0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:11.200
<v Speaker 1>that game today. By the end of this show, we'll

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 1>give you our predictions of what we think will happen.

0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Let's start first, though, with a couple injuries that are

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:18.400
<v Speaker 1>coming out of the last game, and what you guys

0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:21.040
<v Speaker 1>are hearing or thinking from the standpoint of these guys

0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:24.760
<v Speaker 1>being available this weekend. Let's start first with Jason Peters. Yesterday, Brian,

0:01:24.800 --> 0:01:27.960
<v Speaker 1>you said you don't think that's going to happen. I don't,

0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I don't think that's going to happen. That's

0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:31.600
<v Speaker 1>a hip flexer and you know, and he was off

0:01:31.600 --> 0:01:34.319
<v Speaker 1>on the side and stuff working yesterday. I just don't

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:36.280
<v Speaker 1>know if he can get ready fast enough for that.

0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>So and unless something changes, you know, sometimes these players

0:01:40.600 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>when it turns into playoff football and they kind of

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:46.320
<v Speaker 1>see where they have to be or need to be,

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 1>that maybe that they find a way. But I just

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:51.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't get the vibe that that one was going to

0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>be a possibility this week. Nick, what are you hearing

0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:58.559
<v Speaker 1>about jay Ron Curse? Well, these two guys, it's backwards.

0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 1>It's really weird on it. I mean, if you looked

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 1>at these two guys yesterday, which guy is limited and

0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:07.480
<v Speaker 1>could probably play and which guy's not gonna play? You

0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:10.040
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't he would though the other way around. Kurse didn't

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.760
<v Speaker 1>have any any equipment on at all. He walked out there.

0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:15.480
<v Speaker 1>He had a big sleeve on his knee. He walked

0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:18.200
<v Speaker 1>out through some rehab and they called him limited. I

0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:19.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know what happened after that. I don't know if

0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:21.960
<v Speaker 1>he got Superman and he got his stuff on and

0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 1>he was limited. So I think he's gonna play, but

0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:29.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't I don't expect him to be really, really effective.

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:32.959
<v Speaker 1>He's limping around now. He doesn't look good. He's limping around.

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>I get he wants to play. I get it. He's

0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:36.959
<v Speaker 1>talked about the forty nine ers more than the forty

0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:39.520
<v Speaker 1>nine ers have talked about themselves. He's talked about this

0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:42.519
<v Speaker 1>game for a whole year. But I don't know. I

0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:44.320
<v Speaker 1>was told to me that this is kind of similar

0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:46.320
<v Speaker 1>to what happened in Week one against the Bucks. Well

0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:49.079
<v Speaker 1>he missed four games, So yeah, I don't know. Well,

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:51.560
<v Speaker 1>you know you know what stuff here is like, Okay,

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:53.440
<v Speaker 1>you got a guy that definitely wants to play in

0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:56.120
<v Speaker 1>a couple Yeah, a couple of days ago, he was

0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.639
<v Speaker 1>saying he's one hundred percent ready to go and all that.

0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Then you see that i'd probably this, But then you

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 1>get to this point where do you go all in

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 1>and just put him out there and see how much

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:12.720
<v Speaker 1>he can handle or do you try to protect whatever

0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>injury and try to hope he's better for what's to come.

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:20.040
<v Speaker 1>So it's like one of those do you go all

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:24.440
<v Speaker 1>in or protect to thinking, Okay, where were playing next

0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Giants or Eagles and is he gonna be ready for

0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:29.640
<v Speaker 1>that or the Super Bowl? So I don't know which way,

0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:33.520
<v Speaker 1>but I would assume they go with protecting the player

0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>and his contetion. But at the same times, there are

0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 1>sometimes where you need to hear, like how the player

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 1>is actually feeling, and then you get maybe him come

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:45.640
<v Speaker 1>and we know this, We hear all the time players

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 1>saying I'm good, I'm good, I'm good. So it's just

0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:51.640
<v Speaker 1>it's tough to evaluate. But like Nick said, he didn't

0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>look like someone that's out there and you're running out

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 1>of day though too. You know. That's the thing about

0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:03.360
<v Speaker 1>it is the thing that that it's it's interesting is that, uh,

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:05.200
<v Speaker 1>you know with his knee. It was one of those

0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:08.120
<v Speaker 1>things where he got hurt in the pregame, remember, and

0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 1>then all of a sudden he comes back and plays yeah,

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, and so now you're kind of like, is

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:17.239
<v Speaker 1>it something that he deals with or is this something

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 1>you know? But Nicks knicks right, I forgot about that game.

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:24.320
<v Speaker 1>He was literally granted, they're carrying him off, they're carrying

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 1>him out of the out of the off the literally

0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:30.919
<v Speaker 1>the next thing lining up. And it always reminds me

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.120
<v Speaker 1>of the of the Byron Jones, like sitting on the

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:37.599
<v Speaker 1>field and putting his knee back in place that one

0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:40.839
<v Speaker 1>time in a game, and I'm thinking like, like, man,

0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:44.279
<v Speaker 1>these guys, but we'll see, we'll see. I mean the

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:47.919
<v Speaker 1>whole thing I think that you know, these guys want

0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 1>to play. Are they all you know? Is it? Are

0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 1>they all completely healthy? No? But are they are they

0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:57.120
<v Speaker 1>eighty percent? Are they seventy five percent? You know, that's

0:04:57.200 --> 0:04:59.600
<v Speaker 1>that's where you have to kind of find out. You know,

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I will say they will do. Maybe a guy like

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Peters is you know, if he doesn't have to start,

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.160
<v Speaker 1>May can you be the backup? You know, can you

0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:09.720
<v Speaker 1>go through and be the backup if you had to play,

0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.919
<v Speaker 1>you know, in this game? Could you give us thirty plays?

0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:15.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's that's the thing. Or you know you

0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 1>worry about that because you're kind of a little bit

0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 1>of a buy now with a couple of situations the kicker,

0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 1>the tackle and then the safety. So now you're trying

0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:27.919
<v Speaker 1>to think about your forty eight. You know, you go

0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:29.720
<v Speaker 1>out there and you run Curse out there on that

0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 1>field and it works for like it did for a

0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:35.719
<v Speaker 1>Maury Cooper and the Jets game where he went five

0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.719
<v Speaker 1>plays and now you're down, you know where you could

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:41.080
<v Speaker 1>have like you know, these guys will want to give

0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 1>it a go. But you know, your numbers also are

0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:45.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of in a weird situation right now to you

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.760
<v Speaker 1>because last last week there was like, you know, ten

0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:54.000
<v Speaker 1>dbs versus ten defensive linemen. And while you would think

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 1>ten defensive lineman might make more sense in a game

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:59.320
<v Speaker 1>like this or a team likes to run. But if Curses,

0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 1>if he and let's say Marquis Bell is that last

0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 1>guy that was up he was activated last week, he

0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:07.479
<v Speaker 1>might be the guy activated again. He might be because

0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:10.599
<v Speaker 1>because you need depth at safety for that for that

0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 1>situation that Brian's talking about there. But McCarthy said he's

0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 1>in everything. You know, he made it sound like Curses

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:22.080
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be okay, So we'll see. I mean, you know,

0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Curse is talking like they're in their way. Forty tims

0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:25.919
<v Speaker 1>are in our way of what we want to go

0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 1>and all this kind of stuff. I mean, I just

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:29.560
<v Speaker 1>think he's saying all the things that make it sound

0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:33.719
<v Speaker 1>like he will play. I just wonder with last week

0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:35.680
<v Speaker 1>what they did with Mkuamu in the middle of the

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:38.440
<v Speaker 1>field and all these different things, these packages that have

0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 1>to happen. I wonder, with Curse not being a part

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 1>of some of the practicing, just how effective he's going

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 1>to be. I'm not trying to doubt him, because I mean,

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:50.400
<v Speaker 1>he plays with will, he plays strong, But I mean this,

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:53.119
<v Speaker 1>this isn't a great sign for him. Well you would

0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 1>think based on those four games that he was out

0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:59.159
<v Speaker 1>and the Cowboys defense doesn't go just basically to nothing

0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 1>without him. Wilson, Yeah, I mean, Donovan Wilson can play

0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.400
<v Speaker 1>the position, and you feel really good about what Donovan

0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:07.800
<v Speaker 1>Wilson can provide for you. So in the event that

0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.280
<v Speaker 1>he can't play or isn't quite as effective as you want,

0:07:10.360 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 1>you do have some recourse there, right, Sure. Yeah. The

0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:16.040
<v Speaker 1>thing about this game though, is to me, you know

0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:18.400
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna need all the downhill players you can get,

0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 1>and Curse is a downhill player. Wilson's a downhill player.

0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Vander Esh is a downhill player, you know, I mean

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.920
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna need as many of those bodies running, you know,

0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 1>getting to the outside. And if he doesn't play, I

0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:33.120
<v Speaker 1>actually think I would go with Jabril Cox before I

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:37.000
<v Speaker 1>would go with with or if you need some depth there,

0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.000
<v Speaker 1>I may go with Jabril Cox. I know that they're

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 1>playing different spots, but I think, like Brian saying, I

0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>think I think a guy closer to the line of

0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 1>scrimmage would would be a guy would be where curses

0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.520
<v Speaker 1>playing as opposed to be an app in the back end.

0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I just asked somebody in the organization the question we're

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:58.600
<v Speaker 1>pondering right now. Answer was, we'll play, we'll play, We'll play.

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.120
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, there you go. I'm sorry I let

0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:05.920
<v Speaker 1>you guys down. Well played. I wanted to get that in.

0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 1>But we were talking about I said, you know what,

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:10.920
<v Speaker 1>stop messing around here. Brought us ask a question. And

0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>that's my favorite clip on the internet is that I

0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:16.240
<v Speaker 1>showed this to Brian because this was something Brian would do.

0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:19.480
<v Speaker 1>It was a basketball announcer pre game. His name is

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Scott Hastings, and he's getting, you know, from the studio.

0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 1>They're like, you think I was gonna play, they're shooting.

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>He turned around he's like, hey, are you playing and

0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the guy's like shooting. He's like Noah, He's like he

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:33.640
<v Speaker 1>ain't playing. And I sent that to Brian. I was like,

0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>you would do that because Brian's like, hold on, let

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:37.400
<v Speaker 1>me just text someone. I think we did. I think

0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:39.360
<v Speaker 1>we did that one time. I think there was a

0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:41.800
<v Speaker 1>pregame show that we did something from the field as

0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:43.959
<v Speaker 1>the guy and he asked the guy. I'm like it

0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:46.320
<v Speaker 1>was Philip Tanner or something like that, like we turned around,

0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:48.560
<v Speaker 1>Hey you win today, and he's like yeah, I'm good.

0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, okay, yeah, we're gonna get something. He's playing

0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 1>breaking news. You can always tell well shoes to pre

0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.880
<v Speaker 1>game when they you know, yeah, the tape. The tape

0:08:56.960 --> 0:09:00.240
<v Speaker 1>got the Jordans on like he ain't going, well, okay,

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:02.559
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, you're you're gonna get a You're gonna get

0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:06.400
<v Speaker 1>a positive then from from so I think the safety

0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:09.400
<v Speaker 1>condition let's see, like again how long? But like I said,

0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:11.200
<v Speaker 1>these guys aren't going to put people out there that

0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 1>are hurt. They're very mindful of that. But they also

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.760
<v Speaker 1>know how tough their team is. And I got like,

0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Curse wants to play in this game. Yeah, here's your

0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:20.480
<v Speaker 1>third question, you said you said safety kicker and then

0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>you said tackle. Uh, what I say is defensive tackle.

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:28.559
<v Speaker 1>What did I say, safety kicker? He said, Oh, well,

0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:31.240
<v Speaker 1>we'll tackle as far as the backup tackle like that

0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:34.880
<v Speaker 1>if you want. Oh yeah, yeah, no Peters, Yeah no Peters.

0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:37.280
<v Speaker 1>You have to kind of figure that out. Take Collins. Maybe,

0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how well he was up last week. Yeah,

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:41.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what the elevation rules are in the playoffs?

0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:44.679
<v Speaker 1>Can you just keep elevating? Guys? I start zero again.

0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:47.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. This is all I ask that question

0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:52.160
<v Speaker 1>to somebody else. I mean, divisional games is new. You know,

0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:55.199
<v Speaker 1>the last time we come back for the after the

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:58.319
<v Speaker 1>there was no elevation talk. Well, with these injuries, does

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:02.199
<v Speaker 1>that complicate things for guy? Is that last week weren't

0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:04.760
<v Speaker 1>didn't make it to the active roster and maybe even

0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 1>if the Cowboys necessarily wanted to bring him back up.

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Do you have some of those issues now where you like,

0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:11.760
<v Speaker 1>maybe we need to bring an extra safety because we

0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know if Curse can make it through a full game.

0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 1>We don't have Peters. Maybe we need an extra offensive

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where where it all comes from, but

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:23.079
<v Speaker 1>do you think that that now affects people like Bohannah Gallimore,

0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:27.000
<v Speaker 1>even nay Sean Wright. Yeah, yes, and it also affects

0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:28.880
<v Speaker 1>if they want to bring up a kicker, if they

0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:31.680
<v Speaker 1>want to do that. Yeah, I don't think they're going

0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to do that, but with any of those guys, well,

0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:36.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about just with the kicker, Okay, I mean

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:39.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they're going to elevate him. Um. I

0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:41.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I could be wrong there, but I think

0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:45.920
<v Speaker 1>for what happened in practice yesterday, what happened in practice,

0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I know there was some reports coming in. My heart

0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 1>made his kicks. Yes, I think his six made them

0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:54.600
<v Speaker 1>all just guy you know, three, five, three or five? Yeah,

0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:58.800
<v Speaker 1>and the one one of them that he made, I mean,

0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 1>like that thing. That thing was like slicing in like

0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:05.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was practice squad elevations, reset for the playoffs,

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Reset for the playoffs. Yeah, awesome. So we're two for

0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:14.839
<v Speaker 1>two todays. Ask someone if the kicker is going to

0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:19.240
<v Speaker 1>come in here? Yeah, let's just keep asking questions the show.

0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm running out. I'll be texting you guys here in

0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:27.680
<v Speaker 1>a minute, two different two different people there. Yeah. Nice, Yeah, Yeah,

0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:29.679
<v Speaker 1>I would think I was here for fourteen years. The

0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:32.240
<v Speaker 1>same time I was here. You got here too, Yeah,

0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.160
<v Speaker 1>we were came at the same time. I just kind

0:11:35.200 --> 0:11:37.960
<v Speaker 1>of you were a lot of You were a lot

0:11:38.000 --> 0:11:39.600
<v Speaker 1>better doing it. You were a lot better doing your

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:42.560
<v Speaker 1>job than I was. Who are you have in your phone?

0:11:42.640 --> 0:11:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Hold on? I don't know? All right? Nobody? Um, I

0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:49.400
<v Speaker 1>guess though, we're wearing white Sox this week? How about

0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:53.960
<v Speaker 1>that nice scoop um so so you think that and

0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:56.760
<v Speaker 1>you talked about it going against a run heavy team.

0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you think there's a need for for guys like

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:01.160
<v Speaker 1>Bohanna and gall More to be active this week? Or

0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:03.840
<v Speaker 1>do you think you know, we got Watkins, you got Osa,

0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:06.800
<v Speaker 1>you got Hankins like you got defensive tackles that can

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>hold it down. Do you think they're gonna need more

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:12.560
<v Speaker 1>bodies this week? Yeah? I could see one more guy.

0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:14.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, but then again, I'm not getting into what

0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:16.480
<v Speaker 1>dan Quinn's trying to do and all that he's got

0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.840
<v Speaker 1>a plan for it. It just surprice those last week

0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:22.760
<v Speaker 1>with kind of the combination the guys that he went with.

0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we were in the press box looking at

0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:28.040
<v Speaker 1>the inactives and we're like, oh, that's that's interesting. So,

0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 1>like you said, dan Quinn, who knows what he got

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.439
<v Speaker 1>in store this week. It's kind of funny though, when

0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:38.280
<v Speaker 1>you think about training camp, Gallimore and Bohanna, we're talking

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 1>about them. You know, Oh, these guys are starting their

0:12:40.920 --> 0:12:43.120
<v Speaker 1>first team. You know, just how how? And I think

0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:45.600
<v Speaker 1>at one point they both did they both were starting.

0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:48.120
<v Speaker 1>And now you've got you know, they traded for Hankins,

0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:50.839
<v Speaker 1>You've got Carlos Watkins who they had cut and brought

0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>back and was on the lot. He makes play. Yes,

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:57.640
<v Speaker 1>he's a good defensive tack he really is. There's I was.

0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:00.719
<v Speaker 1>I was visiting with some people that know him very

0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:04.199
<v Speaker 1>very well, and the part when he got released from

0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 1>the team was very eye opening to him. I mean

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:09.600
<v Speaker 1>that that that's something he conveyed. It's like because they

0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:11.920
<v Speaker 1>were asking, my man, you're having a great year doing this,

0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:14.760
<v Speaker 1>that and the other. He says, when I got released,

0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:19.080
<v Speaker 1>that opened my eyes to what I need to do.

0:13:19.480 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 1>And sometimes that's what when all of a sudden they say, hey,

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.480
<v Speaker 1>we don't need you anymore, and then you're like, whoa,

0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I just went from no one, you know, being comfortable

0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:29.000
<v Speaker 1>here too. Now you don't need me anymore. Are you

0:13:29.040 --> 0:13:32.520
<v Speaker 1>say when you got released in the Texans or Cowboys? Yeah,

0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:36.040
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys. Yeah, it was very much a whoa kind

0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:38.160
<v Speaker 1>of a moment for him. Yeah, Yeah, he's he's he

0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:40.440
<v Speaker 1>is a really I think, a really productive player. They

0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:43.320
<v Speaker 1>had defensive tack man. You know what, I think that

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:46.120
<v Speaker 1>maybe what you guys saw from the press box at

0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Raymond James the other day was the fact that that

0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Tampa wasn't going to run the ball, and all of

0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:55.000
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, it's like, get up the field, get up

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:57.000
<v Speaker 1>the field, guys, And that's what you had. That's who

0:13:57.040 --> 0:13:59.720
<v Speaker 1>you dressed. You dressed get up the field guys. But

0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:02.200
<v Speaker 1>you did get a little bit with Gholston, a guy

0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:05.240
<v Speaker 1>that can play the run. So it wasn't like Osa's

0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>a get up the field guy. Gholston's more of an

0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:11.360
<v Speaker 1>end playing tackle that kind of can do a little bit.

0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:15.240
<v Speaker 1>But I think his Gholston's best best attributes or his

0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:18.000
<v Speaker 1>ability to play the run. Yeah, So we'll see this week.

0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:21.000
<v Speaker 1>What did you guys see from Xavier Rhodes last week?

0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:23.480
<v Speaker 1>And do you think there's a chance that maybe he

0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:26.600
<v Speaker 1>gets replaced by Nashan Wright this week as a guy

0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.360
<v Speaker 1>that kind of comes up to be maybe your fourth

0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:31.240
<v Speaker 1>corner if you if you like what you saw from Quama,

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:34.600
<v Speaker 1>if you believe in conspiracy theories, dan Quinn was holding

0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:37.760
<v Speaker 1>back Izzy, not letting anybody know that who was going

0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:41.000
<v Speaker 1>to be his real corner going forward, that let's keep

0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:44.160
<v Speaker 1>rolling guys through, Let's keep trying guys, Let's keep trying,

0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:48.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, Or maybe I'm completely wrong about this, Maybe

0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:50.880
<v Speaker 1>because dan Quinn kind of figured out that Micah Parsons

0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 1>win tank went down week two last year. Dan Quinn's like,

0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:57.360
<v Speaker 1>do you ever think this guy could rush the passer?

0:14:57.520 --> 0:15:00.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, and then now you see the legend of

0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Michael Parsons. Maybe he saw the same thing and Izzy,

0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:05.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe he saw like, listen, I'm just gonna

0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.120
<v Speaker 1>hold this guy and I'm gonna play it. But man,

0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:10.760
<v Speaker 1>how what a what a big moment we've seen? Is

0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:14.000
<v Speaker 1>he play really really well in training camp and get

0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:16.760
<v Speaker 1>opportunities and stuff, but not to this point. But if

0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:19.560
<v Speaker 1>you do believe in conspiracy theories, dan Quinn was holding

0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:22.320
<v Speaker 1>is he just not to show anybody what they had

0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:27.360
<v Speaker 1>there at corner and me personally the ball, the two

0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:31.000
<v Speaker 1>minute ball that went to roads down the sidelines. Yeah,

0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.400
<v Speaker 1>and he looks back inside him like, no, bro, that's

0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:36.400
<v Speaker 1>that's you. That's that's you you gotta run with. And

0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>we talked about what are his deficiencies. Yeah, can't run,

0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:43.360
<v Speaker 1>can't run, but but but he does do that. He's physical,

0:15:43.760 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 1>he knows things. I mean, he knows he can he

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:48.520
<v Speaker 1>can recognize things. I don't know if you can change

0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:50.880
<v Speaker 1>your packages all the time. But if you get into

0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:53.760
<v Speaker 1>a red zone, goal line situation, especially when they like

0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:55.880
<v Speaker 1>to run, why that means those corners are gonna have

0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.040
<v Speaker 1>to get up and hit. Plus he knows how to

0:15:58.040 --> 0:16:00.640
<v Speaker 1>switch off and things like that. He's recognizes. But you're right,

0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:03.880
<v Speaker 1>just one on one me versus you, that's not that's

0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:05.600
<v Speaker 1>not the game anymore. He doesn't have It's not like

0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Peterson, who's he's an older guy too, But Patrick

0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Peterson can still run. Terrence Newman could run. He probably

0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:13.400
<v Speaker 1>could run now, you know those guys. But when you

0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:17.440
<v Speaker 1>lose that, maybe maybe you get into a situation too.

0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:19.600
<v Speaker 1>Like Nick's talk about. It's a really good point on

0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.800
<v Speaker 1>his part, is you get into a red zone situation

0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:24.960
<v Speaker 1>where you have to be a physical guy, but the

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:28.040
<v Speaker 1>field shrinks and you don't have to extend you could

0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:30.960
<v Speaker 1>be physical, you could chase. That's the problem that I

0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.560
<v Speaker 1>worry about with San Francisco is how much man coverage

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:35.960
<v Speaker 1>are you gonna play because they will run you through

0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:39.000
<v Speaker 1>the forest, you know, I mean they will run through

0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:42.760
<v Speaker 1>They'll run you through kittle, use check, you know, debt,

0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 1>they'll run crossing, They'll run you through everybody. And these

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:49.040
<v Speaker 1>guys are so good at doing it. And then you

0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:51.960
<v Speaker 1>got a quarterback that just you know that kind of

0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:54.840
<v Speaker 1>thing saying Diggs and Duran Bland, those guys, it's gonna

0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:59.840
<v Speaker 1>they gotta tackle the physical. Yeah, he's a physical guy.

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:04.760
<v Speaker 1>Diggs is a really good corner um. But no dis

0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:08.760
<v Speaker 1>is capable. Is because we saw and I killed Diggs

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:12.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot for this, because I'm I'm from the old

0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:15.960
<v Speaker 1>krusty school of giving corners that tackle, you know, give

0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:19.199
<v Speaker 1>me the antoine windfields that you know, the old school,

0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:21.080
<v Speaker 1>give me, you know, give me those guys that come

0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:24.040
<v Speaker 1>up and hitch in stuff like that. And so then

0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:27.200
<v Speaker 1>you watched Diggs. We saw him in the Cincinnati game

0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 1>earlier this year. It was a third down play. He

0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:32.200
<v Speaker 1>tackles short for a fourth it's a fourth down play,

0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.480
<v Speaker 1>tackles short again, fourth down off the field. You know,

0:17:35.480 --> 0:17:38.720
<v Speaker 1>you're like, it's crossing, it's carrying the balls there, he's tackling.

0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:42.159
<v Speaker 1>It's when it's coming right at him that it's a

0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:45.240
<v Speaker 1>little bit of a oh, I'm not so sure about this. Yeah,

0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:48.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, yeah, Yeah, And that's the part that you

0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 1>have to worry about against the team like this that's

0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:54.360
<v Speaker 1>very physical. Yeah, they're gonna try to forty four seventy

0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:57.480
<v Speaker 1>one nineteen. All these guys are coming at you. Send

0:17:57.520 --> 0:17:59.320
<v Speaker 1>the tackle enough coming at him. Yeah, all right, let's

0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:00.760
<v Speaker 1>go and take our first. When we come back, we're

0:18:00.800 --> 0:18:03.520
<v Speaker 1>going to jump into the actual matchup. Got some questions

0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:06.480
<v Speaker 1>for you guys. Brian also got a little reconnaissance on again.

0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Somebody talked about. Yeah, awesome information on the Raiders and

0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:12.040
<v Speaker 1>how the Raiders were able to be successful offensively against

0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:13.280
<v Speaker 1>the seam. We'll talk about that when we come back.

0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:16.359

0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:19.040
<v Speaker 1>secure to jog in the cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the

0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:22.080

0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:27.080
<v Speaker 1>can run eighty miles per hour. But the good news

0:22:27.800 --> 0:22:31.359
<v Speaker 1>an answer? I mean, no, anyone you want Normandale, Normandale.

0:22:31.720 --> 0:22:34.240
<v Speaker 1>I was saying, that's it's at your favorite one. That's

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the first one, like Ted Lasso, Lege Dunlap, some slapshot,

0:22:38.560 --> 0:22:43.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean Morse, buttermaker. But that was a real guy, right, Yeah,

0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:53.639
<v Speaker 1>story story about that, but it was a question we

0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:57.680
<v Speaker 1>asked on the radio yesterday Normandale. Normandale, Yeah, can just

0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:01.520
<v Speaker 1>do a quick story. Go for it, especially since Chris

0:23:01.640 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>earlier he was showing me something some clip of this

0:23:05.240 --> 0:23:09.159
<v Speaker 1>favorite yelling at his kids. But anyways, Normandale. My favorite

0:23:09.160 --> 0:23:11.080
<v Speaker 1>part of the movie Hoosiers, which you probably have never seen.

0:23:12.280 --> 0:23:16.040
<v Speaker 1>He coaches Hoosiers play in a basketball team and he's

0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:18.320
<v Speaker 1>trying to set an example to his new team. Here

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:21.200
<v Speaker 1>they only have they only have like five kids and

0:23:21.800 --> 0:23:23.959
<v Speaker 1>on the team, and he keeps saying past the ball,

0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:25.680
<v Speaker 1>past the ball. This kid just jacks up his shot

0:23:25.760 --> 0:23:28.480
<v Speaker 1>all the time. So he's on the bench. I guess

0:23:28.480 --> 0:23:31.199
<v Speaker 1>they have six kids, and they found someone fouls out.

0:23:31.200 --> 0:23:32.440
<v Speaker 1>So he just goes in the game and he's like,

0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:35.800
<v Speaker 1>where are you going in the game. He's like sit down. No,

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:37.440
<v Speaker 1>He's like, we gotta have five. He's like, sit down.

0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:40.439
<v Speaker 1>And the coach comes over to the coach you need

0:23:40.520 --> 0:23:42.960
<v Speaker 1>one more and yeah, I'm the ref reff. Yeah you

0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:45.399
<v Speaker 1>need one more and he goes my team is on

0:23:45.520 --> 0:23:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the floor. This is a great moment in the movie.

0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Well fast forward what forty years, I'm coaching soccer. We're

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:56.000
<v Speaker 1>getting beat like eight to nothing. We got a kid

0:23:56.040 --> 0:23:57.600
<v Speaker 1>crying over here to his mom. We had another kid

0:23:57.640 --> 0:24:00.359
<v Speaker 1>in the bathroom. We're getting all this stuff, and another

0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:03.400
<v Speaker 1>kid just tried to punch another player on the team.

0:24:03.480 --> 0:24:06.480
<v Speaker 1>So he's getting reprimanded on his own team. Another team

0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:08.600
<v Speaker 1>that's a team he like takes a swing all that.

0:24:08.680 --> 0:24:11.200
<v Speaker 1>So he's getting talked to by the coach. We're a mess.

0:24:11.320 --> 0:24:13.280
<v Speaker 1>We only got like it's four on four, only got

0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:16.520
<v Speaker 1>three kids in the literally the exact same face. This

0:24:16.640 --> 0:24:19.600
<v Speaker 1>little like fifteen year old kid comes over as a

0:24:19.720 --> 0:24:22.399
<v Speaker 1>rafficals coach, you need one more. And I was like,

0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:24.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, I couldn't say floor, but I was like,

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:26.960
<v Speaker 1>our team is on the field, you know. And I

0:24:27.040 --> 0:24:29.880
<v Speaker 1>thought that was like the greatest moment. Nobody got this moment.

0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:32.680
<v Speaker 1>But I know because the red still like you understand

0:24:32.680 --> 0:24:38.520
<v Speaker 1>what I just said, Yeah, I want booing. That was

0:24:38.560 --> 0:24:42.440
<v Speaker 1>like our team is on the field. And he put

0:24:42.520 --> 0:24:45.720
<v Speaker 1>his hand in the air. Yeah yeah. And I was

0:24:45.760 --> 0:24:48.560
<v Speaker 1>like and I had I had the music in my

0:24:48.680 --> 0:24:50.920
<v Speaker 1>head going on. I think they scored again on it.

0:24:51.240 --> 0:24:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Whatever whatever we learned the lesson that day, what was it, Uh,

0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:58.280
<v Speaker 1>get Payla on your team, you know, like trying to

0:24:58.359 --> 0:25:01.000
<v Speaker 1>get like Ronaldo or something like that. You know, we didn't.

0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.359
<v Speaker 1>We don't have those kids, you know, play club soccer.

0:25:03.480 --> 0:25:05.719
<v Speaker 1>That's what you gotta do. Got Ambar's son coming up here,

0:25:05.760 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, right right, yeah, yeah, yeah, he's probably got

0:25:10.320 --> 0:25:13.720
<v Speaker 1>on the team exactly. All right, let's let's let's jump in.

0:25:13.880 --> 0:25:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's talk about this matchup. Brian, you were able

0:25:16.720 --> 0:25:18.800
<v Speaker 1>to talk some folks around the league that you deal

0:25:18.880 --> 0:25:21.440
<v Speaker 1>with about that Raiders games and some of the things

0:25:21.480 --> 0:25:24.200
<v Speaker 1>that they observed. Yeah, what what were you hearing? Well?

0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:27.359
<v Speaker 1>The thing about it was what this and we talked

0:25:27.400 --> 0:25:29.480
<v Speaker 1>about how you have to be able to block the front.

0:25:29.520 --> 0:25:32.120
<v Speaker 1>We talked about that yesterday. We talked about they don't

0:25:32.160 --> 0:25:34.119
<v Speaker 1>do a whole lot. You know, that's another thing that

0:25:34.200 --> 0:25:36.560
<v Speaker 1>they were talking about. There's people are saying, hey, if

0:25:36.560 --> 0:25:39.119
<v Speaker 1>you control the front and what you do is this

0:25:39.359 --> 0:25:42.760
<v Speaker 1>This coach told me, this is talking cowboys offense versus there. Yeah,

0:25:43.080 --> 0:25:45.280
<v Speaker 1>because of forty nine or defense, everybody seem to speak

0:25:45.280 --> 0:25:46.600
<v Speaker 1>worried how you're going to move the ball, how you

0:25:46.640 --> 0:25:48.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna you know, how you're gonna handle all that. There's

0:25:48.720 --> 0:25:50.520
<v Speaker 1>a whole nother thing. How you're trying to stop them.

0:25:50.640 --> 0:25:53.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's another day. But my guys were telling

0:25:53.440 --> 0:25:56.160
<v Speaker 1>me about this is if you're able to control their

0:25:56.240 --> 0:25:59.720
<v Speaker 1>front and making them blitz. They don't want to play

0:25:59.800 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 1>man coverage. They don't want to do that. They they

0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:06.040
<v Speaker 1>like playing in zone because it protects their guys. And

0:26:06.200 --> 0:26:08.480
<v Speaker 1>what this one coach was telling me about, he's like, listen,

0:26:09.400 --> 0:26:13.600
<v Speaker 1>he says. We could talk about Travarious Ward, and we

0:26:13.680 --> 0:26:16.880
<v Speaker 1>could also talk about Lenore or the other corner. He says,

0:26:16.920 --> 0:26:19.399
<v Speaker 1>But the guy you could take advantage of is Jimmy Ward,

0:26:19.480 --> 0:26:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the nickel number one. He says. Now, what teams have

0:26:23.119 --> 0:26:26.560
<v Speaker 1>been able to do is that you get him into

0:26:26.640 --> 0:26:29.480
<v Speaker 1>some matchups. He doesn't he of the guys that can

0:26:29.560 --> 0:26:32.600
<v Speaker 1>cover on the back, he's the one. Now the fun

0:26:32.680 --> 0:26:34.440
<v Speaker 1>of the safety is the one you want to try

0:26:34.440 --> 0:26:36.760
<v Speaker 1>and get your tight end on. That's the one, they say.

0:26:37.160 --> 0:26:40.080
<v Speaker 1>But they said also Ward out of the slot. He's

0:26:40.160 --> 0:26:42.960
<v Speaker 1>just not a custom even though he plays it, it's

0:26:43.040 --> 0:26:47.399
<v Speaker 1>not his favorite thing to do. So Kellen Moore CD,

0:26:47.960 --> 0:26:50.600
<v Speaker 1>think about how you want to maybe even if it

0:26:50.720 --> 0:26:53.359
<v Speaker 1>turns into t Y Hilton in there a little, there's

0:26:53.440 --> 0:26:57.240
<v Speaker 1>somebody that you feel like can win because Ward isn't

0:26:57.280 --> 0:27:00.760
<v Speaker 1>really comfortable having to carry guys that's not his scene.

0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:03.159
<v Speaker 1>But that's how they that's how they play man when

0:27:03.200 --> 0:27:04.719
<v Speaker 1>they comes on the field. If you get them an

0:27:04.720 --> 0:27:07.840
<v Speaker 1>eleven personnel, you know they're going to probably play man coverage.

0:27:07.880 --> 0:27:09.720
<v Speaker 1>It's something that they really really don't want to do.

0:27:10.040 --> 0:27:13.959
<v Speaker 1>So that was something attack attack, Jimmy Warden, this game

0:27:14.040 --> 0:27:16.680
<v Speaker 1>was something they said. Another thing they said is listen,

0:27:16.960 --> 0:27:19.520
<v Speaker 1>move your tight end and move your tight end. What

0:27:19.600 --> 0:27:22.520
<v Speaker 1>he said was they create bubbles. Like if you put

0:27:22.600 --> 0:27:25.399
<v Speaker 1>the tight end to the right side, they're going to

0:27:25.800 --> 0:27:28.520
<v Speaker 1>take that as that's the strength. That's where the ball's coming.

0:27:28.920 --> 0:27:31.240
<v Speaker 1>You move the tight endo the other side, you create

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 1>a bubble over there to run the ball. Apt So

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:35.480
<v Speaker 1>if you're going to run the ball in the forty

0:27:35.560 --> 0:27:38.080
<v Speaker 1>nine ers, run it at the bubble. Don't run it

0:27:38.200 --> 0:27:42.320
<v Speaker 1>where the tight end is, because that's they declared, that's

0:27:42.400 --> 0:27:44.400
<v Speaker 1>the strength. So if you move your what they call

0:27:44.480 --> 0:27:47.160
<v Speaker 1>the why or the tight end, you move your why,

0:27:47.800 --> 0:27:51.399
<v Speaker 1>then that creates bubbles in their defense that you can

0:27:51.480 --> 0:27:54.320
<v Speaker 1>potentially run the ball at so away from the tight end,

0:27:54.480 --> 0:27:56.520
<v Speaker 1>away from the tight end, but just you know, and

0:27:56.640 --> 0:27:59.359
<v Speaker 1>this and make that happen that way for that Yeah,

0:28:00.000 --> 0:28:02.639
<v Speaker 1>like the tight end's gonna he's not opening up a

0:28:02.640 --> 0:28:04.920
<v Speaker 1>whole lot of lanes blocking. Yeah, you know, well, that's

0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:08.840
<v Speaker 1>that's how you create you create space for yourself. Another

0:28:08.960 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>thing is you said you have to be really you

0:28:11.840 --> 0:28:16.439
<v Speaker 1>have to be really disciplined because their rush is up

0:28:16.520 --> 0:28:19.359
<v Speaker 1>the field that you say you the guy told me

0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:22.160
<v Speaker 1>he goes. Your quarterback has to be willing to run. Okay,

0:28:22.240 --> 0:28:24.560
<v Speaker 1>when we've seen Dak run a little bit, which is good,

0:28:24.960 --> 0:28:27.160
<v Speaker 1>it's good, but Dak Jerry was asked about that today.

0:28:27.240 --> 0:28:29.080
<v Speaker 1>It's you know, go run, go, do what you have

0:28:29.160 --> 0:28:31.480
<v Speaker 1>to do to go win this game. Their their rush

0:28:31.640 --> 0:28:34.200
<v Speaker 1>up the field is not it's almost like the Cowboys

0:28:34.280 --> 0:28:37.440
<v Speaker 1>rush not organized at times, it's get up the field,

0:28:37.520 --> 0:28:39.680
<v Speaker 1>sack you before you have a chance. But you have

0:28:39.880 --> 0:28:43.080
<v Speaker 1>guys that get maybe out of position. Dak has to

0:28:43.160 --> 0:28:45.200
<v Speaker 1>be willing to those times. When he gets back, he's

0:28:45.200 --> 0:28:47.040
<v Speaker 1>got to be willing to he sees a gap, just

0:28:47.240 --> 0:28:50.280
<v Speaker 1>charge it, go for it, get five, six, seven yards,

0:28:50.760 --> 0:28:52.480
<v Speaker 1>fight for another play. You know, but you got a

0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:56.200
<v Speaker 1>positive play, you didn't get sacked. So undisciplined rush, you

0:28:56.360 --> 0:28:58.280
<v Speaker 1>have to be disciplined enough to know that if you

0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:01.680
<v Speaker 1>see the gap, go for it, because that's your best opportunity.

0:29:02.320 --> 0:29:05.960
<v Speaker 1>To make things happen. Another thing this guy says is

0:29:06.080 --> 0:29:09.400
<v Speaker 1>your big plays are your toss crack plays where you

0:29:09.520 --> 0:29:12.440
<v Speaker 1>block down, get stuff on the perimeter. Those are good

0:29:12.440 --> 0:29:15.160
<v Speaker 1>plays against him. On things on the outside, he said,

0:29:15.200 --> 0:29:17.280
<v Speaker 1>you can't make a living running inside on these guys.

0:29:17.280 --> 0:29:19.320
<v Speaker 1>So everything on the outside is a good is good

0:29:19.400 --> 0:29:21.960
<v Speaker 1>for you. Another thing they said is really good is

0:29:22.000 --> 0:29:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the screens, especially the slip screens where you get back

0:29:25.160 --> 0:29:27.360
<v Speaker 1>and you just kind of slide him out. And I said,

0:29:27.400 --> 0:29:30.120
<v Speaker 1>this team's and run the screen since like nineteen eighty nine,

0:29:30.400 --> 0:29:32.680
<v Speaker 1>and he goes, He goes, yeah, I understand that, he goes.

0:29:33.120 --> 0:29:35.840
<v Speaker 1>The next best thing you do is run draws. Run draws,

0:29:35.880 --> 0:29:37.720
<v Speaker 1>because they come up the field and the Cowboys, we've

0:29:37.720 --> 0:29:40.360
<v Speaker 1>seen the Cowboys with the game. Dad takes it, hands

0:29:40.400 --> 0:29:42.800
<v Speaker 1>it to Pollard inside and then they attack everybody's up

0:29:42.840 --> 0:29:45.400
<v Speaker 1>the field and they break the They break the first

0:29:46.200 --> 0:29:48.760
<v Speaker 1>first wave and get into the second wave. So if

0:29:48.840 --> 0:29:53.280
<v Speaker 1>you can't run screens against these guys, the draws are really, really,

0:29:53.360 --> 0:29:55.520
<v Speaker 1>really a good a good way to attack them running

0:29:55.520 --> 0:29:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the football. He also said, in your drop back pa

0:30:00.000 --> 0:30:04.160
<v Speaker 1>a game, it's one two throw, one two throw, one

0:30:04.320 --> 0:30:06.480
<v Speaker 1>two throw. He says you don't want to you don't

0:30:06.480 --> 0:30:08.960
<v Speaker 1>want to turn this into like, let's say they're gonna play.

0:30:09.040 --> 0:30:13.040
<v Speaker 1>He called it a post zone postsone as means he's

0:30:13.080 --> 0:30:15.000
<v Speaker 1>got a safety in the middle field. It's like single high.

0:30:15.240 --> 0:30:18.080
<v Speaker 1>So you're either gonna get postsone or you're gonna get

0:30:18.120 --> 0:30:21.120
<v Speaker 1>what they call split zone, which is covered two. Okay,

0:30:21.400 --> 0:30:23.960
<v Speaker 1>so you know going in, that's what you're gonna see.

0:30:24.040 --> 0:30:26.320
<v Speaker 1>There's not gonna be anything. There's not gonna be the

0:30:26.440 --> 0:30:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Rob Ryan crazy exotic looks and stuff like that. Either

0:30:29.800 --> 0:30:31.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna get the single high look or the or the

0:30:32.000 --> 0:30:33.960
<v Speaker 1>two deep. And that's what he says. That's when you

0:30:34.040 --> 0:30:36.040
<v Speaker 1>got to go. It's gonna be one step, two step throw,

0:30:36.200 --> 0:30:38.520
<v Speaker 1>one step two step throw. He goes, that's how you're

0:30:38.520 --> 0:30:40.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna that's how you find a way to get plays

0:30:41.040 --> 0:30:42.920
<v Speaker 1>on these guys. So how do you make your big

0:30:43.000 --> 0:30:45.719
<v Speaker 1>plays downfield? If you're doing three step drops, typically you're

0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:47.720
<v Speaker 1>doing five seven stop step drops if you're trying to

0:30:47.720 --> 0:30:49.800
<v Speaker 1>go downfield. Yeah, that's the thing about it is, he said,

0:30:49.840 --> 0:30:52.800
<v Speaker 1>to get the ball, to continue to move the change,

0:30:52.840 --> 0:30:54.640
<v Speaker 1>you got to think about the one or two step drops.

0:30:55.040 --> 0:30:58.080
<v Speaker 1>When they're with the Raiders, they were thinking that for

0:30:58.240 --> 0:31:00.360
<v Speaker 1>what people what I was talking to about him was

0:31:00.680 --> 0:31:03.440
<v Speaker 1>they were thinking about they were able to, like I say,

0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:06.720
<v Speaker 1>block the front. They were able to like okay, man

0:31:06.800 --> 0:31:09.360
<v Speaker 1>on man and then it allowed their quarterback. Also when

0:31:09.360 --> 0:31:11.840
<v Speaker 1>you watch the tape, was Stiham was able to move

0:31:11.920 --> 0:31:14.160
<v Speaker 1>a little bit in the pocket. So that's where it

0:31:14.280 --> 0:31:17.479
<v Speaker 1>also comes to play. If somehow, some way Dallas can

0:31:17.560 --> 0:31:20.040
<v Speaker 1>hold up in this game. And I'll say, this is

0:31:20.080 --> 0:31:22.880
<v Speaker 1>my final thing to you, they can make plays on

0:31:22.960 --> 0:31:25.440
<v Speaker 1>the secondary that that is that is your best shot

0:31:25.560 --> 0:31:27.720
<v Speaker 1>to win this football game. It is going to be

0:31:27.720 --> 0:31:32.200
<v Speaker 1>about block and armstead Ken law Bosa. Uh. You know,

0:31:32.680 --> 0:31:35.120
<v Speaker 1>just somehow, some way you got to match that thing

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:38.480
<v Speaker 1>up across the front because the secondary that I feel

0:31:38.520 --> 0:31:40.520
<v Speaker 1>like me personally watching this tape and I asked this

0:31:40.640 --> 0:31:44.040
<v Speaker 1>guy said, I felt like that Philadelphia's defense was better

0:31:44.200 --> 0:31:48.280
<v Speaker 1>overall than what San Francisco's is. He says the fronts

0:31:48.320 --> 0:31:53.840
<v Speaker 1>are basically the same. He says, the secondaries aren't. Phillies

0:31:53.880 --> 0:31:56.280
<v Speaker 1>got a better secondary. So that's that's where some of

0:31:56.320 --> 0:31:59.880
<v Speaker 1>the things. But again the draw plays, the moving the

0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:03.200
<v Speaker 1>why and then the ability to like be not be

0:32:03.280 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 1>afraid to if the rush is up the field, take

0:32:05.360 --> 0:32:08.480
<v Speaker 1>the opportunity to go with it, and they do not

0:32:08.640 --> 0:32:10.640
<v Speaker 1>want to play man coverage, so you have to take

0:32:10.680 --> 0:32:13.320
<v Speaker 1>advantage of it when they do play man coverage. You know.

0:32:13.480 --> 0:32:16.200
<v Speaker 1>One thing you gotta remember too is is you know

0:32:16.280 --> 0:32:18.680
<v Speaker 1>when when you're facing new quarterbacks, you know, like the

0:32:18.760 --> 0:32:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Bengals had a hard time at first, you know, just

0:32:21.120 --> 0:32:24.160
<v Speaker 1>with with Rush and the Cowboys with Minshew and Cowboys

0:32:24.200 --> 0:32:26.840
<v Speaker 1>with Howel and and maybe forty nine ers was stid them,

0:32:26.880 --> 0:32:28.280
<v Speaker 1>you know because it was like those first start So

0:32:28.360 --> 0:32:31.800
<v Speaker 1>you kind of wonder sometimes if that is a if

0:32:31.880 --> 0:32:34.200
<v Speaker 1>that is a factor too, when that Stidham's first start

0:32:34.400 --> 0:32:37.840
<v Speaker 1>was so you know, they they they'll have a probably

0:32:37.880 --> 0:32:39.880
<v Speaker 1>a better read on Dak than they than they did

0:32:40.080 --> 0:32:42.920
<v Speaker 1>in that game too. So um but but yeah, that's

0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:44.800
<v Speaker 1>some that's some really good stuff too, because it kind

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:46.680
<v Speaker 1>of shows it seems like to me what you're saying

0:32:46.840 --> 0:32:48.920
<v Speaker 1>is the forty nine ers do what they do, yeah,

0:32:48.960 --> 0:32:50.640
<v Speaker 1>and they expect to just and by the way, when

0:32:50.640 --> 0:32:52.400
<v Speaker 1>you got that good players, you can do what you

0:32:52.800 --> 0:32:55.560
<v Speaker 1>see when we were talking about with Damiko, Ryan's the

0:32:55.680 --> 0:32:59.000
<v Speaker 1>defensive coordinator there. My buddies, other buddies I talked to

0:32:59.120 --> 0:33:02.160
<v Speaker 1>that played them. We're saying, listen, Demko will come up

0:33:02.200 --> 0:33:05.160
<v Speaker 1>with a package if he feels like you're better or

0:33:05.280 --> 0:33:08.040
<v Speaker 1>equal or better than them. But if you're a team

0:33:08.160 --> 0:33:12.480
<v Speaker 1>that they can kind of just out talent, yeah he'll

0:33:12.560 --> 0:33:15.120
<v Speaker 1>play you straight up. Yeah. Well, I wonder what how

0:33:15.280 --> 0:33:17.320
<v Speaker 1>what he feels about that then, because this is this

0:33:17.520 --> 0:33:19.360
<v Speaker 1>is probably close. This is probably the best team that

0:33:19.440 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 1>he's probably the best offense that he's faced really since

0:33:23.040 --> 0:33:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City. I would think, you know, you know, when

0:33:25.600 --> 0:33:28.400
<v Speaker 1>they beat Miami, Miami was kind of rolling a little

0:33:28.440 --> 0:33:30.120
<v Speaker 1>bit there. It was to a plan at that point.

0:33:30.520 --> 0:33:32.480
<v Speaker 1>He's been in and out so much. They just don't

0:33:32.480 --> 0:33:34.840
<v Speaker 1>know think the Dolphins had I didn't. Once again, the

0:33:34.920 --> 0:33:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Dolphins had a couple of bad games. They were in

0:33:37.000 --> 0:33:40.120
<v Speaker 1>that California trip. They got beat by the Chargers and

0:33:40.200 --> 0:33:42.760
<v Speaker 1>then they stayed behind or that it was vice versa.

0:33:42.800 --> 0:33:44.240
<v Speaker 1>It was they got beat by the forty nine ers

0:33:44.240 --> 0:33:46.840
<v Speaker 1>and lost the Chargers, or lost the Chargers and played

0:33:46.880 --> 0:33:48.840
<v Speaker 1>the forty nine ers. But it was two really bad

0:33:48.960 --> 0:33:51.280
<v Speaker 1>games for them offensively. Out there, all right, we're gonna

0:33:51.280 --> 0:33:52.720
<v Speaker 1>take our final break. We'll come back. We got some

0:33:52.840 --> 0:33:54.680
<v Speaker 1>questions from the fans. They've been sending them all week.

0:33:54.720 --> 0:33:56.560

<v Speaker 1>Welcome back, final segment of the Break Life in s

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:29.560
<v Speaker 1>WBC more each studios at the start. Let's get some

0:36:29.600 --> 0:36:31.799
<v Speaker 1>fan questions. They've been sending them in all week. Let's

0:36:31.800 --> 0:36:34.320
<v Speaker 1>get to it. We've got one first from j Stender.

0:36:34.960 --> 0:36:38.120
<v Speaker 1>He says, one of the biggest differences between these two

0:36:38.239 --> 0:36:41.640
<v Speaker 1>teams when they met a year ago to where they

0:36:41.680 --> 0:36:46.279
<v Speaker 1>are right now. Christian McCaffrey. Yeah, that that that trade

0:36:46.360 --> 0:36:49.080
<v Speaker 1>part of it. That trade made them that That's something

0:36:49.160 --> 0:36:51.719
<v Speaker 1>they absolutely had to do, you know, to get that done.

0:36:51.800 --> 0:36:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean they realized that they had you know, they

0:36:54.560 --> 0:36:57.960
<v Speaker 1>had good backs, but they also needed you know, here's

0:36:58.000 --> 0:37:01.160
<v Speaker 1>a dynamic back, here's a back that can catch. He's

0:37:01.239 --> 0:37:03.839
<v Speaker 1>perfect for what they do. It really really is. He's

0:37:03.880 --> 0:37:06.480
<v Speaker 1>so hard to stop just because you know, you could

0:37:06.520 --> 0:37:08.239
<v Speaker 1>put him out wide, you could you know, you put

0:37:08.320 --> 0:37:09.759
<v Speaker 1>him in the backfield to hand him the ball. I mean,

0:37:09.800 --> 0:37:11.640
<v Speaker 1>there's just so much you can do. He's just such

0:37:11.680 --> 0:37:14.400
<v Speaker 1>a hard guy to stop. I think from the Cowboys' perspective,

0:37:14.560 --> 0:37:17.600
<v Speaker 1>I think that they've they've figured out, you know, in

0:37:17.640 --> 0:37:21.120
<v Speaker 1>the off season they had to get Ceedee Lamb and

0:37:21.200 --> 0:37:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Tony Pollard a part of this offense and along with

0:37:24.480 --> 0:37:27.239
<v Speaker 1>some others, and Schultz is one of the others, and

0:37:27.400 --> 0:37:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Zeke has been one of the others. But those other

0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:34.080
<v Speaker 1>two guys are dynamic, and I don't think there's gonna

0:37:34.120 --> 0:37:37.440
<v Speaker 1>be one catch for twenty yards for Ceedee Lamb in

0:37:37.520 --> 0:37:39.719
<v Speaker 1>this game. I think he's gonna be a lot more

0:37:39.719 --> 0:37:41.400
<v Speaker 1>of a factor. I think Tony Pollard will be a

0:37:41.440 --> 0:37:43.800
<v Speaker 1>lot more of a factor. I think they've they've just

0:37:43.960 --> 0:37:47.520
<v Speaker 1>matured as an offense, even despite all the injuries. But

0:37:47.600 --> 0:37:49.320
<v Speaker 1>I also think too that they're going to be a

0:37:49.360 --> 0:37:51.520
<v Speaker 1>more physical team. I think that was a key. You

0:37:51.560 --> 0:37:53.880
<v Speaker 1>saw it in the draft. They had to get physical,

0:37:53.960 --> 0:37:56.319
<v Speaker 1>and they used that game as a benchmark to say,

0:37:56.520 --> 0:37:58.600
<v Speaker 1>we're not getting our ask, And do you think they are?

0:37:58.920 --> 0:38:00.680
<v Speaker 1>I do. I think there are more physical team. And

0:38:00.719 --> 0:38:02.760
<v Speaker 1>if they didn't like what was happening in defensive tackle,

0:38:03.000 --> 0:38:05.120
<v Speaker 1>they got a guy and they traded for Hankins. They

0:38:05.200 --> 0:38:08.280
<v Speaker 1>got Tyler Smith. Was he ready to play and debatable.

0:38:08.360 --> 0:38:11.319
<v Speaker 1>Could he bench press six hundred pounds? Yeah? And every

0:38:11.360 --> 0:38:13.320
<v Speaker 1>game he seemed to take out his anger on someone.

0:38:13.440 --> 0:38:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, did you see that play from his last

0:38:15.040 --> 0:38:17.960
<v Speaker 1>game he tosses defferent White. I mean, like every game

0:38:18.000 --> 0:38:20.360
<v Speaker 1>you'll see one of those where he gets into somebody

0:38:20.440 --> 0:38:23.520
<v Speaker 1>and just throws him. The fact that he's not being

0:38:23.640 --> 0:38:27.640
<v Speaker 1>mentioned for Rookie of the Year is ridiculous. And maybe

0:38:27.719 --> 0:38:29.840
<v Speaker 1>he will be because if you look at it, pretty

0:38:30.239 --> 0:38:32.560
<v Speaker 1>pretty might be in there too. He's only played a

0:38:32.640 --> 0:38:35.040
<v Speaker 1>handful of games, but it's been great. But I mean,

0:38:35.239 --> 0:38:38.279
<v Speaker 1>I think offensive linemen always get overlooked in that and

0:38:38.360 --> 0:38:40.640
<v Speaker 1>when you think about him playing guard tackle, guard, tackle,

0:38:40.680 --> 0:38:42.759
<v Speaker 1>back and forth, back and forth and playing it really well.

0:38:43.120 --> 0:38:46.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, his rookie season has been amazing. I think

0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:49.440
<v Speaker 1>that another thing that has changed. And I can't go

0:38:49.600 --> 0:38:53.320
<v Speaker 1>back to remember the exact number, but I think it

0:38:53.480 --> 0:38:56.560
<v Speaker 1>was Mica that was talking about it yesterday in regards

0:38:56.600 --> 0:38:59.839
<v Speaker 1>to penalties and you know, those type of mistakes. That's

0:39:00.000 --> 0:39:02.640
<v Speaker 1>something that Day've cleaned up. That was still a struggle

0:39:02.680 --> 0:39:05.239
<v Speaker 1>at the beginning of this season and towards the middle

0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:09.759
<v Speaker 1>of it, and they seemingly have cleaned that up on

0:39:09.920 --> 0:39:12.880
<v Speaker 1>both sides of the ball, defensively and on the offense.

0:39:13.040 --> 0:39:16.239
<v Speaker 1>So I think that's something that's gonna obviously helped them

0:39:16.440 --> 0:39:19.440
<v Speaker 1>in that regard. That has been quite the improvement compared

0:39:19.440 --> 0:39:22.239
<v Speaker 1>to how they were last year. Well that you're right

0:39:22.320 --> 0:39:25.000
<v Speaker 1>that game last year, that penalties were just unbelievable in

0:39:25.040 --> 0:39:27.759
<v Speaker 1>that game, Like Cedric Wilson had a huge penalty in

0:39:27.840 --> 0:39:30.560
<v Speaker 1>that game where had a nice, nice play. It was

0:39:30.600 --> 0:39:32.439
<v Speaker 1>like a twenty yard penal city block in the back

0:39:32.560 --> 0:39:35.120
<v Speaker 1>or something like that. And then Randy Gregory had, you know,

0:39:36.440 --> 0:39:40.000
<v Speaker 1>had some tough penalties on him, and so yeah, it's, uh,

0:39:40.400 --> 0:39:43.480
<v Speaker 1>you know that part of it's it's it's cleaned up clearly.

0:39:43.920 --> 0:39:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Uh you know that, Uh that from from what you

0:39:46.640 --> 0:39:49.200
<v Speaker 1>saw last year. Yeah, and but a part of it

0:39:49.320 --> 0:39:52.359
<v Speaker 1>too with penalties, and we think it's been cleaned up.

0:39:52.360 --> 0:39:54.839
<v Speaker 1>But if you can't block them, you're gonna hold them.

0:39:55.239 --> 0:39:57.600
<v Speaker 1>That's that's what happened. So I do wonder if this

0:39:57.719 --> 0:40:00.399
<v Speaker 1>offensive line is going to face a defensive line that's

0:40:00.400 --> 0:40:03.319
<v Speaker 1>aggressive that that this is gonna be a challenge to block.

0:40:03.680 --> 0:40:05.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, I know a lot of Collins had issues,

0:40:05.840 --> 0:40:08.319
<v Speaker 1>Connor Williams had issues, but I mean, these guys can

0:40:08.400 --> 0:40:11.279
<v Speaker 1>have issues too if they can't block him. There have

0:40:11.440 --> 0:40:14.480
<v Speaker 1>been times even recently that I feel that it's kind

0:40:14.480 --> 0:40:17.759
<v Speaker 1>of flipped a little bit to where they can drop penalties.

0:40:19.160 --> 0:40:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Last yeah, it didn't take. It took week ten. It

0:40:22.640 --> 0:40:24.880
<v Speaker 1>was against Green Bay the last time they drew a

0:40:25.000 --> 0:40:27.600
<v Speaker 1>holding call. But you know, it was like it was

0:40:27.719 --> 0:40:30.120
<v Speaker 1>last week they drew actually drew a holding call on

0:40:30.320 --> 0:40:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Donovan Smith, and you're kind of like about time, like

0:40:34.480 --> 0:40:36.760
<v Speaker 1>they hadn't drawn one for you know, for seven weeks.

0:40:37.360 --> 0:40:40.440
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, that's that's really you know, the thing

0:40:40.520 --> 0:40:43.520
<v Speaker 1>you have to Bill Vinovich is the official for this game.

0:40:43.600 --> 0:40:45.759
<v Speaker 1>He's the one that calls the least amount of penalis. Now.

0:40:45.760 --> 0:40:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I know it's an all star crew, but I guarantee

0:40:48.640 --> 0:40:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you Bill Vinovich is gonna walk in there with his

0:40:50.600 --> 0:40:53.279
<v Speaker 1>crew before the game and say, listen, if you see it,

0:40:53.440 --> 0:40:57.000
<v Speaker 1>call it. If you don't, I don't need any flax. Okay,

0:40:57.440 --> 0:40:59.560
<v Speaker 1>let's let these players decide it. Now. Is that good

0:40:59.600 --> 0:41:02.320
<v Speaker 1>for the Cowboys? It could be good for the Cowboys

0:41:02.360 --> 0:41:04.800
<v Speaker 1>if all of a sudden you're struggling with that front

0:41:05.080 --> 0:41:07.360
<v Speaker 1>and you're trying to you know, if they're holding Mica

0:41:07.640 --> 0:41:10.200
<v Speaker 1>then I get to hold Bosa, you know, or I

0:41:10.320 --> 0:41:12.959
<v Speaker 1>get to hold the defensive tackle. If they're holding my guys,

0:41:13.000 --> 0:41:16.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna hold you. But you know, that's that's where

0:41:16.280 --> 0:41:18.920
<v Speaker 1>you have to kind of end these games. I appreciate

0:41:19.000 --> 0:41:21.360
<v Speaker 1>officials that are gonna let you play, you know, And

0:41:21.560 --> 0:41:24.040
<v Speaker 1>I believe Bill Vinovitch is probably gonna tell his crew,

0:41:24.560 --> 0:41:26.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, you call it when you see it, but

0:41:27.000 --> 0:41:29.320
<v Speaker 1>if you don't, if you if you're not sure, you

0:41:29.480 --> 0:41:31.920
<v Speaker 1>keep that flag in your pocket. Let these players decide

0:41:31.960 --> 0:41:34.640
<v Speaker 1>the game. I don't know who that benefits. I don't

0:41:34.680 --> 0:41:37.359
<v Speaker 1>know who that benefits the most in that type of game.

0:41:37.680 --> 0:41:41.320
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it benefits the Cowboys because if you're thinking about

0:41:42.120 --> 0:41:44.799
<v Speaker 1>your offensive line, you know, and having to block. I mean,

0:41:45.120 --> 0:41:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I keep saying, hey, we got to block the front.

0:41:47.719 --> 0:41:49.919
<v Speaker 1>You gotta block the front. Well, maybe block the front

0:41:49.960 --> 0:41:52.560
<v Speaker 1>meets holding two, you know, and if you get away

0:41:52.640 --> 0:41:54.560
<v Speaker 1>with that, maybe I'll hope you make some plays. It

0:41:54.680 --> 0:41:57.200
<v Speaker 1>just feels to me like that game. It feels to

0:41:57.280 --> 0:41:59.799
<v Speaker 1>me like Dallas lost that game to San Francisco last year,

0:41:59.800 --> 0:42:02.080
<v Speaker 1>but three scores. That's the way it feels coming out

0:42:02.120 --> 0:42:05.239
<v Speaker 1>of that game, and we forget how close that game

0:42:05.480 --> 0:42:08.440
<v Speaker 1>was like Dallas was in position to be able to

0:42:08.600 --> 0:42:10.320
<v Speaker 1>to I mean that that was not a game that

0:42:10.440 --> 0:42:12.680
<v Speaker 1>was out of reach for them. And that's where I'm like,

0:42:13.040 --> 0:42:16.120
<v Speaker 1>if you even found a little bit more from somewhere. Now,

0:42:16.280 --> 0:42:19.120
<v Speaker 1>obviously Christian McCaffrey changes things that change it, yeah, but

0:42:19.239 --> 0:42:21.240
<v Speaker 1>but if you find a little bit more on offense

0:42:21.320 --> 0:42:25.280
<v Speaker 1>and defense, this is not an unbeatable team like Dallas

0:42:25.400 --> 0:42:27.880
<v Speaker 1>is not going in the face. This is not Ivan

0:42:27.960 --> 0:42:30.520
<v Speaker 1>Drago like this is this is a team that they

0:42:30.600 --> 0:42:34.080
<v Speaker 1>should be able to lost. He did lose, right exactly,

0:42:34.160 --> 0:42:36.040
<v Speaker 1>But on my point, it's like they can they could

0:42:36.120 --> 0:42:38.800
<v Speaker 1>beat this team. This is not a situation where this

0:42:39.000 --> 0:42:41.480
<v Speaker 1>team is so much better than Dallas. Oh it's even

0:42:41.520 --> 0:42:43.120
<v Speaker 1>so much better than they were last year. It just

0:42:43.239 --> 0:42:49.400
<v Speaker 1>felt like that this was to him. This be a

0:42:49.520 --> 0:42:51.640
<v Speaker 1>more man, this is him. This is one of those

0:42:51.719 --> 0:42:54.600
<v Speaker 1>times where I kind of feel like, if Dallas wins

0:42:54.719 --> 0:42:57.640
<v Speaker 1>this game, they're they're going to the super Bowl. Oh

0:42:57.680 --> 0:42:59.600
<v Speaker 1>my god, that they're going to find somebody pteet that

0:42:59.680 --> 0:43:01.759
<v Speaker 1>this more and it just makes me nervous, it makes

0:43:01.800 --> 0:43:05.640
<v Speaker 1>me sweat. But but I mean, you've played the Giants,

0:43:05.680 --> 0:43:08.320
<v Speaker 1>and you've played and I give the Giants a chance.

0:43:08.880 --> 0:43:11.680
<v Speaker 1>I do. I give the Giants a chance because they

0:43:11.719 --> 0:43:13.600
<v Speaker 1>were not even playing their guys in a game that

0:43:13.680 --> 0:43:16.839
<v Speaker 1>Philadelphia had to win and they lost by six. Yeah,

0:43:17.840 --> 0:43:20.960
<v Speaker 1>there's if you somehow, some way, if the football gods

0:43:21.040 --> 0:43:25.239
<v Speaker 1>smiled on you on on Saturday, I was saying, keep

0:43:25.320 --> 0:43:30.200
<v Speaker 1>coming up with fun. I'm late. I'm sorry, I'm but

0:43:30.360 --> 0:43:33.760
<v Speaker 1>that's yeah, it's just to me, it's you're right. I'll

0:43:33.760 --> 0:43:35.200
<v Speaker 1>tell you what if the Giants go out there and

0:43:35.560 --> 0:43:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the best motivation you could have going into this game

0:43:39.239 --> 0:43:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Sunday is if the Giants do win this football game.

0:43:42.120 --> 0:43:44.719
<v Speaker 1>But that that's to know that you could host the

0:43:44.840 --> 0:43:48.680
<v Speaker 1>NFC Championship game against that against and the Giants. Trust me,

0:43:48.800 --> 0:43:50.680
<v Speaker 1>that Giants have gotten a lout there. But you know,

0:43:51.480 --> 0:43:53.920
<v Speaker 1>if you win this game, you're host. Like the forty

0:43:54.000 --> 0:43:56.560
<v Speaker 1>nine ers will also have that motivation too, knowing that

0:43:56.680 --> 0:43:59.280
<v Speaker 1>they will host this. And you know, I'm talking about

0:43:59.320 --> 0:44:04.680
<v Speaker 1>my motivation, but I don't care about the forty. In

0:44:04.800 --> 0:44:07.640
<v Speaker 1>my mind, I keep thinking if this is the Cowboys year,

0:44:08.160 --> 0:44:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I think it's going to be. They're gonna have to

0:44:09.960 --> 0:44:12.360
<v Speaker 1>go hard route. I don't think they will get any breaks.

0:44:12.400 --> 0:44:14.879
<v Speaker 1>Because you're talking about it all the time. Brian, Yeah,

0:44:14.920 --> 0:44:17.520
<v Speaker 1>it seems allergic to prosperity. They are. I think I

0:44:17.640 --> 0:44:20.319
<v Speaker 1>think the more things are stacked against them the better.

0:44:20.640 --> 0:44:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Like I want them to have to go play San Francisco.

0:44:22.960 --> 0:44:24.640
<v Speaker 1>I want them to have to go to Philadelphia and

0:44:24.640 --> 0:44:27.399
<v Speaker 1>play Philadelphia. I want them to have to play Kansas City.

0:44:27.440 --> 0:44:29.719
<v Speaker 1>If they're gonna do it, it's everything that's against what

0:44:29.840 --> 0:44:31.840
<v Speaker 1>we believe. I've gotten in trouble for saying that. No,

0:44:31.920 --> 0:44:33.440
<v Speaker 1>but I'm just saying, like, if they're gonna do it,

0:44:33.520 --> 0:44:36.920
<v Speaker 1>we talk about injuries. Yeah, I know right, I tell

0:44:37.040 --> 0:44:40.520
<v Speaker 1>you what, man, imagine that on one on five dot three,

0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:42.440
<v Speaker 1>because they would have been putting that all over like

0:44:42.640 --> 0:44:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Dallas Cowboys officials. I'm not gonna lie. I'm surprised you

0:44:46.760 --> 0:44:49.279
<v Speaker 1>guys have me on today, to be honestly, but you know,

0:44:49.520 --> 0:44:51.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm not wishing though, I'm not wishing for injuries.

0:44:52.200 --> 0:44:54.400
<v Speaker 1>And I know exactly the only thing, the only thing

0:44:54.440 --> 0:44:56.840
<v Speaker 1>that ever stopped that guy from being a great player

0:44:57.040 --> 0:44:59.279
<v Speaker 1>was an injury. Is an injury. That's the only thing

0:44:59.360 --> 0:45:02.160
<v Speaker 1>that ever you know, anybody else ever wishing for an injury.

0:45:02.160 --> 0:45:03.800
<v Speaker 1>It was it was just tongue in cheeking. No, no,

0:45:03.920 --> 0:45:06.080
<v Speaker 1>it absolutely was. I am not. But I am the

0:45:06.200 --> 0:45:09.319
<v Speaker 1>number one villain in Sanfordshire right now. Good good thing

0:45:09.360 --> 0:45:12.440
<v Speaker 1>you're not having to travel out there. This ye have interesting?

0:45:12.640 --> 0:45:15.320
<v Speaker 1>All right, here we go. Let's get some predictions. What

0:45:15.400 --> 0:45:17.239
<v Speaker 1>do you guys thinks gonna happen this weekend? Nicko, let's

0:45:17.239 --> 0:45:22.040
<v Speaker 1>start with you. Well, I m I'll say this if

0:45:22.120 --> 0:45:24.560
<v Speaker 1>if I'm if I'm dan Quinn. What I would do, though,

0:45:24.840 --> 0:45:28.440
<v Speaker 1>is is Trent Williams plays left tackle, I'm putting Michael

0:45:28.480 --> 0:45:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Parsons over there, and I'm gonna run right at him

0:45:31.520 --> 0:45:33.440
<v Speaker 1>on the first play of the game. If he's stone

0:45:33.480 --> 0:45:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Wall Jackson. You know, Parsons, no one's gonna say anything

0:45:36.840 --> 0:45:39.719
<v Speaker 1>like cool. He's got sixty more other rushes to get home.

0:45:40.400 --> 0:45:42.800
<v Speaker 1>If he beats him, if he gets by him and

0:45:42.920 --> 0:45:45.279
<v Speaker 1>gets to Purdy and makes a play or whatever. That

0:45:45.480 --> 0:45:47.719
<v Speaker 1>right there could set the tone for everything. My best,

0:45:48.000 --> 0:45:50.879
<v Speaker 1>your best, I just beat you, and now we're gonna

0:45:50.880 --> 0:45:53.480
<v Speaker 1>be here all day. I mean that's what I would do.

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Now do you keep him over there? If it doesn't work, oh,

0:45:55.600 --> 0:45:57.360
<v Speaker 1>move him around whatever. But I think you got to

0:45:57.400 --> 0:45:59.160
<v Speaker 1>do something to set the tone. Set the tone there,

0:45:59.239 --> 0:46:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Set the tone with a deep ball. Put Turpin in

0:46:01.120 --> 0:46:03.800
<v Speaker 1>to throw it deep, t y something, show him that

0:46:03.880 --> 0:46:09.600
<v Speaker 1>we're here to win this this game. I think, yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:46:10.960 --> 0:46:13.480
<v Speaker 1>But I agree. I know what. Yeah, hit him right

0:46:13.520 --> 0:46:15.359
<v Speaker 1>in the mouth. Hit him, hit him right in the mouth.

0:46:15.400 --> 0:46:16.880
<v Speaker 1>You have to. That's the only way you're gonna do it.

0:46:16.920 --> 0:46:18.600
<v Speaker 1>You got hit in the mouth last year. What do

0:46:18.680 --> 0:46:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I think is gonna happen? I think this is going

0:46:21.080 --> 0:46:23.000
<v Speaker 1>to be really tough for the Cowboys to win, I

0:46:23.080 --> 0:46:25.880
<v Speaker 1>really do. But I'm picking them to win because, as

0:46:25.960 --> 0:46:29.640
<v Speaker 1>I said on the radio this morning, it's about freaking

0:46:29.719 --> 0:46:32.080
<v Speaker 1>time that you and I go to the NFC Championship

0:46:32.160 --> 0:46:35.080
<v Speaker 1>game and we're gonna I can't even do this without talking.

0:46:35.120 --> 0:46:38.080
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna freaking go to the NFC Championship Game. So

0:46:38.440 --> 0:46:41.239
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys are gonna win twenty seven twenty three, all right?

0:46:41.280 --> 0:46:43.680
<v Speaker 1>And I can't believe I didn't just throw any words

0:46:43.719 --> 0:46:49.000
<v Speaker 1>out there. You almost did a few times. Amber Um.

0:46:49.800 --> 0:46:51.799
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm going with my heart with this one,

0:46:52.200 --> 0:46:56.600
<v Speaker 1>And I think sometimes that I've suffered long enough. But

0:46:56.680 --> 0:47:00.680
<v Speaker 1>then I think of the people like you and the

0:47:00.880 --> 0:47:04.879
<v Speaker 1>fans that have been with the Cowboys since their last

0:47:04.920 --> 0:47:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl and I think, yeah, definitely, it's freaking long enough.

0:47:09.000 --> 0:47:12.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how people have stand that long. But

0:47:13.360 --> 0:47:15.480
<v Speaker 1>I do think the Cowboys actually have a chance to

0:47:15.560 --> 0:47:18.480
<v Speaker 1>win this game. I don't see it impossible whatsoever. I

0:47:18.600 --> 0:47:22.120
<v Speaker 1>think that there are certain things that it's not preferred.

0:47:22.320 --> 0:47:24.719
<v Speaker 1>You're going against the team that's pretty healthy and has

0:47:24.760 --> 0:47:26.839
<v Speaker 1>a lot of talent on both sides of the ball,

0:47:27.200 --> 0:47:28.879
<v Speaker 1>and it's gonna be a tough one. But I think

0:47:28.960 --> 0:47:31.919
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys do manage and find a way to win.

0:47:32.520 --> 0:47:35.919
<v Speaker 1>I think Dan Quinn will be able to just create

0:47:36.000 --> 0:47:39.800
<v Speaker 1>some pressure and not make it that easy on those guys,

0:47:39.920 --> 0:47:43.000
<v Speaker 1>and the Cowboys offense they'll manage to score some points

0:47:43.080 --> 0:47:46.719
<v Speaker 1>as well. Hopefully Dak has the same focus and mentality

0:47:46.880 --> 0:47:50.200
<v Speaker 1>that he did against Tampa, and they're gonna score some points.

0:47:50.280 --> 0:47:53.120
<v Speaker 1>I do trust in brand Mohart getting those kicks right

0:47:53.520 --> 0:47:59.000
<v Speaker 1>this week, So yeah, they win, and I do see

0:47:59.040 --> 0:48:01.840
<v Speaker 1>it a close, one, high scoring game, though I would

0:48:01.840 --> 0:48:07.120
<v Speaker 1>say something like thirty seven thirty five Cowboys. Yeah. I

0:48:07.239 --> 0:48:09.080
<v Speaker 1>like what annber saying. I think I do. I think

0:48:09.120 --> 0:48:11.120
<v Speaker 1>it comes down to a Brett Maher field goal, and

0:48:11.160 --> 0:48:14.400
<v Speaker 1>I think the Dallas wins thirty one twenty eight, and

0:48:14.520 --> 0:48:16.799
<v Speaker 1>I actually also think similar thing. I think it's gonna

0:48:16.800 --> 0:48:18.719
<v Speaker 1>be a high scoring game. I think it's gonna be

0:48:18.719 --> 0:48:21.400
<v Speaker 1>an overtime game. I think they're gonna get and I

0:48:21.520 --> 0:48:24.560
<v Speaker 1>think no, and but here's the deal, but he's shot.

0:48:24.800 --> 0:48:26.720
<v Speaker 1>I think it's gonna be overtime. But I think Cowboys

0:48:26.800 --> 0:48:29.600
<v Speaker 1>win with a Brett Maher field goal. Thirty four thirty

0:48:29.640 --> 0:48:33.040
<v Speaker 1>one is your final score in overtime and Dallas moves on.

0:48:33.400 --> 0:48:37.799
<v Speaker 1>My heart cannot handle overtime. That works because you're gonna

0:48:37.840 --> 0:48:40.960
<v Speaker 1>be out, yeahs, gonna be punching guys to be on

0:48:41.040 --> 0:48:42.600
<v Speaker 1>the field. You guys be on the field at the

0:48:42.719 --> 0:48:44.920
<v Speaker 1>end for that one, right. We might yeah, yeah, we

0:48:45.120 --> 0:48:47.640
<v Speaker 1>might be for that one out. Yeah. Just remember what

0:48:47.760 --> 0:48:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I used to say when it's over right, Oh yeah,

0:48:50.520 --> 0:48:51.880
<v Speaker 1>we'll give it here. I want you to turn to

0:48:51.880 --> 0:48:54.880
<v Speaker 1>those sand for that game. If it works out like

0:48:55.040 --> 0:48:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I want. Yet, he turned in Amber. Take a video

0:48:57.640 --> 0:49:00.399
<v Speaker 1>of him saying it. No, Sam, No, not with that video.

0:49:00.480 --> 0:49:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to see this video on video. I up

0:49:03.000 --> 0:49:04.759
<v Speaker 1>with that on video. But I will definitely do it.

0:49:04.840 --> 0:49:11.919
<v Speaker 1>If if no, you gotta yellow at him, you gotta

0:49:12.000 --> 0:49:14.240
<v Speaker 1>let him know, all right, man, we'll see what happens

0:49:14.280 --> 0:49:16.080

0:49:16.080 --> 0:49:17.759
<v Speaker 1>be a fun game. Let's have some fun out there

0:49:17.800 --> 0:49:20.880
<v Speaker 1>in San Francisco. Hopefully the cow Cowboys come back victorious.

0:49:20.920 --> 0:49:22.239
<v Speaker 1>We'll be back on Monday. We'll let you know what

0:49:22.320 --> 0:49:24.840
