speaker 1: great job to kill him more and defensively A lot
Speaker 1: of people are surprised. I think I think you guys
Speaker 1: know from the day one dan Quinn. I know dan Quinn.
Speaker 1: I've had him matters a car. I'm not surprised. Like,
Speaker 1: this is what he does when he has the personnel,
Speaker 1: He gets the best out of his guys. He makes
Speaker 1: it fun, he builds him creates a culture that's highly competitive. Right,
Speaker 1: nobody is above anybody else, right. Next man is always
Speaker 1: ready to come in and fulfill his role because he
Speaker 1: puts you in position to be successful. Robbie, if you're
Speaker 1: fast and you run and hit guess what. I'm putting
Speaker 1: you in a position to run and hit somebody in
Speaker 1: the dog on chest and you're gonna have a great
Speaker 1: time doing it, and then we're gonna celebrate it every
Speaker 1: single time. That's what he does. And you're seeing, you're
Speaker 1: seeing his cultivation of that come to fruition with with
Speaker 1: dan Quinn, and I'm I'm just excited to see it.
Speaker 1: Actually everybody else to see it, because I was blessed
Speaker 1: to see it when I was playing with Seattle and
Speaker 1: we made a bunch last week out of how many
Speaker 1: guys they were missing on defensively too, And it didn't
Speaker 1: it didn't see it doesn't matter. Rocks at it. It
Speaker 1: doesn't seem to matter. And and you're right, they're putting
Speaker 1: guys in good spots and they're getting contributions from a
Speaker 1: lot of young guys too, and it's not just Michael Parsons.
Speaker 1: We can go down the list. We were doing our
Speaker 1: smelly stickers later, So yeah, do it that. We want
Speaker 1: to tell about that smelly stickers. I'll talk about the
Speaker 1: debate we had about Michael Parsons how successful was he
Speaker 1: at that position? Well, okay, so the debate last week
Speaker 1: on Talking Cowboys was between mister Heck Ma Harrison and
Speaker 1: then the other corner. It was Isaiah stand back and
Speaker 1: think thinking, uh so the edge rusher with Michael Parsons
Speaker 1: versus edge rusher with the linebacker I mean basically, or
Speaker 1: I mean, excuse me, Michael Parsons as the linebacker. That
Speaker 1: was the conversation. So I'll let Heck we go first
Speaker 1: round round one. What did you think about Michael Parsons
Speaker 1: last night in his contribution in both ways? Well, I
Speaker 1: loved it. I love the energy that he brings to
Speaker 1: the defense. I think when you have a young guy
Speaker 1: out there that every snap his energy doesn't go away.
Speaker 1: You know, he's the same guy in the first quarter
Speaker 1: that he is in the fourth. He's always actively getting after.
Speaker 1: You saw him get those holding penalties. There's a few
Speaker 1: that they did not call that was obvious holding penalties.
Speaker 1: But I also see what it does for Randy Gregory.
Speaker 1: Last night, Randy Gregory became the player that I think
Speaker 1: all of us have been waiting on him to become.
Speaker 1: There were points in time in the game where it
Speaker 1: was just like he was dominating that one on one matchup.
Speaker 1: And I just think that from a value standpoint, he
Speaker 1: showed you that he can change how quarterbacks look at
Speaker 1: this defensive line because not only him, but Osa Diggi Zua.
Speaker 1: You saw him emerge. And that's all because offensive lines
Speaker 1: have to attest our account for where number eleven is
Speaker 1: at all time. He's a game wrecker. It's just this
Speaker 1: is what he does. And I believe he got sacked.
Speaker 1: He did. I think it was it was combined between
Speaker 1: him and I'll take it. Yeah, I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: disagree with you. I think that he made He's gonna
Speaker 1: make plays. It isn't. I've never disputed the fact that
Speaker 1: if you put him at he's not gonna make plays.
Speaker 1: I just think that you isolate him. And there's a
Speaker 1: many times last night I'm just like, God, dog, he's
Speaker 1: getting washed up, you know, like he's getting swallowed up
Speaker 1: by these guys, and he doesn't he doesn't have an
Speaker 1: impact on those plays. So for every for every thirty snaps,
Speaker 1: he might effect really have an effect over two plays,
Speaker 1: you know, Versus at the linebacker position, I feel like
Speaker 1: he would have an effect or at least affect the
Speaker 1: play every every single play. Like he's in the middle.
Speaker 1: He's in the thicket things, tight ends, he's in the
Speaker 1: thicket things, running backs coming through the throat to the whole.
Speaker 1: He's in the thick of things. Receivers when I come
Speaker 1: across the middle, he's in the thicket things. So I
Speaker 1: like him much better there. And I think a lot
Speaker 1: of people held their breath when he got us but
Speaker 1: chipped yesterday at the defense end position too. That's all
Speaker 1: it hurts, right, It's like, why, like what we don't
Speaker 1: have to do that. We have other guys that can
Speaker 1: go out there and put forth high effort, right, and
Speaker 1: if he's only gonna be effective on ten percent of
Speaker 1: the plays that we put him at defense end, then
Speaker 1: I'd much rather have him at the second level. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he only played. He played thirty seven snaps last night.
Speaker 1: That's actually two less snaps than he played before. We
Speaker 1: two the Chargers, and I asked Mike McCarthy about playing
Speaker 1: mostly end again, and I didn't get a specific answer
Speaker 1: of why, but I would imagine it's mostly out of necessity.
Speaker 1: I mean, you're losing. You didn't have a n eye,
Speaker 1: you didn't have tank, you didn't have Dorian's armstrong, and
Speaker 1: so they needed somebody to fill in there. And he
Speaker 1: dropped a little bit. He played a little bit off
Speaker 1: the ball, but it was mostly rushing the passer from
Speaker 1: different spots. He rushed inside, he didn't. It wasn't it
Speaker 1: was both edges. You had Randy Gregory at left end.
Speaker 1: At times they kind of took turns against Andre Dillard
Speaker 1: on the on the left side and the other guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and they had they had some success. Um, So I'm
Speaker 1: curious to see what happens when they get they get
Speaker 1: more whole. I think you're probably see him more linebacker.
Speaker 1: But it was interesting for them to say, hey, Jalen Smith,
Speaker 1: you spy Jalen Hurts and he busted his ass to
Speaker 1: do that. Good job, you know, yeah, yeah, credit to Jalen. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I have to go out of our way to give
Speaker 1: some credit to Jalen because we'd go out of our
Speaker 1: way to give criticism. And I think, you know, he's
Speaker 1: number nine, he's playing well and Layton vander Esh's crazy.
Speaker 1: What competition does well you can And I think it's
Speaker 1: another one of those crazy things when your defense knows
Speaker 1: what they're doing, when the scheme isn't so complicated that
Speaker 1: guys absolutely can't play fast. It's also amazing when you
Speaker 1: have a ninety five that the urban who can gobble
Speaker 1: up blockers for you and allow guys to scrape and
Speaker 1: shoot the gaps. And you see all of these things
Speaker 1: coming to fruition for this defense. And I look, this
Speaker 1: is only a sample size, so I don't want to
Speaker 1: jump out the cake yet. But I'm just saying the
Speaker 1: experience that Micah is getting after not playing defensive end
Speaker 1: in college only in high school, I think those things
Speaker 1: are just going to be add to what he does.
Speaker 1: So by the time we get to the end of
Speaker 1: this season, let's see what kind of defensive end he is,
Speaker 1: what kind of pressure he can get and when we
Speaker 1: bring Tank back. I like the fact that he's getting
Speaker 1: the experience. I just my thing is risk first reward. No,
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying. I mean, he's an athlete.
Speaker 1: He's a freakish athlete. He could do a lot of things.
Speaker 1: You can put him at kicker and he'll probably be okay.
Speaker 1: But but the reality is, you know, again, that was
Speaker 1: a wake up call yesterday when they chipped on him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he could have easily broke his ribs easily. He was
Speaker 1: easy upset about that after the game too, he was
Speaker 1: talking about him. Yeah, So I mean that's it's easy
Speaker 1: to target him at that when he's coming off that edge.
Speaker 1: I could pick him apart all day long, and I
Speaker 1: could put a tight end over back, but I can
Speaker 1: make sure about running back eight take his ribs out
Speaker 1: every single time. You know, those conversations happen. Sorry, people,
Speaker 1: those those things, those things happen, right. So I just
Speaker 1: don't like the risk there because where he's a because
Speaker 1: he's such an athlete, people forget that he's human. Because
Speaker 1: he's such an athlete, people forget these human Let's put
Speaker 1: him back in his human form, and let's put him
Speaker 1: back at the second level and protect him because honestly,
Speaker 1: that's where he should be in Again, last night was
Speaker 1: out of necessity, And yes, he's gonna be impactful no
Speaker 1: matter where you put him, but let's not take advantage
Speaker 1: of that to the point where all of a sudden
Speaker 1: it's too late. Yeah, money, don't make money, We'll hear you,
Speaker 1: but until until Parsons is sitting on the sideline for
Speaker 1: six games and everybody's gonna be like, why do we
Speaker 1: put him at the end. So there's no part of
Speaker 1: you that feels like, if they wanted to, they could
Speaker 1: just make him a edge rusher full time. They could,
Speaker 1: they could, But would he have the impact that he
Speaker 1: has at the second level? I think not. I don't
Speaker 1: think so either. I don't think you want him to
Speaker 1: be enough rusher. You want him to be a linebacker?
Speaker 1: You exactly. I agree with y'all. I just there was
Speaker 1: times again last night where he's screaming off the edge
Speaker 1: and it's like a violent first step and it's like,
Speaker 1: I'm much and it's cool to look at you wear
Speaker 1: style or von Miller. Yeah, it is cool to get
Speaker 1: should he be doing this this his career? But he
Speaker 1: you know, if he keeps it this should that be
Speaker 1: his role? It's also think about. But Jalen was also
Speaker 1: unbothered by a lot of it too, As I was
Speaker 1: watching it right like they was screaming off the hurts
Speaker 1: hurts me, It hurts. Was unbothered right right just to
Speaker 1: the things I was talking about, Like he steps up,
Speaker 1: slides out like you know what I'm saying, Like that
Speaker 1: was cool, Like you came off the ball fast. I
Speaker 1: was awesome. But you're not affecting me right now. Now
Speaker 1: as a collective whole, we affected him right in that
Speaker 1: particular individual, I don't think had an impact on him
Speaker 1: as much as we probably would have liked to have Seene.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I agree with that point specifically.
Speaker 1: I agree in terms of I still want him to
Speaker 1: be a linebacker with a versatility Russian pazzer. But I
Speaker 1: don't know what was that eating W's over here. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: James Jams hilarious's over here. But nothing's gonna bring me down.
Speaker 1: That's the thing about Michael Parsons is I mean, what
Speaker 1: do you always say about guys who are the energizer
Speaker 1: bunny that that bring their lunch pail and they go
Speaker 1: to work every day. Those guys are harder to go
Speaker 1: up against than the guys who are the most talented guys. Right, well,
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons has got both of those, so why not
Speaker 1: use him in most I don't disagree with you guys again,
Speaker 1: I just say sprinkle them in there, right, Salt Salt
Speaker 1: Bam says Salt baym in there. But to expect him
Speaker 1: to play that position in a consistent role for the
Speaker 1: duration of a game and expect him not to come
Speaker 1: out you just well, yeah, I mean, you know injured
Speaker 1: like that's that's not real that's just not realistic. Well,
Speaker 1: even just to play more. I mean, I don't know
Speaker 1: how many snaps they had in the game. Is over
Speaker 1: fifty five snaps and he plays thirty seven? If he's
Speaker 1: playing off the ball, then there's there's not a reason
Speaker 1: he could play fifty plus Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I
Speaker 1: want to see him as many snaps and impossible. And
Speaker 1: then Lane Johnson after the game says, man, can I
Speaker 1: get your jersey about that? Respect? That's respect for a
Speaker 1: young guy that you know is bringing in applying the
Speaker 1: pressure on the end. But my question to you is, Isaiah,
Speaker 1: when it comes down to like the salary cap and
Speaker 1: the way that front officers divvy up money. Most of
Speaker 1: the positions of importance obviously quarterback, left tackle, things like that.
Speaker 1: That's why your edge rushers make the money that they do.
Speaker 1: In cornerbacks make the money that they do because of
Speaker 1: importance and how they impact the game. You have a
Speaker 1: guy that's out there impacting the game, and that's why
Speaker 1: Tank got paid the way that he did because of
Speaker 1: his impact, and teams were chipping on Tank. They're double
Speaker 1: team and him all the time. Look, we can't go
Speaker 1: into in my mentality what it is. We can't fear
Speaker 1: any of those things. We gotta let our dog be
Speaker 1: a dog, go out there and hunt. And he showed
Speaker 1: you yesterday. When he goes out there and he's the
Speaker 1: best version of himself, teams are having to account for him.
Speaker 1: We haven't had that. We just haven't had that guy
Speaker 1: where anybody's like, hey, well I better step up. In
Speaker 1: his podcast, he gonna put me on my you know,
Speaker 1: he's gonna take my head off. I hear you, and
Speaker 1: I'm in agreeance with you, guys. I just don't want
Speaker 1: us to get greedy. You don't want it all the time.
Speaker 1: I don't want to exactly. I'm not saying don't put
Speaker 1: him out there. I say that's why I say that
Speaker 1: sprinkle right, salt bam, change up right, curveball, whatever you
Speaker 1: want to call it. But the moment you start relying
Speaker 1: on him to be there all the time and because
Speaker 1: you get greedy because he can do it, yeah, that's
Speaker 1: when you get snake bit. He's been impressive the last
Speaker 1: two weeks, absolutely no doubt. I mean, whether we go
Speaker 1: back to second level, well and whenever he's going at
Speaker 1: trust now go back. He's been very impressive, and so
Speaker 1: is that defense. But the offense is keeping up there
Speaker 1: into the bargain. When we come back here on talking cowboys.
Speaker 1: Who deserves the credit on that side of the football
Speaker 1: is the players? Is that the talent is at the
Speaker 1: front office? Is it the coaching staff. We'll answer that
Speaker 1: question when we come back on the other side of
Speaker 1: the break. Honey, big news, Gary? Are you okay? Oh?

Speaker 1: unstoppable spirit. Stetson hats are still American made with pride.

Speaker 1: alibe er Caliber dot com. All right, continuing on here,
Speaker 1: we're Talking Cowboys. Heck Ma Harris and Isaiah Stanback, Rob Phillips,
Speaker 1: Kyle Yeoman's here breaking down the cowboys forty one twenty
Speaker 1: one win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Oh I should I
Speaker 1: haven't even talked about this yet. The first place Dallas
Speaker 1: cowb the first place Dallas Cowboys two and one. Baby,
Speaker 1: they got a sole possession of the division lead because
Speaker 1: of a Giant's loss, a Washington football team loss, a
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles lost. It's a perfect week in the NFC
Speaker 1: East for the Dallas Cowboys. And hope everybody's having fun.
Speaker 1: And we talked about the defense in the first segment.
Speaker 1: Let's go into the offense again. Three hundred and eighty yards.
Speaker 1: It's the first time in six or excuse me, seven
Speaker 1: starts for Dak Prescott that the offense hasn't surpassed four
Speaker 1: hundred yards. But you didn't need them to. You put
Speaker 1: up forty points. It was as efficient as can be. Yes,
Speaker 1: there was a couple moments in that game, especially right
Speaker 1: at the beginning with the turnover in the end zone,
Speaker 1: where you thought, oh, here we go again. However, the
Speaker 1: offense was able to find a rhythm. Rob And I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't see a way you could slow them down
Speaker 1: up until this point if they stay marginally healthy. I
Speaker 1: don't know how you do it either. I think you
Speaker 1: look at a few teams through three games in the
Speaker 1: league and say that's scary. You know, it's the Cowboys
Speaker 1: and it's it's it's the teams with the best quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: Really it's you know, despite the Chiefs troubles, it's it's
Speaker 1: it's Pat Mahomes and the Chiefs. It's the Bucks and Packers.
Speaker 1: The Rams are in that conversms are in that conversation
Speaker 1: for sure. Bills have that capability. Obviously, Seahawks they're in
Speaker 1: that position because they have a guy it's under center
Speaker 1: who can command that type of attention and allow you
Speaker 1: to be as balanced as you want to be. And
Speaker 1: I mentioned the offensive line, but credit to Zeke last night.
Speaker 1: I thought he ran really well. And people want to
Speaker 1: make something of this carry distribution every week. I wrote
Speaker 1: about it last week. Mike McCarthy. I looked at the
Speaker 1: date on July twenty ninth. He told us, we're gonna
Speaker 1: do this. You know, there's gonna be games where we
Speaker 1: do this because we're worried. Not worried. They are cognizant
Speaker 1: of how many carries he's had throughout his career, so
Speaker 1: they want to manage it. They want to keep him fresh.
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard showing they should play him more. I mean
Speaker 1: they both had five and a half yards of carry.
Speaker 1: They're keeping each other fresh. There's nothing wrong with a
Speaker 1: thunder and lightning approach. We've seen it work in the NFL.
Speaker 1: People just look at Zeke's salary and don't understand it.
Speaker 1: The checks he's getting paid. So take that out of
Speaker 1: the equation, and what they've got cooking is really good.
Speaker 1: I love that. I love taking the money out of
Speaker 1: the equation. Play who's the better player or at least
Speaker 1: has the hot hand. I won't say that Pollard's a
Speaker 1: better player than Zeke. I don't believe that, but the
Speaker 1: Polers have the hot hand. Play them if he needs
Speaker 1: to be played. Isn't the point to win games? Exactly?
Speaker 1: And that's what isn't not the whole point? Like you
Speaker 1: build a roster so that you can win games, regardless
Speaker 1: of who's getting paid what like, So the heck, what
Speaker 1: Deck's throwing the ball twenty six times a game? What
Speaker 1: if I complaining about him making you know, forty plus
Speaker 1: million dollars a year? That's like, come on, dude, Like
Speaker 1: it's about winning ball games. It doesn't matter how you
Speaker 1: do it. If if Zeke doesn't care, why should anybody
Speaker 1: else care? And he said it last week. Nobody else
Speaker 1: is signing the checks or sending the wires or whatever.
Speaker 1: I mean, Like, so what is it? What does it matter?
Speaker 1: We got something going. It's it's a good recipe for
Speaker 1: a seven. It's a seventeen game season now too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's true. And what you're looking at him is the
Speaker 1: national media just cowboy haters in general that want to
Speaker 1: stare up something between trying to break this up exactly.
Speaker 1: And look, when Zeke answered the question after the Tampa game, Look,
Speaker 1: it's not about what shows up on the stat sheet.
Speaker 1: It's about the things that you dolittle, things that don't
Speaker 1: show up. If that was said by anyone else, they
Speaker 1: would be like, that's a team first guy. But you know,
Speaker 1: that's kind of coaches speak thing, and most people applaud that.
Speaker 1: But for some reason, when Zeke says that, no one
Speaker 1: actually listens to him say that. So, and then when
Speaker 1: he comes out and has the game like he does,
Speaker 1: and people, oh my god, eleven Tony Pollard had eleven
Speaker 1: carriages for sixty yards and he had his longest run
Speaker 1: was eleven yards. Zeke's longest was thirteen yards. So but
Speaker 1: these are things that get lost in translation, when you
Speaker 1: talk about two guys and the thunder and lightning, if
Speaker 1: you don't like that, change up. Yeah, a guy that
Speaker 1: comes in and offers something different, and I think the
Speaker 1: speed of Tony Pollard for defenses when he comes into
Speaker 1: the game, you have to account for that, and just
Speaker 1: they're paranoid of it. And now the rest of the
Speaker 1: league is going to be on that same thing when
Speaker 1: they see twenty come into the ball game. So again,
Speaker 1: that's why I ask you the question about play actions
Speaker 1: because to me, when Kellen Moore has play action in
Speaker 1: his back, when he starts off with that, teams don't
Speaker 1: know what we're going to do. We don't they don't know.
Speaker 1: And Dak is seeing the field so well right now
Speaker 1: that all of the haters, all the people that did
Speaker 1: the comparison thing with Wins and the Detroit quarterback man,
Speaker 1: where are those guys now? And look at where Dak
Speaker 1: is in his career and the way that he's playing.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, we're not gonna forget about you haters,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna call you out on it every time.
Speaker 1: One more thing about the running game. I wrote this
Speaker 1: last weekend. I didn't check Week three stats, but There's
Speaker 1: only two guys in the entire league through two weeks
Speaker 1: of the regular season that had twenty five carries. No
Speaker 1: team is really doing this. Some of it's the way
Speaker 1: the game is going. It's more past centric, and some
Speaker 1: of it is more two back combos. And if you've
Speaker 1: got two backs, who can do it, do it? Use? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you see it working in Cleveland. I mean Kareem Hunt
Speaker 1: had a huge day yesterday and Nick Chubb's the one
Speaker 1: that's getting paid, right. I mean it happens all the
Speaker 1: time where there's two backs their complimentary and going back
Speaker 1: to Heckama's point, teams look at these two backs and say,
Speaker 1: oh gosh, Zeke can get outside, but man, he is
Speaker 1: a powerful back inside. Oh Tony Pollard, Man, he can
Speaker 1: get outside, but he can still run through the tackles
Speaker 1: if he needs to. People like flashy. Let's just call
Speaker 1: a spade a spade. People like flashy, people like seeing
Speaker 1: the burst. The reality is, Zeke's been running like this
Speaker 1: all year. Yeah he has. He's been running like this
Speaker 1: all freaking year. He put the work in this offseason,
Speaker 1: he lost some weight, he became more explosive, He got
Speaker 1: with a coach. They helped him with his cuts right,
Speaker 1: that boy's shift is all get out. He's being deliberate,
Speaker 1: he's putting his foot in the ground, he's getting vertical.
Speaker 1: He steals Zeke people were forgetting Oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: as I'm looking at his stats, he averaged four and
Speaker 1: a half yards per carry over his career, and guess
Speaker 1: where he's at right now, four to four and a
Speaker 1: half yards per carry. So like people like that were
Speaker 1: hype on Zeke for all these years, and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden they want to be a Zeke ad because
Speaker 1: he had some fumbles last year when we when we
Speaker 1: freaking had our seventeenth string or up as a line
Speaker 1: in like, get off of this dude. This dude is
Speaker 1: the same player. He's probably just more explosive now than
Speaker 1: he was then. He just hasn't had the breakout runs
Speaker 1: that Paula's had. Sold the heck what sold the heck what?
Speaker 1: That's not what they're asking him to do. They're asking
Speaker 1: that dude to be freaking consistent, to be powerful, to
Speaker 1: be healthy, right and continue to make the blocks and
Speaker 1: protect number four when he when he when he's not
Speaker 1: tolding the ball, and continue to do your job as
Speaker 1: as to RB one. Oh oh, I got one. I
Speaker 1: got one. Did anybody see Dalton Schultz last night? I mean,
Speaker 1: what about this guy carving out a role as a
Speaker 1: possession receiver on this team. That boy wants that he
Speaker 1: wants to swap the salaries, that is what he wants
Speaker 1: to do. He may get a chance. I mean he
Speaker 1: was real the first multi touchdown game of his career.
Speaker 1: The second one was just nutty. The way he was
Speaker 1: able to weave through the defense and then find the
Speaker 1: end zone. It was awesome. I like his approach to
Speaker 1: the game. Oh yeah, it's sgnificant. I mean controversy, but
Speaker 1: between him and if you had, compared to him and Jarwin,
Speaker 1: I'm starting shows who said somebody said it last night
Speaker 1: that he's he's like first in last to leave. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's really really worked at his game because when he
Speaker 1: first got here there were things he had to get
Speaker 1: better at. I mean, he's still evolving as a blocker,
Speaker 1: and that's really what they need. But we we've talked
Speaker 1: about the way they're trying to play this Cowboy's offense.
Speaker 1: There's opportunities for a tight end underneath to make a
Speaker 1: bunch of plays. And it goes back to Kellen Moore,
Speaker 1: like the changing up the personnel and the different packages,
Speaker 1: like they went twelve a lot last night and had
Speaker 1: success with it. Or you know you don't have Michael Gallup, fine,
Speaker 1: we can still go three. Why we can spread you out.
Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson played well, but we can do a lot
Speaker 1: of different things, and I'm constantly off balance on what
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore is gonna do, which is awesome. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: what you want. That's some sign of a good play caller. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: How about that tweet from Nick last night saying that
Speaker 1: we'd gone twenty games before the last two games without
Speaker 1: a scoring drive on our first drive, and now we've
Speaker 1: had two back to back. I mean, it just makes
Speaker 1: things so much easier. And again, the efficiency of this
Speaker 1: offense I'm loving. I had questions list like everybody else
Speaker 1: after the Tampa game when we didn't run that much.
Speaker 1: I can see now when you see other teams facing
Speaker 1: Tampa how they have just completely abandoned the run and
Speaker 1: we've given them the blueprint rams thank you very much.
Speaker 1: I know a blueprint when I see one. They took
Speaker 1: our blueprint on how to beat Tampa Bay and just look,
Speaker 1: I just look as much criticism as we've given Kelly
Speaker 1: Moore and last night obviously the reverse down in the
Speaker 1: red zone. I didn't like that, but I think that
Speaker 1: was just kind of rubbing it in your little brother's
Speaker 1: face if you actually get a touchdown there, because you
Speaker 1: know I'm running reverse on you on the goal line,
Speaker 1: I don't respect your defense at all. So that was
Speaker 1: what that was. Gamesmanship. Those things you can I mean
Speaker 1: the sack fumble, touchdown, deciding to throw out of their fine.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's aggressive, he's gonna that's his style.
Speaker 1: I just say, there's two guys last night that you
Speaker 1: their performance before national TV. That's what gets people's attention.
Speaker 1: Trayvon Diggs, that's the kind of performance that, like Pro
Speaker 1: Bowl voters will remember if he keeps having this type
Speaker 1: of you know, when you do it on Thanksgiving, you
Speaker 1: do it on primetime. The other thing is Kellen Moore
Speaker 1: doing this in front of primetime audience. Like when it
Speaker 1: comes time for coaching vacancies around in the league, there's
Speaker 1: gonna be fans out there. You know, teams are gonna
Speaker 1: do what they're gonna do, but fans like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I watched him on Week three, Man they were. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they were really, like he's selling, that was a national
Speaker 1: attention game for Kellen Moore as a play caller. That's
Speaker 1: a great point because Trayvon Diggs hasn't really had that
Speaker 1: coming out party, that big time game, because I mean,
Speaker 1: even as well as he's played throughout the season and
Speaker 1: even into the back half of last year, the Cowboys
Speaker 1: weren't center stage. Last night. They were center stage, and
Speaker 1: he stole the show. And on the defensive side of
Speaker 1: the football. Same thing with Kellen Moore on the offensive side.
Speaker 1: And both of those guys are continuing to ascend, and
Speaker 1: that's an exciting thing for this Boys organization. All right,
Speaker 1: let's step aside. When we come back, it's time for
Speaker 1: smelly stickers. For the second straight week the Cowboys get
Speaker 1: a win, we give our game ball quote. I guess
Speaker 1: we call it smelly stickers, but we're gonna talk about

Speaker 1: it's good? What is that? That's okay? It's good all right.
Speaker 1: Time for smelly stickers. This is a tradition we have
Speaker 1: on talking to cowboys. We did it virtually last year,
Speaker 1: but now that we're back in studio, we're actually we
Speaker 1: actually have our helmet. Chris, I don't know if we
Speaker 1: can get a little close up here. We have our helmet.
Speaker 1: Here's are the four stickers from last week from the
Speaker 1: win over the Chargers. There we go, so Zach Martin,
Speaker 1: Terrence Steele, Tony Pollard, Michael Parsons. We've got our smelly
Speaker 1: stickers from last week and we use them pretty much
Speaker 1: as helmet stickers or game balls. I should say is
Speaker 1: whoever our player of the game is, we'll get a
Speaker 1: smelly sticker and it'll be on the Cowboys helmet after
Speaker 1: every Cowboys wins circuit. Heckma, I'm gonna let you start
Speaker 1: things off because I really like yours overall, because goodness, gracious,
Speaker 1: you've got a good one. You're given away. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: my smelly sticker is gonna be mango sited really good
Speaker 1: manna like this, But my smelly sticker goes to eighteen
Speaker 1: and T Stadium. The fans at AT and T Stadium
Speaker 1: last night for the first time in a very long time,
Speaker 1: the fans were off the chain last night. And there's
Speaker 1: all the sugnission of home field advantage bake bs to that,
Speaker 1: because last night, boy, it looked like what Happy Valley does.
Speaker 1: Somebody say, it looked like Happy Valley. Parsons said that,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you a college environment. Last night at AT
Speaker 1: and T, Cowboy fans, y'all, y'all showed up and showed out.
Speaker 1: There you go, So Cowboys fans get the first one.
Speaker 1: Who's your smelly sticker? Kyle? Thanks for buying these? Do
Speaker 1: you do you expense these? No? Like, say ninety nine cents? Nick? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Thanks Nick All. I'm gonna go Osa a Diggy Zoos
Speaker 1: say that again. Osa a Diggi zoas one and a
Speaker 1: half sacks, two quarterback hits out of five on Jalen
Speaker 1: Hurts consistently in the backfield making plays. Wasn't supposed to
Speaker 1: be a starter necessarily week one as a rookie. He's
Speaker 1: one of these young guys that's, you know, already three
Speaker 1: weeks into the season, he's making an impact, and they
Speaker 1: should only you know, when you've got this many young
Speaker 1: players making plays over the course of seventeen games, your
Speaker 1: defense should just continue to get better. He's been. He's
Speaker 1: been really, really good, and we saw it in training camp,
Speaker 1: but to be able to carry it over to games
Speaker 1: against really good offensive players, it's impressive. And you needed
Speaker 1: him to step up without Neville Gallimore and without Carlos
Speaker 1: Watkins as well. I mean, they were missing two guys
Speaker 1: on the interior to where you needed somebody to step up,
Speaker 1: and Osa was one of those guys that did that.
Speaker 1: So I really like that one as well. All right, Isaiah, Oh,
Speaker 1: you're scratching and you're sniffing. It's pineapple, Like pineapple. Pineapple
Speaker 1: is my favorite fruit. Anybody knew that. Um, I'm going
Speaker 1: with Kellen Moore. Kelly Moore is in his bag and
Speaker 1: he's very acidic to the defense that he's facing. I
Speaker 1: see what you did there, You see what I do there. Um,
Speaker 1: he's been a thorn in their side. Uh. I think
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore is doing a dog I thing, you know.
Speaker 1: I think he's he's he's being very verstile. It is
Speaker 1: offerings and he's using he's using the talent that he has.
Speaker 1: Even Connor freaking McGovern in the backfield as a full back.
Speaker 1: The fridge. Yeah, the fridge. Yeah, you're going on. You
Speaker 1: got to explain that the people refrigerator pass right, the
Speaker 1: big dog shown but yeah, no, hey, sway sticker going
Speaker 1: to Kellen Moore. You never thought you would see your
Speaker 1: Connor bros. On the same side of the field. Huh
Speaker 1: uh No. But the way which they were utilized, they
Speaker 1: were effective. So it was good. There you go, There
Speaker 1: you go. So Isaiah's putting his on. So we've had
Speaker 1: the fans, we've had I got SpongeBob over there. Now
Speaker 1: there you go. Uh put them next week. We've had
Speaker 1: Osaki Zoo, We've had Kellen Moore. I'm gonna go ahead
Speaker 1: and go with the obvious one since we haven't talked
Speaker 1: about him yet. Tray Von Diggs, baby John fossil Us, Um, Yeah,
Speaker 1: probably not. Man. He was sweet to watch last night,
Speaker 1: huh I'm trying to pull. I've got a cupcake smelly sticker.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm gonna say Trayvon Diggs, I mean, goodness, gracious,
Speaker 1: another interception. He's the first Cowboys defender since Everson Walls
Speaker 1: to have picks in the first three games of the season.
Speaker 1: And not only that man, he blanketed whoever he was covering.
Speaker 1: I mean, of course, Philadelphia has a couple different weapons
Speaker 1: Jalen Rager, Quez Watkins and Davante Smith. It didn't matter
Speaker 1: who he was covering. Trayvon Diggs is a dude. So
Speaker 1: we've gotten our smelly stickers hooked up on the back
Speaker 1: of the helmet. You can go at an adders. Hecka,
Speaker 1: I know you didn't pull it out of the package,
Speaker 1: but uh but yeah. So Cowboys gonna win forty one
Speaker 1: twenty one. Now, looking ahead to this week, we're of
Speaker 1: course going to preview the Carolina Panthers. But an undefeated
Speaker 1: Carolina team comes to challenging three and oh now they
Speaker 1: are a little banged up. Yes they are. No Christian McCaffrey, yes,
Speaker 1: no jac Horn. Yes, but they did go and get C. J.
Speaker 1: Henderson from McCaffrey's out a few weeks few weeks. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they didn't put him on IR, which means he could
Speaker 1: return whenever. But I think the thought is after week
Speaker 1: four they would probably play him. Did they have to
Speaker 1: do that trade? Right before they played us? They traded
Speaker 1: a tight end in a third round pick to Jacksonville
Speaker 1: four C J. Henderson, who was the number nine overall
Speaker 1: pick a year ago. Really good corner, at least coming
Speaker 1: out of Florida. Yep. Kind of struggled a little bit,
Speaker 1: but he's still got some skill. Yep. Well, maybe the
Speaker 1: Cowboys get Kelvin Joseph back very soon. He's eligible this week,
Speaker 1: so we'll see. We'll talk to Mike, see where he's at.
Speaker 1: Anybody else eligible this week? Or is it just Joseph?
Speaker 1: Everybody who started the season on IR technically is I
Speaker 1: don't you know? I don't Neville Gallimore is not ready,
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup. I don't think it's ready yet. But oh
Speaker 1: he's He's still got a couple he would have one
Speaker 1: more week, right, Yeah. I want to see Sam Donald.
Speaker 1: I want to see him. We owe him from that
Speaker 1: Jets victory a couple of years ago, and it is
Speaker 1: payback time. He had no business and he had a
Speaker 1: performance versus us that had everybody second guess and the
Speaker 1: way that the Jets looked at him, and I thought
Speaker 1: it was completely flukeish. But Sam Donald, it's your birthday.
Speaker 1: I like this stretch of stretch of games we have
Speaker 1: coming up after Carolina. It's a tough game we got
Speaker 1: this week. This week, I like that. Feeling pretty good.
Speaker 1: I like this stretch now I'm still feeling pretty good.
Speaker 1: I mean Cowboys are the first place. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and even though both teams are a little banked up,
Speaker 1: I still feel good about the matchup that you would
Speaker 1: have Carolina. We're gonna preview it starting tomorrow. We'll talk
Speaker 1: about the Carolina offense going up again up against the
Speaker 1: Cowboys defense, and then we'll also flip it on Thursday.
Speaker 1: What was that you're looking at it? It still? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're getting excited or you got it up? Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: your expectation. Patriots, Vikings, Broncos, Plkins. What you're feeling fifteen
Speaker 1: and one? Or where are we going here? And then
Speaker 1: we played the Chiefs. Let's we'll get that later on.
